1 Sama’ila 17
1 To, fa, Filistiyawa suka tattara mayaƙansu suka haɗu a Soko cikin Yahuda domin yaƙi. Suka yi sansani a Efes-Dammim, tsakanin Soko da Azeka.
And the Philistines gather their armies to battle, and gather themselves to Socchoth of Judaea, and encamp between Socchoth and Azeca Ephermen.
2 Shawulu da Isra’ilawa suka taru suka yi sansani a Kwarin Ela suka ja dāgā don su yi yaƙi da Filistiyawa.
And Saul and the men of Israel gather together, and they encamp in the valley, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.
3 Filistiyawa suka zauna a tudu guda, Isra’ilawa kuma suka zauna a ɗaya tudun. Kwari yana a tsakaninsu.
And the Philistines stand on the mountain on one side, and Israel stands on the mountain on the other side, and the valley was between them.
4 Wani jarumin da ake kira Goliyat wanda ya fito daga Gat, ya fita daga sansanin Filistiyawa. Tsawonsa ya fi ƙafa tara.
And there went forth a mighty man out of the army of the Philistines, Goliath, by name, out of Geth, his height [was] four cubits and a span.
5 Ya sa hular kwanon da aka yi da tagulla, da rigar ƙarfe mai sulke, nauyin rigar ya kai shekel dubu biyar.
And [he had] a helmet upon his head, and he wore a breastplate of chain armour; and the weight of his breastplate [was] five thousand shekels of brass and iron.
6 A ƙafafunsa kuwa ya sa ƙarafar tagulla, rataye a bayansa kuma māshi ne na tagulla.
And greaves of grass [were] upon his legs, and a brazen target [was] between his shoulders.
7 Ƙotar kibiyarsa kuwa kamar sandar saƙar igiya take, ƙarfen kibiyar kuma nauyinsa ya kai shekel ɗari shida. Mai riƙe masa garkuwa yana tafe a gabansa.
And the staff of his spear [was] like a weaver's beam, and the spear's head [was formed] of six hundred shekels of iron; and his armour-bearer went before him.
8 Goliyat ya tsaya ya tā da murya wa hafsoshin Isra’ila ya ce, “Me ya sa kuka fito kuna layi don yaƙi? Ni ba Bafilistin ba ne? Ku kuma ba bayin Shawulu ba ne? Ku zaɓi waninku yă zo nan.
And he stood and cried to the army of Israel, and said to them, Why are ye come forth to set yourselves in battle array against us? Am not I a Philistine, and ye Hebrews of Saul? Choose for yourselves a man, and let him come down to me.
9 In zai iya yin faɗa har yă kashe ni, to, za mu zama bayinku. Amma in na fi ƙarfinsa na kashe shi, to, sai ku zama bayinmu, ku kuma yi mana bauta.”
And if he shall be able to fight against me, and shall smite me, then will we be your servants: but if I should prevail and smite him, ye shall be our servants, and serve us.
10 Sai Bafilistin ya ce, “A wannan rana, na kalubalanci sojojin Isra’ila, ku ba ni mutum ɗaya mu yi faɗa.”
And the Philistine said, Behold, I have defied the armies of Israel this very day: give me a man, and we will both of us fight in single combat.
11 Da jin maganganun Bafilistin, sai Shawulu da dukan Isra’ila suka damu suka kuma ji tsoro.
And Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, and they were dismayed, and greatly terrified.
12 To, Dawuda dai ɗan wani mutumin Efratawa ne mai suna Yesse, shi mutumin Betlehem ne a cikin Yahudiya. Yesse yana da yara maza takwas, a zamanin Shawulu kuwa, Yesse ya riga ya tsufa.
[And David son of an Ephrathite said, this Eplarathite was of Bethleem Juda, and his name was Jessae, and he had eight sons. And the man passed for an old man among men in the days of Saul. ]
13 Manyan’ya’yansa maza uku, sun bi Shawulu wajen yaƙi. Ɗansa na fari shi ne Eliyab, na biyu shi ne Abinadab, na uku kuwa shi ne Shamma.
[And the three elder sons of Jessae went and followed Saul to the war, and the ] [names of his sons that went to the war were, Eliab his first-born, and his second Aminadab, and his third son Samma. ]
14 Dawuda shi ne ɗan autansu. Manyan’yan mazan nan uku suka bi Shawulu.
[And David himself ] [was the younger son, and the three elder followed Saul. ]
15 Amma Dawuda yakan tafi sansanin Shawulu lokaci-lokaci yă kuma koma Betlehem don yă yi kiwon tumakin mahaifinsa.
[And David departed and returned from Saul, ] [to feed his father’s sheep in Bethleem; ]
16 Kwana arba’in cif, Bafilistin nan ya yi ta fitowa kowane safe da kuma kowace yamma.
[And the Philistine advanced morning and evening, and stood up forty days. ]
17 Yesse ya ce wa ɗansa Dawuda, “Ka ɗauki wannan gasasshen hatsi da waɗannan curin burodi goma, ka kai wa’yan’uwanka a sansani da sauri.
[And Jessae said to David, Take now to thy brethren an ephah of this meal, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp and give them to thy brothers. ]
18 Ka haɗa da waɗannan cuku guda goma, ka kai wa komandan rundunarsu. Ka ga lafiyar’yan’uwanka, ka kawo mini labari daga wurinsu.
[And thou shalt carry to the captain of the thousand ] [these ten cheeses of milk, and thou shalt see how thy brethren fare, and learn what they want. ]
19 Suna tare da Shawulu da kuma dukan mutanen Isra’ila a Kwarin Ela, suna can suna yaƙi da Filistiyawa.”
[And Saul himself and all the men of Israel were in the valley of the Oak, warring with the Philistines. ]
20 Kashegari da sassafe, Dawuda ya tashi ya bar tumakinsa wa wani yă lura da su, sai ya ɗauki kayansa, ya kama hanya kamar yadda Yesse ya umarce shi. Ya isa sansanin daidai sa’ad da rundunar tana fitowa zuwa bakin dāgā, suna kirarin yaƙi.
[And David rose early in the morning, and left the sheep to a keeper, and took and went as Jessae commanded him, and he came to the trench and to the army as it was going out to fight, and they shouted for the battle. ]
21 Isra’ila da Filistiyawa suka ja dāgā suna fuskantar junansu.
[And Israel and the Philistines formed their lines one opposite the other. ]
22 Dawuda ya bar kayansa a wajen wani mai lura da kaya, sai ya ruga zuwa bakin dāgā yă gai da’yan’uwansa.
[And David deposited his burden in the hand of a keeper, and ran to the line, and went and asked his brethren how they Were. ]
23 Da yana magana da su sai Goliyat, jarumin nan Bafilistin daga Gat ya fito daga rundunar Filistiyawa, ya tā da murya kamar yadda ya saba. Dawuda kuwa ya ji shi.
[And while he was speaking with them, behold the Amessaean advanced, Goliath by name, the Philistine of Geth, of the armies of the Philistines, and he spoke ] [as before, and David heard. ]
24 Da Isra’ilawa suka ga mutumin, sai dukansu suka gudu saboda tsananin tsoro.
[And all the men of Israel when they saw the man fled from before him, and they were greatly terrified. ]
25 Isra’ilawa suka yi ta cewa, “Kun ga yadda wannan mutum yana ta fitowa? Yana fitowa ne don yă kalubalanci Isra’ila. Sarki zai sāka wa mutumin da ya kashe wannan da dukiya mai yawa. Zai kuma ba shi’yarsa yă aura, yă cire suna mahaifinsa daga biyan kuɗin haraji cikin Isra’ila.”
[And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that comes up? for he has reproached Israel and has come up; and it shall be that the man who shall smite him, the king shall enrich him with great wealth and shall give him his daughter, and shall make his father’s house free in Israel. ]
26 Dawuda ya tambayi mutanen da suke tsaye kusa da shi ya ce, “Me za a yi wa wanda ya kashe Bafilistin nan, ya kuma cire wannan kunya daga Isra’ila? Wane ne wannan bafilistin marar kaciya da yake kalubalantar rundunar yaƙi na Allah mai rai?”
[and David spoke to the men who stood with him saying, Shall it indeed be done thus to the man who shall smite that Philistine, and take away reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine that he has defied the army of the living God? ]
27 Sai suka sāke gaya masa abin da suka faɗa cewa, “Ga abin da zai faru da wanda ya kashe shi.”
[And the people spoke to him according to this Word, saying Thus shall it be done to the man Who shall smite him. ]
28 Da wansa Eliyab, ya ji yana magana da mutanen, sai ransa ya ɓace ƙwarai saboda fushi, sai ya ce wa Dawuda, “Me ka zo yi a nan? Wa kuma ka bar wa’yan tumakin a jeji? Na san ka da taurinkai, da kuma mugun hali. Ka zo nan ne don ka yi kallon yaƙi kawai.”
[And Eliab his elder brother heard as he spoke to the men, and Eliab was very angry with David and said, Why hast thou thus come down, and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride and the naughtiness of thine heart, for thou art come down to see the battle. ]
29 Dawuda ya ce, “To, yanzu me na yi? Ba zan ma yi magana ba?”
[And David said what have I done now? ] [Have I no business here? ]
30 Sai ya juya wajen wani kuma ya sāke kawo zancen, mutanen kuwa suka amsa masa kamar dā.
[And he turned from him towards another, and he spoke after the same manner; and the people answered him ] [after the former manner. ]
31 Aka ji abin da Dawuda ya ce, aka kuwa gaya wa Shawulu, Shawulu kuma ya aika a kawo shi.
[And the Words which David spoke were heard and were reported ] [to Saul. And he took him to himself. ]
32 Da Shawulu ya tambayi Dawuda, sai Dawuda ya ce masa, “Kada kowa yă damu saboda wannan Bafilistin. Bawanka zai je yă yi faɗa da shi.”
And David said to Saul, Let not, I pray thee, the heart of my lord be dejected within him: thy servant will go, and fight with this Philistine.
33 Shawulu ya ce, “Ba za ka iya yin faɗa da wannan Bafilistin ba, ya daɗe yana yaƙi, ya yi yaƙi tun yana saurayi. Ga shi kuwa kai ɗan yaro ne kawai.”
And Saul said to David, Thou wilt not in anywise be able to go against this Philistine to fight with him, for thou art a mere youth, and he a man of war from his youth.
34 Amma Dawuda ya ce wa Shawulu, “Bawanka yana kiwon tumakin mahaifinsa. Sa’ad da zaki ko beyar ta zo ta kama tunkiya, ta tafi da ita.
And David said to Saul, Thy servant was tending the flock for his father; and when a lion came and a she-bear, and took a sheep out of the flock,
35 Nakan bi ta a baya in buga ta in kuma ƙwato tunkiyar daga bakinta. In kuma ta taso mini, nakan cafke ta a gashinta in buga ta in kashe.
then I went forth after him, and smote him, and drew [the spoil] out of his mouth: and as he rose up against me, then I caught hold of his throat, and smote him, and slew him.
36 Bawanka ya kashe zaki da beyar, wannan Bafilistin marar kaciya zai zama kamar ɗaya daga cikinsu, domin ya rena rundunar Allah mai rai.
Thy servant smote both the lion and the bear, and the uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them: shall I not go and smite him, and remove this day a reproach from Israel? For who [is] this uncircumcised one, who has defied the army of the living God?
37 Ubangiji wanda ya cece ni daga kumbar zaki da kuma kumbar beyar, zai cece ni daga hannun wannan Bafilistin.” Shawulu ya ce wa Dawuda, “Je ka, Ubangiji yă kasance tare da kai.”
The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion and out the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this uncircumcised Philistine. And Saul said to David, Go, and the Lord shall be with thee.
38 Sai Shawulu ya kawo kayan yaƙinsa ya sa wa Dawuda. Ya sa masa hular kwanon da aka yi da tagulla a kansa, ya kuma sa masa rigar ƙarfensa.
And Saul clothed David with a military coat, and [put] his brazen helmet on his head.
39 Dawuda ya ɗaura māshin Shawulu a sulken, ya yi ƙoƙari yă zaga, sai ya ji ba zai iya ba saboda bai saba ba. Ya cewa Shawulu, “Ba zan iya tafiya da waɗannan ba, domin ban saba ba.” Don haka ya tuɓe su.
And he girt David with his sword over his coat: and he made trial walking [with them] once and again: and David said to Saul, I shall not be able to go with these, for I have not proved [them]: so they remove them from him.
40 Sai ya ɗauki sandansa, ya zaɓi duwatsu guda biyar masu sulɓi daga cikin rafi, ya sa su a’yar jakarsa ta makiyaya; ya kuma ɗauki majajjawarsa, ya tafi, yă fuskanci Bafilistin.
And he took his staff in his hand, and he chose for himself five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the shepherd's scrip which he had for his store, and his sling was in his hand; and he approached the Philistine.
41 Ana ciki haka, sai Bafilistin nan shi ma ya fita yana gusowa zuwa wurin Dawuda. Mai riƙe masa garkuwar yaƙi kuwa yana tafe a gabansa.
And the Philistine advanced and drew nigh to David, and a man bearing his shield went before him, and the Philistine looked on.
42 Bafilistin ya dubi Dawuda daga sama har ƙasa, ya gan dai ɗan yaro ne kawai, kyakkyawa kuma mai ƙoshin lafiya, sai ya rena shi.
And Goliath saw David, and despised him; for he was a lad, and ruddy, with a fair countenance.
43 Ya ce masa, “Kana tsammani ni kare ne da za ka zo mini da sanda?” Sai ya la’anci Dawuda da sunayen allolin Filistiyawa.
And the Philistine said to David, Am I as a dog, that thou comest against me with a staff and stones? [and David said, Nay, but worse than a dog.] And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
44 Ya ce, “Zo nan, ni kuwa zan ba da naman jikinka ga tsuntsayen sama da namun jeji su ci.”
And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.
45 Dawuda ya ce wa Bafilistin, “Kana zuwa ka yaƙe ni da māshi da takobi da kere, amma ni ina zuwa in yaƙe ka a cikin sunan Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Allah na rundunar Isra’ila, wanda ka rena.
And David said to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with sword, and with spear, and with shield; but I come to thee in the name of the Lord God of hosts of the army of Israel, which thou hast defied
46 Yau nan, Ubangiji zai bashe ka a hannuna, zan kuwa kashe ka, in datse kanka. Yau, zan ba da gawawwakin rundunar Filistiyawa ga tsuntsayen sama da namun jeji, da haka duniya za tă sani lalle akwai Allah a cikin Isra’ila.
this day. And the Lord shall deliver thee this day into my hand; and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from off thee, and will give thy limbs and the limbs of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the sky, and to the wild beasts of the earth; and all the earth shall know that there is a God in Israel.
47 Duk waɗanda suka taru a nan za su san cewa ba da māshi ko takobi ne Ubangiji yake ceto ba, gama yaƙin nan na Ubangiji ne, shi kuwa zai bashe ku duka a hannuwanmu.”
And all this assembly shall know that the Lord delivers not by sword or spear, for the battle [is] the Lord's, and the Lord will deliver you into our hands.
48 Yayinda Bafilistin yana matsowa kusa domin yă fāɗa wa Dawuda, sai Dawuda ya ruga a guje zuwa bakin dāgā don yă same shi.
And the Philistine arose and went to meet David.
49 Ya sa hannu a jakarsa ya ɗauki dutse, ya sa cikin majajjawa ya wurga, dutsen kuwa ya bugi Bafilistin a goshi, dutsen ya shiga cikin goshinsa, sai Bafilistin ya fāɗi rubda ciki.
And David stretched out his hand to his scrip, and took thence a stone, and slang it, and smote the Philistine on his forehead, and the stone penetrated through the helmet into his forehead, and he fell upon his face to the ground.
50 Da majajjawa da dutse kawai Dawuda ya ci nasara a kan Bafilistin. Ya buge shi, ya kashe shi ba tare da takobi a hannunsa ba.
[So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and smote the Philistine and slew him, and there was no sword in the hand of David. ]
51 Dawuda ya ruga ya tsaya a bisan Bafilistin, ya zare takobin Bafilistin daga kubensa, ya datse masa kai da shi. Da Filistiyawa suka ga jaruminsu ya mutu, sai suka juya suka gudu.
And David ran, and stood upon him, and took his sword, and slew him, and cut off his head: and the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, and they fled.
52 Mutanen Isra’ila da na Yahuda suka rugo gaba da babbar murya, suka fafari Filistiyawa har zuwa mashigin Gat da kuma ƙofofin Ekron. Gawawwakin Filistiyawa suka bazu a hanyar Sha’arayim zuwa Gat da kuma Ekron.
And the men of Israel and Juda arose, and shouted and pursued them as far as the entrance to Geth, and as far as the gate of Ascalon: and the slain men of the Philistines fell in the way of the gates, both to Geth, and to Accaron.
53 Da Isra’ilawa suka komo daga bin Filistiyawa sai suka washe sansanin Filistiyawa.
And the men of Israel returned from pursuing after the Philistines, and they destroyed their camp.
54 Dawuda ya ɗauki kan Bafilistin zuwa Urushalima. Sai Dawuda ya ajiye kayan yaƙin Bafilistin a tentinsa.
And David took the head of the Philistine, and brought it to Jerusalem; but he put his armour in his tent.
55 Yayinda Shawulu yake kallon Dawuda sa’ad da za shi yă yaƙi Bafilistin, sai ya tambayi Abner, komandan rundunarsa ya ce, “Abner, ɗan wane ne wannan saurayi?” Abner ya ce ran sarki yă daɗe, “Ban sani ba.”
And when Saul saw David going out to meet the Philistine, he said to Abener the captain of the host, Whose son is this youth? and Abener said, As thy sould lives, O King, I know not.
56 Sarki ya ce, “Ka tambaya mini ko yaron wane ne wannan saurayi.”
And the king said, Do thou ask whose son this youth is.
57 Dawuda yana dawowa daga karkashe Filistiyawa ke nan, sai Abner ya kai shi gaban Shawulu, riƙe da kan Bafilistin.
And as David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abener took him and brought him before Saul, and the head of the Philistine was in his hand.
58 Sai Shawulu ya ce, “Kai ɗan wane ne, saurayi?” Dawuda ya ce, “Ni ɗan bawanka Yesse ne, na Betlehem.”
And Saul said to him, Whose son art thou, young man? and David said, The son of thy servant Jessae the Bethleemite.
