Joshua 6
1 In pacl se inge mutunpot Jericho kaul na ke sripen mwet Israel inge. Wangin mwet oatui, ac wangin mwet utyak nu we.
Now Jericho was tightly shut up because of the children of Israel. No one went out, and no one came in.
2 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Liye, nga ac sot acn Jericho nu inpoum, wi pacna tokosra ac mwet mweun watwen lun acn we.
The LORD said to Joshua, "Look, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the mighty men of valor.
3 Kom ac mwet mweun lom in fahsr rauneak acn we pacl se ke len se. Oru ouinge ke len onkosr.
All your men of war shall march around the city, going around the city once. You shall do this six days.
4 Sap mwet tol itkosr in fahsr meet liki Tuptup in Wuleang ac us mwe ukuk orekla ke koen kosro. Ke len se akitkosr kowos fahsr rauni pacl itkosr, ac mwet tol elos in uk mwe ukuk natulos an.
Seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark. On the seventh day, you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets.
5 Kowos fin lohng pacl se elos ukya mwe ukuk natulos ke sie pusra na loes, na mwet nukewa in sala ke sie pusra lulap, na pot uh ac fah raki, ac mwet nukewa fah utyak nu in siti sac.”
It shall be that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall go up every man straight before him."
6 Ouinge Joshua el pangoneni mwet tol uh ac fahk nu selos, “Srukak Tuptup in Wuleang, ac itkosr mwet tol an in fahsr meet liki ac us mwe ukuk natulos.”
Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them, "Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD."
7 Na el fahk nu sin mwet ah, “Fahsr, rauni siti an, ac ekasr mwet mweun an in fahsr meet liki Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD.”
And he said to the people, "Advance. March around the city, and let the armed men pass on before the LORD's ark."
8 Ke Joshua el fahkla ma inge nu sin mwet ah, na mwet tol itkosr ma utuk mwe ukuk ah fahsryak ac uk mwe ukuk natulos, ac Tuptup in Wuleang fahsr tokolos.
It was so, that when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the LORD advanced, and blew the trumpets; and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.
9 Kutu sin mwet mweun fahsr meet liki mwet tol su uk mwe ukuk natulos uh, ac mwet mweun lula ah elos fahsr tukun Tuptup sac. In pacl se inge mwe ukuk ah nuna ukuk na.
The armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets, and the ark went after them. The trumpets sounded as they went.
10 Tusruktu Joshua el fahkang nu sin mwet uh, “Nimet kowos sasa ku wowon. Nimet kaskas nwe ke na len se nga fahk mu kowos in sala. In pacl sacn na kowos tufah sala!”
Joshua commanded the people, saying, "You shall not shout, nor let your voice be heard, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I tell you to shout. Then you shall shout."
11 Na el sap Tuptup in Wuleang in utuk rauneak siti ah ke pacl se. Na mwet uh folokla nu in lohm nuknuk selos ac mongla ke fong sac.
So he caused the ark of the LORD to go around the city, going about it once. Then they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
12 Joshua el toang ngutalik ke len se tok ah, ac mwet tol elos srukak Tuptup in Wuleang sac.
Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the LORD.
13 Mwet tol itkosr ma us mwe ukuk itkosr ah fahsryak ac fahsr meet liki Tuptup sac ac uk mwe ukuk natulos. Kutu mwet mweun ah fahsr meet liki Tuptup sac ac kutu toko. In pacl se inge, mwe ukuk ah na ukuk na.
The seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually, and blew the trumpets: and the armed men went before them. The rear guard came after the ark of the LORD. The trumpets sounded as they went.
14 Ouinge ke len se akluo ah elos rauneak pac siti sac pacl se, na elos folokla nu lohm nuknuk selos. Elos oru na ouinge ke len onkosr.
The second day they marched around the city once, and returned into the camp. They did this six days.
15 Len se akitkosr ah elos ngutalik ke srakna toang ac fahsr rauni siti sac pacl itkosr oana ke elos oru meet ah, sayen ke len se akitkosr elos raun pacl itkosr.
It happened on the seventh day, that they rose early at the dawning of the day, and marched around the city in the same way seven times. Only on this day they marched around the city seven times.
16 Ke mwet tol elos ukya mwe ukuk ah ke raun se akitkosr ah, Joshua el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Sala, tuh LEUM GOD El asot nu suwos siti se inge!
It happened at the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, "Shout, for the LORD has given you the city.
17 Siti sac ac ma nukewa loac ac fah kunausyukla. Rahab, mutan kosro sac, ac mwet nukewa in lohm sel elos mukena ac fah tia anwuki mweyen el tuh okanla mwet kalngeyuk su kut supwala nu we ah.
The city shall be devoted, even it and all that is in it, to the LORD. Only Rahab the prostitute shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
18 Tusruk karinginkowosyang tuh kowos in tia srukak kutena ma fal in kunausyukla. Kowos fin srukak, na kowos ac fah sang mwata nu fin mwet Israel nukewa.
But as for you, only keep yourselves from the devoted thing, so as not to covet and take of the devoted thing and make the camp of Israel accursed, and bring trouble on it.
19 Gold ac silver, ac ma orek ke osra bronze ac iron nukewa ac fah srisrila nu sin LEUM GOD. Ma inge fah utukla nu ke nien filma lun LEUM GOD.”
But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron, are holy to the LORD. They shall come into the LORD's treasury."
20 Pacl se ma mwe ukuk uh kasla mwet nukewa sala, ac ke pusren ukuk ah kasla ac mwet uh sala, na pot uh mukukla; oru mwet nukewa yuyang ac eisla siti sac.
So the people shouted, and the priests blew the trumpets. It happened, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
21 Elos onela ma nukewa ke cutlass — mukul, mutan, tulik, mwet matu ac kain in kosro nukewa in siti sac.
They utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, both young and old, and ox, and sheep, and donkey, with the edge of the sword.
22 Joshua el fahk nu sin mwet luo ma tuh som kalngeyuk in siti sac, “Fahla nu in lohm sin mutan kosro sac ac usalu, wi mwet nukewa in lohm sel an, in fal nu ke wulela lomtal nu sel.”
And Joshua said to the two young men who had spied out the land, "Go into the prostitute's house, and bring out from there the woman and all that she has, as you swore to her."
23 Ouinge, mwet luo ah som ac usalu Rahab, papa tumal, nina kial, tamulel wial ac mwet nukewa in lohm sel. Elos use nufon mwet in sou lal, ac oakelosi in sie acn sisken acn mwet Israel elos muta we.
The young men who were spies went in, and brought out Rahab with her father, her mother, her brothers, and all that she had. They also brought out all her relatives, and they set them outside of the camp of Israel.
24 Na elos esukak siti sac nufon ac ma nukewa ma oan loac. Tusruktu gold ac silver ac ma orekla ke bronze ac iron nukewa utukla nu nien filma lun LEUM GOD.
They burnt the city with fire, and all that was in it. Only they put the silver, the gold, and the vessels of bronze and of iron into the treasury of the LORD's house.
25 Tusruktu Joshua el molella Rahab, mutan kosro sac, wi sou lal nukewa, mweyen Rahab el tuh okanla mwet kalngeyuk luo ah; na sou sac elos srakna muta inmasrlon mwet Israel nwe misenge.
But Rahab the prostitute, her father's household, and all that she had, Joshua saved alive. She lived in the midst of Israel to this day, because she hid the messengers, whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
26 Ke pacl sac Joshua el orala sie fulahk ac fahk, “Kutena mwet fin srike in sifil musaeak siti Jericho, el ac fah selngawiyuk sin LEUM GOD. Mwet se fin sifil oakiya pwelung lun siti uh, Wen se oemeet natul ac fah misa. Mwet se fin musai mutunpot lun siti uh, Wen se oetok natul ac fah misa.”
Joshua commanded them with an oath at that time, saying, "Cursed be the man before the LORD, who rises up and builds this city Jericho. With the loss of his firstborn shall he lay its foundation, and with the loss of his youngest son shall he set up its gates."
27 Ouinge LEUM GOD El welul Joshua, ac pweng kacl fahsrelik nu fin facl sac nufon.
So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.
