< Joshua 11 >

1 And when Jabin king of Asor had heard these things, he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Semeron, and to the king of Achsaph:
Sa’ad da Yabin sarkin Hazor ya ji wannan, sai ya aika saƙo zuwa wurin Yobab sarkin Madon, da sarkin Shimron, da Akshaf,
2 And to the kings of the north, that dwelt in the mountains and in the plains over against the south side of Ceneroth, and in the levels and the countries of Dor by the sea side:
ya kuma aika zuwa ga sarakunan arewa waɗanda suke kan tuddai da kuma waɗanda suke cikin Araba a kudancin Kinneret da cikin filayen kwari, da cikin Nafot Dor a yamma;
3 To the Chanaanites also on the ease and on the west, and the Amorrhite, and the Hethite, and the Pherezite, and the Jebusite in the mountains: to the Hevite also who dwelt at the foot of Hermon in the land of Maspha.
ya kuma aika zuwa ga Kan’aniyawa a gabas da yamma; da kuma zuwa ga Amoriyawa, Hittiyawa da Ferizziyawa, da Yebusiyawa da suke kan tuddai; da kuma Hiwiyawa masu zama a gindin dutsen Hermon a yankin Mizfa.
4 And they all came out with their troops, a people exceeding numerous as the sand that is on the sea shore, their horses also and chariots a very great multitude,
Suka fito da dukan rundunansu da keken yaƙi masu yawan gaske, babbar runduna, yawansu ya yi kamar yashin bakin teku.
5 And all these kings assembled together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.
Duk sarakunan nan suka haɗa mayaƙansu tare, suka kafa sansani a bakin Ruwayen Meron don su yi yaƙi da Isra’ilawa.
6 And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for tomorrow at this same hour I will deliver all these to be slain in the sight of Israel: thou shalt hamstring their horses, and thou shalt burn their chariots with fire.
Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Kada ka ji tsoronsu, domin war haka gobe zan ba da dukansu a hannun Isra’ilawa, za su kuwa karkashe su. Za ku gurgunta dawakansu, ku kuma ƙone keken yaƙinsu.”
7 And Josue came, and all the army with him, against them to the waters of Merom on a sudden, and fell upon them.
Sai Yoshuwa da dukan mayaƙan suka auka musu a bakin Ruwayen Meron.
8 And the Lord delivered them into the hands of Israel. And they defeated them, and chased them as far as the great Sidon, and the waters of Maserophot, and the field of Masphe, which is on the east side thereof. He slew them all, so as to leave no remains of them:
Ubangiji kuwa ya ba Isra’ilawa nasara a kan su, suka ci su da yaƙi, suka fafare su har zuwa Sidon Babba, zuwa Misrefot Mayim, har zuwa Kwarin Mizfa a gabas, ba wanda suka bari da rai.
9 And he did as the Lord had commanded him, he hamstringed their horses and burned their chariots.
Yoshuwa ya yi musu yadda Ubangiji ya umarta, ya gurgunta dawakansu, ya kuma ƙone keken yaƙinsu.
10 And presently turning back he took Asor: and slew the king thereof with the sword. Now Asor of old was the head of all these kingdoms.
A lokacin nan Yoshuwa ya koma da baya ya ci Hazor da yaƙi, ya kuma kashe sarkinta da takobi. (Hazor ce babbar masarautan ƙasashen nan.)
11 And he cut off all the souls that abode there: he left not in it any remains, but utterly destroyed all, and burned the city itself with fire.
Suka karkashe duk mazaunan ƙasar da takobi, ba su bar wani mai numfashi ba, suka kuma ƙona Hazor.
12 And he took and put to the sword and destroyed all the cities round about, and their kings, as Moses the servant of God had commanded him.
Yoshuwa ya ƙwace masarautun nan duka ya kuma kashe sarakunansu da takobi, ya hallakar da su ƙaƙaf kamar yadda Musa bawan Ubangiji ya umarta.
13 Except the cities that were on hills and high places, the rest Israel burned: only Asor that was very strong he consumed with fire.
Duk da haka Isra’ilawa ba su ƙone biranen da suke kan tuddai ba, sai Hazor kaɗai Yoshuwa ya ƙone.
14 And the children of Israel divided among themselves all the spoil of these cities and the cattle, killing all the men.
Isra’ilawa suka kwashi ganima da dabbobi na waɗannan birane, amma suka karkashe mutanen duka da takobi, ba su bar wani mai numfashi ba.
15 As the Lord had commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Josue, and he accomplished all: he left not one thing undone of all the commandments which the Lord had commanded Moses.
Yadda Ubangiji ya umarci bawansa Musa, haka Musa ya umarci Yoshuwa, shi kuwa ya yi duk abin da Ubangiji ya umarci Musa.
16 So Josue took all the country of the hills, and of the south, and the land of Gosen, and the plains and the west country, and the mountain of Israel, and the plains thereof:
Saboda haka Yoshuwa ya cinye ƙasar duka da yaƙi, dukan Negeb, duka yankin Goshen, filayen kwari na yamma, Araba da tuddai na Isra’ila da kwarinta.
17 And part of the mountain that goeth up to Seir as far as Baalgad, by the plain of Libanus under mount Hermon: all their kings he took, smote and slew.
Daga Dutsen Halak wanda ya miƙe zuwa wajajen Seyir, zuwa Ba’al-Gad a Kwarin Lebanon ƙasa da Dutsen Hermon. Ya kama sarakunansu ya karkashe su.
18 Josue made war a long time against these kings.
Yoshuwa ya daɗe yana yaƙi da dukan waɗannan sarakuna.
19 There was hot a city that delivered itself to the children of Israel, except the Hevite, who dwelt in Gabaon: for he took all by fight.
Sai Hiwiyawa kaɗai waɗanda suke zama a Gibeyon, sauran ba ko birni ɗaya da ta yi yarjejjeniya ta salama da Isra’ilawa, Isra’ilawa kuwa suka ci dukansu da yaƙi.
20 For it was the sentence of the Lord, that their hearts should be hardened, and they should fight against Israel, and fall, and should not deserve any clemency, and should be destroyed as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Gama Ubangiji ne ya taurare zukatansu waɗannan sarakuna suka yi yaƙi da Isra’ilawa don yă hallaka su gaba ɗaya, yă gamar da su ba jinƙai, yadda Ubangiji ya umarci Musa.
21 At that time Josue came and cut off the Enacims from the mountains, from Hebron, and Dabir, and Anab, and from all the mountain of Juda and Israel, and destroyed their cities.
A lokacin nan Yoshuwa ya je ya hallaka Anakawa daga ƙasar tudu. Daga Hebron, Debir da Anab. Daga dukan ƙasar tuddai na Yahuda, da kuma dukan ƙasar tudu ta Isra’ila, Yoshuwa ya hallaka su duka da garuruwansu.
22 He left not any of the stock of the Enacims, in the land of the children of Israel: except the cities of Gaza, and Geth, and Azotus, in which alone they were left.
Ba a bar waɗansu Anakawa a harabar Isra’ila ba; sai dai a Gaza, Gat da Ashdod ne aka samu waɗanda suka ragu da rai.
23 So Josue took all the land, as the Lord spoke to Moses, and delivered it in possession to the children of Israel, according to their divisions and tribes. And the land rested from wars.
Yoshuwa kuwa ya ƙwace dukan ƙasar yadda Ubangiji ya umarci Musa, ya ba da ita ta zama ƙasar gādo ga Isra’ilawa, kabila-kabila. Ta haka ƙasar ta huta daga yaƙi.
