2 Sama’ila 5

1 Dukan kabilar Isra’ila suka zo wurin Dawuda a Hebron suka ce, “Mu nama da jininka ne.

Then came all the tribes of Israel to David to Hebron, and spoke, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy 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.’”

Even aforetime, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel; and Jehovah said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel.

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.

And all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Jehovah; and they anointed David 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 began to reign; he reigned 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.

In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months; and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.

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 inhabitants of the land; and they spoke to David, saying, Thou shalt not come in hither, but the blind and the lame will drive thee back; as much as to say, David will not come in hither.

7 Duk da haka, Dawuda ya kame kagarar Sihiyona, wadda ta zama Birnin Dawuda.

But David took the stronghold of Zion, which is the city 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 David said on that day, Whoever smites the Jebusites and gets up to the watercourse, and the lame and the blind hated of David's soul...! Therefore they say, The blind and the lame shall 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 dwelt in the stronghold, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from the Millo and inward.

10 Ya yi ta ƙara ƙarfi, gama Ubangiji Allah Maɗaukaki yana tare da shi.

And David became continually greater; and Jehovah the God of hosts 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 messengers to David, and timber of cedars, and carpenters, and masons; and they built 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 perceived that Jehovah had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom 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 him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron; and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.

14 Waɗannan su ne sunayen’ya’yan da aka haifa masa a can. Shammuwa, Shobab, Natan, Solomon,

And these are the names of those that were born to him 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 the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, and all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard [of it], and went down to the stronghold.

18 To, fa, Filistiyawa suka zo suka baje ko’ina a cikin Kwarin Refayim;

And the Philistines came and spread themselves 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 inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? wilt thou give them into my hand? And Jehovah said to David, Go up; for I will certainly give the Philistines into thy hand.

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 came to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and he said, Jehovah has broken in upon mine enemies before me, as the breaking forth of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baal-perazim.

21 Filistiyawa suka bar gumakansu a can, Dawuda da mutanensa kuwa suka kwashe su.

And they left their images there, 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 yet again, and spread themselves 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 David inquired of Jehovah; and he said, Thou shalt not go up; turn round behind them and come upon them opposite the mulberry-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.”

And it shall be, when thou hearest a sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself; for then will Jehovah have gone forth before thee, to smite 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 so, as Jehovah had commanded him; and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou comest to Gezer.
