Zosua 9

1 Hanki Jodani timofo kantu zage fre kaziga agonaregama nemaniza kini vahe'ma, agonamofo asoparega nemaniza kini vahe'ma, agupofima nemaniza kini vahe'ma, Mediterenia ra hagerimofo ankinaregati vuno anagamu noti kaziga Lebanoni mopare nemaniza kini vahe'ma, Hiti vahe'ma Amori vahe'ma, Kenani vahe'ma, Peresi vahe'ma, Hivi vahe'ma Jebusi kini vahe'mo'zama antahi'zama Josua'ma Jeriko vahe'ene Ai kumate vahe'ma ha'ma huzamagaterea agenkema nentahi'za,

Now on hearing the news of these things, all the kings on the west side of Jordan, in the hill-country and the lowlands and by the Great Sea in front of Lebanon, the Hittites and the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites,

2 ana maka'mo'za eri mago hu'za Josuane Israeli vahera ha' huzmante'naku hu'naze.

Came together with one purpose, to make war against Joshua and Israel.

3 Hianagi Gibioni vahe'mo'za Josuama Jerikone Ai rankuma'enema zamazeri havizama hu'nea zamofo agenkema nentahi'za,

And the men of Gibeon, hearing what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai,

4 mago'a vene'ne nagara huzmantage'za haviza hu'za afete moparegati Israeli vahete naneke eri'za e' vahekna hu'za e'naze. Ana vahe'mo'za atafareno tagatoma hu'nea meme akrute waini tintafempi rehati rehati hu'za waini tina afineri'za, atafama re'nea kuzamia donki afumofo agumpi nente'za,

Acting with deceit, got food together as if for a long journey; and took old food-bags for their asses, and old and cracked wine-skins kept together with cord;

5 tagoto hu'nea zamaga ano rehati rehati hu'za nentani'za, atafare'nea kukena nentani'za, hagege huno tontore'nea breti eri'za vu'naze.

And put old stitched-up shoes on their feet, and old clothing on their backs; and all the food they had with them was dry and broken up.

6 Anante kuma'ma eme ante'za Gilgalima mani'nazare Josuante e'za, agri'ene Israeli vahera amanage hu'za eme zmasami'naze, tagra afete moparegati e'nonku tamagrane mago tarimpa huta manisuna zamofo kea huvempa huranteho.

And they came to Joshua to the tent-circle at Gilgal, and said to him and to the men of Israel, We have come from a far country: so now make an agreement with us.

7 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'za ana Hivi vahe'mokizmia amanage hu'za zamasami'naze, Na'a agafare tamagranena tarimpa fru huta manisunku, huvempa huramantegahune? Na'ankure tamagra afeti vahera omani'negahaze.

And the men of Israel said to the Hivites, It may be that you are living among us; how then may we make an agreement with you?

8 Hianagi Hivi vahe'mo'za Josuana asami'za, kagri eri'za vahe mani'none hazageno, Josua'a zamantahigeno, tamagra izagata, igati e'naze?

And they said to Joshua, We are your servants. Then Joshua said to them, Who are you and where do you come from?

9 Hige'za Josuana kenona'a hunte'za, kagri eri'za vahe'mota afete mopareti e'none. Na'ankure Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamofo hihamu'amofo agi agenkemo'ma marerigeno, ana maka zama Isipi vahete'ma tro'ma nehuno,

And they said to him, Your servants have come from a very far country, because of the name of the Lord your God: for the story of his great name, and of all he did in Egypt has come to our ears,

10 tare Amori kini ne'ene Jodani timofo kantu kaziga nemania kini nete'ma tro'ma hu'nea zane, Hesboni kini ne' Sihoninte tro hu'nea zane, Basani kini ne' Ogi'ma Astoroti nemania nete'ma tro'ma hu'nea zamofo agenkea antahi'none.

And what he did to the two kings of the Amorites east of Jordan, to Sihon, king of Heshbon, and to Og, king of Bashan, at Ashtaroth.

11 Hagi kva vaheti'mozane mopatifi'ma ana maka nemaniza vahe'mo'za hurante'za, mago'a ne'zama erinetama vanaza ne'zana tro hu'neta, nevuta ana vahe'ma ome nezamagenutma amanage huta zamasamiho hu'naze, tagra tamagri eri'za vahe mani'nonanki, trimpa fru huta manisunku tamagra huvempa kea huranteho.

So the responsible men and all the people of our country said to us, Take food with you for the journey and go to them, and say to them, We are your servants: so now make an agreement with us.

12 Amama erita e'nona bretiramina keho, kantega ne-eta nesunazane huta kumati'ma atreta ne-eta ana zupa amuho hu'negeta erita e'none. Hianagi menina keho, hago hagege huno ankra kruhe'ne.

This bread which we have with us for our food, we took warm and new from our houses when starting on our journey to you; but now see, it has become dry and broken up.

13 Hanki mememofo akruteti tromahu tintafena keho, kasefa me'negeta waini tina afirita e'nonane. Hianagi menina keho, hago ampamu hu'ne. Ana nehigeno kukenane taga anonema antani'nona zamo'enena za'za kama e'nona zamo higeno tagatotagatu hu'ne.

And these wine-skins were new when we put the wine in them, and now they are cracked as you see; and our clothing and our shoes have become old because of our very long journey here.

14 Anante Israeli vahe'mo'za ana nezantamina eri'za ke'nazanagi, Ra Anumzamofona antahige'za knare antahi'zana e'ori'naze.

And the men took some of their food, without requesting directions from the Lord.

15 Hanki Josua'a ana vahera zamazeri fru nehuno, ozamahe zamatresage'za zamagranema mago zamarimpa hu'za manisaza zanku huvempa hunezmantege'za, Israeli kva vahe'mo'zanena hu'za amama huhagerafuna huvempa kea eri otregahune hu'naze.

So Joshua made peace with them, and made an agreement with them that they were not to be put to death: and the chiefs of the people took an oath to them.

16 Ana huvempa kema Israeli vahe'mo'za huzamantetageno'a tagufa zagegna evutege'za, henkama antahi'zana afeteti vahera zamagra ome'nazanki, tva'ozamire nemaniza vahe e'naze.

Now three days after, when they had made this agreement with them, they had word that these men were their neighbours, living near them.

17 Hige'za Israeli vahe'mo'za oti'za tagufa zagegnafi kana vu'za ana vahe'mokizmi kumatmintera uhanati'naze. Ana ran kumatmina, Gibionima, Kefirama, Birotima, Kiriati Jearimi kumapinti vahere.

And the children of Israel went forward on their journey, and on the third day came to their towns. Now their towns were Gibeon and Chephirah and Beeroth and Kiriath-jearim.

18 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'za hara huozamante'naze. Na'ankure Israeli kva vahe'mo'za, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe'mokizmi Anumzamofo avufi mago zamarimpa hu'za manisaza zamofo kema huvempama hu'naza kegu antahi'za ozamahe'naze. Ana hazage'za maka Israeli vahe'mo'za kva vahe'zamigura mago zamarimpa huozamante'za ke hakare hu'naze.

And the children of Israel did not put them to death, because the chiefs of the people had taken an oath to them by the Lord, the God of Israel. And all the people made an outcry against the chiefs.

19 Hianagi mika Israeli kva vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za zamasami'naze, Mago tarimpama huta manigahune huta huvempa kea, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe'mota Anumzamofo avufi huvempa hu'nonanki menina zamagritera mago'zana osugahune.

But all the chiefs said to the people, We have taken an oath to them by the Lord, the God of Israel, and so we may not put our hands on them.

20 Hanki tagra amanahu huzmantegahune, ozamahe zamatresunke'za manigahaze. Na'ankure tagrama huvempa huzmante'nona kema eri atresunana Anumzamo'a tazeri haviza hugahie.

This is what we will do to them: we will not put them to death, for fear that wrath may come on us because of our oath to them.

21 Hianagi kva vahe'mo'za Israeli vahera mago'ene zamasami'za amanage hu'naze, Zamatrenke'za mani'ne'za Israeli vahera tevene tine kato huzami vahe maniho. Hagi kva vahe'mo'zama huvempama huzmante'naza kante ante'za ozamahe zamatrage'za mani'naze.

Keep them living, and let them be servants, cutting wood and getting water for all the people. And all the people did as the chiefs had said to them.

22 Anante Josua'a Gibioni vahera kehige'za azageno amanage huno zamasami'ne, tamagra na'ante tagrira reravatga hutma, tvaontirema nemaniza naga'mota, afete kotegati e'none hutma hu'naze?

Then Joshua sent for them, and said to them, Why have you been false to us, saying, We are very far from you, when you are living among us?

23 Tamagra havige hu'nagu Anumzamo'a tamazeri haviza hugahie. Ana hanigetma maka zupa nagri Anumzamofo mono nompi kazokzo eri'za vahe mani'neta, tinteve hurami vava hugahaze.

Now because of this you are cursed, and you will for ever be our servants, cutting wood and getting water for the house of my God.

24 Hanki Gibioni vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za Josuana asami'naze, tagrama antahunama Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo eri'za ne'a Mosesena asami'no, ama ana mopa miko zamigahuanki ana mopafima ufresutma anampima mani'naza vahera maka zamahe vagareho huno hu'negu, tamagrikura tusi koro nehuta ana havigea hu'none.

And, answering Joshua, they said, Because it came to the ears of your servants that the Lord your God had given orders to his servant Moses to give you all this land, and to send destruction on all the people living in it, because of you; so, fearing greatly for our lives because of you, we have done this.

25 Ana hu'nonanagi menina kagri kzampi mani'nonku, nazano hurante'naku'ma hanana zana amne huranto.

And now we are in your hands: do to us whatever seems good and right to you.

26 Hanki Josua'a Gibioni vahera zamaza hige'za, Israeli naga'mo'za ozamahe zamatre'naze.

So he kept them safe from the children of Israel, and did not let them be put to death.

27 Hianagi Josua'a ana Gibioni vahera huzmanteno menintetima agafama hanazana, Israeli vahe'mokizmi tintevema katoma huzmi vahe nemanita, inantego Israeli vahe'ma vanaregama Ra Anumzamo'ma huhamprino amare monora hihoma hanire'ene tintevea huzamigahaze. Hige'za Gibioni vahe'mo'za ana zamavu'zamavara meninena hu'za neaze. (2 Sam 21).

And that day Joshua made them servants, cutting wood and getting water for the people and for the altar of the Lord, in the place marked out by him, to this day.
