< Joshua 6 >
1 (And Jericho shutteth itself up, and is shut up, because of the presence of the sons of Israel — none going out, and none coming in; )
Bikuke ya engumba Jeriko ezalaki ya kokangama makasi penza mpo na bana ya Isalaele; moto moko te akokaki kokota to kobima.
2 And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, 'See, I have given into thy hand Jericho and its king — mighty ones of valour,
Yawe alobaki na Jozue: — Tala, na maboko na yo, nasili kokaba Jeriko elongo na mokonzi na yango mpe bilombe na yango ya bitumba.
3 and ye have compassed the city — all the men of battle — going round the city once; thus thou dost six days;
Botambola zingazinga ya engumba mbala moko na mokolo, yo elongo na bato nyonso ya etumba. Bosala bongo mikolo motoba.
4 and seven priests do bear seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark, and on the seventh day ye compass the city seven times, and the priests blow with the trumpets,
Kamata Banganga-Nzambe sambo; Nganga-Nzambe moko na moko asengeli komema kelelo moko basala na liseke ya meme. Banganga-Nzambe nyonso sambo basengeli kotambola liboso ya Sanduku. Na mokolo ya sambo, bobaluka zingazinga ya engumba mbala sambo, elongo na Banganga-Nzambe oyo bakozala kobeta bakelelo.
5 and it hath been, in the prolongation of the horn of the jubilee, in your hearing the voice of the trumpet, all the people shout — a great shout, and the wall of the city hath fallen under it, and the people have gone up, each over-against him.'
Tango lolaka ya bakelelo yango ekoyokana tango molayi, tika ete bato nyonso baganga makasi; bongo mir ya engumba ekokweya na pwasa, mpe moto na moto akokota na engumba, na esika oyo akozala.
6 And Joshua son of Nun calleth unto the priests, and saith unto them, 'Bear ye the ark of the covenant, and seven priests do bear seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark of Jehovah;'
Boye Jozue, mwana mobali ya Nuni, abengaki Banganga-Nzambe mpe alobaki na bango: — Bomema Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe, mpe tika ete Banganga-Nzambe sambo kati na bino bakamata bakelelo sambo mpe batambola liboso ya Sanduku ya Yawe.
7 and He said unto the people, 'Pass over, and compass the city, and he who is armed doth pass over before the ark of Jehovah.'
Bongo apesaki mitindo oyo epai ya bana ya Isalaele: — Bokende liboso! Botambola zingazinga ya engumba, mpe tika ete basoda oyo bazalaka na liboso, na etumba, baleka liboso ya Sanduku ya Yawe.
8 And it cometh to pass, when Joshua speaketh unto the people, that the seven priests bearing seven trumpets of the jubilee before Jehovah have passed over and blown with the trumpets, and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah is going after them;
Tango Jozue asilisaki koloba na bato, Banganga-Nzambe sambo, oyo bakamataki bakelelo sambo liboso ya Yawe, balekaki liboso mpe bakomaki kobeta yango, wana Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe ezalaki kolanda bango na sima.
9 and he who is armed is going before the priests blowing the trumpets, and he who is gathering up is going after the ark, going on and blowing with the trumpets;
Basoda oyo bazalaka na liboso, na bitumba, bazalaki kotambola liboso ya Banganga-Nzambe oyo bazalaki kobeta bakelelo; bongo basoda oyo batikalaka na sima, bazalaki kolanda Sanduku ya Boyokani. Na tango wana nyonso, bakelelo ezalaki kaka kobeta.
10 and the people hath Joshua commanded, saying, 'Ye do not shout, nor cause your voice to be heard, nor doth there go out from your mouth a word, till the day of my saying unto you, Shout ye — then ye have shouted.'
Kasi Jozue apesaki mitindo oyo epai ya bana ya Isalaele: — Boganga te, boloba mpe eloko moko te! Bovanda kaka kimia kino tango nakoloba na bino ete boganga makasi; wana nde bokoganga makasi.
11 And the ark of Jehovah doth compass the city, going round once, and they come into the camp, and lodge in the camp.
Boye, Sanduku ya Yawe ezalaki kotambola zingazinga ya engumba mbala moko na mokolo; bongo na sima, bato bazalaki kozonga na molako mpo na kolekisa butu.
12 And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and the priests bear the ark of Jehovah,
Na tongo-tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, Jozue alamukaki, mpe Banganga-Nzambe bamemaki Sanduku ya Yawe.
13 and seven priests bearing seven trumpets of the jubilee before the ark of Jehovah are walking, going on, and they have blown with the trumpets — and he who is armed is going before them, and he who is gathering up is going behind the ark of Jehovah — going on and blowing with the trumpets.
Banganga-Nzambe sambo oyo basimbaki bakelelo sambo balekaki liboso, batambolaki liboso ya Sanduku ya Yawe, na kobeta bakelelo. Basoda oyo bazalaka na liboso, na bitumba, balekaki liboso na bango; mpe basoda oyo batikalaka na sima bazalaki kolanda Sanduku ya Yawe, wana bakelelo ezalaki kobeta.
14 And they compass the city on the second day once, and turn back to the camp; thus they have done six days.
Na mokolo ya mibale, babalukaki lisusu engumba mbala moko; bongo na sima, bazongaki na molako. Boye, basalaki bongo mikolo motoba.
15 And it cometh to pass, on the seventh day, that they rise early, at the ascending of the dawn, and compass the city, according to this manner, seven times; (only, on that day they have compassed the city seven times);
Na mokolo ya sambo, balamukaki na tongo-tongo mpe babalukaki zingazinga ya engumba mbala sambo, ndenge kaka bazalaki kosala. Ezalaki kaka mokolo wana nde babalukaki mbala sambo zingazinga ya engumba.
16 and it cometh to pass, at the seventh time, the priests have blown with the trumpets, and Joshua saith unto the people, 'Shout ye, for Jehovah hath given to you the city;
Na mbala oyo ya sambo, tango Banganga-Nzambe babetaki bakelelo tango molayi, Jozue apesaki mitindo epai ya bato: — Boganga makasi, pamba te Yawe akabi engumba oyo na maboko na bino!
17 and the city hath been devoted, it and all that [is] in it, to Jehovah; only Rahab the harlot doth live, she and all who [are] with her in the house, for she hid the messengers whom we sent;
Bobebisa mpo na Yawe engumba oyo nyonso elongo na biloko nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango. Bobikisa kaka Raabi, mwasi ya ndumba, elongo na bato na ye nyonso oyo bakozala kati na ndako na ye, pamba te abombaki banongi oyo totindaki.
18 and surely ye have kept from the devoted thing, lest ye devote [yourselves], and have taken from the devoted thing, and have made the camp of Israel become a devoted thing, and have troubled it;
Kasi bosala keba na tina na biloko oyo ekabami mpo na kobebisama, mpo ete bomilukela pasi te na koluka kokamata ata eloko moko kati na yango, noki te bokomema lisuma oyo ekobebisa molako ya Isalaele mpe bokotia yango na mobulu.
19 and all the silver and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, holy they [are] to Jehovah; into the treasury of Jehovah they come.'
Kasi palata, wolo mpe biloko nyonso ya bronze elongo na bibende ekobulisama mpo na Yawe mpe esengeli kokende na ebombelo bomengo ya Yawe.
20 And the people shout, and blow with the trumpets, and it cometh to pass when the people hear the voice of the trumpet, that the people shout — a great shout, and the wall falleth under it, and the people goeth up into the city, each over-against him, and they capture the city;
Tango babetaki bakelelo, bato bagangaki makasi. Bongo, tango bato bagangaki makasi sima na koyoka lolaka ya kelelo kobeta tango molayi, mir ya engumba ekweyaki na pwasa. Boye, moto nyonso akotaki na engumba, liboso na ye, mpe babotolaki yango.
21 and they devote all that [is] in the city, from man even unto woman, from young even unto aged, even unto ox, and sheep, and ass, by the mouth of the sword.
Babomaki na mopanga, nyonso oyo ezalaki kati na engumba: mobali to mwasi, elenge to mobange, ngombe to meme to mpe ane.
22 And to the two men who are spying the land Joshua said, 'Go into the house of the woman, the harlot, and bring out thence the woman, and all whom she hath, as ye have sworn to her.'
Jozue alobaki na bato mibale oyo banongaki Jeriko: — Bokota na ndako ya mwasi ya ndumba, bobimisa ye libanda elongo na bato na ye nyonso, kolanda ndayi oyo bolapaki liboso na ye.
23 And the young man, the spies, go in and bring out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all whom she hath; yea, all her families they have brought out, and place them at the outside of the camp of Israel.
Boye, bilenge mibali oyo bakendeki kononga mokili bakotaki mpe babimisaki Raabi, tata na ye, mama na ye, bandeko na ye ya mibali mpe biloko na ye nyonso. Babimisaki libota na ye mobimba na libanda mpe batiaki bango libanda ya molako ya Isalaele.
24 And the city they have burnt with fire, and all that [is] in it; only, the silver and the gold, and the vessels of brass, and of iron, they have given [to] the treasury of the house of Jehovah;
Batumbaki engumba mobimba elongo na biloko nyonso oyo ezalaki kati na yango, longola kaka palata mpe wolo, bisalelo nyonso ya bronze mpe ya bibende oyo batiaki na ebombelo bomengo ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
25 and Rahab the harlot, and the house of her father, and all whom she hath, hath Joshua kept alive; and she dwelleth in the midst of Israel unto this day, for she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Jozue abikisaki Raabi, mwasi ya ndumba, libota na ye mpe bato na ye nyonso, pamba te abombaki bato oyo Jozue atindaki mpo na kononga Jeriko. Boye, akomaki kovanda kati na bana ya Isalaele kino na mokolo ya lelo.
26 And Joshua adjureth [them] at that time, saying, 'Cursed [is] the man before Jehovah who raiseth up and hath built this city, [even] Jericho; in his first-born he doth lay its foundation, and in his youngest he doth set up its doors;'
Kaka na tango yango, Jozue akataki seleka oyo: « Tika ete moto oyo akoluka kotonga lisusu engumba Jeriko alakelama mabe liboso ya Yawe! Solo, akofuta motuya ya bomoi ya mwana na ye ya liboso ya mobali, tango akotonga miboko na yango; mpe motuya ya bomoi ya mwana na ye ya suka, tango akotia bikuke na yango. »
27 and Jehovah is with Joshua, and his fame is in all the land.
Yawe azalaki elongo na Jozue, mpe sango na ye epanzanaki mokili mobimba.
