Ɛberɛ a Amorifoɔ ahemfo nyinaa a wɔwɔ Yordan atɔeɛ fam ne Kanaanfoɔ ahemfo a wɔwɔ Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no mpoano tee sɛ Awurade ama Asubɔnten Yordan awe wɔ Israelfoɔ anim ama wɔatwa no, wɔn akoma tuiɛ na ehu kyekyeree wɔn.
2 A lokacin nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Ka yi wuƙaƙe na duwatsu ka yi wa Isra’ilawa kaciya.”
Saa ɛberɛ no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Yɛ twerɛboɔ sekammoa na fa twa Israelfoɔ no twetia bio.”
3 Sai Yoshuwa ya yi wuƙaƙe na duwatsu, ya yi wa Isra’ilawa kaciya a Gibeyat-Ha’aralot.
Enti, Yosua yɛɛ twerɛboɔ sekammoa no de twitwaa Israelfoɔ nyinaa twetia wɔ Aaralot kokoɔ so.
4 Dalilin da ya sa ya yi haka shi ne, dukan waɗanda suka fito daga Masar, dukan mazan da suka kai shekarun shiga soja, sun mutu a cikin jeji a hanya bayan sun bar Masar.
Na ɛsɛ sɛ Yosua twitwa wɔn twetia, ɛfiri sɛ, mmarima a na wɔanyinyini a wɔtumi ko wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔfirii Misraim no nyinaa awuwu wɔ ɛserɛ no so.
5 Dukan mutanen da suka fito daga Masar an yi musu kaciya, amma duk waɗanda aka haifa a jeji a tafiya daga Masar, ba a yi musu ba.
Nnipa a wɔtu firii Misraim baeɛ no, na wɔatwitwa wɔn nyinaa twetia. Nanso wɔn a wɔwowoo wɔn wɔ ɛserɛ no so wɔ Otukorɔ berɛ no mu no deɛ, na wɔntwitwaa wɔn twetia.

8 Kuma bayan da aka yi wa al’ummar kaciya dukansu, sai suka dakata a nan, sai da suka warke.
Ɔtwaa mmarima no nyinaa twetia wieeɛ no, wɔgyee wɔn ahome wɔ atenaeɛ hɔ kɔsii sɛ wɔn ho tɔɔ wɔn.
9 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Yau na kawar muku da zargin Masar.” Saboda haka ake kiran sunan wurin Gilgal har wa yau.

10 Da yamman rana ta goma sha huɗu ga wata, lokacin da suke a Gilgal a filin Yeriko, Isra’ilawa suka yi Bikin Ƙetarewa.
Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ no wɔ Gilgal atenaeɛ hɔ wɔ Yeriko asase parada no so no, wɔdii Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda a ɛtɔ so dunan no anwummerɛ. Saa bosome no na wɔde kae ɛberɛ a wɔtu firii Misraim no.
