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.
Meanwhile, the guards of Jericho shut the gates of the city tightly, because [they were afraid] of the Israeli [army]. No one was allowed to go into the city or go out of it.
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.
Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “Listen [to what I say]! I am going to enable your army [SYN] to capture/conquer [MTY] Jericho and its king and its soldiers.
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.
So your army must march around the city for six days, once each day.
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.
Tell seven priests to march around with them. Each priest must carry a trumpet. Four other priests must carry the sacred chest, and they must walk behind the priests who are carrying the trumpets. On the seventh day, the army must march around the city seven times, and the priests must be blowing the trumpets while they march.
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.
[After they have all marched around the city seven times], the priests must blow their trumpets [once], very loudly. When the Israeli people/soldiers hear that, they must shout loudly. Then the wall of the city will collapse, and all the Israeli people/soldiers will go 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 summoned the priests and said to them, “Tell four priests to carry the chest [that contains] the Ten Commandments that Yahweh [gave to us]. [Tell] seven [other] priests to carry trumpets and walk in front of them.”
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 Joshua told the soldiers, “Start marching! March around the city, with several soldiers with weapons marching in front. Behind them will march the seven priests with trumpets, and behind them will march the four priests carrying Yahweh’s [sacred] chest.”
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 told that to the army, the seven priests, each carrying a sacred trumpet, started marching, blowing their trumpets. The four priests who were carrying Yahweh’s sacred chest 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.
The group of soldiers carrying weapons marched in front of the priests who were blowing their trumpets, and the rest of the soldiers followed [the four men carrying] the chest. While [they were all marching], [the seven priests] were blowing their trumpets.
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 [the rest of] the people [were silent, because] Joshua had commanded them, “Do not make a war cry. Do not yell or say anything until the day when I tell you to shout. On that day, you must shout [loudly]!”
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 the men carrying Yahweh’s sacred chest and all the others did what Joshua told them to do. They marched around the city once. Then they all returned to their camp and stayed there that night.
12 Ala mai la o Iosua i ke kakahiaka nui, a hapai ae la na kahuna i ka pahu o Iehova.
The next morning, Joshua and the priests got up early, and the four priests carried Yahweh’s sacred chest [again].
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.
The seven priests who were carrying trumpets went in front of [the men carrying] the chest. The seven priests were blowing their trumpets as they marched. The group of soldiers carrying weapons went in front of all the others, and the rest of the army followed all the others. All the time, the seven priests were blowing their trumpets.
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 that second day they again marched around the city once and then returned to their camp. They did the same thing 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.
On the seventh day, they got up at dawn, and they all marched around the city the same way that they had done before, but this time they marched around 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.
As they were marching around the seventh time, when the priests were about to blow the long/loud blast on their trumpets, Joshua commanded the people, “Shout, because Yahweh will enable you to capture 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.
Yahweh has declared that you must destroy [IDM] the city and everything in it [to show that it belongs to him]. You must spare only Rahab the prostitute and the others who are in her house, because she hid the spies whom we sent there.
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.
And because Yahweh has declared that everything must be destroyed [IDM], you must not take [EUP] any of the things in the city. If you take anything, you will cause Yahweh to destroy our own camp and cause terrible things to happen to us.
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.
But all the silver and gold and articles made from iron and bronze that you find, you must set apart for Yahweh. You must put those things in 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 they did what Joshua told them to do. When the priests blew a long blast on their trumpets, the people/army shouted loudly, and the wall of the city collapsed! Then the Israeli soldiers rushed in and captured the city.
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.
They killed [IDM] every living thing in the city—men and women, young people and old people, even cattle and 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.
Then Joshua said to the two men (who had spied on/whom he had sent to learn all they could about) the land, “Go to the prostitute’s house. Bring her out, along with all her family, just as you promised to 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 those two spies/men went into Rahab’s house and brought her out. They also brought out her father and mother and her brothers, and all the rest of her family. Joshua’s men spared Rahab the prostitute. They also did not kill all her relatives, because she had hidden and protected the spies/men whom Joshua had sent to Jericho. The two men brought them all out and put them in a place outside the camp of the Israelis. Rahab still lives among us Israeli people. Then the soldiers gathered the articles made from silver, gold, bronze, and iron that they found and they put them all into Yahweh’s treasury. But they burned everything else that was in the city.
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.
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.
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 warned the people, “Yahweh will curse/punish anyone who tries to rebuild this city, Jericho. When that person lays/builds its foundation, his oldest son will die. And when he finishes building the city wall and sets up its gates, his youngest son will die.”
27 Aia no o Iehova me Iosua, a kaulana loa kona inoa ma na aina a pau.
Because of what happened that day, it was clear that Yahweh was with/helped Joshua, and Joshua became famous throughout the land.
