Iosue 7
1 filii autem Israhel praevaricati sunt mandatum et usurpaverunt de anathemate nam Achan filius Charmi filii Zabdi filii Zare de tribu Iuda tulit aliquid de anathemate iratusque est Dominus contra filios Israhel
But the children of Israel committed a trespass in the devoted things; for Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took some of the devoted things. Therefore the LORD's anger burned against the children of Israel.
2 cumque mitteret Iosue de Hiericho viros contra Ahi quae est iuxta Bethaven ad orientalem plagam oppidi Bethel dixit eis ascendite et explorate terram qui praecepta conplentes exploraverunt Ahi
Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is beside Beth Aven, on the east side of Bethel, and spoke to them, saying, "Go up and spy out the land." The men went up and spied out Ai.
3 et reversi dixerunt ei non ascendat omnis populus sed duo vel tria milia virorum pergant et deleant civitatem quare omnis populus frustra vexatur contra hostes paucissimos
They returned to Joshua, and said to him, "Do not let all the people go up; but let about two or three thousand men go up and strike Ai. Do not make all the people to toil there, for there are only a few of them."
4 ascenderunt ergo tria milia pugnatores qui statim terga vertentes
So about three thousand men of the people went up there, and they fled before the men of Ai.
5 percussi sunt a viris urbis Ahi et corruerunt ex eis triginta et sex homines persecutique sunt eos adversarii de porta usque Sabarim et ceciderunt per prona fugientes pertimuitque cor populi et instar aquae liquefactum est
The men of Ai struck about thirty-six men of them, and they chased them from before the gate even to the Shebarim, and struck them at the descent. The hearts of the people melted, and became like water.
6 Iosue vero scidit vestimenta sua et cecidit pronus in terram coram arca Domini usque ad vesperum tam ipse quam omnes senes Israhel miseruntque pulverem super capita sua
Joshua tore his clothes, and fell to the earth on his face before the ark of the LORD until the evening, he and the elders of Israel; and they put dust on their heads.
7 et dixit Iosue heu Domine Deus quid voluisti transducere populum istum Iordanem fluvium ut traderes nos in manus Amorrei et perderes utinam ut coepimus mansissemus trans Iordanem
Joshua said, "Alas, Lord GOD, why have you brought this people over the Jordan at all, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to cause us to perish? I wish that we had been content and lived beyond the Jordan.
8 mi Domine Deus quid dicam videns Israhelem hostibus suis terga vertentem
Oh, Lord, what shall I say, after that Israel has turned their backs before their enemies.
9 audient Chananei et omnes habitatores terrae ac pariter conglobati circumdabunt nos atque delebunt nomen nostrum de terra et quid facies magno nomini tuo
For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it, and will surround us, and cut off our name from the earth. What will you do for your great name?"
10 dixitque Dominus ad Iosue surge cur iaces pronus in terra
The LORD said to Joshua, "Get up. Why are you fallen on your face like that?
11 peccavit Israhel et praevaricatus est pactum meum tuleruntque de anathemate et furati sunt atque mentiti et absconderunt inter vasa sua
Israel has sinned, and they have even transgressed my covenant which I commanded them. And they have even taken of the devoted things, and have also stolen, and also deceived. They have even put it among their own stuff.
12 nec poterit Israhel stare ante hostes suos eosque fugiet quia pollutus est anathemate non ero ultra vobiscum donec conteratis eum qui huius sceleris reus est
Therefore the children of Israel can't stand before their enemies. They turn their backs before their enemies, because they have become devoted for destruction. I will not be with you any more, unless you destroy the devoted things from among you.
13 surge sanctifica populum et dic eis sanctificamini in crastinum haec enim dicit Dominus Deus Israhel anathema in medio tui est Israhel non poteris stare coram hostibus tuis donec deleatur ex te qui hoc contaminatus est scelere
Get up. Sanctify the people, and say, 'Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, for the LORD, the God of Israel, says, "There is a devoted thing in the midst of you, Israel. You cannot stand before your enemies until you take away the devoted thing from among you."
14 accedetisque mane singuli per tribus vestras et quamcumque tribum sors invenerit accedet per cognationes suas et cognatio per domos domusque per viros
In the morning therefore you shall be brought near by your tribes. It shall be that the tribe which the LORD selects shall come near by families. The family which the LORD selects shall come near by households. The household which the LORD selects shall come near man by man.
15 et quicumque ille in hoc facinore fuerit deprehensus conburetur igni cum omni substantia sua quoniam praevaricatus est pactum Domini et fecit nefas in Israhel
It shall be, that he who is taken with the devoted thing shall be burnt with fire, he and all that he has, because he has transgressed the covenant of the LORD, and because he has done a disgraceful thing in Israel.'"
16 surgens itaque Iosue mane adplicavit Israhel per tribus suas et inventa est tribus Iuda
So Joshua rose up early in the morning and brought Israel near by their tribes. The tribe of Judah was selected.
17 quae cum iuxta familias suas esset oblata inventa est familia Zarai illam quoque per viros offerens repperit Zabdi
He brought near the families of Judah; and he selected the family of the Zerahites. He brought near the family of the Zerahites man by man, and Zabdi was selected.
18 cuius domum in singulos dividens viros invenit Achan filium Charmi filii Zabdi filii Zare de tribu Iuda
He brought near his household man by man, and Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was selected.
19 et ait ad Achan fili mi da gloriam Domino Deo Israhel et confitere atque indica mihi quid feceris ne abscondas
Joshua said to Achan, "My son, please give glory to the LORD, the God of Israel, and make confession to him. Tell me now what you have done. Do not hide it from me."
20 responditque Achan Iosue et dixit ei vere ego peccavi Domino Deo Israhel et sic et sic feci
Achan answered Joshua, and said, "I have truly sinned against the LORD, the God of Israel, and this is what I have done.
21 vidi enim inter spolia pallium coccineum valde bonum et ducentos siclos argenti regulamque auream quinquaginta siclorum et concupiscens abstuli et abscondi in terra contra medium tabernaculi mei argentumque fossa humo operui
When I saw among the spoil a beautiful garment from Shinar, two hundred shekels of silver, and a bar of gold weighing fifty shekels, then I coveted them and took them. Look, they are hidden in the ground in the middle of my tent, with the silver under it."
22 misit ergo Iosue ministros qui currentes ad tabernaculum illius reppererunt cuncta abscondita in eodem loco et argentum simul
So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent. Look, it was hidden in his tent, with the silver under it.
23 auferentesque de tentorio tulerunt ea ad Iosue et ad omnes filios Israhel proieceruntque ante Dominum
They took them from the middle of the tent, and brought them to Joshua and to all the children of Israel. They laid them down before the LORD.
24 tollens itaque Iosue Achan filium Zare argentumque et pallium et auream regulam filiosque eius et filias boves et asinos et oves ipsumque tabernaculum et cunctam supellectilem et omnis Israhel cum eo duxerunt eos ad vallem Achor
Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, the silver, the robe, the wedge of gold, his sons, his daughters, his cattle, his donkeys, his sheep, his tent, and all that he had; and they brought them up to the Valley of Achor.
25 ubi dixit Iosue quia turbasti nos exturbet te Dominus in die hac lapidavitque eum omnis Israhel et cuncta quae illius erant igne consumpta sunt
Joshua said, "Why have you troubled us? The LORD will trouble you this day." All Israel stoned him with stones, and they burned them with fire and stoned them with stones.
26 congregaverunt quoque super eum acervum magnum lapidum qui permanet usque in praesentem diem et aversus est furor Domini ab eis vocatumque est nomen loci illius vallis Achor usque hodie
They raised over him a great heap of stones that remains to this day. The LORD turned from the fierceness of his anger. Therefore the name of that place was called "The Valley of Achor" to this day.
