< Jozye 10 >
1 Alò, li te vin rive ke lè Adoni-Tsédek, wa Jérusalem nan te tande ke Josué te kapte Aï e te detwi li nèt (jis jan ke li te fè Jéricho avèk wa li a, konsa li te fè Aïavèk wa li a), e ke pèp Gabaon an te fè lapè avèk Israël e yo te rete nan mitan yo,
Now when Adoni-Zedek, king of Jerusalem, heard that Joshua had captured Ai and had completely destroyed it (just as he had done to Jericho and its king), he also heard how the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living among them.
2 ke li te vin pè anpil, akoz Gabaon te yon gran vil tankou youn nan vil wayal yo, epi akoz li te pi gran ke Aï e tout gason li yo te pwisan.
The people of Jerusalem were very afraid because Gibeon was a large city, like one of the royal cities. It was larger than Ai, and all its men were mighty warriors.
3 Pou sa, Adoni-Tsédek, wa Jérusalem nan te voye Hoham, wa Hébron an ak Piream, wa Jarmuth ak Japhia, wa Lakis avèk Debir, wa Eglon an, e te di:
So Adoni-Zedek, king of Jerusalem, sent a message to Hoham, king of Hebron, to Piram, king of Jarmuth, to Japhia, king of Lachish, and to Debir, king of Eglon:
4 “Vin monte kote mwen pou ede m. Annou atake Gabaon, paske yo te fè lapè avèk Josué e avèk fis Israël yo.”
“Come up to me and help me. Let us attack Gibeon because they have made peace with Joshua and with the people of Israel.”
5 Konsa, senk wa Amoreyen yo, wa Jérusalem nan, wa Hébron an, wa Jarmuth lan, wa Lakis la ak wa Eglon an te monte, yo menm avèk tout lame yo, yo te fè kan akote Gabaon pou te goumen kont li.
The five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon came up, they and all their armies. They set up their positions against Gibeon, and they attacked it.
6 Mesye Gabaon yo te voye kote Josué kote kan Guilgal la, e te di: “Pa abandone sèvitè ou yo; vin monte kote nou pou ede nou; paske tout wa Amoreyen ki rete nan peyi kolin yo te vin rasanble kont nou.”
The people of Gibeon sent a message to Joshua and to the army at Gilgal. They said, “Hurry! Do not withdraw your hands from your servants. Come up to us quickly and save us. Help us, for all the kings of the Amorites who live in the hill country have gathered together to attack us.”
7 Alò, Josué te monte soti Guilgal, li menm ansanm ak tout moun lagè yo ak tout gèrye vanyan yo.
Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the men of war with him, and all the fighting men.
8 SENYÈ a te di a Josué: “Pa pè yo, paske Mwen te mete yo nan men ou. Pa menm youn nan yo va kanpe devan ou.”
Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them. I have given them into your hand. Not one of them will be able to stop your attack.”
9 Konsa, Josué te parèt sou yo sibitman akoz yo te mache nan nwit lan soti Guilgal.
Joshua came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal.
10 Epi SENYÈ a te fè yo fè dega devan Israël. Li te touye yo avèk yon gwo masak nan Gabaon, Li te kouri dèyè yo nan chemen pant Beth-Horon e Li te frape yo jis rive Azéka, avèk Makkéda.
Yahweh confused the enemy before Israel, and Israel killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon and pursued them on the road going up to Beth Horon, and they killed them on the road to Azekah and Makkedah.
11 Pandan yo t ap sove ale devan Israël, pandan yo t ap desann pant Beth-Horon an, SENYÈ a te voye gwo wòch sòti nan syèl la sou yo jis rive Azéka, e yo te mouri. Pifò nan yo te mouri akoz gwo lagrèl ke sila ke fis Israël yo te touye avèk lam nepe yo.
As they ran away from Israel, down the hill from Beth Horon, Yahweh threw large stones down from heaven upon them all the way to Azekah, and they died. There were more who died because of the hailstones than who were killed with the sword by the men of Israel.
12 Konsa, Josué te pale avèk SENYÈ a nan jou ke SENYÈ a te livre Amoreyen yo devan fis Israël yo. Li te pale devan tout zye a fis Israël yo: “O solèy, kanpe an plas sou Gabaon! Epi lalin nan, rete la, nan vale Ajalon!”
Then Joshua spoke to Yahweh on the day Yahweh gave the men of Israel victory over the Amorites. This is what Joshua said to Yahweh before Israel, “Sun, be still at Gibeon, and moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.”
13 Alò, solèy la te kanpe e lalin nan pa t deplase Jiskaske nasyon an te fè revandikasyon an yo menm, sou lènmi yo. Èske sa pa ekri nan liv Jaser a? Solèy la te rete nan mitan syèl la e li pa t deplase pandan anviwon yon jou konplè.
The sun stood still, and the moon stopped moving until the nation took vengeance on their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the middle of the sky; it did not go down for about a whole day.
14 Pa t gen jou tankou sila a ni devan li, ni apre li, lè SENYÈ a te koute vwa a yon moun; paske SENYÈ a te goumen pou Israël.
There has been no other day like it before or after it, when Yahweh obeyed the voice of a human being. For Yahweh was waging war on behalf of Israel.
15 Konsa, Josué avèk tout Israël avèk li te retounen nan kan an Guilgal.
Joshua and all Israel with him returned to the camp at Gilgal.
16 Men senk wa sila yo te sove ale pou te kache kò yo nan gwòt Makkéda a.
Now the five kings had escaped and hidden themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
17 Li te pale a Jousé ke: “Senk wa yo te twouve kache nan gwòt Makkéda a.”
It was told to Joshua, “They have been found!—the five kings hidden in the cave at Makkedah!”
18 Josué te di: “Woule gwo wòch yo kont bouch gwòt la; epi mete mesye yo veye l,
Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave and place soldiers there to guard them.
19 men pa rete nou menm. Swiv lènmi nou yo pou atake yo pa dèyè. Pa kite yo antre nan vil yo, paske SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, te livre yo nan men nou.”
Do not stay yourselves. Pursue your enemies and attack them from the rear. Do not permit them to enter into their cities, because Yahweh your God has given them into your hand.”
20 Li te vin rive ke lè Josué avèk fis Israël yo te fin touye yo avèk yon gwo masak, jiskaske yo tout te fin detwi e sila ki te chape yo, yo te antre nan vil fòtifye yo,
Joshua and the sons of Israel had finished slaughtering them with a very great slaughter, until they were almost completely destroyed; only a few survivors who escaped reached the fortified cities.
21 pou tout pèp la te retounen nan kan an kote Josué nan Makkéda anpè. Pèsòn pa t pale yon mo kont fis Israël yo.
Then the whole army returned in peace to Joshua at the camp at Makkedah. No one dared to say one word against any of the people of Israel.
22 Epi Jousé te di: “Ouvri bouch gwòt la e mennen senk wa sa yo sòti nan gwòt la.”
Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and out of the cave bring to me these five kings.”
23 Se konsa yo te fè, yo te mennen senk wa sila yo soti deyò gwòt la: wa Jérusalem nan, wa Hébron an, wa Jarmuth lan, wa Lakis la ak wa Eglon an.
They did as he said. They brought to him these five kings from the cave—the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
24 Lè yo te mennen wa sa yo sòti kote Josué, Josué te rele tout mesye Israël yo. Li te di a chèf gèrye yo ki te ale avèk l, “Vin mete pye nou sou kou a wa sa yo.” Epi yo te vini epou te mete pye yo sou kou yo.
When they brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned every man of Israel. He said to the commanders of the soldiers who had gone into battle with him, “Put your feet on their necks.” So they came up and put their feet on their necks.
25 Epi Josué te di yo: “Pa pè, ni dekouraje! Kenbe fèm e pran kouraj, paske konsa SENYÈ a va fè a tout lènmi nou yo lè yo goumen avèk nou.”
Then he said to them, “Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed. Be strong and courageous. This is what Yahweh will do to all your enemies you are going to fight.”
26 Epi answit, Josué te frape yo e te mete yo a lanmò, epi te pann yo sou senk pyebwa. Yo te pann sou bwa yo jis rive nan aswè.
Then Joshua attacked and killed the kings. He hung them on five trees. They hung on the trees until evening.
27 Li te rive nan lè solèy kouche ke Josué te bay yon kòmand pou yo te desann yo nan pyebwa yo, e jete yo nan gwòt kote yo te kache kò yo a. Yo te mete gwo wòch sou bouch gwòt la, ki la jis jodi a.
When it was sunset, Joshua gave orders, and they took them down from the trees and threw them into the cave where they had hidden themselves. They put large stones over the mouth of the cave. Those stones remain there to this very day.
28 Alò, Josué te kaptire Makkéda nan jou sa a. Li te frape l, ansanm ak wa li a avèk lam nepe. Li te konplètman detwi li ak tout moun ki te ladann. Li pa t kite pèsòn vivan. Konsa li te fè a wa Makkéda a, jis jan ke li te fè a wa Jéricho a.
In this way, Joshua captured Makkedah on that day and killed everyone there with the sword, including its king. He completely destroyed everyone in it. He left no survivor in it. He did to the king of Makkedah just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
29 Epi Josué avèk tout Israël avèk li te pase soti Makkéda a Libna pou te goumen kont Libna.
Joshua and all Israel passed on from Makkedah to Libnah. He went into battle against Libnah.
30 SENYÈ a te bay Libna tou ansanm ak wa li nan men Israël. Li te frape li ak tout moun ki te ladann avèk lam nepe. Li pa t kite pèsòn vivan ladann. Konsa li te fè a wa a li menm bagay ke li te fè a wa Jéricho a.
Yahweh also gave it into the hand of Israel—along with their king. Joshua struck it with the edge of the sword and every person in it. He left no survivor in it. He did to its king just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
31 Konsa, Josué avèk tout Israël avèk li te pase soti nan Libna a Lakis. Yo te fè kan kontra li e te goumen kont li.
Then Joshua and all Israel with him passed on from Libnah to Lachish. He camped by it and waged war against it.
32 SENYÈ a te bay Lakis nan men Israël. Li te kaptire li nan dezyèm jou a. Li te frape li ak tout moun ki te ladann avèk lam nepe, jis jan ke li te fè a Libna a.
Yahweh gave Lachish into the hand of Israel. Joshua captured it on the second day and struck it with the edge of the sword, and every person in it, just as he had done to Libnah.
33 Alò Horam, wa Guézer a, te monte pou ede Lakis. Jousé te bat li ak pèp li a jiskaske li pa t kite moun vivan.
Then Horam, king of Gezer, came up to help Lachish. Joshua attacked him and his army until there was not even one survivor left.
34 Konsa, Josué avèk tout Israël te kite Lakis pou Églon; Yo te fè kan kontra li e te goumen kont li.
Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Lachish to Eglon. They camped by it and waged war against it,
35 Yo te kaptire li nan jou sila a e te frape li avèk lam nepe. Nan jou sa a, li te konplètman detwi tout moun ki te ladann, jis jan li te fè a Lakis la.
and captured it that same day. They struck it with the edge of the sword and they completely destroyed everyone in it, as Joshua had done to Lachish.
36 Alò, Josué avèk tout Israël avèk li te monte soti Églon a Hébron, epi yo te goumen kont li.
Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Eglon to Hebron. They waged war against it.
37 Yo te kaptire li, frape li ak wa li a avèk tout vil li yo ak tout moun ki te ladann avèk lam nepe. Li pa t kite pèsòn vivan, jis jan li te fè Eglon an. Li te konplètman detwi li avèk tout moun ki te ladann.
They captured it and struck it with the edge of the sword, and its king and its villages, and everyone in it. They left no survivor it, as they had done to Eglon, they totally destroyed it and every person in it.
38 Epi Josué avèk tout Israël avèk li te retounen a Debir pou yo te goumen kont li.
Then Joshua turned, and all the army of Israel with him, and they passed on to Debir and waged war against it.
39 Li te kaptire li avèk wa li a, ak tout vil li yo. Yo te frape yo avèk lam nepe e te detwi yo nèt tout moun ladann. Li pa t kite moun vivan. Jis jan ke li te fè Hébron an, konsa li te fè Debir avèk wa li a e li te osi fè nan Libna avèk wa li a.
They captured it, its king and all its nearby villages. They struck them with the edge of the sword and completely destroyed every person in it. They left no survivor. They did to Debir and its king as they had done to Libnah and its king and to Hebron.
40 Konsa, Josué te frape tout peyi a, peyi kolin yo avèk Negev la ak bas plèn nan avèk pant yo ak tout wa yo. Li pa t kite moun vivan, men li te konplètman detwi tout moun ki te gen souf lavi, jis jan ke SENYÈ a, Bondye a Israël la, te kòmande a.
Joshua conquered all the land, the hill country, the Negev, the lowlands, and the foothills. Of all their kings he left not one survivor. He completely destroyed every living thing, just as Yahweh, the God of Israel, had commanded.
41 Josué te frape yo soti Kadès-Barnéa, jis rive Gaza.
Joshua struck them from Kadesh Barnea to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen to Gibeon.
42 Jousé te kaptire tout wa sila yo avèk peyi yo nan yon sèl kou, akoz SENYÈ a, Bondye a Israël la, te goumen pou Israël.
Joshua captured all these kings and their land at one time because Yahweh, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
43 Epi Josué ak tout Israël avèk li te retounen nan kan Guilgal la.
Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, returned to the camp at Gilgal.
