< Joshua 8 >

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.
Ergasiis Waaqayyo Iyyaasuudhaan akkana jedhe; “Hin sodaatin yookaan abdii hin kutatin. Loltoota hunda fudhadhuutii ol baʼii magaalaa Aayi loli. Ani kunoo mootii Aayi, nama isaa, magaalaa isaatii fi biyya isaa harka keetti dabarsee kenneeraatii.
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.
Akkuma Yerikoo fi mootii ishee goote sana, Aayii fi mootii ishee illee goota; yeroo kana garuu boojuu fi horii ishee ofii keessanii fudhachuu dandeessu. Nama riphee magaalattii eegu karaa duubaatiin kaaʼi.”
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.
Iyyaasuu fi loltoonni hundinuus kaʼanii Aayin loluuf baʼan. Innis loltoota isaa warra jajjaboo keessaa nama kuma soddoma filatee halkaniin erge;
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.
akkanas jedhee isaan ajaje: “Mee qalbiidhaan na dhagaʼaa. Isin boroo magaalaatti riphxu. Guddiftanii irraa hin fagaatinaa. Hundi keessan qophaaʼaa.
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.
Anii fi warri na wajjin jiran hundi magaalaa sanatti dhiʼaanna; yommuu namoonni akkuma duraa sana fuula duraan nutti dhufan nu isaan duraa baqanna.
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.
Isaanis sababii, ‘Jarri kun akkuma duraa sana nu baqachaa jiru’ nuun jedhaniif, hamma nu magaalaa sana irraa isaan fageessinutti nu duukaa buʼu. Kanaafuu yommuu nu isaan baqannutti,
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.
isin immoo iddoo itti riphxanii kaatanii magaalaa sana qabattu. Waaqayyo Waaqni keessanis magaalaa sana harka keessanitti dabarsee ni kenna.
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.
Isin yommuu magaalaa sana qabattanitti ibidda itti qabsiisaa. Waan kanas akkuma Waaqayyo ajajetti hojjedhaa. Kunoo ani isin ajajeera.”
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.
Ergasii Iyyaasuun isaan erge; isaanis gara iddoo itti riphan kan gama baʼa Aayitiin Beetʼeelii fi Aayi gidduu jiru sanaa dhaqan; Iyyaasuun garuu halkan sana uummata wajjin bule.
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.
Guyyaa itti aanu ganama barii Iyyaasuun namoota ofii isaa walitti qabatee innii fi maanguddoonni Israaʼel namoota dura Aayitti ol qajeelan.
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.
Loltoonni isa wajjin turan hundinuu ol baʼanii fuula duraan magaalattiitti dhiʼaatanii karaa kaaba Aayitiin qubatan. Sululli tokkos isaanii fi magaalattii gidduutti argama ture.
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.
Iyyaasuun nama gara kuma shan fudhatee gama lixa magaalattiitiin Beetʼeelii fi Aayi gidduutti riphsiise.
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.
Isaanis namoota, jechuunis loltoota gama kaaba magaalattiitiin turan hundaa fi warra dugda duubaan gama lixaatiin riphanii turan iddoo iddoo isaanii qabsiisan. Iyyaasuun garuu gara sululaatti gad buʼee halkan sana achi bule.
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.
Mootiin Aayi yommuu waan kana argetti, innii fi namoonni magaalaa sanaa hundinuu iddoo Arabbaan olii tokkotti Israaʼelootaan wal waraanuuf ganama bariin ariifatanii baʼan. Inni garuu akka waraanni riphee dugda magaalaa sanaa duubaan isa eeggatu hin beekne.
15 And they were struck Joshua and all Israel before them and they fled [the] direction of the wilderness.
Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundi waan ariʼaman of fakkeessanii dugda duubatti deebiʼanii fuula isaanii dura gara gammoojjiitti baqatan.
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.
Namoonni Aayi hundinuus akka Israaʼeloota ariʼaniif walitti waamaman; isaanis Iyyaasuu faana buʼanii akkasiin magaalattii irraa fageeffaman.
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.
Namni Israaʼeloota faana buʼee ariʼuuf hin baʼin tokko iyyuu Aayi yookaan Beetʼeel keessatti hin hafne. Magaalattiis eegumsa malee hambisanii Israaʼeloota ariʼuuf baʼan.
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.
Waaqayyos Iyyaasuudhaan, “Sababii ani magaalattii harka keetti dabarsee kennuuf, eeboo harkaa qabdu gara Aayitti deebifadhu” jedhe. Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun eeboo isaa gara Aayitti deebifate.
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.
Akkuma inni waan kana godheen warri riphanii eeggachaa turan sun dafanii iddoo isaaniitii kaʼanii fuul duratti fiigan. Isaanis magaalattii seenanii qabatan; dafaniis ibidda itti qabsiisan.
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.
Namoonni Aayi yommuu garagalanii of duuba ilaalanitti aara magaalattii kan samiitti ol kaʼu argan; garuu sababii Israaʼeloonni duraan gara gammoojjiitti baqatan sun amma warra isaan ariʼaa jiranitti garagalaniif, jarri eessumattuu baqachuuf carraa tokko illee hin arganne.
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.
Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundinuu yommuu akka warri riphee eeggachaa ture sun magaalattii qabatee fi akka aarri magaalattii irraa kaʼu arganitti of irra garagalanii namoota Aayi dhaʼan.
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.
Namoonni riphanii turanis magaalaadhaa baʼanii isaanitti dhufan; kanaafuu Israaʼeloonni gamanaa gamasiin isaan marsanii jarri Israaʼeloota gidduutti qabaman. Israaʼeloonnis akka namni tokko iyyuu hin hafneef yookaan baqatee hin miliqneef isaan fixan.
23 And [the] king of Ai they captured alive and they brought near him to Joshua.
Mootii Aayi garuu lubbuudhumaan qabanii Iyyaasuutti fidan.
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.
Israaʼeloonni yommuu dhiirota Aayi hunda dirree fi gammoojjii jarri itti Israaʼeloota ariʼan sanatti qalanii isaan fixanitti, Israaʼeloonni hundinuu gara Aayitti dachaʼanii warra achitti hafes goraadeedhaan barbadeessan.
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.
Namoonni Aayi kanneen gaafasi dhuman dhiiraa dubartiin kuma kudha lama turan.
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.
Iyyaasuun hamma namoota Aayi keessa jiraatan hunda fixutti harka isaa kan diriirfatee ittiin eeboo qabate sana hin dachaafanne tureetii.
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.
Israaʼel garuu akkuma Waaqayyo Iyyaasuu ajajetti horii fi boojuu magaalattii qofa fudhate.
28 And he burned Joshua Ai and he made it a mound of perpetuity a desolation until the day this.
Akkasitti Iyyaasuun Aayin gubee tuulaa daaraa godhe hambise; hamma harʼaattis isheen akkuma barbadooftetti jirti.
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.
Innis mootii Aayi muka irratti fannisee hamma biiftuun lixxutti achumatti isa dhiise. Iyyaasuun yommuu aduun dhiitetti akka isaan reeffa isaa muka irraa gad buusanii karra magaalattii duratti darbatan isaan ajaje. Isaanis tuulaa dhagaa guddaa hamma harʼaattis jiru reeffa sana irratti tuulan.
30 Then he built Joshua an altar to Yahweh [the] God of Israel on [the] mountain of Ebal.
Ergasii Iyyaasuun Tulluu Eebaal irratti Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼeliif iddoo aarsaa ijaare.
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.
Iddoo aarsaa kanas akkuma Museen garbichi Waaqayyoo Israaʼeloota ajaje sanatti hojjete. Innis akkuma Kitaaba Seera Musee keessatti barreeffametti dhagaa hin soofamin kan sibiilli hin tuqiniin hojjete; isa irrattis aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeessanii aarsaa nagaas Waaqayyoof qalan.
32 And he wrote there on the stones copy of [the] law of Moses which he had written before [the] people of Israel.
Iyyaasuunis achumatti fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti, seera Museen barreessee ture sana dhagaa irratti garagalche.
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].
Israaʼeloonni hundinuu, alagaa fi dhalataan biyyaa, maanguddoota isaanii wajjin, ajajjoota loltootaatii fi abbootii seeraa wajjin, Lewwota luboota taʼan kanneen taabota kakuu Waaqayyoo baatan sanatti fuula deebifatanii bitaa mirgaan dhadhaabatan. Akkuma Museen garbichi Waaqayyoo akka isaan saba Israaʼel eebbisaniif jalqabatti isaan ajaje sanatti walakkaan isaanii Tulluu Gerziim dura dhadhaabatanii walakkaan isaanii immoo Tulluu Eebaal dura dhadhaabatan.
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.
Ergasiis Iyyaasuun akkuma Kitaaba Seeraa keessatti barreeffametti dubbii seeraa hunda kan eebbaatii fi kan abaarsaa ni dubbise.
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.
Dubbii Museen isa ajaje hunda keessaa wanni Iyyaasuun waldaa Israaʼel hundaaf akkasumas dubartootaaf, daaʼimmanii fi alagoota gidduu isaanii jiraataniif utuu hin dubbisin bira darbe tokko iyyuu hin turre.
