1 Sama’ila 19
1 Shawulu ya gaya wa ɗansa Yonatan da ma’aikatansa su kashe Dawuda. Amma Yonatan yana son Dawuda sosai.
Saul spoke to Jonathan his son and to all his servants, that they should kill David. But Jonathan, Saul’s son, greatly delighted in David.
2 Sai ya gargaɗe shi ya ce, “Mahaifina Shawulu yana neman hanyar da zai kashe ka. Ka kula da kanka gobe da safe, ka tafi wani wuri ka ɓuya.
Jonathan told David, saying, “Saul my father seeks to kill you. Now therefore, please take care of yourself in the morning, live in a secret place, and hide yourself.
3 Zan je in tsaya da mahaifina a fili inda kake, zan yi masa magana game da kai. Zan kuma gaya maka abin da na ji.”
I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will talk with my father about you; and if I see anything, I will tell you.”
4 Yonatan ya yi magana mai kyau a kan Dawuda a wajen mahaifinsa ya ce, “Kada sarki yă yi wani mummunan abu wa bawansa Dawuda, gama bai yi maka wani abu marar kyau ba. Abin da ya yi ya amfane ka ƙwarai da gaske.
Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father, and said to him, “Do not let the king sin against his servant, against David; because he has not sinned against you, and because his works have been very good toward you;
5 Ya yi kasai da ransa sa’ad da ya kashe Bafilistin nan. Ubangiji ya ba wa dukan Isra’ila babban nasara, ka gani, ka kuma yi farin ciki. Don me za ka ci mutuncin amintaccen mutum kamar Dawuda ta wurin kashe shi ba tare da wani dalili ba?”
for he put his life in his hand and struck the Philistine, and the LORD worked a great victory for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced. Why then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?”
6 Shawulu ya saurari Yonatan sai ya rantse ya ce, “Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye, ba za a kashe Dawuda ba.”
Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan; and Saul swore, “As the LORD lives, he shall not be put to death.”
7 Ta haka Yonatan ya kira Dawuda ya gaya masa dukan maganarsu. Ya kawo shi wurin Shawulu, Dawuda kuwa ya zauna tare da Shawulu kamar dā.
Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all those things. Then Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as before.
8 Wani yaƙi ya sāke tashi, Dawuda kuwa ya fita ya yaƙi Filistiyawa, ya kai musu hari mai tsanani, sai da suka gudu a gabansa.
There was war again. David went out and fought with the Philistines, and killed them with a great slaughter; and they fled before him.
9 Amma mugun ruhu daga Ubangiji ya sauko wa Shawulu yayinda yana zaune a cikin gidansa da māshi a hannunsa. Yayinda Dawuda yake bugan molo,
An evil spirit from the LORD was on Saul as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing music with his hand.
10 Shawulu ya yi ƙoƙari yă kafe shi da bango da māshinsa, amma Dawuda ya goce sa’ad da Shawulu jefa māshin a bango. A daren nan Dawuda ya nemi hanya ya gudu.
Saul sought to pin David to the wall with the spear, but he slipped away out of Saul’s presence; and he stuck the spear into the wall. David fled and escaped that night.
11 Shawulu ya aiki mutane zuwa gidan Dawuda su yi gadin gidan, su kuma kashe Dawuda. Amma Mikal matar Dawuda ta gargaɗe Dawuda, ta ce, “In ba ka gudu a daren nan ba, kashegari za a kashe ka.”
Saul sent messengers to David’s house to watch him and to kill him in the morning. Michal, David’s wife, told him, saying, “If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be killed.”
12 Haka kuwa Mikal ta sauko da Dawuda ta taga ya gudu, ya tsere.
So Michal let David down through the window. He went away, fled, and escaped.
13 Sai Mikal ta ɗauki gunki ta kwantar da shi a gādo, ta sa masa gashin akuya a kansa, sai ta rufe da mayafi.
Michal took the teraphim and laid it in the bed, and put a pillow of goats’ hair at its head and covered it with clothes.
14 Da Shawulu ya aiki mutane su kama Dawuda. Mikal ta ce, “Ba shi da lafiya.”
When Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, “He is sick.”
15 Sai Shawulu ya sāke aiki mutanen su ga Dawuda, ya ce musu, “Ku kawo shi a gādonsa domin in kashe shi.”
Saul sent the messengers to see David, saying, “Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him.”
16 Amma da mutanen suka shiga sai suka ga gunkin a gadon, a wajen kan kuwa akwai gashin akuya.
When the messengers came in, behold, the teraphim was in the bed, with the pillow of goats’ hair at its head.
17 Shawulu ya ce wa Mikal, “Don me kika ruɗe ni har kika bar maƙiyina ya gudu ya tsere?” Mikal ta ce masa, “Ya ce mini, ‘Idan ban bar shi ya tafi ba, zai kashe ni?’”
Saul said to Michal, “Why have you deceived me like this and let my enemy go, so that he has escaped?” Michal answered Saul, “He said to me, ‘Let me go! Why should I kill you?’”
18 Da Dawuda ya gudu ya tsere, sai ya tafi wurin Sama’ila a Rama ya gaya masa dukan abin da Shawulu ya yi masa. Da shi da Sama’ila suka tafi Nayiwot suka zauna a can.
Now David fled and escaped, and came to Samuel at Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. He and Samuel went and lived in Naioth.
19 Shawulu ya sami labari cewa, “Dawuda yana Nayiwot a Rama.”
Saul was told, saying, “Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.”
20 Sai ya aiki mutane su je su kamo Dawuda, amma da suka ga ƙungiyar annabawa suna annabci tare da Sama’ila shugabansu a tsaye, sai Ruhun Allah ya sauko wa mutanen Shawulu, su ma suka fara yin annabci.
Saul sent messengers to seize David; and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as head over them, God’s Spirit came on Saul’s messengers, and they also prophesied.
21 Shawulu ya sami labari game da wannan, sai ya sāke aiken waɗansu da yawa. Su ma suka shiga yin annabci. Shawulu ya sāke aiken mutane sau na uku, su kuma suka shiga yin annabci.
When Saul was told, he sent other messengers, and they also prophesied. Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they also prophesied.
22 A ƙarshe, shi da kansa ya tashi ya tafi Rama. Ya bi ta babban rijiyar ruwan Seku. A can ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Ina Sama’ila da Dawuda suke?” Suka ce, “Suna cikin Nayiwot a Rama.”
Then he also went to Ramah, and came to the great well that is in Secu: and he asked, “Where are Samuel and David?” One said, “Behold, they are at Naioth in Ramah.”
23 Saboda haka Shawulu ya tafi Nayiwot a Rama, amma Ruhun Allah ya sauko masa, shi ma ya yi tafiya yana annabci har sai da ya isa Nayiwot.
He went there to Naioth in Ramah. Then God’s Spirit came on him also, and he went on, and prophesied, until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
24 Ya tuttuɓe rigunarsa, ya kuma yi annabci a gaban Sama’ila. Ya kwanta tsirara dukan yini da dukan dare. Abin da ya sa ke nan mutane suke cewa, “Shawulu ma yana cikin annabawa ne?”
He also stripped off his clothes. He also prophesied before Samuel and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
