< Josoa 2 >
1 Ary Josoa, zanak’ i Nona, dia naniraka mpisafo roa lahy mangingina avy tany Sitima ka niteny taminy hoe: Mandehana, izahao ny tany, indrindra fa Jeriko. Dia niainga izy roa lahy ary niditra tao an-tranon’ ny vehivavy janga anankiray atao hoe Rahaba, ka nandry tao.
Therfor Josue, the sone of Nun, sente fro Sethym twei men, aspieris in hiddlis, and seide to hem, Go ye, and biholde ye the lond, and the citee of Jerico. Whiche yeden, and entriden into the hous of a womman hoore, `Raab bi name, and restiden at hir.
2 Ary nisy nilaza tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Jeriko hoe: Injao, misy olona avy tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely tonga atỳ izao alina izao hisafo ny tany.
And it was teld, `and seid to the kyng of Jerico, Lo! men of the sones of Israel entriden hidir bi nyyt, to aspie the lond.
3 Dia naniraka tao amin’ i Rahaba ny mpanjakan’ i Jeriko ka nanao hoe: Avoahy ireo lehilahy tonga ato an-tranonao ireo; fa hisafo ny tany no nihaviany.
Therfor the kyng of Jerico sente to Raab the hoore, and seide, Brynge out the men, that camen to thee, and entriden in to thin hous; for thei ben aspieris, and thei camen to biholde al the lond.
4 Dia nalain-dravehivavy izy roa lahy ka nafeniny ary hoy izy: Tonga tatỳ amiko ihany tokoa ireny lehilahy ireny, nefa tsy fantatro izay nihaviany;
And the womman took the men, and hidde hem, and seide, Y knowleche, thei camen to me, but Y wiste not of whenus thei weren;
5 ary rehefa maizina ny andro, ka hohidiana ny vavahady, dia lasa nivoaka izy, ka tsy fantatro indray izay nalehany; enjeho faingana izy, fa ho tratranareo.
and whanne the yate was closid in derknessis, and thei yeden out to gidire, Y noot whidur thei yeden; pursue ye soone, and ye schulen take hem.
6 Kanjo efa nampiakarin-dravehivavy any an-tampon-trano izy ka nafeniny ao amin’ ny tahon-drongony, izay efa nalahany teo amin’ ny tampon-trano.
Forsothe sche made the men to stie in to the soler of hir hows, and hilide hem with stobil of flex, that was there.
7 Ary ireo olona dia nanenjika azy tamin’ ny lalana mankany Jordana hatrany amin’ ny fitàna; ary rehefa lasa nivoaka izay nanenjika azy, dia nohidiana ny vavahady.
Sotheli thei, that weren sent, sueden hem bi the weie that ledith to the fordis of Jordan; and whanne thei weren goon out, anoon the yate was closid.
8 Ary raha mbola tsy natory izy roa lahy, dia niakatra nankao aminy tao an-tampontrano ravehivavy
Thei that weren hid, slepten not yit, and lo! the womman stiede to hem, and seide,
9 ka nanao taminy hoe: Fantatro fa efa nomen’ i Jehovah anareo ny tany, ary efa latsaka aminay ny fahatahorana anareo, sady efa ketraka ny mponina rehetra amin’ ny tany noho ny tahotra anareo.
Y knowe that the Lord hath bitake to you this lond; for youre feerdfulnesse felde in to vs, and alle the dwelleris of the lond `weren sike.
10 Fa efa renay ny nanamainan’ i Jehovah ny Ranomasina Mena teo anoloanareo tamin’ ny nivoahanareo avy tany Egypta, sy izay nataonareo tamin’ ny mpanjaka roa tamin’ ny Amorita, izay tany an-dafin’ i Jordana, dia Sihona sy Oga, izay novonoinareo.
We herden, that the Lord driede the watris of the Reed See at youre entryng, whanne ye yeden out of Egipt; and what thingis ye diden to twei kyngis of Ammorreis, that weren biyende Jordan, to Seon and Og, whiche ye killiden;
11 Koa nony efa renay izany, dia ketraka ny fonay, ka very hevitra avokoa izahay noho ny aminareo; fa Jehovah Andriamanitrareo, Izy no Andriamanitra any amin’ ny lanitra ambony sy etỳ amin’ ny tany ambany.
and we herden these thingis, and we dredden, and oure herte `was sike, and spirit dwellide not in vs at youre entryng; for youre Lord God hym silf is God in heuene aboue, and in erthe bynethe.
12 Koa ankehitriny, masìna ianareo, mba ianiano amin’ i Jehovah aho fa araka ny namindrako fo taminareo no mba hamindranareo fo amin’ ny ankohonan’ ny raiko kosa, ka omeo famantarana mahatoky aho
Now therfor swere ye to me bi the Lord God, that as Y dide merci with you, so and ye do with the hows of my fadir; and yyue ye to me a veri signe,
13 fa hovelominareo ny raiko sy ny reniko sy ny anadahiko sy ny rahavaviko ary izay rehetra mety ho azy; dia hamonjy ny ainay tsy ho faty ianareo.
that ye saue my fadir and modir, and my britheren and sistris, and alle thingis that ben herne, and dilyuere oure lyues fro deeth.
14 Dia hoy izy roa lahy taminy: Ny ainay no ho faty hisolo anareo, raha tsy holazainareo izao raharahanay izao; ary raha omen’ i Jehovah anay ny tany, dia hamindra fo sy hanao izay marina aminao izahay.
Whiche answeriden to hir, Oure lijf be for you in to deeth, if netheles thou bitraiest not vs; and whanne the Lord hath bitake to vs the lond, we schulen do mercy and treuthe in thee.
15 Dia nampidina azy tamin’ ny mahazaka avy teo amin’ ny varavarankely izy; fa teo amin’ ny màndan’ ny tanàna ny tranony, ary teo amin’ ny manda no nitoerany.
Therfor sche let hem doun fro the wyndow bi a corde; for hir hows cleuyde to the wal.
16 Dia hoy izy taminy: Mandehana any an-tendrombohitra, fandrao hifanena aminareo ny mpanenjika, ka miere any hateloana mandra-piveriny; ary rehefa afaka izany, dia vao mandehana any amin’ izay halehanareo.
And sche seide to hem, Stie ye to the hilli places, lest perauenture men turnynge ayen meete you; and be ye hidde there three daies, til thei comen ayen; and so ye schulen go bi youre weie.
17 Ary hoy izy roa lahy taminy: Izao no tsy hanananay tsiny ny amin’ izany fianianana nampianianinao anay izany:
Whiche seiden to hir, We schulen be giltles of this ooth, bi which thou hast chargid vs,
18 Indro, rehefa tonga eto amin’ ny tany izahay, dia hafehinao eo amin’ ny varavarankely izay nampidinanao anay io kofehy jaky io; ary ny rainao sy ny reninao sy ny anadahinao mbamin’ ny ankohonan’ ny rainao rehetra dia hovorinao ho ao an-tranonao;
if, whanne we entren in to the lond, this reed corde is not a signe, and thou byndist it not in the wyndow, bi which thou lettist vs doun; and thou gaderist not in to thi hows thi fadir and modir, and britheren, and al thi kynrede; the blood of hym schal be on his heed,
19 ary izay rehetra mivoaka eo am-baravaran’ ny tranonao ho eny ivelany, dia ho eo an-dohany ihany ny ràny, ary izahay tsy hanan-tsiny; fa izay rehetra mitoetra ao aminao ao an-trano, dia ho eo an-dohanay kosa ny ràny, raha tàhiny misy olona maninona azy akory;
that goith out at the dore of thin hows, and we schulen be alien, that is, giltles; forsothe the blood of alle men that ben in the hows with thee, schal turne in to oure heed, if ony man touchith hem.
20 fa raha tàhiny hambarambaranao izao raharahanay izao, dia ho afaka amin’ ny fianianana izay nampianianinao anay izahay.
`That if thou wolt betraie vs, and brynge forth in to the myddis this word, we schulen be cleene of this ooth, bi which thou hast chargid vs.
21 Dia hoy ravehivavy: Eny ary, fa marina izany. Dia nampandehaniny izy roa lahy, ka lasa izy; ary nafehiny teo amin’ ny varavarankely ilay kofehy jaky.
And sche answeride, As ye han spoke, so be it doon. And sche lefte hem, that thei schulden go, and sche hangide a reed corde in her wyndow.
22 Dia nandeha izy roa lahy ka nankany an-tendrombohitra ary nitoetra tany hateloana mandra-piverin’ ny mpanenjika; ary nitady azy tamin’ ny lalana rehetra ny mpanenjika, nefa tsy nahita.
Sotheli thei yeden, and camen to the hilli places, and dwelliden there three daies, til thei turneden ayen that pursueden; for thei souyten bi ech weie, and founden not hem.
23 Dia niverina izy roa lahy ka nidina avy tany an-tendrombohitra, dia nita ny ony ary nankany amin’ i Josoa, zanak’ i Nona, ka nilaza ny zavatra rehetra izay efa nihatra taminy,
And whanne the sekeris entriden in to the citee, the spieris turneden ayen, and camen doun fro the hille; and whanne thei hadde passid Jordan, thei camen to Josue, the sone of Nun;
24 ka hoy izy tamin’ i Josoa: Efa natolotr’ i Jehovah eo an-tanantsika tokoa ny tany rehetra; ary efa ketraka ny mponina rehetra amin’ ny tany noho ny tahotra antsika.
and thei telden to hym alle thingis that bifelden to hem, and seiden, The Lord hath bitake al the lond in to oure hondis, and alle the dwelleris thereof ben casten doun bi drede.
