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 to 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 Adonibezek 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 Adonibezek fled; and they pursued 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 Adonibezek said, seventy kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered their food under my table: as I have done, so God hath repaid 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 on 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 Kirjatharba: ) 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 there he went against the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjathsepher:
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 Kirjathsepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter for a 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 for a 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 got off her donkey; and Caleb said to 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 to 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 lower 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 its land, and Askelon with its land, and Ekron with its land.
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 drove 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 to Caleb, as Moses said: and he drove out from there the three sons of Anak.
21 Ko da yake mutanen Benyamin sun kāsa su kori Yebusiyawa, waɗanda suke zaune a Urushalima; har yă zuwa yau, Yebusiyawa suna zaune a can tare da mutanen Benyamin.
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 to 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 Bethel: 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 spy out Bethel. (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 coming out of the city, and they said to him, Show us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we will show thee mercy.
25 Saboda haka ya nuna musu, suka kuwa hallaka birnin, suka bar mutumin da dukan iyalinsa da rai.
And when he showed 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 of it Luz: which is its name to 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 Bethshean and its towns, nor Taanach and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its 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 subjected the Canaanites to forced labour, and did not utterly drive them out.

Neither did Zebulun drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites dwelt among them, and became forced labourers.
31 Haka Asher ma bai kori waɗanda suke zama a Akko ko Sidon ko Ahlab ko Akzib ko Helba ko Afik ko kuma Rehob ba,
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:
32 kuma saboda wannan ne mutanen Asher suke zaune cikin mazaunan ƙasar Kan’aniyawa.
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 Bethshemesh, nor the inhabitants of Bethanath; but he dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: nevertheless the inhabitants of Bethshemesh and of Bethanath became forced labourers to them.
34 Amoriyawa suka matsa wa mutanen Dan a ƙasar tudu, ba su yarda musu su gangaro zuwa filaye ba.
And the Amorites forced the children of Dan to the mountain: for they would not allow them to come down to the valley:
35 Su Amoriyawa kuma suka dāge su zauna a Dutsen-Heres, Aiyalon, da Sha’albim. Amma yayinda mutanen Yusuf suka ƙara ƙarfi, sai suka su yin musu aikin gandu.
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 forced labourers.
36 Iyakar Amoriyawa kuwa daga Mashigin Kunama zuwa Sela da kuma zuwa gaba.
And the border of the Amorites was from the ascent to Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.
