< Joshua 7 >

1 But the sons of Israel had committed an act of unfaithfulness in respect of what was devoted, —for Achan son of Carmi son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah had taken of what was devoted, and the anger of Yahweh had kindled against the sons of Israel.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Israẹli ṣe àìṣòótọ́ nípa ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀, Akani ọmọ Karmi, ọmọ Sabdi, ọmọ Sera, ẹ̀yà Juda, mú nínú wọn. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìbínú Olúwa ru sí àwọn ará Israẹli.
2 And Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai which was beside Beth-aven on the east side of Bethel, and spake unto them saying, Go up and spy out the land. So the men went up, and spied out Ai.
Joṣua rán àwọn ọkùnrin láti Jeriko lọ sí Ai, tí ó súnmọ́ Beti-Afeni ní ìlà-oòrùn Beteli, ó sì sọ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ gòkè lọ kí ẹ sì ṣe ayọ́lẹ̀wò.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn arákùnrin náà lọ, wọ́n sì yọ́ Ai wò.
3 And they returned unto Joshua and said unto him—Let not all the people go up, about two thousand men or three thousand men, can go up and smite Ai, —do not weary the whole people to go thither, for, but few, they are.
Nígbà tí wọ́n padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ Joṣua, wọ́n wí pé, “Kì í ṣe gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ni ó ni láti gòkè lọ bá Ai jà. Rán ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì tàbí ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta ọkùnrin láti gbà á, kí ó má ṣe dá gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ní agara, nítorí ìba ọkùnrin díẹ̀ ní ó wà níbẹ̀.”
4 There went up thither of the people therefore, about three thousand men, —but they fled before the men of Ai.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ní àwọn bí ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta ọkùnrin lọ; ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin Ai lé wọn sá.
5 And the men of Ai smote of them about thirty-six men, and pursued them before the gate as far as the Shebarim, and smote them on the slope, —so that the heart of the people melted and became as water.
Àwọn ènìyàn Ai sì pa àwọn bí mẹ́rìndínlógójì nínú wọn. Wọ́n sì ń lépa àwọn ará Israẹli láti ibodè ìlú títí dé Ṣebarimu, wọ́n sì pa àwọn tí ń sọ̀kalẹ̀. Àyà àwọn ènìyàn náà sì já, ọkàn wọn sì pami.
6 Then Joshua rent his clothes and fell upon his face to the earth before the ark of Yahweh until the evening, he and the elders of Israel, —and they lifted up dust upon their heads.
Joṣua sì fa aṣọ rẹ̀ ya, ó sì dojúbolẹ̀ níwájú àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa títí di àṣálẹ́. Àwọn àgbà Israẹli sì ṣe bákan náà, wọ́n ku eruku sí orí wọn.
7 And Joshua said—Alas! My Lord Yahweh! Wherefore hast thou, brought, this people over the Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorite to destroy us? Would then we had been content to dwell on the other side of the Jordan!
Joṣua sì wí pé, “Háà, Olúwa Olódùmarè, nítorí kín ni ìwọ ṣe mú àwọn ènìyàn yìí kọjá Jordani, láti fi wọ́n lé àwọn ará Amori lọ́wọ́, láti pa wọn run? Àwa ìbá mọ̀ kí a dúró ní òdìkejì Jordani?
8 Oh My Lord, —what shall I say, after Israel have turned their backs before their enemies?
Olúwa, kín ni èmi yóò sọ nísinsin yìí tí Israẹli sì ti sá níwájú ọ̀tá a rẹ̀?
9 Only let the Canaanite and all the inhabitants of the land hear, and they will surround us, and cut off our name out of the earth, —what then wilt thou do for thy great name?
Àwọn Kenaani àti àwọn ènìyàn ìlú tí ó kù náà yóò gbọ́ èyí, wọn yóò sì yí wa ká, wọn yóò sì ké orúkọ wa kúrò ní ayé. Kí ni ìwọ ó ha ṣe fún orúkọ ńlá à rẹ?”
10 And Yahweh said unto Joshua—Get thee up! wherefore is it that thou art lying upon thy face?
Olúwa sì sọ fún Joṣua pé, “Dìde! Kín ni ìwọ ń ṣe tí ó fi dojúbolẹ̀?
11 Israel hath sinned, yea moreover they have transgressed my covenant which I commanded them, —yea moreover they have taken of what was devoted, yea moreover they have stolen, yea moreover they have dissembled, yea moreover they have put it among their own goods.
Israẹli ti ṣẹ̀, wọ́n sì ti ba májẹ̀mú mi jẹ́, èyí tí mo pàṣẹ fún wọn pé kí wọn pamọ́. Wọ́n ti mú nínú ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀, wọ́n ti jí, wọ́n pa irọ́, wọ́n ti fi wọ́n sí ara ohun ìní wọn.
12 Therefore cannot the sons of Israel stand before their enemies, their back, do they turn before their enemies, because they have become devoted, —I will no more be with you, except ye destroy the devoted thing out of your midst.
Ìdí nì èyí tí àwọn ará Israẹli kò fi lè dúró níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá wọn; wọ́n yí ẹ̀yìn wọn padà, wọ́n sì sálọ níwájú ọ̀tá a wọn nítorí pé àwọn gan an ti di ẹni ìparun. Èmi kì yóò wà pẹ̀lú u yín mọ́, bí kò ṣe pé ẹ̀yin pa ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀ run kúrò ní àárín yín.
13 Up! hallow the people, and thou shalt say, Hallow yourselves by to-morrow, —for, Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel: A devoted thing, is in the midst of thee O Israel, Thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye have put away the devoted thing out of your midst.
“Lọ, ya àwọn ènìyàn náà sí mímọ́. Sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹ ya ara yín sí mímọ́ fún ọ̀la, nítorí báyìí ni Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí, ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀ kan ń bẹ ní àárín yín, Israẹli. Ẹ̀yin kì yóò lè dúró níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá a yín títí ẹ̀yin yóò fi mú kúrò.
14 Therefore shall ye be brought near in the morning by your tribes, —and it shall be that—the tribe which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, by families, and the family which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, by households, and the household which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, man by man;
“‘Ní òwúrọ̀, kí ẹ mú ará yín wá síwájú ní ẹ̀yà kọ̀ọ̀kan. Ẹ̀yà tí Olúwa bá mú yóò wá sí iwájú ní agbo ilé kọ̀ọ̀kan, agbo ilé tí Olúwa bá mú yóò wá sí iwájú ní ìdílé kọ̀ọ̀kan, ìdílé tí Olúwa bá sì mú yóò wá sí iwájú ní ẹni kọ̀ọ̀kan.
15 and it shall be, that—He that is seized with the devoted thing, shall be burned with fire, he and all that he hath, —because he hath transgressed the covenant of Yahweh, and because he hath wrought impiety in Israel.
Ẹnikẹ́ni tí a bá ká mọ́ pẹ̀lú ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀ náà, a ó fi iná pa á run, pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun tí ó ní. Ó ti ba májẹ̀mú Olúwa jẹ́, ó sì ti ṣe nǹkan ìtìjú ní Israẹli!’”
16 So Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel near by their tribes, —and, the tribe of Judah, was seized;
Ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, Joṣua mú Israẹli wá síwájú ní ẹ̀yà kọ̀ọ̀kan, a sì mú ẹ̀yà Juda.
17 and he brought near the family of Judah, and, the family of the Zarhites, was seized, —and he brought near the family of the Zarhites, man by man, and, Zabdi, was seized;
Àwọn agbo ilé e Juda wá sí iwájú, ó sì mú agbo ilé Sera. Ó sì mú agbo ilé Sera wá síwájú ní ìdílé kọ̀ọ̀kan, a sì mú ìdílé Sabdi.
18 and he brought near his household, man by man, —and, Achan son of Carmi son of Zabdi son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was seized.
Joṣua sì mú ìdílé Simri wá síwájú ní ọkùnrin kọ̀ọ̀kan, a sì mú Akani ọmọ Karmi, ọmọ Sabdi, ọmọ Sera ti ẹ̀yà Juda.
19 And Joshua said unto Achan—My son give I pray thee glory unto Yahweh God of Israel and make to him confession, —and tell me I pray thee what thou hast done, do not hide it from me.
Nígbà náà ní Joṣua sọ fún Akani pé, “Ọmọ mi fi ògo fún Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, kí o sì fi ìyìn fún un. Sọ fún mi ohun tí ìwọ ti ṣe, má ṣe fi pamọ́ fún mi.”
20 And Achan answered Joshua and said, —Of a truth, I, have sinned against Yahweh God of Israel, and, thus and thus, have I done:
Akani sì dáhùn pé, “Òtítọ́ ni! Mo ti ṣẹ̀ sí Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli. Nǹkan tí mo ṣe nìyìí,
21 When I saw among the spoil a certain goodly mantle of Babylonia and two hundred shekels of silver and a certain wedge of gold—fifty shekels the weight thereof, then I coveted them, then I took them, —and, there they are, hid in the earth, in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it.
nígbà tí mo rí ẹ̀wù Babeli kan tí ó dára nínú ìkógun, àti igba ṣékélì fàdákà àti odindi wúrà olóṣùnwọ́n àádọ́ta ṣékélì, mo ṣe ojúkòkòrò wọn mo sì mú wọn. Mo fi wọ́n pamọ́ ní abẹ́ àgọ́ mi àti fàdákà ní abẹ́ rẹ̀.”
22 So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent, —and, there it was, hid in his tent, and, the silver, under it.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joṣua ran àwọn òjíṣẹ́, wọ́n sì sáré wọ inú àgọ́ náà, ó sì wà níbẹ̀, a sì fi pamọ́ nínú àgọ́ ọ rẹ̀, àti fàdákà ní abẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀.
23 And they took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them in unto Joshua, and unto all the sons of Israel, —and poured them out before Yahweh.
Wọ́n sì mú àwọn nǹkan náà jáde láti inú àgọ́ rẹ̀, wọ́n mú wọn wá fún Joṣua àti gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, wọ́n sì fi wọ́n lélẹ̀ níwájú Olúwa.
24 And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan—son of Zerah, and the silver and the mantle and the wedge of gold, and his sons and his daughters, and his oxen and his asses and his sheep and his tent, and all that he had, and brought them up the valley of Achor.
Nígbà náà ni Joṣua pẹ̀lú gbogbo Israẹli, mú Akani ọmọ Sera, fàdákà, ẹ̀wù àti wúrà tí a dà, àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin àti obìnrin, màlúù rẹ̀, kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ àti àgùntàn àgọ́ rẹ̀ àti gbogbo ohun tí ó ni, wọ́n sì kó wọn lọ sí ibi àfonífojì Akori.
25 And Joshua said—Why hast thou troubled us? Yahweh, will trouble thee, this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burned them up with fire, and covered them with stones;
Joṣua sì wí pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ mú wàhálà yìí wá sí orí wa? Olúwa yóò mú ìpọ́njú wá sí orí ìwọ náà lónìí.” Nígbà náà ni gbogbo Israẹli sọ ọ́ ní òkúta pa, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n sọ àwọn tókù ní òkúta pa tán, wọ́n sì jó wọn níná.
26 yea they raised over him a great heap of stones [which remaineth] until this day. And Yahweh turned from the fierceness of his anger, —for which cause, hath the name of that place been called—The Valley of Achor, until this day.
Wọ́n sì kó òkìtì òkúta ńlá lé Akani lórí títí di òní yìí. Nígbà náà ní Olúwa sì yí ìbínú gbígbóná rẹ̀ padà. Nítorí náà ni a ṣe ń pe orúkọ ibẹ̀ ní àfonífojì Akori láti ìgbà náà.
