1 Sama’ila 10
1 Sai Sama’ila ya ɗauki’yar kwalabar mai, ya zuba man ɗin wa Shawulu a kansa, ya yi masa sumba yana cewa, “Ubangiji ya keɓe ka shugaba bisa gādonsa.
And Samuel taketh the vial of the oil, and poureth on his head, and kisseth him, and saith, 'Is it not because Jehovah hath appointed thee over His inheritance for leader?
2 Sa’ad da ka rabu da ni yau, za ka sadu da mutum biyu kusa da kabarin Rahila a Zelza, a yankin Benyamin. Za su ce maka, ‘An sami jakunan da ka fita nema, yanzu haka mahaifinka ya bar damuwa kan jakunan ya koma damuwa a kanka, yana cewa, yaya zan gan ɗana?’
In thy going to-day from me — then thou hast found two men by the grave of Rachel, in the border of Benjamin, at Zelzah, and they have said unto thee, The asses have been found which thou hast gone to seek; and lo, thy father hath left the matter of the asses, and hath sorrowed for you, saying, What do I do for my son?
3 “Sa’an nan za ka ci gaba daga nan sai ka kai wajen babban itace na Tabor. Waɗansu mutum uku za su sadu da kai a hanyarsu zuwa wurin yin wa Allah sujada a Betel. Ɗaya yana ɗauke da’yan awaki uku, ɗaya yana ɗauke da burodi uku, ɗayan kuma yana ɗauke da salkar ruwan inabi.
'And thou hast passed on thence, and beyond, and hast come in unto the oak of Tabor, and found thee there have three men going up unto God to Beth-El, one bearing three kids, and one bearing three cakes of bread, and one bearing a bottle of wine,
4 Za su gaishe ka, su ba ka burodi biyu, kai kuwa sai ka karɓa.
and they have asked of thee of welfare, and given to thee two loaves, and thou hast received from their hand.
5 “Bayan wannan, za ka tafi Gebiya ta Allah, inda sansanin Filistiyawa yake. Kana shiga garin, za ka sadu da jerin gwanon annabawa suna gangarowa daga tudu, ana kaɗa garaya, ana bugan ganguna, ana hura sarewa, ana kuma bugan molo, a gabansu, su kuma za su yi ta annabci.
'Afterwards thou dost come unto the hill of God, where the garrison of the Philistines [is], and it cometh to pass, at thy coming in thither to the city, that thou hast met a band of prophets coming down from the high place, and before them psaltery, and tabret, and pipe, and harp, and they are prophesying;
6 Ruhun Ubangiji zai sauko a kanka da iko, za ka kuma yi annabci tare da su. Za a canja ka ka zama dabam.
and prospered over thee hath the Spirit of Jehovah, and thou hast prophesied with them, and hast been turned to another man;
7 Da zarar waɗannan alamu sun cika, sai ka aikata duk abin da kana iya yi gama Allah yana tare da kai.
and it hath been, when these signs come to thee — do for thyself as thy hand findeth, for God [is] with thee.
8 “Ka sha gabana zuwa Gilgal. Lalle zan gangara wurinka domin in miƙa hadaya ta ƙonawa da hadayu na salama. Sai ka jira ni kwana bakwai sai na zo wurinka na kuma gaya maka abin da za ka yi.”
'And thou hast gone down before me to Gilgal, and lo, I am going down unto thee, to cause to ascend burnt-offerings, to sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings; seven days thou dost wait till my coming in unto thee, and I have made known to thee that which thou dost do.'
9 Da Shawulu ya juya zai bar Sama’ila, sai Allah ya canja wa Shawulu zuciya, alamun nan kuwa suka cika a ranar.
And it hath been, at his turning his shoulder to go from Samuel, that God turneth to him another heart, and all these signs come on that day,
10 Da suka iso Gibeya, jerin gwanon annabawa suka sadu da shi Ruhun Allah kuma ya sauko a kansa da iko, sai ya shiga yin annabci tare da su.
and they come in thither to the height, and lo, a band of prophets — to meet him, and prosper over him doth the Spirit of God, and he prophesieth in their midst.
11 Sa’ad da dukan waɗanda suka san shi a dā suka gan shi yana annabci tare da annabawa, sai suka tambayi juna, suka ce, “Me ya faru da ɗan Kish? Shawulu ma yana cikin annabawa ne?”
And it cometh to pass, all his acquaintance heretofore, see, and lo, with prophets he hath prophesied, and the people say one unto another, 'What [is] this hath happened to the son of Kish? is Saul also among the prophets?'
12 Wani mutumin da yake zama a can ya ce, “Wane ne kuma mahaifinsu?” Ta haka sai wannan ya zama karin magana cewa, “Shawulu ma yana cikin annabawa?”
And a man thence answereth and saith, 'And who [is] their father?' therefore it hath been for a simile, 'Is Saul also among the prophets?'
13 Bayan da Shawulu ya gama annabci sai ya haura ya tafi tudu.
And he ceaseth from prophesying, and cometh in to the high place,
14 Sai ɗan’uwan mahaifin Shawulu ya tambaye shi da baransa ya ce, “Ina kuka je?” Shawulu ya ce, “Mun tafi neman jakuna, amma da ba mu same su ba sai muka tafi wurin Sama’ila.”
and the uncle of Saul saith unto him, and unto his young man, 'Whither went ye?' and he saith, 'To seek the asses; and we see that they are not, and we come in unto Samuel.'
15 Ɗan’uwan mahaifin Shawulu ya ce, “Faɗa mini abin da Sama’ila ya ce maka.”
And the uncle of Saul saith, 'Declare, I pray thee, to me, what Samuel said to you?'
16 Shawulu ya ce, “Ya tabbatar mana cewa an riga an sami jakuna.” Amma bai gaya wa ɗan’uwan mahaifinsa abin da Sama’ila ya ce game da sarauta ba.
And Saul saith unto his uncle, 'He certainly declared to us that the asses were found;' and of the matter of the kingdom he hath not declared to him that which Samuel said.
17 Sama’ila ta tattara mutanen Isra’ila a gaban Ubangiji a Mizfa
And Samuel calleth the people unto Jehovah to Mizpeh,
18 ya ce musu, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce, ‘Na fito da Isra’ila daga Masar, na kuma cece ku daga hannun Masarawa da dukan mulkokin da suka wahalshe ku.’
and saith unto the sons of Israel, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, I have brought up Israel out of Egypt, and I deliver you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms who are oppressing you;
19 Amma yanzu kun ƙi Allahnku wanda ya cece ku daga dukan masifu da wahaloli. Kuka ce, ‘Sam, a naɗa mana sarki.’ Saboda haka yanzu sai ku zo gaban Ubangiji kabila-kabila da iyali-iyali.”
and ye to-day have rejected your God, who [is] Himself your saviour out of all your evils and your distresses, and ye say, 'Nay, but — a king thou dost set over us; and now, station yourselves before Jehovah, by your tribes, and by your thousands.'
20 Sa’ad da Sama’ila ya kawo dukan Isra’ila gaba, kabila-kabila, sai aka zaɓi kabilar Benyamin ta wurin jefa ƙuri’a.
And Samuel bringeth near the whole tribes of Israel, and the tribe of Benjamin is captured,
21 Sai ya kawo kabilar Benyamin gaba, iyali-iyali, aka zaɓi iyalin Matri. A ƙarshe aka zaɓi Shawulu ɗan Kish. Amma da aka neme shi sai ba a same shi ba.
and he bringeth near the tribe of Benjamin by its families, and the family of Matri is captured, and Saul son of Kish is captured, and they seek him, and he hath not been found.
22 Suka ƙara nemi bayani daga Ubangiji suka ce, “Mutumin ya zo nan kuwa?” Ubangiji ya ce, “I, ga shi can, ya ɓuya cikin kayayyaki.”
And they ask again at Jehovah, 'Hath the man yet come hither?' and Jehovah saith, 'Lo, he hath been hidden near the vessels.'
23 Suka ruga suka kawo shi. Da ya tsaya cikin mutane, sai ya fi kowa tsayi.
And they run and bring him thence, and he stationed himself in the midst of the people, and he is higher than any of the people from his shoulder and upward.
24 Sama’ila ya ce wa dukan mutane, “Kun ga wanda Ubangiji ya zaɓa ko? Ba wani kamar sa a cikin dukan mutane.” Sai mutane suka tā da murya suka ce, “Ran sarki yă daɗe.”
And Samuel saith unto all the people, 'Have ye seen him on whom Jehovah hath fixed, for there is none like him among all the people?' And all the people shout, and say, 'Let the king live!'
25 Sama’ila kuwa ya bayyana wa mutane ƙa’idodin sarauta. Ya rubuta su cikin littafi ya ajiye a gaban Ubangiji. Sa’an nan ya sallame mutane, kowa ya koma gidansa.
And Samuel speaketh unto the people the right of the kingdom, and writeth in a book, and placeth before Jehovah; and Samuel sendeth all the people away, each to his house.
26 Shawulu ma ya tafi gidansa a Gibeya tare da waɗansu jarumawan da Allah ya taɓa zuciyarsu.
And also Saul hath gone to his house, to Gibeah, and the force go with him whose heart God hath touched;
27 Amma waɗansu’yan iska suka ce, “Yaya wannan mutum zai iya cetonmu?” Suka rena shi suka ƙi su kawo masa kyautai. Amma Shawulu bai ce uffam ba.
and the sons of worthlessness have said, 'What! this one doth save us!' and they despise him, and have not brought to him a present; and he is as one deaf.
