< Joshua 8 >
1 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ, “Ndũgetigĩre na ndũgakue ngoro. Thiĩ na mbũtũ yothe ya ita, mwambate mũgatharĩkĩre itũũra rĩa Ai. Nĩgũkorwo nĩneanĩte mũthamaki wa Ai moko-inĩ manyu, hamwe na andũ ake, na itũũra rĩake rĩu inene na bũrũri wake.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, “ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē, pea ʻoua naʻa ke ilifia: ʻave ʻae kautau kotoa pē, pea tuʻu hake, ʻo ʻalu hake ki ʻAi: vakai, kuo u tuku ki ho nima ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻAi, mo hono kakai, mo ʻene kolo, mo hono fonua:
2 Ĩkai itũũra rĩa Ai na mũthamaki warĩo o ta ũrĩa mwekire itũũra rĩa Jeriko na mũthamaki warĩo, o tiga atĩrĩ, no muoye indo iria mũgũtaha, o na mahiũ matuĩke manyu. Oheriai andũ a itũũra rĩu inene na mwena wa na thuutha.”
Pea ke fai ki ʻAi mo hono tuʻi ʻo hangē ko ia naʻa ke fai ki Seliko mo hono tuʻi; ka ko e vete ʻo ia, mo e fanga manu ʻi ai te mou maʻu maʻamoutolu: ke toka ʻae malumu ki he potu tuʻa ʻoe kolo.”
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joshua na mbũtũ yothe ya ita makiumagara magatharĩkĩre Ai. Nake agĩthuura andũ 30,000 arĩa maarĩ njamba mũno akĩmatũma mathiĩ kũrĩ ũtukũ,
Pea naʻe tuʻu ai ʻa Siosiua, mo e kautau kotoa pē, kenau ʻalu hake ki ʻAi: pea naʻe fili ʻe Siosiua ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko tolu mano, ko e kau mālohi mo toʻa, ʻo ne fekau kenau ʻalu ʻi he poʻuli.
4 akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Ta thikĩrĩriai wega. Inyuĩ mũkuoheria andũ a itũũra rĩu inene na mwena warĩo wa na thuutha. Mũtigaikare haraaya narĩo. Inyuothe mũikare mwĩiguĩte.
Pea naʻa ne fekau kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, te mou toka malumu ʻo hanga ki he kolo, ʻio, ʻi he tuʻa kolo ki mui: ʻoua naʻa mou ʻalu mamaʻo fau mei he kolo, ka mou talitali teu pe kotoa pē:
5 Niĩ na arĩa othe tũrĩ nao tũgũthengerera itũũra rĩu inene kuuma na mbere na rĩrĩa andũ acio mariumagara gũtũhũũra o ta ũrĩa meekire hĩndĩ ya mbere-rĩ, tũmoorĩre.
Pea ko au, mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate au, te mau ʻunuʻunu ʻo ofi ki he kolo: pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻenau haʻu kituʻa kiate kimautolu, ʻo hangē ko e ʻuluaki fai, te mau hola mei honau ʻao,
6 Nao matũingatithie o nginya tũmaguucĩrĩrie biũ moime itũũra rĩu inene, nĩgũkorwo mariuga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩ ithuĩ maroorĩra ta ũrĩa meekire rĩa mbere.’ Nĩ ũndũ ũcio rĩrĩa tũrĩĩmoorĩra-rĩ,
(He tenau haʻu ko homau tuli, ) kaeʻoua ke mau tautoho mai ʻakinautolu mei he kolo: he tenau pehē, ʻOku nau hola ʻi hotau ʻao, ʻo hangē ko e fuofua fai ko ia te mau hola ai ʻi honau ʻao.
7 inyuĩ na inyuĩ mũkĩre muume kũrĩa mũmooheirie, mũtharĩkĩre itũũra rĩu inene na mũrĩtunyane. Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩekũrĩneana moko-inĩ manyu.
Pea mou toki tuʻu hake ʻae malumu, pea maʻu ʻae kolo: he ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua te ne tukuange ia ki homou nima.
8 Na rĩrĩ, mwarĩkia kwĩgwatĩra itũũra rĩu inene-rĩ, mũrĩcine. Ĩkai o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathanĩte gwĩkwo. Mũtigĩrĩre nĩ mweka ũguo ndamwatha.”
Pea ʻe pehē, ʻi hoʻomou lavaʻi ʻae kolo, te mou tutu leva ʻae kolo ʻaki ʻae afi; ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova ʻe pehē hoʻomou fai. Vakai, kuo u fekau kiate kimoutolu.”
9 Nake Joshua akĩmeera moimagare, nao magĩthiĩ harĩa maathiiaga kuoheria andũ a itũũra rĩu, na makĩĩhitha metereire gatagatĩ ka Betheli na Ai, mwena wa ithũĩro wa Ai, no Joshua araaranirie na andũ arĩa angĩ ũtukũ ũcio.
Ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe Siosiua kenau ʻalu atu: pea naʻa nau ʻalu ke toka ʻae malumu, pea naʻa nau nofo ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Peteli mo ʻAi, ʻi he potu lulunga ki ʻAi: ka naʻe mohe ʻa Siosiua ʻi he pō ko ia mo e kakai.
10 Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ rũciinĩ tene, Joshua agĩcookanĩrĩria andũ ake, nake we mwene hamwe na atongoria a Isiraeli makĩmatongoria marorete Ai.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻa Siosiua ʻi he pongipongi, ʻo ne lau ʻae kakai, pea ne ʻalu hake, ʻaia mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai ki ʻAi.
11 Mbũtũ yothe ya ita ĩrĩa yarĩ hamwe nake ĩgĩthiĩ yambatĩte, ĩgĩkuhĩrĩria itũũra rĩu inene mariumĩte na mbere. Nao makĩamba hema mwena wa gathigathini wa Ai, na hagĩkorwo nĩ haarĩ gĩtuamba gatagatĩ kao na itũũra rĩu inene.
Pea ko e kakai kotoa pē, ʻae kautau naʻe ʻiate ia, naʻe ʻalu hake, pea ʻunuʻunu, ʻo hoko ki he ʻao ʻoe kolo, ʻonau nofo ʻi he potu tokelau ʻo ʻAi: ka naʻe ai ʻae fuʻu luo ʻi honau vahaʻa mo ʻAi.
12 Joshua nĩakoretwo oete andũ ta 5,000 na akamaiga moheirie andũ kũu gatagatĩ ka Betheli na Ai, mwena wa ithũĩro wa itũũra rĩu inene.
Pea naʻa ne fili ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko nima afe nai, ʻo ne tuku ʻakinautolu ke toka malumu, ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Peteli mo ʻAi, ʻi he potu lulunga ʻoe kolo.
13 Magĩgĩatha thigari ciikare ciĩhaarĩirie o andũ handũ hao, iria ciothe ciarĩ kambĩ igĩikara mwena wa gathigathini wa itũũra rĩu inene, na iria cioheirie andũ mwena wa ithũĩro warĩo. Naguo ũtukũ ũcio Joshua agĩthiĩ kũraara kũu gĩtuamba-inĩ.
Pea hili ʻenau fakanofo ʻae kakai, ʻio ʻae tau kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he potu fakatokelau ʻoe kolo, mo e malumu ʻoku fakamohe ʻi lulunga ʻoe kolo, naʻe ʻalu ʻa Siosiua ʻi he pō ko ia ki he loto luo.
14 Rĩrĩa mũthamaki wa Ai onire ũndũ ũcio, agĩũkĩra na ihenya rũciinĩ tene, akiumagara na ihenya hamwe na andũ othe a itũũra rĩu inene nĩguo agacemanie na Isiraeli marũe mbaara handũ hana haangʼethanĩire na Araba. No rĩrĩ, ndaigana kũmenya atĩ nĩmehithĩirwo na mwena wa thuutha wa itũũra rĩu inene.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻAi, naʻa nau fakatoʻotoʻo pea tuʻu hengihengi hake, pea ko e kau tangata ʻoe kolo ne ʻalu kituʻa ke tauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻaia mo hono kakai kotoa pē ʻi he feituʻu naʻe tuʻutuʻuni, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe toafa; pea naʻe ʻikai mahalo ʻe ia ʻoku ai ha malumu kuo tokoto ʻi he tuʻa kolo.
15 Nake Joshua na andũ a Isiraeli othe magĩĩtua ta mahũũrĩtwo magatoorio, nao makĩũra marorete na werũ-inĩ.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe Siosiua mo ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻo hangē kuo teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ʻao, pea naʻa nau hola ʻi he hala ʻoe toafa.
16 Nao andũ othe a itũũra rĩa Ai magĩĩtwo nĩguo mamarũmĩrĩre, nao magĩtengʼeria Joshua makĩguucĩrĩrio makiuma itũũra rĩao.
Pea naʻe ui ke fakataha ʻae kakai kotoa pē naʻe ʻi ʻAi kenau tuli kiate kinautolu: pea naʻa nau tuli ʻa Siosiua, pea kuo tohoakiʻi ai ʻakinautolu mei he kolo.
17 Gũtirĩ mũndũ mũrũme o na ũmwe wa Ai kana Betheli ũtoimire gũthiĩ gũkinyĩra andũ a Isiraeli. Magĩtiga itũũra rĩu rĩtaahingĩtwo magĩtengʼeria andũ a Isiraeli.
Pea naʻe ʻikai toe ha tangata ʻi ʻAi pe ʻi Peteli naʻe ʻikai ʻalu kituʻa ke tuli ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻa nau tuku liʻaki pē ʻae kolo ʻonau tuli ki ʻIsileli.
18 Nake Jehova akĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ, “Ambararia itimũ rĩu ũnyiitĩte na guoko, ũrĩrorie mwena wa Ai, nĩgũkorwo nĩngũneana itũũra rĩu inene moko-inĩ manyu.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joshua akĩambararia itimũ rĩake akĩrĩroria Ai.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, “Mafao atu ʻae tao ʻoku ʻi ho nima ʻo hanga ki ʻAi; he te u tuku ia ki ho nima.” Pea naʻe mafao atu ʻe Siosiua ʻae tao naʻe ʻi hono nima ʻo hanga atu ki he kolo.
19 Na rĩrĩ, Joshua aarĩkia gwĩka ũguo, arũme arĩa moohetie andũ magĩũkĩra narua, magĩtengʼera na ihenya, magĩtoonya itũũra rĩu na makĩrĩtunyana, ningĩ makĩrĩgwatia mwaki o narua.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake leva ʻae malumu mei honau potu, pea ʻi heʻene mafao atu hono nima, naʻa nau lele leva: pea naʻa nau hū ki he kolo, ʻo maʻu ia, pea naʻe fakatoʻotoʻo leva ʻo tutu ʻae kolo ʻaki ʻae afi.
20 Na rĩrĩa andũ acio a Ai maarorire na thuutha na makĩona ndogo yumĩte itũũra rĩu yambatĩte na igũrũ-rĩ, nao makĩaga mweke wa gwĩthara na mwena o na ũrĩkũ, nĩgũkorwo andũ a Isiraeli arĩa morĩte marorete werũ-inĩ nĩmagarũrũkĩire acio maamatengʼeragia.
Pea ʻi he sio kimui ʻae kau tangata ʻo ʻAi, pea nau mamata, pea vakai, ko e ʻohuafi ʻo ʻenau kolo ʻoku ʻalu hake ki langi, naʻe ʻikai hanau mafai ke hola ʻi he hala ni, pe ʻi he hala na: pea ko e kakai naʻe hola ange ki he toafa, naʻa nau tafoki mai ki honau kau tuli.
21 Rĩrĩa Joshua na Isiraeli othe moonire atĩ andũ ao arĩa mooheirie andũ thuutha wa itũũra nĩmarĩtunyanĩte, na makĩona ndogo ĩgĩtoga kuuma itũũra, makĩgarũrũka na makĩũraga andũ acio a Ai.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Siosiua mo ʻIsileli kotoa pē kuo maʻu ʻae kolo ʻe he malumu, pea kuo ʻalu hake ʻae ʻohuafi ʻoe kolo, naʻa nau tafoki leva, ʻo teʻia ʻae kau tangata ʻo ʻAi.
22 Nao andũ arĩa maamohetie makiuma itũũra rĩu inene matharĩkĩre. Andũ a Ai magĩgĩĩkĩrwo gatagatĩ ka andũ a Isiraeli, makĩmagĩa mbere na thuutha. Andũ a Isiraeli makĩmaniina, na matiatigirie mũndũ o na ũmwe arĩ muoyo, kana makĩreka o na ũmwe ahonoke.
Pea naʻe ʻoho mai [ʻae kautau ]ʻe taha mei he kolo kiate kinautolu; ko ia naʻa nau moʻua ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo ʻIsileli mei mui pea ʻi honau ʻao: pea naʻa nau teʻia ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻe hao.
23 No nĩmanyiitire mũthamaki wa Ai arĩ muoyo, makĩmũtwarĩra Joshua.
Pea naʻa nau puke moʻui ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻAi, pea ʻomi ia kia Siosiua.
24 Rĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli maarĩkirie kũũraga andũ othe a Ai arĩa maarĩ gĩthaka-inĩ na kũu werũ-inĩ, kũrĩa maamatengʼereirie-rĩ, na rĩrĩa andũ acio othe maarĩkirie kũũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora-rĩ, andũ a Isiraeli othe magĩcooka Ai na makĩũraga andũ arĩa othe maarĩ kuo.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he fakaʻosi ʻe ʻIsileli hono teʻia ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo ʻAi ʻi he ngoue, pea mo e toafa ʻaia naʻa nau tuli ʻakinautolu ki ai, pea ʻi he ʻosi ʻenau hinga ki he mata ʻoe heletā, pea nau ʻauha, naʻe toki haʻu ʻae kakai ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki ʻAi, pea tā ʻaki ia ʻae mata ʻoe heletā,
25 Andũ arĩa mooragirwo mũthenya ũcio maarĩ andũ 12,000, arũme na andũ-a-nja; nao nĩo andũ othe a itũũra rĩa Ai.
Pea naʻe pehē, ko kinautolu naʻe tō ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻae tangata mo e fefine, ko e tokotaha mano, mo e toko ua afe, ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻAi.
26 Nĩgũkorwo Joshua ndaigana gũthuna guoko kũrĩa kwambararĩtie itimũ rĩake nginya rĩrĩa aarĩkirie kũniina andũ arĩa othe maatũũraga Ai.
He naʻe ʻikai toe toʻo mai ʻe Siosiua hono nima, ʻaia naʻa ne mafao ai ʻae tao, kaeʻoua ke ʻosiʻosingamālie hono fakaʻauha ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo ʻAi.
27 Nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩkuuĩra ũhiũ na indo iria maatahĩte kuuma itũũra rĩu inene, o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathĩte Joshua.
Ka ko e fanga manu mo e vete ʻoe kolo ko ia, naʻe toʻo ia ʻe ʻIsileli ko e koloa kiate kinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻa ne fekau kia Siosiua.
28 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joshua agĩcina Ai na akĩrĩtua hĩba ya mwanangĩko ya gũtũũra, gũgĩtuĩka kũndũ gũkirĩte ihooru nginya ũmũthĩ.
Pea naʻe tutu ʻe Siosiua ʻa ʻAi, ʻo ne ngaohi ko e ʻesi ʻo taʻengata, ʻio, ko e potu liʻaki ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
29 Joshua agĩcooka agĩcuuria mũthamaki ũcio wa Ai mũtĩ igũrũ, akĩreka aikare ho o nginya hwaĩ-inĩ. Riũa rĩgĩthũa-rĩ, Joshua agĩathana atĩ mwĩrĩ ũcio ũrutwo mũtĩ igũrũ, ũikio hau itoonyero-inĩ rĩa kĩhingo gĩa itũũra rĩu, magĩcooka makĩũigĩrĩra hĩba nene ya mahiga, nayo ĩrĩ o ho nginya ũmũthĩ.
Pea naʻe tautau ʻe ia ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻAi ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi: pea ʻi he ʻalu hifo ʻae laʻā, naʻe fekau ʻe Siosiua kenau tuku hifo hono ʻangaʻanga mei he ʻakau, ʻo lī ia ki he tefitoʻi matapā ʻoe kolo, pea naʻe fokotuʻu ki ai ʻae fuʻu ʻesi maka, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
30 Thuutha wa ũguo Joshua agĩakĩra Jehova, o we Ngai wa Isiraeli, kĩgongona o kũu kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Ebali,
Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Siosiua ʻae feilaulauʻanga kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he moʻunga ko Ipale,
31 o ta ũrĩa Musa ndungata ya Jehova aathĩte andũ a Isiraeli. Aagĩakire o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo thĩinĩ wa Ibuku rĩa Watho wa Musa, kĩgongona kĩrĩ kĩa mahiga matarĩ maicũhie, hatarĩ indo cia wĩra cia kĩgera ikũhũthĩrwo ho. Igũrũ rĩakĩo makĩrutĩra Jehova maruta ma njino na magongona ma ũiguano.
ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ʻoe fono ʻa Mōsese, “ko e feilaulauʻanga, ʻoe ngaahi maka kātoa, ʻaia kuo ʻikai hiki ʻe ha tangata ha ukamea ki ai:” pea naʻa nau ʻatu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu kia Sihova, mo e ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei.
32 Nake Joshua akĩandĩka watho wa Musa igũrũ rĩa mahiga macio, aandĩkire andũ a Isiraeli marĩ ho makĩĩonagĩra.
Pea naʻe tohi ʻe ia ʻi ai ki he ngaahi maka hono hiki ʻoe fono ʻa Mōsese, ʻaia naʻa ne tohi ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
33 Na rĩrĩ, andũ a Isiraeli othe, na andũ a kũngĩ na ene bũrũri o ũndũ ũmwe, hamwe na athuuri ao, na anene na atuithania ciira, makĩrũgama mĩena yeerĩ ya ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova mangʼetheire athĩnjĩri-Ngai, arĩa maarĩ Alawii na nĩo maarĩkuuaga. Nuthu ya andũ yarũgamĩte mbere ya kĩrĩma kĩa Gerizimu, na nuthu ĩyo ĩngĩ ĩkarũgama mbere ya kĩrĩma kĩa Ebali, o ta ũrĩa Musa ndungata ya Jehova aathanĩte mbere ĩyo rĩrĩa aarutanire ũhoro wa kũrathimaga andũ a Isiraeli.
Pea ko ʻIsileli kotoa pē, mo ʻenau kau mātuʻa, mo e kau matāpule, mo e kau fakamaau, naʻa nau tutuʻu fakataha mo e muli, mo ia naʻe tupu ʻiate kinautolu ʻi he potu toʻomataʻu ʻoe puha, mo e potu toʻohema, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki ko e kau Livai, ʻaia naʻe haʻamo ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻo Sihova; ko honau vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha naʻe hanga ki he moʻunga ko Kelisimi, mo honau vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha naʻe hanga ki he moʻunga ko Ipale; ʻo hangē ko e tomuʻa fekau ʻa Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu, koeʻuhi ke nau tāpuakiʻi ʻae kakai ʻo ʻIsileli.
34 Thuutha ũcio, Joshua agĩthoma ciugo ciothe cia Watho, agĩthoma irathimo o na agĩthoma irumi, o ta ũrĩa kwaandĩkĩtwo Ibuku-inĩ rĩa Watho.
Pea hili ia naʻa ne lau ke ʻosi ʻae ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻoe fono, ko e ngaahi tāpuaki, mo e ngaahi fakamalaʻia, ʻo fakatatau mo ia kotoa pē kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ʻoe fono.
35 Gũtirĩ kiugo o na kĩmwe kĩa iria ciothe Musa aathanĩte Joshua ataathomeire kĩũngano kĩu gĩothe kĩa Isiraeli, o hamwe na andũ-a-nja na ciana na andũ o kũngĩ arĩa maatũũranagia nao.
Pea naʻe ʻikai ha foʻi lea ʻe liaki ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai lau ʻe Siosiua ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai fakataha kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, mo e kau fefine mo e ngaahi fānau siʻi, pea mo e kau muli naʻe nofo fiemālie mo kinautolu.
