< 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.
LAWE hala iho la na mamo a Iseraela ma ka mea laa; no ka mea, o Akana, ke keiki a Karemi, ke keiki a Zabedi, ke keiki a Zera, no ka ohana o Iuda, lalau aku la ia i ka mea laa, alaila, wela iho la ka inaina o Iehova i na mamo a Iseraela.
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.
Hoouna aku la o Iosua i mau kanaka, mai Ieriko aku a Ai, ma ke alo o Betavena, ma ka hikina o Betela, olelo aku la ia lakou, i aku la, O pii oukou, a e makai i ka aina. Pii aku la ua mau kanaka la, makai iho la ia Ai.
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.”
Hoi mai la lakou ia Iosua, olelo mai ia ia, Mai pii aku na kanaka a pau. Elua tausani kanaka e pii. ekolu paha, a e luku ia Ai, mai hookaumaha i na kanaka a pau malaila, no ka mea, ua uuku lakou.
4 So around three thousand men went to fight, but they were beaten by the men of Ai and they ran away.
Pii aku la ilaila, ekolu tausani kanaka o lakou; a hee iho la lakou imua o na kanaka o Ai.
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.
Pepehi mai la na kanaka o Ai i kanakolukumamaono o lakou; a hahai ia lakou mai ka puka mai a hiki i Sebarima, a i ka iho ana, pepehi mai la lakou. Maule iho la ka naau o kanaka, a lilo iho la i mea e like me ka wai.
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.
Haehae iho la o Iosua i kona aahu, moe iho la kona alo ilalo i ka lepo imua o ka pahu o Iehova, i ke ahiahi, oia, a me na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela, kau ae la i ka lepo maluna o ko lakou poo iho.
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!
Olelo aku la o Iosua, Auwe, e Iehova, e ka Haku e! No ke aha la oe i lawe iki mai ai i keia poe kanaka, ma keia aoao o Ioredane, e haawi ia makou i ka lima o ka Amora, e make ai makoa? E aho i oluolu makou, e noho ma kela aoao o Ioredane!
8 Excuse me, Lord, but what can I say now that Israel has turned tail and run away from its enemies?
E ko'u Haku, heaha la ka'u e olelo aku ai, i ka wa e huli ai ka Iseraela i ko lakou kua i na enemi o lakou!
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?”
E lohe auanei ko Kanaana, a me ka poe a pau e noho la ma ka aina, a e hoopuni mai lakou ia makou, a e hooki loa lakou i ko makou inoa, mai ka honua aku. Pehea la oe e hana'i i kou inoa nui?
10 But the Lord replied to Joshua, “Stand up! What do you think you're doing lying on your face like that?
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Iosua, E ku mai oe iluna. Heaha la kau e moe nei ilalo ke alo?
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.
Ua lawehala ka Iseraela, ua ae hoi lakou maluna o ka'u berita, a'u i kauoha aku ai ia lakou, a ua lawe hoi lakou i ka mea laa, a ua aihue a ua hoopunipuni hoi, a ua waiho pu no hoi ia mea me ko lakou mea iho.
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.
Nolaila, aole hiki i na mamo a Iseraela, ke ku imua o ko lakou poe enemi, ua huli lakou i ko lakou kua i na enemi o lakou, no ka mea, ua laa lakou; aole loa hoi au e noho pu hou me oukou, ke hoopau ole oukou ia mea laa mai o oukou aku.
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.
E ku iluna, a e hoomaemae i kanaka, a e olelo aku, E hoomaemae oukou ia oukou iho, no ka la apopo; no ka mea, ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o ka Iseraela penei, He mea laa iwaena pono o oukou, e ka Iseraela; aole oukou e hiki ke ku imua o ko oukou enemi a kipaku oukou i kela mea laa, mai o oukou aku.
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.
I ke kakahiaka, e nee mai oukou ma ko oukou ohana; a o ka ohana a Iehova e lawe ai, e neenee mai lakou ma ko lakou hale; a o ka hale a Iehova e lawe ai, e nee mai lakou ma ko lakou ohua; a o ko ka ohua a Iehova e lawe ai, e nee pakahi mai na kanaka.
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.’”
Eia hoi ka hope, O ka mea e loaa me ka mea laa, e puhiia oia i ke ahi, oia, a me kona mea a pau; no ka mea, ua ae oia maluna o ka berita o Iehova, a ua hana i ka mea lapuwale mawaena o ka Iseraela.
16 Joshua got up early the next morning and called Israel forward, tribe by tribe.
Ala mai la o Iosua i ke kakahiaka, a alakai mai la i ka Iseraela ma ko lakou ohana, a ua laweia ka ohana a Iuda:
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.
Alakai mai la ia i ka ohana a Iuda, a laweia iho la ka hale a Zara. A alakai mai la ia i ka hale a Zara, pakahi ke kanaka, a ua laweia o Zabedi:
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.
Alakai pakahi mai la ia i ko kana ohana, a ua laweia o Akana, ke keiki a Karemi, ke keiki a Zabedi, ke keiki a Zera, no ka ohana a Iuda.
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.”
Olelo mai la o Iosua ia Akana, E kuu keiki, e hoomaikai aku oe ia Iehova, i ke Akua o ka Iseraela, a e hai maopopo aku ia ia, a e hoike mai ia'u i ka mea au i hana'i. Mai huna ia'u.
20 “It's true!” Achan replied. “I have sinned against the Lord, the God of Israel. This is what I did.
Pane aku la o Akana ia Iosua, i aku la, Oiaio no, ua hana hewa wau ia. Iehova i ke Akua o ka Iseraela, a penei no hoi ka'u i hana aku ai:
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.”
I ko'u ike ana aku maloko o ka waiwai pio, he aahu maikai no Babulona, a elua haneri paha sekela kala, a me kekahi auka gula, he kanalima sekela, kuko iho la au, a lawe no; a ua hunaia ma ka lepo maloko o ko'u halelewa, a aia ke kala malalo iho o ia mea.
22 Joshua sent men who ran over to search the tent. They found what had been hidden, with the silver buried deeper.
Hoouna aku la o Iosua i mau elele, a holo kiki lakou i ka halelewa; aia hoi, ua hunaia, maloko o ka halelewa, a o ke kala hoi malalo iho.
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.
A lawe lakou i ua mau mea la mawaho o ka halelewa, a lawe mai la io Iosua la, a i na mamo a pau a Iseraela, a halii iho la lakou ia mau mea imua o Iehova.
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.
Lalau aku la o Iosua, a me ka Iseraela a pau ia Akana, i ke keiki a Zera, a me ke kala, a me ka aahu, a me ka auka gula, a me kana mau keikikane, a me kana mau kaikamahine, a me kona mau bipi, a me kona mau hoki, a me kona mau hipa, a me kona halelewa, a me kona mau mea a pau, a lawe ia lakou i ke awawa o Akora.
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.
Olelo aku la o Iosua, No ke aha la oe i hana ino mai ai ia makou? E hana ino mai ana o Iehova ia oe i keia la. A o ka Iseraela a pau, hailuku aku la lakou ia ia i ka pohaku, a pau ko lakou hailuku ana ka pohaku, pupuhiia iho la lakou i ke ahi.
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.
Hoopuu iho la lakou i ahu pohaku maluna ona, a hiki mai i neia la. Alaila huli mai la o Iehova, mai ka wela mai o kona huhu. No ia mea, ua kapaia'ku ka inoa o ia wahi, o ke awawa o Akora a hiki i keia la.
