Iosua 10
1 EIA hoi kekahi; a lohe o Adonizedeka, ke alii o Ierusalema, i ke pio ana o Ai ia Iosua, a me kona luku ana ia wahi; e like me kana hana ana ia Ieriko a me kona alii, pela kana hana ana ia Ai, me ko laila alii; a ua hookuikahi aku na kanaka o Gibeona me ka Iseraela, a ua noho pu me lakou;
Later, Adonizedek, the king of Jerusalem, heard that Joshua’s army had captured Ai [town] and had destroyed everything in the town. He heard that they had done to the people of Ai and to their king the same thing that they had done to the people of Jericho and their king. He also heard that the people of Gibeon [city] had made a peace treaty with the Israeli people, and that the people of Gibeon were now living near the Israelis and being protected by them.
2 Makau loa oia, me kona poe, no ka mea, he kulanakanhale nui o Gibeona, me he kulanakauhale alii la, no ka mea, oia ka nui o laua o Ai, a o ko laila poe kanaka a pau, he poe koa loa.
Because of that, he and the people whom he ruled became very afraid, because Gibeon was an important city, like the other cities that had kings. And [even though] Gibeon was a larger city than Ai and all its soldiers were good fighters, [they thought Joshua’s army might defeat them].
3 Nolaila kii aku la o Adonizedeka, ke alii o Ierusalema, ia Hohama, i ke alii o Heberona, a ia Pirama, i ke alii o Iaremuta, a ia Iapia, i ke alii o Lakisa, a ia Debira, ke alii o Egelona, i aku la ia lakou,
So King Adonizedek sent a message to Hosham the king of Hebron [city], to Piram the king of Jarmuth [city], to Jarmuth the king of Lachish [city], and to Debir the king of Eglon [city].
4 E hele mai oukou io'u nei, e kokua mai ia'u, i pepehi kakou i ko Gibeona; no ka mea, ua hookuikahi lakou me Iosua a me na mamo a Iseraela.
In the message he said, “Please come up with your armies and help me to attack Gibeon, because the people of Gibeon have made a peace treaty with Joshua and the Israelis.”
5 Alaila, akoakoa mai la na'lii elima o ka Amora, o ke alii o Ierusalema, o ke alii o Heberona, o ke alii o Iaremuta, o ke alii o Lakisa, a me ke alii o Egelona, a pii aku la lakou a me ko lakou huna kau a a pau, a hoomoana iho la ma ke alo o Gibeona, a kaua aku la.
So those five kings who ruled all the groups who were descendants of Amor—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Debir—came up with all of their soldiers and surrounded the city. Then they prepared to attack it.
6 Hoouna koke mai la na kanaka o Gibeona ia Iosua, ma kahi ana i hoomoana'i ma Gilegala, i mai la, Mai hookaulua oe i kou lima i kau poe kauwa nei; e pii koke mai io makou nei, e hoopakele, a e kokua mai ia makou; no ka mea, ua akoakoa mai nei na'lii a pau o ka Amora, ka poe e noho ana ma na mauna, e ku e ia makou.
So the people of Gibeon sent a message to Joshua while he was in the camp at Gilgal. They said, “We are your servants. So do not forsake us. Come up to us quickly and save us! Help us, because the kings of all of the groups descended from Amor and their armies have joined their forces and have come from the hilly area to attack us!”
7 Alaila, pii aku la o Iosua, mai Gilegala aku, oia, a me na kanaka kaua a pau pu me ia, a me ka poe koa ikaika a pau.
So Joshua and all his army, including the soldiers who were his best fighting men, marched up from Gilgal.
8 I mai la o Iehova ia Iosua, Mai makau ia lakou; no ka mea, ua haawi au ia lakou a pau iloko o kou lima, aole loa e ku kekahi kanaka o lakou imua ou.
Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of those armies! I will enable your army to defeat them [IDM]. None of them will be able to (resist/fight and defeat) your army.”
9 Hiki koke aku la o Iosua ia lakou, i kona hele ana, mai Gilegala aku i ka po a ao.
Joshua’s army marched all night and arrived very early in the morning.
10 Hooauhee aku la o Iehova ia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, a luku aku la oia ia lakou i ka make nui loa, ma Gibeona, a hahai aku la no hoi oia ia lakou, ma ke ala e hiki aku ai i Betehorona, a pepehi iho la ia lakou a hiki i Azeka, a i Makeda.
They attacked their enemies before anyone knew that they had come. Yahweh caused their enemies to (become very confused/start running in all directions) when they saw the Israeli army. As a result, the Israeli army defeated them very severely at Gibeon [and killed many of them]. The rest of them fled along the road that goes up to Beth-Horon. But the Israeli army pursued them and killed them all along the road that goes to Azekah and Makkedah towns.
11 A i ko lakou hee ana imua o ka Iseraela, i ko lakou iho ana i Betehorona, hoolei mai la o Iehova i na pohaku nui maluna o lakou, mai ka lani mai, a hiki i Azeka, a make lakou. Ua nui ka poe i make i ka huahekili, he hapa ka poe i make i na mamo a Iseraela, i ka pahikaua.
As they fled in front of the Israeli army, Yahweh threw down huge hailstones from the sky. As a result, more of them died from hailstones falling on them than died as a result of the Israeli army killing them with swords.
12 Alaila, olelo aku la o Iosua ia Iehova, i ka la i haawi mai ai o Iehova i ka Amora na na mamo a Iseraela, i aku la ia imua o ke alo o ka Iseraela, E ka la, e kau malie oe maluna o Gibeona, a o oe hoi, e ka mahina, maluna o ke awawa o Aialona.
On the day that Yahweh enabled the Israeli army to defeat the groups who were descendants of Amor, Joshua said to Yahweh while the Israeli people were listening, “Yahweh, cause the sun to stand still over Gibeon, and cause the moon to not move when it is over Aijalon Valley.”
13 Kau malie iho la ka la, a ku malie no hoi ka mahina, a hoopai aku la na kanaka i ko lakou, poe enemi. Aole anei keia ka mea i palapalaia ma ka buke a Iasera? Kau malie no ka la mawaena o ka lani, aole i hoomau i kona hele a pau ka la hookahi.
And that is what happened. The sun stood still, and the moon did not move, until the Israeli army defeated their enemies. That is what has been written in the book that Jashar wrote. The sun stopped while it was in the middle of the sky, and did not (set/go down) for about a whole day.
14 Aole la e like me ia mamua, aole hoi mahope, i lohe ai o Iehova i ka leo o ke kanaka; no ka mea, kaua maoli no o Iehova mamuli o ka Iseraela.
On that day Yahweh did a great miracle that someone asked him to do. There was never a day like that previously, and there has never been a day like that since. Yahweh was certainly fighting for the Israeli people!
15 Hoi mai la o Iosua a me ka Iseraela a pau pu me ia, a i kahi i hoomoana'i ma Gilegala.
After Joshua’s army defeated their enemies, they all returned to their camp at Gilgal.
16 Holo aku la ua mau alii nei elima, a pee iho la iloko o ke ana ma Makeda.
While the enemy soldiers were fleeing from Joshua’s army, their five kings also fled and hid in a cave at Makkedah [town].
17 Ua haiia mai ia Iosua, i ka i ana mai, Ua loaa na'lii elima, ua pee lakou iloko o kekahi ana aia ma Makeda.
Then someone told Joshua, “We found those five kings, hiding in a cave at Makkedah!”
18 I aku la o Iosua, E olokaa i mau pohaku nui ma ka waha o ke ana, a e hoonoho i mau kanaka e kiai ia lakou:
When Joshua heard that, he said, “Roll some very large rocks to the entrance of the cave so that the kings cannot escape, and leave some soldiers there to guard it.
19 Mai kakali oukou, e hahai oukou i ko oukou poe enemi, a e pepehi i ko lakou hopena. Mai kuu aku ia lakou e komo iloko o ko lakou mau kulanakauhale; no ka mea, na Iehova ko oukou Akua i haawi mai ia lakou i ko oukou lima.
But do not stay there! Pursue our enemies! Attack them from behind! Do not allow them to escape to their cities, because Yahweh, our God, will enable you to defeat/kill them. [IDM]”
20 Luku aku la o Iosua a me na mamo a Iseraela ia lakou i ka make nui loa, a oki loa iho la lakou, alaiia, holo aku la ke koena o lakou a komo iloko o na kulanakauhale i paa i ka pa.
So Joshua’s army did what he told them to do. They killed almost all of the enemy soldiers, but a few of them were able to reach their cities and be safe inside the walls of the cities.
21 Hoi maluhia mai la na kanaka a pau i kahi a lakou i hoomoana'i, io Iosua la, ma Makeda. Aole loa i hookala kekahi i kona alelo i na mamo a Iseraela.
Then Joshua’s army returned to Joshua, who was still in their camp at Makkedah. No one in the land dared to criticize [MTY] the Israelis.
22 I aku la o Iosua, E wehe i ka waha o ke ana, a e lawe mai iwaho io u nei, i ua mau alii la elima, mai ke aua mai.
Then Joshua said, “Open the entrance of the cave, and bring out to me those five kings!”
23 Hana iho la no lakou pela, a lawe mai la i ua mau alii la elima io na la, mai ke ana mai; o ke alii o Ierusalema, a me ke alii o Heberona, a me ke alii o Iaremuta, a me ke alii o Lakisa, a me ke alii o Egelona.
So the soldiers brought those five kings out of the cave—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon.
24 A i ka wa i lawe mai ai lakou i ua mau alii nei io Iosua la, alaila, hea aku la o Iosua i kanaka a pau o ka Iseraela, i aku la i na alihi o ka poe koa, i hele pu me ia, E neenee mai oukou, a e hehi ko oukou kapuwai maluna o na a-i o keia poe alii. Neenee mai la lakou a hehi aku la ko lakou kapuwai, maluna o ko lakou mau a-i.
When they brought those kings to Joshua [and forced them to lie on the ground], he summoned all the Israeli soldiers, and then he said to the army commanders, “Come here and put your feet on the necks of these kings!” So the commanders did that.
25 I aku la o Iosua ia lakou, Mai makau oukou, aole hoi e weliweli; e ikaika oukou, a e koa hoi, no ka mea, pela no e hana mai ai o Iehova i na euemi a pau a oukou e kaua aku ai.
Then Joshua said to them, “Do not be afraid of any of our enemies! Never be discouraged! Be strong and courageous. This is what Yahweh will do to all the enemies you will fight!”
26 A mahope iho, luku aku la o Iosua ia lakou a pepehi iho la, a kaawe ae la ma na laau elima; a e kaulia ana no lakou ma na laau, a hiki i ke ahiahi.
Then Joshua killed each of the five kings with his sword, and told his soldiers to hang the bodies of the five kings on trees. So they did that, and they left the bodies hanging on the trees until sunset.
27 A hiki i ka manawa i napoo ai ka la, kauoha ae la o Iosua, e kuu ia lakou mailuua iho o na laau, a e kiola ia lakou iloko o ke ana, ma kahi a lakou i pee aku ai; a waiho aku la i na pohaku nui ma ka waha o ke ana, a hiki loa mai i neia la.
At sunset, Joshua told them to take the bodies down from the trees and throw them into the cave where they had been hiding. So the soldiers did that, and then they put those large rocks at the entrance of the cave again. Those rocks are still there.
28 Ia la no i hoopio ai o Iosua ia Makeda, a luku aku la me ka maka o ka pahikaua, a pepehi aku la i ko laila alii a make loa, o lakou, a me ko laila kanaka a pau, aole ia i waiho i kekahi koena. Hana aku la ia i ko laila alii, e like me ia i hana aku ai i ke alii o Ieriko.
That is how Joshua’s army attacked and captured Makkedah. They killed the king and everyone else in the town. They did not leave anyone alive. They did to the king of Makkedah the same thing that they had done to the king of Jericho.
29 Hele aku la o Iosua, a me ka Iseraela a pau pu me ia, mai Makeda aku a hiki i Libena, a kaua aku la ia Libena.
That same day, Joshua and his Israeli army went [southwest] from Makkedah to Libnah [city] and attacked it.
30 Haawi mai no hoi o Iehova ia wahi a me ko laila alii a me ko laila poe kanaka a pau, i ka lima o ka Iseraela, a luku aku la oia ia wahi ma ka maka o ka pahikaua; aole ia i waiho i koena ma ia wahi. Hana aku no hoi ia i ko laila alii e like me ia i hana aku ai i ke alii o Ieriko.
Yahweh enabled the Israelis to conquer [MTY] that city and its king. They killed everyone in the city; they did not (spare anyone/allow anyone to remain alive). They killed the king of Libnah just like they had killed the king of Jericho.
31 Hele aku la o Iosua, a me ka Iseraela a pau pu me ia mai Libena aku a Lakisa, hoomoana iho la ma ke alo o ia wahi, a kaua aku la.
Then Joshua and his army went [south] from Libnah to Lachish [city]. They surrounded the city and attacked it.
32 Haawi mai la o Iehova ia Lakisa i ka lima o ka Iseraela, a i ka lua o ka la, hoopio iho la oia ia wahi a luku aku la ia wahi ma ka maka o ka pahikaua, a me na kanaka a pau ma ia wahi, e like me na mea a pau ana i hana aku ai ia Libena.
On the second day of the battle, Yahweh enabled the Israelis to conquer [MTY] the city. And like they had done at Libnah, they killed everyone [DOU] in the city.
33 Alaila, hele ae la o Horama, ke alii o Gezera, e kokua mamuli o Lakisa. Luku aku la o Iosua ia ia, a me kona kanaka, a pau loa lakou i ka make, aole i koe.
King Horam from Gezer [city and his army] came to help [the soldiers of] Lachish, but Joshua’s [army] defeated Horam and his army, and did not allow any of them to remain alive.
34 Hele aku la o Iosua a me ka Iseraela a pau pu me ia, mai Lakisa aku a Egelona, a hoomoana iho la ma ke alo o ia wahi, a kaua aku la ia ia.
Then Joshua and his army went [west] from Lachish to Eglon [city]. They surrounded the city and attacked it.
35 Hoopio iho la lakou ia wahi ia la no, a luku aku la ia wahi ma ka maka o ka pahikaua, a me ko laila kanaka a pau, luku loa aku la ia, e like me na mea a pau ana i hana aku ai ia Lakisa.
On that day, they captured the city and killed [MTY] everyone in it [DOU], just like they had done at Lachish.
36 Hele aku la o Iosua, a me ka Iseraela a pau pu me ia, mai Egelona aku a Heberona, a kaua aku la ia wahi.
Then Joshua and his army went [west from Eglon] up [into the hills] to Hebron [city]. They attacked the city
37 Hoopio iho la lakou ia wahi, a luku aku la ma ka maka o ka pahikaua, a me ko laila alii, a me ko laila kulanakauhale a pau, a me ko laila kanaka a pau; aole ia i waiho i koena, e like me na mea a pau ana i hana aku ai ia Egelona. Hooki loa iho la oia ia wahi a me ko laila kanaka a pau.
and captured it. They killed the king and everyone else, just like they had done at Eglon. They did not allow anyone to remain alive.
38 Hoi mai la o Iosua a me ka Iseraela a pau pu me ia, a i Debira, a kaua ae la ia wahi;
Then Joshua and his army turned [south] and went to Debir [city] and attacked it.
39 A hoopio iho la, a me ko laila alii, a me ko laila kulanakauhale a pau, a luku aku la ia lakou ma ka maka o ka pahikaua, a hooki loa iho la ia i kanaka a pau o ia wahi, aole i waiho i koena; e like me ia i hana aku ai ia Heberona, pela no ia i hana'i ia Debira, a me kona alii, e like hoi me ia i hana'i ia Libena, a me kona alii.
They captured the city and its king, and also captured the nearby towns. Then they killed everyone [DOU]; they did to the people there the same thing that they had done at Hebron and Libnah.
40 Luku aku la o Iosua i ka aina mauna a pau, a ma ka lima hema, a ma kahi papu, a ma kahi haahaa, a me ko laila poe alii a pau. Aole ia i waiho i kekahi koena. Hooki loa iho la ia i na mea hanu a pau, e like me ke kauoha ana mai o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
That is how Joshua [and his army] conquered the entire southern part of Canaan. They defeated the kings [who ruled] the hilly area, the dry southern area, the [western] foothills, and the [eastern] slopes. They killed everyone [DOU] in those areas; they did not allow anyone to remain alive.
41 Luku aku la o Iosua ia lakou, mai Kadesabanea a hiki i Gaza, a me ka aina a pau o Gosena a hiki loa i Gibeona.
Joshua’s soldiers captured all the cities from Kadesh-Barnea [city] in the far south to Gaza [city] near the coast, including all the Goshen area, and north to Gibeon [city].
42 Hoopio iho la o Iosua i keia poe alii a pau, a me ko lakou aina, i kela wa hookahi no, no ka mea, na Iehova no, ke Akua o ka Iseraela, i kaua mai mamuli o ka Iseraela.
At that one time, Joshua’s army conquered all the kings and captured all the territory that they [ruled]. They were able to do that because Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli people [worship], was fighting for them.
43 Hoi mai la o Iosua, a me ka Iseraela a pau pu me ia, a hiki i kahi a lakou i hoomoana'i ma Gilegala.
Then Joshua and his army returned to their camp at Gilgal.
