< Joshua 10 >

1 When Adonisedec king of Jerusalem had heard these things, to wit, that Josue had taken Hai, and had destroyed it, (for as he had done to Jericho and the king thereof, so did he to Hai, and its king, ) and that the Gabaonites were gone over to Israel, and were their confederates,
Adoonii-Zedeq Mootiin Yerusaalem akka Iyyaasuun Aayin qabatee guutumaan guutuutti barbadeesse, akka inni akkuma Yerikoo fi mootii ishee godhe sana Aayii fi Mootii ishee godhe, akkasumas akka namoonni Gibeʼoon Israaʼeloota wajjin walii galtee nagaa godhatanii isaan bira jiraatan dhagaʼe.
2 He was exceedingly afraid. For Gabaon was a great city, and one of the royal cities, and greater than the town of Hai, and all its fighting men were most valiant.
Sababii magaalaan Gibeʼoon akkuma magaalaa moototaa tokkootti magaalaa hangafa taateef innii fi namoonni isaa akka malee rifatan; magaalaan Gibeʼoon magaalaa Aayi caalaa guddoo turte; namoonni ishees loltoota jajjaboo turan.
3 Therefore Adonisedec king of Jerusalem sent to Oham king of Hebron, and to Pharam king of Jerimoth, and to Japhia king of Lachis, and to Dabir king of Eglon, saying:
Kanaafuu Adoonii-Zedeq mootichi Yerusaalem sun Hoohaam mooticha Kebroonitti, Phiraam mooticha Yarmuutitti, Yaafiiyaa mooticha Laakkiishii fi Debiir mooticha Egloonitti ergee,
4 Come up to me, and bring help, that we may take Gabaon, because it hath gone over to Josue, and to the children of Israel.
“Sababii isheen Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼel wajjin walii galtee nagaa godhatteef ol kottaatii Gibeʼoonin waraanuu na gargaaraa” jedheen.
5 So the five kings of the Amorrhites being assembled together went up: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon, they and their armies, and camped about Gabaon, laying siege to it.
Kanaafuu mootonni Amoorotaa shananuu jechuunis mootiin Yerusaalem, mootiin Kebroon, mootiin Yarmuut, mootiin Laakkiishii fi mootiin Egloon humna waraanaa walitti dabalatan. Isaanis loltoota isaanii hunda fudhatanii ol baʼanii Gibeʼoonin marsanii waraanan.
6 But the inhabitants of the city of Gabaon which was besieged, sent to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him: Withdraw not thy hands from helping thy servants: come up quickly and save us, and bring us succour: for all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwell in the mountains, are gathered together against us.
Namoonni Gibeʼoonis qubata Gilgaal gara Iyyaasuutti ergaa erganii akkana jedhaniin; “Ati garboota kee hin dhiisin. Dafii nu qaqqabiitii nu oolchi; sababii mootonni Amoorotaa kanneen biyya gaaraa keessa jiraatan hundi nu waraanuuf loltoota walitti dabalataniif nu gargaari.”
7 And Josue went up from Galgal, and all the army of the warriors with him, most valiant men.
Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun loltoota isaa hunda wajjin, namoota waraanaa jajjabeeyyii hundas dabalatee Gilgaalii ol baʼe.
8 And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hands: none of them shall be able to stand against thee.
Waaqayyos Iyyaasuudhaan, “Isaan hin sodaatin; ani harka keetti dabarsee isaan kenneera. Tokkoon isaanii iyyuu fuula kee dura dhaabachuu hin dandaʼan” jedhe.
9 So Josue going up from Galgal all the night, came upon them suddenly.
Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun Gilgaalii baʼee halkan guutuu deemaa bulee tasuma isaanitti dhufe.
10 And the Lord troubled them at the sight of Israel: and he slew them with a great slaughter in Gabaon, and pursued them by the way of the ascent to Beth-horon, and cut them off all the way to Azeca and Maceda.
Waaqayyos fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti isaan burjaajesse; Israaʼeloonnis Gibeʼoonitti moʼannaa guddaadhaan isaan moʼatan. Karaa Beet Horoonitti geessu irra isaan ariʼaa hamma Azeeqaa fi Maqeedaatti isaan gogorraʼan.
11 And when they were fleeing from the children of Israel, and were in the descent of Beth-horon, the Lord cast down upon them great stones from heaven as far as Azeca: and many more were killed with the hailstones than were slain by the swords of the children of Israel.
Utuma isaan Israaʼeloota duraa karaa Beet Horooniin gara Azeeqaatti gad baqachaa jiranuu Waaqayyo samiidhaa cabbii gurguddaa itti roobse; warra goraadee Israaʼelootaatiin dhuman caalaa kanneen cabbii kanaan dhumanitu baayʼata.
12 Then Josue spoke to the Lord, in the day that he delivered the Amorrhite in the sight of the children of Israel, and he said before them: Move not, O sun, toward Gabaon, nor thou, O moon, toward the valley of Ajalon.
Gaafa Waaqayyo Amoorota dabarsee Israaʼelootatti kenne sana Iyyaasuun fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti Waaqayyoon akkana jedhe: “Yaa aduu, Gibeʼoon gubbaa dhaabadhu; yaa jiʼa, atis Sulula Ayaaloon gubbaa dhaabadhu.”
13 And the sun and the moon stood still, till the people revenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of the just? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down the space of one day.
Kanaafuu hamma sabni diinota isaa haaloo baafatutti aduun idduma jirtu dhaabatte; jiʼis ni dhaabate; wanni kun Kitaaba Yaashaar keessatti barreeffameera mitii? Aduun walakkaa samii keessa dhaabattee guyyaa tokko guutuu utuu hin dhiʼin turte.
14 There was not before nor after so long a day, the Lord obeying the voice of a man, and fighting for Israel.
Guyyaan Waaqayyo nama dhagaʼe kan akkasii gaafasiin dura yookaan ergasii takkumaa taʼee hin beeku. Waaqayyo dhugumaan Israaʼeliif lolaa ture!
15 And Josue returned with all Israel into the camp of Galgal.
Ergasii Iyyaasuun Israaʼeloota hunda wajjin qubata Gilgaal jiru sanatti deebiʼe.
16 For the five kings were fled, and had hidden themselves in a cave of the city of Maceda.
Mootonni shanan sun baqatanii holqa Maqeedaa keessatti dhokatanii turan.
17 And it was told Josue that the five kings were found hidden in a cave of the city of Maceda.
Akka mootonni shanan holqa Maqeedaa keessatti dhokatan Iyyaasuutti himame;
18 And he commanded them that were with him, saying: Roll great stones to the mouth of the cave, and set careful men, to keep them shut up:
innis akkana jedhe; “Dhagaa guddaa isaa afaan holqa sanaatti gangalchaatii akka isaan eeganiif namoota achitti ramadaa.
19 And stay you not, but pursue after the enemies, and kill all the hindermost of them as they flee, and do not suffer them whom the Lord God hath delivered into your hands to shelter themselves in their cities.
Isin diinota keessan ariʼaatii karaa dugda duubaatiin rukutaa malee hin dhaabatinaa! Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan dabarsee harka keessanitti isaan kenneef akka isaan magaalaawwan isaanii seenan hin godhinaa.”
20 So the enemies being slain with a great slaughter, and almost utterly consumed, they that were able to escape from Israel, entered into fenced cities.
Kanaafuu Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hamma namni muraasni hafutti guutumaan guutuutti isaan barbadeessan. Warri hafan immoo magaalaawwan isaanii kanneen jajjabeeffamanii ijaaramanitti galan.
21 And all the army returned to Josue in Maceda, where the camp then was, in good health and without the loss of any one: and no man durst move his tongue against the children of Israel.
Loltoonni hundi nagumaan gara qubata Maqeedaa gara Iyyaasuutti deebiʼan; namni tokko iyyuu afaan isaa Israaʼelootatti hin bananne.
22 And Josue gave orders, saying: Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth to me the five kings that lie hid therein.
Iyyaasuunis, “Mee afaan holqa sanaa banaatii mootota shanan sana gad naa baasaa” jedhe.
23 And the ministers did as they were commanded: and they brought out to him the five kings out of the cave: the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jerimoth, the king of Lachis, the king of Eglon.
Isaanis mootota shanan sana jechuunis mootii Yerusaalem, mootii Kebroon, mootii Yarmuut, mootii Laakkiishii fi mootii Egloon holqa keessaa baasanii fidan.
24 And when they were Drought out to him, he called all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the army that were with him: Go, and set your feet on the necks of these kings. And when they had gone, and put their feet upon the necks of them lying under them,
Yommuu isaan mootota kana shanan Iyyaasuutti fidan, inni namoota Israaʼel hunda walitti waamee ajajjoota loltootaa kanneen isa wajjin dhufaniin, “Kottaatii miilla keessaniin morma mootota kanneenii irra ejjadhaa” jedhe. Isaanis gara fuula duraatti baʼanii miilla isaaniitiin morma mootota sanaa irra ejjetan.
25 He said again to them: Fear not, neither be ye dismayed, take courage and be strong: for so will the Lord do to all your enemies, against whom you fight.
Iyyaasuun, “Hin sodaatinaa; abdiis hin kutatinaa. Jabaadhaa; cimaas. Wanni Waaqayyo diinota isin loluuf deemtan hunda irratti godhuuf jirus kanuma” jedheen.
26 And Josue struck, and slew them, and hanged them upon five gibbets, and they hung until the evening.
Iyyaasuun ergasii mootota sana dhaʼee ajjeesee mukkeen shan irratti isaan fannise; isaanis hamma lafti galgalooftutti akkuma muka irratti fannifamanitti turan.
27 And when the sun was down, he commanded the soldiers to take them down from the gibbets. And after they were taken down, they cast them into the cave where they had lain hid, and put great stones at the mouth thereof, which remain until this day.
Yeroo aduun dhiitetti Iyyaasuun ajaja kenne; jarris mukkeen irraa gad isaan buusanii holqa isaan keessa dhokatanii turan sanatti isaan daddarbatan. Afaan holqa sanaa irras dhagaa gurguddaa hamma guyyaa harʼaatti illee achuma jiru naqan.
28 The same day Josue took Maceda and destroyed it, with the edge of the sword, and killed the king and all the inhabitants thereof: he left not in it the least remains. And he did to the king of Maceda, as he had done to the king of Jericho.
Iyyaasuunis guyyuma sana Maqeedaa qabate. Innis magaalaa sanaa fi mootii ishee goraadeedhaan dhaʼee nama achi keessa jiru hunda fixe. Nama tokko iyyuu hin hambifne. Mootii Maqeedaas akkuma mootii Yerikoo godhe sana godhe.
29 And he passed from Maceda with all Israel to Lebna, and fought against it:
Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni isa wajjin turan hundi Maqeedaadhaa baʼanii dhaqanii Libnaa lolan.
30 And the Lord delivered it with the king thereof into the hands of Israel: and they destroyed the city with the edge of the sword, and all the inhabitants thereof. They left not in it any remains. And they did to the king of Lebna, as they had done to the king of Jericho.
Waaqayyos magaalaa sanaa fi mootii ishee dabarsee harka Israaʼelootaatti kenne. Iyyaasuun magaalattii fi nama ishee keessa jiru hunda goraadeedhaan fixe. Inni nama tokko illee achitti hin hambifne. Mootii ishee illee akkuma mootii Yerikoo godhe sana godhe.
31 From Lebna he passed unto Lachis, with all Israel: and investing it with his army, besieged it.
Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundi isa wajjin Libnaadhaa kaʼanii Laakkiish dhaqan; isaanis magaalaa sana marsanii waraanan.
32 And the Lord delivered Lachis into the hands of Israel, and he took it the following day, and put it to the sword, and every soul that was in it, as he had done to Lebna.
Waaqayyos Laakkiish dabarsee harka Israaʼelootaatti kenne; Iyyaasuunis guyyaa lammaffaatti ishee qabate. Akkuma Libnaa godhe sana magaalaa sanaa fi warra ishee keessa jiraatan hunda goraadeedhaan fixe.
33 At that time Horam king of Gazer, came up to succour Lachis: and Josue slew him with all his people, so as to leave none alive.
Yeroo sanatti Hooraam mootichi Geezir, Laakkiish gargaaruudhaaf dhufee ture; Iyyaasuun garuu isaa fi loltoota isaa ni moʼate; namni tokko iyyuu hin hafne.
34 And he passed from Lachis to Eglon, and surrounded it,
Ergasiis Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundi Laakkiishii kaʼanii gara Egloon dhaqan; marsaniis ishee waraanan.
35 And took it the same day: and put to the sword all the souls that were in it, according to all that he had done to Lachis.
Guyyuma sana ishee qabatanii akkuma Laakkiish godhan sana ishee fi nama ishee keessa jiru hunda goraadeedhaan fixan.
36 He went up also with all Israel from Eglon to Hebron, and fought against it:
Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundis isa wajjin Egloonii kaʼanii gara Kebroonitti ol baʼanii ishee waraanan.
37 Took it, and destroyed it with the edge of the sword: the king also thereof, and all the towns of that country, and all the souls that dwelt in it: he left not therein any remains: as he had done to Eglon, so did he also to Hebron, putting to the sword all that he found in it.
Isaanis magaalattii qabatanii mootii ishee, gandoota isheetii fi nama ishee keessa jiru hunda goraadeedhaan fixan. Nama tokko iyyuu hin hambifne. Akkuma Egloon godhan sana ishee fi nama ishee keessa jiru hunda guutumaan guutuutti barbadeessan.
38 Returning from thence to Dabir,
Ergasiis Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundi isa wajjin of irra deebiʼanii Debiirin dhaʼan.
39 He took it and destroyed it: the king also thereof and all the towns round about he destroyed with the edge of the sword: he left not in it any remains: as he had done to Hebron and Lebna and to their kings, so did he to Dabir and to the king thereof.
Isaanis magaalattii, mootii isheetii fi gandoota ishee qabatanii goraadeedhaan fixan. Namoota ishee keessa jiraatan hundas guutumaan guutuutti fixan. Nama tokko iyyuu hin hambifne. Akkuma Libnaa, mootii isheetii fi Kebroon godhan sana Debiirii fi mootii ishee godhan.
40 So Josue conquered all the country of the hills and of the south and of the plain, and of Asedoth, with their kings: he left not any remains therein, but slew all that breathed, as the Lord the God of Israel had commanded him,
Iyyaasuunis akkasiin guutummaa biyya sanaa, biyya gaaraa, Negeebi, biyya gammoojjii, tabbawwan tulluutii fi mootota isaanii hundas moʼate. Inni akkuma Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel ajajetti waan hafuura baafatu hunda guutumaan guutuutti balleesse malee nama tokko illee hin hambifne.
41 From Cadesbarne even to Gaza. All the land of Gosen even to Gabaon,
Iyyaasuun Qaadesh Barnee irraa jalqabee hamma Gaazaatti, guutummaa biyya Gooshen hamma Gibeʼoonitti qabate.
42 And all their kings, and their lands he took and wasted at one onset: for the Lord the God of Israel fought for him.
Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel Israaʼeliif loleef Iyyaasuun mootota kanneenii fi lafa isaanii loluma tokkoon moʼate.
43 And he returned with all Israel to the place of the camp in Galgal.
Ergasii Iyyaasuun Israaʼeloota hunda wajjin gara qubata Gilgaalitti deebiʼe.
