Josoa 9

1 Ary rehefa nandre izany ny mpanjaka rehetra izay etỳ an-dafin’ i Jordana, na ny tany amin’ ny tany havoana, na ny tany amin’ ny tany lemaka amoron-tsiraka, na ny tany amoron’ ny Ranomasina Lehibe tandrifin’ i Libanona, dia ny Hetita, ny Amorita, ny Kananita, ny Perizita, ny Hivita ary ny Jebosita,

And whanne these thingis weren herd, alle the kyngis biyende Jordan, that lyueden in the hilly places, and in `the feeldi places, in the coostis of the see, and in the brynke of the greet see, and thei that dwellen bisidis Liban, Ethei, and Ammorrei, Cananei, and Feresey, Euey, and Jebusey,

2 dia niray hina niangona hiady amin’ i Josoa sy ny Isiraely izy.

weren gaderid togidere to fiyte ayens Josue and Israel, with o wille, and the same sentence.

3 Ary ny mponina tao Gibeona nahare izay nanaovan’ i Josoa an’ i Jeriko sy Ay,

And thei that dwelten in Gabaon, herden alle thingis whiche Josue hadde do to Jerico, and to Hay; and thei thouyten felli,

4 dia nanao hafetsena kosa izy ka nandeha, ary nody ho iraka ka nitondra lasaka tonta nasampiny teo amin’ ny borikiny sy siny hoditra tonta sady triatra ka nofehipehezina nasiany divay,

and token to hem silf metis, and puttyden elde sackis on assis, and wyn botels brokun and sewid, and ful elde schoon,

5 ary kapa tonta sady nitampintampina teo amin’ ny tongony, ary lamba tonta notafiny; ary efa maina sy bobongolo ny mofo rehetra izay vatsiny.

whiche weren sewid togidere with patchis, to `the schewyng of eldenesse; and thei weren clothid with elde clothis; also looues, whiche thei baren for lijflode in the weie, weren harde and brokun in to gobetis.

6 Dia nankany amin’ i Josoa teo an-toby tany Gilgala izy ireo ka niteny taminy sy tamin’ ny Isiraelita nanao hoe: Avy any an-tany lavitra izahay; koa ankehitriny mba manaova fanekena aminay ianareo.

And thei yeden to Josue, that dwellide thanne in tentis in Galgala; and thei seiden to hym, and to al Israel togidere, We comen fro a fer lond, and coueyten to make pees with you. And the men of Israel answeriden to hem,

7 Ary hoy ny Isiraelita tamin’ ireo Hivita ireo: Angamba mponina ato aminay ihany ianareo, ka hataonay ahoana no fanao fanekena aminareo?

and seiden, Lest perauenture ye dwellen in the lond, which is due to vs bi eritage, and we moun not make bond of pees with you.

8 Fa hoy izy tamin’ i Josoa: Mpanomponao izahay. Ary hoy Josoa taminy: Iza moa ianareo, ary avy aiza?

And thei seiden to Josue, We ben thi seruauntis. To whiche Josue seide, What men ben ye, and fro whennus camen ye?

9 Dia hoy izy ireo taminy: Avy tany an-tany lavitra indrindra izahay mpanomponao noho ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao; fa efa renay ny lazany sy izay rehetra nataony tany Egypta

Thei answeriden, Thi seruauntis camen fro a ful fer lond in the name of thi Lord God, for we herden the fame of his power, alle thingis whiche he dide in Egipt,

10 ary izay rehetra nataony tamin’ ny mpanjaka roa tamin’ ny Amorita, izay tany an-dafin’ i Jordana, dia Sihona, mpanjakan’ i Hesbona, sy Oga, mpanjakan’ i Basana, izay tany Astarta.

and to twei kyngis of Ammorreis biyendis Jordan; to Seon king of Esebon, and to Og kyng of Basan, that weren in Astroth.

11 Dia niteny taminay ny loholonay sy ny mponina rehetra amin’ ny taninay ka nanao hoe: Mitondrà vatsy eny an-tananareo ho any amin’ ny haleha, dia mandehana hitsena azy, ka lazao aminy hoe: Mpanomponao izahay; koa ankehitriny manaova fanekena aminay.

And the eldere men and alle the dwelleris of oure lond seiden to vs, Take ye metis in youre hondis, for lengeste weie; and go ye to hem, and seie ye, We ben youre seruauntis; make ye boond of pees with vs.

12 Itony mofonay itony dia vao mafana no nalainay tany an-tranonay ho vatsy tamin’ ny andro nivoahanay hankatỳ aminareo; fa ankehitriny, indro, efa maina sy bobongolo izy;

And we token hoote looues, whanne we yeden out of oure housis to come to you; now tho ben maad drye and brokun, for greet eldenesse;

13 ary vaovao ireto siny hoditra misy divay ireto izay nofenoinay; fa, indreo, efa triatra izy; ary efa rovitra ireto lambanay sy kapanay ireto noho ny halavitry ny naleha.

we filliden newe botels of wyn; now tho ben brokun and vndoon; the clothis and schoon, with whiche we ben clothid, and whiche we han `in the feet, ben brokun and almost wastid, fro the lengthe of lengere weie.

14 Ary nangalan’ ny olona ny vatsin’ ireo, nefa tsy nanontany tamin’ ny vavan’ i Jehovah izy.

Therfor `the sones of Israel token of the metis of hem, and thei axiden not `the mouth of the Lord.

15 Ary Josoa dia nanao fihavanana taminy ka nanao fanekena taminy mba tsy hamono azy; ary ny lohan’ ny fiangonana koa dia nianiana taminy.

And Josue made pees with hem. And whanne the boond of pees was maad, he bihiyte, that thei schulden not be slayn; and the princes of the multitude sworen to hem.

16 Ary nony efa afaka hateloana no nanaovany fanekena taminy, dia reny fa mifanakaiky aminy ihany ireo sady mitoetra eo aminy.

Forsothe aftir thre daies of the boond of pees maad, thei herden, that thei dwelliden in nyy place, and that thei schulden be among hem.

17 Dia niainga ny Zanak’ Isiraely ka tonga tany an-tanànan’ ireo tamin’ ny andro fahatelo. Ary Gibeona sy Kefira sy Berota ary Kiriata-jearima no tanànany.

And the sones of Israel mouyden tentis, and camen in the thridde dai in to the citees of hem, of whiche citees these ben the names; Gabaon, and Caphira, and Beroth, and Cariathiarym.

18 Fa tsy namely azy ny Zanak’ Isiraely, satria Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, no efa nianianan’ ny lohan’ ny fiangonana taminy. Dia nimonomonona tamin’ ireo loholona ny fiangonana rehetra.

And thei smytiden not hem, for the princis of the multitude hadden swore to hem in the name of the Lord God of Israel. Therfor al the comyn puple grutchide ayens the princis of Israel;

19 Fa hoy ny loholona rehetra tamin’ ny fiangonana rehetra: Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, no efa nianiananay taminy; koa ankehitriny tsy mahazo mamely azy isika.

whiche answeriden to hem, We sworen to hem in the name of the Lord God of Israel, and therfor we moun not touche hem;

20 Fa izao no hataontsika aminy: Havelantsika ho velona ihany izy, fandrao hisy fahatezerana mahatratra antsika noho ny fianianana nataontsika taminy.

but we schulen do this thing to hem, sotheli be thei reserued that thei lyue, lest the ire of the Lord be stirid ayens vs, if we forsweren to hem;

21 Ary hoy koa ny loholona taminy: Aoka ihany ho velona izy. Dia tonga mpikapa hazo sy mpantsaka rano ho an’ ny fiangonana rehetra izy, araka ny teny nataon’ ny loholona taminy.

but so lyue thei, that thei hewe trees, and bere watris, in to the vsis of al the multitude. And while thei spaken these thingis,

22 Dia niantso azy ireo Josoa ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana no namitaka anay ianareo ka nanao hoe: Lavitra anareo indrindra izahay, kanjo eto aminay ihany no onenanareo?

Josue clepide Gabonytis, and seide to hem, Whi wolden ye disseyue vs bi fraude, `that ye seiden, We dwellen ful fer fro you, sithen ye ben in the myddis of vs?

23 Koa ankehitriny voaozona ianareo, ary tsy hisy ho afaka, fa ho andevo sy ho mpikapa hazo ary ho mpantsaka rano ho an’ ny tranon’ Andriamanitro ianareo.

Therfor ye schulen be `vndur cursyng, and noon schal faile of youre generacioun, hewynge trees and berynge watris, in to the hows of my God.

24 Dia namaly an’ i Josoa izy ireo ka nanao hoe: Satria nambara tokoa taminay mpanomponao fa Jehovah Andriamanitrao efa nandidy an’ i Mosesy mpanompony hanome anareo ny tany rehetra sy handringana ny mponina rehetra amin’ ny tany eo anoloanareo, ary natahotra ny ho faty izahay noho ny aminareo, ka dia nanao izany zavatra izany;

Whiche answeryden, It was told to vs thi seruauntis, that thi Lord God bihiyte to Moises, his seruaunt, that he schulde bitake to you al the lond, and schulde leese alle the dwelleris therof; therfor we dredden greetli, and purueiden to oure lyues, and weren compellid bi youre drede, and we token this counsel.

25 koa ankehitriny, indreto, eto an-tananao izahay, koa araka izay ataonao ho tsara sy marina hatao aminay dia ataovy.

`Now forsothe we ben in `thin hond; do thou to vs that, that semeth riytful and good to thee.

26 Dia nanao izany taminy izy ka namonjy azy tamin’ ny tanan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely, mba tsy hahafaty azy ireo.

Therfor Josue dide, as he seide, and delyuerede hem fro the hondis of the sones of Israel, that thei schulden not be slayn.

27 Dia natolotr’ i Josoa tamin’ izany andro izany ireo ho mpikapa hazo sy ho mpantsaka rano ho an’ ny fiangonana sy ho an’ ny alitaran’ i Jehovah mandraka androany eo amin’ ny tany izay hofidiny.

And in that dai Josue demyde hem to be in to the seruyce of al the puple, and of the auter of the Lord, and to hewe trees, and to bere watris, `til in to present tyme, in the place which the Lord hadde chose.
