< Joshua 6 >

1 NOW Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
In pacl se inge mutunpot Jericho kaul na ke sripen mwet Israel inge. Wangin mwet oatui, ac wangin mwet utyak nu we.
2 And the Lord said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Liye, nga ac sot acn Jericho nu inpoum, wi pacna tokosra ac mwet mweun watwen lun acn we.
3 And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.
Kom ac mwet mweun lom in fahsr rauneak acn we pacl se ke len se. Oru ouinge ke len onkosr.
4 And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams’ horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.
Sap mwet tol itkosr in fahsr meet liki Tuptup in Wuleang ac us mwe ukuk orekla ke koen kosro. Ke len se akitkosr kowos fahsr rauni pacl itkosr, ac mwet tol elos in uk mwe ukuk natulos an.
5 And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him.
Kowos fin lohng pacl se elos ukya mwe ukuk natulos ke sie pusra na loes, na mwet nukewa in sala ke sie pusra lulap, na pot uh ac fah raki, ac mwet nukewa fah utyak nu in siti sac.”
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 trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord.
Ouinge Joshua el pangoneni mwet tol uh ac fahk nu selos, “Srukak Tuptup in Wuleang, ac itkosr mwet tol an in fahsr meet liki ac us mwe ukuk natulos.”
7 And he said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of the Lord.
Na el fahk nu sin mwet ah, “Fahsr, rauni siti an, ac ekasr mwet mweun an in fahsr meet liki Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD.”
8 And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams’ horns passed on before the Lord, and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of the Lord followed them.
Ke Joshua el fahkla ma inge nu sin mwet ah, na mwet tol itkosr ma utuk mwe ukuk ah fahsryak ac uk mwe ukuk natulos, ac Tuptup in Wuleang fahsr tokolos.
9 And the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets, and the rereward came after the ark, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.
Kutu sin mwet mweun fahsr meet liki mwet tol su uk mwe ukuk natulos uh, ac mwet mweun lula ah elos fahsr tukun Tuptup sac. In pacl se inge mwe ukuk ah nuna ukuk na.
10 And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout.
Tusruktu Joshua el fahkang nu sin mwet uh, “Nimet kowos sasa ku wowon. Nimet kaskas nwe ke na len se nga fahk mu kowos in sala. In pacl sacn na kowos tufah sala!”
11 So the ark of the Lord compassed the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
Na el sap Tuptup in Wuleang in utuk rauneak siti ah ke pacl se. Na mwet uh folokla nu in lohm nuknuk selos ac mongla ke fong sac.
12 And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord.
Joshua el toang ngutalik ke len se tok ah, ac mwet tol elos srukak Tuptup in Wuleang sac.
13 And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord went on continually, and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; but the rereward came after the ark of the Lord, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.
Mwet tol itkosr ma us mwe ukuk itkosr ah fahsryak ac fahsr meet liki Tuptup sac ac uk mwe ukuk natulos. Kutu mwet mweun ah fahsr meet liki Tuptup sac ac kutu toko. In pacl se inge, mwe ukuk ah na ukuk na.
14 And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.
Ouinge ke len se akluo ah elos rauneak pac siti sac pacl se, na elos folokla nu lohm nuknuk selos. Elos oru na ouinge ke len onkosr.
15 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about 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.
Len se akitkosr ah elos ngutalik ke srakna toang ac fahsr rauni siti sac pacl itkosr oana ke elos oru meet ah, sayen ke len se akitkosr elos raun pacl itkosr.
16 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the Lord hath given you the city.
Ke mwet tol elos ukya mwe ukuk ah ke raun se akitkosr ah, Joshua el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Sala, tuh LEUM GOD El asot nu suwos siti se inge!
17 And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are 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.
Siti sac ac ma nukewa loac ac fah kunausyukla. Rahab, mutan kosro sac, ac mwet nukewa in lohm sel elos mukena ac fah tia anwuki mweyen el tuh okanla mwet kalngeyuk su kut supwala nu we ah.
18 And ye, in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest ye make yourselves accursed, when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.
Tusruk karinginkowosyang tuh kowos in tia srukak kutena ma fal in kunausyukla. Kowos fin srukak, na kowos ac fah sang mwata nu fin mwet Israel nukewa.
19 But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto the Lord: they shall come into the treasury of the Lord.
Gold ac silver, ac ma orek ke osra bronze ac iron nukewa ac fah srisrila nu sin LEUM GOD. Ma inge fah utukla nu ke nien filma lun LEUM GOD.”
20 So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
Pacl se ma mwe ukuk uh kasla mwet nukewa sala, ac ke pusren ukuk ah kasla ac mwet uh sala, na pot uh mukukla; oru mwet nukewa yuyang ac eisla siti sac.
21 And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.
Elos onela ma nukewa ke cutlass — mukul, mutan, tulik, mwet matu ac kain in kosro nukewa in siti sac.
22 But Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot’s house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye sware unto her.
Joshua el fahk nu sin mwet luo ma tuh som kalngeyuk in siti sac, “Fahla nu in lohm sin mutan kosro sac ac usalu, wi mwet nukewa in lohm sel an, in fal nu ke wulela lomtal nu sel.”
23 And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel.
Ouinge, mwet luo ah som ac usalu Rahab, papa tumal, nina kial, tamulel wial ac mwet nukewa in lohm sel. Elos use nufon mwet in sou lal, ac oakelosi in sie acn sisken acn mwet Israel elos muta we.
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.
Na elos esukak siti sac nufon ac ma nukewa ma oan loac. Tusruktu gold ac silver ac ma orekla ke bronze ac iron nukewa utukla nu nien filma lun LEUM GOD.
25 And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father’s household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel even unto this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Tusruktu Joshua el molella Rahab, mutan kosro sac, wi sou lal nukewa, mweyen Rahab el tuh okanla mwet kalngeyuk luo ah; na sou sac elos srakna muta inmasrlon mwet Israel nwe misenge.
26 And Joshua adjured them at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before the Lord, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.
Ke pacl sac Joshua el orala sie fulahk ac fahk, “Kutena mwet fin srike in sifil musaeak siti Jericho, el ac fah selngawiyuk sin LEUM GOD. Mwet se fin sifil oakiya pwelung lun siti uh, Wen se oemeet natul ac fah misa. Mwet se fin musai mutunpot lun siti uh, Wen se oetok natul ac fah misa.”
27 So the Lord was with Joshua; and his fame was noised throughout all the country.
Ouinge LEUM GOD El welul Joshua, ac pweng kacl fahsrelik nu fin facl sac nufon.
