< Joshua 9 >

1 And it comes to pass, when all the kings who [are] beyond the Jordan, in the hill-country, and in the low-country, and in every haven of the Great Sea, toward Lebanon, the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, hear—
Ket dagiti amin nga ari nga agnanaed iti ballasiw ti Jordan iti katurodan a pagilian, ken kadagiti kapatadan iti igid ti Dakkel a Baybay nga agturong idiay Libano- dagiti Heteo, Amorreo, Cananeo, Perezeo, Heveo ken Jebuseo-
2 that they gather themselves together to fight with Joshua, and with Israel—[with] one mouth.
nagsangsangkamaysa dagitoy iti maysa a bilin, tapno makigubat a maibusor kenni Josue ken iti Israel.
3 And the inhabitants of Gibeon have heard that which Joshua has done to Jericho and to Ai,
Idi nangngeg dagiti amin nga agnanaed iti Gabaon ti inaramid ni Josue iti Jerico ken iti Ai,
4 and they work, even they, with subtlety, and go, and feign to be ambassadors, and take old sacks for their donkeys, and wine-bottles, old, and split, and bound up,
nagtignayda nga addaan iti makaallilaw a panggep. Nagbalonda kadagiti abasto nga agpaay kadakuada ken nangalada kadagiti rutrot a sako ket insakayda kadagiti asnoda. Nangalada met kadagiti daan a lalat a pagkargaan iti arak, rutrot, pigis ken natarimaanen.
5 and sandals, old and patched, on their feet, and old garments on them, and all the bread of their provision is dry—it was crumbs.
Nangisuotda kadagiti daan ken natakupan a sandalias, ken nagkawesda iti daan ken rutrot a pagan-anay. Amin a tinapay iti abastoda a makan ket namaga ken binuot.
6 And they go to Joshua, to the camp at Gilgal, and say to him, and to the men of Israel, “We have come from a far-off land, and now, make a covenant with us”;
Kalpasanna, napanda kenni Josue iti kampo idiay Gilgal ket kinunada kenkuana ken kadagiti tattao ti Israel, “Nagdaliasatkami manipud iti adayo unay a pagilian, isu a makitulagkayo ita kadakami.”
7 and the men of Israel say to the Hivite, “It may be [that] you are dwelling in our midst, so how do we make a covenant with you?”
Kinuna dagiti tattao ti Israel kadagiti Heveo, “Nalabit nga agnanaedkayo iti asidegmi. Kasano a makitinnulagkami kadakayo?”
8 And they say to Joshua, “We [are] your servants.” And Joshua says to them, “Who [are] you? And where do you come from?”
Kinunada kenni Josue, “Dakami dagiti adipenmo.” Kinuna ni Josue kadakuada, “Siasinokayo? Sadino ti naggapuanyo?”
9 And they say to him, “Your servants have come from a very far-off land, for the Name of your God YHWH, for we have heard His fame, and all that He has done in Egypt,
Kinunada kenkuana, “Immay ditoy dagiti adipenmo manipud iti adayo unay a daga, babaen iti nagan ni Yahweh a Diosmo. Nangngegmi ti damag maipanggep kenkuana ken ti maipanggep iti amin a banbanag nga inaramidna idiay Egipto-
10 and all that He has done to the two kings of the Amorite who [are] beyond the Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon, and to Og king of Bashan, who [is] in Ashtaroth.
ken ti amin a banbanag nga inaramidna iti dua nga ari dagiti Amorreo iti ballasiw ti Jordan- kenni Sihon nga ari ti Hesbon, ken ni Og nga ari ti Basan nga adda idiay Astarot.
11 And our elderly, and all the inhabitants of our land speak to us, saying, Take provision in your hand for the way, and go to meet them, and you have said to them: We [are] your servants, and now, make a covenant with us;
Kinuna kadakami dagiti panglakayenmi ken dagiti amin nga agnanaed iti pagilianmi, 'Mangalakayo iti balon nga agpaay iti panagdaliasatyo. Mapanyo ida sabaten ket kunaenyo kadakuada, “Dakami dagiti adipenyo. Makitulagkayo kadakami.”
12 this bread of ours—we provided ourselves with it hot out of our houses, on the day of our coming out to go to you, and now, behold, it is dry, and has been crumbs;
Daytoy ti tinapaymi, napudot pay laeng idi innalami daytoy manipud kadagiti babbalaymi iti aldaw a nagrubbuatkami nga umay kadakayo. Ngem ita, kitaenyo, namagan ken binuoten daytoy.
13 and these [are] the wine-bottles which we filled, new, and behold, they have split; and these, our garments and our sandals, have become old, from the exceeding greatness of the way.”
Barbaro dagitoy a lalat a pagkargaan iti arak idi pinunnomi dagitoy, ket kitaenyo, adda bittaknan dagitoyen. Dimmaanen dagiti pagan-anaymi ken dagiti sandaliasmi gapu iti atiddog unay a panagdaliasatmi.'”
14 And the men take of their provision, and have not asked the mouth of YHWH;
Nangala ngarud dagiti Israelita iti sumagmamano kadagiti balonda, ngem saanda a nakiuman kenni Yahweh no ania ti rumbeng nga aramidenda.
15 and Joshua makes peace with them, and makes a covenant with them, to keep them alive; and the princes of the congregation swear to them.
Nakikappia ni Josue kadakuada ken napasnek a nagkari a napatalgedan iti dara, a palubosanna ida nga agbiag. Nagsapata met kadakuada dagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti tattao.
16 And it comes to pass, that at the end of three days after they have made a covenant with them, that they hear that they [are] their neighbors—that they are dwelling in their midst.
Tallo nga aldaw kalpasan ti pannakitulag dagiti Israelita kadakuada, naammoanda a kaarrubada gayam ida ken agnanaedda iti asideg.
17 And the sons of Israel journey and come to their cities on the third day—and their cities [are] Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth, and Kirjath-Jearim—
Nagrubbuat ngarud dagiti tattao ti Israel ket dimtengda iti siudadda iti maikatlo nga aldaw. Dagiti siudadda ket Gabaon, Kefira, Beerot ken Kiriat Jearim.
18 and the sons of Israel have not struck them, for the princes of the congregation have sworn to them by YHWH, God of Israel, and all the congregation murmur against the princes.
Saan ida a rinaut dagiti tattao ti Israel gapu ta nagsapata dagiti mangidadaulo kadakuada maipanggep kadakuada iti sangoanan ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel. Nagtanabutob dagiti amin nga Israelita a maibusor kadagiti mangidadaulo kadakuada.
19 And all the princes say to all the congregation, “We have sworn to them by YHWH, God of Israel; and now, we are not able to come against them;
Ngem kinuna dagiti amin a mangidadaulo kadagiti amin a tattao, “Nagsapatatayo maipapan kadakuada babaen kenni Yahweh, ti Dios ti Israel, ket saantayo ita a mabalin a dangran ida.
20 we do this to them, and have kept them alive, and wrath is not on us, because of the oath which we have sworn to them.”
Daytoy ti aramidentayo kadakuada: Tapno maliklikantayo ti aniaman a pungtot a mabalin nga umay kadatayo gapu iti kari nga insapatatayo kadakuada, palubosantayo ida nga agbiag.”
21 And the princes say to them, “They live, and are hewers of wood and drawers of water for all the congregation, as the princes spoke to them.”
Kinuna dagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti tattaoda, “Palubosanyo ida nga agbiag.” Nagbalin ngarud dagiti taga-Gabaon a para-balsig ken para-sakdo nga agpaay kadagiti amin nga Israelita, a kas kinuna dagiti mangidadaulo maipanggep kadakuada.
22 And Joshua calls for them, and speaks to them, saying, “Why have you deceived us, saying, We are very far from you, yet you [are] dwelling in our midst?
Pinaayaban ida ni Josue ket kinunana, “Apay nga inallilawdakami idi kinunayo 'Adayokami unay kadakayo', idinto a makipagnanaedkayo met gayam kadakami?
23 And now you are cursed, and none of you is cut off [from being] a servant, even hewers of wood and drawers of water, for the house of my God.”
Ita, gapu iti daytoy, nailunodkayo ket kanayonto a tagabu dagiti dadduma kadakayo, dagiti para-balsig ken para-sakdo nga agpaay iti balay ti Diosko.”
24 And they answer Joshua and say, “Because it was certainly declared to your servants that your God YHWH commanded His servant Moses to give all the land to you, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; and we fear greatly for ourselves because of you, and we do this thing;
Simmungbatda kenni Josue ket kinunada, “Gapu ta naibaga kadagiti adipenyo a binilin ni Yahweh a Diosyo ni Moises nga adipenna nga itedna kadakayo dagiti amin a daga, ken tapno dadaelenyo dagiti amin nga agnanaed iti daga iti sangoananyo- isu a nagbutengkami unay para kadagiti bibiagmi gapu kadakayo. Isu nga inaramidmi daytoy a banag.
25 and now, behold, we [are] in your hand, as [it is] good, and as [it is] right in your eyes to do to us—do.”
Kitaem ita, tengngelnakami iti pannakabalinmo. Aniaman nga ipagarupmo a nasayaat ken nalinteg nga aramidem kadakami, aramidem daytoy.”
26 And he does to them so, and delivers them from the hand of the sons of Israel, and they have not slain them;
Inaramid ngarud ni Josue daytoy para kadakuada: inikkatna ida manipud iti panangituray dagiti tattao ti Israel, ken saan ida a pinapatay dagiti Israelita.
27 and on that day Joshua makes them hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation, and for the altar of YHWH, to this day, at the place which He chooses.
Iti dayta nga aldaw, pinagbalin ni Josue dagiti taga-Gabaon a para-balsig ken para-sakdo nga agpaay kadagiti tattao, ken agpaay iti altar ni Yahweh, agingga ita nga aldaw, iti lugar a pilien ni Yahweh.
