Wata rana Yonatan ɗan Shawulu ya ce wa saurayin da yake ɗaukar masa makamai, “Zo mu tafi wajen sansanin Filistiyawa a wancan hayi.” Amma bai gaya wa mahaifinsa ba.
2 Sauro aigara nechokumucheto kweGibhea pasi pomuti womutamba muMigironi. Aiva navarume vanokarosvika mazana matanhatu,
Shawulu kuwa na zaune a gindin itacen rumman a bayan garin Gibeya a Migron. Tare da shi akwai mutum wajen ɗari shida.

A cikinsu akwai Ahiya sanye da efod. Shi yaron Ikabod ɗan’uwan Ahitub ne, ɗan Finehas, ɗan Eli, firist na Ubangiji a Shilo. Ba wanda ya san cewa Yonatan ya tafi wani wuri.
4 Kumativi ose omupata waida kuyambukwa naJonatani kuti asvike pamusasa wavaFiristia, kwaiva namawere; mamwe ainzi Bhozezi, mamwe achinzi Sene.
A kowane gefe na mashigin da Yonatan ya so yă bi zuwa wurin Filistiyawa, akwai hawa mai tsawo, ana kira ɗaya Bozez, ɗayan kuma ana kira Senet.
5 Mamwe mawere aiva nechokumusoro kwakadziva kuMikimashi, mamwe ari zasi kwakadziva kuGebha.
Hawan da yake arewa yana fuskantar Mikmash, wanda yake kudu kuma yana fuskantar Geba.
6 Jonatani akati kujaya raitakura zvombo zvake zvokurwa, “Uya tiyambuke tiende kumusasa wavasina kudzingiswa avo. Zvichida Jehovha achatirwira. Hapana chinodzivisa Jehovha kuti aponese, navakawanda kana navashoma.”
Yonatan ya ce wa saurayin mai ɗaukan makamai, “Zo mu haye zuwa mashigin mutane marasa kaciyan nan, wataƙila Ubangiji zai yi aiki a madadinmu. Ba abin da zai iya hana Ubangiji yin aikin ceto ta wurin mutane masu yawa, ko ta wurin mutane kaɗan.”
7 Mutakuri wezvombo akati, “Itai zvose zvamafunga. Endai mberi; ndinemi pamweya napamwoyo.”
Mai ɗaukan makaman ya ce, “Ka yi duk abin da yake zuciyarka. Ci gaba, ina tare da kai gaba da baya.”
8 Jonatani akati, “Uya tiyambuke zvino tinange kuvarume ava uye tigorega vatione.
Yonatan ya ce, “To, zo mu haye zuwa wajen mutanen, mu sa su gan mu.
9 Kana vakati kwatiri, ‘Mirai ipapo kusvikira tauya kwamuri,’ ticharamba tiri patiri ipapo uye hatizokwiri kwavari.
In suka ce mana, ‘Ku tsaya nan har mu zo wurinku,’ za mu dakata inda muke, ba za mu haura wajensu ba.
10 Asi kana vakati, ‘Uyai kuno kwatiri,’ tichakwidza, nokuti ndicho chichava chiratidzo chedu chokuti Jehovha avaisa mumaoko edu.”
Amma in suka ce mana, ‘Ku haura wurinmu,’ to, sai mu haura, wannan zai zama mana alama cewa Ubangiji ya bashe su a hannunmu.”
11 Saka vose vari vaviri vakazviratidza kuboka ravarwi ravaFiristia. VaFiristia vakati, “Tarirai! VaHebheru vari kukambaira vachibuda mumakomba avanga vakavanda.”
Sai suka nuna kansu a sansanin Filistiyawa. Sai Filistiyawa suka ce, “Ku duba ga Ibraniyawa suna fitowa daga cikin ramummuka inda suka ɓuya.”
12 Varume veboka ravarwi vakadanidzira kuna Jonatani nomubati wake nenhumbi dzokurwa vakati, “Kwirai kuno kwatiri tigokudzidzisai chidzidzo.” Saka Jonatani akati kumubati wake wenhumbi dzokurwa nadzo, “Kwira unditevere; Jehovha avaisa mumaoko avaIsraeri.”
Mutanen da suke sansanin suka kira Yonatan da mai ɗaukan makamansa da babbar murya suka ce, “Ku hauro wajenmu, mu kuwa za mu koya muku hankali.” Sai Yonatan ya ce wa mai ɗaukan makamansa, “Biyo ni, gama Ubangiji ya bashe su a hannun Isra’ila.”
13 Jonatani akakwira achikambaira namaoko namakumbo ake, mubati wenhumbi dzake dzokurwa ari mumashure make. VaFiristia vakati rakata rakata kuwa pamberi paJonatani, uye mubati wenhumbi dzake dzokurwa akatevera achiuraya mumashure make.
Sai Yonatan ya hau dutsen da rarrafe, mai ɗaukan makamansa kuwa yana biye. Yonatan ya yi ta fyaɗa Filistiyawa da ƙasa, mai ɗaukan makamansa kuma ya yi ta karkashe su.
14 Pakurwisa kwokutanga, Jonatani nomubati wake wenhumbi dzokurwa nadzo vakauraya varume vanenge makumi maviri panzvimbo inenge hafu yeeka.
A wannan karo na farko Yonatan da mai ɗaukan makamansa suka kashe mutum wajen ashirin a wani fili mai fāɗi rabin kadada.
15 Ipapo kutya kwakabata varwi vose vakanga vari mumusasa nomuminda, navose vakanga vari mumapoka avarwi navapambi, uye pasi pakadengenyeka. Kwakanga kuri kuvhundutswa kwakanga kwatumwa naMwari.
Sai tsoro ya kama dukan sojojin Filistiyawa, waɗanda suke cikin sansanin da waɗanda suke fili, har da waɗanda suke waje, da kuma waɗanda suke kai hari, ƙasa ta girgiza. Allah ne ya kawo wannan rikicewa.
16 Nharirire dzaSauro paGibhea muBhenjamini dzakaona varwi vachinyungudika kumativi ose.
Masu gadin Shawulu a Gebiya da take a Benyamin suka duba sai ga rundunar Filistiyawa a warwatsewa ko’ina.
17 Ipapo Sauro akati kuvarume vakanga vanaye, “Verengai varwi muone kuti ndivanaani vasipo pakati pedu.” Vakati vadaro vakaona kuti Jonatani nomubati wake wenhumbi dzokurwa vakanga vasipo.
Sai Shawulu ya ce wa mutanen da suke tare da shi, “Ku ƙidaya mayaƙa ku ga wane ne ba ya nan.” Da suka ƙirga sai suka tarar Yonatan da mai ɗaukan makamansa ba sa nan.
18 Sauro akati kuna Ahiya, “Uya neareka yaMwari.” (Panguva iyoyo vaIsraeri ndivo vakanga vanayo.)
Shawulu ya ce wa Ahiya, “Kawo akwatin alkawarin Allah.” (A lokacin akwatin alkawarin yana tare da Isra’ilawa.)
19 Sauro achiri kutaura nomuprista, mhirizhonga yakanyanyisa mumusasa wavaFiristia. Saka Sauro akati kumuprista, “Dzosa ruoko rwako.”
Yayinda Shawulu yake magana da firist kuwa, harguwa ya yi ta ƙaruwa a sansanin Filistiyawa. Sai Shawulu ya ce wa firist, “Janye hannunka.”
20 Ipapo Sauro navanhu vake vose vakaungana vakaenda kundorwa. Vakawana vaFiristia vari mumhirizhonga huru, vachibayana mumwe nomumwe neminondo yavo.
Sa’an nan Shawulu da dukan mutanensa suka taru suka tafi yaƙi. Suka tarar Filistiyawa sun ruɗe suna yaƙi da juna da takubansu.
21 VaHebheru vaya vakanga vari kuvaFiristia kare uye vakanga vaenda navo kumusasa wavo vakayambuka vakaenda kuvaIsraeri vakanga vana Sauro naJonatani.
Ibraniyawan da suke tare da Filistiyawa a dā, waɗanda suka bi Filistiyawan zuwa sansanin yaƙinsu, suka juya, suka goyi bayan Shawulu da Yonatan sa’ad da yaƙin ya taso.
22 VaIsraeri vaya vose vakanga vavanda munyika yezvikomo yeEfuremu pavakanzwa kuti vaFiristia vakanga votiza, vakateverawo muhondo vakavadzingirira zvikuru.
Sa’ad da dukan Isra’ilawan da suka ɓuya a duwatsu a ƙasar Efraim suka ji labari cewa Filistiyawa suna gudu, sai suka fito suka fafare su.
23 Saka Jehovha akarwira vaIsraeri pazuva iro, uye hondo yakaenderera mberi ikandopfuura Bheti Avheni.
Haka Ubangiji ya kuɓutar da Isra’ila a wannan rana. Yaƙin kuwa ya ci gaba har gaba da Bet-Awen.
24 Zvino varume veIsraeri vakaziya pazuva iro, nokuti Sauro akanga asunga vanhu nemhiko achiti, “Ngaatukwe munhu anodya zvokudya kusati kwadoka, ndisati ndazvitsivira vavengi vangu!” Saka hakuna munhu pavarwi akaravira chokudya.
A wannan rana, Isra’ilawa suka sha wahala ƙwarai domin Shawulu ya sa mutane suka yi rantsuwa cewa, “La’ananne ne mutumin da ya ci abinci kafin fāɗuwar rana, kafin in ɗauki fansa a kan abokan gābana.” Don haka ba mutumin da ya ɗanɗana abinci.
25 Hondo yose yakapinda musango, uye imomo maiva nouchi hwapasi.
Dukan rundunar ta shiga kurmi, sai ga zuma a ƙasa.
26 Vakati vapinda musango, vakaona uchi huchiyerera, asi hakuna akaisa ruoko rwake kumuromo wake, nokuti vakanga vachitya mhiko.
Da suka shiga ciki kurmin, suka ga zuma tana zubowa, duk da haka ba wanda ya sa yatsansa ya lasa saboda tsoron rantsuwar da suka yi.
27 Asi Jonatani akanga asina kunzwa kuti baba vake vakanga vasunga vanhu nemhiko, saka akatambanudza muromo wetsvimbo yakanga iri muruoko rwake akainyika muzinga rouchi. Akasimudzira ruoko rwake kumuromo wake, meso ake akabengenuka.
Yonatan bai san cewa mahaifinsa ya sa mutane suka yi rantsuwa ba. Sai ya sa gindin sandan da yake hannunsa a saƙar zuma, ya kai bakinsa. Nan da nan sai ya ji ƙarfin jiki ya zo masa.
28 Ipapo mumwe wavarwi akati kwaari, “Baba vako vasunga varwi nemhiko vachiti, ‘Ngaatukwe munhu upi zvake anodya zvokudya nhasi!’ Ndokusaka vanhu voziya.”
Sai wani soja ya gaya masa cewa, “Mahaifinka ya sa kowa ya yi rantsuwa cewa, ‘La’ananne ne mutumin da ya ci abinci kafin fāɗuwar rana!’ Shi ya sa duk sojojin ba su da ƙarfi.”
29 Jonatani akati, “Baba vangu vanetsa nyika. Tarirai muone kuzaruka kwaita meso angu pandaravira chidimbu chouchi uhu.
Yonatan ya ce, “Mahaifina ya jefa ƙasar cikin matsala. Duba yadda na ji ƙarfin jiki sa’ad da na ɗanɗana wannan’yar zuma mana.
30 Zvaiva nani sei dai vanhu vanga vadya nhasi zvimwe zvezvakapambwa zvavakatora kuvavengi vavo. Kuurayiwa kwavaFiristia hakwaizova kukuru here?”
Da yaya zai kasance ke nan da a ce an bar sojoji suka ci abincin da suka ƙwace daga abokan gābansu? Ai, da gawawwakin Filistiyawan da aka kashe sun fi haka.”
31 Musi iwoyo, shure kwokunge vaIsraeri vauraya vaFiristia kubva paMikimashi kusvika kuAijaroni, vakaneta kwazvo.
A ranan nan Isra’ilawa suka yi ta kashe Filistiyawa daga Mikmash har zuwa Aiyalon. Bayan haka gajiya ta kama su sosai saboda yunwa.
32 Vakamhanyira zvakapambwa, uye vakatora makwai, mombe nemhuru, vakazviuraya pasi ipapo uye vakazvidya, pamwe chete neropa razvo.
Sai suka yi warwason ganima, suka kwashe tumaki, da shanu, da maruƙa, suka yayyanka su, suka ci naman ɗanye.
33 Ipapo mumwe akati kuna Sauro, “Tarirai vanhu vari kutadzira Jehovha nokudya nyama ine ropa.” Iye akati, “Maputsa kutenda. Kungurutsirai dombo guru kuno uku izvozvi.”
Sai wani mutum ya ce wa Shawulu, “Duba, ga mutane suna zunubi ga Ubangiji, suna cin nama da jini.” Shawulu ya ce, “Kun ci amana. Ku mirgino babban dutse zuwa wurina nan da nan.”
34 Ipapo akati, “Endai pakati pavanhu mugovataurira kuti, ‘Mumwe nomumwe wenyu ngaauye nemombe yake, namakwai uye muzviurayire pano muzvidye. Musatadzira Jehovha muchidya nyama ichine ropa rayo.’” Saka munhu wose akauya nenzombe yake usiku ihwohwo akaiuraya ipapo.
Sa’an nan ya ce, “Ku tafi ku faɗa wa jama’a duka, su kawo shanu da tumaki a nan, su yayyanka, su ci a nan, don kada su yi wa Ubangiji zunubi da cin nama ɗanye.” Haka nan kowa ya kawo saniyarsa a daren, ya yanka a can.
35 Ipapo Sauro akavakira Jehovha aritari; yakanga iri nguva yake yokutanga kuita izvi.
Sa’an nan Shawulu ya gina wa Ubangiji bagade. Wannan ne bagade na farkon da ya gina.
36 Sauro akati, “Ngatiburukei zasi titevere vaFiristia usiku tindovaparadza kusvikira mambakwedza, uye tirege kusiya kana mumwe wavo ari mupenyu.” Ivo vakapindura vakati, “Itai zvamunoona kuti zvakanakisisa kwamuri.” Asi muprista akati, “Ngatibvunzei Mwari pano.”
Shawulu ya ce, “Mu bi gangara mu fafare Filistiyawa da dare mu washe su har gari yă waye, mu kuma karkashe kowannensu, kada mu bar wani da rai.” Suka ce, “Ka yi duk abin da ka ga ya fi maka kyau.” Amma firist ya ce, “Bari mu nemi nufin Allah tukuna.”
37 Saka Sauro akabvunza Mwari akati, “Ndoburuka nditevere vaFiristia here? Muchavaisa mumaoko avaIsraeri here?” Asi Mwari haana kumupindura musi iwoyo.
Saboda haka Shawulu ya tambayi Allah ya ce, “Mu bi bayan Filistiyawa? Za ka bashe su a hannun Isra’ila?” Amma Allah bai ba shi amsa a ranar ba.
38 Naizvozvo Sauro akati, “Uyai pano, imi mose vatungamiri vehondo, Ngatitsvakei chivi chaitwa nhasi.
Saboda haka Shawulu ya ce, “Ku zo nan dukanku shugabannin rundunoni, mu bincika mu san zunubin da ya kawo rashin amsan nan yau.
39 Zvirokwazvo naJehovha, iye akanunura upenyu hwavaIsraeri, kunyange dai ari Jonatani mwanakomana wangu, anofanira kufa.” Asi hapana kana mumwe wavarume akataura shoko.
Muddin Ubangiji wanda ya ceci Isra’ila yana raye, ko da ɗana Yonatan ne ya yi zunubin, dole yă mutu.” Amma ba ko ɗaya daga cikinsu da ya ce uffam.
40 Ipapo Sauro akati kuvaIsraeri vose, “Imi mirai uko; ini naJonatani mwanakomana wangu tichamira kuno uku.” Vanhu vakapindura vakati, “Itai zvamunoona kuti zvakanakisisa kwamuri.”
Sai Shawulu ya ce wa dukan Isra’ilawa, “Ku tsaya a can, ni kuma da Yonatan ɗana mu tsaya a nan.” Mutanen suka ce, “Ka yi abin da ya fi maka kyau.”
41 Ipapo Sauro akanyengetera kuna Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri akati, “Ndipeiwo mhinduro yakarurama.” Ipapo Jonatani naSauro vakabatwa nomujenya, vanhu vakawanikwa vasina mhosva.
Sa’an nan Shawulu ya yi addu’a ga Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce, “Me ya sa ba ka amsa mini addu’ata a yau ba? Idan wannan laifina ne, ko kuwa na ɗana, Yonatan, ka nuna mana ta wurin Urim, amma idan laifin mutanen ne ka amsa ta wurin Tummim.” Ba a sami mutane da laifi ba, amma ƙuri’a ta fāɗa a kan Yonatan da Shawulu.
42 Sauro akati, “Kandai mujenya pakati pangu nomwanakomana wangu Jonatani.” Ipapo Jonatani akabatwa.
Shawulu ya ce, “Ku jefa ƙuri’a tsakanina da ɗana Yonatan.” Sai ƙuri’ar ta fāɗa a kan Yonatan.
43 Ipapo Sauro akati kuna Jonatani, “Ndiudze zvawaita.” Saka Jonatani akati kwaari, “Ndangoravira uchi ushoma nomuromo wetsvimbo yangu. Zvino ndinofanira kufa here?”
Sai Shawulu ya ce wa Yonatan, “Gaya mini mene ne ka yi.” Yonatan ya ce masa, “Na ɗanɗana zuma kaɗan daga gindin sandanta. Yanzu kuwa dole in mutu!”
44 Sauro akati, “Mwari ngaandirove, ngaandirove kwazvo, kana iwe Jonatani ukasafa.”
Shawulu ya ce, “Bari hukunci mai tsanani na Allah yă kasance a kaina, in ba ka mutu ba, Yonatan.”
45 Asi vanhu vakati kuna Sauro, “Jonatani angafanira kufa, iye akaponesa vaIsraeri nokuponesa kukuru kuya? Kwete! Zvirokwazvo naJehovha mupenyu, hakuna kana bvudzi romusoro wake richawira pasi, nokuti aita izvi nhasi achibatsirwa naMwari.” Saka vanhu vakanunura Jonatani, uye haana kuurayiwa.
Amma mutane suka ce wa Shawulu, “A ce Yonatan yă mutu bayan shi ya kawo babban nasara a Isra’ila? Faufau, muddin Ubangiji yana raye, ko gashin kansa ɗaya ba zai fāɗi a ƙasa ba, gama abin da ya yi yau, Allah ne yana tare da shi.” Ta haka mutane suka ceci Yonatan daga mutuwa.
46 Ipapo Sauro akarega kutevera vaFiristia, uye vakadzokera kunyika yavo.
Sai Shawulu ya daina bin Filistiyawa, suka koma ƙasarsu.
47 Shure kwokugadzwa kwaSauro ushe pamusoro pavaIsraeri, akarwa navavengi vavo kumativi ose, vaiti: Moabhu, vaAmoni, Edhomu, madzimambo eZobha, navaFiristia. Kwose kwaakatendeukira, akavatambudza.
Bayan Shawulu ya hau karagar mulkin Isra’ila, ya yi yaƙi da abokan gābansu ta kowane gefe. Mowabawa, Ammonawa, mutanen Edom, sarakunan Zoba, da kuma Filistiyawa. Duk wurin da ya juya, ya hore su.

Ya yi jaruntaka sosai, ya ci Amalekawa da yaƙi, ya kuma ceci Isra’ila daga hannuwan waɗanda suka ƙwace musu kaya.
49 Vanakomana vaSauro vaiva Jonatani, Ishivhi naMarikishua. Zita romwanasikana wake wedangwe rainzi Merabhi, uye romuduku rainzi Mikari.
’Ya’yan Shawulu maza su ne, Yonatan, Ishbi, da Malki-Shuwa. Sunan babban’yarsa ita ce Merab, ƙaramar kuma Mikal.

52 Pamazuva ose aSauro pakanga pane hondo huru kwazvo navaFiristia, uye Sauro aiti kana akaona munhu ane simba uye akashinga, aimutora omuita murwi wake.
Dukan kwanakin Shawulu sun kasance na yaƙe-yaƙe da Filistiyawa ne. Duk lokacin da Shawulu ya ga ƙaƙƙarfan mutum ko jarumi, sai yă ɗauke shi aikin sojansa.
