Joshua 9
1 And when all the Kings that were beyonde Iorden, in the mountaines and in the valleis, and by all the coastes of the great Sea ouer against Lebanon (as the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hiuites, and the Iebusites) heard thereof,
Ie añe, naho fa jinanji’ o mpanjaka iaby alafe’ Iardeney, am-bohibohitse naho am-bavatane ey naho añolo’ i Riake Jabajabay pak’ e Lebanone añeo; i nte-Kete naho i nte-Amore, i nte-Kanàne, i nte-Perizý, i nte-Kivý, vaho i nte-Iebosý;
2 They gathered themselues together, to fight against Ioshua, and against Israel with one accord.
le nikabija, nifañosoñe hialy amy Iehosoa naho am’Israele.
3 But the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Ioshua had done vnto Iericho, and to Ai.
Fe jinanji’ o mpimone’ i Giboneo ty nanoe’ Iehosoa am’ Ieriko naho amy Ay,
4 And therefore they wrought craftily: for they went, and fayned themselues ambassadours, and tooke olde sackes vpon their asses, and olde bottels for wine, both rent and bound vp,
le nikilily famañahiañe: nimb’eo iereo nisare sorotà; ninday voro-gony am-borìke naho kontran-divay toro naho rota nitakefeñe;
5 And olde shoes and clouted vpon their feete: also the raiment vpon them was old, and all their prouision of bread was dried, and mouled.
naho tsoron-kana sinosok’ am-pandia’e naho sikiñe voroboro’e ho saro’ iareo; mbore nimaike vaho nivoravora ty mofo iaby fivati’ iareo.
6 So they came vnto Ioshua into the hoste to Gilgal, and said vnto him, and vnto the men of Israel, Wee be come from a farre countrey: nowe therefore make a league with vs.
Niheo mb’ amy Iehosoa an-tobe e Gilgale ao iereo, nanao ty hoe ama’e naho amo lahilahi’ Israeleo; Boake tsietoitane añe zahay; aa ehe ifañinào.
7 Then the men of Israel said vnto the Hiuites, It may be that thou dwellest among vs, how then can I make a league with thee?
Le hoe ondaty ana’ Israeleo amo nte-Kiveo: Hera t’ie mpimoneñe ama’ay atoy; aa le aia ty hifañinà’ay.
8 And they said vnto Ioshua, We are thy seruants. Then Ioshua saide vnto them, Who are ye? and whence come ye?
Le hoe ty asa’ iareo am’ Iehosoa: Mpitoro’ areo zahay. Le hoe ty nanoe’ Iehosoa: Ia v’inahareo naho boak’aia?
9 And they answered him, From a very farre countrey thy seruants are come for the Name of the Lord thy God: for we haue heard his fame and all that he hath done in Egypt,
Le hoe ty asa’ iareo ama’e: Boake tsietoitane añe o mpitoro’oo t’ie nivotrak’ atoy ty tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areoy; fa jinanji’ay ty enge’e naho ze hene fitoloña’e e Mitsraime ao,
10 And all that he hath done to the two Kings of the Amorites that were beyonde Iorden, to Sihon King of Heshbon, and to Og King of Bashan, which were at Ashtaroth.
naho ze he’e nanoe’e amy mpanjaka roe nte-Amore alafe’ Iardeney añe rey, toe amy Sihone mpanjaka i Khesbone naho amy Oge mpanjaka’ i Basane e Astarote añe.
11 Wherefore our elders, and all the inhabitants of our countrey spake to vs, saying, Take vitailes with you for the iourney, and go to meete them, and say vnto them, Wee are your seruants: now therefore make ye a league with vs.
Aa le nisaontsy ama’ay o mpiaolo’aio naho o fonga mpimoneñe an-tane’aio, nanao ty hoe: Mindesa vaty amy liay, le akia mifañaoña am’ iereo vaho ano am’ iereo ty hoe: Mpitoro’ areo zahay; ie amy zao, ehe ifañinao.
12 This our bread we tooke it hote with vs for vittailes out of our houses, the day we departed to come vnto you: but nowe beholde, it is dried, and it is mouled.
Intoy ty mofo nendese’ay ho vaty ie mbe nimae boak’ añ’ akiba’ay amy andro nionjona’ay hihitrifa’ay mb’ama’ areo mb’ etoay, hehe t’ie maike vaho demodemoke.
13 Also these bottels of wine which we filled, were newe, and lo, they be rent, and these our garments and our shooes are olde, by reason of the exceeding great iourney.
Le nivao o kontran-divay retoa t’ie fineno’ay, ingo te mikoneatse; hehe ka o siki’aio naho o hana’aio, ie fa modo iaby ty amy halavi’ i liay.
14 And the men accepted their tale concerning their vittailes, and counselled not with the mouth of the Lord.
Nangala’ o lahilahio ty vati’ iareo, f’ie tsy nihalaly fanoroañe am-palie’ Iehovà.
15 So Ioshua made peace with them, and made a league with them, that he would suffer them to liue: also the Princes of the Congregation sware vnto them.
Aa le nifampilongo am’ iereo t’Iehosoa vaho nifañina t’ie hengañe ho veloñe le nifanta ama’e ka o roandria’ i valobohòkeio.
16 But at the end of three dayes, after they had made a league with them, they heard that they were their neighbours, and that they dwelt among them.
Ie telo andro añe te nifañina le jinanji’ iareo t’ie mpañohoke naho mpimoneñe añivo’ iareo ao avao.
17 And the children of Israel tooke their iourney, and came vnto their cities the third day, and their cities were Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth and Kiriath-iearim.
Ie nañavelo le nivotrak’ amo rova’ iareoo amy andro faha-teloy o ana’ Israeleo. Ty rova’ iareo: i Gibone, le i Kefirà, i Birote vaho i Kiriate-iearime.
18 And the children of Israel slewe them not, because the Princes of the Congregation had sworne vnto them by the Lord God of Israel: wherefore all the Congregation murmured against the Princes.
Tsy pinao’ o ana’ Israeleo iereo, ty amy nifantà’ o roandria’ i valobohòkeio amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele. Aa le niñeoñeoñe amo roandriañeo i valobohòkey.
19 Then all the Princes said vnto all the Congregation, We haue sworne vnto them by the Lord God of Israel: nowe therefore we may not touch them.
Fe hoe o roandriañeo amy valobohòkey: Fa nifanta’ay amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele; aa le ko paoheñe.
20 But this we wil doe to them, and let them liue, least the wrath be vpon vs because of the othe which we sware vnto them.
Zao ty hanoan-tika: hadoñe ho veloñe; tsy mone ho aman-tika ty haviñerañe, ty amy fanta nifantà’ay am’ iereoy.
21 And the Princes sayd vnto them againe, Let them liue, but they shall hewe wood, and drawe water vnto all the Congregation, as the Princes appoint them.
Le hoe o roandriañeo ty am’ iereo: Angao ho veloñe; le nanoeñe mpamatsi-katae naho mpitari-drano ho a i valobohòkey, ty amy nitaroña’ o roandriañeo.
22 Ioshua then called them, and talked with them, and sayd, Wherefore haue ye beguiled vs, saying, We are very farre from you, when ye dwel among vs?
Kinoi’ Iehosoa, vaho nisaontsie’e ty hoe: Akore ty namañahia’ areo anay ami’ty hoe: Boa-davitse anahareo zahay, ie mpimoneñe añivo’ay atoy avao?
23 Now therefore ye are cursed, and there shall none of you be freed from being bondmen, and hewers of wood, and drawers of water for the house of my God.
Aa le fokom-patse nahareo; nainai’e tsy ho modo t’ie ho mpitoroñe, mpamatsike hatae vaho mpitari-drano ho añ’ anjomban’ Añahareko.
24 And they answered Ioshua, and sayd, Because it was tolde thy seruants, that the Lord thy God had commanded his seruant Moses to giue you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land out of your sight, therefore we were exceeding sore afraid for our liues at the presence of you, and haue done this thing:
Nanoiñe Iehosoa ami’ty hoe iereo; Amy te toe natalily amo mpitoro’oo te linili’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o i mpitoro’e Mosèy te hatolo’e anahareo i tane iabiy le ho mongoreñe aolo’ areo ze fonga mpimone’ i taney, aa le nampirevendreveñe anay o fiai’aio ty ama’ areo; izay ty nanoe’ay o raha zao.
25 And beholde nowe, we are in thine hand: doe as it seemeth good and right in thine eyes to doe vnto vs.
Ie henane zao, ingo, am-pità’o zahay: aa le ano ama’ay ze atao’o soa naho to am-pivazohoa’ areo.
26 Euen so did he vnto them, and deliuered them out of the hand of the children of Israel, that they slewe them not.
Aa le izay ty nanoe’e am’ iereo, vaho rinomba’e am-pità’ o ana’ Israeleo, fa tsy vinono;
27 And Ioshua appointed them that same day to be hewers of wood, and drawers of water for the Congregation, and for the altar of the Lord vnto this day, in the place which he should chuse.
ie nanoe’ Iehosoa mpamatsi-katae naho mpitari-drano amy andro zay ho amy valobohòkey naho ho a i kitreli’ Iehovày ampara henaneo, amy toetse ho joboñe’ey.
