1 Sama’ila 2
1 Sai Hannatu ta yi addu’a ta ce, “Zuciyata tana farin ciki a cikin Ubangiji; a cikin Ubangiji an sa ina jin daɗi ƙwarai. Na buɗe bakina na yi wa abokan gābana dariya. Kai! Ina murna domin ka cece ni!
My heart is established in the Lord, my horn is exalted in my God; my mouth is enlarged over my enemies, I have rejoiced in thy salvation.
2 “Babu wani mai tsarki kamar Ubangiji babu wani, in ban da kai; babu wani dutse kamar Allahnmu.
For there is none holy as the Lord, and there is none righteous as our God; there is none holy besides thee.
3 “Ka daina maganganu na girman kai ka kuma daina faɗin kalmomin ɗaga kai; gama Ubangiji Allah ne masani daga gare shi kuma ana auna ayyuka.
Boast not, and utter not high things; let not high-sounding words come out of your mouth, for the Lord [is] a God of knowledge, and God prepares his own designs.
4 “An kakkarya bakkuna masu yaƙi, amma su da ka raunana an ba su makaman ƙarfi.
The bow of the mighty has waxed feeble, and the weak have girded themselves with strength.
5 Waɗanda a dā suna da abinci sosai; yanzu suna ƙodago saboda abinci, masu fama da yunwa kuwa sun daina jin yunwa. Ita da take bakararriya, ta haifi’ya’ya bakwai amma ita da tana da’ya’ya da yawa, ta zama mai baƙin ciki.
They that were full of bread are brought low; and the hungry have forsaken the land; for the barren has born seven, and she that abounded in children has waxed feeble.
The Lord kills and makes alive; he brings down to the grave, and brings up. (Sheol h7585)
7 Ubangiji ne yakan aika da talauci da kuma dukiya; yakan ƙasƙantar yă kuma ɗaukaka.
The Lord makes poor, and makes rich; he brings low, and lifts up.
8 Yakan tā da matalauci daga ƙura, yă kuma ɗaga mai bukata daga tarin toka; yă zaunar da su tare da’ya’yan sarki; yă kuma sa su gāji mulki na ɗaukaka. “Harsashin duniya na Ubangiji ne; a bisansu ne ya kafa duniya.
He lifts up the poor from the earth, and raises the needy from the dunghill; to seat him with the princes of the people, and causing them to inherit the throne of glory:
9 Zai kiyaye ƙafafun masu tsarki, amma mugaye za su lalace cikin duhu. “Ba bisa ga ƙarfi mutum ba ne mutum ke nasara;
granting his petition to him that prays; and he blesses the years of the righteous, for by strength cannot man prevail.
10 waɗanda suke gāba da Ubangiji za su hallaka. Zai yi musu tsawa daga sama, Ubangiji zai hukunta dukan duniya. “Zai ba wa sarkinsa ƙarfi, yă kuma ɗaukaka shafaffensa.”
The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the LORD shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.
11 Sa’an nan, Elkana ya koma gida a Rama amma yaron ya yi hidima a gaban Ubangiji a ƙarƙashin Eli firist.
and departed to Armathaim: and the child ministered in the presence of the Lord before Heli the priest.
12 ’Ya’yan Eli firist, mutane ne masu mugunta. Ba su ɗauki Ubangiji a bakin kome ba.
And the sons of Heli the priest [were] evil sons, not knowing the Lord.
13 Al’ada ce ga firistoci da mutane cewa in wani ya miƙa hadaya, yayinda nama yake kan wuta, bawan firist zai zo da babban cokali mai yatsu,
And the priest's claim from every one of the people that sacrificed [was this: ] the servant of the priest came when the flesh was in seething, and a flesh-hook of three teeth [was] in his hand.
14 zai soka cokali mai yatsun a tukunyar, ko butar da ake dafan naman. Duk abin da cokali mai yatsun ya cako daga tukunyar, ya zama na firist. Haka aka yi ta yi wa Isra’ilawan da suka zo miƙa hadaya a Shilo.
And he struck it into the great caldron, or into the brazen vessel, or into the pot, and whatever came up with the flesh-hook, the priest took for himself: so they did to all Israel that came to sacrifice to the Lord in Selom.
15 Tun ma kafin a ƙona kitse, bawan firist yakan zo yă ce wa mutumin da yake miƙa hadaya, “Ka ba wa firist nama domin yă gasa, ba zai karɓi dafaffen nama daga wurinka ba, sai ɗanye.”
And before the fat was burnt for a sweet savour, the servant of the priest would come, and say to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest, and I will by no means take of thee sodden flesh out of the caldron.
16 In kuwa mutumin ya ce masa, “Bari kitse yă ƙone tukuna, sa’an nan ka ɗiba duk abin da kake so.” Sai bawan yă ce masa, “A’a, ka ba ni yanzu, in ka ƙi kuwa zan ɗiba ƙarfi da yaji.”
And [if] the man that sacrificed said, First let the fat be burned, as it is fit, and take for thyself of all things which thy soul desires: then he would say, Nay, for thou shalt give it me now; and if not I will take it by force.
17 Wannan zunubin samarin ya yi muni ƙwarai a gaban Ubangiji, domin sun wulaƙanta hadayar Ubangiji, ƙwarai da gaske.
So the sin of the young men was very great before the Lord, for they set at nought the offering of the Lord.
18 Amma yaron nan Sama’ila, yana hidima a gaban Ubangiji yana sanye da efod na lilin.
And Samuel ministered before the Lord, a child girt with a linen ephod.
19 Kowace shekara mahaifiyarsa takan ɗinka’yar taguwa ta kai masa sa’ad da ita da mijinta suka je miƙa hadaya ta shekara.
And his mother made him a little doublet, and brought it to him from year to year, in her going up in company with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
20 Eli yakan sa wa Elkana da matarsa albarka, yă ce, Ubangiji yă ba ka waɗansu’ya’ya ta wurin matan nan, maimakon wanda ta roƙa daga Ubangiji, ta kuma ba da shi ga Ubangiji. Bayan haka sai su koma gida.
And Heli blessed Helcana and his wife, saying The Lord recompense to thee seed of this woman, in return for the loan which thou hast lent to the Lord: and the man returned to his place.
21 Hannatu kuwa ta sami alfarma daga Ubangiji. Ta yi ciki. Ana cikin haka Sama’ila kuwa sai girma yake ta yi a gaban Ubangiji.
And the Lord visited Anna, and she bore yet three sons, and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the Lord.
22 To, Eli kuwa ya tsufa ƙwarai, yana kuma jin labari duk abin da’ya’yansa suke yi wa dukan Isra’ila, da yadda suke lalata da matan da suke hidima a bakin ƙofar Tentin Sujada.
And Heli [was] very old, and he heard what his sons did to the children of Israel.
23 Saboda haka ya ce musu, “Don me kuke yin waɗannan abubuwa? Na sami labari daga wurin mutane a kan duk ayyukan muguntanku.
And he said to them, Why do ye according to this thing, which I hear from the mouth of all the people of the Lord?
24 A’a,’ya’yana ba labari mai kyau nake ji cikin mutanen Ubangiji ba.
Nay [my] sons, for the report which I hear [is] not good; do not so, for the reports which I hear [are] not good, so that the people do not serve God.
25 In mutum ya yi wa wani laifi Allah yakan kāre shi; amma in mutum ya yi wa Ubangiji zunubi wa zai kāre shi?” Duk da haka,’ya’yansa ba su kula da gargaɗin mahaifinsu ba, domin nufin Ubangiji ne yă hallaka su.
If a man should at all sin against another, then shall they pray for him to the Lord; but if a man sin against the Lord, who shall intreat for him? But they hearkened not to the voice of their father, because the Lord would by all means destroy them.
26 Yaron nan Sama’ila ya dinga girma cikin kwarjini da cikin tagomashi a gaba Ubangiji da mutane.
And the child Samuel advanced, and was in favour with God and with men.
27 Wani mutum ya zo wurin Eli ya ce masa, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Ashe ban bayana kaina sosai ga mahaifinka lokacin da yake a Masar a ƙarƙashin Fir’auna ba?
And a man of God came to Heli, and said, Thus says the Lord, I plainly revealed myself to the house of thy father, when they were servants in Egypt to the house of Pharao.
28 Na zaɓi mahaifinka daga cikin dukan kabilar Isra’ila yă zama firist nawa don yă yi hidima a bagade, don yă ƙona turare mai ƙanshi, don kuma yă sanya doguwar riga a gabana. Na kuma ba wa iyalin mahaifinka dukan hadaya ta ƙonawa da Isra’ila suka miƙa.
And I chose the house of thy father out of all the tribes of Israel to minister to me in the priest's office, to go up to my altar, and to burn incense, and to wear an ephod. And I gave to the house of thy father all the offerings by fire of the children of Israel for food.
29 Don me kuke rena hadayata da sadakokina da na ƙayyade domin mazaunina? Don me kake girmama’ya’yanka fiye da ni ta wurin cinye sashe mafi kyau na kowane hadayar da mutanena Isra’ila suka miƙa?’
And wherefore hast thou looked upon my incense-offering and my meat-offering with a shameless eye, and hast honoured thy sons above me, so that they should bless themselves with the first-fruits of every sacrifice of Israel before me?
30 “Saboda haka Ubangiji Allah na Isra’ila ya ce, ‘Na yi alkawari cewa gidanka da gidan mahaifinka za su yi mini hidima a gabana har abada.’ Amma, yanzu Allah ya ce, ba zai yiwu ba; waɗanda suke girmama ni; Ni ma zan girmama su. Amma waɗanda suke ƙasƙantar da ni, haka za a ƙasƙantar da su.
Therefore thus says the Lord God of Israel, I said, Thy house and the house of thy father shall pass before me for ever: but now the Lord says, That be far from me; for I will only honour them that honour me, and he that sets me at nought shall be despised.
31 Lokaci yana zuwa sa’ad da zan rage ƙarfinka da ƙarfin iyalin gidan mahaifinka. Domin kada a sāke samun tsohon mutum a zuriyarka.
Behold, the days come when I will destroy thy seed and the seed of thy father's house.
32 Za ka zama da ɓacin rai a mazaunina ko da yake za a yi wa Isra’ila alheri. A zuriyarka ba za a taɓa samun tsohon mutum ba.
And thou shalt not have an old man in my house for ever.
33 Kowannenku da ban kashe daga hidima a bagadena ba, za a bar shi don yă cika idanunka da hawaye da kuma baƙin ciki, dukan sauran zuriyarka kuwa za su mutu a ƙuruciyarsu.
And [if] I do not destroy a man of thine from my altar, [it shall be] that his eyes may fail and his soul may perish; and every one that remains in thy house shall fall by the sword of men.
34 “‘Abin da kuma ya faru da’ya’yanka biyu Hofni da Finehas zai zama alama a gare ka; saboda mutuwarsu za tă zama a rana ɗaya.
And this which shall come upon thy two sons Ophni and Phinees shall be a sign to thee; in one day they shall both die.
35 Zan tayar wa kaina amintaccen firist wanda zai aikata abin da nake so yă yi, zan kuwa ba shi zuriya da koyaushe za su yi aiki a gaban zaɓaɓɓen sarkina.
And I will raise up to myself a faithful priest, who shall do all that is in my heart and in my soul; and I will build him a sure house, and he shall walk before my Christ for ever.
36 Sa’an nan duk wanda ya rage a zuriyarka zai zo yă durƙusa a gabansa yă roƙi kuɗi da abinci, zai kuma roƙa a yardar masa yă taimaki firistoci da aiki domin yă sami abin da zai ci.’”
And it shall come to pass that he that survives in thy house, shall come to do obeisance before him for a little piece of silver, saying, Put me into one of thy priest's offices to eat bread.
