1 Sama’ila 29
1 Filistiyawa suka tattara dukan rundunoninsu a Afek. Isra’ila kuwa suka yi sansani kusa da maɓulɓular da take Yezireyel.
So the Philistims were gathered together with all their armies in Aphek: and the Israelites pitched by the fountaine, which is in Izreel.
2 Sa’ad da sarakuna Filistiyawa suke wucewa da rundunarsu na mutum ɗari-ɗari da na dubu-dubu. Dawuda da mutanensa suna biye a baya tare da Akish.
And the princes of the Philistims went foorth by hundreths and thousandes, but Dauid and his men came behinde with Achish.
3 Komandodin Filistiyawa suka ce, “Waɗannan Ibraniyawa kuma fa?” Akish ya ce, “Wannan shi ne Dawuda hafsan Shawulu, sarkin Isra’ila. Yana nan tare da ni shekara guda ke nan. Ban kuwa taɓa samunsa da wani lahani ba tun daga ranar da ya bar Shawulu.”
Then saide the princes of the Philistims, What doe these Ebrewes here? And Achish said vnto the princes of the Philistims, Is not this Dauid the seruant of Saul the King of Israel, who hath bene with me these dayes, or these yeeres, and I haue found nothing in him, since he dwelt with me vnto this day?
4 Amma komandodin Filistiyawa suka yi fushi, suka ce, “Ka sa mutumin nan yă koma zuwa wurin da ka ba shi yă zauna. Ba zai bi mu zuwa wurin yaƙi ba. Yana iya juya a kanmu lokacin yaƙin. Zai iya yin amfani da wannan zarafi yă ciccire kawunanmu don yă faranta wa maigidansa rai?
But the princes of the Philistims were wroth with him, and the princes of the Philistims said vnto him, Sende this fellow backe, that he may goe againe to his place which thou hast appointed him, and let him not goe downe with vs to battell, least that in the battell he be an aduersarie to vs: for wherewith should he obteine the fauour of his master? shoulde it not be with the heades of these men?
5 Tuna fa, ba shi ne Dawuda ɗin da ake girmama da rawa da waƙoƙi ana cewa, “‘Shawulu ya kashe dubbai, Dawuda kuwa dubbun dubbai ba’?”
Is not this Dauid, of whome they sang in daunces, saying, Saul slewe his thousande, and Dauid his ten thousande?
6 Saboda haka Akish ya kira Dawuda ya ce masa, “Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye, na amince da kai tun daga ranar da ka zo wurina har yă zuwa yau, ban same ka da wani laifi ba, na kuma yi farin ciki in sa ka a cikin sojojina don ka yi mini aiki. Amma masu mulki nawa ba su yarda da kai ba.
Then Achish called Dauid, and said vnto him, As the Lord liueth, thou hast bene vpright and good in my sight, when thou wentest out and in with mee in the hoste, neither haue I founde euill with thee, since thou camest to me vnto this day, but the princes doe not fauour thee.
7 Sai ka juya ka koma ka isa lafiya ba tare da ɓata wa masu mulkin Filistiyawa rai ba.”
Wherefore nowe returne, and go in peace, that thou displease not the princes of the Philistims.
8 Dawuda ya ce wa Akish, “Me na yi? Ka taɓa samun bawanka da laifi tun daga ranar da na zo har zuwa yanzu? Ina dalilin da ba zan tafi tare da kai in yaƙi maƙiyin ranka yă daɗe, sarki ba?”
And Dauid said vnto Achish, But what haue I done? and what hast thou founde in thy seruant as long as I haue bene with thee vnto this day, that I may not goe and fight against the enemies of my lorde the King?
9 Akish ya ce, “A ganina kai marar laifi ne kamar mala’ikan Allah, duk da haka shugabannin sojojin Filistiyawa sun ce, ‘Ba zai tafi yaƙi tare da mu ba.’
Achish then answered, and said to Dauid, I knowe thou pleasest mee, as an Angell of God: but the princes of the Philistims haue saide, Let him not goe vp with vs to battell.
10 Ka tashi da sassafe, kai da bayin shugabanka da suka zo tare da kai. Da gari ya waye sai ku kama hanya.”
Wherefore now rise vp earely in the morning with thy masters seruants that are come with thee: and when ye be vp earely, assoone as ye haue light, depart.
11 Gari na wayewa tun da sassafe Dawuda da mutanensa suka tashi suka kama hanyar komawa ƙasar Filistiyawa. Filistiyawa kuwa suka haura zuwa Yezireyel.
So Dauid and his men rose vp earely to depart in the morning, and to returne into the lande of the Philistims: and the Philistims went vp to Izreel.
