1 Mgbe ahụ, o gosiri m Joshua onyeisi nchụaja ka ọ na-eguzo nʼihu mmụọ ozi nke Onyenwe anyị, na ekwensu ka ọ na-eguzo nʼaka nri ya ibo ya ebubo.
Afei ɔkyerɛɛ me ɔsɔfopanyin Yosua a ogyina Awurade bɔfo anim, na Satan gyina ne nifa so rebɛbɔ no sobo.
2 Onyenwe anyị sịrị ekwensu, “Onyenwe anyị basiere gị mba ike, gị ekwensu. Onyenwe anyị, onye họpụtara Jerusalem, basiere gị mba ike. Nwoke a, ọ bụghị ọlọkọ ọkụ na-ere ere, nke e si nʼime ọkụ gụpụta?”
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Satan se, “Awurade nka wʼanim, Satan! Awurade a wafa Yerusalem no, nka wʼanim. Saa ɔbarima yi nyɛ gyentia a wɔatu afi ogya mu ana?”
3 Mgbe Joshua guzo nʼihu mmụọ ozi ahụ, uwe ya ruru unyi.
Na Yosua hyɛ ntadefi, bere a ogyina ɔbɔfo no anim.
4 Mmụọ ozi ahụ gwara ndị ahụ guzo ya nʼihu, “Yipụnụ ya uwe a ruru unyi.” Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara ya okwu sị, “Lee, ewepụla m mmehie gị, ma ugbu a, aga m eyikwasị gị uwe mmemme ndị a.”
Ɔbɔfo no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn a wogyinagyina nʼanim no se, “Munnyi ne ho ntadefi no.” Afei ɔka kyerɛɛ Yosua se, “Hwɛ, mayi wo bɔne afi wo so, na mede ntade a ɛyɛ fɛ bɛhyɛ wo.”
5 Ekwuru m, “Ka ha were ezi akwa okike dị ọcha kee ya nʼisi.” Ya mere ha weere akwa okike dị ọcha kee ya nʼisi, yikwasịkwa ya uwe ọhụrụ. Mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị guzokwa nʼebe ahụ.
Afei mekae se, “Momfa abotiri a ani tew mmɔ ne ti.” Enti wɔde abotiri a ani tew bɔɔ no, na wɔhyɛɛ no atade, bere a Awurade bɔfo no gyina hɔ.
6 Mgbe ahụ, mmụọ ozi nke Onyenwe anyị nyere Joshua ndụmọdụ sị,
Na Awurade bɔfo de saa akwankyerɛ yi maa Yosua:
7 “Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru, ‘Ọ bụrụ na i jee ije nʼụzọ m niile, ọ bụrụkwa na i debe ihe niile m nyere gị nʼiwu, ị ga-abụ onyeisi ezinaụlọ m, ị ga-elekọta ụlọnsọ m anya, aga m enyekwa gị ọnọdụ nʼetiti ndị a niile guzo nʼebe a.
“Sɛɛ na Asafo Awurade se: ‘Sɛ wobɛyɛ osetie ama me na woayɛ mʼapɛde a, ɛno de, wubedi me fi so na woahwɛ mʼabangua so, na mɛma wo baabi atena wɔ nnipa a wogyinagyina ha yi mu.
8 “‘Gee m ntị, gị Joshua, onyeisi nchụaja na unu ndị nchụaja ndị ọzọ nọ nʼihu gị, ndị bụ ihe ngosi banyere ihe ọma niile nke gaje ịbịa. Agaje m ịkpọta nwaodibo m, onye bụ Ngalaba ahụ.
“‘Tie, Ɔsɔfopanyin Yosua, wo ne wo nkurɔfo a wɔtete wʼanim yi, moyɛ nnipa a wogyina hɔ ma nneɛma a ɛrebesisi: Mede me somfo, Dubaa no bɛba.
9 Lee, nkume nke m guzobere nʼihu Joshua. Nkume ahụ nwere akụkụ asaa nʼahụ ya, aga m egbunye akara dee ihe nʼelu ya. Aga m ewezugakwa mmehie nke ala a nʼotu ụbọchị.’ Ọ bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru.
Hwɛ, ɔbo a mede asi Yosua anim! Ani ason na etuatua saa ɔbo baako no ho, na mikurukyerɛw biribi wɔ so,’ sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni, ‘na mede da koro pɛ bɛpepa asase yi so bɔne.
10 “‘Nʼụbọchị ahụ, onye ọbụla nʼime unu ga-akpọbata mmadụ ibe ya, ka ọ bịa soro ya nọdụ nʼokpuru osisi vaịnị ya, na nʼokpuru osisi fiig ya.’ Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwubiri ya.”
“‘Saa da no mo mu biara bɛto nsa afrɛ ne yɔnko ne no akɔtena ne ngodua ne borɔdɔma dua ase,’ sɛnea Asafo Awurade se ni.”
