< Yoswa 18 >
1 Ekibiina kyonna eky’abaana ba Isirayiri ne bakuŋŋaanira mu Siiro ne basimba eyo Eweema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu. Ensi yali mu mikono gyabwe,
Afei a asase no abɛdi Israelfoɔ nsam no, Israelfoɔ nyinaa boaa wɔn ho ano wɔ Silo na wɔsii hyiadan.
2 wabula waali wakyaliwo ebika musanvu ebya Isirayiri ebyali tebinnafuna mugabo gwabyo.
Nanso, na aka mmusuakuo nson a wɔmfaa wɔn kyɛfa no mmaa wɔn.
3 Yoswa n’agamba abaana ba Isirayiri nti, “Mulituusa ddi okulinda nga temunnafuna mugabo Mukama Katonda wa bajjajjammwe gwe yabawa?
Enti, Yosua bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Moretwɛn akɔsi da bɛn ansa na moafa asase no nkaeɛ a Awurade, mo agyanom Onyankopɔn de ama mo no?
4 Mulonde abantu basatu mu buli kika mbatume bayite mu nsi bagyetegereze, ng’emigabo gyabwe bwe giri era bawandiike ng’emigabo gyabwe bwe giri bakomewo bantegeeze.
Monyi nnipa baasa mfiri abusuakuo biara mu na mɛsoma wɔn ama wɔakɔsra baabi a wɔnnii hɔ soɔ no. Wɔsane ba a, wɔbɛtwerɛ deɛ wɔhunuiɛ agu krataa so akyerɛ me sɛdeɛ wɔbɛkyekyɛ agyapadeɛ no.
5 Baligigabanyaamu ebitundu musanvu Yuda esigale mu bitundu byayo mu bukiikaddyo n’ennyumba ya Yusufu mu bitundu byayo mu bukiikakkono.
Akwansrafoɔ no bɛkyekyɛ asase no mu nson, na wɔremfa Yuda asase a ɛda anafoɔ fam ne Yosef asase a ɛwɔ atifi fam no nka ho.
6 Nga mumaze okugabanya ensi mu bitundu musanvu mundeetere bye muwandiise mbakubire obululu mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda waffe.
Afei, mɛbɔ ntonto a ɛho te wɔ Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn anim, apɛ baabi a wɔde bɛma abusuakuo biara.
7 Abaleevi tebalina mugabo mu mmwe kubanga obwakabona bwa Mukama gwe mugabo gwabwe, ne Gaadi, ne Lewubeeni n’ekitundu eky’ekika kya Manase bo baamala okuweebwa omugabo gwabwe emitala wa Yoludaani ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba, Musa omuweereza wa Mukama gwe yabawa.”
Nanso, Lewifoɔ no rennya asase biara. Wɔn dwumadie sɛ Awurade asɔfoɔ no bɛyɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ. Na Gad ne Ruben mmusuakuo ne Manase abusuakuo fa no nso renya asase no bi bio, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔanya wɔn agyapadeɛ a Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade ɔsomfoɔ de maa wɔn wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan apueeɛ fam no dada.”
8 Abantu ne bagenda okulaba ensi bw’efaanana, Yoswa n’alagira be baali batumye nti, “Mugende mutambuletambule mu nsi mugyetegereze bw’efaanana, mukomewo mbakubire obululu wano mu maaso ga Mukama e Siiro.”
Mmarima a wɔrekɔsusu asase no rebɛkɔ no, Yosua hyɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monkɔkyekyɛ asase no, na monsane mfa deɛ mohunuiɛ ho nsɛm a moatwerɛ agu krataa so mmrɛ me, na menam ntontobɔ kronkron a wɔbɛbɔ no Awurade anim wɔ Silo no so de asase no bɛma mmusuakuo no.”
9 Awo ne bagenda ne bayita mu nsi, ne bawandiika ebitundu musanvu ebifa ku bibuga mu kitabo, ne bakomawo ewa Yoswa mu lusiisira e Siiro.
Mmarima no yɛɛ sɛdeɛ wɔhyɛɛ wɔn no, kyekyɛɛ asase no nyinaa mu nson, twerɛɛ nkuro a ɛwɔ asase no nkyekyɛmu biara so. Wɔsane kɔɔ Yosua nkyɛn wɔ Silo atenaeɛ hɔ.
10 Awo Yoswa n’abakubira obululu mu Siiro mu maaso ga Mukama n’agabanyiza abaana ba Isirayiri ensi ng’ebitundu byabwe bwe byali.
Silo hɔ na Yosua bɔɔ ntonto kronkron wɔ Awurade anim de pɛɛ asaseta a ɛsɛ sɛ abusuakuo biara fa.
11 Awo akalulu k’ekika kya Benyamini, okusinziira ku nnyumba mwe bazaalibwa, ne katuuka era omugabo gwe baafuna ne guba mu makkati g’abaana ba Yuda n’abaana ba Yusufu.
Asase no nkyekyɛmu a ɛdi ɛkan no kɔɔ mmusua a ɛwɔ Benyamin abusuakuo no nsam. Na ɛda nsase a wɔde maa Yuda ne Yosef mmusuakuo no.
12 Ku luuyi olw’obukiikakkono ensalo yaabwe ne tandikira ku Yoludaani ne yeeyongera ku njegoyego z’obukiikakkono bwa Yeriko n’eyambuka mu nsi ey’ensozi ebugwanjuba n’ekomekkereza mu ddungu ly’e Besaveni.
