< Joshua 10 >

1 Eka Adoni-Zedek ruodh Jerusalem nowinjo ni Joshua osekawo Ai mi okethe chuth kendo onego ruodhe mana kaka nosetimone Jeriko kendo ni jo-Gibeon osetimo winjruok mar kwe gi jo-Israel mi gidak butgi.
And it cometh to pass, when Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heareth that Joshua hath captured Ai, and doth devote it (as he had done to Jericho and to her king so he hath done to Ai and to her king), and that the inhabitants of Gibeon have made peace with Israel, and are in their midst, —
2 En gi joge ne gibuok ahinya kuom wachni nikech Gibeon ne en dala maduongʼ mongirore, mana kaka achiel kuom mier madongo maka ruoth. Ne oduongʼ moloyo Ai, kendo joge duto ne gin jokedo mabeyo.
that they are greatly afraid, because Gibeon [is] a great city, as one of the royal cities, and because it [is] greater than Ai, and all its men — heroes.
3 Omiyo Adoni-Zedek ruodh Jerusalem nokwayo Hoham, ruodh Hebron, Piram ruodh Jarmuth, Jafia ruodh Lakish kod Debir ruodh Eglon niya,
And Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem sendeth unto Hoham king of Hebron, and unto Piram king of Jarmuth, and unto Japhia king of Lachish, and unto Debir king of Eglon, saying,
4 “Biuru mondo ukonya monjo Gibeon nikech oseloso kwe kod Joshua gi jo-Israel.”
'Come up unto me, and help me, and we smite Gibeon, for it hath made peace with Joshua, and with the sons of Israel.'
5 Eka ruodhi abich mar jo-Amor; ruodhi ma Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lakish to gi Eglon noriwo jolwenjgi kaachiel. Negidhi kod jolweny mag-gi mi gimonjo Gibeon kendo gikedo kodgi.
And five kings of the Amorite (the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon) are gathered together, and go up, they and all their camps, and encamp against Gibeon, and fight against it.
6 Jo-Gibeon nooro wach ni Joshua e kambi man Gilgal niya, “Kik ijwangʼ jotichgi. Bi irwa piyo mondo ireswa! Konywa nikech ruodhi jo-Amor duto moa e piny manie wi got oseriwore mondo omonjwa.”
And the men of Gibeon send unto Joshua, unto the camp at Gilgal, saying, 'Let not thy hand cease from thy servants; come up unto us [with] haste, and give safety to us, and help us; for all the kings of the Amorite, dwelling in the hill-country, have been assembled against us.'
7 Omiyo Joshua kaachiel gi jolweny mage mathuondi nowuok Gilgal mapiyo nono mondo odhi oresgi.
And Joshua goeth up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, even all the mighty men of valour.
8 Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Joshua niya, “Kik iluorgi; asechiwogi e lwetu. Onge kata ngʼata achiel kuomgi mabiro sirou.”
And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, 'Be not afraid of them, for into thy hand I have given them, there doth not stand a man of them in thy presence.'
9 Kane gisewuotho otieno duto ka gia Gilgal, Joshua nomonjogi apoya.
And Joshua cometh in unto them suddenly (all the night he hath gone up from Gilgal),
10 Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo gichalo joma orundore e nyim jo-Israel, mine giloyogi gi loch maduongʼ e Gibeon. Jo-Israel nolawogi ka giluwo yo madhi Beth Horon mi ginegogi ma gichopo kodgi nyaka Azeka kod Makeda.
and Jehovah doth crush them before Israel, and it smiteth them — a great smiting — at Gibeon, and pursueth them the way of the ascent of Beth-Horon, and smiteth them unto Azekah, and unto Makkedah.
11 E kinde mane giringo e nyim jo-Israel e yo moa Beth Horon kadhi Azeka, Jehova Nyasaye nolwaro pe madongo kuomgi koa e polo kendo thothgi nomedo tho nikech peno nonego ji mangʼeny moloyo mago mane jo-Israel onego gi ligangla.
And it cometh to pass, in their fleeing from the face of Israel — they [are] in the descent of Beth-Horon — and Jehovah hath cast upon them great stones out of the heavens, unto Azekah, and they die; more are they who have died by the hailstones than they whom the sons of Israel have slain by the sword.
12 E odiechiengʼ mane Jehova Nyasaye ochiwo jo-Amor ni jo-Israel, Joshua nowachone Jehova Nyasaye e nyim jo-Israel niya, “Yaye wangʼ chiengʼ, chungʼ kar tiendi ewi Gibeon, to in dwe, chungʼ mana ewi holo mar Aijalon.”
Then speaketh Joshua to Jehovah in the day of Jehovah's giving up the Amorites before the sons of Israel, and he saith, before the eyes of Israel, 'Sun — in Gibeon stand still; and moon — in the valley of Ajalon;'
13 Omiyo wangʼ chiengʼ nochungʼ kar tiende, to dwe bende ne ok osudo, nyaka oganda mar jo-Israel nochulo kuor kuom wasikgi, mana kaka nondike e Kitap Jashar. Wangʼ chiengʼ nosiko kochungʼ e polo kuom thuolo madirom odiechiengʼ achiel.
and the sun standeth still, and the moon hath stood — till the nation taketh vengeance [on] its enemies; is it not written on the Book of the Upright, 'and the sun standeth in the midst of the heavens, and hath not hasted to go in — as a perfect day?'
14 Onge odiechiengʼ machal gi ma manosebetie ma Jehova Nyasaye nowinje kwayo mar dhano. Adier, adier Jehova Nyasaye ne kedo ni jo-Israel!
And there hath not been like that day before it or after it, for Jehovah's hearkening to the voice of a man; for Jehovah is fighting for Israel.
15 Bangʼe Joshua noduogo gi jo-Israel duto e kambi man Gilgal.
And Joshua turneth back, and all Israel with him, unto the camp at Gilgal.
16 Koro ruodhi abichgo noringo kendo gipondo e rogo mantiere Makeda.
And these five kings flee, and are hidden in a cave at Makkedah,
17 Kane owach ne Joshua ni ruodhi abichgo nopondo e rogo mar Makeda,
and it is declared to Joshua, saying, 'The five kings have been found hidden in a cave at Makkedah.'
18 nowacho niya, “Dinuru dho rogono gi kidi maduongʼ kendo uket jomoko kanyo mondo orite.
And Joshua saith, 'Roll great stones unto the mouth of the cave, and appoint over it men to watch them;
19 Un to kik uchungʼ kanyo, lawuru wasiku, monjgiuru kua gichien kendo kik uwegi gichop e miechgi madongo, nikech Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osechiwogi e lwetu.”
and ye, stand not, pursue after your enemies, and ye have smitten the hindmost of them; suffer them not to go in unto their cities, for Jehovah your God hath given them into your hand.'
20 Omiyo Joshua kod jo-Israel notiekogi chuth makmana joma tin ema nodongʼ e miechgi madongo mochiel kod ohinga.
And it cometh to pass, when Joshua and the sons of Israel finish to smite them — a very great smiting, till they are consumed, and the remnant who have remained of them go in unto the fenced cities,
21 Jolweny duto noduogo ir Joshua e kambi man Makeda maonge hinyruok moro, kendo onge ngʼama nowuoyo marach kuom jo-Israel.
that all the people turn back to the camp, unto Joshua, [at] Makkedah, in peace; none moved sharply his tongue against the sons of Israel.
22 Joshua nowacho niya, “Yawuru dho rogono kendo ugol ruodhi abichgo oko mi ukelgi ira.”
And Joshua saith, 'Open ye the mouth of the cave, and bring out unto me these five kings from the cave;'
23 Omiyo negigolo ruodhi abichgo oko mi gikelogi, ne gin ruodh Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lakish kod Eglon.
and they do so, and bring out unto him these five kings from the cave: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon.
24 Kane gisekelo ruodhigi ne Joshua, noluongo jo-Israel duto kendo owachone jotend lweny mane obiro kode niya, “Biuru ka kendo unyon ngʼut ruodhigi.” Omiyo negibiro mi ginyono ngʼutgi piny.
And it cometh to pass, when they bring out these kings unto Joshua, that Joshua calleth unto every man of Israel, and saith unto the captains of the men of war, who have gone with him, 'Draw near, set your feet on the necks of these kings;' and they draw near, and set their feet on their necks.
25 Joshua nowachonegi niya, “Kik uluor, kendo kik chunyu nyosre. Beduru motegno kendo gi chir. Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye biro timo ne wasigu duto ma ubiro kedogo.”
And Joshua saith unto them, 'Fear not, nor be affrighted; be strong and courageous; for thus doth Jehovah do to all your enemies with whom ye are fighting;'
26 Bangʼe Joshua nomonjogi mi onego ruodhigo kendo olierogi e yien abich. Nowegi ka giliero e yiendego nyaka odhiambo.
and Joshua smiteth them afterwards, and putteth them to death, and hangeth them on five trees; and they are hanging on the trees till the evening.
27 Kane chiengʼ osepodho, Joshua nogolo chik mondo olor ringregi e yiende mane oliergie kendo odirgi e rogo kama negisepondoe. Negidino dho rogono gi kite madongo, ma pod ni kanyo nyaka chil kawuono.
And it cometh to pass, at the time of the going in of the sun, Joshua hath commanded, and they take them down from off the trees, and cast them unto the cave where they had been hid, and put great stones on the mouth of the cave till this very day.
28 E odiechiengno Joshua nokawo Makeda. Notieko dala maduongʼno kod ruodhe gi ligangla kendo otieko ngʼato angʼata mane ni e iye. Onge ngʼama notony kanyo. Notimone ruodh Makeda mana kaka notimone ruodh Jeriko.
And Makkedah hath Joshua captured on that day, and he smiteth it by the mouth of the sword, and its king he hath devoted, them and every person who [is] in it — he hath not left a remnant; and he doth to the king of Makkedah as he did to the king of Jericho.
29 Eka Joshua kod jo-Israel duto mane ni kode nodhi Libna koa Makeda mi omonje.
And Joshua passeth over, and all Israel with him, from Makkedah [to] Libnah, and fighteth with Libnah;
30 Jehova Nyasaye nochiwo dala maduongʼni bende kod ruodhe e lwet jo-Israel. Dala maduongʼni to gi jogo duto modak e iye Joshua nonego gi ligangla. Onge ngʼama notony kanyo. Notimone ruodhgi mana kaka notimone ruodh Jeriko.
and Jehovah giveth also it into the hand of Israel, and its king, and it smiteth it by the mouth of the sword, and every person who [is] in it — it left not in it a remnant; and it doth to its king as it did to the king of Jericho.
31 Eka Joshua kod jo-Israel duto mane ni kode nodhi Lakish koa Libna; mi gimonje.
And Joshua passeth over, and all Israel with him, from Libnah to Lachish, and encampeth against it, and fighteth against it;
32 Jehova Nyasaye nochiwo Lakish ne jo-Israel, to Joshua to ne okawe e odiechiengʼ mar ariyo. Dala maduongʼno kod ji duto modak kanyo nonego gi ligangla, mana kaka ne otimone Libna.
And Jehovah giveth Lachish into the hand of Israel, and it captureth it on the second day, and smiteth it by the mouth of the sword, and every person who [is] in it, according to all that it did to Libnah.
33 Kuom mano, Horam ruodh Gezer nobiro mondo okony Lakish, to Joshua noloye kaachiel gi jolweny mage maonge ngʼama notony.
Than hath Horam king of Gezer come up to help Lachish, and Joshua smiteth him and his people, till he hath not left to him a remnant.
34 Eka Joshua gi jo-Israel mane ni kode nodhi Eglon koa Lakish mi gimonje.
And Joshua passeth over, and all Israel with him, from Lachish to Eglon, and they encamp against it, and fight against it,
35 Ne gikawe odiechiengʼ nogono mi ginego ji duto kendo giketho gimoro amora mangima manie iye, mana kaka negisetimone Lakish.
and capture it on that day, and smite it by the mouth of the sword, and every person who [is] in it on that day he hath devoted, according to all that he did to Lachish.
36 Eka Joshua gi jo-Israel mane ni kode nodhi Hebron koa Eglon, mi gimonje.
And Joshua goeth up, and all Israel with him, from Eglon to Hebron, and they fight against it,
37 Negikawo dala maduongʼno mi ginego ruodhe kod gimoro amora mangima mane ni kuno kaachiel gi mago mane nitie e mier matindo mokiewo kode. Onge ngʼama notony, mana kaka ne otimone Eglon.
and capture it, and smite it by the mouth of the sword, and its king, and all its cities, and every person who [is] in it — he hath not left a remnant — according to all that he did to Eglon — and doth devote it, and every person who [is] in it.
38 Eka Joshua gi jo-Israel mane ni kode noduogo mi omonjo Debir.
And Joshua turneth back, and all Israel with him, to Debir, and fighteth against it,
39 Negikawo dala maduongʼno, ruodhe kod mier matindo mokiewo kode mi ginegogi. Ji duto mane odak kanyo negitieko chuth kendo onge joma notony. Negitimone Debir kod ruodhe mana kaka negitimone Libna gi ruodhe, to gi Hebron.
and captureth it, and its king, and all its cities, and they smite them by the mouth of the sword, and devote every person who [is] in it — he hath not left a remnant; as he did to Hebron so he did to Debir, and to its king, and as he did to Libnah, and to its king.
40 Omiyo Joshua nokawo gwengʼno duto kaachiel gi piny manie got ma en Negev, e tiend gode ma yo podho chiengʼ, to gi kuonde mag pewe kaachiel gi ruodhigi duto. Onge joma notony. Notieko jogo duto mangima, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, nosechiko.
And Joshua smiteth all the land of the hill-country, and of the south, and of the low-country, and of the springs, and all their kings — he hath not left a remnant, and all that doth breathe he hath devoted, as Jehovah, God of Israel, commanded.
41 Joshua nokawogi koa Kadesh Barnea nyaka Gaza kendo koa e gwenge duto ma Goshen nyaka Gibeon.
And Joshua smiteth them from Kadesh-Barnea, even unto Gaza, and all the land of Goshen, even unto Gibeon;
42 Joshua nomako ruodhigo duto kaachiel gi pinjegi e lweny achielno nimar Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, nokedo ni joge.
and all these kings and their land hath Joshua captured [at] one time, for Jehovah, God of Israel, is fighting for Israel.
43 Bangʼe Joshua noduogo gi jo-Israel duto e kambi man Gilgal.
and Joshua turneth back, and all Israel with him, unto the camp at Gilgal.
