Farawa 23
1 Saratu ta yi shekara ɗari da ashirin da bakwai a duniya.
And the life of Sarah was a hundred and twenty-seven years: [these were] the years of the life of Sarah.
2 Ta rasu a Kiriyat Arba (wato, Hebron) a ƙasar Kan’ana, Ibrahim kuwa ya tafi ya yi makokin Saratu, yana kuka saboda ita.
And Sarah died in Kirjath-Arba: that is Hebron, in the land of Canaan. And Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.
3 Sai Ibrahim ya tashi daga gefen matarsa da ta mutu, ya yi magana da Hittiyawa. Ya ce,
And Abraham rose up from before his dead, and spoke to the sons of Heth, saying,
4 “Ni baƙo ne, kuma baƙo a cikinku. Ku sayar mini da wani wuri yă zama wurin binnewa a nan, domin in binne mataccena.”
I am a stranger and a sojourner with you; give me a possession of a sepulchre with you, that I may bury my dead from before me.
5 Hittiyawa suka ce wa Ibrahim,
And the sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,
6 “Ranka yă daɗe, ka saurare mu. Kai babban yerima ne a cikinmu. Ka binne mataccenka a kabari mafi kyau na kaburburanmu. Babu waninmu da zai hana ka kabarinsa don binne mataccenka.”
Hear us, my lord: thou art a prince of God among us: in the choicest of our sepulchres bury thy dead: none of us shall withhold from thee his sepulchre for burying thy dead.
7 Sai Ibrahim ya tashi ya rusuna a gaban mutanen ƙasar, wato, Hittiyawan.
And Abraham rose up, and bowed down to the people of the land, to the sons of Heth,
8 Ya ce musu, “In kuna so in binne mataccena, sai ku ji ni, ku roƙi Efron ɗan Zohar a madadina
and spoke to them, saying, If it be your will that I should bury my dead from before me, hear me, and entreat for me Ephron the son of Zohar,
9 domin yă sayar mini da kogon Makfela, wanda yake nasa, wannan da yake a ƙarshen filinsa. Ku ce masa yă sayar mini a cikakken farashi, yă zama mallakata domin makabarta tsakaninku.”
that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which is his, which is at the end of his field; for the full money let him give it to me amongst you for a possession of a sepulchre.
10 Efron mutumin Hitti yana zaune a cikin mutanensa, sai ya amsa wa Ibrahim a kunnuwan dukan Hittiyawa waɗanda suka zo ƙofar birni.
And Ephron was dwelling among the sons of Heth. And Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham, in the ears of the sons of Heth, [even] of all that went in at the gate of his city, saying,
11 Ya ce, “A’a, ranka yă daɗe, ka ji ni, na ba ka filin, na kuma ba ka kogon da yake cikinsa. Na ba ka shi a gaban mutanena. Ka binne mataccenka.”
No, my lord: hear me. The field give I thee; and the cave that is in it, to thee I give it; before the eyes of the sons of my people give I it thee: bury thy dead.
12 Ibrahim ya sāke rusuna a gaban mutanen ƙasar
And Abraham bowed down before the people of the land;
13 ya ce wa Efron a kunnuwansu, “Ka ji, in ka yarda. Zan biya farashin filin. Ka karɓa daga gare ni don in iya binne mataccena a can.”
and he spoke to Ephron, in the ears of the people of the land, saying, But if only thou wouldst listen to me, I give the money for the field: take [it] of me, and I will bury my dead there.
14 Efron ya ce wa Ibrahim,
And Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,
15 “Ka saurare ni, ranka yă daɗe; darajan filin ya kai shekel ɗari huɗu na azurfa, amma mene ne wannan a tsakanina da kai? Ka binne mataccenka.”
My lord, hearken to me. A field of four hundred shekels of silver, what is that between me and thee? bury therefore thy dead.
16 Ibrahim ya yarda da sharuɗan Efron, sai ya auna masa farashin da ya faɗa a kunnuwan Hittiyawa, shekel ɗari huɗu na azurfa, bisa ga ma’aunin da’yan kasuwa suke amfani da shi a lokacin.
And Abraham hearkened to Ephron; and Abraham weighed to Ephron the money that he had named in the ears of the sons of Heth — four hundred shekels of silver, current with the merchant.
17 Ta haka filin Efron a Makfela kusa da Mamre, wato, filin da kogon a cikinsa, da kuma dukan itatuwan da suke cikin iyakoki filin, aka
So the field of Ephron, which was at Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, and the cave that was in it, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all its borders round about,
18 ba wa Ibrahim a matsayin mallakarsa a gaban dukan Hittiyawa waɗanda suka zo ƙofar birnin.
were assured to Abraham for a possession before the eyes of the sons of Heth, before all who went in at the gate of his city.
19 Bayan wannan Ibrahim ya binne matarsa Saratu a kogon a filin Makfela kusa da Mamre (wanda yake a Hebron) a ƙasar Kan’ana.
And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field at Machpelah, opposite to Mamre: that is Hebron, in the land of Canaan.
20 Da filin da kuma kogon da yake cikinsa, Hittiyawa suka tabbatar wa Ibrahim a matsayin makabarta.
And the field and the cave that was in it were assured to Abraham for a possession of a sepulchre by the sons of Heth.
