Yoshuwa 6
1 Ƙofofin Yeriko kuwa a kulle suke ciki da waje saboda Isra’ilawa, ba mai fita babu kuma mai shiga.
Now Jericho was shut up and was barred, because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
2 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Duba, na ba ka nasara a kan Yeriko, duk da sarkinta da mayaƙanta.
And Jehovah said to Joshua, See, I have given into thy hand Jericho, and the king thereof, [and] the valiant men.
3 Da kai da dukan sojoji, ku zaga birnin sau ɗaya kullum. Ku yi haka har kwana shida.
And ye shall go round the city, all the men of war, encompassing the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.
4 Ka sa firistoci guda bakwai su riƙe ƙahoni raguna su kasance a gaban akwatin alkawari. A rana ta bakwai sai ku zaga birnin sau bakwai, firistocin suna busa ƙahoni.
And seven priests shall carry before the ark seven blast-trumpets; and on the seventh day ye shall go round the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.
5 Sa’ad da kuka ji sun ɗauki dogon lokaci suna busa ƙaho, sai mutane gaba ɗaya su tā da murya su yi ihu da ƙarfi; katangar birnin kuwa za tă rushe, sai sojoji su haura, ko wanne yă nufi inda ya fuskanta kai tsaye.”
And it shall come to pass when they make a long blast with the blast-horn, that all the people on hearing the sound of the trumpet shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall flat, and the people shall go up, each one straight before him.
6 Yoshuwa ɗan Nun kuwa ya kira firistoci ya ce musu, “Ku ɗauki akwatin alkawari, ku sa firistoci guda bakwai su riƙe ƙahoni su kasance a gabansa.”
And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them, Carry the ark of the covenant, and seven priests shall carry seven blast-trumpets before the ark of Jehovah.
7 Sai ya umarci jama’a ya ce, “Mu je zuwa! Ku zaga birnin, masu tsaro da makamai su shiga gaban akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji.”
And he said to the people, Pass on, go round the city, and they that are armed shall pass on before the ark of Jehovah.
8 Da Yoshuwa ya gama yin wa mutane magana, sai firistoci guda bakwai waɗanda suke riƙe da ƙahoni guda bakwai a gaban Ubangiji suka sha gaba suna busa ƙahoninsu, akwatin alkawari kuwa yana biye da su.
And it came to pass when Joshua had spoken to the people, that the seven priests carrying the seven blast-trumpets before Jehovah passed on and blew with the trumpets; and the ark of the covenant of Jehovah went after them.
9 Masu tsaro da makamai kuma suna gaban firistoci waɗanda suke busa ƙahoni, masu tsaro daga baya kuma suna bin akwatin alkawari, ana ta busa ƙahoni.
And the armed men went before the priests who blew with the trumpets, and the rearguard came after the ark; they blew with the trumpets in marching.
10 Amma Yoshuwa ya umarci mutane ya ce, “Kada ku yi kururuwar yaƙi, kada ku tā da murya, kada ku ce kome, sai ranar da na ce ku yi ihu, a sa’an nan ne sai ku yi ihu!”
And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, neither shall a word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I say to you, Shout; then shall ye shout.
11 Sai ya sa aka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji aka kewaye birnin da shi sau ɗaya, sa’an nan mutane suka dawo masauƙinsu suka kwana a can.
And the ark of Jehovah went round the city, encompassing [it] once; and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
12 Kashegari, Yoshuwa ya tashi da sassafe, firistoci kuma suka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji.
And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests carried the ark of Jehovah.
13 Firistoci guda bakwai waɗanda suke riƙe da ƙahoni guda bakwai suka shiga gaba, suna takawa a gaban akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji suna kuma busa ƙahoni, masu tsaro ɗauke da makamai suna gabansu, sai masu tsaro da suke baya suna biye da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji.
And the seven priests carrying the seven blast-trumpets before the ark of Jehovah went on and blew continually with the trumpets; and the armed men went before them, and the rearguard went after the ark of Jehovah; they blew with the trumpets in marching.
14 A rana ta biyu suka sāke zaga birnin sau ɗaya, suka kuma koma masauƙinsu. Haka suka yi har kwana shida.
And on the second day they went round the city once, and returned into the camp. So they did six days.
15 A rana ta bakwai, suka tashi da sassafe suka zaga birnin sau bakwai yadda suka saba. A wannan rana kaɗai ne suka zaga birnin sau bakwai.
And it was so that on the seventh day they rose early, about the morning-dawn, and went round the city after the same manner seven times; only on that day they went round the city seven times.
16 A zagawa ta bakwai, da firistoci suka busa ƙahoni, sai Yoshuwa ya ba sojojin umarni ya ce, “Ku yi ihu, gama Ubangiji ya ba ku birnin!
And it came to pass the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, that Joshua said to the people, Shout; for Jehovah has given you the city.
17 Birnin da dukan abin da yake cikinta za a miƙa su ga Ubangiji. Rahab karuwan nan kaɗai ce, da dukan waɗanda suke tare da ita a gidanta za a bari da rai domin ta ɓoye’yan leƙen asirin ƙasa da muka aika.
And the city shall be accursed, it and all that is in it, to Jehovah; only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
18 Amma, ba za ku ɗauki wani abin da za a hallaka ba, idan kuka yi haka, za ku jawo masifa da hallaka a kan mutanen Isra’ila a inda kuka sauka.
But in any wise keep from the accursed thing, lest ye make [yourselves] accursed in taking of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.
19 Dukan azurfa da zinariya, da kwanonin tagulla da na ƙarfe, keɓaɓɓu ne ga Ubangiji, dole a sa su cikin ma’ajin Ubangiji.”
And all the silver, and gold, and vessels of copper and iron, shall be holy to Jehovah; they shall come into the treasury of Jehovah.
20 Da aka busa ƙahoni, sojoji suka yi ihu, da jin ƙarar ƙahoni, mutane suka kuma yi ihu, sai katangar ta rushe; dukan mutanen kuwa suka shiga birnin kai tsaye, suka yi nasara a kanta.
And the people shouted, and they blew with the trumpets. And it came to pass when the people heard the sound of the trumpets, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat; and the people went up into the city, each one straight before him, and they took the city.
21 Suka miƙa wa Ubangiji birnin, suka hallaka kowane abu mai ran da yake cikin birnin da takobi, maza da mata, yara da tsofaffi, shanu, tumaki da jakuna.
And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city; both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.
22 Yoshuwa ya ce wa mutanen nan biyu waɗanda suka je leƙen asirin ƙasar, “Ku shiga gidan karuwan nan ku fitar da ita da duk waɗanda suke nata bisa ga alkawarin da kuka yi mata.”
And Joshua said to the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot's house and bring out thence the woman, and all that she has, as ye swore unto her.
23 Sai samarin waɗanda suka je leƙen asirin suka shiga suka fitar da Rahab, mahaifinta da mahaifiyarta, da’yan’uwanta da duk abin da yake nata. Suka fitar da iyalinta gaba ɗaya suka sa su a wani wuri, ba a cikin masauƙin Isra’ilawa ba.
And the young men, the spies, went in and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had: all her kindred did they bring out, and they left them outside the camp of Israel.
24 Sa’an nan suka ƙona birnin tare da dukan abin da yake ciki tatas, amma suka sa azurfa da zinariya da kayan tagulla da na ƙarfe a cikin ma’aji na haikalin Ubangiji.
And they burned the city with fire, and all that was therein; only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of copper and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of Jehovah.
25 Amma Yoshuwa ya bar Rahab karuwan nan bai kashe ta ba, ita da iyalinta da duk abin da yake nata, domin ita ta ɓoye mutanen da Yoshuwa ya aika Yeriko don su leƙo asirin ƙasar kuma ta zauna tare da Isra’ilawa har wa yau.
And Joshua saved alive Rahab the harlot, and her father's household, and all that she had, and she dwelt in the midst of Israel to this day; because she hid the messengers whom Joshua had sent to spy out Jericho.
26 A lokacin nan Yoshuwa ya yi wannan alkawari cewa, “Ubangiji zai tsine wa mutumin da zai yi ƙoƙarin sāke gina birnin nan, Yeriko. “A bakin ran ɗan farinsa zai kafa harsashin birnin; a bakin ran ɗan autansa kuma zai sa ƙofofin birnin.”
And Joshua swore at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before Jehovah who shall rise up and build this city Jericho! In his first-born shall he lay its foundation, and in his youngest son shall he set up its gates.
27 Ubangiji ya kasance tare da Yoshuwa, aka kuma san da shi a duk fāɗin ƙasar.
And Jehovah was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.
