Joshua 9
1 And whanne these thingis weren herd, alle the kyngis biyende Jordan, that lyueden in the hilly places, and in `the feeldi places, in the coostis of the see, and in the brynke of the greet see, and thei that dwellen bisidis Liban, Ethei, and Ammorrei, Cananei, and Feresey, Euey, and Jebusey,
Tango bakonzi nyonso (bakonzi ya bato ya Iti, ya Amori, ya Kanana, ya Perizi, ya Evi mpe ya Yebusi) oyo bazalaki na ngambo ya weste ya Yordani, kati na mokili ya bangomba, na etando mpe na mokili oyo ezalaki pembeni-pembeni ya Mayi monene Mediterane, pene ya Libani, bayokaki sango ya makambo yango,
2 weren gaderid togidere to fiyte ayens Josue and Israel, with o wille, and the same sentence.
basanganaki mpo na kobundisa Jozue mpe Isalaele.
3 And thei that dwelten in Gabaon, herden alle thingis whiche Josue hadde do to Jerico, and to Hay; and thei thouyten felli,
Tango mpe bato ya Gabaoni bayokaki makambo oyo Jozue asalaki na Jeriko mpe na Ayi,
4 and token to hem silf metis, and puttyden elde sackis on assis, and wyn botels brokun and sewid, and ful elde schoon,
basalelaki mayele mabe: babongolaki lolenge na bango, batiaki na likolo ya ba-ane na bango basaki epasuka-pasuka mpe bambeki ya kala ya vino oyo etoboka-toboka mpe babamba-bamba.
5 whiche weren sewid togidere with patchis, to `the schewyng of eldenesse; and thei weren clothid with elde clothis; also looues, whiche thei baren for lijflode in the weie, weren harde and brokun in to gobetis.
Balataki basapato ya kala oyo babamba-bamba mpe bilamba ya kala; mapa na bango ya kolia ezalaki biteni-biteni mpe ya kokawuka.
6 And thei yeden to Josue, that dwellide thanne in tentis in Galgala; and thei seiden to hym, and to al Israel togidere, We comen fro a fer lond, and coueyten to make pees with you. And the men of Israel answeriden to hem,
Bakendeki kokutana na Jozue kati na molako ya Giligali, mpe balobaki na ye mpe na bana ya Isalaele: — Towuti na mokili moko ya mosika; bosala boyokani elongo na biso.
7 and seiden, Lest perauenture ye dwellen in the lond, which is due to vs bi eritage, and we moun not make bond of pees with you.
Bato ya Isalaele balobaki na bato ya Evi: — Tango mosusu bozalaka kaka pembeni na biso! Ndenge nini tosala boyokani elongo na bino?
8 And thei seiden to Josue, We ben thi seruauntis. To whiche Josue seide, What men ben ye, and fro whennus camen ye?
Bazongiselaki Jozue: — Tozali basali na yo. Kasi Jozue atunaki bango: — Bozali banani mpe bowuti wapi?
9 Thei answeriden, Thi seruauntis camen fro a ful fer lond in the name of thi Lord God, for we herden the fame of his power, alle thingis whiche he dide in Egipt,
Bazongiselaki ye: — Basali na yo bawuti na mokili moko ya mosika penza, likolo ya sango na Yawe, Nzambe na bino. Pamba te toyokaki sango na Ye mpo na makambo nyonso oyo asalaki kati na Ejipito
10 and to twei kyngis of Ammorreis biyendis Jordan; to Seon king of Esebon, and to Og kyng of Basan, that weren in Astroth.
mpe epai ya bakonzi mibale ya bato ya Amori oyo bazalaki na ngambo ya este ya Yordani: Sikoni, mokonzi ya Eshiboni, mpe Ogi, mokonzi ya Bashani, oyo azalaki kovanda na Ashitaroti.
11 And the eldere men and alle the dwelleris of oure lond seiden to vs, Take ye metis in youre hondis, for lengeste weie; and go ye to hem, and seie ye, We ben youre seruauntis; make ye boond of pees with vs.
Bampaka na biso mpe bavandi nyonso ya mokili na biso balobaki na biso: « Bokamata biloko ya kolia na nzela, bokende kokutana na bango mpe boyebisa bango: ‹ Tozali basali na bino, bosala boyokani elongo na biso. › »
12 And we token hoote looues, whanne we yeden out of oure housis to come to you; now tho ben maad drye and brokun, for greet eldenesse;
Tala kutu mapa na biso, ezalaki ya moto tango tobongisaki yango na bandako na biso lokola bilei ya mobembo, na mokolo oyo tolongwaki mpo ete toya epai na bino. Kasi sik’oyo tala ndenge nini esili kokawuka mpe kokoma biteni-biteni.
13 we filliden newe botels of wyn; now tho ben brokun and vndoon; the clothis and schoon, with whiche we ben clothid, and whiche we han `in the feet, ben brokun and almost wastid, fro the lengthe of lengere weie.
Mpe lisusu, totondisaki bambeki oyo na vino tango ezalaki nanu ya sika, kasi tala sik’oyo ndenge nini esili kopasuka-pasuka mpe tala ndenge nini bilamba mpe basapato na biso esili kokufa mpo ete nzela ya mobembo eleki molayi.
14 Therfor `the sones of Israel token of the metis of hem, and thei axiden not `the mouth of the Lord.
Bana ya Isalaele bazwaki bilei oyo bato ya Gabaoni bayaki na yango, kasi batunaki Yawe te.
15 And Josue made pees with hem. And whanne the boond of pees was maad, he bihiyte, that thei schulden not be slayn; and the princes of the multitude sworen to hem.
Jozue asalaki elongo na bango boyokani ya kimia; alakaki ete akoboma bango te. Mpe bakambi ya lisanga ya Isalaele bandimaki yango na kolapa ndayi.
16 Forsothe aftir thre daies of the boond of pees maad, thei herden, that thei dwelliden in nyy place, and that thei schulden be among hem.
Nzokande, mikolo misato sima na kosala boyokani elongo na bato ya Gabaoni, bana ya Isalaele bayokaki ete bato yango bazalaka pene na bango mpe bavandaka kati na bango.
17 And the sones of Israel mouyden tentis, and camen in the thridde dai in to the citees of hem, of whiche citees these ben the names; Gabaon, and Caphira, and Beroth, and Cariathiarym.
Boye, bana ya Isalaele batelemaki mpo na kokende; mpe na mokolo ya misato, bakomaki na bingumba na bango: Gabaoni, Kefira, Beyeroti mpe Kiriati-Yearimi.
18 And thei smytiden not hem, for the princis of the multitude hadden swore to hem in the name of the Lord God of Israel. Therfor al the comyn puple grutchide ayens the princis of Israel;
Kasi bana ya Isalaele babundisaki bango te, pamba te bakambi ya lisanga balapaki ndayi mpo na bango na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele. Boye, lisanga mobimba ekomaki koyimayima mpo na bakambi.
19 whiche answeriden to hem, We sworen to hem in the name of the Lord God of Israel, and therfor we moun not touche hem;
Kasi bakambi nyonso balobaki na lisanga mobimba: « Solo, tolapaki ndayi mpo na bango na Kombo na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele. Boye, tokoki kosala bango mabe te.
20 but we schulen do this thing to hem, sotheli be thei reserued that thei lyue, lest the ire of the Lord be stirid ayens vs, if we forsweren to hem;
Kasi tala ndenge nini tokoki kosala bango: Tokotika bango kobika mpo ete kanda na Nzambe ekitela biso te, pamba te tolapaki ndayi na tina na bango. »
21 but so lyue thei, that thei hewe trees, and bere watris, in to the vsis of al the multitude. And while thei spaken these thingis,
Bakambi babakisaki lisusu: « Tika ete bazala na bomoi, kasi bakobanda kokata banzete mpe kotoka mayi mpo na lisanga mobimba. » Wana nde ezalaki mokano oyo bakambi bazwaki.
22 Josue clepide Gabonytis, and seide to hem, Whi wolden ye disseyue vs bi fraude, `that ye seiden, We dwellen ful fer fro you, sithen ye ben in the myddis of vs?
Jozue abengisaki bato ya Gabaoni mpe atunaki bango: — Mpo na nini bokosaki biso na koloba: « Tovandaka mosika na bino, » nzokande bovandi kaka pene na biso awa?
23 Therfor ye schulen be `vndur cursyng, and noon schal faile of youre generacioun, hewynge trees and berynge watris, in to the hows of my God.
Bozali sik’oyo na se ya elakeli mabe mpe bokotikala libela kozala bawumbu; bokobanda kokataka bakoni mpe kotokaka mayi mpo na Ndako ya Nzambe na ngai.
24 Whiche answeryden, It was told to vs thi seruauntis, that thi Lord God bihiyte to Moises, his seruaunt, that he schulde bitake to you al the lond, and schulde leese alle the dwelleris therof; therfor we dredden greetli, and purueiden to oure lyues, and weren compellid bi youre drede, and we token this counsel.
Bazongiselaki Jozue: — Basali na yo bayokaki sango ya mitindo oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apesaki epai ya mosali na Ye Moyize, ete akopesa bino mokili oyo nyonso mpe akoboma bato na yango nyonso liboso na bino. Boye, tozalaki na somo makasi ya kobungisa bomoi na biso liboso na bino; yango wana tosalaki bongo.
25 `Now forsothe we ben in `thin hond; do thou to vs that, that semeth riytful and good to thee.
Tala biso oyo, tomitiki na maboko na yo; nyonso oyo okomona malamu mpe sembo na miso na yo, sala biso yango.
26 Therfor Josue dide, as he seide, and delyuerede hem fro the hondis of the sones of Israel, that thei schulden not be slayn.
Jozue abikisaki bango na maboko ya bana ya Isalaele, mpe babomaki bango te.
27 And in that dai Josue demyde hem to be in to the seruyce of al the puple, and of the auter of the Lord, and to hewe trees, and to bere watris, `til in to present tyme, in the place which the Lord hadde chose.
Na mokolo wana, Jozue akomisaki bango bawumbu mpo na kokata bakoni mpe kotoka mayi mpo na lisanga ya Isalaele mpe mpo na etumbelo ya Yawe, kino na mokolo ya lelo, na esika nyonso oyo Yawe akopona.
