Joshua 7
1 But the children of Israel transgressed the commandment, and took to their own use of the anathema. For Achan the son of Charmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zare of the tribe of Juda, took something of the anathema: and the Lord was angry against the children of Israel.
Jo-Israel ne ok obedo jo-ratiro kaluwore gi gik mane owal ni Jehova Nyasaye. Ngʼat mane nyinge Akan wuod Karmi, ma wuod Zabdi, ma wuod Zera, mar dhood Juda nokawo moko kuom gik mane owalgi. Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nobedo gi mirima gi jo-Israel.
2 And when Josue sent men from Jericho against Hai, which is beside Bethaven, on the east side of the town of Bethel, he said to them: Go up, and view the country: and they fulfilled his command, and viewed Hai.
Kane Joshua ooro ji koa Jeriko mondo odhi Ai, mantiere but Beth Aven yo podho chiengʼ mar Bethel nokonegi niya, “Dhiuru kendo utim nonro ma lingʼ-lingʼ mar gwengʼno.” Omiyo jogo nodhi mi ginono Ai lingʼ-lingʼ.
3 And returning they said to him: Let not all the people go up, but let two or three thousand men go and destroy the city: why should all the people be troubled in vain against enemies that are very few?
Kane gidwogo ir Joshua, negiwachone niya, “Ji duto ok onego dhi kedo gi jo-Ai. To or ji alufu ariyo kata adek mondo odhi okawe kendo kik oket ji obed mool nikech nitiere mana ji manok kuno.”
4 There went up therefore three thousand fighting men: who immediately turned their backs,
Omiyo ji madirom alufu adek ema nodhi, to jo-Ai noriembogi,
5 And were defeated by the men of the city of Hai, and there fell of them six and thirty men: and the enemies pursued them from the gate as far as Sabarim, and they slew them as they fled by the descent: and the heart of the people was struck with fear, and melted like water.
mi ji madirom piero adek gauchiel nonegi. Ne giriembo jo-Israel koa e dhoranga dala maduongʼ nyaka kama nitiere kite mopa kendo neginegogi e holo. Mano nomiyo kihondko nogoyogi ma gipodho.
6 But Josue rent his garments, and fell flat on the ground before the ark of the Lord until the evening, both he and all the ancients of Israel: and they put dust upon their heads.
Bangʼe Joshua noyiecho lepe mi opodho auma e nyim Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye, moriyo kanyo nyaka odhiambo. Jodong Israel bende notimo kamano kendo ne giolo buru e wigi.
7 And Josue said: Alas, O Lord God, why wouldst thou bring this people over the river Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorrhite, and to destroy us? would God, we had stayed beyond the Jordan as we began.
Joshua nowacho niya, “Yaye, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, ere gima omiyo isekelo jogi loka mar aora Jordan mana ni mondo ichiwgi e lwet jo-Amor mondo itiekgi? Mad ne gik mane wan-go loka cha romwa kendo wasik kuno!
8 My Lord God, what shall I say, seeing Israel turning their backs to their enemies?
Yaye, Ruoth Nyasaye, en angʼo ma dwawachi ka jo-Israel oseriemb gi wasikgi kama?
9 The Chanaanites, and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it, and being gathered together will surround us and cut off our name from the earth: and what wilt thou do to thy great name?
Jo-Kanaan gi jopinyni mamoko biro winjo kuom wachni kendo gibiro monjowa mi gitiekwa e pinyni. Angʼo ma nitim mondo ires nyingi maduongʼni?”
10 And the Lord said to Josue: Arise, why liest thou flat on the ground?
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ni Joshua niya, “Chungʼ malo! Angʼo ma ikulone wiyi piny ka?
11 Israel hath sinned, and transgressed my covenant: and they have taken of the anathema, and have stolen and lied, and have hidden it among their goods.
Jo-Israel osetimo richo, kendo giseketho singruokna mane achikogi mondo giriti. Gisekawo bath gik moko mane owal, gisekwalo, giseriambo, kendo gisekawo gigo mokwer ma giriwo gi gig-gi giwegi.
12 Neither can Israel stand before his enemies, but he shall flee from them: because he is defiled with the anathema. I will be no more with you, till you destroy him that is guilty of this wickedness.
Mano emomiyo jo-Israel ok nyal loyo wasikgi; giloko ngʼegi kendo giringo nikech oseketgi gir kethruok. Ok anabed kodu makmana ka uketho gigo manie dieru mowal ni kethruok.
13 Arise, sanctify the people, and say to them: Be ye sanctified against tomorrow: for thus saith the Lord God of Israel: The anathema is in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thy enemies, till he be destroyed out of thee that is defiled with this wickedness.
“Aa malo mondo inyis jo-Israel opwodhre kinyisogi ni, ‘Pwodhreuru kuikoru ni odiechiengʼ ma kiny nikech Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel wacho kama: Gik mowal ne Jehova Nyasaye nitie e dieru, yaye Israel, omiyo kapod ok ugolo gigo kuomu, to ok unulo wasiku.
14 And you shall come in the morning every one by your tribes: and what tribe soever the lot shall find, it shall come by its kindreds and the kindred by its houses, and the house by the men.
“‘Wuoguru gokinyi dhoot ka dhoot. Dhoot ma Jehova Nyasaye noyier biro biro e nyime anywola ka anywola, to anywola ma Jehova Nyasaye noyier biro biro e nyime dala ka dala, kendo dala ma Jehova Nyasaye noyier biro biro e nyime ngʼato ka ngʼato.
15 And whosoever he be that shall be found guilty of this fact, he shall be burnt with fire with all his substance, because he hath transgressed the covenant of the Lord, and hath done wickedness in Israel.
Ngʼatno mani maki gi gigo mowal notieki gi mach, kaachiel gi gige duto, nikech oseketho singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo osetimo gima mono e piny Israel!’”
16 Josue, therefore, when he rose in the morning, made Israel to come by their tribes, and the tribe of Juda was found,
Kinyne gokinyi mangʼich Joshua noluongo jo-Israel gi dhoutgi, kendo Juda noyier.
17 Which being brought by its families, it was found to be the family of Zare. Bringing that also by the houses, he found it to be Zabdi.
Anywola mar Juda nobiro, mi oyier joka Zera. Joka Zera nobiro ot ka ot mi od Zabdi ema noyier.
18 And bringing his house man by man, he found Achan the son of Charmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zare of the tribe of Juda.
Kane ogolo ngʼato ka ngʼato kuom joka Zabdi, to Akan wuod Karmi, ma wuod Zimri, ma wuod Zera mar dhood Juda ema noyier.
19 And Josue said to Achan: My son, give glory to the Lord God of Israel, and confess, and tell me what thou hast done, hide it not.
Bangʼ mano, Joshua nowachone Akan niya, “Wuoda, mi Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel duongʼ gi pak. Nyisa gima isetimo kendo kik ipanda.”
20 And Achan answered Josue, and said to him: Indeed I have sinned against the Lord the God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done.
Akan nodwoke niya, “En adier! Asetimone Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel richo. Ma e gima asetimo:
21 For I saw among the spoils a scarlet garment exceeding good, and two hundred sides of silver, and a golden rule of fifty sides: and I coveted them, and I took them away, and hid them in the ground is the midst of my tent, and the silver I covered with the earth that I dug up.
Kane aneno gik miketho kaka njora maber moa Babulon, gi fedha ma pekne dirom kilo ariyo, to gi dhahabu ma pekne oromo nus kilo, to chunya nogombogi mi akawogi kendo apandogi e bwo lowo ei hemba ka fedha ema oket piny mogik.”
22 Josue therefore sent ministers: who running to his tent, found all hidden in the same place, together with the silver.
Omiyo Joshua nooro joote mi giringo e hema kendo ne giyudogi mana kaka gin, kopandgi e hembe, ka fedha ema oket piny mogik.
23 And taking them away out of the tent, they brought them to Josue, and to all the children of Israel, and threw them down before the Lord.
Negigolo gigo koa e hema, mi gikelogi ni Joshua kod jo-Israel duto kendo gipedhogi oko e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
24 Then Josue and all Israel with him took Achan the son of Zare, and the silver and the garments, and the golden rule, his sons also and his daughters, his oxen and asses and sheep, the tent also, and all the goods: and brought them to the valley of Achor:
Bangʼ mano Joshua, kaachiel gi jo-Israel duto nokawo Akan ma nyakwar Zera, gi fedha, gi njora, gi dhahabu, yawuote kod nyige, dhok, punde kod rombe, hembe kod gigo duto ma en godo mi giterogi nyaka e holo mar Akor.
25 Where Josue said: Because thou hast troubled us, the Lord trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him: and all things that were his, were consumed with fire.
Joshua nowacho niya, “Angʼo momiyo isekelo masira machal kama kuomwa? In bende Jehova Nyasaye biro keloni masira.” Bangʼe jo-Israel duto nochielo Akan kod joge gi kite, kendo ne giwangʼe kaachiel gi joge.
26 And they gathered together upon him a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day. And the wrath of the Lord was turned away from them. And the name of that place was called the Valley of Achor, until this day.
Bangʼ mano ne gidhuro kite kuom Akan, ma mano pod ni kamano nyaka chil kawuono. Eka mirima mar Jehova Nyasaye norumo. Kuom mano kanyo pod iluongo ni Holo mar Akor nyaka chil kawuono.
