Joshua 8
1 Then the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid or discouraged. Take the whole army with you, and go up and attack Ai. See, I have delivered into your hand the king of Ai, his people, his city, and his land.
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.
2 And you shall do to Ai and its king as you did to Jericho and its king, except that you may carry off their plunder and livestock for yourselves. Set up an ambush behind the city.”
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.
3 So Joshua and the whole army set out to attack Ai. Joshua chose 30,000 mighty men of valor and sent them out at night
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.
4 with these orders: “Pay attention. You are to lie in ambush behind the city, not too far from it. All of you must be ready.
E da ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia A: iai diasu na: iyado bega: fonobahadi gadenenewane wamoaligima. Ilima doagala: musa: momagema.
5 Then I and all the troops with me will advance on the city. When they come out against us as they did the first time, we will flee from them.
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.
6 They will pursue us until we have drawn them away from the city, for they will say, ‘The Israelites are running away from us as they did before.’ So as we flee from them,
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.
7 you are to rise from the ambush and seize the city, for the LORD your God will deliver it into your hand.
Amasea, dilia da dilia wamoaligi sogebi fisili, moilai bai bagadega doagala: le lamu. Hina Gode da amo dilima imunu.
8 And when you have taken the city, set it on fire. Do as the LORD has commanded! See, I have given you orders.”
Dilia moilai bai bagade huluane lai dagosea, amo Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele, laluga gobesima. Na da dilima sia: i dagoi.”
9 So Joshua sent them out, and they went to the place of ambush and lay in wait between Bethel and Ai, to the west of Ai. But Joshua spent that night among the people.
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.
10 Joshua got up early the next morning and mobilized his men, and he and the elders of Israel marched before them up to Ai.
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.
11 Then all the troops who were with him marched up and approached the city. They arrived in front of Ai and camped to the north of it, with the valley between them and the city.
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.
12 Now Joshua had taken about five thousand men and set up an ambush between Bethel and Ai, to the west of the city.
Yosiua da5000 dunu agoane lale, ilia da A: iai ea eso dabe la: idi (A: iai amola Bedele dogoa) amoga wamoaligi.
13 So the forces were stationed with the main camp to the north of the city and the rear guard to the west of the city. And that night Joshua went into the valley.
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.
14 When the king of Ai saw the Israelites, he hurried out early in the morning with the men of the city to engage them in battle at an appointed place overlooking the Arabah. But he did not know that an ambush had been set up against him behind the city.
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.
15 Joshua and all Israel let themselves be beaten back before them, and they fled toward the wilderness.
Yosiua amola ea dunu da ogogole A: iai dunuma hobeamusa: , hafoga: i sogega hehenai.
16 Then all the men of Ai were summoned to pursue them, and they followed Joshua and were drawn away from the city.
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.
17 Not a man was left in Ai or Bethel who did not go out after Israel, leaving the city wide open while they pursued Israel.
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.
18 Then the LORD said to Joshua, “Hold out your battle lance toward Ai, for into your hand I will deliver the city.” So Joshua held out his battle lance toward Ai,
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.
19 and as soon as he did so, the men in ambush rose quickly from their position. They rushed forward, entered the city, captured it, and immediately set it on fire.
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.
20 When the men of Ai turned and looked back, the smoke of the city was rising into the sky. They could not escape in any direction, and the troops who had fled to the wilderness now became the pursuers.
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.
21 When Joshua and all Israel saw that the men in ambush had captured the city and that smoke was rising from it, they turned around and struck down the men of Ai.
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.
22 Meanwhile, those in the ambush came out of the city against them, and the men of Ai were trapped between the Israelite forces on both sides. So Israel struck them down until no survivor or fugitive remained.
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.
23 But they took the king of Ai alive and brought him to Joshua.
Be A: iai hina bagade da hame bogoi. Isala: ili dunu da amo hina bagade lale, afugili, Yosiuama hiouginana asi.
24 When Israel had finished killing all the men of Ai who had pursued them into the field and wilderness, and when every last one of them had fallen by the sword, all the Israelites returned to Ai and put it to the sword as well.
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.
25 A total of twelve thousand men and women fell that day—all the people of Ai.
26 Joshua did not draw back the hand that held his battle lance until he had devoted to destruction all who lived in Ai.
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.
27 Israel took for themselves only the cattle and plunder of that city, as the LORD had commanded Joshua.
Hina Gode da Yosiuama sia: i defele, Isala: ili dunu ilisu da ohe fi amola liligi amo moilai bai bagade ganodini galu gagulaligimusa: lai.
28 So Joshua burned Ai and made it a permanent heap of ruins, a desolation to this day.
Yosiua da A: iai moilai bai bagade laluga gobesi amola wadela: lesi dagoi. Wali eso, amo moilai bai bagade da amaiwane diala.
29 He hung the king of Ai on a tree until evening, and at sunset Joshua commanded that they take down the body from the tree and throw it down at the entrance of the city gate. And over it they raised a large pile of rocks, which remains to this day.
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.
30 At that time Joshua built an altar on Mount Ebal to the LORD, the God of Israel,
Amasea, Yosiua da Iba: le Goumia, Isala: ili fi ilia Hina Godema oloda hamoi.
31 just as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded the Israelites. He built it according to what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses: “an altar of uncut stones on which no iron tool has been used.” And on it they offered burnt offerings to the LORD, and they sacrificed peace offerings.
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.
32 And there in the presence of the Israelites, Joshua inscribed on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he had written.
Amogawi, Isala: ili dunu huluane ba: lalu, Yosiua da sema amo Mousese da dedei, amo igi gasui enoga bu dedei.
33 All Israel, foreigners and citizens alike, with their elders, officers, and judges, stood on both sides of the ark of the covenant of the LORD facing the Levitical priests who carried it. Half of the people stood in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded earlier, to bless the people of Israel.
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.
34 Afterward, Joshua read aloud all the words of the law—the blessings and the curses—according to all that is written in the Book of the Law.
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.
35 There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded that Joshua failed to read before the whole assembly of Israel, including the women, the little ones, and the foreigners who lived among them.
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.
