< Josue 6 >

1 Ita, nakarikep amin a pagserkan iti Jerico gapu iti armada ti Israel. Awan ti rimmuar ken awan ti simrek.
Now Jericho was closed as well as fortified, out of fear of the sons of Israel, and no one dared to depart or to enter.
2 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Josue, “Kitaem, inyawatkon kenka ti Jerico, ti ari ken dagiti nalalaing a soldado daytoy.
And the Lord said to Joshua: “Behold, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and all the strong men.
3 Masapul nga agmartsakayo iti aglawlaw ti siudad, maminsan a lawlawen dagiti amin a lallaki a mannakigubat ti siudad. Masapul nga aramidenyo daytoy iti las-ud iti innem nga aldaw.
Have all the warriors circle the city once each day; you shall do so for six days.
4 Masapul nga awiten dagiti pito a padi dagiti pito a trumpeta a naaramid manipud iti sara ti kalakian a karnero iti sangoanan ti lakasa. Iti maikapito nga aldaw, masapul nga agmartsakayo iti aglawlaw ti siudad iti maminpito a daras, ket masapul a pigsaan a pagunien dagiti padi dagiti trumpeta.
Then, on the seventh day, the priests shall take the seven trumpets, which are used on the jubilee, and they shall precede the ark of the covenant. And you shall circle the city seven times, and the priests shall sound the trumpets.
5 Ket masapul a pagunienda iti napigsa ken napaut ti sara ti kalakian a karnero, ket inton mangngegyo ti uni ti trumpeta, masapul nga agpukkaw dagiti amin a tattao iti napigsa, ket marbanto ti pader ti siudad. Masapul a rumaut dagiti soldado, agtarus ti tunggal maysa.”
And when the voice of the trumpet sounds longer and with interruptions, and it increases in your ears, then all the people shall cry out together with a very great shout, and the walls of the city shall fall to the foundation, and they shall enter it, each from a place opposite where they are standing.”
6 Inayaban ngarud ni Josue nga anak ni Nun dagiti padi ket kinunana kadakuada, “Alaenyo ti lakasa ti tulag, ket awiten dagiti pito a padi dagiti pito a trumpeta a naaramid manipud iti sara ti kalakian a karnero iti sangoanan ti lakasa ni Yahweh.”
Then Joshua, the son of Nun, called the priests, and he said to them, “Take the ark of the covenant, and let seven other priests take the seven trumpets of the jubilee, and advance before the ark of the Lord.”
7 Ket kinunana kadagiti tattao, “Umunakayo ket agmartsakayo iti aglawlaw ti siudad, ken umun-una a magna dagiti nakaigam a lallaki iti lakasa ni Yahweh.”
He also said to the people, “Go, and circle the city, armed, preceding the ark of the Lord.”
8 Kas iti kinuna ni Josue kadagiti tattao, inawit dagiti pito a padi ti pito a trumpeta a naaramid manipud iti sara ti kalakian a karnero iti sangoanan ni Yahweh. Bayat a sumungsungadda, pinagunida iti napigsa dagiti trumpeta. Simmaruno kadakuada ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh.
And when Joshua had finished his words, and the seven priests sounded the seven trumpets before the ark of the covenant of the Lord,
9 Magmagna dagiti nakaigam a lallaki iti sangoanan dagiti padi, ket pinagunida iti napigsa dagiti trumpetada, ngem nagna ngarud dagiti akinlikud a guardia iti likudan ti lakasa, ken agtultuloy a pagpagunien dagiti padi dagiti trumpetada.
and all the armed soldiers went ahead, the remainder of the common people followed the ark, and the sound of the trumpets grew louder everywhere.
10 Ngem binilin ni Josue dagiti tattao, a kunana, “Saankayo nga agpukkaw. Masapul nga awan timek a rummuar manipud kadagiti ngiwatyo agingga iti aldaw nga ibagak kadakayo nga agpukkawkayo. Isunto laeng ti masapul a panagpukkawyo.”
But Joshua had instructed the people, saying, “You shall not cry out, nor shall your voice be heard, and no word at all shall proceed from your mouth, until the day arrives on which I will say to you, ‘Cry out, and shout.’”
11 Pinairikosna ngarud ti lakasa ni Yahweh iti siudad iti maminsan a daras iti dayta nga aldaw. Kalpasanna, simrekda iti kampoda, ket nagtalinaedda idiay kampo iti rabii.
Thus, the ark of the Lord circled the city once each day, and returning to the camp, it remained there.
12 Ket nasapa a bimmangon ni Josue iti bigat, ket binagkat dagiti padi ti lakasa ni Yahweh.
And so, with Joshua, arising in the night, the priests took the ark of the Lord,
13 Dagiti padi a nakaawit iti pito a trumpeta a naaramid manipud iti sara ti kalakian a karnero iti sangoanan ti lakasa ni Yahweh, ken nagmartsada, pinagunida iti napigsa dagiti trumpeta. Magmagna dagiti nakaigam a soldado iti sangoananda. Ngem idi magmagna a sumarsaruno dagiti akinlikud a guardia iti lakasa ni Yahweh, agtultuloy a naguni iti napigsa dagiti trumpeta.
and seven of them took the seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee, and they preceded the ark of the Lord, walking and sounding the trumpets. And the armed men went before them, and the remainder of the common people followed the ark, and they were blaring the trumpets.
14 Nagmartsada iti aglawlaw ti siudad iti maminsan a daras iti maikadua nga aldaw ket nagsublida iti kampo. Inaramidda daytoy iti las-ud iti innem nga aldaw.
And they circled the city on the second day, once, and they returned to the camp. They did so for six days.
15 Iti maikapito nga aldaw a nasapada a bimmangon iti parbangon, iti daytoy a tiempo, nagmartsada iti maminpito iti aglawlaw ti siudad iti isu met laeng a wagas ti urnosda. Iti daytoy nga aldaw a nagmartsada iti aglawlaw ti siudad iti pito a daras.
Then, on the seventh day, rising at first light, they circled the city, just as had been ordered, seven times.
16 Iti maikapito nga aldaw idi pinaguni dagiti padi iti napigsa dagiti trumpeta, nga imbilin ni Josue kadagiti tattao, “Agpukkawkayo! Ta inyawaten kadakayo ni Yahweh ti siudad.
And at the seventh circling, when the priests sounded the trumpets, Joshua said to all of Israel: “Shout! For the Lord has delivered the city to you.
17 Mailasinto a para kenni Yahweh ti siudad ken dagiti amin nga adda iti daytoy tapno madadael. Ni laeng Rahab a balangkantis ti agbiag- isuna ken dagiti amin a kaduana iti balayna- gapu ta inlemmengna dagiti lallaki nga imbaontayo.
And let this city be anathema, with all the things that are within it, before the Lord. May only Rahab the harlot live, with all who are with her in the house. For she hid the messengers whom we sent.
18 Ngem no maipapan kadakayo, liklikanyo ti mangala kadagiti banbanag a nailasin a madadael, ket no malpasyo a mamarkaan dagitoy a madadael, saankayo ngarud a mangala iti aniaman kadagitoy. No aramidenyo daytoy, pagbalinenyonto ti kampo ti Israel a maysa a banag a masapul a madadael ket mangiyegkayonto iti riribuk iti daytoy.
But you must be careful that you do not touch any of those things, as you have been instructed, for then you would be guilty of transgression, and all the camp of Israel would be under sin and would be troubled.
19 Maidaton kenni Yahweh iti amin a pirak, balitok, ken amin a banbanag a naaramid iti tanso ken landok. Masapul a maipan dagitoy iti pagiduldulinan ti gameng ni Yahweh.”
But whatever gold and silver there will be, and vessels of brass or of iron, let these be consecrated to the Lord and be stored in his treasuries.”
20 Nagpukkaw ngarud dagiti tattao, ket pinagunida iti napigsa dagiti trumpeta. Ket idi nangngeg dagiti tattao ti uni ti trumpeta, nagpukkawda iti nakapigpigsa, ket narba ti pader isu a nakastrek dagiti tattao iti siudad, nagtartarus ti tunggal maysa. Ket sinakupda ti siudad.
Therefore, with all the people shouting, and the trumpets blaring, after the voice and the sound increased in the ears of the multitude, the walls promptly fell to ruin. And each one climbed up at the place which was opposite where he was. And they seized the city.
21 Naan-anay a dinadaelda dagiti amin nga adda iti siudad babaen iti tadem ti kampilan- lalaki ken babai, ubing ken nataengan, dagiti baka, karnero ken dagiti asno.
And they put to death all who were in it, from man even to woman, from infant even to elder. Likewise, the oxen and sheep and donkeys, they struck down with the edge of the sword.
22 Ket kinuna ni Josue kadagiti dua a nangsiim iti daga, “Mapankayo iti balay ti balangkantis. Iruaryo ti babai ken dagiti amin a kaduana, a kas insapatayo kenkuana.”
But Joshua said to the two men who had been sent to explore, “Enter the house of the harlot woman, and bring her out, and all the things that are hers, just as you assured her by oath.”
23 Napan ngarud dagiti agtutubo a lallaki nga espia ket inruarda ni Rahab. Inruarda ti amana, ina, dagiti kakabsatna, ken dagiti amin a kabagianna a kaduana. Impanda ida iti maysa a lugar iti ruar ti kampo ti Israel.
And the youths entered, and they led out Rahab, and her parents, also her brothers, and all her goods and kindred, and they caused them to dwell outside the camp.
24 Ket pinuoranda ti siudad ken amin nga adda iti daytoy. Dagiti laeng pirak, balitok, ken dagiti pagkargaan a tanso ken landok ti naikabil iti pagiduldulinan iti gameng iti balay ni Yahweh.
Then they set fire to the city and all the things that were within it, except the gold and silver, and the vessels of brass or of iron, which they consecrated into the treasury of the Lord.
25 Ngem pinalubosan ni Josue nga agbiag ni Rahab a balangkantis, ti sangkabalayan ti amana, ken dagiti amin a kaduana. Nagnaed isuna iti Israel agingga iti daytoy nga aldaw gapu ta inlemmengna dagiti lallaki nga imbaon ni Josue nga agsiim idiay Jerico.
Yet truly, Joshua caused Rahab the harlot, and her father’s household, and all she had, to survive. And they lived in the midst of Israel, even to the present day. For she hid the messengers, whom he had sent to explore Jericho. At that time, Joshua made an invocation, saying:
26 Ket binilin ida ni Josue iti dayta a tiempo babaen iti sapata, ket kinunana, “Mailunod iti imatang ni Yahweh ti tao a mangbangon manen iti daytoy a siudad, a Jerico. Kas subad ti inauna nga anakna a lalaki, ibangonnanto ti pundasion, ken kas subad iti inaudi nga anakna a lalaki, ipatakdernanto dagiti ruangan daytoy.”
“Cursed before the Lord is the man who will raise up and rebuild the city of Jericho! With his firstborn, may he lay its foundation, and with the last of his children, may he set up its gates.”
27 Adda ngarud ni Yahweh kenni Josue, ket nagwaras ti kinalatakna iti entero a daga.
And so the Lord was with Joshua, and his name was made known throughout all the land.
