Joshua 8
1 Forsothe the Lord seide to Josue, Nether drede thou `withoutforth, `nether drede thou withynne; take with thee al the multitude of fiyteris, and rise thou, and stie in to the citee of Hay; lo, Y haue bitake in thin hond the king therof, and the puple, and the citee, and the lond.
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Yoswa, “Usachite mantha kapena kutaya mtima. Tenga gulu lonse la nkhondo, ndipo upite ku Ai. Taona, ndapereka mfumu ya Ai pamodzi ndi anthu ake, mzinda wake ndi dziko lake lonse mʼmanja mwako.
2 And thou schalt do to the citee of Hay, and to the king therof, as thou didist to Gerico, and to the king therof; sotheli ye schulen take to you the prey, and alle lyuynge beestis; sette thou `aspies, ethir buyschementis, to the citee bihynde it.
Mzinda wa Ai ndi mfumu yake muchite monga munachita ndi mzinda wa Yeriko ndi mfumu yake, koma katundu wa mumzindamo ndi zoweta mukazitenge ndi kuzisunga kuti zikhale zanu. Mukalalire mzinda wa Ai ndi kuwuthira nkhondo kuchokera kumbuyo.”
3 And Josue roos, and al the oost of fiyteris with hym, to stie in to Hay; and bi nyyte he sente thretti chosen thousynde of stronge men;
Kotero Yoswa ndi gulu lonse la nkhondo anakonzeka kupita ku Ai. Iye anasankha amuna 30,000 odziwa kumenya nkhondo bwino ndipo anawatumiza usiku
4 and comaundide to hem, and seide, Sette ye buyschementis bihynde the citee, and go ye not ferthere; and alle ye schulen be redi;
nawapatsa malamulo awa kuti, “Mvetsani bwino; mukabisale kuseri kwa mzindawo. Musakapite patali ndi mzindawo, koma nonsenu mukakhale okonzekera nkhondo.
5 forsothe Y, and the tothir multitude which is with me, schulen come on the contrarie side ayens the citee; and whanne thei schulen go out ayens vs, as we diden bifore, we schulen fle, and turne the backis,
Ine ndi gulu langa lonse tikayamba kuwuputa mzindawu, ndipo akadzangotuluka kudzalimbana nafe, ife tidzawathawa monga tinachitira poyamba.
6 til thei pursuen, and ben drawun away ferthir fro the citee; for thei schulen gesse, that we schulen fle as bifore.
Iwo adzatithamangitsa mpaka titawakokera kutali ndi mzindawo, pakuti iwo adzati, ‘Akutithawa monga anachitira poyamba.’ Pamene ife tizidzathawa,
7 Therfor while we schulen fle, and thei pursue, ye schulen ryse fro the buyschementis, and schulen waste the citee; and youre Lord God schal bitake it in to youre hondis.
inu mudzatuluke pamene mwabisalapo ndi kulanda mzindawo. Yehova Mulungu wanu adzakupatsani mzindawo.
8 And whanne ye han take it, `brenne ye it; `so ye schulen do alle thingis, as Y comaundide.
Mukakawulanda mzindawo mudzawuyatse moto. Mukachite monga mwa mawu a Yehova. Amenewa ndiwo malamulo amene ndakupatsani.”
9 And Josue lefte hem, and thei yeden to the place of buyschementis, and saten bitwixe Bethel and Hay, at the west coost of the citee of Hay. Forsothe Josue dwellide `in that nyyt in the myddis of the puple.
Yoswa atawatumiza, anapita ku malo wokabisalakowo ndipo anadikirira kumeneko. Malowa anali pakati pa Beteli ndi Ai, kumadzulo kwa Ai. Koma Yoswa anagona usiku umenewu pakati pa gulu lake lankhondo.
10 And he roos eerli, and noumbride felowis, and stiede with the eldere in the frount of the oost, and was cumpassid with the helpe of fiyteris.
Mmawa mwake, Yoswa anadzuka nayitana asilikali ake. Tsono iye pamodzi ndi akuluakulu a Aisraeli anatsogola kupita ku Ai.
11 And whanne thei hadden come, and hadden stied ayens the citee, thei stoden at the north coost of the citee, bitwixe which citee and hem the valei was in the myddis.
Gulu lonse la nkhondo limene linali ndi iye linatsogolako ndi kukamanga zithando pafupi ndi mzindawo chakumpoto mopenyana nawo. Pakati pa iwo ndi mzindawo panali chigwa.
12 `Sotheli he hadde chose fyue thousynde men, and hadde sette in buyschementis bitwixe Bethauen and Hay, in the west part of the same citee.
Yoswa anali atatenga asilikali 5,000 ndi kuwabisa pakati pa Ai ndi Beteli, kumadzulo kwa mzindawo.
13 Sotheli al the tothir oost dresside scheltroun to the north, so that the laste men of the multitude touchiden the west coost of the citee. Therfor Josue yede in that nyyt, and stood in the myddis of the valei;
Anakhazika anthuwo mokonzekera nkhondo. Gulu lalikulu la nkhondo linakamanga zithando zawo kumpoto kwa mzinda, ndipo gulu lina linakamanga zithando zawo kumadzulo kwa mzindawo. Usiku umenewo Yoswa anakagona ku chigwa.
14 and whanne the kyng of Hai had seyn that, he hastide eerli, and yede out with al the oost of the citee, and he dresside scheltrun ayens the deseert; and wiste not that buyschementis weren hid bihinde the bak.
Mfumu ya Ai itaona ankhondo a Yoswa, inachita zinthu mofulumira. Inadzuka mmamawa ndipo inapita pamodzi ndi anthu ake ku malo otsika oyangʼanana ndi Araba kuti akachite nkhondo ndi Aisraeli. Koma iyo sinadziwe kuti ayithira nkhondo kudzera kumbuyo kwa mzindawo.
15 Forsothe Josue and al the multitude `of Israel yauen place, feynynge drede, and fleynge bi the weie of wildirnesse; and thei crieden togidere,
Yoswa ndi Aisraeli onse anachita ngati agonja ndi kumathawira ku chipululu.
16 and excitiden hem silf togidere, and pursueden hem. And whanne thei hadden go awey fro the citee,
Anthu onse a ku Ai anawuzidwa kuti awapirikitse. Ndipo iwo anapirikitsadi Yoswa uja, ndi kupita kutali ndi mzinda wawo.
17 and sothely not oon hadde left in the citee of Hai and Bethauen, that `pursuede not Israel, and thei leften the citees opyn, as thei hadden broke out,
Palibe munthu wamwamuna wa mzinda wa Ai kapena wa Beteli amene sanatuluke kukapirikitsa Aisraeli. Iwo anasiya mzinda wosatseka ndi kumapirikitsa Aisraeli.
18 the Lord seide to Josue, `Reise thou the scheeld which is in thin hond, ayens the citee of Hay; for Y schal yyue it to thee.
Ndipo Yehova anati kwa Yoswa, “Loza mkondo uli mʼdzanja lako ku Ai pakuti ine ndipereka mʼdzanja lanu mzindawo.” Kotero Yoswa analoza mkondowo ku Ai.
19 And whanne he hadde reisid the scheld ayens the citee, buyschementis, that weren hid, riseden anoon; and thei yeden to the citee, and token, and brenten it.
Atangotambalitsa dzanja lake, anthu amene anabisala aja ananyamuka msangamsanga pamalo pawo ndi kuthamangira kutsogolo. Iwo analowa mu mzindamo ndi kuwulanda ndipo anawutentha mofulumira.
20 Forsothe the men of the citee, that pursueden Josue, bihelden, and siyen the smoke of the citee stie `til to heuene; and thei myyten no more fle hidur and thidur; most sithen thei that hadden feyned fliyt, and yeden to wildirnesse, withstoden stronglieste `ayens the pursueris.
Anthu a ku Ai aja atangochewukira mʼmbuyo anaona utsi uli tolotolo. Koma mpata woti athawireko panalibe pakuti Aisraeli amene amathawira ku chipululu anabwerera nayamba kuwathamangitsa.
21 And Josue siy, and al Israel, that the citee was takun, and the smoke of the citee stiede; and he turnede ayen, and smoot the men of Hay.
Yoswa ndi Aisraeli onse ataona kuti obisalira aja alanda mzinda ndipo kuti utsi unali tolotolo, iwo anatembenuka ndi kuyamba kupha anthu a ku Ai.
22 Sotheli also thei that hadden take and brent the citee, yeden out of the cytee ayens her men, and bigunnen to smyte the myddil men of enemyes; and whanne aduersaries weren slayn `on euer ethir part, so that no man of so greet multitude was sauyd,
Nawonso Aisraeli amene anali mu mzindamo anatuluka kudzalimbana ndi anthu a ku Ai. Choncho iwo anazingidwa mbali zonse ndi Aisraeli ndipo onse anaphedwa. Palibe amene anatsala wamoyo kapena wothawa
23 thei tokun also the kyng of Hay lyuynge, and brouyten to Josue.
kupatula mfumu ya ku Ai yokha imene anayigwira nabwera nayo kwa Yoswa.
24 Therfor, whanne alle men weren slayn, that pursueden Israel goynge to deseert, and felden bi swerd in the same place, the sones of Israel turneden ayen, and smytiden the citee.
Aisraeli aja atatha kupha anthu onse a ku Ai amene anali mʼthengo ndi mʼchipululu kumene anawapirikitsira, onse anabwerera ku Ai ndi kupha onse amene anali mu mzindamo.
25 Forsothe thei that `felden doun in the same dai, fro man `til to womman, weren twelue thousynde of men, alle men of the citee of Hay.
Chiwerengero cha anthu onse a ku Ai, amuna ndi akazi, amene anaphedwa pa tsiku limeneli chinali 12,000.
26 Sotheli Josue withdrow not the hond, which he hadde dressid an hiy holdynge `the scheld, til alle the dwelleris of Hay weren slayn.
Yoswa sanatsitse dzanja lake limene ananyamula mkondo mpaka ataona kuti onse amene amakhala mu mzinda wa Ai aphedwa.
27 Forsothe the sones of Israel departiden to hem silf the werk beestis, and the preye of the citee, as the Lord comaundide to Josue;
Tsono Aisraeli anatenga zoweta ndi katundu yense wa anthu ophedwa aja, monga momwe Yehova analamulira Yoswa.
28 which brente the citee, and made it an euerlastynge biriel.
Pambuyo pake Yoswa anawutentha mzinda wa Ai ndi kuwusiya bwinja monga ulili leromu.
29 And he hangide the king therof in a iebat, `til to the euentid and the goynge doun of the sunne. And Josue comaundide, and thei puttiden doun his deed bodi fro the cros; and thei `castiden forth him in thilke entryng of the citee, and gaderiden on hym a greet heep of stoonus, which heep dwellith `til in to present dai.
Iye anapachika pa mtengo mfumu ya Ai ndipo anayisiya mpaka madzulo. Pomwe dzuwa linalowa Yoswa analamula kuti akachotse mtembowo ndi kukawutaya ku chipata cha mzindawo. Pamwamba pa mtembowo anawunjikapo mulu waukulu wa miyala. Muluwo ulipobe mpaka lero lino.
30 Thanne Josue bildide an auter to the Lord God of Israel in the hil of Hebal,
Ndipo Yoswa anamanga guwa lansembe la Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli pa phiri la Ebala.
31 as Moises, the `seruaunt of the Lord, comaundide to the sones of Israel, and it is writun in the book of Moises lawe, an auter of stoonys vnpolischid, whiche yrun touchide not. And he offride theron brent sacrifice to the Lord, and he offride pesible sacrifices;
Analimanga motsata zimene Mose mtumiki wa Yehova analamulira Aisraeli, ndiponso potsata zomwe zinalembedwa mʼbuku la malamulo a Mose kuti guwa lansembe likhale la miyala yosasemedwa ndi chitsulo. Pa guwalo anapereka kwa Yehova nsembe yopsereza ndi nsembe yachiyanjano.
32 and he wroot on the stoonys the Deutronomye of Moises lawe, `which he hadde declarid bifor the sones of Israel.
Kenaka anthu onse akupenya, Yoswa analemba pa miyala chitsanzo cha malamulo amene Mose analemba.
33 Sotheli al the puple, and the grettere men in birthe, and the duykis, and iugis stoden on `euer either side of the arke, in the siyt of preestis and dekenes, that baren the arke of boond of pees of the Lord; as a comeling, so and a man borun in the lond; the mydil part of hem stood bisidis the hil Garasym, and the myddil part stood bisidis the hil Hebal, as Moises, the `seruaunt of the Lord, comaundide. And first `sotheli he blesside the puple of Israel.
Aisraeli onse, akuluakulu awo, atsogoleri awo ndi oweruza awo, alendo pamodzi ndi mbadwa, anayimirira mbali zonse ziwiri za Bokosi la Chipangano la Yehova, ena uku ena uku moyangʼanana ndi ansembe a Chilevi. Theka la anthu linayima patsogolo pa phiri la Gerizimu ndipo theka lina patsogolo pa phiri la Ebala, monga momwe Mose mtumiki wa Yehova anawalamulira mʼmbuyomo pamene anawapatsa malangizo podalitsa Aisraeli.
34 Aftir these thingis he redde alle the wordis of blessyng and of cursyng, and alle thingis that weren writun in the book of lawe.
Pambuyo pake Yoswa anawerenga mawu onse a malamulo, madalitso ndi matemberero monga momwe zinalembedwera mʼbuku la malamulo a Mose.
35 He lefte no thing vntouchid of these thingis that Moises comaundide; but he declaride alle thingis bifor al the multitude of Israel, to wymmen, and litle children, and to comelyngis that dwelliden among hem.
Yoswa anawerenga mawu onse amene Mose analamula, gulu lonse la Israeli limene linasonkhana likumva. Amayi, ana ndi alendo omwe okhala pakati pawo anali pomwepo.
