1 Sama’ila 30
1 A rana ta uku, Dawuda da mutanensa suka isa Ziklag, sai suka tarar Amalekawa sun riga sun kawo wa Negeb da Ziklag hari. Suka cinye Ziklag, suka ƙone ta,
And it comes to pass, in the coming in of David and his men to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites have pushed toward the south, and to Ziklag, and strike Ziklag, and burn it with fire,
2 suka kwashe mata, yara da tsofaffi da dukan abubuwan da suke cikin garin. Ba su kashe kowa ba, amma suka kwashe su, suka tafi.
and they take the women who [are] in it captive; they have not put anyone to death from small to great, and they lead [them] away, and go on their way.
3 Da Dawuda da mutanensa suka isa Ziklag suka tarar an ƙone garin, an kuma kwashe matansu, da’ya’yansu mata, da kuma’ya’yansu maza ganima,
And David comes in—and his men—to the city, and behold, [it is] burned with fire, and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters have been taken captive.
4 sai Dawuda da mutanensa suka yi kuka, suka yi ta kuka har sai da ƙarfinsu ya ƙare.
And David lifts up—and the people who [are] with him—their voice and weep, until they have no power to weep.
5 An kama matan Dawuda, wato, Ahinowam daga Yezireyel da Abigiyel matar Nabal mutumin Karmel wanda ya rasu.
And the two wives of David have been taken captive, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelite;
6 Dawuda kuwa ya damu ƙwarai domin mutanensa suna niyyar su jajjefe shi da duwatsu, kowannensu ransa ya ɓace saboda’ya’yansa maza da mata, amma Dawuda ya sami ƙarfafawa a cikin Ubangiji Allahnsa.
and David has great distress, for the people have said to stone him, for the soul of all the people has been bitter, each for his sons and for his daughters; and David strengthens himself in his God YHWH.
7 Sai Dawuda ya ce wa Abiyatar firist, ɗan Ahimelek, “Kawo mini efod.” Sai Abiyatar ya kawo masa.
And David says to Abiathar the priest, son of Ahimelech, “Please bring the ephod near to me”; and Abiathar brings the ephod near to David,
8 Dawuda kuwa ya nemi nufin Ubangiji ya ce, “In bi bayan’yan harin nan? Zan ci musu?” Ubangiji ya ce, “Bi su, gama za ka ci musu, ka ƙwato abin da suka kwashe.”
and David inquires of YHWH, saying, “I pursue after this troop—do I overtake it?” And He says to him, “Pursue, for you certainly overtake, and certainly deliver.”
9 Dawuda da mutanensa ɗari shida suka kama hanya, da suka kai Kwarin Besor, waɗansunsu suka tsaya a can.
And David goes on, he and six hundred men who [are] with him, and they come to the Brook of Besor, and those left have stood still,
10 Dawuda ya ci gaba da mutane ɗari huɗu, don mutane ɗari biyu sun gaji sosai har sun kāsa ƙetare rafin Besor.
and David pursues, he and four hundred men (and two hundred men stand still who have been too faint to pass over the Brook of Besor),
11 Suka sami wani mutumin Masar a fili suka kawo shi wurin Dawuda. Suka ba shi abinci ya ci, suka kuma ba shi ruwa ya sha.
and they find a man, an Egyptian, in the field, and take him to David, and give bread to him, and he eats, and they cause him to drink water,
12 Suka ba shi saura wainan’ya’yan ɓaure da kuma wainan’ya’yan inabi, ya ci ya sami ƙarfi. Gama bai ci ba, bai sha ba, har yini uku da dare uku.
and give to him a piece of a bunch of dried figs, and two bunches of raisins, and he eats, and his spirit returns to him, for he has not eaten bread nor drunk water [for] three days and three nights.
13 Dawuda ya tambaye shi ya ce, “Wane ne ubangidanka, kuma daga ina ka fito?” Ya ce, “Ni mutumin Masar ne, bawan wani mutumin Amalek. Maigidana ya ƙyale ni sa’ad da na yi rashin lafiya kwanaki ukun da suka wuce.
And David says to him, “Whose [are] you? And where [are] you from?” And he says, “I [am] an Egyptian youth, servant to a man, an Amalekite, and my lord forsakes me, for I have been sick [for] three days,
14 Mun kai hari a Negeb ta Keretawa ta Yahuda, da Negeb ta Kaleb, muka kuma ƙone Ziklag.”
we pushed [to] the south of the Cherethite, and against that which [is] to Judah, and against the south of Caleb, and we burned Ziklag with fire.”
15 Dawuda ya ce masa, “Za ka iya kai ni wurin maharan nan?” Ya ce, “Idan ka rantse mini da Allah, ba za ka kashe ni ba, ba kuwa za ka mai da ni wurin ubangidana ba, sai in kai ka inda maharan suke.”
And David says to him, “Do you bring me down to this troop?” And he says, “Swear to me by God [that] you do not put me to death, nor do you shut me up into the hand of my lord, and I bring you down to this troop.”
16 Ya bi da Dawuda har zuwa can, sai ga su a baje ko’ina a ƙasa, suna ci, suna sha, suna annashuwa saboda yawan ganimar da suka kwashe daga ƙasar Filistiyawa da ƙasar Yahuda.
And he brings him down, and behold, they are spread out over the face of all the earth, eating, and drinking, and celebrating, with all the great spoil which they have taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Judah.
17 Dawuda ya yaƙe su tun daga fāɗuwar rana har yammar kashegari. Ba ko ɗaya da ya tsira sai samari ɗari huɗu waɗanda suka tsere a kan raƙuma.
And David strikes them from the twilight even to the evening of the next day, and there has not escaped of them a man, except four hundred young men who have ridden on the camels and flee.
18 Dawuda ya ƙwato kome da Amalekawa suka kwashe tare da matarsa biyu.
And David delivers all that the Amalekites have taken; David has also delivered his two wives.
19 Babu abin da ya ɓace, Dawuda ya dawo da kowa, manya da ƙanana,’yan maza da’yan mata duka, da dukan abubuwan da Amalekawa suka kwashe.
And nothing of theirs has lacked, from small to great, and to sons and daughters, and from the spoil, even to all that they had taken to themselves, David has brought back the whole,
20 Ya kuma ƙwato garkunan tumaki, da na awaki, da na shanu. Mutanensa suka koro shanun, suka yi gaba, suka ce, “Wannan shi ne ganimar Dawuda.”
and David takes the whole of the flock and of the herd [that] they have led on before these livestock, and they say, “This [is] David’s spoil.”
21 Da Dawuda ya zo wurin mutum ɗari biyu ɗin nan waɗanda suka tafke, suka kāsa binsa, waɗanda aka bari a bakin Kwarin Besor, sai suka taryi Dawuda da mutanensa da suka tafi tare da shi. Sa’ad da Dawuda ya zo kusa da su, sai ya gaishe su.
And David comes to the two hundred men who were too faint to go after David, and whom they cause to abide at the Brook of Besor, and they go out to meet David, and to meet the people who [are] with him, and David approaches the people, and asks of them of welfare.
22 Sai dukan mugaye da marasa kirki daga cikin mutanen da suka tafi tare da Dawuda suka ce, “Tun da yake ba su tafi tare da mu ba, ba za mu ba su kome daga cikin ganimar da muka ƙwato ba, sai dai kowane mutum yă ɗauki matarsa da’ya’yansa yă tafi.”
And every bad and worthless man, of the men who have gone with David, answers, indeed, they say, “Because that they have not gone with us we do not give to them of the spoil which we have delivered, except each his wife and his children, and they lead away and go.”
23 Dawuda ya ce, “A’a,’yan’uwana ba za ku yi haka da abin da Ubangiji ya ba mu ba. Ya tsare mu, ya kuma bashe sojojin da suka yi gāba da mu a hannuwanmu.
And David says, “You do not do so, my brothers, with that which YHWH has given to us, and He preserves us, and gives the troop which comes against us into our hand;
24 Wa zai goyi bayanku a kan wannan al’amari? Wanda ya tafi wurin yaƙi da wanda ya zauna wurin kaya, rabonsu zai zama daidai.”
and who listens to you in this thing? For as the portion of him who was brought down into battle, so also [is] the portion of him who is abiding by the vessels—they share alike.”
25 Dawuda ya sa wannan tă zama dawwammamiyar farilla ga Isra’ila tun daga wannan rana har yă zuwa yau.
And it comes to pass from that day and forward, that he appoints it for a statute and for an ordinance for Israel to this day.
26 Da Dawuda ya iso Ziklag, sai ya aika wa abokansa, dattawan Yahuda da rabo daga cikin ganimar ya ce, “Ga kyauta dominku, daga cikin ganimar maƙiyan Ubangiji.”
And David comes to Ziklag, and sends of the spoil to [the] elderly of Judah, to his friends, saying, “Behold, a blessing for you of the spoil of the enemies of YHWH,”
27 Kyautar domin waɗanda suke a Betel, da Ramot ta Negeb, da Yattir,
to those in Beth-El, and to those in South Ramoth, and to those in Jattir,
28 da Arower, da Sifmot, da Eshtemowa,
and to those in Aroer, and to those in Siphmoth, and to those in Eshtemoa,
29 da Rakal, da garuruwan Yerameyelawa, da garuruwan Keniyawa,
and to those in Rachal, and to those in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, and to those in the cities of the Kenites,
30 da Horma, da Bor-Ashan, da Atak,
and to those in Hormah, and to those in Chor-Ashan, and to those in Athach,
31 da Hebron, da dukan wuraren da Dawuda da mutanensa suka taɓa zagawa.
and to those in Hebron, and to all the places where David—he and his men—had gone up and down.
