Mahukunta 6

1 Isra’ilawa suka sāke yin mugayen ayyuka a gaban Ubangiji, sai ya ba da su ga Midiyawa shekara bakwai.

Israelfoɔ no yɛɛ deɛ ɛyɛ Awurade ani so bɔne bio. Ɛno enti, Awurade de wɔn hyɛɛ Midianfoɔ nsa mfeɛ nson.

2 Da Midiyawa suka matsa musu sosai, sai Isra’ilawa suka yi wa kansu mafakai a rammukan duwatsu, kogona da kuma mafaka.

Esiane sɛ na Midianfoɔ no yɛ atirimuɔdenfoɔ enti, Israelfoɔ no dwane kɔɔ mmepɔ so kɔpɛɛ ahintaeɛ wɔ abodan ne atu mu.

3 Duk lokacin da Isra’ilawa suka yi shuka sai Midiyawa da Amalekawa da waɗansu mutane daga gabashi sukan kai musu hari.

Ɛberɛ biara a Israelfoɔ duaa wɔn nnɔbaeɛ no, Midianfoɔ, Amalekfoɔ ne nnipa a wɔte apueeɛ fam no kɔto hyɛ wɔn so.

4 Sukan yi sansani a ƙasar sun lalatar da hatsi har zuwa Gaza kuma ba sa barin wani abu mai rai wa Isra’ila, ko tumaki ko shanu ko jakuna.

Wɔbɛyɛ atenaeɛ wɔ wɔn asase no so sɛe mfudeɛ no firi Gasa a wɔnnya Israelfoɔ aduane biribiara. Wɔfa nnwan, anantwie ne mfunumu.

5 Sukan zo da dabbobinsu da tentinsu kamar tarin fāri. Yana da wuya a ƙidaya yawan mutanen da kuma raƙumansu; sukan mamaye ƙasar don su lalatar da ita.

Saa atamfoɔ dɔm yi de wɔn nyɛmmoa ne wɔn ntomadan foro ba te sɛ ntutummɛ. Wɔtete nyoma a wɔntumi nkane wɔn dodoɔ so na wɔba. Na wɔtena asase no so kɔsi ɛso nneɛma nyinaa bɛsa.

6 Midiyawa suka talauce Isra’ilawa ƙwarai, har ya sa suka yi kuka ga Ubangiji don taimako.

Enti Midianfoɔ no maa ɛkɔm baa Israel. Afei Israelfoɔ no su frɛɛ Awurade pɛɛ mmoa.

7 Sa’ad da Isra’ilawa suka yi kuka ga Ubangiji saboda Midiyawa,

Ɛberɛ a Midianfoɔ enti, Israelfoɔ su frɛɛ Awurade no,

8 sai ya aika musu da annabi, wanda ya ce, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce na fitar da ku daga Masar, daga ƙasar bauta.

Awurade somaa odiyifoɔ kɔɔ wɔn nkyɛn. Ɔkaa sɛ, “Asɛm a Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, ka nie: Meyii mo firii Misraim nkoasom mu

9 Na ƙwace ku daga ikon Masarawa da kuma daga dukan hannuwan masu danniya. Na kore su a gabanku na kuma ba ku ƙasarsu.

Meyii mo firii Misraim tumi ne wɔn a wɔhyɛ mo so nyinaa ase. Mepamoo mo atamfoɔ de wɔn asase maa mo.

10 Na ce muku, ‘Ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku; kada ku bauta allolin Amoriyawa, waɗanda kuke zama a ƙasarsu.’ Amma ba ku saurare ni ba.”

Meka kyerɛɛ mo sɛ, ‘Mene Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn. Monnsom Amorifoɔ a mote wɔn asase so no anyame.’ Nanso moantie me.”

11 Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya zo ya zauna a ƙarƙashin itacen oak a Ofra na Yowash mutumin Abiyezer, inda ɗansa Gideyon yake sussukar alkama a wurin matsin inabi don yă ɓoye daga Midiyawa.

Na Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ bɛtenaa odupɔn a ɛsi Ofra a ɛyɛ Yoas a ɔfiri Abieser abusua mu dea no ase. Na Yoas babarima Gideon reporo ayuo wɔ nsakyiamena ase sɛ ɔde resie Midianfoɔ no.

12 Sa’ad da mala’ikan Ubangiji ya bayyana wa Gideyon, sai ya ce masa, “Ubangiji yana tare da kai, jarumi.”

Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ Gideon, kaa sɛ, “Dɔmmarima, Awurade ka wo ho.”

13 Gideyon ya ce, “Ranka yă daɗe, in Ubangiji yana tare da mu, me ya sa waɗannan abubuwa suka faru da mu? Ina dukan abubuwan al’ajabinsa waɗanda kakanninmu suka gaya mana game su sa’ad da suka ce, ‘Ashe, ba Ubangiji ne ya fitar da mu daga Masar ba?’ Amma yanzu Ubangiji ya rabu da mu ya kuma sa mu hannun Midiyawa.”

Gideon buaa sɛ, “Owura, sɛ Awurade ka yɛn ho a, adɛn enti na saa nsɛm yi nyinaa aba yɛn so? Na anwanwadeɛ a yɛn agyanom kaa ho asɛm kyerɛɛ yɛn no nso wɔ he? Wɔanka sɛ, ‘Awurade yii yɛn firii Misraim anaa?’ Nanso, seesei deɛ, Awurade agyaa yɛn de yɛn ahyɛ Midianfoɔ nsam.”

14 Sai Ubangiji ya juya wajensa ya ce, “Ka je da ƙarfin da kake da shi ka ceci Isra’ila daga hannun Midiyawa. Ba Ni ne nake aikan ka ba?”

Na Awurade danee ne ho ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Fa ahoɔden a wowɔ no kɔ na kɔgye Israelfoɔ firi Midianfoɔ no nsam. Me na meresoma wo.”

15 Gideyon ya ce, “Amma Ubangiji, yaya zan iya ceci Isra’ila? Kabilata ce marar ƙarfi duka a Manasse, kuma ni ne ƙarami a iyalina.”

Gideon buaa sɛ, “Na Awurade, mɛyɛ dɛn magye Israelfoɔ? Mʼabusua na ɛyɛ mmerɛ koraa wɔ Manase abusuakuo mu na me na mesua koraa wɔ me fiefoɔ nyinaa mu.”

16 Ubangiji ya ce, “Zan kasance tare da kai, za ka kuwa fatattake dukan Midiyawa gaba ɗaya.”

Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mɛka wo ho. Wobɛsɛe Midianfoɔ no sɛdeɛ woresɛe onipa fua.”

17 Gideyon ya ce, “In lalle na sami tagomashi a gabanka, to, ka ba ni wata alamar da ta nuna lalle kai kake magana da ni.

Gideon buaa sɛ, “Sɛ wobɛboa me ampa ara deɛ a, yɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ bi ma menhunu sɛ, nokorɛm, ɛyɛ wo Awurade na worekasa kyerɛ me yi.

18 Ina roƙonka ka dakata har in komo in kawo maka hadayata in ajiye a gabanka.” Sai Ubangiji ya ce, “Zan jira har ka dawo.”

Nkɔ, kɔsi sɛ mɛsane mʼakyi aba de mʼafɔrebɔdeɛ abrɛ wo.” Awurade buaa sɛ, “Mɛtena ha atwɛn kɔsi sɛ wobɛba.”

19 Sai Gideyon ya shiga ciki, ya gyara’yar akuya ya dafa, da garin efa ya yi burodi marar yisti. Da ya sa naman a kwando, romon kuma a tukunya, sai ya fito da su waje ya miƙa masa su a ƙarƙashin itacen oak.

Gideon yɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ efie. Ɔkɔsiesie abirekyie ba, too burodo asikyiresiam lita aduonu mmienu a mmɔreka nni mu. Afei, ɔsoaa ɛnam no wɔ kɛntɛn mu a nkwan no nso wɔ ɛsɛn bi mu de baeɛ. Ɔde brɛɛ ɔbɔfoɔ no wɔ odupɔn no ase.

20 Mala’ikan Allah ya ce masa, “Ka ɗauko naman da burodi marar yisti ka sa su a kan wannan dutse, ka zuba romon a kai.” Gideyon kuwa ya yi haka.

Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Fa ɛnam no ne burodo a ɛnkaeɛ no gu ɔbotan yi so na hwie nkwan no gu so.” Na Gideon yɛɛ deɛ ɔbɔfoɔ no kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no.

21 Da kan sandan da yake a hannunsa, mala’ikan Ubangiji ya taɓa naman da burodi marar yistin. Sai wuta ta fito daga dutsen ta cinye naman da burodin. Mala’ikan kuwa ya ɓace.

Afei, Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ no de poma a ɛkura no no kaa ɛnam ne burodo no, na ogya pue firii ɔbotan no mu hyee deɛ ɔde baeɛ no nyinaa. Na ɔbɔfoɔ no yeraeɛ.

22 Sa’ad da Gideyon ya gane mala’ikan Ubangiji ne, sai ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka! Na ga mala’ikan Ubangiji ido da ido.”

Ɛberɛ a Gideon hunuu sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ no, ɔteaam sɛ, “Asafo Awurade, mahunu Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ animu ne animu.”

23 Amma Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Salama! Kada ka ji tsoro, ba za ka mutu ba.”

Awurade buaa sɛ, “Nsuro na worenwu.”

24 Saboda haka Gideyon ya gina wa Ubangiji bagade a can, ya kuma kira shi, Ubangiji Salama ne. Har wa yau bagaden yana a Ofra ta mutanen Abiyezer.

Na Gideon sii afɔrebukyia wɔ hɔ maa Awurade na ɔtoo no edin “Awurade Yɛ Asomdwoeɛ.” Afɔrebukyia no da so wɔ Ofra a ɛyɛ Abieserfoɔ abusua asase so de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.

25 A wannan dare Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Ka ɗauki bijimi na biyu daga garken mahaifinka, wannan mai shekara bakwai. Ka rushe bagaden mahaifinka na Ba’al ka sare ginshiƙin Ashera kusa da ita.

Anadwo no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Gideon sɛ, “Kyere nantwinini ɔdi mu, ɔtɔ so mmienu na wadi mfeɛ nson firi wʼagya anantwie mu. Dwiri wʼagya afɔrebukyia a ɔsi maa Baal no, na twa Asera dua a ɛsi nkyɛn no.

26 Sa’an nan ka gina bagade irin da ya dace wa Ubangiji Allahnka a kan wannan tudu. Ka yi amfani da itacen katakon ginshiƙin Ashera da ka sare, ka miƙa bijiman nan biyu hadaya ta ƙonawa.”

Afei, si afɔrebukyia wɔ bepɔ yi so ma Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn. Hyehyɛ afɔrebukyia aboɔ no yie. Fa nantwinini bɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ afɔrebukyia no so. Fa Asera dua a wotwaeɛ no yensin yɛ egya.”

27 Saboda haka Gideyon ya ɗebi bayinsa bakwai ya yi yadda Ubangiji ya ce masa. Amma saboda yana tsoron iyalinsa da mutanen gari, ya yi haka da dare a maimako da rana.

Enti, Gideon faa nʼasomfoɔ edu de wɔn yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ noɔ no. Nanso, ɔyɛɛ no anadwo, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔsuro nʼagya fiefoɔ ne kuro mma no. Na ɔnim deɛ ɛbɛsie, sɛ wɔhunu onipa a ɔyɛɛ saa adeɛ no a.

28 Da safe sa’ad da mutanen garin suka tashi, sai suka tarar an rushe bagaden Ba’al, tare da ginshiƙin Ashera da yake kusa da shi, duk an sare, bijimi na biyu kuma aka miƙa hadaya a kan sabon bagaden!

Adeɛ kyee anɔpahema a kuro no mu nnipa hyɛɛ aseɛ nyanenyaneeɛ no, obi hunuu sɛ wɔadwiri Baal afɔrebukyia no agu, na Asera dua a ɛsi ho no nso, wɔatwa atwene na wɔasi afɔrebukyia foforɔ asi ananmu. Na wɔhunuu afɔrebɔdeɛ bi nkaeɛ wɔ so.

29 Sai suka tambayi junansu, “Wa ya yi wannan?” Sa’ad da suka bincika a hankali, sai aka faɗa musu, “Gideyon ɗan Yowash ne ya yi haka.”

Ɔmanfoɔ no bisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛ, “Hwan na ɔyɛɛ yei?” Wɔbisabisa, too wɔn bo ase feefee mu no, wɔhunuu sɛ Yoas babarima Gideon na ɔyɛɛ saa.

30 Mutanen garin suka ce wa Yowash, “Ka kawo mana ɗanka. Dole yă mutu, domin ya rushe bagaden Ba’al, ya sare ginshiƙin Asheran da yake tsaye kusa da shi.”

Ɔmanfoɔ no teaam guu Yoas so sɛ, “Fa wo babarima no bra. Sɛe a ɔsɛee Baal afɔrebukyia ne twa a ɔtwaa Asera dua no enti, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔwuo.”

31 Amma Yowash ya ce wa taron da suka tayar masa, “Za ku yi hamayya domin Ba’al ne? Kuna ƙoƙari ku cece shi ne? Duk wanda ya yi faɗa saboda shi za a kashe shi kafin safe. In lalle Ba’al allah ne, zai kāre kansa sa’ad da wani ya rushe bagadensa.”

Nanso, Yoas teaam guu nnipakuo no so sɛ, “Adɛn enti na mogye Baal ti? Mobɛtumi aka nʼasɛm ama no anaa? Obiara a ɔbɛgye ne ti no, wɔbɛkum no ansa na adeɛ akye. Sɛ Baal yɛ onyame bi ampa ara a ɔno ara nni mma ne ho na ɔnkum deɛ ɔdwirii nʼafɔrebukyia no!”

32 Saboda haka a ranar suka kira Gideyon, “Yerub-Ba’al,” suna cewa, “Bari Ba’al ya yi hamayya da shi,” domin ya rushe bagaden Ba’al.

Ɛfiri saa ɛberɛ no rekɔ no, wɔfrɛɛ Gideon Yerubaal a asekyerɛ ne “Baal nni mma ne ne ho,” ɛfiri sɛ, ɔno ara na ɔdwirii Baal afɔrebukyia no guiɛ.

33 To, dukan Midiyawa, Amalekawa da sauran mutanen gabashi suka haɗa ƙarfi suka ƙetare Urdun suka kafa sansani a Kwarin Yezireyel.

Afei, Midianfoɔ nyinaa, Amalekfoɔ nyinaa ne nnipa a wɔfifiri apueeɛ fam no kaa wɔn ho bɔɔ mu tia Israel. Wɔtwaa Yordan, kɔbɔɔ atenaeɛ wɔ Yesreel bɔnhwa mu.

34 Sa’an nan Ruhun Ubangiji ya sauko wa Gideyon, ya kuma busa ƙaho, ya kira mutanen Abiyezer su bi shi.

Awurade honhom baa Gideon so na ɔbɔɔ totorobɛnto de frɛɛ dɔm. Mmarima a wɔfiri Abieser abusua mu no baa ne nkyɛn.

35 Ya aika manzanni ko’ina a Manasse, yana kiransu su kintsa, haka ma Asher, Zebulun da Naftali, ta haka su ma suka haura su sadu da su.

Ɔsomaa abɔfoɔ kɔɔ Manase, Aser, Sebulon ne Naftali nyinaa mu kɔfrɛɛ wɔn akodɔm, na wɔn nyinaa penee so.

36 Gideyon ya cewa Allah, “In za ka ceci Isra’ila ta hannuna yadda ka yi alkawari,

Gideon ka kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Sɛ wonam me nsa so bɛgye Israel sɛdeɛ woahyɛ bɔ no a,

37 to, zan shimfiɗa ulu a masussuka, inda safe akwai raɓa a kan ulun kaɗai, ƙasa kuwa a bushe, to, zan san cewa za ka ceci Isra’ila ta hannuna, yadda ka ce.”

fa saa ɛkwan yi so kyerɛ me, mede odwannwi bɛkata ayuporobea hɔ anadwo yi. Sɛ obosuo fɔ odwannwi no, na sɛ ɛhɔ amfɔ a, na mahunu sɛ ampa ara, wonam me nsa so bɛgye Israel sɛdeɛ woahyɛ ho bɔ no.”

38 Abin da faru ke nan. Gideyon ya tashi da sassafe kashegari, ya matse ulun ya kakkaɓe raɓar, ruwan ya cika ƙwarya.

Na saa na ɛbaeɛ. Gideon sɔree adekyeeɛ kyii odwannwi no mu nyaa nsuo adeɛ ma.

39 Sa’an nan Gideyon ya ce wa Allah, “Kada ka yi fushi da ni. Bari in ƙara yin wani gwaji kuma da ulun. A wannan lokaci ka sa ulun yă bushe, ƙasar kuma ta rufu da raɓa.”

Afei, Gideon ka kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Mma wo bo mfu me. Ma memmisa adeɛ baako. Ma memfa odwannwi no nsɔ biribi nhwɛ. Saa ɛberɛ yi deɛ, ma odwannwi no nyɛ wesee na baabi a ɛda hɔ no nyinaa mfɔ.”

40 A wannan dare Allah ya yi haka. Ulun ne kaɗai yake a bushe, amma dukan ƙasar ta jiƙe da raɓa.

Anadwo no, Onyankopɔn yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Gideon bisaeɛ no. Anɔpa no odwannwi yɛɛ wesee a na obosuo afɔ fam hɔ nyinaa.
