Joshua 6
1 Meanwhile, the guards of Jericho shut the gates of the city tightly, because [they were afraid] of the Israeli [army]. No one was allowed to go into the city or go out of it.
Koro Jeriko nolor motegno nikech jo-Israel kendo onge ngʼama ne nyalo wuok oko kata donjo iye.
2 Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “Listen [to what I say]! I am going to enable your army [SYN] to capture/conquer [MTY] Jericho and its king and its soldiers.
Bangʼe Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ni Joshua niya, “Ne, asechiwo Jeriko gi ruodhe e lweti, kaachiel gi jolweny mage.
3 So your army must march around the city for six days, once each day.
Lworuru dala maduongʼno dichiel ka un gi giu mag lweny kendo timuru ma kuom ndalo auchiel.
4 Tell seven priests to march around with them. Each priest must carry a trumpet. Four other priests must carry the sacred chest, and they must walk behind the priests who are carrying the trumpets. On the seventh day, the army must march around the city seven times, and the priests must be blowing the trumpets while they march.
Beduru gi jodolo abiriyo motingʼo turumbete molos gi tunge imbe e nyim Sandug Muma. E odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo, lworuru dala maduongʼno nyadibiriyo, ka jodolo goyo turumbetego.
5 [After they have all marched around the city seven times], the priests must blow their trumpets [once], very loudly. When the Israeli people/soldiers hear that, they must shout loudly. Then the wall of the city will collapse, and all the Israeli people/soldiers will go straight into the city.”
Ka uwinjogi ka gigoyo turumbetegi matek, to ket ji duto ogo koko matek; bangʼe ohinga mar Jeriko nopodh piny kendo ji duto nodonj e iye.”
6 So Joshua summoned the priests and said to them, “Tell four priests to carry the chest [that contains] the Ten Commandments that Yahweh [gave to us]. [Tell] seven [other] priests to carry trumpets and walk in front of them.”
Omiyo Joshua wuod Nun noluongo jodolo mowachonegi niya, “Tingʼuru Sandug Muma mar singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo beduru gi jodolo abiriyo kotingʼo turumbete e nyime.”
7 And Joshua told the soldiers, “Start marching! March around the city, with several soldiers with weapons marching in front. Behind them will march the seven priests with trumpets, and behind them will march the four priests carrying Yahweh’s [sacred] chest.”
Eka nochiwo chik ne ji niya, “Dhiuru nyime! Lworuru dala maduongʼ, ka jolweny momanore gi gige lweny otelo e nyim Sandug Muma mar singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye.”
8 After Joshua told that to the army, the seven priests, each carrying a sacred trumpet, started marching, blowing their trumpets. The four priests who were carrying Yahweh’s sacred chest followed them.
Kane Joshua osewuoyo gi ji, jodolo abiriyo mane otingʼo turumbete abiriyo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye nowuotho ka gigoyo turumbete, kendo Sandug Muma mar Singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye ne luwo bangʼ-gi.
9 The group of soldiers carrying weapons marched in front of the priests who were blowing their trumpets, and the rest of the soldiers followed [the four men carrying] the chest. While [they were all marching], [the seven priests] were blowing their trumpets.
Jolwenygo notelo e nyim jodolo mane goyo turumbete, to moko ne luwo bangʼ Sandug Muma, kendo e kindeno duto turumbete ne ywak.
10 But [the rest of] the people [were silent, because] Joshua had commanded them, “Do not make a war cry. Do not yell or say anything until the day when I tell you to shout. On that day, you must shout [loudly]!”
Makmana Joshua nosiemo ji niya, “Kik uywag ywak mar lweny, kik utingʼ dwondu malo, bende kik uwach wach moro amora nyaka odiechiengʼ ma anakonue mondo ugo koko. Bangʼe eka unukogi!”
11 So the men carrying Yahweh’s sacred chest and all the others did what Joshua told them to do. They marched around the city once. Then they all returned to their camp and stayed there that night.
Omiyo negikawo Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye ka gilworogo dala maduongʼno dichiel. Bangʼe ji noduogo e kambi margi mi otienono ginindo kanyo.
12 The next morning, Joshua and the priests got up early, and the four priests carried Yahweh’s sacred chest [again].
Joshua nochiewo gokinyi mangʼich kinyne kendo jodolo nokawo Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye.
13 The seven priests who were carrying trumpets went in front of [the men carrying] the chest. The seven priests were blowing their trumpets as they marched. The group of soldiers carrying weapons went in front of all the others, and the rest of the army followed all the others. All the time, the seven priests were blowing their trumpets.
Jodolo abiriyo mane otingʼo turumbete abiriyo nodhi nyime, ka gipangore e nyim Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo ka gigoyo turumbete. Ji momanore gi gige lweny notelo e nyimgi, to moko ne luwo bangʼ Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye ka turumbete dhi nyime gi ywak.
14 So on that second day they again marched around the city once and then returned to their camp. They did the same thing for six days.
E odiechiengʼ mar ariyo negilworo dala maduongʼno dichiel bangʼe gidok e kambi kendo negitimo kamano kuom ndalo auchiel.
15 On the seventh day, they got up at dawn, and they all marched around the city the same way that they had done before, but this time they marched around the city seven times.
To chiengʼ mar abiriyo, ne gichiewo kogwen mi gilworo dala maduongʼno nyadibiriyo e yo machalre gi mamoko ka. Chiengʼno kende ema negilworo dala maduongʼno nyadibiriyo.
16 As they were marching around the seventh time, when the priests were about to blow the long/loud blast on their trumpets, Joshua commanded the people, “Shout, because Yahweh will enable you to capture the city!
E sa mane gilwore mar abiriyo ka jodolo ne pod goyo turumbete matek, Joshua nochiko ji kawacho niya, “Koguru matek, nimar Jehova Nyasaye osemiyou dala maduongʼni!
17 Yahweh has declared that you must destroy [IDM] the city and everything in it [to show that it belongs to him]. You must spare only Rahab the prostitute and the others who are in her house, because she hid the spies whom we sent there.
Dala maduongʼni duto, to gi gik moko duto manie iye nyaka wene Jehova Nyasaye. Makmana Rahab, mochot, to gi jogo duto manie ode ema nongʼwon-ne, nikech nopando joma ne waoro mane obiro nono piny.
18 And because Yahweh has declared that everything must be destroyed [IDM], you must not take [EUP] any of the things in the city. If you take anything, you will cause Yahweh to destroy our own camp and cause terrible things to happen to us.
To beduru mabor gi gigo mowene Jehova Nyasaye, mondo kik ukel kethruok ne un uwuon kuom gimoro amora kuomgi. Ka ok kamano to unumi kambi mar jo-Israel bed mar kethruok kendo ukel chandruok kuome.
19 But all the silver and gold and articles made from iron and bronze that you find, you must set apart for Yahweh. You must put those things in his treasury.”
Fedha gi dhahabu duto, kod gigo molos gi mula kod molos gi nyinyo owal ni Jehova Nyasaye kendo nyaka tergi kar keno mare.”
20 So they did what Joshua told them to do. When the priests blew a long blast on their trumpets, the people/army shouted loudly, and the wall of the city collapsed! Then the Israeli soldiers rushed in and captured the city.
Kane ogo turumbete, to ji ne goyo koko matek, kendo ka turumbete noywak, mi ji nogoyo koko matek, to ohinga mar Jeriko nopodho, omiyo ngʼato ka ngʼato nodonjo e dala maduongʼno mi gikawe.
21 They killed [IDM] every living thing in the city—men and women, young people and old people, even cattle and sheep and donkeys.
Negiwalo dala maduongʼno ni Jehova Nyasaye ma giketho gimoro amora kendo ginego gi ligangla ngʼato angʼata madichwo kata madhako, jomatindo kata joma oti, dhok gi rombe kod punde.
22 Then Joshua said to the two men (who had spied on/whom he had sent to learn all they could about) the land, “Go to the prostitute’s house. Bring her out, along with all her family, just as you promised to her.”
Joshua nowachone jonon piny ariyogo niya, “Dhiuru e od Rahab kendo ukele kaachiel gi joodgi duto, kaluwore gi singruok mane uketo kode.”
23 So those two spies/men went into Rahab’s house and brought her out. They also brought out her father and mother and her brothers, and all the rest of her family. Joshua’s men spared Rahab the prostitute. They also did not kill all her relatives, because she had hidden and protected the spies/men whom Joshua had sent to Jericho. The two men brought them all out and put them in a place outside the camp of the Israelis. Rahab still lives among us Israeli people. Then the soldiers gathered the articles made from silver, gold, bronze, and iron that they found and they put them all into Yahweh’s treasury. But they burned everything else that was in the city.
Omiyo rawere mane odhi nono pinyno nodhi Jeriko e od Rahab mi ogole kaachiel gi wuon-gi, min-gi, owetene kod joodgi duto. Negigolo anywolane duto oko mi giketogi oko mar kambi jo-Israel.
Bangʼe ne giwangʼo dala maduongʼno duto, to gi gimoro amora manie iye, makmana fedha gi dhahabu, gi gik molos gi mula kod molos gi nyinyo noketi e kar keno mar od Jehova Nyasaye.
Kamano Joshua noreso Rahab, dhako ma ochot, kaachiel gi anywolane nikech en ema nopando jonon piny mane Joshua ooro Jeriko kendo Rahab nodak e dier jo-Israel nyaka chil kawuono.
26 At that time, Joshua warned the people, “Yahweh will curse/punish anyone who tries to rebuild this city, Jericho. When that person lays/builds its foundation, his oldest son will die. And when he finishes building the city wall and sets up its gates, his youngest son will die.”
E sechego Joshua nolando kwongʼ makende niya, “Kwongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye nobed kuom ngʼat manitem gero dala maduongʼ mar Jeriko kendo kama: “Koketo mise mare, to wuode makayo notho, to kochungo dhorangeyege; to wuode mogik notho.”
27 Because of what happened that day, it was clear that Yahweh was with/helped Joshua, and Joshua became famous throughout the land.
Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye ne nigi Joshua kendo humbe nolandore e pinyno duto.
