2 Tarihi 20
1 Bayan wannan, Mowabawa da Ammonawa tare da waɗansu Meyunawa suka zo su yaƙi Yehoshafat.
It happened after this, that the people of Moab, and the people of Ammon, and with them some of the Meunites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.
2 Sai waɗansu mutane suka zo suka faɗa wa Yehoshafat, “Ga babban runduna tana zuwa a kanka daga Edom, daga ƙetaren Teku, daga Aram. Ta ma kai Hazazon Tamar” (wato, En Gedi).
Then some came who told Jehoshaphat, saying, "A great multitude is coming against you from beyond the sea from Edom. Look, they are in Hazazon Tamar" (that is, En Gedi).
3 A firgice, Yehoshafat ya yanke shawara yă nemi nufin Ubangiji, ya kuma yi shelar azumi a dukan Yahuda.
Jehoshaphat was alarmed, and set himself to seek to Jehovah. He proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.
4 Mutanen Yahuda suka taru gaba ɗaya don su nemi taimako daga wurin Ubangiji, tabbatacce suka fito daga kowane garin Yahuda don su neme shi.
Judah gathered themselves together, to seek help from Jehovah. They came out of all the cities of Judah to seek Jehovah.
5 Sa’an nan Yehoshafat ya miƙe tsaye a taron Yahuda da Urushalima a haikalin Ubangiji a sabon filin
Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of Jehovah, before the new court;
6 ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji Allah na kakanninmu, ba kai ne Allah wanda yake sama ba? Kana mulki a bisa dukan mulkokin ƙasashe. Iko da girma suna a hannunka, kuma ba wanda zai iya tsayayya da kai.
and he said, "Jehovah, the God of our fathers, aren't you God in heaven? Aren't you ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in your hand, so that no one is able to withstand you.
7 Ya Allahnmu, ba kai ba ne ka kore mazaunan wannan ƙasa a gaban mutanenka Isra’ila ka kuma ba da ita har abada ga zuriyar Ibrahim abokinka?
Did you not, our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel, and give it forever to the descendants of Abraham your friend?
8 Sun yi zama a cikinta suka kuma yi gina wuri mai tsarki a cikinta domin Sunanka cewa,
They lived in it, and have built you a sanctuary in it for your name, saying,
9 ‘In masifa ta zo mana, ko takobin hukunci, ko annoba ko yunwa, za mu tsaya a gabanka a gaban wannan haikalin da yake ɗauke da Sunanka, mu kuma yi kuka gare ka cikin azaba, za ka kuwa ji mu, ka cece mu.’
'If evil comes on us—the sword, judgment, pestilence, or famine—we will stand before this house, and before you, (for your name is in this house), and cry to you in our affliction, and you will hear and save.'
10 “Yanzu kuma ga mutanen Ammon, da na Mowab, da na Dutsen Seyir, waɗanda ka hana Isra’ilawa su kai musu yaƙi sa’ad da suka fito daga ƙasar Masar, su ne mutanen da Isra’ila suka ƙyale, ba su hallaka su ba.
Now, look, the people of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir, whom you would not let Israel invade, when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned aside from them, and did not destroy them;
11 Yau ga yadda suke so su biya mu. Su suke so su kore mu daga ƙasar da ka ba mu gādo.
look, how they reward us, to come to cast us out of your possession, which you have given us to inherit.
12 Ya Allahnmu, ba za ka hukunta su ba? Gama ba mu da ƙarfin fuskantar wannan babbar rundunar da take so ta yaƙe mu. Ba mu san abin da za mu yi ba, mu dai mun zuba maka ido.”
Our God, will you not judge them? For we have no might against this great company that comes against us; neither know we what to do, but our eyes are on you."
13 Dukan mazan Yahuda, tare da matansu da yaransu da ƙananansu, suka tsaya a gaban Ubangiji.
All Judah stood before Jehovah, with their little ones, their wives, and their children.
14 Sa’an nan Ruhun Ubangiji ya sauko a kan Yahaziyel ɗan Zakariya, ɗan Benahiya, ɗan Yehiyel, ɗan Mattaniya, wani Balawe kuma zuriyar Asaf, yayinda yake tsaye a cikin taron.
Then the Spirit of Jehovah came on Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, the Levite, of the sons of Asaph, in the midst of the assembly;
15 Ya ce, “Saurara, Sarki Yehoshafat da dukan waɗanda suke zama a Yahuda da Urushalima! Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce muku, ‘Kada ku ji tsoro ko ku fid da zuciya saboda wannan babbar runduna. Gama yaƙin ba naku ba ne, amma na Allah.
and he said, "Listen, all Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you king Jehoshaphat. Thus says Jehovah to you, 'Do not be afraid, neither be dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.
16 Gobe ku fito ku gangara ku yaƙe su. Za su yi ta haurawa ta Mashigin Ziz, ku kuwa za ku same su a ƙarshen kwari a Hamadan Yeruwel.
Tomorrow go down against them. Look, they are coming up by the ascent of Ziz. You shall find them at the end of the valley, before the wilderness of Jeruel.
17 Ba lalle ba ne ku yi wannan yaƙi. Ku dai, ku ja dāgā, ku tsaya kurum ku ga nasarar da Ubangiji zai ba ku, ya Yahuda da Urushalima. Kada ku ji tsoro; kada ku karai. Ku fito don ku fuskance su gobe, Ubangiji kuwa zai kasance tare ku.’”
You will not need to fight this battle. Set yourselves, stand still, and see the salvation of Jehovah with you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid, nor be dismayed. Go out against them tomorrow, for Jehovah is with you.'"
18 Yehoshafat ya rusuna da fuskarsa har ƙasa, dukan mutanen Yahuda da Urushalima suka fāɗi rubda ciki suka yi sujada a gaban Ubangiji.
Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before Jehovah, worshipping Jehovah.
19 Sa’an nan waɗansu Lawiyawa daga Kohatawa da Korayawa suka tashi tsaye suka yabe Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, da babbar murya sosai.
The Levites, of the descendants of the Kohathites and of the descendants of the Korahites, stood up to praise Jehovah, the God of Israel, with an exceeding loud voice.
20 Da sassafe suka tashi suka nufi Hamadan Tekowa. Yayinda suka kama hanya, Yehoshafat ya tsaya ya ce, “Ku saurare ni, Yahuda da mutanen Urushalima! Ku amince da Ubangiji Allahnku za a kuwa kafa ku; ku amince da annabawansa za ku kuwa yi nasara.”
They rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, "Listen to me, Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem. Believe in Jehovah your God, so you will be established. Believe his prophets, and you will prosper."
21 Bayan suka yi shawara tare da shugabanni, sai ya zaɓi mutanen da za su ja gaban sojoji suna waƙa ga Ubangiji suna yabonsa saboda tsarkinsa suna cewa, “Ku yi godiya ga Ubangiji, gama ƙaunarsa dawwammamiya ce har abada.”
When he had taken counsel with the people, he appointed those who should sing to Jehovah, and give praise in holy array, as they went out before the army, and say, Give thanks to Jehovah; for his loving kindness endures forever.
22 Da suka fara waƙa, suna kuma yabo, sai Ubangiji ya kai hari a kan mutanen Ammon da Mowab da Dutsen Seyir, waɗanda suka kawo hari a Yahuda, aka kuwa ci su da yaƙi.
When they began to sing and to praise, Jehovah set ambushers against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were struck.
23 Mutanen Ammon da Mowab suka tasar wa mazaunan Dutsen Seyir, suka hallaka su ƙaƙaf. Sa’ad da suka karkashe mazaunan Seyir sai suka fāɗa wa juna, suka yi ta hallaka juna.
For the people of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir, utterly to kill and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, everyone helped to destroy another.
24 Sa’ad da mutanen Yahuda suka zo wurin da yake fuskantar hamada, suka duba ta wajen babban rundunar, sai suka ga gawawwaki birjik a ƙasa; babu wani wanda ya kuɓuta.
When Judah came to the place overlooking the wilderness, they looked at the multitude; and look, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and there were none who escaped.
25 Sa’ad da Yehoshafat da jama’arsa suka je kwasar ganima, sai suka sami shanu masu yawan gaske, da kayayyaki, da tufafi, da abubuwa masu daraja, waɗanda suka yi ta kwasa har suka gaji. Kwana uku suka yi suna kwasar ganimar saboda yawanta.
When Jehoshaphat and his people came to take their spoil, they found among them in abundance both riches and dead bodies, and precious jewels, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away: and they were three days in taking the spoil, it was so much.
26 A rana ta huɗu sai suka taru a Kwarin Beraka, inda suka yabi Ubangiji. Wannan ne ya sa ake kiransa Kwarin Beraka har wa yau.
On the fourth day they assembled themselves in the Valley of Berachah; for there they blessed Jehovah: therefore the name of that place was called The Valley of Berachah to this day.
27 Sa’an nan Yehoshafat ya jagoranci dukan mutanen Yahuda da Urushalima suka dawo da farin ciki zuwa Urushalima, gama Ubangiji ya ba su dalilin farin ciki a kan abokan gābansu.
Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat in their forefront, to go again to Jerusalem with joy; for Jehovah had made them to rejoice over their enemies.
28 Suka shiga Urushalima suka shiga haikalin Ubangiji da kiɗin molaye da sarewa da kuma garayu.
They came to Jerusalem with stringed instruments and harps and trumpets to the house of Jehovah.
29 Tsoron Allah ya kama dukan mulkokin ƙasashe sa’ad da suka ji yadda Ubangiji ya yi yaƙi a kan abokan gāban Isra’ila.
The fear of God was on all the kingdoms of the countries, when they heard that Jehovah fought against the enemies of Israel.
30 Mulkin Yehoshafat kuwa ya zauna lafiya, gama Allahnsa ya ba shi hutu a kowane gefe.
So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet; for his God gave him rest all around.
31 Ta haka Yehoshafat ya yi mulki a bisa Yahuda. Yana da shekara talatin da biyar sa’ad da ya zama sarkin Yahuda, ya kuma yi mulki a Urushalima shekara ashirin da biyar. Sunan mahaifiyarsa Azuba ce,’yar Shilhi.
Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah: he was thirty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
32 Ya yi tafiya a hanyoyin mahaifinsa Asa bai kuwa kauce daga gare su ba; ya yi abin da yake daidai a gaban Ubangiji.
He walked in the way of Asa his father, and did not turn aside from it, doing that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah.
33 Duk da haka ba a kawar da masujadai kan tudu ba, domin har yanzu mutanen ba su tsayar da zukatansu ga Allahn kakanninsu ba.
However the high places were not taken away; neither as yet had the people set their hearts to the God of their fathers.
34 Sauran ayyukan mulkin Yehoshafat, daga farko zuwa ƙarshe, an rubuta su a tarihin Yehu ɗan Hanani, waɗanda aka rubuta a littafin sarakunan Isra’ila.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, look, they are written in the history of Jehu the son of Hanani, which is inserted in the book of the kings of Israel.
35 Daga baya, Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda ya haɗa kai da Ahaziya sarkin Isra’ila, wanda yake da laifin mugunta.
After this Jehoshaphat king of Judah joined himself with Ahaziah king of Israel. The same did very wickedly:
36 Ya yarda da shi su gina jiragen ruwan kasuwanci. Bayan aka gina waɗannan a Eziyon Geber,
and he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish; and they made the ships in Ezion Geber.
37 Eliyezer ɗan Dodabahu na Maresha ya yi annabci a kan Yehoshafat cewa, “Domin ka haɗa kai da Ahaziya, Ubangiji zai hallaka abin da ka yi.” Jiragen ruwan kuwa suka farfashe, ba a kuwa iya sa su je kasuwanci ba.
Then Eliezer the son of Dodavahu of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, "Because you have joined yourself with Ahaziah, Jehovah has destroyed your works." The ships were broken, so that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
