< Joshua 7 >

1 However, the Israelites had not been faithful regarding those things set apart for the Lord. Achan had taken some of them which made the Lord very angry with the Israelites. Achan was the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah.
Hina Gode da Isala: ili dunuma ilia da liligi huluanedafa wadela: lesima: ne amola Ema ilegei liligi mae wamolama: ne sia: i dagoi. Be ilia da Ea sia: hame nabi. Dunu ea dio amo A: iga: ne da liligi wamolai dagoi. (A: iga: ne da Gami egefe amola Sa: badai ea aowa. E da Sila sosogo fi Yuda fi amo ganodini esalu.)
2 Joshua sent men from the camp near Jericho to the town of Ai, which is near Bethaven, east of Bethel. “Go and explore the land,” he told them. So they went and explored around Ai.
Yosiua da asunasiba: le, Isala: ili desega ahoasu dunu da Yeligou fisili, A:iai moilai bai bagade (Bedele moilai ea eso mabadi la: idi diala, Beda: ifene moilai gadenei) amo ea hou hogola asi. Ba: lalu,
3 When they returned they told Joshua, “The whole army isn't needed. Two or three thousand men is enough to go and attack Ai. Don't bother sending everyone—there's only a few of them.”
ilia da Yosiuama buhagili, amane sia: i, “A: iai da moilai bai fonobahadi fawane. Dadi gagui dunu huluane amoga doagala: musa: , mae asunasima. 3000 o 2000 dunu amo fawane da amo moilai wadela: lesimu da defea.”
4 So around three thousand men went to fight, but they were beaten by the men of Ai and they ran away.
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dadi gagui dunu 3000 agoane da A: iai moilaiga doagala: musa: asi. Be ilia se nabi, amola beba: le bu hobea: i.
5 The men of Ai killed about thirty-six of them, chasing the Israelites from the town gate until they were defeated, killing them on their way down. At this the Israelites became afraid, losing all their courage.
A: iai dunu da moilai bai bagade gagoi logo ga: su amoga ilima gegene, ili sefasili igi lamu sogebi amoga sefasi. Isala: ili dunu da agoloba: le sa: ili hobeale, A:iai dunu da Isala: ili dunu 36amo medole legei. Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da ilia gasa fisili bagadewane beda: i.
6 Joshua ripped his clothes and fell down with his face to the ground in front of the Ark of the Lord until the evening. The elders did likewise, and he and the elders threw dust on their heads.
Yosiua amola Isala: ili dunu da se nababeba: le, ilia abula gadelale, Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili midadi osoboga diasa: i. Ilia da: i dioi olelema: ne, ilia dialuma amo osobo gulu amoga dedebole amo esoga osoboga diasa: i dialu.
7 Joshua cried, “Why, oh why, Lord God, did you bring us across the Jordan River only to hand us over to the Amorites for them to destroy us? We should have been satisfied to stay on the other side of the Jordan!
Amola Yosiua da amane sia: i, “Hinadafa Gode! Dia da abuliba: le nini Yodane Hano degema: ne oule misibala: ? Nini A: moulaide dunu amoga wadela: musa: oule misibala: ? Ninia Yodane Hano na: iyado bega: esalumu da defea galu.
8 Excuse me, Lord, but what can I say now that Israel has turned tail and run away from its enemies?
Hina Gode! Isala: ili dunu da ilima ha lai dunu amoga hobea: iba: le, na da adi sia: ma: bela: ?
9 The Canaanites and everyone living in the land will come and surround us and wipe us out so completely that even our name will be forgotten. Then what will happen to your great reputation?”
Ga: ina: ne dunu amola dunu huluane amo soge ganodini esala da amo sia: nababeba: le, nini sisiga: le, nini huluane medole legemu. Amasea, ninia da Dia Dio nodone gaga: ma: ne, Dia da adi hamoma: bela: ?”
10 But the Lord replied to Joshua, “Stand up! What do you think you're doing lying on your face like that?
Be Hina Gode da Yosiuama amane sia: i, “Wa: legadoma! Di da abuliba: le osoboga udigili diahala: ?
11 Israel has sinned and has broken my agreement that I ordered them to keep. They have taken some of the things set apart for me; they have acted dishonestly; they have hidden the stolen items with their own belongings.
Isala: ili fi da wadela: le hamoi dagoi. Ilia da Na Gousa: su amo ilia noga: le bobogema: ne Na sia: i, amo wadela: lesi dagoi. Ilia da liligi mogili Nama gobele sanasimusa: ilegei, amo lai dagoi. Ilia da wamolai amola ogogoi, amola liligi wamolai amo ilia liligi ganodini sali.
12 That's why the Israelites can't stand up to their enemies. That's why they turn and run from their enemies, and have themselves become set apart for destruction. You will not be able to stand against your enemies until you have removed from among you those things set apart for destruction.
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da ilima ha lai dunuma hasalimu gogolesa. Ilia da beba: le hobeasa. Bai ilisu da wali wadela: musa: ilegei dagoi. Amo liligi wamolai dilia hame fadegale fasisia, Na da dili hame sigi masunu.
13 Get up, and make sure the people are pure. Tell them, ‘Make yourselves pure in readiness for tomorrow, because this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says, There are things set apart for me that are hidden among you, Israel. You will not be able to stand against your enemies until you remove all of them.
Wale gadoma! Dunu huluane da Nama misa: ne, ilia dodofema: ne sia: ma. Dilia da amo liligi hame fadegale fasisia, dilia da dilima ha lai ilima gegemu da hamedei agoane ba: mu.
14 In the morning, you will come forward, tribe by tribe. Whichever tribe the Lord chooses will come forward clan by clan. The clan that the Lord chooses will come forward family by family. The family that the Lord chooses will come forward man by man.
Hahabe dilia fi afae afae Nama oule misa. Na da fi afae ilegemu. Amo fi ilegei da sosogo fi afae afae Nama oule misa: ne sia: ma. Amasea, na da dunu afae ilegemu.
15 The one who is caught with what was set apart for destruction will be burned by fire, along with all that is his, for he broke the Lord's agreement and committed a terrible act in Israel.’”
Amo dunu Na da wamolasu dunu ilegemu. Amo dunu amola ea sosogo fi amola ea liligi huluane, laluga gobesima. Bai e da Na Gousa: su wadela: lesi dagoi, amola gogosiasu bagade Isala: ili fi ilima i.”
16 Joshua got up early the next morning and called Israel forward, tribe by tribe.
Hahabedafa, Yosiua da Isala: ili dunu huluane fi afae afae oule misini, Yuda fi da ilegei dagoi ba: i.
17 The tribe of Judah was chosen. The clans of Judah came forward and the Zerahites were chosen. The clan of Zerahites came forward, and the family of Zabdi was chosen.
E da Yuda fi amo ganodini afae afae amo oule misini, Sila ea fi ilegei dagoi ba: i. Amo da sosogo fi afae afae misini, Sa: badai ea sosogo fi ilegei dagoi ba: i.
18 The family of Zabdi came forward, and Achan, son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was chosen.
Amalalu, Yosiua da Sa: badai ea sosogo fi dunu afae afae oule misini, A:iga: ne (Gami egefe amola Sa: badai ea aowa) amo ilegei dagoi ba: i.
19 Joshua said to Achan, “My son, honor the Lord, the God of Israel, and confess. Tell me what you have done. Don't hide it from me.”
Yosiua da A: iga: nema amane sia: i, “Na gofe! Isala: ili Hina Gode ba: ma: ne, dafawane sia: olelema. Dia hamoi olelema. Nama amo hou mae wamolegema.”
20 “It's true!” Achan replied. “I have sinned against the Lord, the God of Israel. This is what I did.
A: iga: ne da bu adole i, “Dafawane! Na Isala: ili Hina Godema wadela: le hamoi. Na da agoane hamoi.
21 Among the plunder I saw a beautiful cloak from Babylonia, two hundred shekels of silver, and a bar of gold weighing fifty shekels. I really wanted them, so I took them. They're hidden in the ground inside my tent, with the silver buried deeper.”
Ninia liligi lai amo ganodini, na da Ba: balounia abula, silifa2gilogala: me agoane amola gouli 1/2 gilogala: me baligi amo ba: i dagoi. Na da amo bagade hanaiba: le, lai dagoi. Dilia da na abula diasu ganodini amo liligi uli dogoi ganodini wamolegei dagoi ba: mu. Silifa da eno liligi hagudu dialebe ba: mu.”
22 Joshua sent men who ran over to search the tent. They found what had been hidden, with the silver buried deeper.
Amaiba: le, Yosiua da dunu mogili asunasi. Ilia da hehenane, wamolai liligi amo A: iga: ne ea abula diasu ganodini wamolegei dagoi ba: i. Amola silifa da hagudu dialebe ba: i.
23 The men took the things from the tent and brought them to Joshua and all the Israelites. There they spread them out before the Lord.
Amo liligi huluane ilia da A: iga: ne abula diasuga gadili gaguli asili, Yosiua amola Isala: ili dunu huluane da gaguli asili, Hina Gode ba: ma: ne ligisi.
24 Then Joshua, with all the Israelites, took Achan, the son of Zerah, the silver, the cloak, and the bar of gold, together with his sons and daughters, his cattle, his donkeys, his sheep, and his tent—everything he had—and brought them to the Valley of Achor.
Yosiua amola Isala: ili dunu huluane da A: iga: ne, silifa, abula, gouli amola A: iga: ne ea dunu amola uda mano huluane, ea bulamagau, ea dougi, ea sibi amola ea abula diasu amo gaguli, Bidi Hamosu Fago sogebiga hiouginana asi.
25 Then Joshua said to Achan, “Why did you bring so much trouble down on us? Today the Lord will bring trouble down on you.” All the Israelites stoned Achan. Then when they had stoned the rest they burned their bodies.
Amola Yosiua da amane sia: i, “Dia da abuliba: le amo se nabasu ninima iaha. Hina Gode da wali dima se imunu.” Amalalu, dunu huluane da A: iga: ne igiga medole legei. Ilia da ea sosogo fi amola ea liligi huluane igiga medole lelegele, laluga gobesi.
26 They set up a great pile of stones over him which remains to this day. The Lord was no longer angry. This is why the place was called the Valley of Achor ever since.
Ilia da ea da: i hodo amo igi ligisisu bagade amoga dedeboi. Amo igi ligisisu da wali eso dialebe. Amaiba: le, amo fago sogebi ea dio da wali Bidi Hamosu Fago. Amalalu, Hina Gode da Ea gia: i bagade ougi fisi.
