1 Wotu Yeriko ƒe agbowo goŋgoŋgoŋ le vɔvɔ̃ na Israelviwo ta, eye womeɖe mɔ na ame aɖeke be wòado go alo age ɖe eme o.
Zvino guta reJeriko rakanga rapfigwa zvakasimba kwazvo nokuda kwavaIsraeri. Hapana akabuda kunze uye hapana akapinda mukati.
2 Yehowa gblɔ na Yosua be, “Mieɖu Yerikotɔwo kple woƒe fia kple woƒe aʋawɔla sesẽwo katã dzi xoxo, elabena metsɔ wo de asi na mi!
Zvino Jehovha akati kuna Joshua, “Tarira, ndaisa Jeriko mumaoko ako, pamwe chete namambo waro navarume varo vehondo.
3 Nu si miawɔe nye, wò kple wò aʋawɔlawo katã miazɔ aƒo xlã Yeriko du la zi ɖeka gbe sia gbe hena ŋkeke ade.
Fambai mutenderere guta kamwe chete pamwe navarume vose vehondo. Muite izvi kwamazuva matanhatu.
4 Na nunɔla adre ɖe sia ɖe natsɔ lãdzokpẽwo ɖe asi, eye woadze ŋgɔ na nubablaɖaka la. Le ŋkeke adrelia gbe la, wò kple wò aʋawɔlawo katã miazɔ aƒo xlã du la zi adre le esime nunɔlaawo anɔ kpẽawo kum.
Ngapave navaprista vanomwe vanotakura hwamanda dzenyanga dzamakondobwe pamberi peareka. Pazuva rechinomwe fambai muchitenderera guta kanomwe, vaprista vachiridza hwamanda.
5 Ne nunɔlaawo ku kpẽawo zi ɖeka sesĩe ɣeyiɣi didi aɖe la, ameawo katã nado ɣli sesĩe. Dua ƒe gliwo amu adze anyi ekema miato teƒe sia teƒe age ɖe dua me.”
Kana mukazovanzwa varidza hwamanda kwenguva refu, vanhu vose vanofanira kudanidzira zvikuru; ipapo rusvingo rweguta ruchakoromoka, vanhu vagopinda, mumwe nomumwe pakanangana naye.”
6 Yosua, Nun ƒe vi, yɔ nunɔlaawo hegblɔ na wo be, “Mikɔ nubablaɖaka la; mia dometɔ adre nakɔ woƒe kpẽwo, eye miadze Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la ŋgɔ.”
Saka Joshua mwanakomana waNuni akadana vaprista akati kwavari, “Takurai areka yesungano yaJehovha uye vaprista vanomwe ngavatakure hwamanda pamberi pavo.”
7 Ale wòɖe gbe na ameawo be, “Mizɔ yi ŋgɔ! Mizɔ ƒo xlã du la. Ame siwo lé aʋawɔnuwo ɖe asi la nedze ŋgɔ na Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la.”
Akarayira vanhu akati, “Endai mberi! Fambai muchipoterera guta, varume vakatakura zvombo zvokurwa nazvo vaende mberi kweareka yaJehovha.”
8 Esi Yosua ƒo nu na ameawo vɔ la, nunɔla adre siwo lé kpẽ adre ɖe asi le Yehowa ŋkume la zɔ ɖe ŋgɔgbe henɔ woƒe kpẽawo kum, eye Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la kplɔ wo ɖo.
Joshua paakapedza kutaura navanhu, vaprista vanomwe vakatakura hwamanda nomwe pamberi paJehovha vakaenda pamberi, vachiridza hwamanda dzavo, areka yesungano yaJehovha ikavatevera.
9 Ame siwo lé aʋawɔnuwo ɖe asi la dze ŋgɔ na nunɔla siwo nɔ kpeawo kum, eye ame mamlɛawo dze nubablaɖaka la yome. Kpẽawo nɔ ɖiɖim esi wonɔ nu siawo katã wɔm.
Vakanga vakatakura zvombo zvokurwa nazvo vakafamba mberi kwavaprista vairidza hwamanda, navarindi veshure vakatevera areka. Nguva yose iyi hwamanda dzairira.
10 Yosua ɖe gbe na ameawo be, “Migado aʋaɣli o, migakɔ miaƒe gbewo dzi o, eye migagblɔ nya aɖeke o va se ɖe gbe si gbe magblɔ na mi be mido ɣli, ekema miado ɣli!”
Asi Joshua akanga arayira vanhu achiti, “Musadanidzira, musasimudzira manzwi enyu, musamboti bufu kusvikira zuva randinokuudzai kuti mudanidzire, ipapo ndipo pamunozodanidzira!”
11 Ale wòna wokɔ Yehowa ƒe aɖaka la ƒo xlã du la zi ɖeka. Tete ameawo gbugbɔ yi asaɖa la me, eye wotsi afi ma dɔ.
Naizvozvo akarayira kuti areka yaJehovha itakurwe ipoterere guta, iripoterere kamwe chete. Ipapo vanhu vakadzokera kumisasa vakararako.
12 Yosua fɔ ŋdi kanya, nunɔlaawo kɔ nubablaɖaka la,
Joshua akamuka rungwanangwana zuva raitevera vaprista ndokutakura areka yaJehovha.
13 eye nunɔla adre siwo si kpẽawo le la, dze ŋgɔ na Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la, eye wonɔ kpẽawo kum. Aʋawɔla aɖewo dze ŋgɔ na nunɔlaawo, eye mamlɛawo kplɔ nubablaɖaka la ɖo, le esime kpẽawo ganɔ ɖiɖim ko.
Vaprista vanomwe vakatakura hwamanda nomwe vakaenda pamberi, vakafamba pamberi peareka yaJehovha vachiridza hwamanda. Varume vakanga vakatakura zvombo zvokurwa nazvo vakavatungamirira uye varindi veshure vakatevera areka yaJehovha, hwamanda dzichingoridzwa.
14 Ale wozɔ ƒo xlã du la zi ɖeka le ŋkeke evelia gbe, eye wogatrɔ yi asaɖa la me. Wowɔ alea ŋkeke ade.
Naizvozvo pazuva rechipiri vakafamba vachipoteredza guta kamwe chete vakadzokera kumisasa. Vakaita izvi kwamazuva matanhatu.
15 Le ŋkeke adrelia ƒe fɔŋli la, wogadze mɔ, ke azɔ ya la, womegaƒo xlã du la zi ɖeka ko o, ke boŋ woƒo xlãe zi adre.
Pazuva rechinomwe, vakamuka mambakwedza vakafamba vachipoteredza guta kanomwe nenzira imwe chete, asi musi uyu vakapoterera guta kanomwe.
16 Esi woƒo xlã du la zi adrelia la, nunɔlaawo ku kpẽawo sesĩe ɣeyiɣi didi aɖe. Yosua ɖe gbe na ameawo be, “Ɣli neɖi! Yehowa tsɔ du sia na mí!”
Panguva yechinomwe, vaprista pavakaridza hwamanda, Joshua akarayira vanhu achiti, “Danidzirai! Nokuti Jehovha akupai guta!
17 Yosua gblɔ na ameawo do ŋgɔ be, “Miwu ame sia ame negbe Rahab, gbolo la kple ame sia ame si anɔ eƒe aƒe me la ko, elabena exɔ na míaƒe ŋkutsalawo.
Guta nezvose zviri mariri rinofanira kupiwa kuna Jehovha. Asi Rahabhi chifeve bedzi navose vaainavo mumba make ndivo vachasiyiwa, nokuti akavanza vasori vatakatuma.
18 Migaha naneke o, elabena ele be miatsrɔ̃ nu sia nu gbidigbidi. Ne miewɔ alea o la, dzɔgbevɔ̃e ava Israel dukɔ blibo la dzi.
Asi imi musaswedera pazvinhu zvakatukwa, kuti murege kuzviunzira kuparara, nokutora kana chimwe chazvo. Dzimwe nguva mungaunza kuparara pamusasa weIsraeri mukaipinza padambudziko.
19 Ke woƒe klosalo kple sika katã kple nu siwo wowɔ kple akɔbli kple gayibɔ la, woakɔ wo ŋu na Yehowa, eya ta mitsɔ wo va de Yehowa ƒe nudzraɖoƒe la me.”
Sirivha yose negoridhe nemidziyo yendarira neyesimbi zvakatsaurirwa Jehovha uye zvinofanira kuiswa munochengeterwa pfuma yake.”
20 Esi ameawo se kpẽawo ƒe ɖiɖi sesĩe la, wodo ɣli sesĩe abe ale si woate ŋui ene. Tete Yeriko ƒe gliwo mu dze anyi, eye wokaka le wo ŋkume. Israelviwo ge ɖe du la me bibibi to afi sia afi, eye woxɔ du la.
Hwamanda padzakarira, vanhu vakadanidzira, uye pakurira kwehwamanda, vanhu pavakadanidzira zvikuru, rusvingo rwakakoromoka; naizvozvo murume mumwe nomumwe akamhanya achipinda napakanga pakanangana naye, vachibva vatora guta.
21 Wotsrɔ̃ nu sia nu le dua me, ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo, ɖeviwo kple ame tsitsiwo, nyiwo, alẽwo kple tedziwo. Wotsrɔ̃ nu sia nu keŋkeŋkeŋ.
Vakapa guta kuna Jehovha kuti riparadzwe nomunondo, chipi nechipi chairarama mariri, varume navakadzi, vaduku navakuru, mombe, makwai nembongoro.
22 Yosua gblɔ na ŋkutsala eveawo be, “Miwɔ miaƒe ŋugbedodo dzi. Miyi miaxɔ Rahab, gbolo la kple ame siwo katã le eƒe aƒe me la ɖe agbe.”
Joshua akati kuvarume vaviri vakanga vasora nyika, “Pindai mumba mechifeve mumubudise iye navose vokwake, sezvamakapika kwaari.”
23 Ŋkutsalawo yi ɖatu Rahab, eye woxɔe ɖe agbe kpe ɖe fofoa, dadaa, nɔviawo kple ame siwo katã nɔ egbɔ la ŋu. Wona ame siawo nɔ Israelviwo ƒe asaɖa la godo.
Naizvozvo majaya akanga asora akapindamo akabudisa Rahabhi, baba vake namai vake nehanzvadzi dzake navose vokwake. Vakabudisa mhuri yose vakavaisa kunze kwomusasa weIsraeri.
24 Wotɔ dzo du la kple nu siwo katã le eme la negbe klosalo kple sika kple nu siwo wowɔ kple akɔbli kple gayibɔ ko wolɔ yi ɖada ɖe Yehowa ƒe nudzraɖoƒe.
Ipapo vakabva vapisa guta rose nazvose zvaiva mariri, asi vakaisa sirivha negoridhe nemidziyo yendarira neyesimbi munochengeterwa pfuma yemba yaJehovha.
25 Ale Yosua na Rahab, gbolo la kple eƒe ƒometɔ siwo nɔ egbɔ le eƒe aƒe me la tsi agbe, eye wotsi Israelviwo dome va se ɖe egbe, elabena Rahab ɣla ŋkutsala eve siwo Yosua ɖo ɖe Yeriko.
Asi Joshua akasiya Rahabhi chifeve, nemhuri yake navose vokwake, nokuti akanga avanza varume vakatumwa naJoshua savasori kuJeriko, uye agere pakati pavaIsraeri nanhasi uno.
26 Ɣe ma ɣi la, Yosua ka atam vevi sia be, “Ame si agbugbɔ Yeriko du sia atso la, fiƒode sia ava edzi le Yehowa ŋkume. Atsɔ Via ŋutsu ŋgɔgbetɔ aɖo eƒe gɔmeɖokpewoe, eye wòatsɔ via ɖevitɔ ƒe agbe atsɔ ade agbowo du la nu.”
Panguva iyoyo Joshua akareva mhiko iyi achiti, “Ngaatukwe pamberi paJehovha munhu achazoedza kuvakazve guta iri Jeriko: “Acharasikirwa nomwanakomana wake wedangwe paachaisa nheyo dzaro; acharasikirwa negotwe rake paachamisa masuo aro.”
27 Ale Yehowa nɔ kple Yosua, eye eƒe ŋkɔxɔxɔ kaka ɖe anyigba blibo la dzi.
Naizvozvo Jehovha akava naJoshua, mbiri yake ikapararira nenyika yose.
