1 And he said Yahweh to Joshua may not you fear and may not you be dismayed take with you all [the] people of war and arise go up Ai see - I have given in hand your [the] king of Ai and people his and city his and land his.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Joshua niya, “Kik iluor, kendo kik chunyi nyosre. Kaw jolweny duto mondo udhi umonj Ai, nimar asechiwo e lwetu ruodh Ai, joge, dalane maduongʼ kod pinye.
2 And you will do to Ai and to king its just as you did to Jericho and to king its only booty its and livestock its you will plunder for yourselves set for yourself an ambush for the city behind it.
Timneuru Ai kod ruodhe mana kaka ne utimone Jeriko kod ruodhe, to wangʼni oyienu kawo gigo mane giyudo e yor mecho kaachiel gi jamni. Monjuru dala maduongʼno gi yo katoke.”
3 And he arose Joshua and all [the] people of war to go up Ai and he chose Joshua thirty thousand man [the] mighty [men] of strength and he sent out them night.
Omiyo Joshua kod jolweny duto nowuok mondo gimonj Ai. Noyiero joge alufu piero adek molony e lweny mi oorogi oko gotieno komiyogi chik niya,
4 And he commanded them saying see you [are] lying in wait for the city behind the city may not you go far away from the city very and you will be all of you prepared.
“Winjuru. Nyaka umonj dala maduongʼno gi yo katoke. Kik udhi mabor ahinya. Un duto nyaka uikru.
5 And I and all the people which [is] with me we will draw near to the city and it will be that they will come out to meet us just as at the first [time] and we will flee before them.
An kod jogo duto man koda, to biro dhi nyime e dala maduongʼ, to ka jogo obiro mondo omonjwa kaka negitimo motelocha, to wabiro ringo waa irgi.
6 And they will come out after us until have drawn out we them from the city for they will say [they are] fleeing before us just as at the first [time] and we will flee before them.
Gibiro luwo bangʼwa nyaka wawuondgi mi giwuog oko mar dala maduongʼ, mi giniwach e chunygi ni, ‘Ne, giringowa mana kaka ne giringowa motelo.’ Omiyo seche mwaringogino
7 And you you will arise from the ambush and you will take possession of the city and he will give it Yahweh God your in hand your.
nyaka uwuog kuma upondoe kendo ukaw dala maduongʼno. Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu biro ketogi e lwetu.
8 And it will be when have captured you the city you will set on fire the city with fire according to [the] word of Yahweh you will do see I have commanded you.
Ka usekawo dala maduongʼno, to uwangʼe gi mach. Timuru gima Jehova Nyasaye osechiko kendo nyaka une ni utimo gik ma achikou.”
9 And he sent out them Joshua and they went to the ambush and they remained between Beth-el and between Ai from [the] west of Ai and he stayed Joshua in the night that in among the people.
Eka Joshua noorogi ma gidhi gipondo e kind Bethel gi Ai, ma en yo podho chiengʼ mar Ai, kendo otienono nosiko gi ji kanyo.
10 And he rose early Joshua in the morning and he mustered the people and he went up he and [the] elders of Israel before the people Ai.
Kinyne gokinyi mangʼich Joshua nochoko jolweny mage duto ka en kaachiel gi jodong Israel wuotho e nyimgi kadhi Ai.
11 And all the people of war which [was] with him they went up and they approached and they came before the city and they encamped from [the] north of Ai and the valley ([was] between it *Q(k)*) and between Ai.
Jolweny duto mane ni kode ne wuotho ka gichomo dala maduongʼ nyaka negichopo machiegni kode. Negigero kambigi yo nyandwat mar Ai, ka holo ni e kindgi kod dala maduongʼ.
12 And he took about five thousand man and he set them an ambush between Beth-el and between Ai from [the] west of the city.
Joshua nokawo ji madirom alufu abich mooro yo podho chiengʼ mar Ai mondo opond e kind Bethel kod dala maduongʼno.
13 And they set the people all the camp which [was] from [the] north of the city and rearguard its from [the] west of the city and he went Joshua in the night that in [the] middle of the valley.
Kuom mano thoth jolweny nobworo yo nyandwat mar dala maduongʼno, to joma nopondo ne ni yo podho chiengʼ. Otienono Joshua to nonindo e holo.
14 And it was when saw [the] king of Ai and they hurried and they rose early and they went out [the] men of the city to meet Israel for battle he and all people his to the appointed place before the Arabah and he not he knew that an ambush for him [was] behind the city.
Kane ruodh Ai oneno ma, en kod ji duto mar dala maduongʼ nowuok oko mapiyo nono gokinyi mangʼich mondo girom kod jo-Israel e lweny kama omanyore gi Araba. To ne ok ongʼeyo ni kar pondo noseketi e ngʼe dala maduongʼno.
15 And they were struck Joshua and all Israel before them and they fled [the] direction of the wilderness.
Joshua kod jo-Israel duto nowuondore ni ologi, mi giringo ka gichiko thim.
16 And they were called together all the people which ([was] in Ai *Q(K)*) to pursue after them and they pursued after Joshua and they were drawn out from the city.
Chwo duto ma Ai nowuok mondo olaw Joshua gi joge, to kane gilawogi kamano, to ne gichwalore mabor gi dala maduongʼno.
17 And not he remained anyone in Ai and Beth-el who not they went out after Israel and they left the city open and they pursued after Israel.
Onge ngʼama nodongʼ Ai kata Bethel mane ok olawo jo-Israel. Ne giweyo dala maduongʼ nono ka gilawo jo-Israel.
18 And he said Yahweh to Joshua stretch out with the javelin which [is] in hand your to Ai for in hand your I will give it and he stretched out Joshua with the javelin which [was] in hand his to the city.
Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Joshua niya, “Siem yo Ai gi tongʼ mitingʼo e lwetino, nikech e lweti abiro chiwoe dala maduongʼno.” Omiyo Joshua nosiemo tongʼe kochiko Ai.
19 And the ambush it arose quickly from place its and they ran when stretched out hand his and they went the city and they captured it and they hurried and they set on fire the city with fire.
E seche mane otimo ma, jogo mane opondo noa malo piyo ka giringo gidonjo e dala maduongʼ. Bangʼ kane gisekawe, ne giwangʼe mana gisano.
20 And they turned [the] men of Ai behind them and they saw and there! it went up [the] smoke of the city the heavens towards and not it was in them hands to flee hither and hither and the people which was fleeing the wilderness it turned back against the pursuer.
Jo-Ai nongʼiyo chien ma gineno ka iro dhwolore e dala maduongʼ kochiko polo, makmana ne gionge gi thuolo mar pondo e yo moro amora nikech jo-Israel mane osebedo kawuondore ni ringo kochiko thim nolokore kod jogo mane lawogi.
21 And Joshua and all Israel they saw that it had captured the ambush the city and that it went up [the] smoke of the city and they turned back and they attacked [the] men of Ai.
Kane Joshua kod jo-Israel noneno ka joma nopondo osekawo dala maduongʼ kendo iro bende ne dhwolore kanyo, negilokore mi gimonjo jo-Ai.
22 And these [men] they came out from the city to meet them and they were to Israel in the middle these from this and these from this and they struck down them until not he had left to him a survivor and a fugitive.
Jogo mane opondo bende nowuok oko mar dala maduongʼ moromo kodgi kendo omonjogi, omiyo nogengʼnegi e diere ka jo-Israel ni koni gi koni. Jo-Israel notiekogi pep maonge ngʼama notony kata achiel.
23 And [the] king of Ai they captured alive and they brought near him to Joshua.
Ruodh Ai kende ema negimako kangima kendo negitere ir Joshua.
24 And it was when had finished Israel to kill all [the] inhabitants of Ai in the open country in the wilderness which they had pursued them in it and they had fallen all of them to [the] mouth of [the] sword until were finished they and they returned all Israel Ai and they attacked it to [the] mouth of [the] sword.
Kane jo-Israel ne osetieko nego jo-Ai duto mane ni e pap kod mane ni e thim kama ne giselawogie, kendo kane gisenegogi duto gi ligangla, jo-Israel nodok Ai mi ginego jogo mane odongʼ kuno.
25 And it was all those [who] fell on the day that from man and unto woman two [plus] ten thousand all [the] people of Ai.
Jo-Ai duto machwo kod mamon alufu apar gariyo notho chiengʼno.
26 And Joshua not he drew back hand his which he had stretched out with the javelin until that he had totally destroyed all [the] inhabitants of Ai.
Joshua ne ok owe siemo Ai gi tongʼ mane otingʼo e lwete nyaka Israel notieko ji duto mane odak Ai.
27 Only the livestock and [the] booty of the city that they plundered for themselves Israel according to [the] word of Yahweh which he had commanded Joshua.
Jo-Israel to nokawo jamni gi mwandu mane giyako mar dala maduongʼno mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosechiko Joshua.
28 And he burned Joshua Ai and he made it a mound of perpetuity a desolation until the day this.
Omiyo Joshua nowangʼo Ai mi okete obedo pith mongingore mar kethruok kendo pod en kamano nyaka chil kawuono.
29 And [the] king of Ai he hanged on the tree until [the] time of the evening and just as went the sun he commanded Joshua and they took down corpse his from the tree and they threw it to [the] entrance of [the] gate of the city and they set up over him a heap of stones great until the day this.
Ne onego ruodh Ai mi oliere gi tol e yath kama noriyoe nyaka odhiambo. Kane ochopo odhiambo, Joshua nogolo chik mondo ogol ringre oko e yath kendo lware piny e dhoranga dala maduongʼ. Nodhur kuome kite mangʼeny ma pod ni kanyo nyaka chil kawuono.
30 Then he built Joshua an altar to Yahweh [the] God of Israel on [the] mountain of Ebal.
Eka Joshua nogero kendo mar misango e got Ebal ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel,
31 Just as he had commanded Moses [the] servant of Yahweh [the] people of Israel according to [what] is written in [the] book of [the] law of Moses an altar of stones complete which not anyone has wielded on them iron and they offered up on it burnt offerings to Yahweh and they sacrificed peace offerings.
mana kaka Musa jatich Jehova Nyasaye nosechiko jo-Israel. Nogere kaluwore gi gima nondiki e kitap Chik mar Musa niya, Kendo mar misango moger gi kite ma ok opa, gi gir nyinyo. Ewi kendono ema negichiwone Jehova Nyasaye misango miwangʼo pep kod misango mar lalruok.
32 And he wrote there on the stones copy of [the] law of Moses which he had written before [the] people of Israel.
Joshua nondiko chik Musa e kitego e nyim jo-Israel.
33 And all Israel and elders its and officials - and judges its [were] standing from this - and from this - of the ark before the priests the Levites [the] bearers of - [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh as the sojourner as the native half of it to [the] front of [the] mountain of Gerizim and half of it to [the] front of [the] mountain of Ebal just as he had commanded Moses [the] servant of Yahweh to bless the people Israel at the former [time].
Jo-Israel duto, jopinje mamoko kod jopinyno machalre, ka gin gi jodong-gi, gi jotendgi kod jongʼad bura nochungʼ e bath Sandug Muma mar singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye koni gi koni, ka gimanyore gi jo-Lawi ma gin jodolo. Nus mar jo-Israel nochungʼ kochomo got Gerizim, to nus mar jo-Israel mamoko nochungʼ kochomo got Ebal mana kaka Musa ma jatich Jehova Nyasaye nosechiko chon kane ochiwo nonro mar gwedho jo-Israel.
34 And after thus he read aloud all [the] words of the law the blessing and the curse according to every [thing] written in [the] book of the law.
Bangʼ mano, Joshua nosomo weche mag chik ma gin, gweth gi kwongʼ mana kaka ondikgi e Kitap Chik mar Musa.
35 Not it was anything from all that he had commanded Moses which not he read aloud Joshua before all [the] assembly of Israel and the women and the little one[s] and the sojourner[s] who went in midst their.
Onge chik Musa mane Joshua oweyo ma ok osomo ni kanyakla mar Israel duto, kaachiel gi mon, gi nyithindo, kod jopinje mamoko mane odak e diergi.
