Joshua 6
1 Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in. —
Alò, Jéricho te byen sere pa fis Israël yo. Pèsòn pa t sòti ni antre.
2 And the LORD said unto Joshua: 'See, I have given into thy hand Jericho, and the king thereof, even the mighty men of valour.
SENYÈ a te di a Josué: “Gade, Mwen te livre Jéricho nan men ou, avèk wa li ak gèrye vanyan li yo.
3 And ye shall compass the city, all the men of war, going about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.
Mache antoure vil la avèk tout mesye lagè nou yo pou l tou ansèkle li yon fwa. Ou va fè sa pandan si jou.
4 And seven priests shall bear seven rams' horns before the ark; and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the horns.
Anplis, sèt prèt va pote sèt twonpèt fèt ak kòn belye devan lach la. “Konsa, nan setyèm jou a, nou va mache antoure vil la sèt fwa e prèt yo va soufle twonpèt yo.
5 And it shall be, that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when ye hear the sound of the horn, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall go up every man straight before him.'
Li va vin rive ke lè yo fè yon gwo son avèk kòn belye a, lè nou tande son twonpèt la, tout pèp la va rele fò avèk yon gwo bri; epi miray vil la va tonbe plat e pèp la va monte, chak moun tou dwat.”
6 And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them: 'Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven rams' horns before the ark of the LORD.'
Konsa, Josué, fis la a Nun nan, te rele prèt yo. Li te di yo: “Pran lach akò a, e kite sèt prèt yo pote sèt twonpèt yo fèt avèk kòn belye yo devan lach SENYÈ a.”
7 And he said unto the people: 'Pass on, and compass the city, and let the armed body pass on before the ark of the LORD.'
Yo te di a pèp la: “Ale devan, mache antoure vil la e kite mesye ak zam yo ale devan lach SENYÈ a.”
8 And it was so, that when Joshua had spoken unto the people, the seven priests bearing the seven rams' horns before the LORD passed on, and blew with the horns; and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.
Li te vin rive ke lè Josué te pale avèk pèp la, sèt prèt ki t ap pote sèt twonpèt a kòn belye yo devan SENYÈ a te avanse, e te soufle twonpèt yo, epi lach akò SENYÈ a te swiv yo.
9 And the armed men went before the priests that blew the horns, and the rearward went after the ark, the priests blowing with the horns continually.
Mesye avèk zam yo te ale devan prèt ki tap soufle twonpèt yo, epi gad aryè a te swiv lach la, pandan yo te kontinye ap soufle twonpèt yo.
10 And Joshua commanded the people, saying: 'Ye shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout.'
Men Josué te kòmande pèp la e te di: “Nou pa pou rele, ni kite yo tande vwa nou menm. Ni pa kite yon mo sòti nan bouch nou, jis rive jou ke m di nou: ‘Rele fò!’ Alò, nan moman sa a, nou va rele fò!”
11 So he caused the ark of the LORD to compass the city, going about it once; and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
Konsa, li te fè lach SENYÈ a antoure vil la ansèkle l yon fwa. Konsa, yo te rantre nan kan an, e yo te pase nwit lan la nan kan an.
12 And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the LORD.
Alò, Josué te leve granmmaten, e prèt yo te leve pran lach SENYÈ a.
13 And the seven priests bearing the seven rams' horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually, and blew with the horns; and the armed men went before them; and the rearward came after the ark of the LORD, the priests blowing with the horns continually.
Sèt prèt ki te pote sèt twonpèt kòn belye yo devan lach SENYÈ a, te kontinye san rete e te soufle twonpèt yo. Mesye avèk zam yo te ale devan yo, e gad an aryè yo te swiv lach SENYÈ a, pandan yo te kontinye ap soufle twonpèt yo.
14 And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp; so they did six days.
Konsa, nan dezyèm jou a, yo te mache antoure vil la yon fwa e te retounen nan kan an. Yo te fè konsa pandan si jou.
15 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early at the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times; only on that day they compassed the city seven times.
Alò, nan setyèm jou a, yo te leve bonè avan jou, e te mache antoure vil la menm jan an sèt fwa. Sèl nan jou sa a, yo te mache antoure vil la sèt fwa.
16 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the horns, that Joshua said unto the people: 'Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city.
Nan setyèm fwa a, lè prèt yo te soufle twonpèt yo, Josué te di a pèp la: “Rele fò!” Paske SENYÈ a gen tan bannou vil la.
17 And the city shall be devoted, even it and all that is therein, to the LORD; only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
“Vil la va vin dedye anba ve, li menm avèk tout sa ki ladann se pou SENYÈ a. Sèl Rahab, pwostitiye a ak tout moun ki avè l nan kay la va viv, akoz li te kache mesaje ke nou te voye yo.
18 And ye, in any wise keep yourselves from the devoted thing, lest ye make yourselves accursed by taking of the devoted thing, so should ye make the camp of Israel accursed, and trouble it.
“Men pou nou menm, sèlman kenbe tèt nou apa pou pa fè bagay sa yo ki anba ve pou detwi, pou nou pa anvi yo e pran kèk bagay ki anba ve a, pou fè kay Israël la vin modi pou gwo pwoblèm vin sou li.
19 But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are holy unto the LORD; they shall come into the treasury of the LORD.'
Men tout ajan avèk lò, zafè an bwonz ak fè, sen a SENYÈ a. Yo va antre nan trezò SENYÈ a.”
20 So the people shouted, and the priests blew with the horns. And it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the horn, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
Alò, pèp la te rele fò, prèt yo te soufle twonpèt yo. Lè pèp la te tande son twonpèt la, yo te rele fò avèk yon gwo kri, epi miray la te tonbe plat. Epi konsa, pèp la te antre nan vil la, tout mesye toudwat pou yo te pran vil la.
21 And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, both young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.
Yo te detwi tout bagay nan vil la nèt; ni gason, ni fanm, jèn kon granmoun, ni bèf, ni mouton, ni bourik, pa lam nepe.
22 And Joshua said unto the two men that had spied out the land: 'Go into the harlot's house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye swore unto her.'
Josué te di a de mesye ki te fè espyonaj peyi yo: “Antre lakay pwostitiye a e mete fanm nan avèk tout sa li genyen deyò, jan nou te pwomèt li a.”
23 And the young men the spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had, all her kindred also they brought out; and they set them without the camp of Israel.
Konsa, jennonm ki te espyon yo te antre. Yo te mennen Rahab deyò avèk papa l ak manman l, frè li yo avèk tout sa li te genyen. Anplis, yo te mete deyò tout fanmi li yo e te plase yo deyò kan Israël la.
24 And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein; only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD.
Yo te brile vil la avèk dife ak tout sa ki ladann. Sèlman ajan avèk lò avèk tout bagay ki te fèt an bwonz ak fè, yo te mete yo nan trezò kay SENYÈ a.
25 But Rahab the harlot, and her father's household, and all that she had, did Joshua save alive; and she dwelt in the midst of Israel, unto this day; because she hid the messengers, whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Sepandan, Rahab, pwostitiye a, avèk tout kay papa l ak tout sa li te genyen, Josué te konsève yo. Epi li te viv nan mitan Israël jis rive jodi a, paske li te kache mesaje ke Josué te voye pou fè espyonaj Jéricho yo.
26 And Joshua charged the people with an oath at that time, saying: 'Cursed be the man before the LORD, that riseth up and buildeth this city, even Jericho; with the loss of his first-born shall he lay the foundation thereof, and with the loss of his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.'
Konsa, Josué te pase lòd sèman an nan lè sa a. Li te di: “Modi devan SENYÈ a se sila ki leve pou rebati vil sa a, Jéricho. Avèk pèt premye ne li yo, li va poze fondasyon li; avèk pèt denyè ne li yo, li va monte pòtay li yo.”
27 So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.
SENYÈ a te avèk Josué e li te vin byen rekonèt nan tout peyi a.
