< Joshua 5 >
1 Nowe when all the Kings of the Amorites, which were beyond Iorden Westward, and all the Kinges of the Canaanites which were by the Sea, heard that the Lord had dried vp the waters of Iorden before the children of Israel vntill they were gone ouer, their heart fainted: and there was no courage in them any more because of the children of Israel.
Na rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa athamaki othe a Aamori arĩa maarĩ kũu mwena wa ithũĩro wa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani, na athamaki othe a andũ a Kaanani arĩa maarĩ kũu ndwere-inĩ cia iria maiguire ũrĩa Jehova aahũithĩtie maaĩ ma Jorodani mbere ya andũ a Isiraeli nginya tũkĩrĩĩkia kũringa mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ, ngoro ciao ikĩiyũrwo nĩ guoya, na matiacookire kũgĩa na ũũmĩrĩru wa kũngʼethanĩra na andũ a Isiraeli.
2 That same time the Lord said vnto Ioshua, Make thee sharpe kniues, and returne, and circumcise the sonnes of Israel the second time.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova akĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ, “Thondeka tũhiũ twa mahiga ma nyaigĩ, ũroke kwerũhia ũhoro wa irua harĩ andũ a Isiraeli.”
3 Then Ioshua made him sharpe kniues and circumcised the sonnes of Israel in the hill of the foreskinnes.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joshua agĩthondeka tũhiũ twa mahiga ma nyaigĩ na akĩruithia arũme a Isiraeli kũu Gibeathi-Haaralothu.
4 And this is the cause why Ioshua circumcised all the people, euen the males that came out of Egypt, because all the men of warre were dead in the wildernesse by the way after they came out of Egypt.
Na rĩrĩ, kĩrĩa gĩatũmire Joshua aruithanie nĩ rĩĩrĩ: arũme arĩa othe mooimire bũrũri wa Misiri, o acio othe maakinyĩtie mĩaka ya gũthiĩ mbaara-rĩ, nĩmakuĩrĩire werũ-inĩ marĩ rũgendo-inĩ thuutha wa kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri.
5 For all the people that came out were circumcised: but all the people that were borne in the wildernes by the way after they came out of Egypt, were not circumcised.
Arũme othe arĩa mooimire bũrũri wa Misiri nĩmaruĩte, no andũ othe arĩa maaciarĩirwo werũ-inĩ marĩ rũgendo-inĩ rwa kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri matiaruĩte.
6 For the children of Israel walked fourtie yeres in the wildernes, till all the people of the men of warre that came out of Egypt were consumed, because they obeyed not the voyce of the Lord: vnto whome the Lord sware, that he would not shewe them the lande, which the Lord had sworne vnto their fathers, that he would giue vs, euen a land that floweth with milke and hony.
Andũ a Isiraeli moorũũrire werũ-inĩ mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna nginya rĩrĩa andũ othe arĩa maakinyĩtie mĩaka ya gũthiĩ mbaara rĩrĩa moimaga bũrũri wa Misiri maakuire, tondũ nĩmaregire gwathĩkĩra Jehova. Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩameerire na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ matikoona bũrũri ũrĩa eerĩire maithe mao na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩagatũhe, bũrũri ũrĩ bũthi wa iria na ũũkĩ.
7 So their sonnes whome he raysed vp in their steade, Ioshua circumcised: for they were vncircumcised, because they circumcised them not by the way.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩarahũra ariũ ao ithenya rĩao, na acio nĩo maaruithirio nĩ Joshua. Maakoretwo matarĩ aruu nĩ ũndũ matiaruithĩtio marĩ rũgendo-inĩ.
8 And when they had made an ende of circumcising al the people, they abode in the places in the campe till they were whole.
Na rĩrĩa maarĩkirie kũruithia arũme a rũrĩrĩ rũu ruothe, magĩikara o kũu maakĩte kambĩ-inĩ o nginya andũ acio makĩhona.
9 After, the Lord said vnto Ioshua, This day I haue taken away the shame of Egypt from you: wherefore he called the name of that place Gilgal, vnto this day.
Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ nĩguo ndeheria rũmena rwa andũ a Misiri kuuma kũrĩ inyuĩ.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio handũ hau hagĩĩtwo Giligali nginya ũmũthĩ.
10 So the children of Israel abode in Gilgal, and kept ye feast of the Passeouer the fourteenth day of the moneth at euen in ye plaine of Iericho.
Hwaĩ-inĩ wa mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩna wa mweri ũcio, o maambĩte hema kũu Giligali werũ-inĩ wa Jeriko, andũ a Isiraeli magĩkũngũĩra Gĩathĩ kĩa Bathaka.
11 And they did eat of the corne of the land, on the morow after the Passeouer, vnleauened breade, and parched corne in the same day.
Mũthenya ũrĩa warũmĩrĩire Bathaka-rĩ, mũthenya oro ũcio, makĩrĩa maciaro mamwe ma bũrũri ũcio; mĩgate ĩtarĩ mĩĩkĩre ndawa ya kũimbia, na ngano hĩhie.
12 And the MAN ceased on the morowe after they had eaten of the corne of the land, neither had the children of Israel MAN any more, but did eate of the fruite of the land of Canaan that yeere.
Maarĩa irio cia bũrũri ũcio-rĩ, mana makĩrooka kwaga mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ; andũ a Isiraeli matiacookire kuona mana rĩngĩ, no rĩrĩ, mwaka ũcio nĩmarĩire maciaro ma Kaanani.
13 And when Ioshua was by Iericho, he lift vp his eyes and looked: and behold, there stood a man against him, hauing a sword drawen in his hand: and Ioshua went vnto him, and said vnto him, Art thou on our side, or on our aduersaries?
Rĩrĩa Joshua aarĩ hakuhĩ na Jeriko, agĩtiira maitho akĩona mũndũ warũgamĩte mbere yake acomorete rũhiũ njora, akarũnyiita na guoko. Nake Joshua agĩthiĩ o harĩa aarĩ, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee-rĩ, ũrĩ mwena witũ kana ũrĩ mwena wa thũ ciitũ?”
14 And he said, Nay, but as a captaine of the host of the Lord am I nowe come: then Ioshua fel on his face to the earth, and did worship, and saide vnto him, What sayth my Lord vnto his seruant?
Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ndirĩ mwena wanyu o na kana wa thũ cianyu, no njũkĩte ndĩ mũnene wa mbũtũ ya ita rĩa Jehova.” Nake Joshua akĩĩgũithia, agĩturumithia ũthiũ thĩ, akĩhooya, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee, Mwathi wakwa, nĩ ndũmĩrĩri ĩrĩkũ ũkwenda kũũhe niĩ ndungata yaku?”
15 And the captaine of ye Lords host said vnto Ioshua, Loose thy shoe of thy foote: for ye place wheron thou standest, is holy: and Ioshua did so.
Nake mũnene ũcio wa mbũtũ ya ita rĩa Jehova agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Amba ũrute iraatũ ciaku magũrũ, nĩgũkorwo handũ hau ũrũgamĩte nĩ haamũre.” Nake Joshua agĩĩka o ta ũguo.
