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.
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Nsuro anaasɛ mma wʼakoma nntu. Fa wʼasraadɔm no nyinaa na kɔto hyɛ Ai so, ɛfiri sɛ, mede Aihene, ne nkurɔfoɔ, ne kuropɔn ne nʼasase ama wo.
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.
Wobɛsɛe wɔn sɛdeɛ wosɛee Yeriko ne ne ɔhene no. Nanso, saa ɛberɛ yi deɛ, motumi fa asadeɛ ne anantwie no. Ma wʼasraafoɔ no nkɔtɛ kuropɔn no akyi.”
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;
Na Yosua ne Israel akodɔm no siim sɛ wɔrekɔto ahyɛ Ai so. Yosua yii akodɔm ɔpeduasa, somaa wɔn anadwo,
4 and comaundide to hem, and seide, Sette ye buyschementis bihynde the citee, and go ye not ferthere; and alle ye schulen be redi;
hyɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monkɔtɛ wɔ atɛeɛ a ɛwɔ kuropɔn no akyi na monyɛ krado mma ɔko.
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,
Sɛ yɛn asraafoɔ no to hyɛ Ai so a, Ai mmarima bɛfiri adi abɛko, sɛdeɛ wɔyɛɛ kane no, na yɛbɛdwane.
6 til thei pursuen, and ben drawun away ferthir fro the citee; for thei schulen gesse, that we schulen fle as bifore.
Yɛbɛma wɔataa yɛn ara kɔsi sɛ wɔn nyinaa bɛfiri kuropɔn no mu. Na wɔbɛka sɛ ‘Israelfoɔ no redwane sɛdeɛ wɔyɛɛ kane no.’
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.
Afei mobɛfiri mo atɛeɛ hɔ ntɛm so akɔfa kuropɔn no, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn de bɛma mo.
8 And whanne ye han take it, `brenne ye it; `so ye schulen do alle thingis, as Y comaundide.
Monto kuropɔn no mu ogya sɛdeɛ Awurade ahyɛ no. Monim deɛ ɛsɛ sɛ moyɛ.”
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.
Enti, wɔfirii hɔ anadwo no kɔtɛɛ Bet-El ne Ai atɔeɛ fam ntam. Nanso, Yosua deɛ, ɔkaa nnipa no mu wɔ wɔn atenaeɛ hɔ anadwo no.
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.
Adeɛ kyee anɔpahema no, Yosua nyanee nʼakodɔm maa wɔde wɔn ani kyerɛɛ Ai a Israel ntuanofoɔ ka wɔn ho.
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.
Wɔkɔbɔɔ atenaeɛ wɔ Ai atifi fam a bɔnhwa da wɔne kuropɔn no ntam.
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.
Anadwo no, Yosua somaa akodɔm mpem enum sɛ wɔnkɔtɛ Bet-El ne Ai ntam wɔ kuropɔn no atɔeɛ fam.
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;
Enti, ɔmaa akodɔm no mu fa kɛseɛ gyinaa kuropɔn no atifi fam a na atɛfoɔ no bi nso wɔ kuropɔn no atɔeɛ fam. Yosua ankasa deɛ, ɔtenaa bɔnhwa no mu anadwo no.
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.
Aihene hunuu sɛ Israelfoɔ no wɔ bɔnhwa no fa nohoa no, ntɛm so, ɔne nʼakodɔm nyinaa sɔree anɔpahema kɔtoaa Israelfoɔ no, to hyɛɛ wɔn so wɔ Araba. Nanso, na ɔnnim sɛ atɛfoɔ bi wɔ kuropɔn no akyi.
15 Forsothe Josue and al the multitude `of Israel yauen place, feynynge drede, and fleynge bi the weie of wildirnesse; and thei crieden togidere,
Yosua ne ne Israel akodɔm no dwane kɔɔ ɛserɛ no so yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Aifoɔ no adi wɔn so,
16 and excitiden hem silf togidere, and pursueden hem. And whanne thei hadden go awey fro the citee,
enti Aifoɔ no frɛɛ mmarima a wɔwɔ kuropɔn no mu no nyinaa ma wɔbɛtaa Israelfoɔ no. Ɛyɛɛ saa maa wɔn nyinaa firii kuropɔn no mu.
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,
Anka obi biara wɔ Ai anaa Bet-El a wankɔtaa Israelfoɔ, na wɔgyaa kuro no maa ano daa hɔ.
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.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Fa wo pea no kyerɛ Ai so, na mede kuropɔn no bɛma wo.” Enti, Yosua yɛɛ sɛdeɛ wɔhyɛɛ noɔ no.
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.
Yosua nyamaa atɛfoɔ no ara pɛ, wɔsɔree pankran bɔ wuraa kuropɔn no mu. Wɔfaa kuropɔn no na wɔtoo mu ogya.
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.
Aifoɔ no hwɛɛ wɔn akyi hunuu sɛ wisie kumɔnn aduru soro, na wɔannya baabi ankɔ, ɛfiri sɛ Israelfoɔ no a wɔdwane kɔɔ ɛserɛ so no danee wɔn ani taa wɔn.
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.
Ɛberɛ a Yosua ne Israelfoɔ a wɔaka no hunuu sɛ atɛfoɔ no afa kuropɔn no, na wisie ayɛ kumɔnn wɔ ewiem no, wɔdanee wɔn ho bɛto hyɛɛ Aifoɔ no so.
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,
Israelfoɔ a na wɔwɔ kuropɔn no mu firii akyire hyɛɛ aseɛ kunkumm atamfoɔ no. Enti Ai mmarima no dii nsensɛn mu na wɔn nyinaa wuwuiɛ. Anka obi biara.
23 thei tokun also the kyng of Hay lyuynge, and brouyten to Josue.
Ai ɔhene nko ara na wɔkyeree no anikann de no brɛɛ Yosua.
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.
Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ akodɔm kunkumm Ai mmarima a wɔpue firii kuropɔn no mu wieeɛ no, wɔsane kɔɔ kuropɔn no mu kɔkunkumm wɔn a wɔaka wɔ mu nyinaa.
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.
Enti ɛda no, wɔkunkumm nnipa a wɔwɔ Ai nyinaa; na wɔn ano si mpem dumienu.
26 Sotheli Josue withdrow not the hond, which he hadde dressid an hiy holdynge `the scheld, til alle the dwelleris of Hay weren slayn.
Yosua sɔɔ ne pea no mu saa ara kɔsii sɛ obiara a ɔte Ai no, wɔsɛee no pasaa.
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;
Anantwie ne agyapadeɛ a ɛwɔ kuropɔn no mu nko ara na wɔansɛe no; Israelfoɔ no ankasa faeɛ, sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Yosua no.
28 which brente the citee, and made it an euerlastynge biriel.
Enti, Ai bɛdanee mmubuiɛ esie ne asase bonini de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
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.
Yosua sɛnee Ai ɔhene wɔ dua bi so gyaa no dua no so kɔsii anwummerɛ. Owia kɔtɔeɛ no, Israelfoɔ no yii amu no de no kɔtoo kuropɔn no ɛpono ano. Wɔhyɛɛ aboɔ esie wɔ ne so a ɛda so wɔ hɔ bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
30 Thanne Josue bildide an auter to the Lord God of Israel in the hil of Hebal,
Yosua sii afɔrebukyia maa Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, wɔ Ebal bepɔ so.
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;
Ɔdii nkyerɛkyerɛ a Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade ɔsomfoɔ atwerɛ wɔ Mmara Nwoma no mu sɛ, “Fa aboɔ a wɔntwaeɛ na wɔmfaa adwinnadeɛ nsensenee ho si afɔrebukyia ma me.” Na wɔbɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ maa Awurade wɔ afɔrebukyia no so.
32 and he wroot on the stoonys the Deutronomye of Moises lawe, `which he hadde declarid bifor the sones of Israel.
Na Yosua twerɛɛ Mose Mmara no guu afɔrebukyia no aboɔ no so wɔ ɛberɛ a na Israelfoɔ no rehwɛ no.
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.
Afei, Israelfoɔ nyinaa, ahɔhoɔ ne ɔmanfoɔ, ntuanofoɔ, adwumayɛfoɔ ne atemmufoɔ nyinaa, wɔkyɛɛ wɔn mu akuo mmienu. Ekuo baako gyinaa Gerisim bepɔ ayaase ɛnna ekuo baako nso gyinaa Ebal bepɔ ayaase. Akuo mmienu yi dii nhwɛanimu. Na Lewifoɔ asɔfoɔ a wɔso Awurade Apam Adaka no gyinaa wɔn mfimfini. Wɔyɛɛ yeinom nyinaa sɛdeɛ Awurade ɔsomfoɔ Mose nkyerɛkyerɛ a ɔnam so hyiraa Israelfoɔ no teɛ.
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.
Afei, Yosua kenkanee nhyira ne nnome nsɛm a Mose atwerɛ wɔ Mmara Nwoma no mu no kyerɛɛ wɔn.
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.
Asɛm biara a Mose ahyɛ no, Yosua kenkan kyerɛɛ ɔman mu no a mmaa, mmɔfra ne ahɔhoɔ a wɔne Israelfoɔ no teɛ no nso ka ho.
