2 Sama’ila 5
1 Dukan kabilar Isra’ila suka zo wurin Dawuda a Hebron suka ce, “Mu nama da jininka ne.
Then all the tribes of Israel came to David in Hebron and said, Truly, we are your bone and your flesh.
2 A dā da Shawulu yake sarauta a bisanmu, kai ne kake bi Isra’ilawa zuwa yaƙe-yaƙensu. Ubangiji kuwa ya ce maka, ‘Za ka zama makiyayi mutanena Isra’ila, za ka kuma zama sarkinsu.’”
In the past when Saul was king over us, it was you who went at the head of Israel when they went out or came in: and the Lord said to you, You are to be the keeper of my people Israel and their ruler.
3 Sa’ad da dukan dattawan Isra’ila suka zo wurin Sarki Dawuda a Hebron, sarki ya yi yarjejjeniya da su a gaban Ubangiji, suka kuwa naɗa Dawuda sarki bisa Isra’ila.
So all the responsible men of Israel came to the king at Hebron; and King David made an agreement with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they put the holy oil on David and made him king over Israel.
4 Dawuda yana da shekara talatin ɗaya sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki shekara arba’in.
David was thirty years old when he became king, and he was king for forty years,
5 A Hebron ya yi mulki a bisa Yahuda shekara bakwai da wata shida, a Urushalima kuma ya yi mulki a bisa Isra’ila da Yahuda shekara talatin da uku.
Ruling over Judah in Hebron for seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem, over all Israel and Judah, for thirty-three years.
6 Sarki da mutanensa suka tafi Urushalima don su kai wa Yebusiyawan da suke zaune a can hari, Yebusiyawa suka ce wa Dawuda, “Ba za ka shiga nan ba; ko makafi da guragu kaɗai ma za su kore ka.” Suka yi tsammani suna cewa, “Dawuda ba zai iya shiga can ba.”
And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the people of the land: and they said to David, You will not come in here, but the blind and the feeble-footed will keep you out; for they said, David will not be able to come in here.
7 Duk da haka, Dawuda ya kame kagarar Sihiyona, wadda ta zama Birnin Dawuda.
But David took the strong place of Zion, which is the town of David.
8 A ranar, Dawuda ya ce, “Duk wanda zai kame Yebusiyawa, dole yă yi amfani da wuriyar ruwa don yă kai ga waɗannan ‘guragu da makafi’ waɗanda suke abokan gāban Dawuda.” Shi ya sa suka ce, “‘Makafi da guragu’ ba za su shiga fadan sarki ba.”
And that day David said, Whoever makes an attack on the Jebusites, let him go up by the water-pipe, and put to death all the blind and feeble-footed who are hated by David. And this is why they say, The blind and feeble-footed may not come into the house.
9 Sai Dawuda ya zauna a kagarar, ya kuma kira ta Birnin Dawuda. Ya gina wuraren da suke kewaye da ita, tun daga madogaran gini zuwa ciki.
So David took the strong tower for his living-place, naming it the town of David. And David took in hand the building of the town all round, starting from the Millo.
10 Ya yi ta ƙara ƙarfi, gama Ubangiji Allah Maɗaukaki yana tare da shi.
And David became greater and greater; for the Lord, the God of armies, was with him.
11 To, Hiram sarkin Taya ya aiki manzanni wurin Dawuda tare da gumaguman itacen al’ul, da kafintoci, da kuma maginan duwatsu, suka kuwa gina wa Dawuda fada.
And Hiram, king of Tyre, sent men to David, with cedar-trees and woodworkers and stoneworkers: and they made David a house.
12 Dawuda kuwa ya gane Ubangiji ya naɗa shi sarki bisa Isra’ila, ya kuma ɗaukaka masarautarsa saboda mutanensa Isra’ila.
And David saw that the Lord had made his position safe as king over Israel, and that he had made his kingdom great because of his people Israel.
13 Bayan ya bar Hebron, Dawuda ya ƙara ɗauko wa kansa waɗansu ƙwarƙwarai da mata a Urushalima. Aka haifa masa’ya’ya maza da mata.
And David took more women and wives in Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron: and he had more sons and daughters.
14 Waɗannan su ne sunayen’ya’yan da aka haifa masa a can. Shammuwa, Shobab, Natan, Solomon,
These are the names of those whose birth took place in Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab and Nathan and Solomon
15 Ibhar, Elishuwa, Nefeg, Yafiya,
And Ibhar and Elishua and Nepheg and Japhia
16 Elishama, Eliyada da Elifelet.
And Elishama and Eliada and Eliphelet.
17 Da Filistiyawa suka ji labari an shafe Dawuda sarki a bisa Isra’ila, sai suka haura da ƙarfi sosai don su nema shi, amma Dawuda ya ji labarin sai ya gangara zuwa mafaka.
And when the Philistines had news that David had been made king over Israel, they all went up in search of David; and David, hearing of it, went down to the strong place.
18 To, fa, Filistiyawa suka zo suka baje ko’ina a cikin Kwarin Refayim;
And when the Philistines came, they went in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.
19 saboda haka Dawuda ya nemi nufin Ubangiji ya ce, “In tafi in kai wa Filistiya hari? Za ka bashe su a hannuna?” Ubangiji ya amsa masa ya ce, “Je ka, gama tabbatacce zan bashe Filistiyawa a hannunka.”
And David, desiring directions from the Lord, said, Am I to go up against the Philistines? will you give them up into my hands? And the Lord said, Go up, for I will certainly give up the Philistines into your hands.
20 Saboda haka Dawuda ya tafi Ba’al-Ferazim, a can ya ci su da yaƙi. Sai ya ce, “Kamar yadda ruwa yakan fasu, haka Ubangiji ya kakkarya abokan gābana a gabana.” Saboda haka aka kira wurin Ba’al-Ferazim.
And David went to Baal-perazim, and overcame them there; and he said, The Lord has let the forces fighting against me be broken before me as a wall is broken by rushing waters. So that place was named Baal-perazim.
21 Filistiyawa suka bar gumakansu a can, Dawuda da mutanensa kuwa suka kwashe su.
And the Philistines, when they went in flight, did not take their images with them, and David and his men took them away.
22 Har yanzu Filistiyawa suka sāke haurawa suka bazu a Kwarin Refayim;
And the Philistines came up again, and went in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.
23 saboda haka Dawuda ya nemi nufin Ubangiji, ya kuwa ce, “Kada ka haura kai tsaye, amma ka kewaya ta bayansu ka fāɗa musu a gaban itatuwan balsam.
And when David went for directions to the Lord, he said, You are not to go up against them in front; but make a circle round them from the back and come on them opposite the spice-trees.
24 Da zarar ka ji tafiya kamar na takawar sojoji tana a bisan itatuwan balsam, sai ka yi maza, gama wannan alama ce cewa Ubangiji ya sha gabanka don yă karkashe sojojin Filistiyawa.”
Then at the sound of footsteps in the tops of the trees, go forward quickly, for the Lord has gone out before you to overcome the army of the Philistines.
25 Saboda haka Dawuda ya aikata yadda Ubangiji ya umarce shi, ya kuma karkashe Filistiyawa tun daga Geba har zuwa Gezer.
And David did as the Lord had said; and he overcame the Philistines, attacking them from Gibeon to near Gezer.
