Joshua 2
1 And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two men to spy secretly, saying, Go view the land, even Jericho. And they went, and came into an harlot’s house, named Rahab, and lodged there.
Na Joshua el supwala mwet luo liki acn Shittim in lukma, tuh elos in kalngeyuk in acn Canaan, yokna ke siti Jericho. Ke elos sun siti sac, elos utyak nu in lohm sin sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal, tuh elos in mongla we ke fong sac. Inen mutan sac pa Rahab.
2 And it was told the king of Jericho, saying, Behold, there came men in hither to night of the children of Israel to search out the country.
Tokosra lun Jericho el lohngak lah oasr mwet Israel tuku in fong sac in kalngeyuk in acn Canaan,
3 And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying, Bring forth the men that are come to thee, which are entered into thine house: for they be come to search out all the country.
na el sapla nu sel Rahab ac fahk, “Mwet ma tuku nu in lohm sum an ingan elos tuku in kalngei facl se inge! Supwaltalma!”
4 And the woman took the two men, and hid them, and said thus, There came men unto me, but I wist not whence they [were: ]
A mutan sac el tuh usla mwet luo ac okanultalla. Na el fahk, “Pwaye oasr mwet tuku nu lohm uh, tuh nga tia etu lah elos tuku oya me.
5 And it came to pass [about the time] of shutting of the gate, when it was dark, that the men went out: whither the men went I wot not: pursue after them quickly; for ye shall overtake them.
Tusruk elos som meet liki kauli mutunpot lun siti uh ke eku. Nga tia pac etu lah elos som nu oya. Kowos fin sa ukwalos kowos ku in sonolos.”
6 But she had brought them up to the roof of the house, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order upon the roof.
Sruhk el usalosyak okanulosla ye kahp in sak flax ma el filiya fin mangon lohm sel ah.
7 And the men pursued after them the way to Jordan unto the fords: and as soon as they which pursued after them were gone out, they shut the gate.
Ke mwet lun tokosra inge illa in ukwe mwet luo ah, na mutunpot ah kauli. Elos ukwe mwet kalngeyuk luo ah nwe ke elos sun sisken Infacl Jordan.
8 And before they were laid down, she came up unto them upon the roof;
Meet liki mwet kalngeyuk luo ah motulla in fong sac, Rahab el fanyak nu yoroltal nu fin lohm ah.
9 And she said unto the men, I know that the LORD hath given you the land, and that your terror is fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land faint because of you.
El fahk nu seltal, “Nga etu tuh LEUM GOD El sot nu suwos facl se inge. Mwet nukewa in facl se inge elos arulana sangeng suwos.
10 For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red sea for you, when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites, that [were] on the other side Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom ye utterly destroyed.
Kut lohng ke ma usrnguk LEUM GOD El tuh orala ke El akpaoyela kof ke Meoa Srusra ye motowos ke kowos illa liki Egypt. Kut lohng pac lah kowos uniya tokosra luo lun mwet Amor — Sihon ac Og — su muta kutulap in Infacl Jordan.
11 And as soon as we had heard [these things], our hearts did melt, neither did there remain any more courage in any man, because of you: for the LORD your God, he [is] God in heaven above, and in earth beneath.
Ke kut lohngak ah kut arulana sangeng suwos, ac insiasr foroti. LEUM GOD lowos El God lun kusrao ac fin faclu.
12 Now therefore, I pray you, swear unto me by the LORD, since I have shewed you kindness, that ye will also shew kindness unto my father’s house, and give me a true token:
Inge fulahk nu sik ke Inen LEUM GOD lah kowos fah oru kulang nu sin sou luk, oana nga tuh oru kulang nu suwos. Ase sie mwe akul tuh ngan ku in lulalfongi komtal.
13 And [that] ye will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death.
Wulela nu sik lah komtal ac molela papa tumuk ac nina kiuk, oayapa tamulel ac tamtael wiuk ac sou lalos nukewa, ac molikutla liki misa!”
14 And the men answered her, Our life for yours, if ye utter not this our business. And it shall be, when the LORD hath given us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with thee.
Na eltal fahk nu sel, “Kom fin tia fahkak ma kut oru inge, kut wulela nu sum lah ke God El ac fah ase facl se inge nu sesr, kut ac fah oru in wo nu suwos. Lela kut in misa kut fin tia oru oana ma kut fahk inge.”
15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window: for her house [was] upon the town wall, and she dwelt upon the wall.
Lohm sel Rahab oanna sisken pot in siti uh. Ke ma inge el koela mwet inge liki winto lal ke sucl soko.
16 And she said unto them, Get you to the mountain, lest the pursuers meet you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned: and afterward may ye go your way.
Na el fahk nu selos, “Kaingyak nu fineol uh, tuh mwet ukwe kowos ingan in tia konekowosyak. Wikwik we len tolu nwe ke na mwet ingan foloko, na kowos tufah som inkanek lowos.”
17 And the men said unto her, We [will be] blameless of this thine oath which thou hast made us swear.
Ac eltal fahk nu sel, “Kut fah karinganang wulela lasr nu sum, fal nu ke enenu lom nu sesr.
18 Behold, [when] we come into the land, thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by: and thou shalt bring thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all thy father’s household, home unto thee.
Pa inge ma kom enenu in oru. Ke pacl se kut ac foloko mweuni facl se inge, kom fah kapriya fu srusra soko inge ke winto se kom kwikutla we ah. Na kom fah eisani papa tomom ac nina kiom ac tamulel lom ac mwet nukewa in sou lun papa tomom nu in lohm uh.
19 And it shall be, [that] whosoever shall go out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood [shall be] upon his head, and we [will be] guiltless: and whosoever shall be with thee in the house, his blood [shall be] on our head, if [any] hand be upon him.
Kutena mwet fin illa liki lohm uh ac misa likinum uh, mwata ac fah oan facl sifacna ac wangin ip lasr kac. Tuh fin oasr mwet sun ongoiya ke elos mutana yurum lohm uh, oasr ip lasr kac, ac mwata ac fah oan facsr.
20 And if thou utter this our business, then we will be quit of thine oath which thou hast made us to swear.
Tusruktu, kom fin fahkak nu sin kutena mwet ma kut oru inge, kut ac fah tia karingin wulela se su kom sap kut in wulela nu sum kac.”
21 And she said, According unto your words, so [be] it. And she sent them away, and they departed: and she bound the scarlet line in the window.
Rahab el insesela nu seltal ac supwaltalla. Ke eltal som, el kapriya fu srusra soko ah ke winto uh.
22 And they went, and came unto the mountain, and abode there three days, until the pursuers were returned: and the pursuers sought [them] throughout all the way, but found [them] not.
Mwet kalngeyuk inge eltal som nu fineol uh ac wikla we. Mwet lun tokosra elos sokoltal in facl sac nufon ke lusen len tolu, tuh elos tiana konaltalak. Na elos folokla nu Jericho.
23 So the two men returned, and descended from the mountain, and passed over, and came to Joshua the son of Nun, and told him all [things] that befell them:
Na mwet kalngeyuk luo ah tufoki liki fineol uh ac fahsr sasla Infacl Jordan ac folokla nu yorol Joshua. Eltal srumun nu sel ma nukewa ma tuh sikyak nu seltal.
24 And they said unto Joshua, Truly the LORD hath delivered into our hands all the land; for even all the inhabitants of the country do faint because of us.
Ac eltal fahk mu, “Pwayena LEUM GOD El ase facl sac nufon nu inpaosr. Mwet nukewa we arulana sangeng sesr.”
