< Joshua 11 >

1 And when Jabin, the king of Hazor, had heard these things, he sent to Jobab, the king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
Tango Yabini, mokonzi ya Atsori, ayokaki makambo oyo, atindaki maloba epai ya Yobabi, mokonzi ya Madoni; epai ya mokonzi ya Shimironi, epai ya mokonzi ya Akishafi,
2 also to the kings of the north, who were living in the mountains, and in the plains opposite the southern region of Chinneroth, and also in the plains and the regions of Dor, beside the sea,
epai ya bakonzi oyo bazalaki na etuka ya bangomba na nor, na etando ya Araba, na ngambo ya sude ya Kinereti, na mokili ya bangomba mikuse, na ngambo ya weste ya etando ya Dori;
3 also to the Canaanites, from east to west, and to the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the mountains, also to the Hivite who was living at the base of Hermon, in the land of Mizpah.
epai ya bato ya Kanana oyo bazalaki na ngambo ya este mpe na ngambo ya weste; epai ya bato ya Amori, ya Iti, ya Perizi mpe ya Yebusi, oyo bazalaki kovanda na mokili ya bangomba; epai ya bato ya Evi, na se ya Erimoni, na mokili ya Mitsipa.
4 And they all went forth with their troops, a people exceedingly numerous, like the sand that is on the shore of the sea. And their horses and chariots were an immense multitude.
Babimaki elongo na mampinga na bango nyonso, mpe bato bazalaki ebele lokola zelo ya ebale elongo na motango monene ya bampunda mpe ya bashar.
5 And all these kings assembled at the waters of Merom, so that they might fight against Israel.
Bakonzi yango nyonso basangisaki mampinga na bango esika moko mpe batongaki molako na bango pembeni ya mayi ya Meromi mpo na kobundisa Isalaele.
6 And the Lord said to Joshua: “You should not fear them. For tomorrow, at this same hour, I will deliver all these to be wounded in the sight of Israel. You will hamstring their horses, and you will burn their chariots with fire.”
Yawe alobaki na Jozue: « Kobanga bango te, pamba te lobi, kaka na ngonga oyo, nakokaba bango nyonso na maboko ya Isalaele lokola bibembe. Okokata misisa ya makolo ya bampunda na bango mpe okotumba bashar na bango. »
7 And Joshua, and the entire army with him, came against them suddenly, at the waters of Merom, and they rushed upon them.
Boye Jozue elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso babimelaki bango na pwasa, na mayi ya Meromi mpe babundisaki bango;
8 And the Lord delivered them into the hands of Israel. And they struck them, and they pursued them as far as the great Sidon, and the waters of Misrephoth, and the field of Mizpeh, which is toward the eastern region. He struck them all, so that nothing was left of them to remain.
bongo Yawe akabaki bango na maboko ya Isalaele. Balongaki bango mpe balandaki bango kino na Sidoni, engumba monene, kino na Misirefoti-Mayimi mpe kino na ngambo ya este ya lubwaku ya Mitsipe. Babomaki bango mpe batikaki ata moto moko te na bomoi.
9 And he did just as the Lord had instructed him. He hamstrung their horses, and he burned their chariots with fire.
Jozue asalaki bango ndenge Yawe atindaki: akataki misisa ya makolo ya bampunda na bango mpe atumbaki bashar na bango.
10 And turning back, he immediately seized Hazor. And he struck down its king with the sword. For Hazor, from antiquity, held the first position among all these kingdoms.
Na tango wana, Jozue azongaki, abotolaki engumba Atsori mpe abomaki mokonzi na yango na mopanga. Atsori ezalaki mboka mokonzi ya mokili wana nyonso.
11 And he struck down all the souls that were staying there. He did not leave in it any remains, but he destroyed everything unto utter annihilation, and he destroyed the city itself with fire.
Babomaki moto nyonso oyo azalaki kuna na mopanga. Babebisaki penza bango nyonso, babikisaki ata ekelamu moko te ya pema mpe batumbaki engumba Atsori.
12 And he seized, struck, and destroyed all the surrounding cities and their kings, just as Moses, the servant of God, had instructed him.
Jozue abotolaki bingumba nyonso ya bakonzi wana mpe abomaki bakonzi na yango na mopanga. Abomaki bango nyonso kolanda ndenge Moyize, mowumbu na Yawe, atindaki.
13 And except for the cities that were on hills and in elevated places, the rest Israel burned. One only, highly-fortified Hazor, was consumed with fire.
Kasi Isalaele atikalaki te kotumba bingumba oyo ezalaki na bangomba longola kaka Atsori oyo Jozue atumbaki.
14 And the sons of Israel divided among themselves all the plunder of these cities, and the cattle, putting to death all persons.
Bana ya Isalaele bazwaki mpo na bango lokola bomengo ya bitumba: biloko nyonso ya engumba wana mpe bibwele na yango, kasi basilisaki koboma bato nyonso na mopanga, batikaki ata moto moko te na bomoi.
15 Just as the Lord had instructed his servant Moses, so did Moses instruct Joshua, and he fulfilled everything. He did not omit even one word out of all the commandments, which the Lord had commanded Moses.
Jozue asalaki ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye na nzela ya mosali na ye Moyize, atikaki ata eloko moko te kati na makambo nyonso oyo Yawe atindaki Moyize.
16 And so Joshua seized the entire land of the mountains, and of the south, and the land of Goshen, and the plains, and the western region, and the mountain of Israel, and its plains.
Jozue abotolaki bamboka oyo nyonso: mokili ya bangomba, Negevi mobimba, mokili mobimba ya Gosheni, mokili ya se, etando ya Araba, ngomba ya Isalaele mpe bamboka na yango ya se,
17 As for the part of the mountain that ascends to Seir, as far as Baalgad, along the plain of Lebanon under mount Hermon, all their kings he seized, struck down, and killed.
wuta na ngomba Alaki oyo ezalaki na ngambo ya Seiri kino na Bala-Gadi, na lubwaku ya Libani na ebandeli ya ngomba Erimoni. Abundisaki bakonzi na yango nyonso mpe abomaki bango.
18 For a long time, Joshua fought against these kings.
Jozue abundisaki bakonzi wana nyonso tango molayi.
19 There was not a city that delivered itself to the sons of Israel, except the Hivites who were living at Gibeon. For he seized it all in warfare.
Longola kaka bato ya Evi oyo bazalaki kovanda na Gabaoni, engumba moko te etikalaki kosala boyokani ya kimia na bana ya Isalaele, oyo babotolaki yango nyonso na bitumba.
20 For it was the sentence of the Lord that their hearts would be hardened, and that they would fight against Israel and fall, and that they did not deserve any clemency, and that they should perish, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Nzokande, Yawe Ye moko azalaki koyeisa bango mitema mabanga mpo ete babundisa Isalaele, mpe mpo ete Isalaele asilisa koboma bango nyonso na mawa te, ndenge Yawe atindaki Moyize.
21 In that time, Joshua went and put to death the Anakim from the mountains, from Hebron and Debir and Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah and Israel. And he destroyed their cities.
Na tango wana, Jozue akendeki koboma bato ya Anaki wuta na mokili ya bangomba: wuta na Ebron, na Debiri, na Anabi, na mokili nyonso ya bangomba ya Yuda mpe na mokili nyonso ya bangomba ya Isalaele. Jozue asilisaki koboma bango nyonso elongo na bingumba na bango.
22 He did not leave any from the stock of the Anakim in the land of the sons of Israel, except the cities of Gaza, and Gath, and Ashdod, which alone were left behind.
Ata moto moko te ya Anaki atikalaki kati na mokili ya bana ya Isalaele. Batikalaki kaka na Gaza, kati na Gati, mpe na Asidodi.
23 Thus, Joshua seized all the land, just as the Lord spoke to Moses, and he delivered it as a possession to the sons of Israel, according to their divisions and tribes. And the land rested from battles.
Jozue abotolaki mokili yango nyonso ndenge Yawe atindaki na Moyize, apesaki yango na Isalaele lokola libula mpe akabolaki yango kolanda mabota ya Isalaele. Bongo mokili ekomaki na kimia mpe bitumba ezalaki lisusu te.
