< Jozue 11 >
1 Tango Yabini, mokonzi ya Atsori, ayokaki makambo oyo, atindaki maloba epai ya Yobabi, mokonzi ya Madoni; epai ya mokonzi ya Shimironi, epai ya mokonzi ya Akishafi,
And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard [those things], that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,
2 epai ya bakonzi oyo bazalaki na etuka ya bangomba na nor, na etando ya Araba, na ngambo ya sude ya Kinereti, na mokili ya bangomba mikuse, na ngambo ya weste ya etando ya Dori;
And to the kings that [were] on the north of the mountains, and of the plains south of Chinneroth, and in the valley, and in the borders of Dor on the west,
3 epai ya bato ya Kanana oyo bazalaki na ngambo ya este mpe na ngambo ya weste; epai ya bato ya Amori, ya Iti, ya Perizi mpe ya Yebusi, oyo bazalaki kovanda na mokili ya bangomba; epai ya bato ya Evi, na se ya Erimoni, na mokili ya Mitsipa.
[And to] the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and [to] the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the mountains, and [to] the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpeh.
4 Babimaki elongo na mampinga na bango nyonso, mpe bato bazalaki ebele lokola zelo ya ebale elongo na motango monene ya bampunda mpe ya bashar.
And they went out, they and all their hosts with them, much people, even as the sand that [is] upon the sea shore in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.
5 Bakonzi yango nyonso basangisaki mampinga na bango esika moko mpe batongaki molako na bango pembeni ya mayi ya Meromi mpo na kobundisa Isalaele.
And when all these kings were met together, they came and pitched together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.
6 Yawe alobaki na Jozue: « Kobanga bango te, pamba te lobi, kaka na ngonga oyo, nakokaba bango nyonso na maboko ya Isalaele lokola bibembe. Okokata misisa ya makolo ya bampunda na bango mpe okotumba bashar na bango. »
And the LORD said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.
7 Boye Jozue elongo na mampinga na ye nyonso babimelaki bango na pwasa, na mayi ya Meromi mpe babundisaki bango;
So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.
8 bongo Yawe akabaki bango na maboko ya Isalaele. Balongaki bango mpe balandaki bango kino na Sidoni, engumba monene, kino na Misirefoti-Mayimi mpe kino na ngambo ya este ya lubwaku ya Mitsipe. Babomaki bango mpe batikaki ata moto moko te na bomoi.
And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephoth-maim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.
9 Jozue asalaki bango ndenge Yawe atindaki: akataki misisa ya makolo ya bampunda na bango mpe atumbaki bashar na bango.
And Joshua did unto them as the LORD bade him: he houghed their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.
10 Na tango wana, Jozue azongaki, abotolaki engumba Atsori mpe abomaki mokonzi na yango na mopanga. Atsori ezalaki mboka mokonzi ya mokili wana nyonso.
And Joshua at that time turned back, and took Hazor, and smote the king thereof with the sword: for Hazor beforetime was the head of all those kingdoms.
11 Babomaki moto nyonso oyo azalaki kuna na mopanga. Babebisaki penza bango nyonso, babikisaki ata ekelamu moko te ya pema mpe batumbaki engumba Atsori.
And they smote all the souls that [were] therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying [them: ] there was not any left to breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire.
12 Jozue abotolaki bingumba nyonso ya bakonzi wana mpe abomaki bakonzi na yango na mopanga. Abomaki bango nyonso kolanda ndenge Moyize, mowumbu na Yawe, atindaki.
And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, [and] he utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.
13 Kasi Isalaele atikalaki te kotumba bingumba oyo ezalaki na bangomba longola kaka Atsori oyo Jozue atumbaki.
But [as for] the cities that stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; [that] did Joshua burn.
14 Bana ya Isalaele bazwaki mpo na bango lokola bomengo ya bitumba: biloko nyonso ya engumba wana mpe bibwele na yango, kasi basilisaki koboma bato nyonso na mopanga, batikaki ata moto moko te na bomoi.
And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, neither left they any to breathe.
15 Jozue asalaki ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye na nzela ya mosali na ye Moyize, atikaki ata eloko moko te kati na makambo nyonso oyo Yawe atindaki Moyize.
As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.
16 Jozue abotolaki bamboka oyo nyonso: mokili ya bangomba, Negevi mobimba, mokili mobimba ya Gosheni, mokili ya se, etando ya Araba, ngomba ya Isalaele mpe bamboka na yango ya se,
So Joshua took all that land, the hills, and all the south country, and all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and the plain, and the mountain of Israel, and the valley of the same;
17 wuta na ngomba Alaki oyo ezalaki na ngambo ya Seiri kino na Bala-Gadi, na lubwaku ya Libani na ebandeli ya ngomba Erimoni. Abundisaki bakonzi na yango nyonso mpe abomaki bango.
[Even] from the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir, even unto Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and smote them, and slew them.
18 Jozue abundisaki bakonzi wana nyonso tango molayi.
Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
19 Longola kaka bato ya Evi oyo bazalaki kovanda na Gabaoni, engumba moko te etikalaki kosala boyokani ya kimia na bana ya Isalaele, oyo babotolaki yango nyonso na bitumba.
There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: all [other] they took in battle.
20 Nzokande, Yawe Ye moko azalaki koyeisa bango mitema mabanga mpo ete babundisa Isalaele, mpe mpo ete Isalaele asilisa koboma bango nyonso na mawa te, ndenge Yawe atindaki Moyize.
For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, [and] that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.
21 Na tango wana, Jozue akendeki koboma bato ya Anaki wuta na mokili ya bangomba: wuta na Ebron, na Debiri, na Anabi, na mokili nyonso ya bangomba ya Yuda mpe na mokili nyonso ya bangomba ya Isalaele. Jozue asilisaki koboma bango nyonso elongo na bingumba na bango.
And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.
22 Ata moto moko te ya Anaki atikalaki kati na mokili ya bana ya Isalaele. Batikalaki kaka na Gaza, kati na Gati, mpe na Asidodi.
There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.
23 Jozue abotolaki mokili yango nyonso ndenge Yawe atindaki na Moyize, apesaki yango na Isalaele lokola libula mpe akabolaki yango kolanda mabota ya Isalaele. Bongo mokili ekomaki na kimia mpe bitumba ezalaki lisusu te.
So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD said unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war.
