< Yosiua 8 >
1 Hina Gode da Yosiuama amane sia: i, “Dia dadi gagui dunu huluane oule asili, A:iai diasuga heda: ma. Mae da: i dioma amola mae beda: ma. Na da fidimuba: le, di da A: iai hina bagade hasalimu. Di da ea dunu fi, ea moilai bai bagade amola ea soge huluane lamu.
The LORD said to Joshua, “Don’t be afraid, and don’t be dismayed. Take all the warriors with you, and arise, go up to Ai. Behold, I have given into your hand the king of Ai, with his people, his city, and his land.
2 Dilia da Yeligou amola Yeligou hina bagadema hamoi amo defele A: iai amola ea hina bagadema defele hamoma. Be wali, liligi amola ohe fi amo ganodini diala amo dilisu lamu. Be ilia fofogadigima: ne, ilia fa: no bega: doagala: musa: masa.
You shall do to Ai and her king as you did to Jericho and her king, except you shall take its goods and its livestock for yourselves. Set an ambush for the city behind it.”
3 Amaiba: le, Yosiua amola ea dadi gagui dunu da A: iai diasu doagala: musa: momogi. E da ea dadi gagui dunu amo 30,000 ilegele, gasi ganodini gadili asunasi.
So Joshua arose, with all the warriors, to go up to Ai. Joshua chose thirty thousand men, the mighty men of valour, and sent them out by night.
4 E da ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia A: iai diasu na: iyado bega: fonobahadi gadenenewane wamoaligima. Ilima doagala: musa: momagema.
He commanded them, saying, “Behold, you shall lie in ambush against the city, behind the city. Don’t go very far from the city, but all of you be ready.
5 Na amola na dunu da moilai bai bagadega doagala: musa: misunu. A: iai dunu da ninima gegemusa: masea, ninia da musa: hamoi defele ogogole sinidigili iliba: le hobeamu.
I and all the people who are with me will approach the city. It shall happen, when they come out against us, as at the first, that we will flee before them.
6 Ilia da ninima fa: no bobogemu amola ninia da ili moilai bai bagade fisima: ne bisili hobeamu. Ninia da musa: hamoi defele ilima hobealala, amo ilia da dawa: mu.
They will come out after us until we have drawn them away from the city; for they will say, ‘They flee before us, like the first time.’ So we will flee before them,
7 Amasea, dilia da dilia wamoaligi sogebi fisili, moilai bai bagadega doagala: le lamu. Hina Gode da amo dilima imunu.
and you shall rise up from the ambush, and take possession of the city; for the LORD your God will deliver it into your hand.
8 Dilia moilai bai bagade huluane lai dagosea, amo Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele, laluga gobesima. Na da dilima sia: i dagoi.”
It shall be, when you have seized the city, that you shall set the city on fire. You shall do this according to the LORD’s word. Behold, I have commanded you.”
9 Amalalu, Yosiua da amo dunu gadili asunasili, ilia da ilia wamoaligi sogebiga asili, ouesalu. Amo sogebi da A: iai amoga eso dabe la: idi A: iai amola Bedele amoga dogoa dialu. Yosiua da amo gasia abula diasu gilisisuga esalu.
Joshua sent them out; and they went to set up the ambush, and stayed between Bethel and Ai on the west side of Ai; but Joshua stayed amongst the people that night.
10 Hahabedafa, Yosiua da wa: legadole, ea dadi gagui dunu gilisi. Amalalu, e amola Isala: ili ouligisu dunu da dadi gagui dunu bisili, A:iai moilai bai bagadega oule asi.
Joshua rose up early in the morning, mustered the people, and went up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people to Ai.
11 Dadi gagui dunu da A: iai moilai bai bagade logo holei bagade amoga doaga: musa: asili, ilia da gano la: idi amoga ha wa: i fisu gagui. Ilia da agologa esalu amola A: iai da agolo eno amoga dialu. Dogoa da fago soge ba: i.
All the people, even the men of war who were with him, went up and came near, and came before the city and encamped on the north side of Ai. Now there was a valley between him and Ai.
12 Yosiua da5000 dunu agoane lale, ilia da A: iai ea eso dabe la: idi (A: iai amola Bedele dogoa) amoga wamoaligi.
He took about five thousand men, and set them in ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of the city.
13 Dadi gagui da A: iai moilai bai bagadega doagala: musa: esalu. Bisili ha wa: i fisu esalebe dunu da gano la: idi dialu amola eno dunu da eso dabe la: ididili wamoaligili esalu. Yosiua da amo gasia umiga esalu.
So they set the people, even all the army who was on the north of the city, and their ambush on the west of the city; and Joshua went that night into the middle of the valley.
14 A: iai hina bagade dunu da Yosiua ea dunu ba: beba: le, hedolowane hamoi. E amola ea dunu huluane da Yodane umiga gadili asili, ilia da musa: sogebi Isala: ili dunuma gegei amoga bu gegemusa: dawa: i galu. Be Isala: ili dunu da ea baligiga doagala: musa: esalu, amo e da hame dawa: i galu.
When the king of Ai saw it, they hurried and rose up early, and the men of the city went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at the time appointed, before the Arabah; but he didn’t know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.
15 Yosiua amola ea dunu da ogogole A: iai dunuma hobeamusa: , hafoga: i sogega hehenai.
Joshua and all Israel made as if they were beaten before them, and fled by the way of the wilderness.
16 A: iai hina bagade da ea dunu huludafa Yosiua ea dunu sefasimusa: masa: ne sia: i. Ilia da hehenane, ilia moilai bai bagade da baligidu beba: loba da sedagawane ba: i.
All the people who were in the city were called together to pursue after them. They pursued Joshua, and were drawn away from the city.
17 A: iai dunu huluanedafa da Isala: ili dunu sefasi. A: iai moilai bai bagade logo da doasi dagoi amola gaga: su dunu hamedafa ba: i.
There was not a man left in Ai or Bethel who didn’t go out after Israel. They left the city open, and pursued Israel.
18 Amalalu, Hina Gode da Yosiuama amane sia: i, “Dia goge agei amo A: iai moilai bai bagadega sogiagama. Na da amo moilai bai bagade dima imunu.” Yosiua da amo sia: i defele hamoi.
The LORD said to Joshua, “Stretch out the javelin that is in your hand towards Ai, for I will give it into your hand.” Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand towards the city.
19 E da ea lobo ligia gadole, Isala: ili dunu da ilia wamoaligisu hedolo fisili, moilai bai bagadega hehenane, lai dagoi. Ilia da hedolowane A: iai moilai bai bagade ulagimusa: lalu didi.
The ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand and entered into the city and took it. They hurried and set the city on fire.
20 A: iai dunu da beba: loba, lalu mobi heda: lebe muagado doaga: i amo ba: i. Isala: ili dunu da hafoga: i sogega hehenai amo da sinidigili ilima doagala: musa: mabeba: le, ilia da hobeamu logo hame ba: i.
When the men of Ai looked behind them, they saw, and behold, the smoke of the city ascended up to heaven, and they had no power to flee this way or that way. The people who fled to the wilderness turned back on the pursuers.
21 Yosiua amola ea dunu da eno dunu da A: iai moilai bai bagade lale, laluga gobesi amo ba: beba: le, sinidigili, A:iai dunu fane legemusa: asi.
When Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city, and that the smoke of the city ascended, then they turned back and killed the men of Ai.
22 Isala: ili dunu A: iai moilai bai bagade ganodini esalu da amo gegesu fidimusa: misi. Amalalu, A:iai dunu da Isala: ili dunu amoma sisiga: i dagoi ba: i. A: iai dunu afae da hame hobea: i, huluane bogogia: i dagoi ba: i.
The others came out of the city against them, so they were in the middle of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side. They struck them, so that they let none of them remain or escape.
23 Be A: iai hina bagade da hame bogoi. Isala: ili dunu da amo hina bagade lale, afugili, Yosiuama hiouginana asi.
They captured the king of Ai alive, and brought him to Joshua.
24 Isala: ili dunu da A: iai dunu huluane amo wadela: i soge amo ganodini medole legei dagoi. Amalalu, ilia da sinidigili, A:iai moilai bai bagade ganodini esalebe dunu, uda amola mano huluane medole legei.
When Israel had finished killing all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness in which they pursued them, and they had all fallen by the edge of the sword until they were consumed, all Israel returned to Ai and struck it with the edge of the sword.
All that fell that day, both of men and women, were twelve thousand, even all the people of Ai.
26 Yosiua da ea goge agei amo A: iai moilai bai bagadega sogiagai mae fisili, dunu huluanedafa da medole legei dagoiba: le fawane yolesi. A: iai ganodini esalebe huluane da bogogia: i. Idi da dunu 12,000 agoane amola uda.
For Joshua didn’t draw back his hand, with which he stretched out the javelin, until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai.
27 Hina Gode da Yosiuama sia: i defele, Isala: ili dunu ilisu da ohe fi amola liligi amo moilai bai bagade ganodini galu gagulaligimusa: lai.
Israel took for themselves only the livestock and the goods of that city, according to the LORD’s word which he commanded Joshua.
28 Yosiua da A: iai moilai bai bagade laluga gobesi amola wadela: lesi dagoi. Wali eso, amo moilai bai bagade da amaiwane diala.
So Joshua burnt Ai and made it a heap forever, even a desolation, to this day.
29 E da A: iai hina bagade ifaga hegoa: nesili, ea da: i hodo daeya doaga: ma: ne yolesi. Eso dabe amoga, e da amo hina bagade ea da: i hodo fadegama: ne sia: i. Amo lale, ilia da moilai bai bagade holeiga gisalugala: i. Ilia da ea da: i hodo amo igi ligisisu bagadega dedeboi. Amo igi ligisisu da wali eso amogawi diala.
He hanged the king of Ai on a tree until the evening. At sundown, Joshua commanded, and they took his body down from the tree and threw it at the entrance of the gate of the city, and raised a great heap of stones on it that remains to this day.
30 Amasea, Yosiua da Iba: le Goumia, Isala: ili fi ilia Hina Godema oloda hamoi.
Then Joshua built an altar to the LORD, the God of Israel, on Mount Ebal,
31 Amo oloda, e da Mousese, Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamosu dunu amo ea olelei defele gagui. Mousese hamoma: ne sia: i defele, “oloda igiga hamoi be amo igi da gobihei o goahei amoga hame hedofai ba: mu.” Amo oloda da: iya, ilia da Hina Godema gobele salasu gobesi amola ilia da Hahawane Gilisili Olofole Iasu Godema i.
as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses: an altar of uncut stones, on which no one had lifted up any iron. They offered burnt offerings on it to the LORD and sacrificed peace offerings.
32 Amogawi, Isala: ili dunu huluane ba: lalu, Yosiua da sema amo Mousese da dedei, amo igi gasui enoga bu dedei.
He wrote there on the stones a copy of Moses’ law, which he wrote in the presence of the children of Israel.
33 Isala: ili dunu, ilia hina dunu, ouligisu dunu, ilia fofada: su dunu amola ilia gilisisu ganodini esalebe ga fi dunu da Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili la: ididili amola la: ididili lelu. Ilia da gobele salasu dunu amo da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili gagui, amo ilia odagia ba: sa lelu. Isala: ili dunu dogoa mogili, la: idi da Gelesime Goumi ilia baligiga ba: i, la: idi da Iba: le Goumi ilia baligiga ba: i. Ilia da Gode Ea hahawane dogolegele fidisu lama: ne, Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamosu dunu Mousese da ili amo hou hamoma: ne musa: sia: i dagoi.
All Israel, with their elders, officers, and judges, stood on both sides of the ark before the Levitical priests, who carried the ark of the LORD’s covenant, the foreigner as well as the native; half of them in front of Mount Gerizim, and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded at the first, that they should bless the people of Israel.
34 Amalalu, Yosiua da dunu huluane nabima: ne, Sema huluane idi dagoi. E da hahawane dogolegele fidisu sia: huluane amola gagabusu aligima: ne sia: huluane Sema buga ganodini dedei amo defele idi.
Afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessing and the curse, according to all that is written in the book of the law.
35 Yosiua da Mousese ea hamoma: ne sia: i amo huluanedafa dunu gilisisu (amo gilisisu ganodini, dunu, uda, mano amola ga fi dunu huluane esalebe ba: i) ilima idi dagoi.
There was not a word of all that Moses commanded which Joshua didn’t read before all the assembly of Israel, with the women, the little ones, and the foreigners who were amongst them.
