1 Mafumu onse okhala kumadzulo kwa Yorodani atamva zimenezi pamodzi ndi mafumu okhala ku mayiko a ku mapiri, mu zigwa, mʼmbali mwa Nyanja yayikulu mpaka ku Lebanoni (mafumu a Ahiti, Aamori, Akanaani, Aperezi, Ahivi, ndi Ayebusi),
A LOHE na'lii a pau loa ma keia aoao o Ioredane, ma na mauna, a ma na awawa, a makai ma kahi e pili ana i ka moana nui ma ke alo o Lebanona, o ka Heta, a me ka Amora, a me ko Kanaana, a me ka Pereza, a me ka Heva, a me ka Iebusa,
2 anapangana kuti achite nkhondo ndi Yoswa ndi Israeli.
Alaila, hoakoakoa mai la lakou e kaua lokahi mai ia Iosua, a me ka Iseraela.
3 Koma Ahivi ena a ku Gibiyoni atamva zomwe Yoswa anachitira mizinda ya Yeriko ndi Ai,
A lohe ka poe i noho ma Gibeona i ka mea a Iosua i hana'i ia Ieriko a me Ai,
4 anaganiza zochita zachinyengo. Anapita nasenzetsa abulu awo chakudya mʼmatumba akalekale ndiponso matumba a vinyo achikopa ongʼambikangʼambika.
Alaila hana maalea iho la lakou, a hele aku la, hoomakaukau iho la i o na lakou; a lawe no hoi lakou i na puolo kahiko ma ko lakou mau hoki, a me na hueili waina kahiko, a ua haehae, a ua pahonoia;
5 Anthuwa anavala nsapato zakutha ndi zazigamba ndiponso anavala sanza. Buledi wawo yense anali wowuma ndi wowola.
A me na kamaa kahiko, a hawele iho la ma ko lakou kapuwai, a aahu iho la i ka lole kahiko; a o ka berena, ka lakou ai, ua maloo a okaoka.
6 Ndipo anapita kwa Yoswa ku msasa ku Giligala ndikumuwuza kuti, pamodzi ndi Aisraeli onse, “Ife tachokera ku dziko lakutali, ndipo tikufuna kuti muchite mgwirizano ndi ife.”
A hele mai la lakou io Iosua la, ma kahi a lakou i hoomoana'i ma Gilegala, i mai la ia ia, a me na kanaka o ka Iseraela, Ua hele mai nei makou, mai ka aina loihi mai; no ia mea, e hana kakou i olelo kuikahi.
7 Koma Aisraeli anayankha Ahiviwo kuti, “Mwinatu inu mukukhala pafupi ndi ife. Tsono ife tingachite bwanji mgwirizano ndi inu?”
I aku la na kanaka o ka Iseraela i ka poe Heva, Ke noho nei paha oukou iwaena o makou: pehea la makou e hana'i me oukou i olelo kuikahi?
8 Iwo anati kwa Yoswa, “Ife ndife akapolo anu.” Tsono Yoswa anawafunsa kuti, “Inu ndinu yani ndipo mukuchokera kuti?”
I mai la lakou ia Iosua, He poe kauwa makou nau. I aku la o Iosua ia lakou, Owai oukou? a mai hea mai oukou i hele mai nei?
9 Iwo anayankha kuti, “Akapolo anufe tachokera ku dziko lakutali chifukwa tamva za Yehova Mulungu wanu. Tamva mbiri yonse ya zimene Iye anachita ku Igupto,
I mai la lakou ia ia, O kau poe kauwa nei, ua hele mai makou, mai ka aina loihi loa mai, no ka inoa o Iehova o kou Akua: no ka mea, ua lohe makou i kona kaulana ana, a me na mea a pau ana i hana'i ma Aigupita,
10 ndi zonse zimene anachita kwa mafumu awiri a Aamori kummawa kwa Yorodani, mfumu Sihoni ya Hesiboni ndi Ogi mfumu ya Basani amene amalamulira ku Asiteroti.
A me na mea a pau ana i hana aku ai i na'lii elua o ka Amora, mao aku o Ioredane, ia Sihona, ke alii o Hesebona, a me Oga, ke alii o Basana, aia ma Asetarota.
11 Tsono akuluakulu athu ndi onse amene akukhala mʼdziko lathu anati kwa ife. Tengani chakudya cha pa ulendo wanu. Pitani mukakumane nawo ndipo mukati kwa iwo, ‘Ife ndife akapolo anu, ndipo tikufuna kuti mugwirizane nafe za mtendere.’”
Nolaila i olelo mai ai ko makou poe lunakahiko, a me ka poe a pau i noho i ko makou aina, i mai la ia makou, E lawe oukou ma ko oukou lima i o na oukou ma ke ala, a e hele e halawai me lakou, a e i aku ia lakou, O ka oukou kauwa makou, e hana kakou i olelo kuikahi.
12 Buledi wathuyu anali wotentha pamene timanyamuka ku mudzi kubwera kwa inu. Koma tsopano taonani ali gwaa ndiponso wawola.
O keia berena a makou, o ka makou o noloko mai o ko makou hale, ua hoomakaukau hou ia no makou, i ko makou la i hele mai ai e halawai me oukou, aia hoi, ua maloo, a ua helelei.
13 Zikopa zimene tinathiramo vinyozi zinali zatsopano, koma taonani zathetheka. Zovala zathu ndi nsapato zathu zatha chifukwa cha kutalika kwa ulendo.
O keia mau hueili waina hoi, a makou i ukuhi hou ai, aia, ua nahaehae. A o keia mau aahu o makou, a me ko makou kamaa, ua weluwelu, no ka loihi loa o ke ala.
14 Aisraeli anatengako chakudya chawo koma sanafunse kwa Yehova.
Lawe no na kanaka i ka lakou ai, aole hoi i ninau aku ma ka waha o Iehova.
15 Choncho Yoswa anapangana nawo za mtendere kuti sadzawapha, ndipo atsogoleri a gulu anavomereza pochita lumbiro.
Hoomalu aku la o Iosua ia lakou, a hana iho la i olelo kuikahi me lakou, e ola'i lakou; a hoohiki aku la na luna o ka Iseraela ia lakou.
16 Patatha masiku atatu atachita mgwirizano wa mtendere ndi Agibiyoni, Aisraeli anamva kuti anali anansi awo, anthu amene amakhala nawo pafupi.
A mahope iho, i ka pau ana o na la ekolu, mai ka wa mai o ka lakou hana ana i ka olelo kuikahi, alaila lohe o Iosua ma, he kamaaina lakou, a ua noho pu me lakou.
17 Tsono Aisraeli ananyamuka ulendo ndipo tsiku lachitatu anafika ku mizinda ya Gibiyoni, Kefira, Beeroti ndi Kiriati-Yearimu.
Hele ae la na mamo a Iseraela, a po akolu hiki i ko lakou mau kulanakauhale. Eia ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, o Gibeona, o Hepira, o Beerota a me Kiriatiarima.
18 Koma Aisraeli sanawaphe anthuwo chifukwa atsogoleri awo anali atalonjeza mʼdzina la Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli za Agibiyoniwo. Koma anthu onse anatsutsana ndi atsogoleriwo.
Aole i pepehi aku na mamo a Iseraela, no ka mea, ua hoohiki ia lakou na luna o ka Iseraela, ma Iehova, ke Akua o Iseraela. Ohumu iho la na kanaka a pau i na luna.
19 Koma atsogoleriwo anayankha kuti, “Ife tinawalonjeza mʼdzina la Yehova, Mulungu wa Israeli, ndipo tsopano sitingawaphe.
Aka, olelo mai la na luna a pau i kanaka a pau, Ua hoohiki no makou ia lakou, ma Iehova, ke Akua o Iseraela. Nolaila aole pono e hoopa aku kakou ia lakou.
20 Chimene tidzachita nawo ndi ichi: Tidzawasiya akhale ndi moyo kuti mkwiyo wa Yehova usatigwere chifukwa chophwanya lonjezo limene tinawalonjeza.”
Eia ka kakou e hana aku ai ia lakou. E hoola no kakou ia lakou, o huhuia mai kakou, no ka hoohiki ana a makou i hoohiki ai ia lakou.
21 Anapitiriza kunena kuti “Asiyeni akhale ndi moyo, komabe akhale otidulira mitengo ndi kutitungira madzi ogwiritsa ntchito pa chipembedzo.” Lonjezo la atsogoleriwo linasungidwa.
I mai la na luna i ka Iseraela, E ola no lakou, aka, e lilo no lakou i poe kalai laau, a i poe huki wai, no ke anainakanaka a pau, e like me ka na luna i olelo aku ai ia lakou.
22 Kenaka Yoswa anayitanitsa Agibiyoni aja nawafunsa kuti, “Chifukwa chiyani inu munatinyenga ponena kuti mumachokera kutali pamene zoona zake nʼzoti mumakhala pafupi pomwe pano?
Kii aku la o Iosua ia lakou, ninau aku la, me ka i ana aku ia lakou, No ke aha la oukou i nolu mai ai a puni makou, me ka olelo mai, Ua loihi aku makou, mai o oukou aku; a eia hoi oukou, ke noho nei iwaena o makou?
23 Tsopano popeza mwachita izi, Mulungu wakutembererani ndipo palibe wina mwa inu amene akhale mfulu. Nthawi zonse inu muzidzatidulira nkhuni ndi kutitungira madzi ku Nyumba ya Yehova.”
No ia mea e poino auanei oukou, aole loa e kuuia kekahi o oukou; e lilo no oukou i poe kauwa, a i poe kalai laau, a i poe huki wai, no ka hale o ko'u Akua.
24 Iwo anayankha Yoswa kuti, “Ife akapolo anufe tinachita zimenezi chifukwa tinamva bwino lomwe kuti Yehova Mulungu wanu analamula Mose mtumiki wake kuti adzakupatsani dziko lonseli ndi kuti anthu onse okhalamo adzaphedwe. Tsono ife tinachita mantha aakulu ndipo tinachita zimenezi pofuna kupulumutsa miyoyo yathu.
Olelo mai lakou ia Iosua, i mai la, No ka hai maopopo ia mai i kau poe kauwa nei, ka mea a Iehova kou Akua i kauoha mai ai i kana kauwa ia Mose, e haawi mai i ka aina a pau no oukou, a e luku hoi i na kanaka a pau o ka aina, imua o oukou; nolaila, i makau loa ai makou i ko makou ola, no oukou, a ua hana hoi i keia mea.
25 Tsopanotu ife tili mʼmanja mwanu, ndipo inu chitani nafe monga kukukomerani.”
Eia hoi makou iloko o kou lima; a o ka mea pono a pololei hoi i kou manao, o kau ia e hana mai ai ia makou.
26 Tsono Yoswa anawapulumutsa mʼmanja mwa Aisraeli ndipo sanawaphe.
A pela no ia i hana aku ai ia lakou, a hoopakele ia lakou, mai ka lima ae o na mamo a Iseraela, i pepehi ole aku lakou.
27 Kuyambira tsiku limenelo Agibiyoni aja anasanduka odula nkhuni zaguwa lansembe la Yehova ndiponso otunga madzi. Mpaka lero lino iwo akuchitabe zimenezi kulikonse kumene Yehova anasankha.
Ia la, hoolilo iho la o Iosua ia lakou i poe kalai laau, a i poe huki wai no na kanaka, a no ke kuahu o Iehova, ma kahi ana i makemake ai, pela no, a hiki loa mai i neia la.
