< Joshua 10 >

1 Now when Adoni-Zedek, king of Jerusalem, heard that Joshua had captured Ai and had completely destroyed it (just as he had done to Jericho and its king), he also heard how the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living among them.
Aa ie jinanji’ i Adoni-tsedeke mpanjaka’ Ierosa­laime te rinambe’ i Iehosoa ty Ay naho nandrotsak’ aze; le manahake ty nanoe’e Ieriko rekets’ i mpanjaka’ey, ty nanoe’e i Ay rekets’ i mpan­jaka’ey; naho nifampilongo amy Israele o mpimone’ i Giboneo vaho fa aivo’ iereo ao.
2 The people of Jerusalem were very afraid because Gibeon was a large city, like one of the royal cities. It was larger than Ai, and all its men were mighty warriors.
Le nangebahebake iereo kanao posetse jabajaba ty Gibone, rovam-panjaka mandikoats’ i Ay, vaho fanalolahy iaby o lahilahi’eo.
3 So Adoni-Zedek, king of Jerusalem, sent a message to Hoham, king of Hebron, to Piram, king of Jarmuth, to Japhia, king of Lachish, and to Debir, king of Eglon:
Aa le nahitri’ i Adoni-tsedeke mpanjaka’ Ierosalaime amy Hohame, mpanjaka’ i Kebrone naho amy Pirame, mpanjaka’ Iarmote naho am’ Iafia, mpanjaka’ i Lakise vaho amy Debire, mpanjaka’ i Eglone, ty hoe:
4 “Come up to me and help me. Let us attack Gibeon because they have made peace with Joshua and with the people of Israel.”
Mionjona mb’ amako mb’etoa; antao tika handafa i Gibone amy t’ie nifampilongo amy Iehosoa naho amo ana’ Israeleo.
5 The five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon came up, they and all their armies. They set up their positions against Gibeon, and they attacked it.
Aa le nifañosoñe i mpanjaka lime’ o nte-Amoreo rey, ty mpanjaka’ Ierosalaime, ty mpanjaka’ i Kebrone, ty mpanjaka’ Iarmote, ty mpanjaka’ i Lakise vaho ty mpanjaka’ i Eglone rekets’ o valobohò’ iareo iabio, nitobe tandrife i Gibone ey vaho nialia’e.
6 The people of Gibeon sent a message to Joshua and to the army at Gilgal. They said, “Hurry! Do not withdraw your hands from your servants. Come up to us quickly and save us. Help us, for all the kings of the Amorites who live in the hill country have gathered together to attack us.”
Aa le nañitrik’ am’ Iehosoa e Gilgale añe ondati’ i Giboneo nanao ty hoe: Ko ageba’o amo mpitoro’oo o fità’oo; malisà! mionjona mb’ ama’ay mb’etoy, rombaho vaho oloro; amy te nifanontoñe haname anay ze hene mpanjaka nte-Amore mpimoneñe am-bohibohitse ao.
7 Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the men of war with him, and all the fighting men.
Aa le niavotse i Gilgale t’Iehosoa reketse ze hene lahindefo’e, toe o fanalo­lahi’e iabio.
8 Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them. I have given them into your hand. Not one of them will be able to stop your attack.”
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Iehosoa, Ko hembañe, ie fa natoloko am-pità’o; leo raik’ am’ondati’eo tsy hahafijohañe ama’o.
9 Joshua came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal.
Aa le nivovo am’ iereo t’Iehosoa fa nikatsakatsake haleñe boake Gilgale añe,
10 Yahweh confused the enemy before Israel, and Israel killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon and pursued them on the road going up to Beth Horon, and they killed them on the road to Azekah and Makkedah.
vaho navalitsi­kota’ Iehovà añatrefa’ Israele eo, le binaibai’e e Gibone am-pizamanam-bey; naho hinorida’e mb’ amy fitroara’ i Bete-koroney mb’ eo, vaho finofo’e pak’ Azekà naho Makedà añe.
11 As they ran away from Israel, down the hill from Beth Horon, Yahweh threw large stones down from heaven upon them all the way to Azekah, and they died. There were more who died because of the hailstones than who were killed with the sword by the men of Israel.
Aa ie nandripàke ty lay am’ Israele, amy fizotsoa’ i Bete-koroney le nahirirì’ Iehovà ama’ iereo ty vato gada­boñe boak’ an-dikerañey pak’ Azekà, vaho nikoromake; maro ty nampivetrahe’ i havandra gada­boñey te amo vinono’ o ana’ Israeleo am-pibarao.
12 Then Joshua spoke to Yahweh on the day Yahweh gave the men of Israel victory over the Amorites. This is what Joshua said to Yahweh before Israel, “Sun, be still at Gibeon, and moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.”
Le hoe t’Iehosoa am’ Iehovà amy andro nanolora’ Iehovà o nte-Amo­reo añatrefa’ o ana’ Israeleoy; hoe re ampahaisaha’ Israele, Ry andro, mijihera amy Gibone ey, naho ry volañe, am-bavatane’ i Aialone ey.
13 The sun stood still, and the moon stopped moving until the nation took vengeance on their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the middle of the sky; it did not go down for about a whole day.
Aa le nijihetse i àndroy vaho ni­tsan­gañe i volañey, ampara’ te niheneke ty fañondroha’ iareo amo rafelahi’ iareoo. Tsy fa sinokitse amy boke Iasarey hao? Nijohañe an-teñateñan-dikerañe ey i àndroy, va’e andro raike t’ie tsy nalisa niroñe.
14 There has been no other day like it before or after it, when Yahweh obeyed the voice of a human being. For Yahweh was waging war on behalf of Israel.
Mboe lia’e tsy teo ty andro taolo ndra nanonjohy ty nanahake aze, te nihaoñe’ Iehovà ty feo’ ondaty raike; amy te nialy ho a Israele t’Iehovà.
15 Joshua and all Israel with him returned to the camp at Gilgal.
Nimpoly amy zao t’Iehosoa, naho Israele iaby nindre ama’e mb’an-tobe e Gilgale añe.
16 Now the five kings had escaped and hidden themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
Fe nipoliotse i mpanjaka lime rey nietak’ an-dakato’ i Makedà ao.
17 It was told to Joshua, “They have been found!—the five kings hidden in the cave at Makkedah!”
Aa le nitaro­ñeñe am’ Iehosoa ty hoe: Nioniñe mietak’ an-dakato’ i Makedà ao i mpan­jaka lime rey.
18 Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave and place soldiers there to guard them.
Le hoe t’Iehosoa: Amariño vato jabajaba am-bava’ i lakatoy le ajadoño eo t’indaty hañambeñe iareo
19 Do not stay yourselves. Pursue your enemies and attack them from the rear. Do not permit them to enter into their cities, because Yahweh your God has given them into your hand.”
le ko tambatse eo, fa horidaño o rafelahi’ areoo vaho lafao o amboli’eoo; ko engañe hizilik’ amo rova’eo; amy t’ie natolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo am-pità’ areo.
20 Joshua and the sons of Israel had finished slaughtering them with a very great slaughter, until they were almost completely destroyed; only a few survivors who escaped reached the fortified cities.
Naho nihenefe’ Iehosoa naho o ana’ Israeleo ty fanjamanañe iareo am-pañohofan-doza ra’elahy, ampara’ t’ie fonga nimongotse vaho fa nimoak’ amo rova fatratseo o sehanga’eo,
21 Then the whole army returned in peace to Joshua at the camp at Makkedah. No one dared to say one word against any of the people of Israel.
le nimpoly mb’an-tobe mb’eo am-panintsiñañe ondaty iabio mb’ amy Iehosoa e Makedà mb’eo; tsy teo ka ty naniom-pameleke hitreatre ndra iaia amo ana’ Israeleo.
22 Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and out of the cave bring to me these five kings.”
Le hoe t’Iehosoa, Sokafo ty vava’ i lakatoy vaho aseseo amako boak’ an-dakato ao i mpanjaka lime rey.
23 They did as he said. They brought to him these five kings from the cave—the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
Aa le nanoe’ iereo; nakare’ iareo boak’ an-dakato ao i mpanjaka lime rey: ty mpanjaka’ Ierosalaime, ty mpanjaka’ i Kebrone, ty mpanjaka’ Iarmote, ty mpanjaka’ i Lakise, ty mpanjaka’ i Eglone.
24 When they brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned every man of Israel. He said to the commanders of the soldiers who had gone into battle with him, “Put your feet on their necks.” So they came up and put their feet on their necks.
Le nakare’ iareo mb’ am’ Iehosoa i mpanjaka rey, naho kinanji’ Iehosoa o lahindefo’ Israele iabio, le nanao ty hoe amo mpifelen-dahin-defo mpindre ama’eo: Mañarinea; apetaho am-pititia’ o mpanjakao o fandia’ areoo. Nañarine amy zao iereo vaho nanoe’ iereo am-pititia’ i mpanjaka rey o fandia’ iereoo.
25 Then he said to them, “Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed. Be strong and courageous. This is what Yahweh will do to all your enemies you are going to fight.”
Le hoe t’Iehosoa am’ iereo: Ko hembañe, ko mihakahaka, mihaozara naho mahavania; fa zao ty hanoa’ Iehovà ze rafelahy iaby hialia’ areo.
26 Then Joshua attacked and killed the kings. He hung them on five trees. They hung on the trees until evening.
Linafa’ Iehosoa amy zao iereo, vinono’e vaho nampandradoradoe’e an-katae lime; niradorado amy hatae rey am-para’ te haleñe.
27 When it was sunset, Joshua gave orders, and they took them down from the trees and threw them into the cave where they had hidden themselves. They put large stones over the mouth of the cave. Those stones remain there to this very day.
Ie nitsofots’ andro, le nandily t’Iehosoa, naho nazotso amo hataeo, naho navokovoko amy lakato nietaha’ iareoy, vaho nampipohañe vato jabajaba maro am-bava’ i lakatoy—pak’ami’ty andro toy.
28 In this way, Joshua captured Makkedah on that day and killed everyone there with the sword, including its king. He completely destroyed everyone in it. He left no survivor in it. He did to the king of Makkedah just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
Ie amy àndroy, rinambe’ Iehosoa ka t’i Makedà naho linafa’e an-dela-pibara naho nimongore’e i mpanjaka’ey, naho ze fonga ondaty ao; leo raike tsy nisisa; vaho nanoe’e amy mpanjaka’ i Makedày hambañe amy nanoa’e i mpanjaka’ Ierikoy.
29 Joshua and all Israel passed on from Makkedah to Libnah. He went into battle against Libnah.
Nienga’ i Makedà t’Iehosoa rekets’ Israele iaby naho nimb’e Libnà mb’eo vaho nialy amy Libnà;
30 Yahweh also gave it into the hand of Israel—along with their king. Joshua struck it with the edge of the sword and every person in it. He left no survivor in it. He did to its king just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
natolo’ Iehovà am-pità’ Israele ka izay naho i mpanjaka’ey le linafa’e an-dela-pibara naho ze fonga ondaty ao; tsy nampipoke sengaha’e, le nanoe’e amy mpanjaka’ey hambañe amy nanoe’e amy mpanjaka’ Ierikoy.
31 Then Joshua and all Israel with him passed on from Libnah to Lachish. He camped by it and waged war against it.
Nienga i Libnà t’Iehosoa naho Israele iaby, nomb’e Lakise mb’eo naho nitobe marine aze vaho nialia’e;
32 Yahweh gave Lachish into the hand of Israel. Joshua captured it on the second day and struck it with the edge of the sword, and every person in it, just as he had done to Libnah.
le natolo’ Iehovà am-pità’ Israele t’i Lakise; rinambe’e amy andro faha roey vaho linafa’e an-dela-pibara naho ze fonga ondaty ao, hambañe amy nanoe’e i Libnày.
33 Then Horam, king of Gezer, came up to help Lachish. Joshua attacked him and his army until there was not even one survivor left.
Aa le nionjoñe mb’e Lakise mb’eo t’i Korame mpanjaka’ i Gezere hañolots’ aze, le linafa’ Iehosoa ka naho ondati’eo am-para te tsy aman-tsehanga’e.
34 Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Lachish to Eglon. They camped by it and waged war against it,
Nienga i Lakise t’Iehosoa rekets’ Israele iaby le nimb’e Eglone mb’eo naho nitobe eo vaho nialia’e.
35 and captured it that same day. They struck it with the edge of the sword and they completely destroyed everyone in it, as Joshua had done to Lachish.
Rinambe’ iereo amy àndroy avao, vaho linafa’e an-dela-pibara; ie naho o fonga ondati’eo ro zina­ma’e amy àndroy, hambañe amy nanoe’e i Lakisey.
36 Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Eglon to Hebron. They waged war against it.
Nienga i Eglone t’Iehosoa naho nindre ama’e t’Israele iaby, nimb’e Kebrone mb’ eo le nialia’e.
37 They captured it and struck it with the edge of the sword, and its king and its villages, and everyone in it. They left no survivor it, as they had done to Eglon, they totally destroyed it and every person in it.
Rinambe izay naho linafa’e an-dela-pibara rekets’ i mpanjaka’ey naho ze hene rova’e naho ondati’e iabio; leo sehanga’e tsy napo’e, hambañe amy nanoe’e i Egloney, ie vata’e narotsa’e reketse ze fonga ondaty ama’e ao.
38 Then Joshua turned, and all the army of Israel with him, and they passed on to Debir and waged war against it.
Nibalike mb’e Debire mb’eo t’Iehosoa naho nindre ama’e t’Israele iaby vaho nialia’e;
39 They captured it, its king and all its nearby villages. They struck them with the edge of the sword and completely destroyed every person in it. They left no survivor. They did to Debir and its king as they had done to Libnah and its king and to Hebron.
ri­nambe’e rekets’ i mpanjaka’ey naho o ro­va’eo le linafa’ iareo an-dela-pibara naho namongotse ze fonga ondaty ao; leo sehanga’e tsy napo’e; manahake ty nanoe’e Amy Kebrone ty nanoa’e Amy Debire naho i mpan­jaka’ey, hambañe amy nanoe’e amy Libnày naho i mpan­jaka’eiy.
40 Joshua conquered all the land, the hill country, the Negev, the lowlands, and the foothills. Of all their kings he left not one survivor. He completely destroyed every living thing, just as Yahweh, the God of Israel, had commanded.
Aa le hene finofo’ Iehosoa o am-bohibohitseo naho i Atimoy naho i vavatanen-drano manganahanay naho o mpanjaka’e iabio; tsy napo’e sehanga’e fa fonga nimongore’e ze raha nikofòke, ty amy linili’ ­Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israeley.
41 Joshua struck them from Kadesh Barnea to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen to Gibeon.
Fonga linafa’ Iehosoa boake Kadese-barnea pak’ Aza naho an-tane Go­sene iaby pake Gibone.
42 Joshua captured all these kings and their land at one time because Yahweh, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
Rinambe’ Ieho­soa indrai-mipaoke i mpanjaka rey naho o tane’eo amy te nialy ho a Israele t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele.
43 Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, returned to the camp at Gilgal.
Aa le nimpoly mb’an-tobe’ i Gilgale mb’eo t’Iehosoa naho Israele iaby.
