Joshua 2
1 And Joshua son of Nun sendeth from Shittim, two men, spies, silently, saying, 'Go, see the land — and Jericho;' and they go and come into the house of a woman, a harlot, and her name [is] Rahab, and they lie down there.
Na Joshua el supwala mwet luo liki acn Shittim in lukma, tuh elos in kalngeyuk in acn Canaan, yokna ke siti Jericho. Ke elos sun siti sac, elos utyak nu in lohm sin sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal, tuh elos in mongla we ke fong sac. Inen mutan sac pa Rahab.
2 And it is told to the king of Jericho, saying, 'Lo, men have come in hither to-night, from the sons of Israel, to search the land.
Tokosra lun Jericho el lohngak lah oasr mwet Israel tuku in fong sac in kalngeyuk in acn Canaan,
3 And the king of Jericho sendeth unto Rahab, saying, 'Bring out the men who are coming in unto thee, who have come into thy house, for to search the whole of the land they have come in.
na el sapla nu sel Rahab ac fahk, “Mwet ma tuku nu in lohm sum an ingan elos tuku in kalngei facl se inge! Supwaltalma!”
4 And the woman taketh the two men, and hideth them, and saith thus: 'The men came in unto me, and I have not known whence they [are];
A mutan sac el tuh usla mwet luo ac okanultalla. Na el fahk, “Pwaye oasr mwet tuku nu lohm uh, tuh nga tia etu lah elos tuku oya me.
5 and it cometh to pass — the gate is to [be] shut — in the dark, and the men have gone out; I have not known whither the men have gone; pursue ye, hasten after them, for ye overtake them;'
Tusruk elos som meet liki kauli mutunpot lun siti uh ke eku. Nga tia pac etu lah elos som nu oya. Kowos fin sa ukwalos kowos ku in sonolos.”
6 and she hath caused them to go up on the roof, and hideth them with the flax wood, which is arranged for her on the roof.
Sruhk el usalosyak okanulosla ye kahp in sak flax ma el filiya fin mangon lohm sel ah.
7 And the men have pursued after them the way of the Jordan, by the fords, and the gate they have shut afterwards, when the pursuers have gone out after them.
Ke mwet lun tokosra inge illa in ukwe mwet luo ah, na mutunpot ah kauli. Elos ukwe mwet kalngeyuk luo ah nwe ke elos sun sisken Infacl Jordan.
8 And — before they lie down — she hath gone up unto them on the roof,
Meet liki mwet kalngeyuk luo ah motulla in fong sac, Rahab el fanyak nu yoroltal nu fin lohm ah.
9 and she saith unto the men, 'I have known that Jehovah hath given to you the land, and that your terror hath fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land have melted at your presence.
El fahk nu seltal, “Nga etu tuh LEUM GOD El sot nu suwos facl se inge. Mwet nukewa in facl se inge elos arulana sangeng suwos.
10 'For we have heard how Jehovah dried up the waters of the Red Sea at your presence, in your going out of Egypt, and that which ye have done to the two kings of the Amorite who [are] beyond the Jordan; to Sihon and to Og whom ye devoted.
Kut lohng ke ma usrnguk LEUM GOD El tuh orala ke El akpaoyela kof ke Meoa Srusra ye motowos ke kowos illa liki Egypt. Kut lohng pac lah kowos uniya tokosra luo lun mwet Amor — Sihon ac Og — su muta kutulap in Infacl Jordan.
11 And we hear, and melt doth our heart, and there hath not stood any more spirit in [any] man, from your presence, for Jehovah your God, He [is] God in the heavens above, and on the earth beneath.
Ke kut lohngak ah kut arulana sangeng suwos, ac insiasr foroti. LEUM GOD lowos El God lun kusrao ac fin faclu.
12 'And now, swear ye, I pray you, to me by Jehovah — because I have done with you kindness — that ye have done, even ye, kindness with the house of my father, and have given to me a true token,
Inge fulahk nu sik ke Inen LEUM GOD lah kowos fah oru kulang nu sin sou luk, oana nga tuh oru kulang nu suwos. Ase sie mwe akul tuh ngan ku in lulalfongi komtal.
13 and have kept alive my father, and my mother, and my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and have delivered our souls from death.'
Wulela nu sik lah komtal ac molela papa tumuk ac nina kiuk, oayapa tamulel ac tamtael wiuk ac sou lalos nukewa, ac molikutla liki misa!”
14 And the men say to her, 'Our soul for yours — to die; if ye declare not this our matter, then it hath been, in Jehovah's giving to us this land, that we have done with thee kindness and truth.'
Na eltal fahk nu sel, “Kom fin tia fahkak ma kut oru inge, kut wulela nu sum lah ke God El ac fah ase facl se inge nu sesr, kut ac fah oru in wo nu suwos. Lela kut in misa kut fin tia oru oana ma kut fahk inge.”
15 And she causeth them to go down by a rope through the window, for her house [is] in the side of the wall, and in the wall she [is] dwelling;
Lohm sel Rahab oanna sisken pot in siti uh. Ke ma inge el koela mwet inge liki winto lal ke sucl soko.
16 and she saith to them, 'To the mountain go, lest the pursuers come upon you; and ye have been hidden there three days till the turning back of the pursuers, and afterwards ye go on your way.'
Na el fahk nu selos, “Kaingyak nu fineol uh, tuh mwet ukwe kowos ingan in tia konekowosyak. Wikwik we len tolu nwe ke na mwet ingan foloko, na kowos tufah som inkanek lowos.”
17 And the men say unto her, 'We are acquitted of this thine oath which thou hast caused us to swear:
Ac eltal fahk nu sel, “Kut fah karinganang wulela lasr nu sum, fal nu ke enenu lom nu sesr.
18 lo, we are coming into the land, this line of scarlet thread thou dost bind to the window by which thou hast caused us to go down, and thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all the house of thy father thou dost gather unto thee, to the house;
Pa inge ma kom enenu in oru. Ke pacl se kut ac foloko mweuni facl se inge, kom fah kapriya fu srusra soko inge ke winto se kom kwikutla we ah. Na kom fah eisani papa tomom ac nina kiom ac tamulel lom ac mwet nukewa in sou lun papa tomom nu in lohm uh.
19 and it hath been, any one who goeth out from the doors of thy house without, his blood [is] on his head, and we are innocent; and any one who is with thee in the house, his blood [is] on our head, if a hand is on him;
Kutena mwet fin illa liki lohm uh ac misa likinum uh, mwata ac fah oan facl sifacna ac wangin ip lasr kac. Tuh fin oasr mwet sun ongoiya ke elos mutana yurum lohm uh, oasr ip lasr kac, ac mwata ac fah oan facsr.
20 and if thou declare this our matter, then we have been acquitted from thine oath which thou hast caused us to swear.'
Tusruktu, kom fin fahkak nu sin kutena mwet ma kut oru inge, kut ac fah tia karingin wulela se su kom sap kut in wulela nu sum kac.”
21 And she saith, 'According unto your words, so it [is];' and she sendeth them away, and they go; and she bindeth the scarlet line to the window.
Rahab el insesela nu seltal ac supwaltalla. Ke eltal som, el kapriya fu srusra soko ah ke winto uh.
22 And they go, and come in to the mountain, and abide there three days until the pursuers have turned back; and the pursuers seek in all the way, and have not found.
Mwet kalngeyuk inge eltal som nu fineol uh ac wikla we. Mwet lun tokosra elos sokoltal in facl sac nufon ke lusen len tolu, tuh elos tiana konaltalak. Na elos folokla nu Jericho.
23 And the two men turn back, and come down from the hill, and pass over, and come in unto Joshua son of Nun, and recount to him all that hath come upon them;
Na mwet kalngeyuk luo ah tufoki liki fineol uh ac fahsr sasla Infacl Jordan ac folokla nu yorol Joshua. Eltal srumun nu sel ma nukewa ma tuh sikyak nu seltal.
24 and they say unto Joshua, 'Surely Jehovah hath given into our hand all the land; and also, all the inhabitants of the land have melted at our presence.'
Ac eltal fahk mu, “Pwayena LEUM GOD El ase facl sac nufon nu inpaosr. Mwet nukewa we arulana sangeng sesr.”
