< Joshua 10 >

1 And when Adoni-bezec king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had taken Gai, and had destroyed it, as he did to Jericho and its king, even so they did to Gai and its king, and that the inhabitants of Gabaon had gone over to Joshua and Israel;
Nzokande, Adoni-Tsedeki, mokonzi ya Yelusalemi, ayokaki ete Jozue abotolaki Ayi mpe abebisaki yango nyonso; asalaki Ayi mpe mokonzi na yango ndenge kaka asalaki Jeriko mpe mokonzi na yango. Ayokaki lisusu ete bavandi ya Gabaoni basalaki boyokani ya kimia elongo na Isalaele mpe bakomaki kovanda kati na bango.
2 then they were greatly terrified by them, for [the king] knew that Gabaon [was] a great city, as one of the chief cities, and all its men [were] mighty.
Boye, sango oyo epesaki somo na mokonzi ya Yelusalemi elongo na bato na ye, pamba te Gabaoni ezalaki engumba moko ya monene lokola bingumba ya bakonzi; ezalaki monene koleka ata Ayi, mpe mibali na yango nyonso bazalaki bilombe ya bitumba.
3 So Adoni-bezec king of Jerusalem sent to Elam king of Hebron, and to Phidon king of Jerimuth, and to Jephtha king of Lachis, and to Dabin king of Odollam, saying,
Adoni-Tsedeki, mokonzi ya Yelusalemi, atindaki maloba epai ya Oami, mokonzi ya Ebron; epai ya Pireami, mokonzi ya Yarimuti; epai ya Yafia, mokonzi ya Lakishi; mpe epai ya Debiri, mokonzi ya Egiloni.
4 Come up hither to me, and help me, and let us take Gabaon; for the Gabaonites have gone over to Joshua and to the children of Israel.
Alobaki: « Boya epai na ngai mpe bosunga ngai mpo ete tobundisa Gabaoni, pamba te asali boyokani ya kimia elongo na Jozue mpe bana ya Isalaele. »
5 And the five kings of the Jebusites went up, the king of Jerusalem, and the king of Chebron, and the king of Jerimuth, and the king of Lachis, and the king of Odollam, they and all their people; and encamped around Gabaon, and besieged it.
Boye bakonzi mitano ya bato ya Amori: mokonzi ya Yelusalemi, ya Ebron, ya Yarimuti, ya Lakishi mpe ya Egiloni, bakendeki elongo na mampinga na bango nyonso mpo na kozingela Gabaoni mpe kobundisa yango.
6 And the inhabitants of Gabaon sent to Joshua into the camp to Galgala, saying, Slack not thy hands from thy servants: come up quickly to us, and help us, and rescue us; for all the kings of the Amorites who dwell in the hill country are gathered together against us.
Bato ya Gabaoni batindaki maloba epai ya Jozue kati na molako ya Giligali: « Koboya te kosunga basali na yo, yaka noki epai na biso mpe bikisa biso, pamba te bakonzi nyonso ya bato ya Amori, oyo bavandaka na ngomba, basaleli biso likita. »
7 And Joshua went up from Galgala, he and all the people of war with him, every one mighty in strength.
Jozue amataki wuta na Giligali elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso mpe bilombe nyonso ya bitumba.
8 And the Lord said to Joshua, Fear them not, for I have delivered them into thy hands; there shall not one of them be left before you.
Yawe alobaki na Jozue: « Kobanga bango te, pamba te nakabi bango na maboko na yo; moko te akokoka kotelema liboso na yo. »
9 And when Joshua came suddenly upon them, he [had] advanced all the night out of Galgala.
Sima na kotambola butu mobimba wuta na Giligali, Jozue abimelaki bango na pwasa.
10 And the Lord struck them with terror before the children of Israel; and the Lord destroyed them with a great slaughter at Gabaon; and they pursued them by the way of the going up of Oronin, and they smote them to Azeca and to Makeda.
Yawe akimisaki bango liboso ya Isalaele, mpe Isalaele akweyisaki bango pene ya Gabaoni. Bana ya Isalaele balandaki bango na nzela oyo ekenda kino na Beti-Oroni mpe babomaki bango kino na Azeka mpe Makeda.
11 And when they fled from the face of the children of Israel at the descent of Oronin, then the Lord cast upon them hailstones from heaven to Azeca; and they were more that died by the hailstones, than those whom the children of Israel slew with the sword in the battle.
Wana bazalaki kokima liboso ya Isalaele mpe kokita na Beti-Oroni, Yawe akitiselaki bango mabanga minene wuta na likolo kino na Azeka, mpe bakufaki. Bato oyo bakufaki na mabanga ya moto bazalaki motango ebele koleka ata bato oyo bana ya Isalaele babomaki na mopanga.
12 Then Joshua spoke to the Lord, in the day in which the Lord delivered the Amorite into the power of Israel, when he destroyed them in Gabaon, and they were destroyed from before the children of Israel: and Joshua said, Let the sun stand over against Gabaon, and the moon over against the valley of Aelon.
Na mokolo oyo Yawe akabaki bato ya Amori na maboko ya bana ya Isalaele, Jozue alobaki na Yawe na miso ya Isalaele: « Moyi, telema na Gabaoni! Sanza, telema na lubwaku ya Ayaloni! »
13 And the sun and the moon stood still, until God executed vengeance on their enemies; and the sun stood still in the midst of heaven; it did not proceed to set till the end of one day.
Boye moyi etelemaki, mpe sanza eninganaki te kino tango ekolo ya Isalaele alongaki banguna na ye kolanda ndenge ekomama kati na buku ya Moto ya Sembo. Moyi etelemaki na kati-kati ya mapata mpe elalaki noki te, pene mokolo mobimba.
14 And there was not such a day either before or after, so that God should hearken to a man, because the Lord fought on the side of Israel.
Mokolo ya boye etikala nanu kozala te, ezala na tango ya kala to na tango oyo ekoya, mokolo oyo Yawe atosi mongongo ya moto. Solo Yawe azalaki kobundela Isalaele.
Jozue elongo na Isalaele mobimba bazongaki na molako na Giligali.
16 And these five kings fled, and hid themselves in a cave that is in Makeda.
Nzokande, bakonzi wana mitano bakimaki mpe bakendeki kobombama kati na lidusu ya mabanga, na Makeda.
17 And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings have been found hid in the cave that is in Makeda.
Tango bayebisaki Jozue ete bamoni bakonzi yango mitano babombami kati na lidusu ya mabanga, na Makeda,
18 And Joshua said, Roll stones to the mouth of the cave, and set men to watch over them.
Jozue alobaki: « Bopusa mabanga minene na ekotelo ya lidusu ya mabanga mpe botia bato pene na yango mpo na kobatela yango.
19 But do not ye stand, but pursue after your enemies, and attack the rear of them, and do not suffer them to enter into their cities; for the Lord our God has delivered them into our hands.
Kasi bosuka wana te. Bolanda banguna na bino mpe bokanga bango nzela mpo ete bakota na bingumba na bango te, pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akabi bango na maboko na bino. »
20 And it came to pass when Joshua and all Israel ceased destroying them utterly with a very great slaughter, that they that escaped took refuge in the strong cities.
Tango Jozue mpe bana ya Isalaele balongaki bango mpe basilisaki koboma bango, ndambo ya bato oyo babikaki bakimaki mpe bakotaki na bingumba oyo etongama makasi.
21 And all the people returned safe to Joshua to Makeda; and no one of the children of Israel murmured with his tongue.
Bato nyonso ya Isalaele bazongaki na kimia na molako pene ya Jozue, na Makeda. Moko te alobaki lisusu mabe mpo na bana ya Isalaele.
22 And Joshua said, Open the cave, and bring out these five kings out of the cave.
Sima, Jozue alobaki: « Bofungola ekotelo ya lidusu ya mabanga mpe bobimisa bakonzi wana mitano. »
23 And they brought out the five kings out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, and the king of Chebron, and the king of Jerimuth, and the king of Lachis, and the king of Odollam.
Boye babimisaki bakonzi wana mitano na libanda ya lidusu ya mabanga: mokonzi ya Yelusalemi, ya Ebron, ya Yarimuti, ya Lakishi mpe ya Egiloni.
24 And when they brought them out to Joshua, then Joshua called together all Israel, and the chiefs of the army that went with him, saying to them, Come forward and set your feet on their necks; and they came and set their feet on their necks.
Tango bamemaki bakonzi yango epai ya Jozue, abengisaki mibali nyonso ya Isalaele mpe alobaki na bakonzi ya basoda oyo bazalaki na ye elongo: « Bopusana mpe botia makolo na bino na bakingo ya bakonzi oyo. » Bakonzi ya basoda bapusanaki mpe batiaki makolo na bango na bakingo ya bakonzi yango.
25 And Joshua said to them, Do not fear them, neither be cowardly; be courageous and strong, for thus the Lord will do to all your enemies, against whom ye fight.
Jozue alobaki na bango: « Bobanga te mpe bolemba nzoto te. Bozala makasi mpe boyika mpiko, pamba te ezali boye nde Yawe akosala banguna nyonso oyo bokobundisa. »
26 And Joshua slew them, and hanged them on five trees; and they hung upon the trees until the evening.
Sima na yango, Jozue abomaki bakonzi yango mpe adiembikaki bango na banzete mitano. Bibembe na bango etikalaki kodiembela na banzete yango kino na pokwa.
27 And it came to pass toward the setting of the sun, Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, and cast them into the cave into which they [had] fled for refuge, and rolled stones to the cave, [which remain] till this day.
Tango moyi elalaki, Jozue apesaki mitindo ete bakitisa bibembe yango wuta na banzete mpe babwaka yango kati na lidusu ya mabanga epai wapi babombamaki. Batiaki mabanga minene na ekotelo ya lidusu ya mabanga. Mabanga yango ezali wana kino na mokolo ya lelo.
28 And they took Makeda on that day, and slew the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and they utterly destroyed every living thing that was in it; and there was none left in it that was preserved and had escaped; and they did to the king of Makeda, as they did to the king of Jericho.
Kaka na mokolo yango, Jozue abotolaki engumba Makeda. Abomaki na mopanga mokonzi na yango mpe moto nyonso oyo akutaki kuna mpe atikaki ata moto moko te na bomoi. Asalaki mokonzi ya Makeda ndenge kaka asalaki mokonzi ya Jeriko.
29 And Joshua and all Israel with him departed out of Makeda to Lebna, and besieged Lebna.
Jozue elongo na bana nyonso ya Isalaele balongwaki na Makeda, bakendeki kino na engumba Libina mpe babundisaki yango.
30 And the Lord delivered it into the hands of Israel: and they took it, and its king, and slew the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and every thing breathing in it; and there was not left in it any that survived and escaped; and they did to its king, as they did to the king of Jericho.
Yawe akabaki lisusu engumba mpe mokonzi na yango na maboko ya Isalaele. Jozue abomaki na mopanga, bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kuna; mpe atikaki ata moto moko te na bomoi. Asalaki mokonzi na yango ndenge asalaki mokonzi ya Jeriko.
31 And Joshua and all Israel with him departed from Lebna to Lachis, and he encamped about it, and besieged it.
Jozue elongo na bana nyonso ya Isalaele balongwaki na Libina mpe bakendeki kino na Lakishi. Bazingelaki yango mpe babundisaki yango.
32 And the Lord delivered Lachis into the hands of Israel; and they took it on the second day, and they put the inhabitants to death with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed it, as they had done to Lebna.
Yawe akabaki engumba Lakishi na maboko ya Isalaele, mpe Jozue abotolaki yango, mokolo oyo elandaki. Jozue abomaki na mopanga, bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kuna ndenge kaka asalaki engumba Libina.
33 Then Elam the king of Gazer went up to help Lachis; and Joshua smote him and his people with the edge of the sword, until there was not left to him one that was preserved and escaped.
Boye, Orami, mokonzi ya Gezeri, amataki mpo na kosunga Lakishi; kasi Jozue abomaki ye na mopanga elongo na bato na ye, atikaki ata moto moko te na bomoi.
34 And Joshua and all Israel with him departed from Lachis to Odollam, and he besieged it and took it.
Jozue elongo na bana nyonso ya Isalaele balongwaki na Lakishi mpe bakendeki kino na engumba Egiloni; bazingelaki yango mpe babundisaki yango.
35 And the Lord delivered it into the hand of Israel; and he took it on that day, and slew the inhabitants with the edge of the sword, and slew every thing breathing in it, as they did to Lachis.
Babotolaki yango kaka na mokolo wana mpe babomaki na mopanga bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kuna; babebisaki bango mokolo wana, ndenge kaka basalaki na Lakishi.
36 And Joshua and all Israel with him departed to Chebron, and encamped about it.
Jozue mpe Isalaele mobimba balongwaki na Egiloni, bamataki kino na Ebron mpe babundisaki yango.
37 And he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the living creatures that were in it; there was no one preserved: they destroyed it and all things in it, as they did to Odollam.
Babotolaki engumba yango, babomaki na mopanga bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kuna elongo na mokonzi na yango. Bazwaki mpe bamboka na yango ya mike-mike mpe babomaki na mopanga, bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kuna. Batikaki ata moto moko te na bomoi, ndenge kaka basalaki na engumba Egiloni. Babebisaki yango nyonso penza mpe babomaki bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kuna.
38 And Joshua and all Israel returned to Dabir; and they encamped about it;
Jozue elongo na Isalaele mobimba babalukaki na ngambo ya engumba Debiri mpe babundisaki yango.
39 and they took it, and its king, and its villages: and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and they destroyed it, and every thing breathing in it; and they did not leave in it any one that was preserved: as they did to Chebron and her king, so they did to Dabir and her king.
Babotolaki engumba mpe bamboka na yango ya mike-mike, bakangaki mokonzi na yango mpe babomaki bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kuna na mopanga. Batikaki ata moto moko te na bomoi. Jozue asalaki engumba Debiri elongo na mokonzi na yango, ndenge kaka asalaki engumba Libina elongo na mokonzi na yango, mpe Ebron elongo na mokonzi na yango.
40 And Joshua smote all the land of the hill country, and Nageb and the plain country, and Asedoth, and her kings, they did not leave of them one that was saved: and they utterly destroyed every thing that had the breath of life, as the Lord God of Israel commanded,
Boye, Jozue alongaki etuka wana nyonso: mokili ya bangomba, Negevi, etando ya pembeni-pembeni ya Ebale monene mpe etando ya se ya bangomba elongo na bakonzi na yango nyonso. Atikaki ata moto moko te na bomoi, abebisaki bato nyonso mpe biloko nyonso oyo ezalaki na bomoi, ndenge Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, apesaki ye mitindo.
41 from Cades Barne to Gaza, all Gosom, as far as Gabaon.
Jozue alongaki bango wuta na Kadeshi-Barinea kino na Gaza, mpe mokili mobimba ya Gosheni kino na Gabaoni.
42 And Joshua smote, once for all, all their kings, and their land, because the Lord God of Israel fought on the side of Israel.
Jozue alongaki bakonzi wana nyonso na mbala moko mpe abotolaki bamboka na bango, pamba te Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, azalaki kobundela Isalaele.
Sima na yango, Jozue elongo na bana nyonso ya Isalaele bazongaki na molako na Giligali.
