Yosiua 6
1 Yeligou dunu da Isala: ili fi dunu ilima beda: iba: le, ilia moilai bai bagade gagoi logo ga: su da noga: le ga: i dagoi ba: i. Dunu da gadili masunu o ganodini misunu da hamedei.
Meanwhile, the guards of Jericho shut the gates of the city tightly, because [they were afraid] of the Israeli [army]. No one was allowed to go into the city or go out of it.
2 Hina Gode da Yosiuama amane sia: i, “Na da Yeligou moilai bai bagade amola Yeligou hina bagade amola ea dadi gagui dunu huluane dima imunu.
Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “Listen [to what I say]! I am going to enable your army [SYN] to capture/conquer [MTY] Jericho and its king and its soldiers.
3 Di amola dia dadi gagui dunu amo sisiga: le masa. Eso gafeyale ganodini agoane hamoma.
So your army must march around the city for six days, once each day.
4 Gobele salasu dunu fesuale amo afae afae dalabede gaguli da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili amoga bisili masunu. Eso fesuga dilia da Yeligou moilai bai bagade amo fesuale agoane sisiga: ma. Amola ahoasea, gobele salasu dunu da dalabede fulaboma: mu.
Tell seven priests to march around with them. Each priest must carry a trumpet. Four other priests must carry the sacred chest, and they must walk behind the priests who are carrying the trumpets. On the seventh day, the army must march around the city seven times, and the priests must be blowing the trumpets while they march.
5 Amasea, ilia da dalabede ha: giwane sedagawane afadafa fulaboma: mu. Amo nabasea, dunu huluane da gilisili ha: giwane wele sia: ma: mu. Amasea, Yeligou moilai bai bagade gagoi amo da mugululi dagoi ba: mu. Amasea, dilia dadi gagui dunu huluane da hedolo moilai bai bagade fane legemusa: masa: mu.”
[After they have all marched around the city seven times], the priests must blow their trumpets [once], very loudly. When the Israeli people/soldiers hear that, they must shout loudly. Then the wall of the city will collapse, and all the Israeli people/soldiers will go straight into the city.”
6 Yosiua da gobele salasu dunu gilisili ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili lale, dili dunu fesuale dalabede gaguiwane amoga bisili masa.”
So Joshua summoned the priests and said to them, “Tell four priests to carry the chest [that contains] the Ten Commandments that Yahweh [gave to us]. [Tell] seven [other] priests to carry trumpets and walk in front of them.”
7 Amalalu, e da dunu huluane ilima amane sia: i, “Defea! Gusuba: i masa! Ilegei dunu dadi gaguiwane Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili bisima. Eno dunu huluane fa: no bobogele moilai sisiga: ma.”
And Joshua told the soldiers, “Start marching! March around the city, with several soldiers with weapons marching in front. Behind them will march the seven priests with trumpets, and behind them will march the four priests carrying Yahweh’s [sacred] chest.”
After Joshua told that to the army, the seven priests, each carrying a sacred trumpet, started marching, blowing their trumpets. The four priests who were carrying Yahweh’s sacred chest followed them.
9 Yosiua ea sia: i defele, ilegei sosodo aligisu dunu da bisili, fa: no gobele salasu dunu fesuale da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili gaguli amola dalabede fulabosa asi. Amola fa: no dunu huluane da asili, Yeligou moilai bai bagade sisiga: le asi. Dalabede sia: bagade nabi.
The group of soldiers carrying weapons marched in front of the priests who were blowing their trumpets, and the rest of the soldiers followed [the four men carrying] the chest. While [they were all marching], [the seven priests] were blowing their trumpets.
10 Be Yosiua da dunu huluane ilima ouiya: ma: ne sia: beba: le, e da ilima bu sia: beba: le fawane wele sia: ma: ne sia: i.
But [the rest of] the people [were silent, because] Joshua had commanded them, “Do not make a war cry. Do not yell or say anything until the day when I tell you to shout. On that day, you must shout [loudly]!”
11 Dunu da Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili gaguli afae fawane moilai bai bagade sisiga: mu sia: i. Amalalu, ilia da abula diasu gilisisuga bu misini, golai.
So the men carrying Yahweh’s sacred chest and all the others did what Joshua told them to do. They marched around the city once. Then they all returned to their camp and stayed there that night.
The next morning, Joshua and the priests got up early, and the four priests carried Yahweh’s sacred chest [again].
13 Yosiua da golale, hahabedafa wa: legadole, gobele salasu amola dadi gagui da ilia musa: hamoi defele, Yeligou moilai bai bagade sisiga: i. Ilegei dadi gagui bisili, amalalu gobele salasu fesuale dalabede fulabolala asi, amalu gobele salasu dunu Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili gaguli asili, fa: no dunu huluane. Dalabede da fulabosa dalebe nabi.
The seven priests who were carrying trumpets went in front of [the men carrying] the chest. The seven priests were blowing their trumpets as they marched. The group of soldiers carrying weapons went in front of all the others, and the rest of the army followed all the others. All the time, the seven priests were blowing their trumpets.
14 Eso ageyaduga ilia da Yeligou moilai bai bagade afae fawane sisiga: le, abula diasuga buhagi. Ilia da eso gafeyale amoga agoane hou hamosu.
So on that second day they again marched around the city once and then returned to their camp. They did the same thing for six days.
15 Eso fesuga ilia da hahabedafa wa: legadole, ilia musa: hou defele Yeligou moilai bai bagade amo fesuale agoane sisiga: i.
On the seventh day, they got up at dawn, and they all marched around the city the same way that they had done before, but this time they marched around the city seven times.
16 Amo esoha, ilia da fesuale sisiga: lala, Yosiua da dunu huluane wele sia: ma: ne sia: i. E da ilima amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da Yeligou moilai bai bagade dilima i dagoi.
As they were marching around the seventh time, when the priests were about to blow the long/loud blast on their trumpets, Joshua commanded the people, “Shout, because Yahweh will enable you to capture the city!
17 Moilai bai bagade amola liligi huluane amo ganodini diala amo Godema gobele salasu agoane ima: ne, wadela: lesima. Be hina: da: i bidi lasu uda La: iha: be amola ea sosogo fi, amo fawane mae medole legema. Bai e da ninia desega ahoasu dunu ela wamolegei.
Yahweh has declared that you must destroy [IDM] the city and everything in it [to show that it belongs to him]. You must spare only Rahab the prostitute and the others who are in her house, because she hid the spies whom we sent there.
18 Be liligi huluane wadela: lesima. Dilia liligi mae lama. Agoane hamosea, Isala: ili dunu huluane da se bagade nabimu.
And because Yahweh has declared that everything must be destroyed [IDM], you must not take [EUP] any of the things in the city. If you take anything, you will cause Yahweh to destroy our own camp and cause terrible things to happen to us.
19 Be liligi eno amo da silifa, gouli o balasi amoga hamoi, amo huluane da Hina Godema ima: ne ilegei. Amo huluane dilia Hina Gode Ea muni ligisisu ganodini salima.
But all the silver and gold and articles made from iron and bronze that you find, you must set apart for Yahweh. You must put those things in his treasury.”
20 Amasea, gobele salasu dunu da dalabede fulaboi. Amo nababeba: le, dunu huluane da ha: giwane wele sia: i. Amalalu, Yeligou ea gagoi da mugululi sa: i dagoi. Amalalu, Isala: ili dadi gagui dunu huluane da moloiwane agoloba: le heda: le, Yeligou moilai bai bagade doagala: le lai dagoi.
So they did what Joshua told them to do. When the priests blew a long blast on their trumpets, the people/army shouted loudly, and the wall of the city collapsed! Then the Israeli soldiers rushed in and captured the city.
21 Ilia da dunu, uda amola mano huluane moilai bai bagade ganodini esala, amo gobiheiga medole legei dagoi. Ilia da bulamagau, sibi amola dougi huluane medole legei.
They killed [IDM] every living thing in the city—men and women, young people and old people, even cattle and sheep and donkeys.
22 Amalalu, Yosiua da musa: desega ahoasu dunu aduna elama amane sia: i, “Alia amo musa: wadela: i hamosu uda amo ea diasuga asili, e amola ea sosogo fi ali da ema sia: i defele, gadili oule misa.”
Then Joshua said to the two men (who had spied on/whom he had sent to learn all they could about) the land, “Go to the prostitute’s house. Bring her out, along with all her family, just as you promised to her.”
23 Amaiba: le, ela da asili, La: iha: be, ea eda, ame, yolalali amola sosogo fi gadili oule misi. Ili gaga: ma: ne, ela da sosogo fi amola ilia udigili hawa: hamosu dunu amo Isala: ili abula diasu gilisisuga oule asi.
So those two spies/men went into Rahab’s house and brought her out. They also brought out her father and mother and her brothers, and all the rest of her family. Joshua’s men spared Rahab the prostitute. They also did not kill all her relatives, because she had hidden and protected the spies/men whom Joshua had sent to Jericho. The two men brought them all out and put them in a place outside the camp of the Israelis. Rahab still lives among us Israeli people. Then the soldiers gathered the articles made from silver, gold, bronze, and iron that they found and they put them all into Yahweh’s treasury. But they burned everything else that was in the city.
24 Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da Yeligou moilai bai bagade amola liligi huluane amo ganodini diala amo laluga gobesi dagoi. Be liligi amo gouli, silifa, balasi amola amoga hamoi huluane ilia da lale, Hina Gode Ea muni ligisisu ganodini sali.
25 Be Yosiua da musa: wadela: le hamosu uda La: iha: be amola ea sosogo fi hame medole legei. Bai e da desega ahoasu dunu amo Yosiua da Yeligou moilai bai bagadega asunasi, amo wamoaligi. (La: iha: be egaga fi da Isala: ili soge ganodini esalu amola wali eso esalebe.)
26 Amo esoha, Yosiua da sisasu olelei, amane, “Nowa dunu da Yeligou moilai bai bagade bu gagusia da Hina Gode Ea gagabusu aligima: ne ba: mu. Nowa da amo moilai bai bagade ea bai gagusia da ea magobo mano fisi dagoi ba: mu. Amola nowa da amo moilai bai bagade ea gagoi logo ga: su gagusia da ea ufi mano fisi dagoi ba: mu.”
At that time, Joshua warned the people, “Yahweh will curse/punish anyone who tries to rebuild this city, Jericho. When that person lays/builds its foundation, his oldest son will die. And when he finishes building the city wall and sets up its gates, his youngest son will die.”
27 Hina Gode da Yosiua fidimusa: sigi esalu. Soge huluane amo ganodini, dunu huluane da Yosiua ea gasa bagade hou nabi dagoi.
Because of what happened that day, it was clear that Yahweh was with/helped Joshua, and Joshua became famous throughout the land.
