Farawa 20
1 Daga Mamre, Ibrahim ya kama hanya ya nufi wajajen Negeb, ya zauna a tsakanin Kadesh da Shur. Ya zauna a Gerar na ɗan lokaci,
And Abraham journeys from there toward the land of the south, and dwells between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourns in Gerar;
2 a can ne Ibrahim ya ce game da matarsa Saratu, “Ita’yar’uwata ce.” Sai Abimelek sarkin Gerar ya aiko a kawo masa Saratu.
and Abraham says concerning his wife Sarah, “She is my sister”; and Abimelech king of Gerar sends and takes Sarah.
3 Amma wata rana da dad dare Allah ya zo wa Abimelek a cikin mafarki ya ce masa, “Kai da matacce ɗaya kuke, saboda matar da ka ɗauka. Ita matar aure ce.”
And God comes to Abimelech in a dream of the night and says to him, “Behold, you [are] a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken—and she married to a husband.”
4 Abimelek dai bai riga ya kusace ta ba tukuna, saboda haka ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji za ka hallaka al’umma marar laifi?
And Abimelech has not drawn near to her, and he says, “Lord, do you also slay a righteous nation?
5 Ba shi ne ya ce mini, ‘Ita’yar’uwata ba ce,’ ita ma ba tă ce, ‘Shi ɗan’uwana ba ne’? Na yi haka da kyakkyawan nufi da hannuwa masu tsabta.”
Has he not himself said to me, She [is] my sister! And she, even she herself, said, He [is] my brother; in the integrity of my heart, and in the innocence of my hands, I have done this.”
6 Sai Allah ya ce masa a cikin mafarki “I, na san ka yi wannan da kyakkyawan nufi, saboda haka ne na kiyaye ka daga yin mini zunubi. Shi ya sa ban bar ka ka taɓa ta ba.
And God says to him in the dream, “Indeed, I have known that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I withhold you, even I, from sinning against Me, therefore I have not permitted you to come against her;
7 Yanzu ka komar da matar mutumin, gama shi annabi ne, zai kuma yi maka addu’a, za ka kuwa rayu. In ba ka komar da ita ba fa, ka sani tabbatacce kai da dukan abin da yake naka za ku mutu.”
and now send back the man’s wife, for he [is] inspired, and he prays for you, and you live; and if you do not send back, know that dying you die, you and all that you have.”
8 Kashegari da sassafe, sai Abimelek ya tara dukan fadawansa, ya faɗa musu duk abin da ya faru, suka ji tsoro ƙwarai da gaske.
And Abimelech rises early in the morning, and calls for all his servants, and speaks all these words in their ears; and the men fear exceedingly;
9 Sa’an nan Abimelek ya kira Ibrahim ciki ya ce, “Me ke nan ka yi mana? Ta wace hanya ce na yi maka laifi har da ka kawo irin wannan babban laifi a kaina da kuma masarautata? Ka yi mini abubuwan da bai kamata a yi ba.”
and Abimelech calls for Abraham and says to him, “What have you done to us? And what have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me, and on my kingdom, a great sin? Works which are not done you have done with me.”
10 Abimelek ya kuma ce wa Ibrahim, “Me ya sa ka yi wannan?”
Abimelech also says to Abraham, “What have you seen that you have done this thing?”
11 Ibrahim ya ce, “Na ce a raina, ‘Tabbatacce babu tsoron Allah a wannan wuri, za su kuwa kashe ni saboda matata.’
And Abraham says, “Because I said, Surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they have slain me for the sake of my wife;
12 Ban da haka, tabbatacce ita’yar’uwata ce,’yar mahaifina, ko da yake ba daga uwata ba, ta kuma zama matata.
and also, she is truly my sister, daughter of my father, only not daughter of my mother, and she becomes my wife;
13 Sa’ad da Allah ya sa na tashi daga gidan mahaifina na ce mata, ‘Wannan shi ne yadda za ki nuna mini ƙaunarki. Duk inda muka tafi, ki ce game da ni, “Shi ɗan’uwana ne.”’”
and it comes to pass, when God has caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I say to her, This [is] your kindness which you do with me: at every place to where we come, say of me, He [is] my brother.”
14 Sai Abimelek ya kawo awaki da shanu da bayi maza da mata, ya ba wa Ibrahim, ya kuma komar da Saratu matarsa gare shi.
And Abimelech takes sheep and oxen, and servants and handmaids, and gives to Abraham, and sends back his wife Sarah to him;
15 Abimelek ya kuma ce, “Ƙasata tana gabanka, ka zauna a duk inda kake so.”
and Abimelech says, “Behold, my land [is] before you, where it is good in your eyes, dwell”;
16 Ga Saratu kuwa ya ce, “Ina ba wa ɗan’uwanki shekel dubu na azurfa, shaida ce ta tabbatarwa a idanun dukan waɗanda suke tare da ke, da kuma a gaban kowa cewa ba ki da laifi.”
and to Sarah he has said, “Behold, I have given one thousand pieces of silver to your brother; behold, it is to you a covering of eyes, to all who are with you”; and by all this she is reasoned with.
17 Sai Ibrahim ya yi addu’a ga Allah, Allah kuma ya warkar da Abimelek, da matarsa da bayinsa mata domin su haihu,
And Abraham prays to God, and God heals Abimelech and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bear:
18 gama Ubangiji ya rufe kowace mahaifa a gidan Abimelek saboda Saratu, matar Ibrahim.
for YHWH restraining had restrained every womb of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
