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.
But after a while, in the time of wheat harvest, Samson visited his wife with a young goat. He said, “I will go in to my wife’s room.” But her father wouldn’t allow 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.”
Her father said, “I most certainly thought that you utterly hated her; therefore I gave her to your companion. Isn’t her younger sister more beautiful than she? Please, take her instead.”
3 Samson kuwa ya ce musu, “A wannan lokaci ina da iko in rama a kan Filistiyawa; tabbatacce zan ji musu.”
Samson said to them, “This time I will be blameless in the case of the Philistines when I harm them.”
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,
Samson went and caught three hundred foxes, and took torches, and turned tail to tail, and put a torch in the middle between every two tails.
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.
When he had set the torches on fire, he let them go into the standing grain of the Philistines, and burned up both the shocks and the standing grain, and also the olive groves.
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 the Philistines said, “Who has done this?” They said, “Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he has taken his wife and given her to his companion.” The Philistines came 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.”
Samson said to them, “If you behave like this, surely I will take revenge on you, and after that I will cease.”
8 Ya kuwa fāɗa musu ya kuma karkashe su da yawa. Sa’an nan ya gangara ya zauna a kogo a dutsen Etam.
He struck them hip and thigh with a great slaughter; and he went down and lived in the cave in Etam’s rock.
9 Filistiyawa suka haura suka yi sansani a Yahuda, suka bazu kusa da Lehi.
Then the Philistines went up, encamped in Judah, and spread themselves 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.”
The men of Judah said, “Why have you come up against us?” They said, “We have come up to bind Samson, to do to him as he has done to 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 three thousand men of Judah went down to the cave in Etam’s rock, and said to Samson, “Don’t you know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What then is this that you have done to us?” He said to them, “As they did to me, so I have 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.”
They said to him, “We have come down to bind you, that we may deliver you into the hand of the Philistines.” Samson said to them, “Swear to me that you will not attack 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.
They spoke to him, saying, “No, but we will bind you securely and deliver you into their hands; but surely we will not kill you.” They bound him with two new ropes, and brought him up from the rock.
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.
When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they met him. Then the LORD’s Spirit came mightily on him, and the ropes that were on his arms became as flax that was burned with fire; and his bands dropped from off his hands.
15 Da ya samo muƙamuƙin jaki, ya ɗauka, sai ya karkashe mutane dubu ɗaya.
He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, put out his hand, took it, and struck a thousand men with it.
16 Sa’an nan Samson ya ce, “Da muƙamuƙin jaki na mai da su jakuna. Da muƙamuƙin jaki na kashe mutum dubu.”
Samson said, “With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps on heaps; with the jawbone of a donkey I have struck a thousand men.”
17 Da ya gama magana, sai ya jefar da muƙamuƙin; aka ba wa wannan wuri suna Ramat Lehi.
When he had finished speaking, he threw the jawbone out of his hand; and that place was called 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?”
He was very thirsty, and called on the LORD and said, “You have given this great deliverance by the hand of your servant; and now shall I die of thirst, and fall into the hands 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.
But God split the hollow place that is in Lehi, and water came out of it. When he had drunk, his spirit came again, and he revived. Therefore its name was called En Hakkore, which is in Lehi, to this day.
20 Samson kuwa ya shugabanci Isra’ila shekara ashirin a zamanin Filistiyawa.
He judged Israel twenty years in the days of the Philistines.
