1 Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya haura daga Gilgal zuwa Bokim ya ce, “Na hauro da ku daga Masar zuwa ƙasar da na rantse zan ba wa kakanninku. Na ce, ‘Ba zan taɓa tā da yarjejjeniyata da ku ba,
And an angel of the Lord went up from Galgal to the [place of] weeping, and to Baethel, and to the house of Israel, and said to them, Thus says the Lord, I brought you up out of Egypt, and I brought you into the land which I sware to your fathers; and I said, I will never break my covenant that I have made with you.
2 ku kuma kada ku shiga wata yarjejjeniya da mazaunan ƙasan nan, sai dai za ku rurrushe bagadansu.’ Duk da haka ba ku yi biyayya mini ba. Me ya sa kuka yi haka?
And you shall make no covenant with them that dwell in this land, neither shall you worship their gods; but you shall destroy their graven images, you shall pull down their altars: but you listened not to my voice, for you did these things.
3 Saboda haka ina gaya muku cewa ba zan kore su a gabanku ba; za su zama muku ƙaya, gumakansu kuma za su zama muku tarko.”
And I said, I will not drive them out from before you, but they shall be for a distress to you, and their gods shall be to you for an offense.
4 Da mala’ikan Ubangiji ya faɗa wa dukan Isra’ilawa waɗannan abubuwa, sai mutane suka yi kuka mai zafi,
And it came to pass when the angel of the Lord spoke these words to all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
5 sai suka sa wa wannan wuri suna, Bokim. A nan suka miƙa hadaya a gaban Ubangiji.
And they named the name of that place Weepings; and they sacrificed there to the Lord.
6 Bayan Yoshuwa ya sallami Isra’ilawa, sai suka tafi don su mallaki ƙasar, kowa da nasa gādon.
And Joshua dismissed the people, and they went every man to his inheritance, to inherit the land.
7 Mutane suka bauta wa Ubangiji duk tsawon kwanakin Yoshuwa da na dattawan da suka rayu bayansa waɗanda suka ga manyan abubuwan da Ubangiji ya yi wa Isra’ila.
And the people served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that lived many days with Joshua, as many as knew all the great work of the Lord, what things he had wrought in Israel.
8 Yoshuwa ɗan Nun, bawan Ubangiji, ya mutu yana da shekara ɗari da goma.
And Joshua the son of Naue, the servant of the Lord, died, a hundred and ten years old.
9 Aka binne shi a ƙasar gādonsa, a Timnat Heres a ƙasar tudu ta Efraim, arewa da Dutsen Ga’ash.
And they buried him in the border of his inheritance, in Thamnathares, in mount Ephraim, on the north of the mountain of Gaas.
10 Bayan tsaran nan duka suka rasu, sai wata tsara ta taso wadda ba tă san Ubangiji ko abin da ya yi wa Isra’ila ba.
And all that generation were laid to their fathers: and another generation rose up after them, who knew not the Lord, nor yet the work which he wrought in Israel.
11 Sai Isra’ilawa suka yi mugaye abubuwa a gaban Ubangiji suka kuma bauta Ba’al.
And the children of Israel wrought evil before the Lord, and served Baalim.
12 Suka yashe Ubangiji Allah na kakanninsu, wanda ya fitar da su daga Masar. Suka bi suka kuma bauta alloli dabam-dabam na mutanen da suke kewaye da su. Suka tsokani Ubangiji ya yi fushi
And they forsook the Lord God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and walked after other gods, of the gods of the nations round about them; and they worshipped them.
13 domin sun bar shi suka bauta wa Ba’al da Ashtarot.
And they provoked the Lord, and forsook him, and served Baal and the Astartes.
14 Cikin fushinsa a kan Isra’ila Ubangiji ya ba da su ga hannun waɗanda suka kawo musu hari suka washe su. Ya sayar da su ga abokan gābansu da suke kewaye da su, waɗanda ba za su iya yin tsayayya da su ba.
And the Lord was very angry with Israel; and he gave them into the hands of the spoilers, and they spoiled them; and he sold them into the hands of their enemies round about, and they could not any longer resist their enemies,
15 Duk sa’ad da Isra’ila suka fita yaƙi, Ubangiji yakan yi gāba da su don a ci su a yaƙi, kamar dai yadda ya rantse musu. Suka kuwa shiga wahala ƙwarai.
among whoever they went; and the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord spoke, and as the Lord sware to them; and he greatly afflicted them.
16 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya naɗa mahukunta, waɗanda suka cece su daga hannun waɗannan musu hari.
And the Lord raised up judges, and the Lord save them out of the hands of them that spoiled them: and yet they listened not to the judges,
17 Duk da haka ba su saurari mahukuntansu ba amma sai suka shiga ha’inci da waɗansu alloli suka kuma bauta musu. Ba kamar kakanninsu ba, nan da nan suka kauce daga hanyar da kakanninsu suka bi, hanyar biyayya ga umarnan Ubangiji.
for they went a whoring after other gods, and worshipped them; and they turned quickly out of the way in which their fathers walked to listen to the words of the Lord; they did not so.
18 Duk sa’ad da Ubangiji ya naɗa musu mahukunci, yakan kasance tare da mahukuncin, yă kuma cece su daga hannun abokan gāba, muddin mahukuncin yana a raye; gama Ubangiji yakan ji tausayinsu yayinda suke gunaguni ƙarƙashin waɗanda suka danne su suke kuma gasa musu azaba.
And because the Lord raised them up judges, so the Lord was with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for the Lord was moved at their groaning by reason of them that besieged them and afflicted them.
19 Amma sa’ad da mahukuncin ya mutu, mutanen suka koma hanyar da ta fi ta kakanninsu muni, sukan bi waɗansu alloli suna bauta musu. Suka ƙi barin mugun ayyukansu da taurin zuciyarsu.
And it came to pass when the judge died, that they went back, and again corrupted [themselves] worse than their fathers to go after other gods to serve them an to worship them: they abandoned not their devices nor their stubborn ways.
20 Saboda haka sai Ubangiji ya fusata da Isra’ila ya ce, “Domin wannan al’umma ta tā da yarjejjeniyar da na yi da kakanninsu ba su kuwa saurare ni ba,
And the Lord was very angry with Israel, and said, Forasmuch as this nation has forsaken my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and has not listened to my voice,
21 ba zan ƙara kori wata al’ummar da Yoshuwa ya bari sa’ad da ya rasu ba.
therefore I will not any more cast out a man of the nations before their face, which Joshua the son of Naue left in the land. And [the Lord] left [them],
22 Zan yi amfani da su in gwada Isra’ila in ga ko za su bi hanyar Ubangiji su kuma yi tafiya a cikinta kamar yadda kakanninsu suka yi.”
to prove Israel with them, whether they would keep the way of the Lord, to walk in it, as their fathers kept it, or no.
23 Ubangiji ya bar waɗannan al’ummai su kasance; bai kore su nan take ta wurin ba da su a hannun Yoshuwa ba.
So the Lord will leave these nations, so as not to cast them out suddenly; and he delivered them not into the hand of Joshua.
