Mahukunta 1
1 Bayan da Yoshuwa ya rasu, Isra’ilawa suka tambayi Ubangiji suka ce, “Wane ne zai fara tafiya don yă yaƙi Kan’aniyawa dominmu?”
NOW after the death of Joshua it came to pass, that the children of Israel asked the Lord, saying, Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites first, to fight against them?
2 Sai Ubangiji ya ce, “Yahuda zai tafi. Na riga na ba da ƙasar a hannunsu.”
And the Lord said, Judah shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.
3 Sa’an nan mutane Yahuda suka ce wa mutanen Simeyon “Ku zo tare da mu a yankin da aka ba mu rabon mu don mu yaƙi Kan’aniyawa. Mu ma mu bi ku wurin naku.” Saboda haka mutanen Simeyon suka tafi tare da su.
And Judah said unto Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot. So Simeon went with him.
4 Sa’ad da Yahuda ya fāɗa musu, Ubangiji kuwa ya ba da Kan’aniyawa da Ferizziyawa a hannunsu, suka kuwa kashe mutum dubu goma a Bezek.
And Judah went up; and the Lord delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand: and they slew of them in Bezek ten thousand men.
5 A can suka iske Adoni-Bezek, suka yaƙe shi, suka fatattaki Kan’aniyawa da Ferizziyawa.
And they found Adoni-bezek in Bezek: and they fought against him, and they slew the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
6 Sai Adoni-Bezek ya gudu, amma suka bi shi suka kama shi, suka yayyanka manyan yatsotsinsa na hannu da na ƙafa.
But Adoni-bezek fled; and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
7 Sa’an nan Adoni-Bezek ya ce, “Sarakuna saba’in waɗanda aka yayyanka manyan yatsotsinsu na hannu da na ƙafa, sun yi kalan abinci a ƙarƙashin teburina. Ga shi yanzu Allah ya rama abin da na yi musu.” Suka zo da shi Urushalima, a can kuwa ya mutu.
And Adoni-bezek said, Threescore and ten kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered their meat under my table: as I have done, so God hath requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.
8 Mutanen Yahuda suka yaƙi Urushalima ita ma suka ci ta. Suka karkashe mutanen birnin suka cinna mata wuta.
Now the children of Judah had fought against Jerusalem, and had taken it, and smitten it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
9 Bayan wannan, mutanen Yahuda suka gangara suka yaƙi Kan’aniyawan da suke zaune a ƙasar tudu, Negeb, da gindin tuddai a yammanci.
And afterward the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites, that dwelt in the mountain, and in the south, and in the valley.
10 Suka ci gaba suka yaƙi Kan’aniyawan da suke zaune a Hebron (wadda dā ake kira Kiriyat Arba) suka kuma ci Sheshai, Ahiman da Talmai da yaƙi.
And Judah went against the Canaanites that dwelt in Hebron: (now the name of Hebron before was Kirjath-arba: ) and they slew Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.
11 Daga nan kuma suka ci gaba suka yaƙi mutanen da suke zaune a Debir (da ake kira a dā Kiriyat Sefer).
And from thence he went against the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher:
12 Sai Kaleb ya ce, “Duk wanda ya fāɗa wa Kiriyat Sefer ya kuma ci ta da yaƙi, zan ba shi’yata Aksa yă aura.”
And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjath-sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
13 Sai Otniyel ɗan Kenaz, ƙanen Kaleb ya ci birnin, saboda haka Kaleb ya ba shi’yarsa Aksa ya aura.
And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
14 Wata rana da ta zo wurin Otniyel, sai ta zuga shi yă roƙi mahaifinta fili. Sa’ad da ta sauko daga jakinta, sai Kaleb ya ce mata, “Me zan yi miki?”
And it came to pass, when she came to him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted from off her ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wilt thou?
15 Sai ta ce, “Ka yi mini alheri na musamman. Da yake ka ba ni ƙasa a Negeb, to, sai ka ba ni maɓulɓulan ruwa kuma.” Sai Kaleb ya ba ta maɓulɓulan bisa da kuma na ƙasa.
And she said unto him, Give me a blessing: for thou hast given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the nether springs.
16 Zuriyar surukin Musa, Keniyawa, suka haura daga Birnin dabino tare da mutanen Yahuda don su zauna cikin mutanen Hamadan Yahuda a cikin Negeb kusa da Arad.
And the children of the Kenite, Moses’ father in law, went up out of the city of palm trees with the children of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which lieth in the south of Arad; and they went and dwelt among the people.
17 Sa’an nan mutanen Yahuda suka tafi tare da’yan’uwansu mutanen Simeyon suka fāɗa wa Kan’aniyawan da suke zaune cikin Zefat, suka kuwa hallaka birnin gaba ɗaya. Saboda haka aka kira wurin Horma.
And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they slew the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. And the name of the city was called Hormah.
18 Mutanen Yahuda kuma suka ci Gaza, Ashkelon, da Ekron, kowace birni tare da yankinsa.
Also Judah took Gaza with the coast thereof, and Askelon with the coast thereof, and Ekron with the coast thereof.
19 Ubangiji kuwa yana tare da mutane Yahuda. Suka mallaki ƙasar tudu, amma ba su iya suka kori mutanen daga filaye ba, domin suna da keken yaƙin ƙarfe.
And the Lord was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
20 Yadda Musa ya yi alkawari, sai aka ba Kaleb Hebron, wanda ya kori daga cikinta’ya’ya maza uku na Anak.
And they gave Hebron unto Caleb, as Moses said: and he expelled thence the three sons of Anak.

And the children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites that inhabited Jerusalem; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem unto this day.
22 To, gidan Yusuf suka auka wa Betel, Ubangiji kuwa yana tare da su.
And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Beth-el: and the Lord was with them.
23 Sa’ad da suka aike mutane don su leƙi asirin Betel (da dā ake kira Luz),
And the house of Joseph sent to descry Beth-el. (Now the name of the city before was Luz.)
24 ’yan leƙen asirin suka ga wani ya fito daga birnin sai suka ce masa, “Ka nuna mana yadda za mu shiga birnin, mu kuwa za mu yi maka alheri.”
And the spies saw a man come forth out of the city, and they said unto him, Shew us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we will shew thee mercy.
25 Saboda haka ya nuna musu, suka kuwa hallaka birnin, suka bar mutumin da dukan iyalinsa da rai.
And when he shewed them the entrance into the city, they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let go the man and all his family.
26 Sa’an nan ya tafi ƙasar Hittiyawa, inda ya gina birni ya kuma kira shi Luz, haka ake kira birnin har wa yau.
And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called the name thereof Luz: which is the name thereof unto this day.
27 Amma Manasse ba su kori mutane Bet-Sheyan ko Ta’anak ko Dor ko Ibileyam ko Megiddo tare da ƙauyukansu ba, gama Kan’aniyawa sun dāge su zauna a wannan ƙasa.
Neither did Manasseh drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and her towns, nor Taanach and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns: but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
28 Sa’ad da Isra’ila ta yi ƙarfi, sai suka tilasta Kan’aniyawa yin aikin gandu amma ba su kore su gaba ɗaya ba.
And it came to pass, when Israel was strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute, and did not utterly drive them out.

Neither did Asher drive out the inhabitants of Accho, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob:

But the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: for they did not drive them out.
33 Haka kuma Naftali bai kori waɗanda suke zaune a Bet-Shemesh ko Bet-Anat; amma mutanen Naftali su ma suna zama a ciki Kan’aniyawa mazaunan ƙasar, waɗanda suke zaune a Bet-Shemesh da Bet-Anat kuwa suka zama masu yi musu aikin gandu.
Neither did Naphtali drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth-anath; but he dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and of Beth-anath became tributaries unto them.

And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the mountain: for they would not suffer them to come down to the valley:

But the Amorites would dwell in mount Heres in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim: yet the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, so that they became tributaries.

And the coast of the Amorites was from the going up to Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.
