< Josoa 7 >
1 Fa ny Zanak’ Isiraely nandika ny didy ny amin’ ny zavatra voaozona; fa Akana, zanak’ i Karmy, zanak’ i Zabdy, zanak’ i Zera, avy tamin’ ny firenen’ i Joda, naka tamin’ ny zavatra efa voaozona, ka dia nirehitra tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah.
And the sons of Israel commit a trespass in the devoted thing, and Achan, son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, takes from the devoted thing, and the anger of YHWH burns against the sons of Israel.
2 Ary Josoa naniraka olona hiala tany Jeriko hankany Ay, izay eo anilan’ i Betavena, atsinanan’ i Betela, ka niteny taminy hoe: Miakara, ka safoy ny tany. Dia niakatra ny olona ka nisafo an’ i Ay.
And Joshua sends men from Jericho to Ai, which [is] near Beth-Aven, on the east of Bethel, and speaks to them, saying, “Go up and spy out the land”; and the men go up and spy Ai,
3 Ary niverina tany amin’ i Josoa izy ireo ka nanao taminy hoe: Aoka tsy hiakatra avokoa ny vahoaka rehetra; fa olona tokony ho roa arivo na telo arivo no aoka hiakatra hamely an’ i Ay; aza manasatra ny vahoaka rehetra hankany, fa vitsy ihany izy.
and they return to Joshua, and say to him, “Do not let all the people go up; let about two thousand men, or about three thousand men, go up, and they strike Ai; do not cause all the people to labor there; for they [are] few.”
4 Dia niakatra nankany ny olona sasany, tokony ho telo arivo lahy; kanjo nandositra teo anoloan’ ny mponina tao Ay ireo.
So about three thousand men of the people go up from there, and they flee before the men of Ai,
5 Dia nahafaty tokony ho enina amby telo-polo lahy ny mponina tao Ay sady nanenjika azy teo anoloan’ ny vavahady ka hatrany Sebarima izy ary namely azy teny am-pidinana; dia ketraka ny fon’ ny vahoaka ka tonga tahaka ny rano.
and the men of Ai strike about thirty-six men from them, and pursue them before the gate to Shebarim, and they strike them in Morad; and the heart of the people is melted, and becomes water.
6 Dia notriarin’ i Josoa ny fitafiany, ka niankohoka tamin’ ny tany teo anoloan’ ny fiaran’ i Jehovah mandra-paharivan’ ny andro izy sy ny loholon’ ny Isiraely, sady nasiany vovoka ny lohany.
And Joshua tears his garments, and falls on his face to the earth before the Ark of YHWH until the evening, he and [the] elderly of Israel, and they cause dust to go up on their head.
7 Ary hoy Josoa: Indrisy, Jehovah Tompo ô! nahoana no nampita ity firenena ity foana teo Jordana Hianao, hanoloranao anay eo an-tànan’ ny Amorita handringanana anay? Inay anie izahay mba nety nitoetra tany an-dafin’ i Jordana ihany!
And Joshua says, “Aah! Lord YHWH, why have You caused this people to pass over the Jordan at all, to give us into the hand of the Amorite to destroy us? And oh that we had been willing—and we dwell beyond the Jordan!
8 Indrisy, Tompo ô! inona intsony no holazaiko, fa ny Isiraely efa niamboho teo anoloan’ ny fahavalony?
Oh, Lord, what do I say, after that Israel has turned the neck before its enemies?
9 Ary ho ren’ ny Kananita sy ny mponina rehetra amin’ ny tany izany, dia hanodidina anay izy ka hamono ny anaranay tsy ho eo amin’ ny tany intsony; ary hataonao ahoana ny anaranao lehibe?
And the Canaanite and all the inhabitants of the land hear, and have come around against us, and cut off our name from the earth; and what do You do for Your great Name?”
10 Dia hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Josoa: Mitsangàna; nahoana no miankohoka toy izao ianao?
And YHWH says to Joshua, “Rise, for you—why this—[that] you [are] falling on your face?
11 Efa nanota ny Isiraely ka nivadika ny fanekeko izay nandidiako azy; fa efa naka tamin’ ny zavatra voaozona izy, sady nangalatra sy namitaka koa, ka nataony ao amin’ ny entany.
Israel has sinned, and they have also transgressed My covenant which I commanded them, and also taken of the devoted thing, and also stolen, and also deceived, and also put [it] among their vessels,
12 Koa tsy mahajanona eo anoloan’ ny fahavalony ny Zanak’ Isiraely; miamboho eo anoloan’ ny fahavalony izy, satria tonga voaozona. Tsy homba anareo intsony Aho, raha tsy holevonina tsy ho eo aminareo ny zavatra efa voaozona.
and the sons of Israel have not been able to stand before their enemies; they turn the neck before their enemies, for they have become a devoted thing; I do not add to be with you—if you do not destroy the devoted thing from your midst.
13 Mitsangana, manamasìna ny vahoaka, ka lazao hoe: Manamasìna ny tenanareo mandra-pahamaraina; fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Eo aminao misy zavatra efa voaozona, ry Isiraely; koa tsy mahajanona eo anoloan’ ny fahavalonao ianao mandra-panaisotrareo ny zavatra efa voaozona tsy ho eo aminareo intsony.
Rise, sanctify the people, and you have said, Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow; for thus said YHWH, God of Israel: A devoted thing [is] in your midst, O Israel, you are not able to stand before your enemies until your turning aside the devoted thing from your midst;
14 Dia hampanatonina ianareo raha maraina araka ny firenenareo avy; koa ny firenena izay tanan’ i Jehovah dia hanatona isam-pokony; ary ny foko izay tanan’ i Jehovah dia hanatona indray isam-pianakaviana; ary ny fianakaviana izay tanan’ i Jehovah dia hanatona indray isam-batan’ olona.
and you have been brought near in the morning by your tribes, and it has been [that] the tribe which YHWH captures draws near by families, and the family which YHWH captures draws near by households, and the household which YHWH captures draws near by men;
15 Koa izay azo mitana ny zavatra voazona, dia hodorana amin’ ny afo izy mbamin’ izay rehetra mety ho azy, satria nivadika ny faneken’ i Jehovah izy ka nanao izay fady indrindra teo amin’ ny Isiraely.
and it has been, he who is captured with the devoted thing is burned with fire, he and all that he has, because he has transgressed the covenant of YHWH, and because he has done folly in Israel.”
16 Dia nifoha maraina koa Josoa ka nampanatona ny Isiraely araka ny fireneny avy; ary ny firenen’ i Joda no notanana.
And Joshua rises early in the morning, and brings Israel near by its tribes, and the tribe of Judah is captured;
17 Dia nitondra ireo fokon’ i Joda izy; ka ny fianakavian’ i Zera no notanana; dia nampanatona ny fianakavian’ i Zera indray isam-batan’ olona izy, ka Zabdy no notanana;
and he brings the family of Judah near, and he captures the family of the Zerahite; and he brings the family of the Zerahite near by men, and Zabdi is captured;
18 dia nampanatona ny ankohonany araka ny olona tsirairay izy; dia Akana, zanak’ i Karmy, zanak’ i Zabdy zanak’ i Zera, avy tamin’ ny firenen’ i Joda, no notanana.
and he brings his household near by men, and Achan—son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah—is captured.
19 Dia hoy Josoa tamin’ i Akana: Anaka, masìna ianao, omeo voninahitra Jehovah Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, ka mitsora aminy; ary lazao amiko ankehitriny izay nataonao; aza afeninao ahy izany.
And Joshua says to Achan, “My son, please give glory to YHWH, God of Israel, and give thanks to Him, and now declare to me what you have done—do not hide [it] from me.”
20 Ary Akana namaly an’ i Josoa ka nanao hoe; Eny tokoa, izaho no nanota tamin’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, ary izao ka izao no nataoko:
And Achan answers Joshua and says, “Truly I have sinned against YHWH, God of Israel, and I have done thus and thus;
21 Nahita kapôty tsara avy any Babylona aho sy sekely volafotsy roanjato ary anja-bolamena, lanjan-tsekely dimam-polo, tamin’ ny babo, dia nitsiriritra ireny aho ka naka; ary, indreo, voàfina ao ambanin’ ny tany ao amin’ ny laiko ireny, ary ny volafotsy ao ambaniny.
and I see among the spoil a good robe of Shinar, and two hundred shekels of silver, and one wedge of gold, whose weight [is] fifty shekels, and I desire them, and take them; and behold, they [are] hid in the earth, in the midst of my tent, and the silver [is] under it.”
22 Dia naniraka olona Josoa, ka nihazakazaka nankany amin’ ny lay ireo, ary, indro, voàfina tao anatin’ ny lainy ny zavatra, ary ny volafotsy tao ambaniny.
And Joshua sends messengers, and they run to the tent, and behold, it is hidden in his tent, and the silver [is] under it;
23 Dia nalainy avy ao amin’ ny lay ireny ka nentiny teo amin’ i Josoa sy ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra, ary napetrany teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah
and they take them out of the midst of the tent, and bring them to Joshua, and to all the sons of Israel, and pour them out before YHWH.
24 Dia nalain’ i Josoa sy ny Isiraely rehetra Akana, zanak’ i Zera, ary ny volafotsy sy ny kapôty sy ny anja-bolamena ary ny zananilahy sy ny zananivavy ary ny ombiny sy ny borikiny sy ny ondriny aman’ osiny ary ny lainy mbamin’ izay rehetra nety ho azy; dia nentiny ho ao an-dohasaha Akora ireny.
And Joshua takes Achan son of Zerah, and the silver, and the robe, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his ox, and his donkey, and his flock, and his tent, and all that he has, and all Israel with him, and they brought them up [to] the Valley of Achor.
25 Ary hoy Josoa: Adray ny loza nampidirinao taminay! Mba hahatonga loza aminao kosa Jehovah anio. Dia nitora-bato azy ny Isiraely rehetra ary nandoro ireny tamin’ ny afo sady nanangom-bato teo amboniny.
And Joshua says, “Why have you troubled us? YHWH troubles you this day!” And all Israel cast stone at him, and they burn them with fire, and they stone them with stones,
26 Dia nanao antontam-bato lehibe hanarona azy mandraka androany izy. Ary Jehovah dia nionona tamin’ ny fahatezerany mirehitra. Izany no nanaovana ny anaran’ izany tany mandraka androany hoe Lohasaha Akora.
and they raise up a great heap of stones over him to this day, and YHWH turns back from the heat of His anger, therefore [one] has called the name of that place “Valley of Achor” until this day.
