Joshua 11
1 Now when Jabin king of Hazor heard about these things, he sent word to Jobab king of Madon; to the kings of Shimron and Achshaph;
Awo Yabini kabaka w’e Kazoli bwe yakimanya, n’atumya Yobabu kabaka w’e Madoni n’eri kabaka w’e Simuloni n’eri kabaka w’e Akusafu,
2 to the kings of the north in the mountains, in the Arabah south of Chinnereth, in the foothills, and in Naphoth-dor to the west;
ne bakabaka abaali mu bukiikakkono mu nsi ey’ensozi, ne mu Alaba mu bukiikaddyo e Kinnerosi, ne mu nsenyi, ne mu nsozi ez’e Doli ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba.
3 to the Canaanites in the east and west; to the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, and Jebusites in the hill country; and to the Hivites at the foot of Hermon in the land of Mizpah.
N’atumya Abakanani ebuvanjuba n’ebugwanjuba, n’Abamoli, n’Abakiiti n’Abaperezi, n’Abayebusi mu nsi ey’ensozi, n’Abakiivi wansi wa Kerumooni mu nsi ey’e Mizupa.
4 So these kings came out with all their armies, a multitude as numerous as the sand on the seashore, along with a great number of horses and chariots.
Ne bajja, n’amaggye gaabwe gonna, nga bangi nnyo nga bali ng’omusenyu gw’ennyanja, era ne bajja n’embalaasi nnyingi nnyo n’amagaali mangi nnyo.
5 All these kings joined forces and encamped at the waters of Merom to fight against Israel.
Awo bakabaka bano bonna ne beegatta ne bakuba olusiisira olwa awamu ku nzizi ez’e Meromu, balwanyise Isirayiri.
6 Then the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for by this time tomorrow I will deliver all of them slain before Israel. You are to hamstring their horses and burn up their chariots.”
Awo Mukama n’agamba Yoswa nti, “Tobatya kubanga obudde nga bwe buti enkya nzija kubawaayo bonna eri Isirayiri, bafumitibwe, battibwe, embalaasi muziteme enteega n’amagaali gookebwe.”
7 So by the waters of Merom, Joshua and his whole army came upon them suddenly and attacked them,
Awo Yoswa n’abalwanyi be bonna ne balumba abalabe ku nzizi ez’e Meromu.
8 and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who struck them down and pursued them all the way to Greater Sidon and Misrephoth-maim, and eastward as far as the Valley of Mizpeh. They struck them down, leaving no survivors.
Mukama n’abawaayo mu mukono gwa Isirayiri ne babawangula ne babagobera ddala, okubatuusa mu Sidoni ekinene ne ku Misurefosumayimu, ne ku kiwonvu kye Mizupa ebuvanjuba, ne babazikiririza ddala obutalekaawo n’omu.
9 Joshua treated them as the LORD had told him; he hamstrung their horses and burned up their chariots.
Yoswa n’abakolako nga Mukama bwe yamulagira, embalaasi zaabwe nazitema enteega, n’amagaali gaabwe n’agookya omuliro.
10 At that time Joshua turned back and captured Hazor and put its king to the sword, because Hazor was formerly the head of all these kingdoms.
Mu kiseera ekyo Yoswa n’addako emabega n’awamba Kazoli, kabaka waakyo n’amutta n’ekitala kubanga emabegako Kazoli kye kyali ekitebe ky’obwakabaka obwo bwonna.
11 The Israelites put everyone in Hazor to the sword, devoting them to destruction. Nothing that breathed remained, and Joshua burned down Hazor itself.
Era ne batta buli muntu yenna eyakirimu ne watasigalawo n’omu ne Kazoli n’akyokya omuliro.
12 Joshua captured all these kings and their cities and put them to the sword. He devoted them to destruction, as Moses the LORD’s servant had commanded.
Yoswa n’awamba ebibuga ebyo byonna ne bakabaka baabyo, n’abatta n’ebitala n’abazikiririza ddala nga Musa omuweereza wa Mukama bwe yalagira.
13 Yet Israel did not burn any of the cities built on their mounds, except Hazor, which Joshua burned.
Okuggyako Kazoli, ebibuga ebirala byonna ebyali bizimbiddwa ku bifunvu, Yoswa teyabyokya.
14 The Israelites took for themselves all the plunder and livestock of these cities, but they put all the people to the sword until they had completely destroyed them, not sparing anyone who breathed.
Abaana ba Isirayiri ne beetwalira omunyago gwonna ogw’ebibuga bino n’ente, era ne batta buli muntu yenna ne babazikiriza awatali kusigala n’omu assa omukka.
15 As the LORD had commanded His servant Moses, so Moses commanded Joshua. That is what Joshua did, leaving nothing undone of all that the LORD had commanded Moses.
Nga Mukama bwe yalagira omuddu we Musa, bw’atyo Musa bwe yalagira Yoswa era ne Yoswa bwe yakola; talina kye yaleka takoze ku byonna Mukama bye yalagira Musa.
16 So Joshua took this entire region: the hill country, all the Negev, all the land of Goshen, the western foothills, the Arabah, and the mountains of Israel and their foothills,
Bw’atyo Yoswa n’awangula ensi yonna, n’ensi ey’ensozi n’ey’obugwanjuba yonna, n’ekitundu kya Goseni kyonna, ensi ey’ensenyi ne Alaba, n’ensi yaayo yonna ey’ensenyi.
17 from Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir, as far as Baal-gad in the Valley of Lebanon at the foot of Mount Hermon. He captured all their kings and struck them down, putting them to death.
Okuva ku lusozi Kalaki, okulinnya okutuuka e Seyiri, n’okutuuka ku Baalugadi mu kiwonvu kya Lebanooni ekiri wansi w’olusozi Kerumooni ne bakabaka baayo bonna n’abawamba, n’abafumita, n’abatta.
18 Joshua waged war against all these kings for a long period of time.
Yoswa n’alumba n’alwana ne bakabaka abo bonna okumala ebbanga.
19 No city made peace with the Israelites except the Hivites living in Gibeon; all others were taken in battle.
Tewali kibuga kyakola ndagaano ya mirembe n’abaana ba Isirayiri okuggyako Abakiivi abaali mu Gibyoni; byonna baabilwanyisa ne babiwangula,
20 For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts to engage Israel in battle, so that they would be set apart for destruction and would receive no mercy, being annihilated as the LORD had commanded Moses.
kubanga Mukama yennyini ye yakakanyaza emitima gyabwe balwane ne Isirayiri, alyoke abazikiririze ddala, abamalirewo ddala awatali kubakwatirwa kisa, nga Mukama bwe yalagira Musa.
21 At that time Joshua proceeded to eliminate the Anakim from the hill country of Hebron, Debir, and Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah and of Israel. Joshua devoted them to destruction, along with their cities.
Mu kiseera ekyo Yoswa n’agenda n’azikiriza n’amalawo Abanaki mu nsi ey’ensozi, mu Kebbulooni, ne mu Debiri, ne mu Anabu, ne mu nsi yonna ey’ensozi eya Yuda, ne mu nsi yonna ey’ensozi eya Isirayiri. Yoswa n’abazikiririza ddala, bonna n’ebibuga byabwe.
22 No Anakim were left in the land of the Israelites; only in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod did any survive.
Tewali Banaki baasigalawo mu nsi y’abaana ba Isirayiri, okuggyako mu Gaza, ne mu Gaasi, ne mu Asudodi, mwe mwasigalako abamu.
23 So Joshua took the entire land, in keeping with all that the LORD had spoken to Moses. And Joshua gave it as an inheritance to Israel according to the allotments to their tribes. Then the land had rest from war.
Yoswa bw’atyo bwe yatwala ensi yonna nga Mukama bwe yalagira Musa, n’agiwa abaana ba Isirayiri okuba omugabo nga bwe yayawulibwa mu bika byabwe. Olwo ensi n’ewummula entalo.
