< 2 Sarakuna 13 >
1 A shekara ta ashirin da uku ta Yowash ɗan Ahaziya, sarkin Yahuda, Yehoyahaz ɗan Yehu, ya zama sarkin Isra’ila a Samariya, ya kuwa yi mulki shekaru goma sha bakwai.
In the twenty-third year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned seventeen years.
2 Ya aikata mugunta a gaban Ubangiji ta wurin bin zunuban Yerobowam ɗan Nebat, wanda ya sa Isra’ila ta aikata, bai kuwa guje musu ba.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin. He did not depart from it.
3 Saboda haka fushin Ubangiji ya ƙuna a kan Isra’ila, kuma da daɗewa ya sa su a ƙarƙashin ikon Hazayel sarkin Aram da Ben-Hadad ɗansa.
And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, continually.
4 Sai Yehoyahaz ya nemi tagomashin Ubangiji, Ubangiji kuwa ya saurare shi, domin ya gan irin matsin da sarkin Aram yake yi wa Isra’ila.
And Jehoahaz besought Jehovah, and Jehovah hearkened to him, for he saw the oppression of Israel, how that the king of Syria oppressed them.
5 Sai Ubangiji ya tā da mai ceto wa Isra’ila, suka kuma kuɓuta daga ikon Aram. Ta haka Isra’ilawa suka yi zama a gidajensu yadda suka yi a dā.
(And Jehovah gave Israel a savior, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians, and the sons of Israel dwelt in their tents as beforetime.
6 Sai dai ba su bar yin zunuban gidan Yerobowam ba, wanda ya sa Isra’ila ta aikata; suka ci gaba da yinsu. Haka ma, ginshiƙin Ashera ta kasance a tsaye a cikin Samariya.
Nevertheless they did not depart from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin, but walked therein. And the Asherah also remained in Samaria.)
7 Ba abin da ya rage na rundunar Yehoyahaz sai mahayan dawakai hamsin, kekunan yaƙi goma da kuma sojoji ƙasa dubu goma. Gama sarkin Aram ya hallaka sauran, ya kuma yi kaca-kaca da su kamar ƙura a masussuka.
For he did not leave to Jehoahaz of the people except fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen, for the king of Syria destroyed them, and made them like the dust in threshing.
8 Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Yehoyahaz, dukan abubuwan da ya yi da kuma nasarorinsa, duk a rubuce suke a cikin littafin tarihin sarakunan Isra’ila.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
9 Yehoyahaz ya huta da kakanninsa, aka binne shi a Samariya, Yehowash ɗansa kuma ya gāje shi.
And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. And Joash his son reigned in his stead.
10 A shekaru talatin da bakwai ta Yowash sarkin Yahuda, Yehowash ɗan Yehoyahaz ya zama sarkin Isra’ila a Samariya, ya kuma yi mulki shekaru goma sha shida.
In the thirty-seventh year of Joash king of Judah, Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned sixteen years.
11 Ya aikata mugunta a gaban Ubangiji, bai juya ga barin zunuban Yerobowam ɗan Nebat ba, wanda ya sa Isra’ila ta aikata, ya ci gaba da yinsu.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah. He did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin, but he walked therein.
12 Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Yowash, da dukan abubuwan da ya yi, da kuma nasarorinsa, haɗe da yaƙin da ya yi da Amaziya sarkin Yahuda, duk a rubuce suke a cikin littafin tarihin sarakunan Isra’ila.
Now the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might with which he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
13 Yowash ya huta da kakanninsa, Yerobowam kuwa ya gāje shi. Aka binne Yehowash a Samariya tare da sarakunan Isra’ila.
And Joash slept with his fathers, and Jeroboam sat upon his throne. And Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14 To, Elisha ya kamu da ciwon da ya kashe shi. Yowash sarkin Isra’ila ya gangara don yă gan shi, ya kuma yi kuka dominsa. Ya yi kuka yana cewa, “Babana! Babana, keken yaƙin Isra’ila da mahayan dawakanta!”
Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness of which he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down to him, and wept over him, and said, My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and the horsemen of it!
15 Elisha ya ce wa Yehowash, “Ka samo baka da kibiyoyi,” ya kuwa yi haka.
And Elisha said to him, Take bow and arrows. And he took to him bow and arrows.
16 Sai ya ce wa Yehowash sarkin Isra’ila, “Ka ɗauki baka a hannunka.” Da ya ɗauka, sai Elisha ya sa hannunsa a hannuwan sarki.
And he said to the king of Israel, Put thy hand upon the bow. And he put his hand upon it. And Elisha laid his hands upon the king's hands.
17 Ya ce masa, “Ka buɗe taga wajen gabas,” sai ya buɗe. Sai Elisha ya ce, “Ka harba!” Sai ya harba. Elisha ya ce, “Kibiyar nasara ta Ubangiji, kibiyar nasara a kan Aram! Za ka hallaka Arameyawa sarai a Afek.”
And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. Then Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he said, Jehovah's arrow of victory, even the arrow of victory over Syria, for thou shall smite the Syrians in Aphek till thou have consumed them.
18 Sa’an nan ya ce, “Ka ɗauki kibiyoyi,” sai sarkin ya ɗauko. Sai Elisha ya ce, “Ka caki ƙasa.” Sai ya caka sau uku sa’an nan ya daina.
And he said, Take the arrows. And he took them. And he said to the king of Israel, Smite upon the ground. And he smote thrice, and stopped.
19 Sai mutumin Allah ya yi fushi da shi ya ce, “Da a ce ka caki ƙasar sau biyar ko shida; da za ka yi nasara a kan Aram ka kuma hallaka ta sarai. Amma yanzu za ka yi nasara a kanta sau uku ne kawai.”
And the man of God was angry with him, and said, Thou should have smitten five or six times. Then thou would have smitten Syria till thou had consumed it, whereas now thou shall smite Syria but thrice.
20 Elisha ya mutu, aka kuma binne shi. To, mahara Mowabawa sun saba kawo hari a ƙasar Isra’ila a kowace bazara.
And Elisha died, and they buried him. Now the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
21 Wata rana yayinda waɗansu Isra’ilawa suke binne wani mutum, farat ɗaya sai ga mahara; saboda haka suka jefar da gawar mutumin a kabarin Elisha. Da gawar ta taɓa ƙasusuwan Elisha, sai mutumin ya farka, ya tashi ya tsaya da ƙafafunsa.
And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band, and they cast the man into the sepulcher of Elisha. And as soon as the man touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
22 Hazayel sarkin Aram ya musguna wa Isra’ila a duk tsawon mulkin Yehoyahaz.
And Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
23 Amma Ubangiji ya nuna musu alheri, ya ji tausayinsu, ya kuma damu da su saboda alkawarinsa da Ibrahim, Ishaku da Yaƙub. Har yă zuwa yau bai yarda yă hallaka su ko yă shafe su daga gabansa ba.
But Jehovah was gracious to them, and had compassion on them, and had respect to them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither did he cast them from his presence as yet.
24 Hazayel sarkin Aram ya mutu, sai Ben-Hadad ɗansa ya gāje shi.
And Hazael king of Syria died, and Benhadad his son reigned in his stead.
25 Sa’an nan Yowash ya sāke ƙwato garuruwan da Ben-Hadad ya ci da yaƙi a hannun mahaifinsa Yehoyahaz. Sau uku Yehowash ya yi nasara a kansa, ta haka kuwa ya ƙwace garuruwan Isra’ilawa.
And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz again took out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities, which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times Joash smote him, and recovered the cities of Israel.
