< Yosiua 9 >
1 Yodane Hano eso dabe la: idi hina bagade dunu huluane da Isala: ili dunu ilia gasa bagade hasalasu hou nabi dagoi. Amo hou ilia da goumi soge ganodini, umi soge Medidela: inia Wayabo Bagade bega: amola soge gano asili Lebanone sogega doaga: i, amo esalebe dunu huluane da Isala: ili dunu ilia hou nabi. Amo hina bagade dunu ilia fi da Hidaide, A:moulaide, Ga: ina: naide, Belesaide, Haifaide amola Yebiusaide.
And it came to pass, when all the kings that were on this side of the Jordan, in the mountain, and in the lowlands, and in all the coast of the great sea opposite Lebanon, the Hittites, and the Emorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, heard this,
2 Amo hina bagade dunu da gilisili, Yosiua amola Isala: ili dunu ilima gegemusa: gilisi.
That they assembled themselves all together, to fight with Joshua and with Israel, with one accord.
3 Be Gibionaide dunu (ilia da Haifaide fi dunu) ilia da Yosiua ea hou amo Yeligou amola A: iai amoma hamoi nababeba: le,
And when the inhabitants of Gib'on heard what Joshua had done unto Jericho and unto 'Ai,
4 ilia da Yosiuama ogogomusa: dawa: i galu. Ilia da ha: i manu lale, ilia dougi da: iya esa wadela: lesi dagoi amola waini gadofo gadelale nodomei ligisi.
They also did work wilily, and went and feigned to be messengers, and took old sacks for their asses, and wine-bottles, old, and rent, and bound up;
5 Ilia da abula wadela: i amola hea emo salasu wadela: iba: le nodomei gasisali.
And [put] old and patched-up shoes upon their feet, and old garments upon themselves; and all the bread of their provision was dry and mouldy.
6 Amalalu, ilia da Isala: ili abula diasu gilisisu Giliga: le amoga gala amoga asili, Yosiua amola Isala: ili dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Ninia da soge sedagaga misi. Ninia da dilima gousa: su hamomu galebe.”
And they went to Joshua unto the camp at Gilgal, and said unto him, and to the men of Israel, We are come from a far-off country; and now make ye a covenant with us.
7 Be Isala: ili dunu da amane sia: i, “Ninia da dilima gousa: su abuliga hamoma: bela: ? Amabela: ? Dilia da gadenene esalabala?”
And the men of Israel said unto the Hivites, Peradventure ye dwell in the midst of us; and how can we make a covenant with you:
8 Ilia da Yosiuama amane sia: i, “Ninia da dia hawa: hamosu dunu esala.” Yosiua da ilima amane adole ba: i, “Dilia da nowala: ? Dilia da habidili misibala: ?”
And they said unto Joshua, We are thy servants. And Joshua said unto them, Who are ye? and whence come ye!
9 Amalalu, ilia da amo sia: ema olelei, “Ninia da dilia Hina Gode Ea hou nababeba: le, soge sedade amoga misi dagoi. Ninia da Ea hou Idibidi soge ganodini hamoi,
And they said unto him, From a very far-off country are thy servants come, because of the name of the Lord thy God; for we have heard his fame, and all that he hath done in Egypt;
10 amola E da A: moulaide hina bagade aduna Yodane Hano eso mabadi la: idiga esalu (amo da Hesiabone hina bagade amo ea dio Saihone amola Ba: isia: ne hina bagade Asiadalode moilai bai bagadega esalu amo ea dio Oge) Hina Gode da elama hamoi, amo ninia nabi.
And all that he hath done to the two kings of the Emorites, that were beyond the Jordan, to Sichon the king of Cheshbon, and to 'Og the king of Bashan, who was at 'Ashtaroth.
11 Ninia ouligisu dunu amola fi dunu huluane ninia soge ganodini esala da nini ha: i manu momagele, dima gousa: musa: masa: ne sia: i. Ilia da nini da dima hawa: hamomusa: sia: ne, dilima gousa: su hamoma: ne sia: i.
Wherefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country said to us, as followeth, Take provisions with you for the journey, and go to meet them, and say unto them, Your servants are we: and now make ye with us a covenant.
12 Ninia agi ga: gi ba: ma! Ninia da dilima gousa: musa: nini soge fisili, amo agi ga: gi da gugumi ba: i. Ba: ma! Wali amo da hafoga: i amola moloba: fi dagoi.
This our bread we took hot for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you; and now, behold, it is dry, and it is become mouldy:
13 Ninia da waini amo waini gadofo ganodini sogasalaloba, waini gadofo da gaheabolo ba: i. Be wali ilia da gadelai. Ninia sedagaga misiba: le ninia abula amola emo salasu da hea hamoi dagoi.”
And these wine-bottles, which we filled, when new, — but behold, they are now become rent; and these our garments and our shoes are become worn out by reason of the very long journey.
14 Isala: ili dunu da ilima ha: i manu lai, be ilia hou dawa: ma: ne Hina Godema hame adole ba: i.
And the men took of their provisions, but the decision of the Lord they did not ask.
15 Yosiua da hahawane gousa: su ilima hamoi amola amo dunu hame medole legei. Isala: ili ouligisu dunu da dafawane amo gousa: su hame fisima: ne ilegele sia: i.
And Joshua made peace with them, and made a covenant with them, to let them live; and the princes of the congregation swore unto them.
16 Be eso udiana asili, Isala: ili dunu da Gibionaide dunu da gadenene fi amo nabi dagoi.
And it came to pass at the end of three days after they had made a covenant with them, that they heard that they were their neighbors, and that they dwelt in the midst of them.
17 Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da asili, eso udiana asili ilia esalebe moilale bai bagadega doaga: i. Amo moilale gagai bai bagade ilia dio da Gibione, Gifaila, Bialode amola Gilia: de Yialimi.
And the children of Israel broke up, and came unto their cities on the third day; and their cities were Gib'on, and Kephirah, and Beeroth, and Kiryath-ye'arim.
18 Be Isala: ili ouligisu dunu da Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le amo dunu hame medomu ilegele sia: i dagoiba: le, ilia da amo dunu medole legemu hamedei ba: i. Isala: ili dunu huluane da ilia ouligisu dunuma sia: ga gegei.
And the children of Israel smote them not; because the princes of the congregation had sworn unto them by the Lord, the God of Israel; but all the congregation murmured against the princes.
19 Be Isala: ili ouligisu dunu da bu adole i, “Ninia da Isala: ili Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le amo dunuma sia: i dagoiba: le, ninia da ilima se imunu hamedei.
And all the princes said unto all the congregation, We have sworn unto them by the Lord the God of Israel: and now we cannot touch them.
20 Ninia sia: i dagoiba: le, amo dunu hame medole legemu. Amai hame galea, Gode da ninima se imunu.
This will we do to them, and we will let them live, that there be no wrath upon us, on account of the oath which we have sworn unto them.
21 Ilia da esalumu da defea. Be ilia da ninia lalu habei amola hano nasu gaguli misunu.”
And the princes said unto them, Let them live: and they became hewers of wood and drawers of water unto all the congregation, as the princes had spoken unto them.
22 Yosiua da Isala: ili dunuma ilia da Gibionaide dunu ema oule misa: ne sia: i. E da ilima amane adole ba: i, “Dilia da abuliba: le ninima ogogobela: ? Dilia gadenene esalebeba: le, abuliba: le sedagaga esala sia: bela: ?
And Joshua called for them, and he spoke unto them, saying, Wherefore have ye deceived us, saying, We are very far from you: whereas ye dwell in the midst of us?
23 Dilia da agoane hamoiba: le, Gode da dilima ougi, se imunu. Dilia fi da mae fisili, eso huluane udigili hawa: hamosu dunu esalumu. Dilia da na Gode Ea modale ligiagai diasuga lalu habele amola hano dili gaguli misunu.
And now be ye cursed, and there shall not cease to be of you servants and hewers of wood and drawers of water for the house of my God.
24 Ilia da bu adole i, “Ninia da sia: amo dilia Hina Gode da Ea hawa: hamosu dunu Mousese ema soge huluane lama amola amo ganodini fi dunu huluane medole legema sia: i dagoi, amo nababeba: le ninia da agoane hamoi. Ninia da dilima bagade beda: iba: le amola nini da bogosa: besa: le amo ogogosu hamoi.
And they answered Joshua, and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants, how that the Lord thy God had commanded his servant Moses to give unto you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; wherefore we were sore afraid for our lives because of you, and we have done this thing.
25 Be wali ninia da dia lobo ganodini gagui gala. Dia asigi dawa: su defele ninima hamoma.”
And now, behold, we are in thy hand; as it seemeth good and right in thy eyes to do unto us, so do.
26 Amaiba: le Yosiua da agoane hamoi. E da Gibionaide dunu gaga: i amola Isala: ili dunuma amo mae medoma: ne sia: i.
And he did unto them thus; and he delivered them out of the hand of the children of Israel, and they slew them not.
27 Be e da ili da udigili hawa: hamoma: ne sia: i. Ilia da Isala: ili dunuma amola Hina Gode Ea oloda amoga lalu habele, amola hano dili gaguli misi. Amola mae fisili hamonanu, ilia da wali eso amola Hina Godema nodomusa: sogebi E da ilegei, amoga ilia da amo udigili hawa: hamonana.
And Joshua appointed them on that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation, and for the altar of the Lord, even unto this day, for the place which he should choose.
