< Joshua 6 >

1 Now, Jericho, was shut up and barred because of the sons of Israel, —none came out and none went in.
Wàyí o, a ti há Jeriko mọ́lé gágá nítorí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, ẹnikẹ́ni kò jáde, ẹnikẹ́ni kò sì wọlé.
2 Then said Yahweh unto Joshua, See, I have delivered, into thy hand, Jericho and her king, —the mighty men of valour.
Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí fún Joṣua pé, “Wò ó, mo ti fi Jeriko lé ọ lọ́wọ́ pẹ̀lú ọba rẹ̀ àti àwọn jagunjagun rẹ̀.
3 So then ye shall compass the city all ye men of war, going round the city, once, —thus, shall thou do six days.
Ẹ wọ́de ogun yí ìlú náà ká lẹ́ẹ̀kan pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn jagunjagun. Ẹ ṣe èyí fún ọjọ́ mẹ́fà.
4 And, seven priests, shall bear the seven rams’ horns before the ark, and, on the seventh day, shall ye compass the city seven times, —and, the priests, shall blow with the horns.
Jẹ́ kí àwọn àlùfáà méje gbé fèrè ìwo àgbò ní iwájú àpótí ẹ̀rí. Ní ọjọ́ keje, ẹ wọ́de ogun yí ìlú náà ká ní ìgbà méje, pẹ̀lú àwọn àlùfáà tí ń fọn fèrè.
5 And it shall come to pass, when the ram’s horn soundeth, when ye hear the sound of the horn, that all the people shall shout with a great shout, —and then shall the wall of the city fall down under it, and the people shall go up, every man straight before him.
Nígbà tí ẹ bá gbọ́ ohùn fèrè náà, kí àwọn ènìyàn hó yèè ní igbe ńlá, nígbà náà ni odi ìlú náà yóò sì wó lulẹ̀, àwọn ènìyàn yóò sì lọ sí òkè, olúkúlùkù yóò sì wọ inú rẹ̀ lọ tààrà.”
6 Then called Joshua son of Nun unto the priests, and said unto them, Bear ye the ark of the covenant, —and let, seven priest, bear seven rams horns, before the ark of Yahweh.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joṣua ọmọ Nuni pe àwọn àlùfáà ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa náà kí àwọn àlùfáà méje tí ó ru fèrè ìwo wà ní iwájú u rẹ̀.”
7 Then said he unto the people, Pass on and compass the city, —and let, the armed host, pass on before the ark of Yahweh.
Ó sì pàṣẹ fún àwọn ènìyàn náà pé, “Ẹ lọ, kí ẹ sì yí ìlú náà ká pẹ̀lú àwọn olùṣọ́ tí ó hámọ́ra kọjá ní iwájú àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa.”
8 And it was so, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that, the seven priests who were bearing the seven rams’ horns before Yahweh, passed on and blew with the horns, —the ark of the covenant of Yahweh also coming after them.
Nígbà tí Joṣua ti bá àwọn ènìyàn sọ̀rọ̀ tán, àwọn àlùfáà méje tí wọ́n gbé fèrè méje ní iwájú Olúwa kọjá sí iwájú, wọ́n sì fọn fèrè wọn, àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa sì tẹ̀lé wọn.
9 And, the armed host, went on before the priests who blew with the horns, —and, the rear-guard, came after the ark, going on and blowing with the horns.
Àwọn olùṣọ tí ó hámọ́ra sì lọ níwájú àwọn àlùfáà tí ń fọn fèrè, olùṣọ́ ẹ̀yìn sì tẹ̀lé àpótí ẹ̀rí náà. Ní gbogbo àsìkò yìí fèrè sì ń dún.
10 Now, unto the people, had Joshua given command, saying—Ye shall not shout nor let your voice be heard, neither shall there go out of your mouth, a word, —until the day when I say unto you Shout! then shall ye shout.
Ṣùgbọ́n Joṣua tí pàṣẹ fún àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ kígbe ogun, ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ gbé ohùn yín sókè, ẹ má ṣe sọ ọ̀rọ̀ kan títí ọjọ́ tí èmi yóò sọ fún un yín pé kí ẹ hó. Nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yin yóò sì hó!”
11 So he caused the ark of Yahweh to compass the city, going round once, —and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó mú kí àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa yí ìlú náà ká, ó sì yí i ká lẹ́ẹ̀kan. Nígbà náà ni àwọn ènìyàn náà padà sí ibùdó, wọ́n sì gbé ibẹ̀ fún alẹ́ náà.
12 And Joshua rose early in the morning, —and the priests bare the ark of Yahweh;
Joṣua sì dìde ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, àwọn àlùfáà sì gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa.
13 and, the seven priests who bare the seven rams’ horns before the ark of Yahweh, went on and on, and blew with the horns, —with, the armed host going on before them, and, the rear-guard, coming after the ark of Yahweh, going on and blowing with the horns.
Àwọn àlùfáà méje tí ó gbé ìpè ìwo àgbò méje ń lọ níwájú àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa, wọ́n sì ń fọ́n àwọn ìpè: àwọn tí ó hámọ́ra ogun ń lọ níwájú u wọn; àwọn ọmọ tó wà lẹ́yìn sì ń tọ àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa lẹ́yìn, àwọn àlùfáà sì ń fọn ìpè bí wọ́n ti ń lọ.
14 So they compassed the city on the second day once, and returned into the camp, —thus, did they, six days.
Ní ọjọ́ kejì, wọ́n yí ìlú náà ká lẹ́ẹ̀kan wọ́n sì padà sí ibùdó. Wọ́n sì ṣe èyí fún ọjọ́ mẹ́fà.
15 And it came to pass, on the seventh day, that they rose early at the uprisings of the dawn, and compassed the city after this manner, seven times, —only on that day they compassed the city seven times.
Ní ọjọ́ keje, wọ́n dìde ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ní àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́, wọ́n sì wọ́de ogun yí ìlú náà ká ní ìgbà méje, gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti ìṣáájú, ní ọjọ́ keje nìkan ṣoṣo ni wọ́n wọ́de ogun yí ìlú náà ká nígbà méje.
16 And it came to pass, at the seventh time—when the priests blew with the horns, then did Joshua say unto the people—Shout, for Yahweh hath delivered unto you the city.
Ní ìgbà keje, nígbà tí àwọn àlùfáà fọn fèrè, Joṣua pàṣẹ fún àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Ẹ hó! Nítorí pé Olúwa ti fún un yín ní ìlú náà.
17 And it shall be, that, as for the city, devoted, shall it be and all that is therein unto Yahweh, —nevertheless, Rahab the harlot, shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers whom we sent.
Ìlú náà àti gbogbo ohun tí ó wà níbẹ̀ ni yóò jẹ́ ìyàsọ́tọ̀ fún Olúwa. Rahabu tí ó jẹ́ panṣágà nìkan àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú u rẹ̀ ni a ó dá sí; nítorí tí ó pa àwọn ayọ́lẹ̀wò tí á rán mọ́.
18 But, in any wise, do, ye, beware of what is devoted, lest ye should covet, and then take of what is devoted, —and so cause the camp of Israel to be devoted, and bring trouble upon it.
Ẹ pa ara yín mọ́ kúrò nínú ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀ fún ìparun, kí ẹ̀yin kí ó má ba à ṣojú kòkòrò nípa mímú nínú àwọn ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀. Bí kò ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ ẹ ó sọ ibùdó Israẹli di ìparun. Kí ẹ sì mú wàhálà wá sórí i rẹ̀.
19 But, as for all silver and gold and vessels of bronze and iron, hallowed, it is to Yahweh, —unto the treasury of Yahweh, shall it come.
Gbogbo fàdákà àti wúrà àti ohun èlò idẹ àti irin jẹ́ mímọ́ fún Olúwa, wọ́n yóò wá sínú ìṣúra Olúwa.”
20 So the people shouted, when the horns were blown, —yea it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the horn, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down under it, and the people went up into the city every man straight before him, and so they captured the city.
Nígbà tí àwọn àlùfáà fọn ìpè, àwọn ènìyàn náà sì hó. Ó sì ṣe, bí àwọn ènìyàn ti gbọ́ ìró ìpè, tí àwọn ènìyàn sì hó ìhó ńlá, odi ìlú náà wó lulẹ̀ bẹẹrẹ; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni olúkúlùkù ya wọ inú ìlú náà lọ tààrà, wọ́n sì kó ìlú náà.
21 And they devoted all that were in the city, both man and woman, both young and old, —and ox and sheep and ass, with the edge of the sword.
Wọ́n ya ìlú náà sọ́tọ̀ fún Olúwa àti fún ìparun, wọ́n sì fi idà run gbogbo ohun alààyè ní ìlú náà—ọkùnrin àti obìnrin, ọ́mọdé, àti àgbà, màlúù, àgùntàn àti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́.
22 But, unto the two men who spied out the land, Joshua said, Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, —and bring out thence the woman and all that she hath, as ye aware unto her.
Joṣua sì sọ fún àwọn ọkùnrin méjì tí wọ́n ti wá ṣe ayọ́lẹ̀wò ilẹ̀ náà pé, “Ẹ lọ sí ilé panṣágà nì, kí ẹ sì mu jáde àti gbogbo ohun tí í ṣe tirẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ tí búra fún un.”
23 So the young men the spies went in and brought out Rahab and her father and her mother and her brethren and all that she had, yea, all her kindred, brought they out, —and set them outside the camp of Israel.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ní àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin tí ó lọ ṣe ayọ́lẹ̀wò wọlé lọ, wọ́n sì mú Rahabu jáde, baba rẹ̀, ìyá rẹ̀, àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ àti ohun gbogbo tí ó ní. Wọ́n sì mú gbogbo ìdílé rẹ̀ jáde, wọ́n sì fi wọ́n sí ibìkan ní ìta ibùdó àwọn ará Israẹli.
24 But, the city, burned they with fire, and all that was therein, —save only, the silver and the gold and the vessels of bronze and of iron, put they into the treasury of the house of Yahweh.
Nígbà náà ni wọ́n sun gbogbo ìlú náà àti gbogbo ohun tí ó wà nínú u rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n fi fàdákà, wúrà ohun èlò idẹ àti irin sínú ìṣúra ilé Olúwa.
25 And, Rahab the harlot and the household of her father and all that she had, did Joshua save alive, so she hath dwelt in the midst of Israel until this day, —because she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Ṣùgbọ́n Joṣua dá Rahabu panṣágà pẹ̀lú gbogbo ìdílé e rẹ̀ àti gbogbo ẹni tí í ṣe tirẹ̀ sí nítorí pé, ó pa àwọn ọkùnrin tí Joṣua rán gẹ́gẹ́ bí ayọ́lẹ̀wò sí Jeriko mọ́. Ó sì ń gbé láàrín ará Israẹli títí di òní yìí.
26 And Joshua imposed an oath at that time, saying, —Cursed be the man before Yahweh who shall raise up and build this city—Jericho, At the price of his firstborn, shall he lay its foundation, and, at the price of his youngest, shall he set up its doors.
Ní àkókò náà Joṣua sì búra pé, “Ègún ni fún ẹni náà níwájú Olúwa tí yóò dìde, tí yóò sì tún ìlú Jeriko kọ́: “Pẹ̀lú ikú àkọ́bí ọmọ rẹ̀ ni yóò fi pilẹ̀ rẹ̀; ikú àbíkẹ́yìn rẹ̀ ní yóò fi gbé ìlẹ̀kùn bodè rẹ̀ ró.”
27 And so it was that Yahweh was with Joshua, —and his fame was in all the land.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú Joṣua; òkìkí rẹ̀ sì kàn ká gbogbo ilẹ̀ náà.
