Jozue 7
1 Bato ya Isalaele babebisaki ekila ya Yawe. Akana, mwana mobali ya Karimi, mwana mobali ya Zabidi, mwana mobali ya Zera, moto ya libota ya Yuda, akamataki biloko oyo Yawe apekisaki. Bongo, kanda ya Yawe epelaki likolo ya bana ya Isalaele.
And they acted unfaithfully [the] people of Israel unfaithfulness in the devoted thing[s] and he took Achan [the] son of Carmi [the] son of Zabdi [the] son of Zerah of [the] tribe of Judah some of the devoted thing[s] and it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on [the] people of Israel.
2 Wuta na Jeriko, Jozue atindaki bato kokende na engumba Ayi oyo ezalaki pene ya Beti-Aveni, na ngambo ya este ya Beteli. Alobaki na bango: « Bokende kononga mokili wana. » Bato yango bakendeki mpe banongaki Ayi.
And he sent Joshua men from Jericho Ai which [is] beside Beth Aven from [the] east of Beth-el and he said to them saying go up and spy out the land and they went up the men and they spied out Ai.
3 Tango bazongaki epai ya Jozue, balobaki na ye: « Ezali penza na tina te ete bato nyonso bakende kobundisa Ayi. Tinda kaka bato nkoto mibale to nkoto misato mpo na kobotola yango. Komonisa bato nyonso pasi te, pamba te engumba yango ezali kaka na bato moke. »
And they returned to Joshua and they said to him may not it go up all the people about two thousand man or about three thousand man let them go up and they may attack Ai may not you make go wearily there towards all the people for [are] few they.
4 Boye, bato pene nkoto misato bakendeki, kasi bakimaki liboso ya bato ya Ayi.
And they went up some of the people there about three thousand man and they fled before [the] men of Ai.
5 Bato ya Ayi babomaki bato pene tuku misato na motoba na molongo ya Isalaele. Balandaki bango kino koleka ekuke ya engumba Shebarimi mpe babomaki bango na kokita ya ngomba. Mpo na yango, mitema ya bana ya Isalaele elembaki mpe bakomaki lokola mayi oyo ezali kotiola.
And they struck down of them [the] men of Ai about thirty and six man and they pursued them before the gate to Shebarim and they struck down them at the descent and it melted [the] heart of the people and it became water.
6 Jozue apasolaki bilamba na ye mpe amibwakaki elongi kino na mabele liboso ya Sanduku ya Yawe kino na pokwa. Bakambi ya Isalaele mpe basalaki kaka ndenge moko, bamisopelaki putulu na mito na bango.
And he tore Joshua clothes his and he fell on face his [the] ground towards before [the] ark of Yahweh until the evening he and [the] elders of Israel and they made go up dust on head their.
7 Jozue alobaki: — Ah Nkolo Yawe, mpo na nini otikaki ete bato oyo bakatisa Yordani? Boni, ezalaki mpo ete okaba biso na maboko ya bato ya Amori ete baboma biso? Elekaki malamu ete totikala na biso na ngambo mosusu ya ebale!
And he said Joshua alas! - O Lord Yahweh why? have you brought over at all the people this the Jordan to give us in [the] hand of the Amorite[s] to destroy us and if we had been willing and we had remained on [the] other side of the Jordan.
8 Oh Nkolo, sik’oyo naloba nini, awa Isalaele akimi liboso ya banguna na ye?
Pardon me O Lord what? will I say after that it has turned Israel a neck before enemies its.
9 Bato ya Kanana mpe bato mosusu ya mokili bakoyoka sango yango, bakobalukela biso mpe bakolongola kombo na biso na mokili. Boye, okosala nini mpo na monene ya Kombo na Yo?
And they may hear the Canaanite[s] and all [the] inhabitants of the land and they will surround us and they will cut off name our from the earth and what? will you do for name your great.
10 Yawe alobaki na Jozue: — Telema! Mpo na nini omibwaki elongi kino na mabele?
And he said Yahweh to Joshua stand up for yourself why? this [are] you falling on face your.
11 Isalaele asali lisumu. Babebisi boyokani na Ngai oyo natindaki bango ete babatela. Bakamati ndambo ya biloko oyo ekabami mpo na kobebisama, bayibi yango mpe babombi yango kati na biloko na bango.
It has sinned Israel and also they have transgressed covenant my which I commanded them and also they have taken some of the devoted thing[s] and also they have stolen and also they have deceived and also they have put [them] among things their.
12 Yango wana, bana ya Isalaele bakolonga kotelema te liboso ya banguna na bango, bakozonga sima mpe bakokima liboso ya banguna na bango, pamba te babebisi ekila. Nakozala elongo na bino te soki bolongoli te mabe oyo ezali kati na bino.
And not they are able [the] people of Israel to stand before enemies their a neck they turn before enemies their for they have become a devoted thing not I will repeat to be with you if not you will destroy the devoted thing[s] from midst your.
13 Telema, bulisa bato. Loba na bango: « Bomibulisa mpo na lobi, pamba te Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi boye: ‹ Mabe ezali kati na yo Isalaele, okolonga kobundisa banguna na yo te kino tango okolongola yango. ›
Arise consecrate the people and you will say consecrate yourselves for tomorrow for thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel devoted thing[s] [are] in midst your O Israel not you will be able to stand before enemies your until remove you the devoted thing[s] from midst your.
14 Lobi na tongo, bokopusana pene na Ngai, libota na libota. Libota oyo Yawe akopona ekopusana, etuka na etuka; etuka oyo Yawe akopona ekopusana, ndako na ndako; mpe ndako oyo Yawe akopona ekopusana, moto na moto.
And you will bring yourselves near in the morning to tribes your and it will be the tribe which he will take it Yahweh it will draw near to the families and the family which he will take it Yahweh it will draw near to the households and the household which he will take it Yahweh it will draw near to the men.
15 Moto nyonso oyo mabe ekomonana kati na ye asengeli kokufa na moto, ye elongo na nyonso ya ye, pamba te abebisi boyokani ya Yawe mpe asali likambo ya soni kati na Isalaele. »
And it will be the [one who] is taken by lot with the devoted thing[s] he will be burned with fire him and all that [belongs] to him for he has transgressed covenant of Yahweh and for he has done disgraceful folly in Israel.
16 Mokolo oyo elandaki, Jozue alamukaki na tongo-tongo penza, mpe abengisaki Isalaele, libota na libota. Mpe ezali libota ya Yuda nde eponamaki.
And he rose early Joshua in the morning and he brought near Israel to tribes its and it was taken by lot [the] tribe of Judah.
17 Tango abengisaki etuka na etuka ya libota ya Yuda, etuka ya Zera nde eponamaki. Tango abengisaki ndako na ndako kati na etuka ya Zera, ndako ya Zabidi nde eponamaki.
And he brought near [the] family of Judah and he took [the] family of the Zerahite[s] and he brought near [the] family of the Zerahite[s] to the men and he was taken by lot Zabdi.
18 Sima, tango abengisaki moto na moto kati na ndako ya Zabidi, Akana, mwana mobali ya Karimi, mwana mobali ya Zabidi, mwana mobali ya Zera, moto ya libota ya Yuda, nde aponamaki.
And he brought near household his to the men and he was taken by lot Achan [the] son of Carmi [the] son of Zabdi [the] son of Zerah of [the] tribe of Judah.
19 Jozue alobaki na Akana: — Mwana na ngai, pesa nkembo epai na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, mpe pesa Ye penza lokumu. Yebisa ngai likambo oyo osalaki, kobombela ngai eloko moko te.
And he said Joshua to Achan O son my put please glory to Yahweh [the] God of Israel and give to him confession and tell please to me what? have you done may not you hide [it] from me.
20 Akana azongiselaki Jozue: — Solo, nasali lisumu liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele. Tala likambo oyo nasalaki:
And he answered Achan Joshua and he said truly I I have sinned to Yahweh [the] God of Israel and like this and like this I have done.
21 Namonaki, kati na bomengo ya bitumba, kazaka moko ya kitoko ya mboka Mezopotami, mbongo ya bibende ya palata, nkama mibale mpe ndambo ya kilo ya wolo; nalulaki yango mpe nazwaki yango. Nakundaki yango na kati-kati ya ndako na ngai ya kapo, mpe palata ezali na se na yango.
(And I saw *Q(k)*) among the booty cloak of Shinar one good and two hundred shekels silver and a wedge of gold one [was] fifty shekels weight its and I desired them and I took them and there they [are] hidden in the ground in [the] midst of tent my and the silver [is] under it.
22 Jozue atindaki bato, mpe bakendeki mbangu kati na ndako ya kapo ya Akana mpe bakutaki penza kazaka bakunda na se ya ndako ya kapo, elongo na palata, na se na yango.
And he sent Joshua messengers and they ran the tent towards and there! [it was] hidden in tent his and the silver [was] under it.
23 Babimisaki biloko yango wuta na ndako na ye ya kapo, bamemaki yango liboso ya Jozue mpe ya bana nyonso ya Isalaele; mpe sima, basopaki yango liboso ya Yawe.
And they took them from [the] midst of the tent and they brought them to Joshua and to all [the] people of Israel and they poured out them before Yahweh.
24 Jozue elongo na bana nyonso ya Isalaele bakamataki Akana, mwana mobali ya Zera, elongo na palata, kazaka, liboke ya wolo, bana na ye ya mibali mpe ya basi, bangombe na ye, ba-ane na ye, bameme mpe bantaba na ye, ndako na ye ya kapo mpe biloko na ye nyonso; bamemaki bango na Lubwaku ya Akori.
And he took Joshua Achan [the] son of Zerah and the silver and the cloak and [the] wedge of gold and sons his and daughters his and ox[en] his and donkey[s] his and sheep his and tent his and all that [belonged] to him and all Israel with him and they brought up them [the] valley of Achor.
25 Jozue alobaki: « Mpo na nini omemeli biso pasi? Tika ete Yawe amonisa yo pasi lelo! » Bongo bato nyonso ya Isalaele babambaki ye mabanga mpe akufaki; babambaki lisusu mabanga na bato oyo batikalaki mpe bato yango bakufaki; mpe batumbaki bibembe na bango na moto.
And he said Joshua why? have you brought trouble to us he will bring trouble to you Yahweh on the day this and they stoned him all Israel stone[s] and they burned them with fire and they stoned them with stones.
26 Babwakaki na likolo ya Akana liboke ya mabanga ebele oyo ezali kino na mokolo ya lelo, mpe kanda ya Yawe esilaki. Yango wana, kino na mokolo ya lelo, babengaka esika yango Lubwaku ya Akori.
And they set up over him a heap of stones great until the day this and he turned back Yahweh from [the] burning of anger his there-fore someone called [the] name of the place that [the] valley of Achor until the day this.
