< Jozye 11 >
1 Epi li te vin rive ke lè Jabin, wa Hatsor a, te tande koze a, li te voye kote Jobab, wa Madon an, kote wa Schimron ak kote wa Acschaph,
And when Jabis the king of Asor heard, he sent to Jobab king of Maron, and to the king of Symoon, and to the king of Aziph,
2 ak wa ki te nan nò nan peyi kolin yo ak nan Araba a—-plis nan sid a Kinnéreth, nan ba plèn nan ak sou wotè a Dor nan lwès,
and to the kings who were by the great Sidon, to the hill country and to Araba opposite Keneroth, and to the plain, and to Phenaeddor,
3 vè Kananeyen yo nan lès ak nan lwès, Amoreyen yo, Etyen yo, Ferezyen yo ak Jebizyen yo nan peyi kolin yo ak Evyen yo nan pye Mòn Hermon nan peyi Mitspa a.
and to the Chananites on the coast eastward, and to the Amorites on the coast, and the Chettites, and the Pherezites, and the Jebusites in the mountain, and the Evites, and those dwelling under [mount] Aermon in the land Massyma.
4 Yo te sòti, yo menm avèk tout lame yo avèk yo, fòs kantite moun tankou grenn sab bò lanmè, avèk anpil cheval ak cha.
And they and their kings with them went forth, as the sand of the sea in multitude, and horses, and very many chariots.
5 Tout wa sila yo te reyini. Yo te vin fè kan an ansanm vè dlo a Mérom yo pou goumen kont Israël.
And all the kings assembled in person, and came to the same place, and encamped at the waters of Maron to war with Israel.
6 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Jousé: “Pa pè akoz yo menm, paske demen nan lè sa a, mwen va livre yo tou mouri devan Israël. Nou va koupe jarèt cheval yo e brile cha yo avèk dife.”
And the Lord said to Joshua, Be not afraid of them, for to-morrow [at] this time I will put them to flight before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire
7 Konsa, Jousé avèk tout moun lagè yo te parèt sou yo sibitman toupre dlo Mérom yo pou atake yo.
And Joshua and all the men of war came upon them at the water of Maron suddenly; and they attacked them in the hill country.
8 SENYÈ a te livre yo nan men Israël pou yo te genyen yo. Yo te kouri dèyè yo jis rive nan Gran Sidon, ak Misrepoth-Maïm avèk vale a Mitspa nan lès. Yo te frape yo jiskaske pèsòn pa t viv ladan yo.
And the Lord delivered them into the power of Israel; and they smote them and pursued them to great Sidon, and to Maseron, and to the plains of Massoch eastward; and they destroyed them till there was not one of them left that survived.
9 Josué te fè yo jan SENYÈ a te pale li a. Li te koupe jarèt cheval yo, e brile cha yo avèk dife.
And Joshua did to them, as the Lord commanded him: he houghed their horses, and burned their chariots with fire.
10 Epi Josué te retounen fè bak nan moman sa a pou te kaptire Hatsor e frape wa li a avèk nepe. Paske Hatsor, oparavan, te chèf an tèt tout wayòm sila yo.
And Joshua returned at that time, and took Asor and her king; now Asor in former time was the chief of these kingdoms.
11 Yo te frape tout moun ki te ladann avèk lam nepe. Yo te detwi yo nèt. Pa t gen pèsòn ki te rete ap respire. Epi li te brile Hatsor avèk dife.
And they slew with the sword all that breathed in it, and utterly destroyed them all, and there was no living thing left in it; and they burnt Asor with fire.
12 Josué te kaptire tout vil a wa sila yo, ak tout wa yo. Li te frape yo avèk lam nepe e li te detwi yo nèt, jis jan ke Moïse, sèvitè SENYÈ a te kòmande a.
And Joshua took all the cities of the kingdoms, and their kings, and slew them with the edge of the sword; and utterly slew them, as Moses the servant of the Lord commanded.
13 Sepandan, Israël pa t brile okenn nan vil ki te kanpe sou pwòp ti mòn pa yo, sof ke Hatsor sèl, ke Josué te brile.
But all the walled cities Israel burnt not; but Israel burnt Asor only.
14 Tout piyaj lakay sila yo ak bèt yo, fis Israël yo te pran yo kòm byen sezi pa yo. Men yo te frape tout moun avèk lam nepe jiskaske yo te detwi yo. Yo pa t kite pèsòn respire.
And the children of Israel took all its spoils to themselves; and they slew all the men with the edge of the sword, until he destroyed them; they left not one of them breathing.
15 Jis jan SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse, sèvitè li a, konsa Moïse te kòmande Josué, e konsa Josué te fè. Li pa t kite anyen pa fèt nan tout sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la.
As the Lord commanded his servant Moses, even so Moses commanded Joshua; and so Joshua did, he transgressed no precept of all that Moses commanded him.
16 Konsa, Josué te pran tout teritwa sa a: peyi ti kolin yo ak tout Negev la, tout peyi Gosen nan, ba plèn nan, Araba a, peyi ti kolin Israël la ak ba plèn li,
And Joshua took all the hill country, and all the land of Nageb, and all the land of Gosom, and the plain country, and that toward the west, and the mountain of Israel and the low country by the mountain;
17 soti nan Mòn Halak ki leve vè Séir, menm jis rive lwen nan Baal-Gad nan vale Liban nan pye Mòn Hermon. Konsa, li te kaptire tout wa yo, li te frape yo ba e te mete yo a lanmò.
from the mountain of Chelcha, and that which goes up to Seir, and as far as Balagad, and the plains of Libanus, under mount Aermon; and he took all their kings, and destroyed, and slew them.
18 Josué te pouswiv lagè pandan anpil tan avèk tout wa sa yo.
And for many days Joshua waged war with these kings.
19 Pa t gen yon vil ki te fè lapè avèk fis Israël yo, sof ke Evyen ki te rete Gabaon yo. Se nan batay menm yo te pran yo.
And there was no city which Israel took not; they took all in war.
20 Paske se te volonte SENYÈ a pou yo ta fè kè yo vin di, pou yo te rankontre Israël nan batay, pou Li ta kapab detwi yo nèt, jis jan ke SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse la.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts to go forth to war against Israel, that they might be utterly destroyed, that mercy should not be granted to them, but that they should be utterly destroyed, as the Lord said to Moses.
21 Josué te vini nan tan sa a, e li te koupe Anakim yo nan peyi ti kolin yo, soti Hébron, soti Debir, soti Anab ak tout peyi ti kolin nan Juda yo e soti nan tout peyi ti kolin an Israël yo. Josué te detwi yo nèt avèk vil yo.
And Joshua came at that time, and utterly destroyed the Enakim out of the hill country, from Chebron and from Dabir, and from Anaboth, and from all the race of Israel, and from all the mountain of Juda with their cities; and Joshua utterly destroyed them.
22 Pa t gen Anakim ki te rete nan peyi fis Israël yo. Sèlman nan Gaza, nan Gath ak nan Asdod kèk te rete.
There was not [any one] left of the Enakim by the children of Israel, only there was left of them in Gaza, and in Gath, and in Aseldo.
23 Konsa, Josué te pran tout peyi a, selon tout sa ke SENYÈ a te pale a Moïse yo; epi Josué te bay li kòm eritaj a Israël selon divizyon pa yo selon tribi pa yo. Konsa, peyi a te gen repo kont lagè a.
And Joshua took all the land, as the Lord commanded Moses; and Joshua gave them for an inheritance to Israel by division according to their tribes; and the land ceased from war.
