2 Sama’ila 23
1 Waɗannan su ne kalmomin Dawuda na ƙarshe. “Abubuwan da Dawuda ɗan Yesse ya yi magana a kai, abubuwan da mutumin da Mafi Ɗaukaka ya girmama. Mutumin da Allah na Yaƙub ya zaɓa yă zama sarki, wanda kuma yake mawaƙi waƙoƙin Isra’ila.
Now these [be] the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, and the man [who was] raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel, said,
2 “Ruhun Ubangiji ya yi magana ta wurina; maganarsa tana a harshena.
The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word [was] in my tongue.
3 Allah na Isra’ila ya yi magana, Dutsen Isra’ila ya ce mini, ‘Sa’ad da wani ya yi mulkin mutane da adalci, sa’ad da ya yi mulki da tsoron Allah,
The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men [must be] just, ruling in the fear of God.
4 yana kama da hasken safiya a safiya marar girgije, kamar haske bayan ruwan sama da yakan sa ciyawa ta tsiro daga ƙasa.’
And [he shall be] as the light of the morning, [when] the sun riseth, [even] a morning without clouds; [as] the tender grass [springing] out of the earth by clear shining after rain.
5 “Ashe, gidana bai daidaita da Allah ba? Ashe, Allah bai yi madawwamiyar yarjejjeniya da ni shiryayye da ɗaurarre a kowane sashi ba? Ba zai kawo ga cikar cetona yă kuma biya duk bukatuna ba?
Although my house [be] not so with God; yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all [things], and sure: for [this is] all my salvation, and all [my] desire, although he make [it] not to grow.
6 Amma za a jefar da masu mugunta duka kamar ƙayayyuwan da ba a tattara da hannu.
But [the sons] of Belial [shall be] all of them as thorns thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands:
7 Duk wanda ya taɓa ƙaya yakan yi amfani da wani ƙarfe ne ko sandar māshi; akan ƙone su inda suke a zube.”
But the man [that] shall touch them must be fenced with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire in the [same] place.
8 Waɗannan su ne sunayen jarumawan Dawuda. Yosheb-Basshebet, mutumin Takemon ɗaya daga cikin shugabanni Uku; ya ɗaga māshinsa ya kashe mutum ɗari takwas a lokaci guda.
These [be] the names of the mighty men whom David had: The Tachmonite that sat in the seat, chief among the captains; the same [was] Adino the Eznite: [he lift up his spear] against eight hundred, whom he slew at one time.
9 Na biye da shi a matsayi cikin jarumawa ukun nan, shi ne Eleyazar ɗan Dodo, mutumin Aho. Eleyazar ya kasance tare da Dawuda sa’ad da suka fuskanci Filistiyawa waɗanda suka taru a Fas Dammim don yaƙi. Mutanen Isra’ila suka gudu,
And after him [was] Eleazar the son of Dodo the Ahohite, [one] of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines [that] were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away:
10 amma ya yi tsayi daka, ya bugi Filistiyawa sai da hannunsa ya gaji har ya liƙe wa māshinsa. Ubangiji kuwa ya sa aka yi babban nasara a ranar. Sauran sojoji suka komo wurin Eleyazar, don kawai su washe ganima.
He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave unto the sword: and the LORD wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil.
11 Na biye da Agiyi a matsayi, shi ne Shamma ɗan Agi, mutumin Harar. Sa’ad da Filistiyawa suka taru a wani wurin da take gona cike da waken barewa, sai rundunar Isra’ila suka gudu daga Filistiyawa.
And after him [was] Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was a piece of ground full of lentiles: and the people fled from the Philistines.
12 Amma Shamma ya yi tsayi daka a tsakiyar gonar. Ya kāre ta, ya kuma bugi Filistiyawa, Ubangiji kuwa ya sa aka yi babban nasara.
But he stood in the midst of the ground, and defended it, and slew the Philistines: and the LORD wrought a great victory.
13 A lokacin girbi, uku daga cikin shugabanni talatin suka gangaro zuwa wurin Dawuda a kogon Adullam. A lokacin kuwa sojojin Filistiyawa sun kafa sansani a Kwarin Refayim.
And three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam: and the troop of the Philistines pitched in the valley of Rephaim.
14 Dawuda kuwa yana a mafaka. Wata ƙungiyar sojojin Filistiyawa kuma suna Betlehem.
And David [was] then in an hold, and the garrison of the Philistines [was] then [in] Beth-lehem.
15 Dawuda ya ji ƙishirwa, sai ya ce, “Kash, da a ce wani yă samo mini ruwa daga rijiyar da take kusa da bakin ƙofar Betlehem mana!”
And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Beth-lehem, which [is] by the gate!
16 Sai jarumawa ukun nan suka yi kukan ƙura, suka sheƙa a guje suka ratsa cikin sansanin Filistiyawa, suka ɗebo ruwa daga rijiyar da take kusa da bakin ƙofar Betlehem, suka kawo wa Dawuda. Amma Dawuda ya ƙi yă sha; a maimako sai ya zuba shi a gaban Ubangiji.
And the three mighty men brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Beth-lehem, that [was] by the gate, and took [it], and brought [it] to David: nevertheless he would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto the LORD.
17 Sai ya ce, “Ubangiji yă sawwaƙe, in yi sha! Ba jinin mutanen da suka tafi a bakin ransu ba ne?” Dawuda kuwa bai sha ruwan ba. Irin abubuwan da jarumawa ukun nan suka yi ke nan.
And he said, Be it far from me, O LORD, that I should do this: [is not this] the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of their lives? therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mighty men.
18 Abishai, ɗan’uwan Yowab, ɗan Zeruhiya shi shugaban Ukun nan. Ya ɗauki māshinsa ya kashe mutane ɗari uku, ta haka ya zama sananne kamar Ukun nan.
And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief among three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred, [and] slew [them], and had the name among three.
19 Ashe, ba a girmama shi fiye da Ukun ba? Ya zama komandansu, ko da yake ba a haɗa shi a cikinsu ba.
Was he not most honourable of three? therefore he was their captain: howbeit he attained not unto the [first] three.
20 Benahiya, ɗan Yehohiyada mutumin Kabzeyel shi ma jarumi ne sosai, ya yi nasarori masu yawa. Ya bugi ƙwararrun jarumawan Mowab guda biyu. Ya kuma shiga rami wata ranar da ake ƙanƙara, ya kashe zaki.
And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man, of Kabzeel, who had done many acts, he slew two lionlike men of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow:
21 Ya kuma buge wani jibgaggen mutumin Masar. Duk da māshin da mutumin Masar yana riƙe a hannunsa, Benahiya ya kai masa hari da kulki. Ya ƙwace māshin daga hannunsa, ya kuma kashe shi da māshin.
And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and slew him with his own spear.
22 Irin nasarorin da Benahiya ɗan Yehohiyada ya yi ke nan; shi ma jarumi ne sosai kamar jarumawan nan uku.
These [things] did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had the name among three mighty men.
23 Aka fi ba shi girma fiye da talatin ɗin nan, amma ba ya cikin ukun. Dawuda ya sa shi yă zama ɗaya daga cikin masu tsaron lafiyarsa.
He was more honourable than the thirty, but he attained not to the [first] three. And David set him over his guard.
