Joshua 6
1 (Now Jericho was all shut up because of the children of Israel: there was no going out or coming in.)
Ie amy zao, nigabeñe fatratse t’Ieriko ty amo ana’ Israeleo: leo raike tsy niakatse, ndra raike tsy nimoak’ ao—
2 And the Lord said to Joshua, See, I have given into your hands Jericho with its king and all its men of war.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Iehosoa: Inao te natoloko am-pità’o t’Ieriko, naho i mpanjaka’ey vaho o fanalolahio.
3 Now let all your fighting-men make a circle round the town, going all round it once. Do this for six days.
Hiarikatoha’ areo i rovay; ze hene lahindefoñe ty hiariari’ i rovay indraike. Andro eneñe ty hanoa’o Izay.
4 And let seven priests go before the ark with seven loud-sounding horns in their hands: on the seventh day you are to go round the town seven times, the priests blowing their horns.
Hitintiñe tsifan’ añondrilahy fito ty mpisoroñe fito aolo’ i vatam-pañinay; ie ami’ty andro faha-fito le hiaria’ areo im-pito i rovay vaho hampipopò o tsifan’ añondrio i mpisoroñe rey.
5 And at the sound of a long note on the horns, let all the people give a loud cry; and the wall of the town will come down flat, and all the people are to go straight forward.
Ie amy zao, naho tiofe’ iareo ela i tsifan’ añondry rey, naho janji’ areo ty feo’ i antsivay, le sindre hampipoñake ty pazake ondatio naho hikoromake ho pisake ty kijoli’ i rovay vaho songa hiranga an-kahiti’e miaolo mb’eo t’indaty.
6 Then Joshua, the son of Nun, sent for the priests and said to them, Take up the ark of the agreement, and let seven priests take seven horns in their hands and go before the ark of the Lord.
Kinanji’ Iehosoa ana’ i None o mpisoroñeo, le hoe ty asa’e tama’e: Ongaho i vatam-pañinay vaho mpisoroñe fito ty hinday tsifan’ añondrilahy fito aolo’ i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày.
7 And he said to the people, Go forward, circling the town, and let the armed men go before the ark of the Lord.
Le hoe ty asa’e am’ ondatio: Mionjona mb’eo le arikatoho i rovay vaho ampiaolò o lahin-defoñeo i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày.
8 So after Joshua had said this to the people, the seven priests with their seven horns went forward before the Lord, blowing on their horns: and the ark of the Lord's agreement went after them.
Ie amy zao: nisaontsy am’ ondatio t’Iehosoa, le nionjom-beo i mpisoroñe fito nitañe tsifan’ añondrilahy fito añatrefa’ Iehovà rey, le nitiofe’ iereo o tsifao vaho nanonjohy iareo i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày.
9 And the armed men went before the priests who were blowing the horns, and the mass of the people went after the ark, blowing their horns.
Niaolo o mpisoroñe nitiok’ antsivao amy zao ondaty nitam-pialiañeo, le nanonjohy i vatam-pañinay o mpivolio; vaho nitolom-pipopò avao o tsifao.
10 And to the people Joshua gave an order, saying, You will give no cry, and make no sound, and let no word go out of your mouth till the day when I say, Give a loud cry; then give a loud cry.
Linili’ Iehosoa amy zao ondatio ami’ty hoe: Ko mikoràke, ee te tsy ho janjiñeñe hey ty fiarañanaña’ areo, vaho tsy hiakatse am-palie’ areo ndra saontsy raike ampara’ ty andro koiheko te hipazake; le hene hipozak’ amy zay.
11 So he made the ark of the Lord go all round the town once: then they went back to the tents for the night.
Aa le nampiariarie’e i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày i rovay, indraike t’ie niarikatoheñe naho nibalik’ an-tobe iareo vaho nialeñe an-tobe ao.
12 And early in the morning Joshua got up, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord.
Nitroatse marain-tsi-kiake t’Iehosoa vaho rinambe’ o mpisoroñeo i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày.
13 And the seven priests with their seven horns went on before the ark of the Lord, blowing their horns: the armed men went before them, and the mass of the people went after the ark of the Lord, blowing their horns.
Aa le nainai’e nimb’eo nampipopò o tsifao i mpisoroñe fito ninday tsifan’ añondry fito añatrefa’ i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày rey; niaolo iareo o lahindefoñeo vaho nanonjohy i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày o nivolio, nainai’e am-pipopòeñe o antsivao.
14 The second day they went all round the town once, and then went back to their tents: and so they did for six days.
Ie amy andro faharoey le nañariari’ i rovay indraike iereo vaho nimpoly an-tobe ao; nanoe’ iereo andro eneñe izay.
15 Then on the seventh day they got up early, at the dawn of the day, and went round the town in the same way, but that day they went round it seven times.
Ie amy andro fahafitoy le nitroatse te manjirik’ andro naho narierie’ iareo i rovay vaho nitoloña’ iareo im-pito; amy àndroy avao ty nañariaria’ iareo i rovay im-pito.
16 And the seventh time, at the sound of the priests' horns, Joshua said to the people, Now give a loud cry; for the Lord has given you the town.
Aa ie amy faha-fitoy naho nampipopò i tsifa rey o mpisoroñeo le nanao ty hoe am’ ondatio t’Iehosoa: Mipoñafa, fa natolo’ Iehovà ama’ areo i rovay.
17 And the town will be put to the curse, and everything in it will be given to the Lord: only Rahab, the loose woman, and all who are in the house with her, will be kept safe, because she kept secret the men we sent.
Hatokañe amy Iehovà i rovay, ie naho ze kolotoin-draha ama’e ao; i Rakabe karapilo avao ty ho veloñe naho ze mitraok’ ama’e añ’anjomba’e ao amy te naeta’e o ìrake nampihitrifen-tikañeo.
18 And as for you, keep yourselves from the cursed thing, for fear that you may get a desire for it and take some of it for yourselves, and so be the cause of a curse and great trouble on the tents of Israel.
Ie amy zao ifoneño o raha navìkeo tsy mone mamà-batañe, fa naho rambese’ areo ho fanañañe o raha navikeo, le hafà’ areo ho am-poheke ka ty tobe’ Israele.
19 But all the silver and gold and the vessels of brass and iron are holy to the Lord: they are to come into the store-house of the Lord.
Kila miavake am’ Iehovà i volafotiy, i volamenay vaho o fanake torisìke naho viñeo; ie hazilik’ an-driha’ Iehovà ao.
20 So the people gave a loud cry, and the horns were sounded; and on hearing the horns the people gave a loud cry, and the wall came down flat, so that the people went up into the town, every man going straight before him, and they took the town.
Aa le nampipoñake ty koike ondatio, nitiofeñe o tsifao. Naho nahajanjiñe ty feo’ o tsifao ondatio, le pinaza’ ondatio ty koke, naho nikoromake ho pisake i kijoliy vaho nitoañe mb’ an-drova ao ondatio, sindre gaon-dahy niaolo mb’eo nitavañe i rovay.
21 And they put everything in the town to the curse; men and women, young and old, ox and sheep and ass, they put to death without mercy.
Ie fonga nandrotsake an-dela-pibara ze tan-drova ao, ndra lahilahy ndra rakemba, o tora’eo naho o beio, o añombeo naho o añondrio vaho o borìkeo.
22 Then Joshua said to the two men who had been sent to make a search through the land, Go into the house of the loose woman, and get her out, and all who are with her, as you gave her your oath.
Le hoe t’Iehosoa am’ indaty roe nipiapia amy taney rey: Akia mb’ añ’ anjomba’ i karapiloy vaho akaro i rakembay naho ze hene aze ty amy nifantà’ areo.
23 So the searchers went in and got out Rahab and her father and mother and her brothers and all she had, and they got out all her family; and they took them outside the tents of Israel.
Aa le nimoak’ ao i ajalahy nitampoñe rey naho nakare’ iereo t’i Rakabe naho ty rae’e naho i rene’e naho o rahalahi’eo naho ze vara’e iaby; nakare’ iareo ze hene longo’e vaho nampitobèñe alafe’ i tobe’ Israeley.
24 Then, after burning up the town and everything in it, they put the silver and gold and the vessels of brass and iron into the store-house of the Lord's house.
Finorototo’ iereo afo i rovay naho ze he’e ama’e ao; naho tsy ty volafoty, ty volamena naho o fanake torisìke naho viñeo avao ze napò’ iareo am-panontoñam-baran-kiboho’ Iehovà ao.
25 But Joshua kept Rahab, the loose woman, and her father's family and all she had, from death, and so she got a living-place among the children of Israel to this day; because she kept safe the men whom Joshua had sent to make a search through the land.
Le rinomba’ Iehosoa veloñe t’i Rakabe karapilo naho o añ’anjomban-drae’eo vaho o aze iabio; ie mimoneñe añivo’ Israele ao ampara’ te henane; ami’te naeta’e i nampihitrife’ Iehosoa hanampoñe Ieriko rey.
26 Then Joshua gave the people orders with an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed before the Lord who puts his hand to the building up of this town: with the loss of his first son will he put the first stone of it in place, and with the loss of his youngest son he will put up its doors.
Aa le nampifantà’ Iehosoa ondatio henane zay ami’ty hoe: Voa-fàtse añatrefa’ Iehovà t’indaty miongake hañamboatse ty rova Ieriko toy; ami’ty fihomahan-tañoloñoloña’e ty hampipoha’e o mananta’eo vaho ami’ty fivetraha’ i tsitso’ey ty hampijadoña’e o lalam-bei’eo.
27 So the Lord was with Joshua; and news of him went through all the land.
Aa le nitahie’ Iehovà t’Iehosoa; vaho nanitsike i taney ty enge’e.
