< Mahukunta 15 >
1 Daga baya, a lokacin girbin alkama, Samson ya ɗauki ɗan akuya ya tafi yă ziyarci matarsa. Sai ya ce, “Zan in shiga ɗakin matata.” Amma mahaifinta ya hana shi shiga.
And it came to pass, after a time, in the days of wheat-harvest, that Samson went to visit his wife, with a kid, and he said—I will go in unto my wife, in the chamber. But her father would not suffer him to go in.
2 Ya ce wa, “Na tabbata ba ka sonta sam-sam, don haka na ba da ita ga abokinka. Ba ƙanuwarta ta fi kyau ba? Ka ɗauke ta a maimako.”
And her father said—I, thought, that thou didst, hate, her, so I gave her to thy companion, —Is not, her younger sister, fairer than she? Pray let her be thine, in her stead.
3 Samson kuwa ya ce musu, “A wannan lokaci ina da iko in rama a kan Filistiyawa; tabbatacce zan ji musu.”
And Samson said of them, I shall be more blameless, this time, than the Philistines, —though I should do them a mischief.
4 Saboda haka ya tafi ya kama yanyawa ɗari uku ya ɗaura wutsiyoyinsu wutsiya da wutsiya. Sa’an nan ya daure acibalbal a tsakanin ko waɗanne wutsiya biyu,
So Samson went, and caught three hundred jackals, —and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put one torch between the two tails, in the midst.
5 sai ya sa wa acibalbal wuta, ya saki yanyawan suka shiga gonakin Filistiyawa. Suka ƙone dammunan hatsi da hatsin da yake tsaye, tare da gonakin inabi da na zaitun.
And, when he had set fire to the torches, he let them go into the standing corn of the Philistines, —and set fire, both to the stack of sheaves and to the standing corn, and besides to the olive plantation.
6 Filistiyawa suka yi tambaya suka ce, “Wane ne ya yi wannan abu?” Sai aka ce musu, “Ai, Samson ne surukin mutumin Timna, domin an ba wa abokinsa matarsa.” Saboda haka Filistiyawa suka haura suka je suka ƙone ta da mahaifinta ƙurmus da wuta.
Then said the Philistines—Who hath done this? And they said—Samson, son-in-law of the Timnite, because he hath taken his wife, and given her to his companion. So the Philistines went up and burned her and her father, with fire.
7 Samson ya ce musu, “Tun da kun aikata wannan, ba zan bari ba har sai na ɗau fansa a kanku.”
And Samson said to them, Though ye do the like of this, yet will I be avenged upon you, and, afterwards, will I cease.
8 Ya kuwa fāɗa musu ya kuma karkashe su da yawa. Sa’an nan ya gangara ya zauna a kogo a dutsen Etam.
So he smote them, leg on thigh, with a great smiting, —and went down and dwelt in a cleft of the crag Etam.
9 Filistiyawa suka haura suka yi sansani a Yahuda, suka bazu kusa da Lehi.
Then went up the Philistines, and encamped in Judah, —and were spread abroad in Lehi.
10 Mutanen Yahuda suka ce, “Me ya sa kuka zo mana da yaƙi?” Sai suka ce, “Mun zo ne mu kama Samson, a matsayin fursunan yaƙi, mu yi masa kamar yadda ya yi mana.”
And the men of Judah said, Wherefore have ye come up against us? And they said—To bind Samson, are we come up, to do unto him as he hath done unto us.
11 Sa’an nan mutane dubu uku daga Yahuda suka gangara wajen Samson a kogo a dutsen Etam. Suka ce masa, “Ba ka san cewa Filistiyawa ne suke mulkinmu ba? Me ke nan ka yi mana?” Ya ce musu, “Na ɗan yi musu abin da suka yi mini ne.”
Then went down three thousand men out of Judah, unto the cleft of the crag Etam, and said unto Samson—Knowest thou not that the Philistines are lording it over us? What, then, is this thou hast done to us? And he said unto them, As they have done to me, so, have I done to them.
12 Suka ce masa, “To, mun zo ne mu daure ka mu kai wa Filistiyawa.” Samson ya ce, “Ku rantse mini ba za ku kashe ni da kanku ba.”
And they said to him—To bind thee, are we come down, to deliver thee into the hand of the Philistines. And Samson said to them, Swear to me, that ye will not fall upon me, yourselves.
13 Suka ce, “Mun yarda, za mu dai daure ka mu ba da kai gare su. Ba za mu kashe ka ba.” Saboda haka suka daure shi da sababbin igiyoyi biyu, suka saukar da shi daga dutsen.
And they answered him, saying—Nay; but we will, bind, thee, and deliver thee into their hand, but we will not, put thee to death. So they bound him with two new ropes, and took him up from the crag.
14 Yayinda ya zo gab da Lehi, sai Filistiyawa suka sheƙo a guje da ihu suka nufo shi. Ruhun Ubangiji kuwa ya sauko da iko a kansa. Igiyoyin da suke daure a hannuwansa kuwa suka zama kamar abin da wuta ta babbaka, suka tsintsinke suka zuba daga hannuwansa.
He, was coming in as far as Lehi, and, the Philistines, came shouting to meet him, —when the Spirit of Yahweh came suddenly over him, and the ropes that were upon his arms became as threads of flax which have been ignited with fire, so that his bonds melted from off his hands.
15 Da ya samo muƙamuƙin jaki, ya ɗauka, sai ya karkashe mutane dubu ɗaya.
Then found he the jawbone of an ass newly-slain, —so he thrust forth his hand, and took it, and smote therewith, a thousand men.
16 Sa’an nan Samson ya ce, “Da muƙamuƙin jaki na mai da su jakuna. Da muƙamuƙin jaki na kashe mutum dubu.”
And Samson said, With the jawbone of an ass, —have I piled them up in heaps! With the jawbone of an ass, have I smitten a thousand men!
17 Da ya gama magana, sai ya jefar da muƙamuƙin; aka ba wa wannan wuri suna Ramat Lehi.
And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand, —and called the name of that place, Ramath-lehi.
18 Saboda ƙishirwa ta kama shi ƙwarai, sai ya ce wa Ubangiji, “Ka ba bawanka wannan babbar nasara. To, sai in mutu da ƙishirwa, har in shiga a hannun marasa kaciyan nan su kashe ni?”
And he was sore athirst, so he cried unto Yahweh, and said, Thou thyself, hast given, into the hand of thy servant, this great salvation, —and, now, must I die of thirst, and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?
19 Sa’an nan Allah ya buɗe wani rami a Lehi, ruwa kuwa ya fito daga ciki. Da Samson ya sha, sai ƙarfinsa ya dawo, ya kuma wartsake. Aka sa wa wannan maɓulɓula suna En Hakkore, yana nan a Lehi har wa yau.
So then God clave open the hollow that is in Lehi, and there came therefrom water, and he drank, and his spirit came back, and he revived, —for this cause, called he the name thereof—Ain-hakkore, which is in Lehi, until this day.
20 Samson kuwa ya shugabanci Isra’ila shekara ashirin a zamanin Filistiyawa.
And he judged Israel, in the days of the Philistines, twenty years.
