Joshua 7
1 But the children of Israel committed a trespass concerning the devoted thing; for Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took of the devoted thing; and the anger of the LORD was kindled against the children of Israel.
Jo-Israel ne ok obedo jo-ratiro kaluwore gi gik mane owal ni Jehova Nyasaye. Ngʼat mane nyinge Akan wuod Karmi, ma wuod Zabdi, ma wuod Zera, mar dhood Juda nokawo moko kuom gik mane owalgi. Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye nobedo gi mirima gi jo-Israel.
2 And Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is beside Beth-aven, on the east side of Beth-el, and spoke unto them, saying: 'Go up and spy out the land.' And the men went up and spied out Ai.
Kane Joshua ooro ji koa Jeriko mondo odhi Ai, mantiere but Beth Aven yo podho chiengʼ mar Bethel nokonegi niya, “Dhiuru kendo utim nonro ma lingʼ-lingʼ mar gwengʼno.” Omiyo jogo nodhi mi ginono Ai lingʼ-lingʼ.
3 And they returned to Joshua, and said unto him: 'Let not all the people go up; but let about two or three thousand men go up and smite Ai; make not all the people to toil thither; for they are but few.'
Kane gidwogo ir Joshua, negiwachone niya, “Ji duto ok onego dhi kedo gi jo-Ai. To or ji alufu ariyo kata adek mondo odhi okawe kendo kik oket ji obed mool nikech nitiere mana ji manok kuno.”
4 So there went up thither of the people about three thousand men; and they fled before the men of Ai.
Omiyo ji madirom alufu adek ema nodhi, to jo-Ai noriembogi,
5 And the men of Ai smote of them about thirty and six men; and they chased them from before the gate even unto Shebarim, and smote them at the descent; and the hearts of the people melted, and became as water.
mi ji madirom piero adek gauchiel nonegi. Ne giriembo jo-Israel koa e dhoranga dala maduongʼ nyaka kama nitiere kite mopa kendo neginegogi e holo. Mano nomiyo kihondko nogoyogi ma gipodho.
6 And Joshua rent his clothes, and fell to the earth upon his face before the ark of the LORD until the evening, he and the elders of Israel; and they put dust upon their heads.
Bangʼe Joshua noyiecho lepe mi opodho auma e nyim Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye, moriyo kanyo nyaka odhiambo. Jodong Israel bende notimo kamano kendo ne giolo buru e wigi.
7 And Joshua said: 'Alas, O Lord GOD, wherefore hast Thou at all brought this people over the Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to cause us to perish? would that we had been content and dwelt beyond the Jordan!
Joshua nowacho niya, “Yaye, Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, ere gima omiyo isekelo jogi loka mar aora Jordan mana ni mondo ichiwgi e lwet jo-Amor mondo itiekgi? Mad ne gik mane wan-go loka cha romwa kendo wasik kuno!
8 Oh, Lord, what shall I say, after that Israel hath turned their backs before their enemies!
Yaye, Ruoth Nyasaye, en angʼo ma dwawachi ka jo-Israel oseriemb gi wasikgi kama?
9 For when the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land hear of it, they will compass us round, and cut off our name from the earth; and what wilt Thou do for Thy great name?'
Jo-Kanaan gi jopinyni mamoko biro winjo kuom wachni kendo gibiro monjowa mi gitiekwa e pinyni. Angʼo ma nitim mondo ires nyingi maduongʼni?”
10 And the LORD said unto Joshua: 'Get thee up; wherefore, now, art thou fallen upon thy face?
Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ni Joshua niya, “Chungʼ malo! Angʼo ma ikulone wiyi piny ka?
11 Israel hath sinned; yea, they have even transgressed My covenant which I commanded them; yea, they have even taken of the devoted thing; and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and they have even put it among their own stuff.
Jo-Israel osetimo richo, kendo giseketho singruokna mane achikogi mondo giriti. Gisekawo bath gik moko mane owal, gisekwalo, giseriambo, kendo gisekawo gigo mokwer ma giriwo gi gig-gi giwegi.
12 Therefore the children of Israel cannot stand before their enemies, they turn their backs before their enemies, because they are become accursed; I will not be with you any more, except ye destroy the accursed from among you.
Mano emomiyo jo-Israel ok nyal loyo wasikgi; giloko ngʼegi kendo giringo nikech oseketgi gir kethruok. Ok anabed kodu makmana ka uketho gigo manie dieru mowal ni kethruok.
13 Up, sanctify the people, and say: Sanctify yourselves against tomorrow; for thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: There is a curse in the midst of thee, O Israel; thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye take away the accursed thing from among you.
“Aa malo mondo inyis jo-Israel opwodhre kinyisogi ni, ‘Pwodhreuru kuikoru ni odiechiengʼ ma kiny nikech Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel wacho kama: Gik mowal ne Jehova Nyasaye nitie e dieru, yaye Israel, omiyo kapod ok ugolo gigo kuomu, to ok unulo wasiku.
14 In the morning therefore ye shall draw near by your tribes; and it shall be, that the tribe which the LORD taketh shall come near by families; and the family which the LORD shall take shall come near by households; and the household which the LORD shall take shall come near man by man.
“‘Wuoguru gokinyi dhoot ka dhoot. Dhoot ma Jehova Nyasaye noyier biro biro e nyime anywola ka anywola, to anywola ma Jehova Nyasaye noyier biro biro e nyime dala ka dala, kendo dala ma Jehova Nyasaye noyier biro biro e nyime ngʼato ka ngʼato.
15 And it shall be that he that is taken with the devoted thing shall be burnt with fire, he and all that he hath; because he hath transgressed the covenant of the LORD, and because he hath wrought a wanton deed in Israel.'
Ngʼatno mani maki gi gigo mowal notieki gi mach, kaachiel gi gige duto, nikech oseketho singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo osetimo gima mono e piny Israel!’”
16 So Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel near by their tribes; and the tribe of Judah was taken.
Kinyne gokinyi mangʼich Joshua noluongo jo-Israel gi dhoutgi, kendo Juda noyier.
17 And he brought near the family of Judah; and he took the family of the Zerahites. And he brought near the family of the Zerahites man by man; and Zabdi was taken.
Anywola mar Juda nobiro, mi oyier joka Zera. Joka Zera nobiro ot ka ot mi od Zabdi ema noyier.
18 And he brought near his household man by man; and Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken.
Kane ogolo ngʼato ka ngʼato kuom joka Zabdi, to Akan wuod Karmi, ma wuod Zimri, ma wuod Zera mar dhood Juda ema noyier.
19 And Joshua said unto Achan: 'My son, give, I pray thee, glory to the LORD, the God of Israel, and make confession unto Him; and tell me now what thou hast done; hide nothing from me.'
Bangʼ mano, Joshua nowachone Akan niya, “Wuoda, mi Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel duongʼ gi pak. Nyisa gima isetimo kendo kik ipanda.”
20 And Achan answered Joshua, and said: 'Of a truth I have sinned against the LORD, the God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done.
Akan nodwoke niya, “En adier! Asetimone Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel richo. Ma e gima asetimo:
21 When I saw among the spoil a goodly Shinar mantle, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels weight, then I coveted them, and took them; and, behold, they are hid in the earth in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.'
Kane aneno gik miketho kaka njora maber moa Babulon, gi fedha ma pekne dirom kilo ariyo, to gi dhahabu ma pekne oromo nus kilo, to chunya nogombogi mi akawogi kendo apandogi e bwo lowo ei hemba ka fedha ema oket piny mogik.”
22 So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent; and, behold, it was hid in his tent, and the silver under it.
Omiyo Joshua nooro joote mi giringo e hema kendo ne giyudogi mana kaka gin, kopandgi e hembe, ka fedha ema oket piny mogik.
23 And they took them from the midst of the tent, and brought them unto Joshua, and unto all the children of Israel; and they laid them down before the LORD.
Negigolo gigo koa e hema, mi gikelogi ni Joshua kod jo-Israel duto kendo gipedhogi oko e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
24 And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the mantle, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had; and they brought them up unto the valley of Achor.
Bangʼ mano Joshua, kaachiel gi jo-Israel duto nokawo Akan ma nyakwar Zera, gi fedha, gi njora, gi dhahabu, yawuote kod nyige, dhok, punde kod rombe, hembe kod gigo duto ma en godo mi giterogi nyaka e holo mar Akor.
25 And Joshua said: 'Why hast thou troubled us? the LORD shall trouble thee this day.' And all Israel stoned him with stones; and they burned them with fire, and stoned them with stones.
Joshua nowacho niya, “Angʼo momiyo isekelo masira machal kama kuomwa? In bende Jehova Nyasaye biro keloni masira.” Bangʼe jo-Israel duto nochielo Akan kod joge gi kite, kendo ne giwangʼe kaachiel gi joge.
26 And they raised over him a great heap of stones, unto this day; and the LORD turned from the fierceness of His anger. Wherefore the name of that place was called The valley of Achor, unto this day.
Bangʼ mano ne gidhuro kite kuom Akan, ma mano pod ni kamano nyaka chil kawuono. Eka mirima mar Jehova Nyasaye norumo. Kuom mano kanyo pod iluongo ni Holo mar Akor nyaka chil kawuono.
