< 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.
Adoonii-Zedeq Mootiin Yerusaalem akka Iyyaasuun Aayin qabatee guutumaan guutuutti barbadeesse, akka inni akkuma Yerikoo fi mootii ishee godhe sana Aayii fi Mootii ishee godhe, akkasumas akka namoonni Gibeʼoon Israaʼeloota wajjin walii galtee nagaa godhatanii isaan bira jiraatan dhagaʼe.
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.
Sababii magaalaan Gibeʼoon akkuma magaalaa moototaa tokkootti magaalaa hangafa taateef innii fi namoonni isaa akka malee rifatan; magaalaan Gibeʼoon magaalaa Aayi caalaa guddoo turte; namoonni ishees loltoota jajjaboo turan.
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:
Kanaafuu Adoonii-Zedeq mootichi Yerusaalem sun Hoohaam mooticha Kebroonitti, Phiraam mooticha Yarmuutitti, Yaafiiyaa mooticha Laakkiishii fi Debiir mooticha Egloonitti ergee,
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.”
“Sababii isheen Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼel wajjin walii galtee nagaa godhatteef ol kottaatii Gibeʼoonin waraanuu na gargaaraa” jedheen.
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.
Kanaafuu mootonni Amoorotaa shananuu jechuunis mootiin Yerusaalem, mootiin Kebroon, mootiin Yarmuut, mootiin Laakkiishii fi mootiin Egloon humna waraanaa walitti dabalatan. Isaanis loltoota isaanii hunda fudhatanii ol baʼanii Gibeʼoonin marsanii waraanan.
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.”
Namoonni Gibeʼoonis qubata Gilgaal gara Iyyaasuutti ergaa erganii akkana jedhaniin; “Ati garboota kee hin dhiisin. Dafii nu qaqqabiitii nu oolchi; sababii mootonni Amoorotaa kanneen biyya gaaraa keessa jiraatan hundi nu waraanuuf loltoota walitti dabalataniif nu gargaari.”
7 Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the men of war with him, and all the fighting men.
Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun loltoota isaa hunda wajjin, namoota waraanaa jajjabeeyyii hundas dabalatee Gilgaalii ol baʼe.
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.”
Waaqayyos Iyyaasuudhaan, “Isaan hin sodaatin; ani harka keetti dabarsee isaan kenneera. Tokkoon isaanii iyyuu fuula kee dura dhaabachuu hin dandaʼan” jedhe.
9 Joshua came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal.
Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun Gilgaalii baʼee halkan guutuu deemaa bulee tasuma isaanitti dhufe.
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.
Waaqayyos fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti isaan burjaajesse; Israaʼeloonnis Gibeʼoonitti moʼannaa guddaadhaan isaan moʼatan. Karaa Beet Horoonitti geessu irra isaan ariʼaa hamma Azeeqaa fi Maqeedaatti isaan gogorraʼan.
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.
Utuma isaan Israaʼeloota duraa karaa Beet Horooniin gara Azeeqaatti gad baqachaa jiranuu Waaqayyo samiidhaa cabbii gurguddaa itti roobse; warra goraadee Israaʼelootaatiin dhuman caalaa kanneen cabbii kanaan dhumanitu baayʼata.
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.”
Gaafa Waaqayyo Amoorota dabarsee Israaʼelootatti kenne sana Iyyaasuun fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti Waaqayyoon akkana jedhe: “Yaa aduu, Gibeʼoon gubbaa dhaabadhu; yaa jiʼa, atis Sulula Ayaaloon gubbaa dhaabadhu.”
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.
Kanaafuu hamma sabni diinota isaa haaloo baafatutti aduun idduma jirtu dhaabatte; jiʼis ni dhaabate; wanni kun Kitaaba Yaashaar keessatti barreeffameera mitii? Aduun walakkaa samii keessa dhaabattee guyyaa tokko guutuu utuu hin dhiʼin turte.
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.
Guyyaan Waaqayyo nama dhagaʼe kan akkasii gaafasiin dura yookaan ergasii takkumaa taʼee hin beeku. Waaqayyo dhugumaan Israaʼeliif lolaa ture!
15 Joshua and all Israel with him returned to the camp at Gilgal.
Ergasii Iyyaasuun Israaʼeloota hunda wajjin qubata Gilgaal jiru sanatti deebiʼe.
16 Now the five kings had escaped and hidden themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
Mootonni shanan sun baqatanii holqa Maqeedaa keessatti dhokatanii turan.
17 It was told to Joshua, “They have been found!—the five kings hidden in the cave at Makkedah!”
Akka mootonni shanan holqa Maqeedaa keessatti dhokatan Iyyaasuutti himame;
18 Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave and place soldiers there to guard them.
innis akkana jedhe; “Dhagaa guddaa isaa afaan holqa sanaatti gangalchaatii akka isaan eeganiif namoota achitti ramadaa.
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.”
Isin diinota keessan ariʼaatii karaa dugda duubaatiin rukutaa malee hin dhaabatinaa! Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan dabarsee harka keessanitti isaan kenneef akka isaan magaalaawwan isaanii seenan hin godhinaa.”
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.
Kanaafuu Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hamma namni muraasni hafutti guutumaan guutuutti isaan barbadeessan. Warri hafan immoo magaalaawwan isaanii kanneen jajjabeeffamanii ijaaramanitti galan.
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.
Loltoonni hundi nagumaan gara qubata Maqeedaa gara Iyyaasuutti deebiʼan; namni tokko iyyuu afaan isaa Israaʼelootatti hin bananne.
22 Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and out of the cave bring to me these five kings.”
Iyyaasuunis, “Mee afaan holqa sanaa banaatii mootota shanan sana gad naa baasaa” jedhe.
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.
Isaanis mootota shanan sana jechuunis mootii Yerusaalem, mootii Kebroon, mootii Yarmuut, mootii Laakkiishii fi mootii Egloon holqa keessaa baasanii fidan.
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.
Yommuu isaan mootota kana shanan Iyyaasuutti fidan, inni namoota Israaʼel hunda walitti waamee ajajjoota loltootaa kanneen isa wajjin dhufaniin, “Kottaatii miilla keessaniin morma mootota kanneenii irra ejjadhaa” jedhe. Isaanis gara fuula duraatti baʼanii miilla isaaniitiin morma mootota sanaa irra ejjetan.
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.”
Iyyaasuun, “Hin sodaatinaa; abdiis hin kutatinaa. Jabaadhaa; cimaas. Wanni Waaqayyo diinota isin loluuf deemtan hunda irratti godhuuf jirus kanuma” jedheen.
26 Then Joshua attacked and killed the kings. He hung them on five trees. They hung on the trees until evening.
Iyyaasuun ergasii mootota sana dhaʼee ajjeesee mukkeen shan irratti isaan fannise; isaanis hamma lafti galgalooftutti akkuma muka irratti fannifamanitti turan.
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.
Yeroo aduun dhiitetti Iyyaasuun ajaja kenne; jarris mukkeen irraa gad isaan buusanii holqa isaan keessa dhokatanii turan sanatti isaan daddarbatan. Afaan holqa sanaa irras dhagaa gurguddaa hamma guyyaa harʼaatti illee achuma jiru naqan.
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.
Iyyaasuunis guyyuma sana Maqeedaa qabate. Innis magaalaa sanaa fi mootii ishee goraadeedhaan dhaʼee nama achi keessa jiru hunda fixe. Nama tokko iyyuu hin hambifne. Mootii Maqeedaas akkuma mootii Yerikoo godhe sana godhe.
29 Joshua and all Israel passed on from Makkedah to Libnah. He went into battle against Libnah.
Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni isa wajjin turan hundi Maqeedaadhaa baʼanii dhaqanii Libnaa lolan.
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.
Waaqayyos magaalaa sanaa fi mootii ishee dabarsee harka Israaʼelootaatti kenne. Iyyaasuun magaalattii fi nama ishee keessa jiru hunda goraadeedhaan fixe. Inni nama tokko illee achitti hin hambifne. Mootii ishee illee akkuma mootii Yerikoo godhe sana godhe.
31 Then Joshua and all Israel with him passed on from Libnah to Lachish. He camped by it and waged war against it.
Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundi isa wajjin Libnaadhaa kaʼanii Laakkiish dhaqan; isaanis magaalaa sana marsanii waraanan.
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.
Waaqayyos Laakkiish dabarsee harka Israaʼelootaatti kenne; Iyyaasuunis guyyaa lammaffaatti ishee qabate. Akkuma Libnaa godhe sana magaalaa sanaa fi warra ishee keessa jiraatan hunda goraadeedhaan fixe.
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.
Yeroo sanatti Hooraam mootichi Geezir, Laakkiish gargaaruudhaaf dhufee ture; Iyyaasuun garuu isaa fi loltoota isaa ni moʼate; namni tokko iyyuu hin hafne.
34 Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Lachish to Eglon. They camped by it and waged war against it,
Ergasiis Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundi Laakkiishii kaʼanii gara Egloon dhaqan; marsaniis ishee waraanan.
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.
Guyyuma sana ishee qabatanii akkuma Laakkiish godhan sana ishee fi nama ishee keessa jiru hunda goraadeedhaan fixan.
36 Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Eglon to Hebron. They waged war against it.
Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundis isa wajjin Egloonii kaʼanii gara Kebroonitti ol baʼanii ishee waraanan.
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.
Isaanis magaalattii qabatanii mootii ishee, gandoota isheetii fi nama ishee keessa jiru hunda goraadeedhaan fixan. Nama tokko iyyuu hin hambifne. Akkuma Egloon godhan sana ishee fi nama ishee keessa jiru hunda guutumaan guutuutti barbadeessan.
38 Then Joshua turned, and all the army of Israel with him, and they passed on to Debir and waged war against it.
Ergasiis Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundi isa wajjin of irra deebiʼanii Debiirin dhaʼan.
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.
Isaanis magaalattii, mootii isheetii fi gandoota ishee qabatanii goraadeedhaan fixan. Namoota ishee keessa jiraatan hundas guutumaan guutuutti fixan. Nama tokko iyyuu hin hambifne. Akkuma Libnaa, mootii isheetii fi Kebroon godhan sana Debiirii fi mootii ishee godhan.
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.
Iyyaasuunis akkasiin guutummaa biyya sanaa, biyya gaaraa, Negeebi, biyya gammoojjii, tabbawwan tulluutii fi mootota isaanii hundas moʼate. Inni akkuma Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel ajajetti waan hafuura baafatu hunda guutumaan guutuutti balleesse malee nama tokko illee hin hambifne.
41 Joshua struck them from Kadesh Barnea to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen to Gibeon.
Iyyaasuun Qaadesh Barnee irraa jalqabee hamma Gaazaatti, guutummaa biyya Gooshen hamma Gibeʼoonitti qabate.
42 Joshua captured all these kings and their land at one time because Yahweh, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel Israaʼeliif loleef Iyyaasuun mootota kanneenii fi lafa isaanii loluma tokkoon moʼate.
43 Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, returned to the camp at Gilgal.
Ergasii Iyyaasuun Israaʼeloota hunda wajjin gara qubata Gilgaalitti deebiʼe.
