< Joshua 8 >

1 After, the Lord saide vnto Ioshua, Feare not, neither bee thou faint hearted: take all the men of warre with thee and arise, go vp to Ai: beholde, I haue giuen into thine hand the King of Ai, and his people, and his citie, and his land.
Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Kada ka ji tsoro; kada ka karaya. Ka ɗauki dukan sojojin ku kai wa Ai hari, gama na ba ka nasara a kan sarkin Ai, mutanensa, birninsa da kuma ƙasarsa.
2 And thou shalt doe to Ai and to the King thereof, as thou didst vnto Iericho and to the King thereof: neuerthelesse the spoyle thereof and the cattell thereof shall ye take vnto you for a praye: thou shalt lye in wait against the citie on the backside thereof.
Za ku yi wa Ai yadda kuka yi wa Yeriko da sarkinta, sai dai za ku kwashe ganima da dabbobinta su zama naku. Ku yi kwanto a bayan birnin.”
3 Then Ioshua arose, and all the men of warre to goe vp against Ai: and Ioshua chose out thirtie thousand strong men, and valiant, and sent them away by night.
Yoshuwa da dukan sojojin suka fita su kai wa Ai hari. Sai ya zaɓi sojojinsa waɗanda suka fi saura duka iya yaƙi guda dubu talatin, ya tura su da dad dare
4 And he commanded them, saying, Behold, yee shall lye in waite against the citie on the backeside of the citie: goe not very farre from the citie, but be ye all in a readinesse.
ya ba su umarni ya ce, “Ku ji da kyau, za ku yi kwanto a bayan birnin, kada ku yi nisa da birnin. Kowannenku yă kasance a faɗake.
5 And I and all the people that are with me, will approche vnto the citie: and when they shall come out against vs, as they did at the first time, then will we flee before them.
Ni da waɗanda suke tare da ni za mu nufi birnin, a lokacin da mutanen suka taso mana yadda suka yi dā, sai mu guje musu.
6 For they wil come out after vs, till we haue brought them out of the citie: for they will say, They flee before vs as at the first time: so we will flee before them.
Za su bi mu har su yi nisa da birnin, gama za su ce, ‘Suna gudu kamar yadda suka yi dā.’ Saboda haka lokacin da muka guje musu,
7 Then you shall rise vp from lying in waite and destroy the citie: for the Lord your God wil deliuer it into your hand.
sai ku tashi daga inda kuka yi kwanto, ku ci birnin da yaƙi, Ubangiji Allahnku zai ba da shi a hannunku.
8 And when ye haue taken the citie, ye shall set it on fire: according to the commandement of the Lord shall ye do: behold, I haue charged you.
Lokacin da kuka ƙwace birnin, sai ku sa masa wuta. Ku yi abin da Ubangiji ya umarta. Ku tabbata kun yi abubuwan da na ce.”
9 Ioshua then sent them foorth, and they went to lye in waite, and abode betweene Beth-el and Ai, on the Westside of Ai: but Ioshua lodged that night among the people.
Sai Yoshuwa ya sallame su, suka kuma tafi wurin da za su yi kwanto, suka kwanta suna fako tsakanin Betel da Ai, yamma da Ai, amma Yoshuwa ya kwana tare da mutanen.
10 And Ioshua rose vp early in the morning, and nombred the people: and he and the Elders of Israel went vp before the people against Ai.
Kashegari da sassafe Yoshuwa ya tattara mutanensa, sai shi da shugabannin Isra’ilawa suka sha gaba suka taka zuwa Ai.
11 Also all the men of warre that were with him went vp and drewe neere, and came against the citie, and pitched on the Northside of Ai: and there was a valley betweene them and Ai.
Dukan sojojin da suke tare da shi suka nufi birnin, da suka kai kuwa sai suka kafa sansaninsu a arewancin Ai. Tsakaninsu da Ai akwai kwari.
12 And hee tooke about fiue thousande men, and set them to lye in waite betweene Beth-el and Ai, on the Westside of the citie.
Yoshuwa ya sa mutum dubu biyar suka yi kwanto tsakanin Betel da Ai, a yammancin birnin.
13 And the people set all the hoste that was on the Northside against the citie, and the liers in waite on the West, against the citie: and Ioshua went the same night into the mids of the valley.
Mutanen suka kafa sansaninsu arewa da birnin, sansani na’yan kwanto kuwa yana yamma da birnin, amma Yoshuwa ya kwana a kwarin.
14 And when the King of Ai sawe it, then the men of the citie hasted and rose vp earely, and went out against Israel to battell, hee and all his people at the time appointed, before the plaine: for he knew not that any lay in waite against him on the backeside of the citie.
Sa’ad da sarkin Ai ya ga haka, shi da duk mutanen birnin suka hanzarta da sassafe don su gamu da Isra’ilawa, su yi yaƙi da su a wani wurin da yake fuskantar Araba. Amma bai san cewa an yi masa kwanto a bayan birnin ba.
15 Then Ioshua and all Israel as beaten before them, fled by the way of the wildernes.
Yoshuwa da duk Isra’ilawa suka bari aka fafare su, sai suka gudu zuwa cikin jeji.
16 And all the people of the citie were called together, to pursue after them: and they pursued after Ioshua, and were drawen away out of the city,
Aka kira duk mazan Ai su fafare su, suka kuwa fafari Yoshuwa, aka yaudare su suka yi nisa da birnin.
17 So that there was not a man left in Ai, nor in Beth-el, that went not out after Israel: and they left the citie open, and pursued after Israel.
Ba namijin da ya rage a Ai ko Betel da bai fita don yă fafari Isra’ilawa ba. Suka bar birnin a buɗe, suka tafi fafarar Isra’ilawa.
18 Then the Lord said vnto Ioshua, Stretch out the speare that is in thine hande, towarde Ai: for I wil giue it into thine hand: and Ioshua stretched out the speare that hee had in his hand, toward the citie.
Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Ka riƙe māshin da yake hannunka ka nuna wajen Ai, gama zan ba da birnin a hannunka.” Yoshuwa kuwa ya miƙa māshin ta wajen Ai.
19 And they that lay in wait, arose quickly out of their place, and ranne as soone as he had stretched out his hand, and they entred into the citie, and tooke it, and hasted, and set the citie on fire.
Da yin haka kuwa sai mutanen da suka yi kwanto suka tashi nan da nan daga inda suke, suka nufi birnin a guje, suka shiga suka ci birnin da yaƙi, suka kuma cinna mata wuta da sauri.
20 And the men of Ai looked behinde them, and sawe it: for loe, the smoke of the citie ascended vp to heauen, and they had no power to flee this way or that way: for the people that fled to the wildernesse, turned backe vpon the pursuers.
Mutanen Ai suka juya suka ga hayaƙin birninsu yana tashi sama, amma ba yadda za su iya tsira ta ko’ina, gama Isra’ilawan da suke gudu zuwa cikin jeji suka juya suka fara fafarar waɗanda suke fafararsu.
21 When Ioshua and all Israel sawe that they that lay in waite, had taken the citie, and that the smoke of the citie mounted vp, then they turned againe and slewe the men of Ai.
Lokacin da Yoshuwa da dukan Isra’ilawa suka ga waɗanda suka yi kwanto sun ci birnin da yaƙi, hayaƙi kuwa ya cika birnin, sai suka juya suka kai wa mutanen Ai hari.
22 Also the other issued out of the citie against them: so were they in the middes of Israel, these being on the one side, and the rest on the other side: and they slewe them, so that they let none of them remaine nor escape.
Mutanen da suka yi kwanto su ma suka fito daga birnin suka tasar musu, ya zama an kama su a tsakiya, ga Isra’ilawa daga kowane gefe. Isra’ilawa kuwa suka karkashe su duka ba su bar wani da rai ba, ba kuma wanda ya tsere.
23 And the King of Ai they tooke aliue, and brought him to Ioshua.
Amma suka tafi da sarkin Ai da rai suka kawo shi wurin Yoshuwa.
24 And when Israel had made an ende of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the fielde, that is, in the wildernesse, where they chased them, and when they were all fallen on the edge of the sworde, vntill they were consumed, all the Israelites returned vnto Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sworde.
Da Isra’ilawa suka gama kashe duk mutanen Ai a filaye da kuma a cikin jeji inda suka fafare su, kuma da aka karkashe kowane mutumin Ai da takobi sai dukan Isra’ilawa suka koma Ai suka karkashe duk waɗanda suke cikinsa.
25 And all that fell that day, both of men and women, were twelue thousande, euen all the men of Ai.
A ranan nan, dukan mutanen Ai da aka kashe, mutum dubu goma sha biyu ne maza da mata.
26 For Ioshua drewe not his hande backe againe which he had stretched out with the speare, vntill hee had vtterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai.
Gama Yoshuwa bai janye hannunsa da yake riƙe da māshinsa ba har sai da ya hallaka dukan mazaunan Ai.
27 Onely the cattell and the spoyle of this citie, Israel tooke for a praye vnto themselues, according vnto the worde of the Lord, which hee commanded Ioshua.
Amma Isra’ilawa suka kwashe ganima da dabbobin birnin nan yadda Ubangiji ya umarci Yoshuwa.
28 And Ioshua burnt Ai, and made it an heape for euer, and a wildernes vnto this day.
Yoshuwa kuwa ya ƙone Ai, ya mai da ita tarin ƙasa, ta zama kufai har wa yau.
29 And the King of Ai hee hanged on a tree, vnto the euening. And as soone as the sunne was down, Ioshua commanded that they should take his carkeis downe from the tree, and cast it at the entring of ye gate of the city, and lay thereon a great heape of stones, that remaineth vnto this day.
Ya rataye sarkin Ai a kan itace, ya bar shi a can har yamma. Da rana ta fāɗi, Yoshuwa ya umarta a ɗauke gawar sarkin a jefa a gaban ƙofar birnin. Suka kuma tara manyan duwatsu a kan gawar, tsibin na nan har wa yau.
30 Then Ioshua built an altar vnto the Lord God of Israel, in mount Ebal,
Yoshuwa kuwa ya yi wa Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila bagade a Dutsen Ebal,
31 As Moses the seruant of the Lord had commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the booke of the Lawe of Moses, an altar of whole stone, ouer which no man had lift an yron: and they offered thereon burnt offrings vnto the Lord, and sacrificed peace offerings.
kamar yadda Musa bawan Ubangiji ya umarci Isra’ilawa. Ya gina bisa ga abin da yake a rubuce a cikin Littafin Dokoki na Musa, bagade na duwatsun da ba a sassaƙa su ba, waɗanda ba wani ƙarfen da ya taɓa su. Suka miƙa wa Ubangiji hadayu na ƙonawa da hadayu na salama a kai.
32 Also he wrote there vpon the stones, a rehearsall of the Lawe of Moses, which he wrote in the presence of the children of Israel.
A can, a gaban Isra’ilawa, Yoshuwa ya rubuta dokokin Musa a kan duwatsun.
33 And all Israel (and their Elders, and officers and their iudges stoode on this side of the Arke, and on that side, before the Priestes of the Leuites, which bare the Arke of the couenant of the Lord) as well the stranger, as he that is borne in the countrey: halfe of them were ouer against mount Gerizim, and halfe of them ouer against mount Ebal, as Moses the seruant of the Lord had commanded before, that they should blesse the people of Israel.
Sai Isra’ilawa duka, da baƙi, da haifaffun gida, da dattawansu, da shugabanninsu, da alƙalansu, suka tsaya a gefe-gefen akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji, suna fuskantar waɗanda suke ɗauke da shi, wato, firistoci waɗanda su ne Lawiyawa. Rabin mutanen suka tsaya a gaban Dutsen Gerizim, rabinsu kuma suka tsaya a gaban Dutsen Ebal, kamar yadda Musa bawan Ubangiji ya riga ya umarta, cewa su sa wa mutanen Isra’ilawa albarka.
34 Then afterwarde hee read all the wordes of the Lawe, the blessings and cursings, according to all that is written in the booke of the Lawe.
Bayan haka, Yoshuwa ya karanta duk abin da yake a cikin Dokoki, albarku da la’anoni, kamar yadda suke a rubuce a cikin Littafin Dokoki.
35 There was not a worde of all that Moses had commanded, which Ioshua read not before all the Congregation of Israel, as well before the women and the children, as the stranger that was conuersant among them.
Babu wata kalmar da Musa ya umarta da Yoshuwa bai karanta wa dukan taron Isra’ilawa ba, haɗe da mata, da yara, da baƙin da suke zama tare da su.
