Maimaitawar Shari’a 20
1 Sa’ad da kuka tafi yaƙi da abokan gābanku, kuka ga dawakai da kekunan yaƙi da kuma mayaƙan da suka fi ku yawa, kada ku ji tsoronsu, domin Ubangiji Allahnku, wanda ya fitar da ku daga Masar zai kasance tare da ku.
When thou shalt go out to wage war against thine enemy, and shalt see the horses and chariots of a people more in number than thou, thou shalt not be afraid of them, —for, Yahweh thy God, is with thee, who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
2 Sa’ad da kuke gab da kama yaƙi, sai firist yă zo gaba yă yi wa mayaƙan jawabi.
And it shall be, when ye are coming nigh unto the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak unto the people;
3 Zai ce, “Ku ji, ya Isra’ila, yau kuna gab da kama da abokan gābanku. Kada ku karai, ko ku ji tsoro; kada ku firgita, ko ku yi rawar jiki a gabansu.
and shall say unto them, —Hear, O Israel, ye are coming near to-day, unto battle against your enemies, —let not your heart faint do not fear nor start nor quake because of them.
4 Gama Ubangiji Allahnku, yana tafe tare da ku, zai yaƙi abokan gābanku dominku, yă ba ku nasara.”
For Yahweh your God, is he that is going with you, —to fight for you against your enemies to save you.
5 Hafsoshi za su ce wa mayaƙa, “Ko akwai wanda ya gina sabon gida bai kuma buɗe shi ba? Bari yă tafi gida, kada yă mutu a yaƙi, wani dabam yă buɗe shi.
Then shall the officers speak unto the people saying, Who is the man that hath built a new house and hath not dedicated it? let him go and return unto his house, —lest he die in the battle, and, another man dedicate it.
6 Ko akwai wani da ya shuka inabi, bai kuwa fara jin daɗinsa ba? Bari yă tafi gida, kada yă mutu a yaƙi, wani dabam yă ji daɗinsa.
And who is the man that hath planted a vineyard and hath not thrown it open? let him go and return unto his house, —lest he die in the battle, and another man, throw it open.
7 Ko akwai wani da aka yi masa alkawarin mata, bai kuwa aure ta ko ba? Bari yă tafi gida, kada yă mutu a yaƙi, wani dabam yă aure ta.”
And who is the man that hath betrothed a wife and hath not taken her? let him go and return unto his house, —lest he die in the battle, and, another man, take her.
8 Sa’an nan hafsoshin za su ƙara da cewa, “Ko akwai wani da yake tsoro, ko ya karai? Bari yă tafi gida don kada’yan’uwansa su karai su ma.”
Then shall the officers further speak unto the people, and say—Who is the man that is fearful and faint-hearted? let him go and return unto his house, —lest his brethren’s heart melt as well as his heart.
9 Sa’ad da hafsoshin suka gama magana da mayaƙan, sai su naɗa komandodi a kansu.
And it shall be, when the officers have made an end of speaking unto the people, then shall they appoint captains of hosts at the head of the people.
10 Sa’ad da kuka haura don ku fāɗa wa birni, sai ku fara neman garin da salama.
When thou shalt come nigh unto a city, to fight against it, —then shalt thou proclaim unto it—peace,
11 In sun yarda da salamar, suka buɗe ƙofofin garinsu, to, sai dukan mutanen da suke cikinsa su yi muku aikin gandu, su kuma yi muku aiki.
and it shall be if peace, be the answer it giveth thee, and it open unto thee, then shall it be, that, all the people that are found therein, shall become thy tributaries and shall serve thee.
12 In kuwa suka ƙi salamar, suka fāɗa muku da yaƙi, sai ku yi wa wannan birni ƙawanya.
But if it will not make peace with thee, but will make war with thee, then shalt thou lay siege to it;
13 Sa’ad da Ubangiji Allahnku ya ba da shi cikin hannunku, sai ku kashe dukan mazan da suke cikinsa da takobi.
and Yahweh thy God will deliver it into thy hand, —and thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword;
14 Game da mata, yara, dabbobi da kuma sauran abubuwan da suke cikin birnin, za ku iya kwasa waɗannan a matsayin ganima wa kanku. Za ku kuma yi amfani da ganimar da Ubangiji Allahnku ya ba ku daga abokan gābanku.
but the women and the little ones and the cattle and all that shall be in the city—all the spoil thereof, shalt thou take as thy prey, —so shalt thou eat the spoil of thine enemies, whom Yahweh thy God hath delivered unto thee.
15 Haka za ku yi da dukan biranen da suke nesa da ku, waɗanda kuma ba na al’ummai da suke kusa ba.
Thus, shalt thou do unto all the cities that are very far away from thee, —which are not of the cities of those nations.
16 Amma fa, a cikin biranen al’ummai da Ubangiji Allahnku yake ba ku gādo, kada ku bar wani abu mai numfashi da rai.
But of the cities of these peoples which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee as an inheritance, shalt thou not save alive, any breathing thing.
17 Ku hallaka su ƙaƙaf, wato, Hittiyawa, Amoriyawa, Kan’aniyawa, Ferizziyawa, Hiwiyawa da kuma Yebusiyawa, yadda Ubangiji Allahnku ya umarce ku.
But thou shalt devote them to destruction—the Hittites and the Amorites the Canaanites and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, —as Yahweh thy God hath commanded thee:
18 In ba haka ba, za su koya muku ku bi dukan abubuwan banƙyaman da suke yi, ta yin sujada wa allolinsu, ta haka kuwa ku yi wa Ubangiji Allahnku zunubi.
lest they teach you to do, according to all their abominations, which they have done unto their gods, —and so ye sin against Yahweh your God.
19 Sa’ad da kuka yi wa birni ƙawanya kuka daɗe, kuka yi ta yaƙi don ku ci shi, kada ku sassare itatuwansa da gatari, domin za ku ci’ya’yansu. Kada ku sassare su. Gama itatuwan da suke cikin gonaki, ba mutane ne da za ku yi musu ƙawanya?
When thou shalt besiege a city for many days to fight against it, to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees thereof by wielding against them an axe, when of them, thou mightest eat, them, there-fore shalt thou not cut down, —for, Is the tree of the field, a man, that it should enter, because of thee into the siege?
20 Amma fa, za ku iya sassare itatuwan da kuka sani ba sa ba da’ya’ya, ku kuma yi amfani da su don ayyukan gina ƙawanyar, sai an ci birnin da yaƙi.
Nevertheless, the tree of which thou knowest that it is, not a tree yielding food, the same, mayest thou destroy, and cut down, —and so build up a siege-work against the city which is making war with thee, until thou hast subdued it.
