Hohua 10
1 A, ka rongo a Aronitereke, te kingi o Hiruharama, kua horo a Hai i a Hohua, a kua whakangaromia hoki e ia; a ko tana i mea ai ki Heriko, ki tona kingi, ko tana hoki tera i mea ai ki Hai, ki tona kingi; a kua houhia e nga tangata o Kipeono te rong o ki a Iharaira, kua noho hoki ki waenganui i a ratou;
Now Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had captured Ai and devoted it to destruction —doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king—and that the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living near them.
2 Na tino wehi ana ratou; no te mea he pa nui a Kipeono, pera me tetahi o nga pa rangatira, he nui atu hoki i Hai, a ko ona tangata katoa he toa.
So Adoni-zedek and his people were greatly alarmed, because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities; it was larger than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
3 Na ka tono tangata a Aronitereke kingi o Hiruharama ki a Hohama kingi o Heperona, ki a Pirama kingi o Iaramuta, ki a Tapia kingi o Rakihi, ratou ko Repiri kingi o Ekerona, ka mea,
Therefore Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent word to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying,
4 Haere mai ki ahau, hei awhina moku, kia patua ai e tatou a Kipeono, mo ratou i hohou i te rongo ki a Hohua ratou ko nga tama a Iharaira.
“Come up and help me. We will attack Gibeon, because they have made peace with Joshua and the Israelites.”
5 Na huihui ana, haere mai ana nga kingi tokorima o nga Amori, te kingi o Hiruharama, te kingi o Heperona, te kingi o Iaramuta, te kingi o Rakihi, te kingi o Ekerona, ratou ko a ratou taua katoa, a whakapae ana i Kipeono, tatau ana i reira.
So the five kings of the Amorites—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon—joined forces and advanced with all their armies. They camped before Gibeon and made war against it.
6 Na ka tono tangata nga tangata o Kipeono ki a Hohua ki te puni, ki Kirikara, ka mea, Kei puhoi mai tou ringa ki au pononga; hohoro te haere mai ki a matou, ki te whakaora i a matou, awhinatia mai hoki matou; no te mea kua rupeke mai nga kingi kat oa o nga Amori e noho ana i nga maunga ki a matou.
Then the men of Gibeon sent word to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal: “Do not abandon your servants. Come quickly and save us! Help us, because all the kings of the Amorites from the hill country have joined forces against us.”
7 Na haere atu ana a Hohua i Kirikara, ratou tahi ko te hunga hapai patu katoa, me nga tangata maia katoa.
So Joshua and his whole army, including all the mighty men of valor, came from Gilgal.
8 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Hohua, Kaua e wehi i a ratou: kua hoatu hoki ratou e ahau ki tou ringa, a e kore tetahi tangata o ratou e tu ki tou aroaro.
The LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for I have delivered them into your hand. Not one of them shall stand against you.”
9 Na huakina tatatia ana ratou e Hohua; i haere ake hoki ia i Kirikara i te po.
After marching all night from Gilgal, Joshua caught them by surprise.
10 Na meinga ana ratou e Ihowa kia pororaru i mua i a Iharaira, a patua ana ratou e ia ki Kipeono, he nui te parekura, a whaia ana ratou e ia i te huarahi e haere ana ki runga ki Petehorono, na tukitukia ana ratou a tae noa ki Ateka, a Makera atu a na.
And the LORD threw them into confusion before Israel, who defeated them in a great slaughter at Gibeon, pursued them along the ascent to Beth-horon, and struck them down as far as Azekah and Makkedah.
11 A, i a ratou e rere ana i te aroaro o Iharaira, i te hekenga iho ki Petehorono, na ka maka iho e Ihowa he kohatu nunui i te rangi ki runga ki a ratou a tae noa ki Ateka, na mate ana ratou: hira ake nga tangata i mate i nga nganga kohatu i nga me a i patua e nga tama a Iharaira ki te hoari.
As they fled before Israel along the descent from Beth-horon to Azekah, the LORD cast down on them large hailstones from the sky, and more of them were killed by the hailstones than by the swords of the Israelites.
12 Katahi ka korero a Hohua ki a Ihowa i te ra i homai ai e Ihowa nga Amori ki te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira, ka mea hoki i te tirohanga mai o Iharaira, Kati mai koe, e te ra, i runga i Kipeono; me koe hoki, e te marama, ki te raorao o Atarono.
On the day that the LORD gave the Amorites over to the Israelites, Joshua spoke to the LORD in the presence of Israel: “O sun, stand still over Gibeon, O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.”
13 Na mau tonu mai te ra, tu tonu mai hoki te marama, a whiwhi noa te iwi ki te utu i o ratou hoariri. Kahore ianei tenei mea i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka a Tahera? Tu ana tera te komaru i waenganui o te rangi, kahore ano hoki i hohoro te heke a rite noa tetahi ra tuturu.
So the sun stood still and the moon stopped until the nation took vengeance upon its enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? “So the sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.”
14 Na kahore he rite mo taua ra i mua atu, i muri mai ranei, i rongo ai a Ihowa ki te reo tangata: i whawhai hoki a Ihowa mo Iharaira.
There has been no day like it before or since, when the LORD listened to the voice of a man, because the LORD fought for Israel.
15 Na hoki ana a Hohua ratou tahi ko Iharaira katoa ki te puni, ki Kirikara.
Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.
16 Ko aua kingi tokorima ia i rere, a piri ana ki roto ki tetahi ana i Makera.
Now the five kings had fled and hidden in the cave at Makkedah.
17 A ka korerotia ki a Hohua, i meatia, Kua kitea nga kingi tokorima, kei te ana i Makera e piri ana.
And Joshua was informed: “The five kings have been found; they are hiding in the cave at Makkedah.”
18 Na ka mea a Hohua, Hurihia atu etahi kohatu nunui ki te kuwaha o te ana, whakanohoia hoki etahi tangata ki reira hei tiaki i a ratou.
So Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave, and post men there to guard them.
19 Ko koutou ia kaua hei tu; whaia o koutou hoariri, patua te hiku o ratou; kaua hoki ratou e tukua kia tapoko ki roto ki o ratou pa: he mea hoki kua homai ratou e Ihowa, e to koutou Atua, ki to koutou ringa.
But you, do not stop there. Pursue your enemies and attack them from behind. Do not let them reach their cities, for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand.”
20 A, no ka mutu i a Hohua ratou ko nga tama a Iharaira te patu i a ratou, he nui rawa te parekura a poto noa ratou, ko nga morehu o ratou i toe i riro ki roto ki nga pa whai taiepa,
So Joshua and the Israelites continued to inflict a terrible slaughter until they had finished them off, and the remaining survivors retreated to the fortified cities.
21 Na hoki marie ana te iwi katoa ki a Hohua, ki te puni, ki Makera: kihai rawa hoki i oraora te arero o tetahi tangata ki tetahi o nga tama a Iharaira.
The whole army returned safely to Joshua in the camp at Makkedah, and no one dared to utter a word against the Israelites.
22 Katahi ka mea a Hohua, Uakina te kuwaha o te ana, whakaputaina mai hoki ki ahau i te ana nga kingi tokorima na.
Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and bring those five kings out to me.”
23 Na peratia ana e ratou, whakaputaina mai ana e ratou ki a ia i te ana aua kingi tokorima, te kingi o Hiruharama, te kingi o Heperona, te kingi o Iaramuta, te kingi o Rakihi, me te kingi o Ekerona.
So they brought the five kings out of the cave—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon.
24 A, ka oti aua kingi te whakaputa mai e ratou ki a Hohua, ka karanga a Hohua ki nga tangata katoa o Iharaira, a ka mea ki nga rangatira o nga tangata hapai patu i haere tahi me ia, Whakatata mai, e tu o koutou waewae ki runga ki nga kaki o enei k ingi. Na whakatata ana mai ratou, tu ana o ratou waewae ki runga ki o ratou kaki.
When they had brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned all the men of Israel and said to the army commanders who had accompanied him, “Come here and put your feet on the necks of these kings.” So the commanders came forward and put their feet on their necks.
25 I mea ano a Hohua ki a ratou, Kaua koutou e wehi, kaua hoki e pawera, kia kaha, kia toa: no te mea ka peneitia e Ihowa o koutou hoariri katoa e whawhai nei koutou ki a ratou.
“Do not be afraid or discouraged,” Joshua said. “Be strong and courageous, for the LORD will do this to all the enemies you fight.”
26 A muri iho ka patua ratou e Hohua, ka whakamatea, a whakairihia ake ratou ki runga ki nga rakau e rima: na iri ana ratou i runga i nga rakau a ahiahi noa.
After this, Joshua struck down and killed the kings, and he hung their bodies on five trees and left them there until evening.
27 Na i te wa o te tonga o te ra ka whakahaua e Hohua kia tangohia ki raro o nga rakau, kia maka hoki ki roto ki te ana i piri ai ratou, kia whakatakotoria hoki etahi kohatu nunui ki te kuwaha o te ana; e takoto mai nei a taea noatia tenei ra.
At sunset Joshua ordered that they be taken down from the trees and thrown into the cave in which they had hidden. Then large stones were placed against the mouth of the cave, and the stones are there to this day.
28 A horo ana i a Hohua a Makera i taua rangi ano, patua iho ana hoki e ia ki te mata o te hoari, me tona kingi ano; i whakangaromia rawatia ratou e ia me nga wairua katoa i roto, kahore he morehu i mahue i a ia: a peratia ana e ia te kingi o Maker a me tana i mea ai ki te kingi o Heriko.
On that day Joshua captured Makkedah and put it to the sword, along with its king. He devoted to destruction everyone in the city, leaving no survivors. So he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
29 Na haere atu ana a Hohua ratou tahi ko Iharaira katoa i Makera ki Ripina, a tauria ana e ia a Ripina:
Then Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Makkedah to Libnah and fought against Libnah.
30 A i homai ano e Ihowa a reira, me tona kingi, ki te ringa o Iharaira; na patua iho e ia a reira ki te mata o te hoari, me nga tangata katoa i roto; kihai i mahue i a ia tetahi morehu i reira; heoi peratia ana e ia te kingi o reira me tana i mea ai ki te kingi o Heriko.
And the LORD also delivered that city and its king into the hand of Israel, and Joshua put all the people to the sword, leaving no survivors. And he did to the king of Libnah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
31 Na haere atu ana a Hohua i Ripina, ratou tahi ko Iharaira katoa, ki Rakihi, a whakapaea ana a reira, tauria ana e ia:
And Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Libnah to Lachish. They laid siege to it and fought against it.
32 A i homai e Ihowa a Rakihi ki te ringa o Iharaira, a horo ana a reira i a ia i te rua o nga ra; patua iho hoki ki te mata o te hoari, me nga tangata katoa i roto; i rite tonu ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ia ki Ripina.
And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, and Joshua captured it on the second day. He put all the people to the sword, just as he had done to Libnah.
33 I reira ano ka haere mai a Horama kingi o Ketere hei awhina mo Rakihi; a patua iho ia me tona iwi e Hohua, a kahore rawa tetahi morehu ona i toe.
At that time Horam king of Gezer went to help Lachish, but Joshua struck him down along with his people, leaving no survivors.
34 Na ka haere atu a Hohua ratou tahi ko Iharaira katoa i Rakihi ki Ekerona; a whakapaea ana a reira e ratou, tauria ana:
So Joshua moved on from Lachish to Eglon, and all Israel with him. They laid siege to it and fought against it.
35 Na horo ana a reira i a ratou i taua rangi ano, patua ana hoki ki te mata o te hoari, ko nga tangata katoa i roto huna iho e ia i taua rangi ano, rite tonu ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ia ki Rakihi.
That day they captured Eglon and put it to the sword, and Joshua devoted to destruction everyone in the city, just as he had done to Lachish.
36 Na haere atu ana a Hohua i Ekerona, me Iharaira katoa ano hoki ki Heperona, a tauria ana a reira e ia.
Then Joshua and all Israel with him went up from Eglon to Hebron and fought against it.
37 A horo ana i a ratou a reira, patua iho hoki ki te mata o te hoari, me tona kingi, me ona pa katoa, me nga tangata katoa i roto; kahore tetahi morehu i mahue i a ia, rite tonu ki nga mea katoa i mea ai ia ki Ekerona; na huna iho e ia a reira, me nga tangata katoa i roto.
They captured it and put to the sword its king, all its villages, and all the people. Joshua left no survivors, just as he had done at Eglon; he devoted to destruction Hebron and everyone in it.
38 Katahi ka hoki a Hohua ratou tahi ko Iharaira katoa ki Repiri; ka tatau hoki ki reira.
Finally Joshua and all Israel with him turned toward Debir and fought against it.
39 A riro ana i a ia a reira me tona kingi, me ona pa katoa; a patua iho e ratou ki te mata o te hoari, whakangaromia katoatia ana hoki nga tangata i roto; kahore tetahi morehu i mahue i a ia: ko tana i mea ai ki Heperona i meatia ano e ia ki Repir i, ki tona kingi; i pera ano me tana i mea ai ki Ripina, ki tona kingi.
And they captured Debir, its king, and all its villages. They put them to the sword and devoted to destruction everyone in the city, leaving no survivors. Joshua did to Debir and its king as he had done to Hebron and as he had done to Libnah and its king.
40 Na patua ana e Hohua te whenua katoa, te whenua pukepuke, te tonga, te mania me nga pukenga wai, me nga kingi katoa hoki o reira; kahore i waiho e ia tetahi morehu: engari i huna katoatia e ia nga mea whai manawa, i rite tonu ki ta Ihowa, ki ta te Atua o Iharaira, i whakahau ai.
So Joshua conquered the whole region—the hill country, the Negev, the foothills, and the slopes, together with all their kings—leaving no survivors. He devoted to destruction everything that breathed, just as the LORD, the God of Israel, had commanded.
41 Na patua ana ratou e Hohua i Kareheparenea a tae noa ki Kaha, me te whenua katoa hoki o Kohena a tae noa ki Kipeono.
Joshua conquered the area from Kadesh-barnea to Gaza, and the whole region of Goshen as far as Gibeon.
42 Ko enei kingi katoa me to ratou oneone i riro i a Hohua i te whakaekenga kotahi, no te mea i roto i a Iharaira a Ihowa e whawhai atu ana.
And because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel, Joshua captured all these kings and their land in one campaign.
43 Na hoki ana a Hohua ratou tahi ko Iharaira katoa ki te puni, ki Kirikara.
Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.
