Josue 2
1 Sililimed ngarud a nangibaon ni Josue nga anak ni Nun iti dua a lallaki a kas espia manipud Settim. Kinunana, “Mapankayo iti entero a daga, nangnangruna iti Jerico.” Napanda ket dimtengda iti balay ti maysa a balangkantis nga agnagan iti Rahab, ket nagdagusda sadiay.
And Joshua the son of Nun secretly sent two young men out of Shittim as spies, saying, "Go, view the land, and Jericho." And the two young men went and came to Jericho and entered into the house of a prostitute whose name was Rahab, and slept there.
2 Naipakaammo daytoy iti ari ti Jerico, “Immay ditoy dagiti lallaki manipud Israel a mangsiim iti daga.”
The king of Jericho was told, "Look, men of the children of Israel came in here to spy out the land."
3 Nangipadanon ti ari iti sao kenni Rahab ket kinunana, “Iruarmo dagiti lallaki nga immay kenka a simrek iti balaymo, ta immayda a mangsiim iti entero a daga.”
The king of Jericho sent to Rahab, saying, "Bring out the men who came to you tonight; for they have come to spy out all the land."
4 Ngem innalan idi ti babai dagiti dua a lallaki ket inlemmengna ida. Ket kinunana, “Wen, immay kaniak dagiti lallaki, ngem saanko nga ammo no sadino ti naggapuanda.
The woman took the two men and hid them. Then she said, "Yes, the men came to me, but I did not know where they came from.
5 Pimmanawda idi sumipnget, idi agrikep ti ruangan ti siudad. Saanko nga ammo ti napananda. Mabalin a matiliwyo ida no darasenyo ida a kamaten.”
It happened about the time of the shutting of the gate, when it was dark, that the men went out. Where the men went, I do not know. Pursue them quickly; for you will overtake them."
6 Ngem pinaulina idi ida iti bubungan ti balay ket inlemmengna ida kadagiti kayo ti lino nga inkabilna iti rabaw daytoy.
But she had brought them up to the roof, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order on the roof.
7 Kinamat ngarud dagiti lallaki dagiti dua nga espia nga agturong iti pagballasiwan ti Jordan. Ket nagrikep dagiti ruangan apaman a nakaruar dagiti mangkamkamat.
The men pursued them the way to the Jordan to the fords: and as soon as those who pursued them had gone out, they shut the gate.
8 Saan pay a nakaidda dagiti dua nga espia idi inuli ida ti babai idiay pangatepan.
Before they had lain down, she came up to them on the roof;
9 Kinunana, “Ammok nga inted kadakayo ni Yahweh ti daga ta immay kadakami ti panagbuteng kadakayo. Agrunaw iti sangoananyo ti amin nga agnanaed iti daga.”
and she said to the men, "I know that the LORD has given you the land, and that the fear of you has fallen on us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt away before you.
10 Nangngeganmi no kasano a pinamaga ni Yahweh ti danum ti Baybay dagiti Runo para kadakayo idi rimuarkayo manipud Egipto. Ken nangngeganmi ti inaramidyo kadagiti dua nga ari dagiti Amorreo idiay bangir ti Jordan—ni Sihon ken ni Og— a naan-anay a dinadaelyo.
For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea before you, when you came out of Egypt; and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon and to Og, whom you utterly destroyed.
11 Apaman a nangngeganmi daytoy, narunaw dagiti pusomi ket awan ti nabati a tured iti siasinoman—ta ni Yahweh a Diosyo ket Dios sadi-langit ken iti rabaw ti daga.
As soon as we had heard it, our hearts melted, neither did there remain any more spirit in any man, because of you: for the LORD your God, he is God in heaven above, and on earth beneath.
12 Ita ngarud, pangngaasiyo ta isapatayo kaniak babaen kenni Yahweh a kas iti panangngaasik kadakayo, kaassianyonto met iti balay ti amak. Ikkandak iti natalged a pagilasinan
Now therefore, please swear to me by the LORD, since I have dealt kindly with you, that you also will deal kindly with my father's house, and give me a true token;
13 nga ispalenyonto ti biag ti amak, inak, kakabsatko a lallaki ken babbai, ken dagiti amin a pamiliada, ken isalakandakaminto manipud iti ipapatay.”
and that you will save alive my father, my mother, my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and will deliver our lives from death."
14 Kinuna dagiti lallaki kenkuana, “Para kenka ti biagmi, uray agingga iti patay! No saanmo a sarsaritaen ti maipapan iti rantami, maasi ken napudnokaminto ngarud kenka inton ited ni Yahweh daytoy a daga kadakami.”
The men said to her, "Our life for yours, even to death, if you do not talk about this business of ours; and it shall be, when the LORD gives us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with you."
15 Pinaulogna ngarud ida idiay tawa babaen iti tali. Ti balay a pagnanaedanna ket naikapet iti pader ti siudad.
Then she let them down by a cord through the window; for her house was on the side of the wall, and she lived on the wall.
16 Kinunana kadakuada, “Mapankayo kadagiti turturod ket aglemmengkayo ta no saan ket masarakandakayo dagiti mangkamkamat kadakayo. Aglemmengkayo sadiay iti tallo nga aldaw agingga a makasubli dagiti mangkamkamat. Ket mapankayo iti dalanyo.”
She said to them, "Go to the mountain, lest the pursuers find you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers have returned. Afterward, you may go your way."
17 Kinuna dagiti dua nga espia kenni Rahab, “Awanto iti pagrebbenganmi kadagiti impasapatam kadakami, no saanmo nga aramiden daytoy:
The men said to her, "We will be guiltless of this your oath which you have made us to swear.
18 Inton serkenmi ti daga, masapul a mangigalutka iti nalabaga a tali iti tawa a nangipaulogam kadakami, ket ummongem iti uneg ti balaymo ti ama ken inam, dagiti kakabsatmo ken amin a sangkabbalayan ti amam.
Look, when we come into the land, you shall bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which you did let us down by. You shall gather to yourself into the house your father, your mother, your brothers, and all your father's household.
19 Siasinoman a rumuar manipud kadagiti ruangan ti balaymo, addanto iti rabaw ti uloda iti darada ket awanto ti pakabasolanmi. Ngem no madangran ti siasinoman kadakayo iti uneg ti balay, ti darananto ket adda iti rabaw ti ulomi.
It shall be that whoever goes out of the doors of your house into the street, his blood will be on his head, and we will be guiltless. Whoever is with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand is on him.
20 Ngem no ibagam daytoy a rantami, awanto ngarud ti pagrebbenganmi a mangtungpal iti inkarimi.
But if you talk about this business of ours, then we shall be guiltless of your oath which you have made us to swear."
21 Simmungbat ni Rahab, “Mapasamak koma ti kinunayo.” Pinalubosanna ida ket pimmanawda. Ket nangigalut isuna iti nalabaga a tali iti tawa.
She said, "According to your words, so be it." She sent them away, and they departed. She tied the scarlet line in the window.
22 Pimmanawda ket napanda idiay turturod ket nagtalinaedda sadiay iti tallo nga aldaw agingga a nagsubli dagiti mangkamkamat kadakuada. Sinapsapul ida dagiti mangkamkamat kadagiti daldalan ngem awan ti nasarakanda.
They went, and came to the mountain, and stayed there three days, until the pursuers had returned. The pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but did not find them.
23 Nagsubli dagiti dua a lallaki ket nagballasiwda a nagsublida kenni Josue nga anak ni Nun, ket imbagada kenkuana amin a napasamak kadakuada.
Then the two men returned, descended from the mountain, passed over, and came to Joshua the son of Nun; and they told him all that had happened to them.
24 Ket kinunada kenni Josue, “Pudno nga inted ni Yahweh daytoy a daga kadatayo. Agrunrunaw amin nga agnanaed iti daydiay a daga gapu kadatayo.
They said to Joshua, "Truly the LORD has delivered into our hands all the land. Moreover, all the inhabitants of the land melt away before us."
