Ƙidaya 21
1 Sa’ad da sarkin Arad, mutumin Kan’ana, wanda yake zaune a Negeb, da ya ji cewa Isra’ila yana zuwa ta hanyar Atarim, sai ya fito, yă yaƙi Isra’ilawa, yă kuma kama waɗansunsu.
And the Canaanite, the king of Arad who dwelt in the South, heard that Israel had entered by the way of Atharim, —so he made war with Israel, and took some of them captive.
2 Sai Isra’ila suka yi alkawari wa Ubangiji suka ce, “In ka ba da waɗannan mutane a hannunmu, za mu hallaka dukan garuruwansu ƙaf.”
Then Israel vowed vow unto Yahweh, and said, —If thou wilt, surely deliver up, this people into my hand, then will I utterly destroy their cities.
3 Ubangiji kuwa ya saurari kukan Isra’ila, ya kuma ba da Kan’aniyawa a gare su. Suka hallaka su da biranensu ƙaf; saboda haka aka sa wa wurin suna Horma.
And Yahweh hearkened unto the voice of Israel and delivered up the Canaanite into his hand, so he utterly destroyed them, and their cities, and called the name of the place Hormah [that is, "Utter Destruction"].
4 Suka kama hanya daga Dutsen Hor ta hanya zuwa Jan Teku, don su kauce wa Edom. Amma mutane suka rasa haƙuri a hanya;
Then brake they up from Mount Hor, by way of the Red Sea, to go round the land of Edom, —and the soul of the people became impatient because of the way,
5 suka yi wa Allah da Musa gunaguni, suka ce, “Me ya sa kuka fitar da mu daga Masar, kuka kawo mu mu mutu a wannan hamada? Babu abinci! Babu ruwa! Mu dai mun gaji da wannan abinci marar amfani!”
So then the people spake against God and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt, to die in the desert? for there is neither bread nor water, and our soul, doth loathe this contemptible bread!
6 Sai Ubangiji ya aiko da macizai masu dafin a cikinsu, suka sassari mutane, Isra’ilawa masu yawa kuwa suka mutu.
And Yahweh sent among the people the poisonous serpents, and they bit the people, —and much people out of Israel died.
7 Mutanen suka zo wurin Musa, suka ce, “Mun yi zunubi, da muka yi wa Ubangiji da kai gunaguni. Ka yi addu’a don Ubangiji yă ɗauke mana macizan nan.” Saboda haka Musa ya yi addu’a domin mutane.
Then came the people of Israel unto Moses and said—We have sinned in that we spake against Yahweh and against thee, Pray thou unto Yahweh, that he may take from us the serpent. So Moses prayed for the people.
8 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka ƙera siffar maciji ka rataye shi a bisa doguwar sanda; kowa da maciji ya sare shi, idan ya dubi macijin nan da ka rataye, zai rayu.”
Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Make thee a like serpent, and put it upon standard, —and it shall come to pass, that, any one who is bitten, as soon as he seeth it, shall live.
9 Saboda haka Musa ya ƙera macijin tagulla, ya kuma rataye shi bisa doguwar sanda. Sa’an nan duk wanda maciji ya sare shi, ya kuma dubi macijin tagullar, zai warke.
So Moses made a serpent of bronze, and put it upon the standard, —and it came to pass—that if the serpent had bitten any man, as soon as he directed his look unto the serpent of bronze, he lived.
10 Isra’ilawa suka kama hanya, suka yi sansani a Obot.
And the sons of Israel brake up, —and encamped in Oboth.
11 Sai suka tashi daga Obot, suka yi sansani a Iye Abarim a hamadar da take fuskantar Mowab, wajen fitowar rana.
And they brake up from Oboth, —and encamped in Ije-Abarim, in the desert which is over against Moab, towards the rising of the sun.
12 Daga nan kuma suka ci gaba, suka yi sansani a Kwarin Zered.
From thence, brake they up, —and encamped in the ravine of Zered.
13 Suka tashi daga nan, suka sauka kusa da Arnon wanda yake a hamadar da ta miƙe zuwa iyakar Amoriyawa. Arnon shi ne iyakar Mowab, wanda yake tsakanin Mowab da Amoriyawa.
From thence, brake they up, and encamped on the other side of Arnon which is in the desert, that cometh forth out of the boundary of the Amorites, —for, Arnon, is the boundary of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.
14 Shi ya sa Littafin Yaƙoƙin Ubangiji ya ce, “Waheb ta cikin yankin Sufa, da kwaruruka na tuddan Arnon,
For this cause is it said, in the Book of the Wars of Yahweh, — …Waheb with a hurricane, And the ravines of Arnon;
15 da gangaren kwaruruka, wanda ya nausa zuwa garin Ar, ya kuma dangana da kan iyakar Mowab.”
And the bottom of the ravines, that extendeth toward the dwelling of Ar, —And adjoineth to the boundary of Moab,
16 Daga can, suka gangara zuwa Beyer, wato, rijiyar da Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Ka tattara mutane duka, zan kuwa ba su ruwa.”
And from thence, towards Beer, —the same, is the well whereof Yahweh said unto Moses, Gather together the people, that I may give them water.
17 Sai Isra’ilawa suka rera wannan waƙa, “Ki ɓuɓɓugo da ruwa, Ke rijiya! Rera waƙa game da ita,
Then, sang Israel this song, —Spring thou up, O well! Respond ye thereunto;
18 game da rijiyar da’ya’yan sarki suka haƙa, rijiyar da manyan mutane masu sandunan sarauta suka nuna da sandunansu.” Sa’an nan suka tashi daga hamadar, suka tafi Mattana,
A well!—princes digged it, Nobles of the people, delved it, With a sceptre, With their staves. And, from the desert, to Mattanah;
19 daga Mattana, suka tafi Nahaliyel, daga Nahaliyel, suka tafi Bamot,
and from Mattanah, to Nahaliel; and from Nahaliel, to Bamoth;
20 daga Bamot kuma suka tafi kwarin da yake cikin Mowab inda ƙwanƙolin Fisga yake fuskantar hamada.
and, from Bamoth of the valley, which is in the field-country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, —which overlooketh Jeshimon.
21 Isra’ila suka aiki manzanni wurin Sihon sarkin Amoriyawa su ce,
Then sent Israel messengers, unto Sihon king of the Amorites, saying:
22 “Ka bari mu ratsa ta ƙasarka. Ba za mu shiga wata gona ba, ba za mu kuma shiga gonar inabi, ko mu sha ruwa daga wata rijiya ba. Za mu bi ta babbar hanyar sarki, har mu fita ƙasarka.”
Let me pass through thy land we will not turn aside into field or into vineyard, nor will we drink the water of a well, —by the king’s road, will we go, until we get through thy boundary.
23 Amma Sihon bai bar Isra’ila su ratsa ta yankinsa ba. Sai ya tara dukan sojojinsa, suka fita zuwa cikin hamada, su yaƙi Isra’ila. Da ya kai Yahaz, sai ya yaƙi Isra’ila.
And Sihon suffered not Israel to pass through his boundary, but Sihon gathered together all his people, and came forth to meet Israel, towards the desert, and entered Jahaz, and fought with Israel.
24 Isra’ila fa suka kashe shi da takobi, suka ƙwace ƙasarsa, tun daga kogin Arnon har zuwa kogin Yabbok, zuwa kan iyakar Ammonawa kawai, gama sun yi wa iyakansu katanga.
And Israel smote him with the edge of the sword, —and took possession of his land, from Arnon unto Jabbok, unto the sons of Ammon, for strong, was the boundary of the sons of Ammon.
25 Isra’ila suka ci dukan biranen Amoriyawa, suka kuma zauna a cikinsu, haɗe da babban birnin Heshbon da dukan ƙauyukanta.
So Israel took all these cities, —and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon and in all her villages;
26 Sihon sarkin Amoriyawa ya yi mulkin Heshbon, bayan ya ci sarkin Mowab na dā da yaƙi, ya kuma ƙwace dukan ƙasarsa har zuwa arewancin kogin Arnon.
for, as for Heshbon, the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, it was, he, having fought with the former king of Moab, and taken all his land out of his hand, unto Arnon.
27 Shi ya sa Amoriyawa suka rubuta wannan waƙa game da Heshbon suka ce, “Ku zo mu sāke gina Heshbon, birnin Sihon.
For this cause, say the poets—Enter ye Heshbon, —Built and prepared be the city of Sihon;
28 “Mayaƙansa sun fito kamar harshen wuta suka ƙone birnin Ar na Mowab suna hallaka’yan ƙasar tuddan Arnon.
For, a fire, hath come forth out of Heshbon, A flame, out of the stronghold of Sihon; It hath consumed Ar of Moab, The lords of the high places of Arnon.
29 Kaitonki, Mowab! Gunkinki Kemosh ya yashe mutanenki; aka kuma kama su, aka kai su bauta wajen Sihon sarkin Amoriyawa.
Woe to thee, Moab, Thou art lost, O people of Chemosh, —He hath given up his sons as fugitives, And his daughters into captivity, Unto the king of the Amorites, Sihon.
30 “Amma mun tumɓuke su, mun hallaka garuruwan Heshbon har zuwa Dibon. Mun ragargaza su har zuwa Nofa wanda ya miƙe zuwa Medeba.”
Then we shot them—Heshbon is destroyed, as far as Dibon, —Then laid we waste as far as Nophah, A fire reacheth unto Medeba.
31 Ta haka Isra’ila suka zauna a ƙasar Amoriyawa.
So then Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.
32 Sai Musa ya aika’yan leƙen asiri zuwa Yazer. Daga baya, sai Isra’ilawa suka ci ƙauyukan da suke kewaye, suka kuma kori Amoriyawa da suke zaune a can.
And Moses sent to spy out Jazer, and they captured the villages thereof, —and dispossessed the Amorites that were there.
33 Sai suka juya suka haura kan hanya ta zuwa Bashan, inda Og yake sarauta, ya kuwa fito tare da dukan sojojinsa suka yi yaƙi da Isra’ila a Edireyi.
Then turned they, and went up by the way of Bashan, —and Og, king of Bashan, came forth to meet them—he and all his people, to give battle at Edrei.
34 Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Kada ka ji tsoronsa, gama na ba da shi a gare ka, da dukan sojojinsa da kuma ƙasarsa. Ka yi da shi yadda ka yi da Sihon sarkin Amoriyawa, wanda ya yi mulki a Heshbon.”
Then said Yahweh unto Moses—Do not fear him, for into thy hand, have I delivered him and all his people, and his land, —Therefore shalt thou do unto him, as thou didst unto Sihon king of the Amorites, who was dwelling in Heshbon.
35 Ta haka suka kashe shi, tare da’ya’yansa maza da kuma dukan sojojinsa, ba wanda ya ragu. Suka kuma mamaye ƙasarsa.
So then they smote him and his sons and all his people, until there was not left him a remnant, —and took possession of his land.
