< Iosua 6 >

1 U A pani paa loa ia o Ieriko, no na mamo a Iseraela, aohe mea i puka aku iwaho, aole hoi he mea i komo mai iloko.
Now Jericho was tightly shut up because of the Israelites. No one went out and no one came in.
2 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Iosna, E nana, ua haawi aku au ia Ieriko i kou lima, a me kona alii, a me na mea koa nui.
And the LORD said to Joshua, “Behold, I have delivered Jericho into your hand, along with its king and its mighty men of valor.
3 E poai oukou i ua kulanakauhale la, o na kanaka kaua a pau, hookahi no ka poai ana ia kulanakauhale; pela e hana'i oe i na la eono.
March around the city with all the men of war, circling the city one time. Do this for six days.
4 Na na kahuna ehiku e lawe i na pu kiwi hipa ehiku, mamua o ka pahu; a i ka hiku o ka la, ehiku ko oukou poai ana i ua kulanakauhale nei, a e puhi no na kahuna i ka pu.
Have seven priests carry seven rams’ horns in front of the ark. Then on the seventh day, march around the city seven times, while the priests blow the horns.
5 A hiki i ka wa e puhi loihi ai lakou i ke kiwi hipa, a lohe oukou i ke kani ana o ua mau pu nei, alaila, e hooho na kanaka a pau i ka hooho nui. Alaila e hiolo loa ilalo ka pa o ua kulanakauhale la, a e pii no kela kanaka keia kanaka ma kona alo iho.
And when there is a long blast of the ram’s horn and you hear its sound, have all the people give a mighty shout. Then the wall of the city will collapse and all your people will charge straight into the city.”
6 Hea aku la o Iosua, ke keiki a Nuna i na kahuna, i aku la ia lakou, E hapai i ka pahuberita; a na na kahuna ehiku e lawe i na pu kiwi hipa ehiku, mamua o ka pahu o Iehova.
So Joshua son of Nun summoned the priests and said, “Take up the ark of the covenant and have seven priests carry seven rams’ horns in front of the ark of the LORD.”
7 I mai la ia i kanaka, O haele, a e poai i ke kulanakauhale, a o ka mea i makaukau i ke kaua, e hele ia mamua o ka pahu o Iehova.
And he told the people, “Advance and march around the city, with the armed troops going ahead of the ark of the LORD.”
8 A pau ka Iosua olelo ana i kanaka, alaila, hele ae la imua o Iehova, na kahuna ehiku, e lawe ana i na pu kiwi hipa ehiku, a puhi iho la lakou i ka pu; a hele ae la ka pahu o Iehova mahope o lakou.
After Joshua had spoken to the people, seven priests carrying seven rams’ horns before the LORD advanced and blew the horns, and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.
9 A o ka poe i makaukau i ke kaua, hele lakou mamua o na kahuna, ka poe i puhi i ka pu, a hele ka hunapaa mahope o ka pahu, a hele lakou me ke puhi i ka pu.
While the horns continued to sound, the armed troops marched ahead of the priests who blew the horns, and the rear guard followed the ark.
10 Ua kauoha no o Iosua i kanaka, me ka i aku, mai hooho oukou, aole hoi e uwalaau iki aku. Mai puka aku kekahi olelo, mailoko aku o ko oukou waha, a hiki i ka la a'u e olelo aku ai ia oukou, e hooho, alaila, e hooho oukou.
But Joshua had commanded the people: “Do not give a battle cry or let your voice be heard; do not let one word come out of your mouth until the day I tell you to shout. Then you are to shout!”
11 Poai aku la ka pahu o Iehova ia kulanakauhale, hookahi no ko lakou poai ana; a hoi mai lakou i kahi i hoomoana'i, a malaila lakou i moe ai.
So he had the ark of the LORD carried around the city, circling it once. And the people returned to the camp and spent the night there.
12 Ala mai la o Iosua i ke kakahiaka nui, a hapai ae la na kahuna i ka pahu o Iehova.
Joshua got up early the next morning, and the priests took the ark of the LORD.
13 A o na kahuna ehiku e lawe ana i na pu kiwi hipa ehiku, mamua o ka pahu o Iehova, hele ae la lakou me ke puhi i ka pu; a o ka poe i makaukau i ke kaua, hele ae la lakou mamua o na kahuna, a o ka hunapaa, hele ae la ia mahope o ka pahu o Iehova, a hele lakou me ke puhi i ka pu.
And the seven priests carrying seven rams’ horns kept marching ahead of the ark of the LORD and blowing the horns. The armed troops went in front of them and the rear guard followed the ark of the LORD, while the horns kept sounding.
14 Hookahi no ko lakou poai ana i ua kulanakauhale la, i ka lua o ka la; a hoi mai la lakou i kahi i hoomoana'i; a pela lakou i hana'i i na la eono.
So on the second day they marched around the city once and returned to the camp. They did this for six days.
15 A i ka hiku o ka la, ala lakou i ka wanaao, a ehiku ko lakou poai ana i ke kulanakauhale, e like me ka mea mamua; ehiku hoi ko lakou poai ana ia la.
Then on the seventh day, they got up at dawn and marched around the city seven times in the same manner. That was the only day they circled the city seven times.
16 A i ka hiku o ka poai ana, i ka wa i puhi na kahuna i ka pu, alaila, olelo ae la o Iosua i kanaka, E hooho oukou; no ka mea, na haawi mai o Iehova i ke kulanakauhale no oukou.
After the seventh time around, the priests blew the horns, and Joshua commanded the people, “Shout! For the LORD has given you the city!
17 A e laa kela kulanakauhale ia Iehova, oia, a me na mea a pau iloko. O Rahaba, o ka wahine hookamakama, oia wale no ke ola, oia a me na mea a pau iloko o ka hale me ia, no ka mea, nana no i huna i na elele a kakou i hoouna aku ai.
Now the city and everything in it must be devoted to the LORD for destruction. Only Rahab the prostitute and all those with her in her house will live, because she hid the spies we sent.
18 E malama hoi oukou ia oukou iho i na mea i laa, o laa oukou i ko oukou lawe ana i na mea laa, a hoolilo oukou i ka Iseraela i mea laa, a hoopilikia hoi ia lakou.
But keep away from the things devoted to destruction, lest you yourself be set apart for destruction. If you take any of these, you will set apart the camp of Israel for destruction and bring disaster upon it.
19 A o ke kala a pau, a me ke gula, a me na ipu keleawe a pau, a me ka hao, e kapu no ia mau mea no Iehova. E komo no ia iloko o ka waihona kala o Iehova.
For all the silver and gold and all the articles of bronze and iron are holy to the LORD; they must go into His treasury.”
20 A i ko lakou puhi ana i ka pu, hooho aku la na kanaka; a lohe na kanaka i ke kani ana o ka pu, a me ka hooho nui ana a kanaka i hooho ai, alaila hiolo ka pa ilalo, a pii aku la lakou i ke kulanakauhale, o kela kanaka keia kanaka ma kona alo iho, a pio ke kulanakauhale ia lakou.
So when the rams’ horns sounded, the people shouted. When they heard the blast of the horn, the people gave a great shout, and the wall collapsed. Then all the people charged straight into the city and captured it.
21 Me ka maka o ka pahi kaua lakou i luku loa ai i na mea a pau iloko o ke kulanakauhale, o na kane a me na wahine, o na mea opiopio, a me na mea kahiko, o ka bipi, a me ka hipa a me ka hoki.
At the edge of the sword they devoted to destruction everything in the city—man and woman, young and old, oxen, sheep, and donkeys.
22 Olelo aku la o Iosua i ua mau kanaka la nana i makai i ka aina, E komo olua iloko o ka hale o ka wahine hookipa, a e lawe mai iwaho i ka wahine a me kana mea a pau, e like me ka olua i hoohiki ai nona.
Meanwhile, Joshua told the two men who had spied out the land, “Go into the house of the prostitute and bring out the woman and all who are with her, just as you promised her.”
23 Komo aku la ua mau kanaka ui la o na kiu, a lawe mai la iwaho ia Rahaba, a me kona makuakane, a me kona makuwahine, a me na kaikunane ona, a me kona mau mea a pau; a lawe mai la no hoi lakou i kona poe hoahanau a pau, a waiho iho la ia lakou mawaho o kahi i hoomoana'i ka Iseraela.
So the young spies went in and brought out Rahab, her father and mother and brothers, and all who belonged to her. They brought out her whole family and settled them outside the camp of Israel.
24 Puhi iho la lakou i ke kulanakauhale i ke ahi, a me na mea a pau iloko; aka, o ke kala, a me ke gula, a me na ipu keleawe melemele, a me na ipu hao, waiho iho la lakou iloko o ka waihona kala o ka hale o Iehova.
Then the Israelites burned up the city and everything in it. However, they put the silver and gold and articles of bronze and iron into the treasury of the LORD’s house.
25 Hoola aku la o Iosua ia Rahaba, ka wahine hookipa, a me ka poe o kona makuakane, a me kona mea a pau, aia no hoi ia e noho la i neia la, me ka Iseraela; no ka mea, nana no i huna i na elele a Iosua i hoouna aku ai e makai ia Ieriko.
And Joshua spared Rahab the prostitute, with her father’s household and all who belonged to her, because she hid the men Joshua had sent to spy out Jericho. So she has lived among the Israelites to this day.
26 Ia manawa kauoha no o Iosua ia lakou, me ka hoohiki a me ka i ana aku, E poino auanei imua o Iehova, ke kanaka nana e ku ae a kukulu hou i keia kulanakauhale ia Ieriko. Me kana hiapo ia e hookumu ai, a me kana muli loa e hoopaa ai ia i na puka ona.
At that time Joshua invoked this solemn oath: “Cursed before the LORD is the man who rises up and rebuilds this city, Jericho; at the cost of his firstborn he will lay its foundations; at the cost of his youngest he will set up its gates.”
27 Aia no o Iehova me Iosua, a kaulana loa kona inoa ma na aina a pau.
So the LORD was with Joshua, and his fame spread throughout the land.
