< Joshua 11 >

1 When Jabin, king of Hazor, heard this, he sent a message to Jobab, king of Madon, to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Akshaph.
Epi li te vin rive ke lè Jabin, wa Hatsor a, te tande koze a, li te voye kote Jobab, wa Madon an, kote wa Schimron ak kote wa Acschaph,
2 He also sent the message to the kings who were in the northern hill country, in the Jordan River valley south of Kinnereth, in the lowlands, and in Naphoth Dor to the west.
ak wa ki te nan nò nan peyi kolin yo ak nan Araba a—-plis nan sid a Kinnéreth, nan ba plèn nan ak sou wotè a Dor nan lwès,
3 He also sent a message to the Canaanites to the east and west, the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites in the hill country, and the Hivites by Mount Hermon in the land of Mizpah.
vè Kananeyen yo nan lès ak nan lwès, Amoreyen yo, Etyen yo, Ferezyen yo ak Jebizyen yo nan peyi kolin yo ak Evyen yo nan pye Mòn Hermon nan peyi Mitspa a.
4 All their armies came out with them, a great number of soldiers, in number like the sand on the seashore. They had a great number of horses and chariots.
Yo te sòti, yo menm avèk tout lame yo avèk yo, fòs kantite moun tankou grenn sab bò lanmè, avèk anpil cheval ak cha.
5 All these kings met at the appointed time, and they camped at the waters of Merom to wage war with Israel.
Tout wa sila yo te reyini. Yo te vin fè kan an ansanm vè dlo a Mérom yo pou goumen kont Israël.
6 Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid in their presence, because tomorrow at this time I am giving them all to Israel as dead men. You will hamstring their horses, and you will burn their chariots.”
Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Jousé: “Pa pè akoz yo menm, paske demen nan lè sa a, mwen va livre yo tou mouri devan Israël. Nou va koupe jarèt cheval yo e brile cha yo avèk dife.”
7 Joshua and all the men of war came. They arrived suddenly at the waters of Merom, and attacked the enemy.
Konsa, Jousé avèk tout moun lagè yo te parèt sou yo sibitman toupre dlo Mérom yo pou atake yo.
8 Yahweh gave the enemy into the hand of Israel, and they struck them and pursued them to Sidon, Misrephoth Maim, and to the Valley of Mizpah to the east. They struck them until not even one survivor of them was left.
SENYÈ a te livre yo nan men Israël pou yo te genyen yo. Yo te kouri dèyè yo jis rive nan Gran Sidon, ak Misrepoth-Maïm avèk vale a Mitspa nan lès. Yo te frape yo jiskaske pèsòn pa t viv ladan yo.
9 Joshua did to them just as Yahweh told him. He hamstrung the horses and burned the chariots.
Josué te fè yo jan SENYÈ a te pale li a. Li te koupe jarèt cheval yo, e brile cha yo avèk dife.
10 Joshua turned back at that time and captured Hazor. He struck its king with the sword. (Hazor had been head of all these kingdoms.)
Epi Josué te retounen fè bak nan moman sa a pou te kaptire Hatsor e frape wa li a avèk nepe. Paske Hatsor, oparavan, te chèf an tèt tout wayòm sila yo.
11 They struck with the sword every living creature that was there, and he set them apart to be destroyed, so there was not any living creature left alive. Then he burned Hazor.
Yo te frape tout moun ki te ladann avèk lam nepe. Yo te detwi yo nèt. Pa t gen pèsòn ki te rete ap respire. Epi li te brile Hatsor avèk dife.
12 Joshua captured all the cities of these kings. He also captured all their kings and struck them with the edge of the sword. He completely destroyed them with the edge of the sword, just as Moses the servant of Yahweh had commanded.
Josué te kaptire tout vil a wa sila yo, ak tout wa yo. Li te frape yo avèk lam nepe e li te detwi yo nèt, jis jan ke Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a te kòmande a.
13 Israel did not burn any of the cities built on mounds, except Hazor. It alone Joshua burned.
Sepandan, Israël pa t brile okenn nan vil ki te kanpe sou pwòp ti mòn pa yo, sof ke Hatsor sèl, ke Josué te brile.
14 The army of Israel took all the plunder from these cities along with the livestock for themselves. They killed every human being with the edge of the sword until all were dead. They left alive no creature that breathed.
Tout piyaj lakay sila yo ak bèt yo, fis Israël yo te pran yo kòm byen sezi pa yo. Men yo te frape tout moun avèk lam nepe jiskaske yo te detwi yo. Yo pa t kite pèsòn respire.
15 Just as Yahweh had commanded his servant Moses, in the same way, Moses commanded Joshua, and so Joshua did it. He left nothing undone of all that Yahweh commanded Moses to do.
Jis jan SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse, sèvitè li a, konsa Moïse te kòmande Josué, e konsa Josué te fè. Li pa t kite anyen pa fèt nan tout sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la.
16 Joshua took all that land, the hill country, all the Negev, all the land of Goshen, the foothills, the Jordan River valley, the hill country of Israel, and the lowlands.
Konsa, Josué te pran tout teritwa sa a: peyi ti kolin yo ak tout Negev la, tout peyi Gosen nan, ba plèn nan, Araba a, peyi ti kolin Israël la ak ba plèn li,
17 From Mount Halak near Edom, and going north as far as Baal Gad in the valley near Lebanon below Mount Hermon, he captured all their kings and killed them.
soti nan Mòn Halak ki leve vè Séir, menm jis rive lwen nan Baal-Gad nan vale Liban nan pye Mòn Hermon. Konsa, li te kaptire tout wa yo, li te frape yo ba e te mete yo a lanmò.
18 Joshua waged war for a long time with all the kings.
Josué te pouswiv lagè pandan anpil tan avèk tout wa sa yo.
19 Not one city made peace with the army of Israel except the Hivites who lived in Gibeon. Israel captured all the rest of the cities in battle.
Pa t gen yon vil ki te fè lapè avèk fis Israël yo, sof ke Evyen ki te rete Gabaon yo. Se nan batay menm yo te pran yo.
20 For it was Yahweh who hardened their hearts so they would wage war against Israel, so that he might completely destroy them without mercy, just as he had instructed Moses.
Paske se te volonte SENYÈ a pou yo ta fè kè yo vin di, pou yo te rankontre Israël nan batay, pou Li ta kapab detwi yo nèt, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la.
21 Then Joshua came at that time and he destroyed the Anakim. He did this in the hill country, at Hebron, Debir, Anab, and in all the hill country of Judah, and in all the hill country of Israel. Joshua completely destroyed them and their cities.
Josué te vini nan tan sa a, e li te koupe Anakim yo nan peyi ti kolin yo, soti Hébron, soti Debir, soti Anab ak tout peyi ti kolin nan Juda yo e soti nan tout peyi ti kolin an Israël yo. Josué te detwi yo nèt avèk vil yo.
22 None of the Anakim were left in the land of Israel except at Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod.
Pa t gen Anakim ki te rete nan peyi fis Israël yo. Sèlman nan Gaza, nan Gath ak nan Asdod kèk te rete.
23 So Joshua captured the whole land, just as Yahweh said to Moses. Joshua gave it as an inheritance to Israel, assigned to each of their tribes. Then the land had rest from the wars.
Konsa, Josué te pran tout peyi a, selon tout sa ke SENYÈ a te pale a Moïse yo; epi Josué te bay li kòm eritaj a Israël selon divizyon pa yo selon tribi pa yo. Konsa, peyi a te gen repo kont lagè a.
