< 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 when Jabis the king of Asor heard, he sent to Jobab king of Maron, and to the king of Symoon, and to the king of Aziph,
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 who were by the great Sidon, to the hill country and to Araba opposite Keneroth, and to the plain, and to Phenaeddor,
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 Chananites on the coast eastward, and to the Amorites on the coast, and the Chettites, and the Pherezites, and the Jebusites in the mountain, and the Evites, and those dwelling under [mount] Aermon in the land Massyma.
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 and their kings with them went forth, as the sand of the sea in multitude, and horses, and very many chariots.
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 all the kings assembled in person, and came to the same place, and encamped at the waters of Maron to war with 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 to Joshua, Be not afraid of them, for to-morrow [at] this time I will put them to flight before Israel: you shall 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;
And Joshua and all the men of war came upon them at the water of Maron suddenly; and they attacked them in the hill country.
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 power of Israel; and they struck them and pursued them to great Sidon, and to Maseron, and to the plains of Massoch eastward; and they destroyed them till there was not one of them left that survived.
9 Jozue asalaki bango ndenge Yawe atindaki: akataki misisa ya makolo ya bampunda na bango mpe atumbaki bashar na bango.
And Joshua did to them, as the Lord commanded him: he houghed their horses, and burned 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 returned at that time, and took Asor and her king; now Asor in former time was the chief of these 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 killed with the sword all that breathed in it, and utterly destroyed them all, and there was no living thing left in it; and they burnt Asor 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 Joshua took all the cities of the kingdoms, and their kings, and killed them with the edge of the sword; and utterly killed 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 all the walled cities Israel burnt not; but Israel burnt Asor only.
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 the children of Israel took all its spoils to themselves; and they killed all the men with the edge of the sword, until he destroyed them; they left not one of them breathing.
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 his servant Moses, even so Moses commanded Joshua; and so Joshua did, he transgressed no precept of all that Moses commanded him.
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,
And Joshua took all the hill country, and all the land of Nageb, and all the land of Gosom, and the plain country, and that toward the west, and the mountain of Israel and the low country by the mountain;
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.
from the mountain of Chelcha, and that which goes up to Seir, and as far as Balagad, and the plains of Libanus, under mount Aermon; and he took all their kings, and destroyed, and killed them.
18 Jozue abundisaki bakonzi wana nyonso tango molayi.
And for many days Joshua waged war with these 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.
And there was no city which Israel took not; they took all in war.
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 to go forth to war against Israel, that they might be utterly destroyed, that mercy should not be granted to them, but that they should be utterly destroyed, as the Lord said to 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 Joshua came at that time, and utterly destroyed the Enakim out of the hill country, from Chebron and from Dabir, and from Anaboth, and from all the race of Israel, and from all the mountain of Juda with their cities; and Joshua utterly destroyed them.
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 not [any one] left of the Enakim by the children of Israel, only there was left of them in Gaza, and in Gath, and in Aseldo.
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.
And Joshua took all the land, as the Lord commanded Moses; and Joshua gave them for an inheritance to Israel by division according to their tribes; and the land ceased from war.
