Hohua 11
1 Na, i te rongonga o Ihapini kingi o Hatoro, ka tono tangata ia ki a Iopapa kingi o Marono, ki te kingi o Himirono, ki te kingi hoki o Akahapa,
When Jabin king of Hazor heard of it, he sent to Jobab king of Madon, to the king of Shimron, to the king of Achshaph,
2 Ki nga kingi ano hoki i te raki, ki era i nga maunga, i te mania hoki ki te tonga o Kinerota, i te whenua raorao, a i nga hiwi o Roro ki te hauauru,
and to the kings who were on the north, in the hill country, in the Arabah south of Chinneroth, in the lowland, and in the heights of Dor on the west,
3 Ki te Kanaani i te rawhiti me te hauauru, ki te Amori, ki te Hiti, ki te Perihi, ki te Iepuhi i te whenua pukepuke, ki te Hiwi hoki i raro o Heremona i te whenua o Mihipa.
to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite in the hill country, and the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.
4 Na ka haere mai, me a ratou ope katoa, he tini te tangata, me te onepu i te taha o te moana te tokomaha, me nga hoiho, me nga hariata, tona tini.
They went out, they and all their armies with them, many people, even as the sand that is on the seashore in multitude, with very many horses and chariots.
5 Na ka huihui enei kingi katoa; a ka haere mai ratou, ka noho huihui ki nga wai o Meromo, ki te whawhai ki a Iharaira.
All these kings met together; and they came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.
6 Na ko te meatanga a Ihowa ki a Hohua, Kei wehi i a ratou: kia penei hoki apopo ka hoatu katoa ratou e ahau, mate rawa, ki a Iharaira: me whakangonge a ratou hoiho, me tahu hoki a ratou hariata ki te ahi.
The LORD said to Joshua, “Don’t be afraid because of them; for tomorrow at this time, I will deliver them up all slain before Israel. You shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire.”
7 Na huakina tatatia ana ratou e Hohua ratou ko te hunga hapai pakanga katoa ki nga wai o Meromo; heoi kokiri ana ratou ki a ratou.
So Joshua came suddenly, with all the warriors, against them by the waters of Merom, and attacked them.
8 Na homai ana ratou e Ihowa ki te ringa o Iharaira, a patua iho ratou, a whaia ana e ratou a tae noa ki Hairona nui, ki Mihirepoto Maimi, ki te raorao hoki o Mihipe whaka te rawhiti; a patupatua ana ratou, kahore rawa he morehu i waiho kia toe.
The LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, and they struck them, and chased them to great Sidon, and to Misrephoth Maim, and to the valley of Mizpah eastward. They struck them until they left them no one remaining.
9 A rite tonu ta Hohua i mea ai ki a ratou ki ta Ihowa i korero ai ki a ia: i whakangongea e ia a ratou hoiho, i tahuna hoki a ratou hariata ki te ahi.
Joshua did to them as the LORD told him. He hamstrung their horses and burnt their chariots with fire.
10 A i taua wa ka tahuri a Hohua, a horo ana i a ia a Hatoro, patua iho hoki e ia tona kingi ki te hoari: ko Hatoro hoki te upoko o aua kingitanga katoa i mua.
Joshua turned back at that time, and took Hazor, and struck its king with the sword; for Hazor used to be the head of all those kingdoms.
11 Na patua iho e ratou nga mea ora katoa o reira ki te mata o te hoari a poto noa: kahore i mahue tetahi mea whai manawa: i tahuna hoki e ia a Hatoro ki te ahi.
They struck all the souls who were in it with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them. There was no one left who breathed. He burnt Hazor with fire.
12 Na i riro katoa i a Hohua nga pa katoa o era kingi, me nga kingi katoa o reira, a patua iho e ia ki te mata o te hoari a poto noa; i pera ano ia me ta Mohi, me ta te pononga a Ihowa i whakahau ai.
Joshua captured all the cities of those kings, with their kings, and he struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.
13 Ko nga pa ia i tu i runga i nga pukepuke, kihai ena i tahuna e Iharaira, heoi ano ko Hatoro anake; i tahuna tena e Hohua.
But as for the cities that stood on their mounds, Israel burnt none of them, except Hazor only. Joshua burnt that.
14 Otiia ko nga taonga parakete katoa o aua pa, me nga kararehe, i tangohia e nga tama a Iharaira ma ratou; ko nga tangata katoa ia i patua ki te mata o te hoari a poto noa ratou, kihai i mahue tetahi mea whai manawa.
The children of Israel took all the plunder of these cities, with the livestock, as plunder for themselves; but every man they struck with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them. They didn’t leave any who breathed.
15 Ko ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki tana pononga ki a Mohi, ko ta Mohi ano tera i whakahau ai ki a Hohua; a koia ta Hohua i mea ai; kihai i kapea e ia tetahi o nga mea katoa i whakahaua e Ihowa ki a Mohi.
As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua. Joshua did so. He left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.
16 Na riro ana i a Hohua taua whenua katoa, te whenua pukepuke, me nga wahi katoa o te tonga, me te whenua katoa o Kohena, me te raorao, me te mania, me te whenua pukepuke o Iharaira, me tona raorao;
So Joshua captured all that land, the hill country, all the South, all the land of Goshen, the lowland, the Arabah, the hill country of Israel, and the lowland of the same,
17 Atu i Maunga Haraka, e anga nei whakarunga ki Heira, a tae noa ki Paarakara i te raorao o Repanona, i raro iho o Maunga Heremona: a, ko o ratou kingi katoa, i mau i a ia, a patua iho, whakamatea iho.
from Mount Halak, that goes up to Seir, even to Baal Gad in the valley of Lebanon under Mount Hermon. He took all their kings, struck them, and put them to death.
18 He maha nga ra i whawhai ai a Hohua ki aua kingi katoa.
Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.
19 Na kahore he pa i hohou rongo ki nga tama a Iharaira, heoi anake ko nga Hiwi i noho i Kipeono: i riro katoa i a ratou i runga i te whawhai.
There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, except the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon. They took all in battle.
20 Na Ihowa hoki i whakapakeke o ratou ngakau, kia turia ai e ratou a Iharaira ki te riri, kia tino whakangaromia ai ratou e ia, kia kore ai hoki ratou e tohungia, engari kia whakangaromia ratou e ia, kia peratia me ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a Mohi.
For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, to come against Israel in battle, that he might utterly destroy them, that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.
21 I taua wa ano ka haere atu a Hohua, a huna iho e ia nga Anakimi o nga maunga, o Heperona, o Repiri, o Anapa, o nga maunga katoa o Hura, o nga maunga katoa ano hoki o Iharaira: i tino whakangaromia rawatia ratou e Hohua me o ratou pa.
Joshua came at that time, and cut off the Anakim from the hill country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel. Joshua utterly destroyed them with their cities.
22 Kihai tetahi o nga Anakimi i mahue i te whenua o nga tama a Iharaira: toe ake ko etahi anake i Kaha, i Kata, i Aharoro.
There were none of the Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel. Only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, did some remain.
23 Na ka riro i a Hohua te whenua katoa, ka pera me nga mea katoa i korerotia e Ihowa ki a Mohi; a hoatu ana e Hohua hei kainga tupu mo Iharaira, he mea whakarite ki o ratou wehenga, ki o ratou iwi. Na ka takoto marie te whenua i te whawhai.
So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD spoke to Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. Then the land had rest from war.
