1 A shekara ta talatin da shida ta mulkin Asa, Ba’asha sarkin Isra’ila ya haura don yă yaƙi Yahuda da Rama mai katanga, don kuma yă hana wani daga fita ko shiga yankin Asa sarkin Yahuda.
In the thirty-sixth year of the reign of Asa, Baasha king of Israel has come up against Judah, and builds Ramah, so as not to permit any going out and coming in to Asa king of Judah.
2 Sai Asa ya ɗauki azurfa da zinariya daga ma’ajin haikalin Ubangiji da kuma na fadansa ya aika wa Ben-Hadad sarkin Aram, wanda yake mulki a Damaskus.
And Asa brings out silver and gold from the treasures of the house of YHWH and of the house of the king, and sends [them] to Ben-Hadad king of Aram, who is dwelling in Damascus, saying,
3 Ya ce, “Bari yarjejjeniya ta kasance tsakani na da kai kamar yadda ya kasance tsakanin mahaifina da mahaifinka. Dubi ina aika maka azurfa da zinariya. Yanzu ka yanke yarjejjeniya da Ba’asha sarkin Isra’ila domin yă janye daga gare ni.”
“A covenant [is] between me and you, and between my father and your father, behold, I have sent silver and gold to you; go, break your covenant with Baasha king of Israel, and he goes up from off me.”
4 Ben-Hadad ya yarda da Sarki Asa ya kuma aika da manyan hafsoshin mayaƙansa a kan garuruwan Isra’ila. Suka ci Iyon, Dan, Abel-Mayim da kuma dukan biranen ajiya na Naftali.
And Ben-Hadad listens to King Asa, and sends the heads of the forces that he has to cities of Israel, and they strike Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-Maim, and all the stores, cities of Naphtali.
5 Da Ba’asha ya ji wannan, ya daina ginin Rama ya yashe aikinsa.
And it comes to pass, at Baasha’s hearing, that he ceases from building Ramah, and lets his work rest;
6 Sa’an nan Sarki Asa ya kawo dukan mutanen Yahuda, suka kuma kwashe duwatsu da katako daga Rama waɗanda Ba’asha yake amfani da su. Da su ne Asa ya gina Geba da Mizfa.
and Asa the king has taken all Judah, and they carry away the stones of Ramah and its wood that Baasha has built [with], and he builds Geba and Mizpah with them.
7 A lokacin Hanani mai duba ya zo wurin Asa sarkin Yahuda ya ce masa, “Don ka dogara ga sarkin Aram, ba kuwa ga Ubangiji Allahnka ba ne mayaƙan sarkin Aram sun kuɓuce daga hannunka.
And at that time Hanani the seer has come to Asa king of Judah and says to him, “Because of your leaning on the king of Aram, and you have not leaned on your God YHWH, therefore the force of the king of Aram has escaped from your hand.
8 Ai, Kushawa da Libiyawa rundunar sojoji ne masu yawan gaske, suna kuma da kekunan yaƙi da mahayan dawakai masu yawa ƙwarai. Amma duk da haka, saboda ka dogara ga Ubangiji, ya kuwa ba da su cikin hannunka.
Did the Cushim and the Lubim not become a very great force for multitude, for chariot, and for horsemen? And in your leaning on YHWH He gave them into your hand,
9 Gama gaban Ubangiji yana ko’ina a duniya don yă ƙarfafa waɗanda zukatansu suke binsa cikin aminci. Ka yi wauta, daga yanzu nan gaba za ka yi ta yaƙi.”
for YHWH—His eyes go to and fro in all the earth, to show Himself strong [for] a people whose heart [is] perfect toward Him; you have been foolish concerning this, because from now on there are wars with you.”
10 Sai Asa ya yi fushi sosai da mai duban saboda wannan; ya yi fushi ƙwarai har ya sa aka jefa shi a kurkuku. A lokaci guda kuma Asa ya fara gwada wa mutane azaba.
And Asa is angry at the seer, and puts him [in] the house of stocks, for [he is] in a rage with him for this; and Asa oppresses [some] of the people at that time.
11 Ayyukan mulkin Asa, daga farko zuwa ƙarshe, suna a rubuce a littafin sarakunan Yahuda da Isra’ila.
And behold, the matters of Asa, the first and the last, behold, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Judah and Israel.
12 A shekara ta talatin da tara ta mulkinsa, Asa ya kamu da wata cuta a ƙafarsa. Ko da yake cutar ta yi tsanani, duk d haka ma a cikin ciwonsa bai nemi taimako daga Ubangiji ba, sai dai daga likitoci.
And Asa is diseased—in the thirty-ninth year of his reign—in his feet, until his disease is excessive; and also in his disease he has not sought YHWH, but among physicians.
13 Sa’an nan a shekara ta arba’in da ɗaya ta mulkinsa, Asa ya mutu ya kuma huta tare da kakanninsa.
And Asa lies with his fathers, and dies in the forty-first year of his reign,
14 Suka binne shi a kabarin da ya fafe wa kansa a Birnin Dawuda. Suka sa shi a makara wadda aka rufe da kayan yaji da kuma turare dabam-dabam da aka niƙa, suka kuma ƙuna babbar wuta don girmama shi.
and they bury him in [one of] his graves that he had prepared for himself in the City of David, and they cause him to lie on a bed that [one] has filled [with] spices, and various kinds of mixtures, with perfumed work; and they burn a very great burning for him.
