< Joshua 6 >
1 And Jericho shuts itself up, and is shut up, because of the presence of the sons of Israel—none going out, and none coming in.
Pada waktu itu, pintu gerbang kota Yeriko ditutup rapat dan dijaga ketat karena orang Yeriko takut kepada orang Israel. Tidak seorang pun boleh keluar ataupun masuk.
2 And YHWH says to Joshua, “See, I have given Jericho and its king into your hand—mighty men of valor,
TUHAN berkata kepada Yosua, “Lihat, Aku menyerahkan Yeriko kepadamu, beserta rajanya dan para panglimanya.
3 and you have surrounded the city—all the men of battle—going around the city once; thus you do [for] six days;
Selama enam hari, kamu dan pasukanmu harus mengelilingi kota ini satu kali sehari.
4 and seven priests carry seven horns of the rams before the Ark, and on the seventh day you go around the city seven times, and the priests blow with the horns,
Perintahkan tujuh orang imam untuk berjalan di depan para imam yang mengangkat peti perjanjian, masing-masing membawa terompet dari tanduk domba. Pada hari yang ketujuh, kelilingilah kota itu tujuh kali, sementara para imam meniup terompet.
5 and it has been, in the prolonging of the horn of the ram, in your hearing the voice of the horn, all the people shout [with] a great shout, and the wall of the city has fallen under it, and the people have gone up, each straight before him.”
Saat mendengar terompet berbunyi panjang, kalian semua harus berteriak dengan nyaring. Tembok kota itu akan runtuh, dan kalian masing-masing harus memanjat reruntuhan tembok di depanmu lalu masuk kota itu.”
6 And Joshua son of Nun calls to the priests and says to them, “Carry the Ark of the Covenant, and seven priests carry seven horns of the rams before the Ark of YHWH”;
Maka Yosua memanggil para imam lalu memerintahkan mereka, “Angkatlah peti perjanjian TUHAN. Tujuh orang imam harus berjalan di depannya, masing-masing membawa terompet dari tanduk domba.”
7 and He said to the people, “Pass over, and go around the city, and he who is armed passes over before the Ark of YHWH.”
Yosua juga berkata kepada pasukannya, “Majulah dan berjalanlah mengelilingi kota itu, dengan pasukan bersenjata berjalan di depan peti perjanjian.”
8 And it comes to pass, when Joshua speaks to the people, that the seven priests carrying seven horns of the rams before YHWH have passed over and blown with the horns, and the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH is going after them;
Sesudah Yosua memberikan perintah, mulailah pasukan bersenjata berjalan di depan, diikuti oleh ketujuh imam yang meniup terompet, lalu para imam yang membawa peti perjanjian TUHAN, dan pasukan selebihnya di belakang.
9 and he who is armed is going before the priests blowing the horns, and he who is gathering up is going after the Ark, going on and blowing with the horns;
10 and Joshua has commanded the people, saying, “Do not shout, nor cause your voice to be heard, nor does a word go out from your mouth, until the day of my saying to you, Shout! Then you have shouted.”
Yosua sudah memerintahkan pasukan itu, “Jangan berteriak ataupun mengeluarkan suara. Jangan mengatakan apa pun juga sampai pada hari ketika saya menyuruh kalian berteriak. Pada waktu itu barulah kalian harus berteriak!”
11 And the Ark of YHWH goes around the city, going around once, and they come into the camp, and lodge in the camp.
Maka mereka membawa peti perjanjian mengelilingi kota itu satu kali. Kemudian mereka kembali ke perkemahan dan bermalam di situ.
12 And Joshua rises early in the morning, and the priests carry the Ark of YHWH,
Besoknya, Yosua bangun pagi-pagi sekali. Dan seperti sebelumnya, para imam bersama pasukan kembali mengelilingi kota itu. Pasukan bersenjata di depan, diikuti oleh tujuh imam yang meniup terompet terus menerus, lalu para imam yang mengangkat peti perjanjian TUHAN, dan pasukan selebihnya di belakang.
13 and seven priests carrying seven horns of the rams before the Ark of YHWH are walking, going on, and they have blown with the horns—and he who is armed is going before them, and he who is gathering up is going behind the Ark of YHWH—going on and blowing with the horns.
14 And they go around the city once on the second day, and return to the camp; thus they have done [for] six days.
Di hari kedua, mereka kembali mengelilingi kota itu satu kali, lalu kembali ke perkemahan. Hal itu mereka lakukan selama enam hari berturut-turut.
15 And it comes to pass, on the seventh day, that they rise early, at the ascending of the dawn, and go around the city, according to this manner, seven times; (only on that day have they gone around the city seven times);
Pada hari yang ketujuh, mereka bangun pagi sekali dan mengelilingi kota itu seperti sebelumnya, hanya saja kali ini mereka mengelilinginya tujuh kali.
16 and it comes to pass, at the seventh time, the priests have blown with the horns, and Joshua says to the people, “Shout! For YHWH has given the city to you;
Pada putaran yang ketujuh, para imam meniup terompet tanduk dan Yosua berkata kepada pasukan, “Bersoraklah, karena TUHAN sudah memberikan kota ini kepada kalian!
17 and the city has been devoted, it and all that [is] in it, to YHWH; only Rahab the harlot lives, she and all who [are] with her in the house, for she hid the messengers whom we sent;
Yeriko dan segala isinya harus dimusnahkan sebagai persembahan bagi TUHAN. Hanya Rahab, pelacur itu, dan semua orang di rumahnya yang dibiarkan hidup, karena dia sudah menyembunyikan mata-mata kita.
18 and surely you have kept from the devoted thing, lest you devote [yourselves], and have taken from the devoted thing, and have made the camp of Israel become a devoted thing, and have troubled it;
“Jangan mengambil apa pun yang harus dimusnahkan. Kalau kalian mengambil sesuatu, perkemahan kita sendiri akan dihancurkan dan kita akan ditimpa musibah.
19 and all the silver and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron—it [is] holy to YHWH; it comes into the treasury of YHWH.”
Semua perak dan emas, serta barang-barang dari perunggu dan besi, adalah milik TUHAN. Semua itu harus dibawa ke tempat penyimpanan harta milik TUHAN.”
20 And the people shout, and blow with the horns, and it comes to pass, when the people hear the voice of the horn, that the people shout [with] a great shout, and the wall falls under it, and the people goes up into the city, each straight before him, and they capture the city;
Ketika orang Israel mendengar bunyi terompet, mereka berteriak sangat keras. Lalu tembok Yeriko runtuh dan seluruh pasukan menyerbu masuk ke dalam kota itu dan menguasainya.
21 and they devote all that [is] in the city, from man even to woman, from young even to aged, even to ox, and sheep, and donkey, by the mouth of the sword.
Mereka membunuh semua yang ada di kota itu, baik laki-laki maupun perempuan, tua maupun muda, bahkan semua ternak sapi, domba, dan keledai.
22 And Joshua said to the two men who are spying out the land, “Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring out the woman from there, and all whom she has, as you have sworn to her.”
Sebelumnya, Yosua sudah berkata kepada dua mata-mata yang menyelidiki negeri itu, “Masuklah ke rumah pelacur itu dan bawalah dia keluar bersama seluruh keluarganya, seperti yang sudah kalian janjikan kepadanya.”
23 And the young men, those spying, go in and bring out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brothers, and all whom she has; indeed, they have brought out all her relatives, and place them at the outside of the camp of Israel.
Maka kedua mata-mata muda itu pergi dan membawa Rahab keluar bersama ayahnya, ibu, saudara-saudara, dan semua sanak saudara yang bersama dia ke tempat aman di dekat perkemahan orang Israel.
24 And they have burned the city with fire, and all that [is] in it; only, the silver and the gold, and the vessels of bronze, and of iron, they have given [to] the treasury of the house of YHWH;
Lalu orang Israel membakar kota itu dan semua yang ada di dalamnya, kecuali perak, emas, dan barang-barang dari perunggu dan besi. Mereka mengambil barang-barang itu untuk disimpan di tempat penyimpanan harta milik TUHAN.
25 and Rahab the harlot, and the house of her father, and all whom she has, Joshua has kept alive; and she dwells in the midst of Israel to this day, for she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Tetapi Yosua membiarkan Rahab, pelacur itu, dan keluarganya yang bersama dengan dia tetap hidup. Keturunan Rahab tinggal di antara orang Israel sampai kitab ini ditulis karena dia menyembunyikan mata-mata yang diutus Yosua ke Yeriko.
26 And Joshua adjures [them] at that time, saying, “Cursed [is] the man before YHWH who raises up and has built this city, [even] Jericho; he lays its foundation in his firstborn, and he sets up its doors in his youngest.”
Pada waktu itu Yosua memberi peringatan keras, “Siapa pun yang berusaha membangun kembali kota Yeriko akan dikutuk oleh TUHAN. Dia akan kehilangan anak sulungnya saat meletakkan fondasi benteng kota dan akan kehilangan anak bungsunya saat mendirikan pintu gerbangnya!”
27 And YHWH is with Joshua, and his fame is in all the land.
TUHAN menyertai Yosua dan menjadikan dia terkenal di seluruh negeri itu.
