< UJoshuwa 11 >
1 Kwathi uJabhini inkosi yeHazori isizwa lokhu yathumela ilizwi kuJobhabhi inkosi yeMadoni lasemakhosini eShimroni le-Akhishafi,
Bere a Hasorhene Yabin tee asɛm a asi no, ɔtoo ahemfo a wodidi so yi nkra denneennen: Madonhene Yobab, Simronhene ne Aksafhene;
2 lasemakhosini enyakatho ayesezintabeni ze-Arabha eningizimu yeKhinerethi emawatheni amaqaqa entshonalanga kanye laseNafothi Dori entshonalanga;
ahemfo a wɔwɔ atifi fam mmepɔw so, ahemfo a wɔwɔ Yordan Bon a ɛda Galilea anafo fam; ahemfo a wɔwɔ atɔe fam nkoko so; ahemfo a wɔwɔ Nafɔt Dor atɔe fam;
3 lakumaKhenani empumalanga lentshonalanga; lakuma-Amori, amaHithi, amaPherizi lamaJebusi elizweni elilamaqaqa; kanye lakumaHivi ngaphansi kweHemoni esabelweni seMizipha.
Kanaan ahemfo a wɔwɔ apuei ne atɔe; Amorifo ahemfo ne Hetifo ahemfo ne Perisifo ahemfo ne ahemfo a wɔwɔ Yebusifo mmepɔw asase so; ne Hewifo a wɔwɔ nkurow a ɛwɔ Hermon bepɔw ase wɔ Mispa asase so.
4 Baphuma lamabutho abo wonke lenani elikhulu lamabhiza lezinqola, ibutho elikhulu, ubunengi lingangetshebetshebe okhunjini lolwandle.
Saa ahemfo yi nyinaa gyee pene, boaboaa wɔn nsraadɔm ano sɛ wɔbɛka abɔ mu ako atia Israel. Wɔn nsraadɔm no nyinaa apɔnkɔ dodow ne nteaseɛnam yɛɛ asase no so ma te sɛ mpoano nwea.
5 Wonke amakhosi la abambana asesakha izihonqo ndawonye eManzini aseMeromi, ukulwa labako-Israyeli.
Wɔbɔɔ wɔn atenae wɔ asu a ɛbɛn Merom ho sɛ wɔrebɛko atia Israel.
6 UThixo wathi kuJoshuwa, “Ungabesabi, ngoba ngalesisikhathi kusasa ngizabanikela bonke kwabako-Israyeli sebefile. Uzaquma imisipha yamabhiza abo njalo utshise izihonqo zabo.”
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua se, “Nsuro wɔn. Ɔkyena sesɛɛ bere mu na wɔn nyinaa atotɔ. Bubu wɔn apɔnkɔ no nan na hyew wɔn nteaseɛnam no.”
7 Ngakho uJoshuwa lebutho lakhe lonke bahlangana labo mathupha eManzini eMeromi wasebahlasela,
Na Yosua ne nʼakofo kɔɔ Merom asu no ho kɔtow hyɛɛ wɔn so mpofirim.
8 uThixo wabanikela esandleni sika-Israyeli. Babanqoba, baxotshana labo baze babafikisa eSidoni Enkulu kusiya eMisirefothi-Mayimi, leSigodini seMizipha empumalanga kwaze kwasala kungelamuntu ophilayo.
Na Awurade ma wodii wɔn atamfo no so nkonim. Israelfo no taa wɔn ara kosii Sidon Kɛse ne Misrefot-Maim ho ne Mispa Bon no mu wɔ apuei fam, kosii sɛ atamfo no akofo baako mpo anka.
9 UJoshuwa wenza kibo lokho ayekulaywe nguThixo: Waquma imisipha yamabhiza abo njalo watshisa izinqola zabo.
Ɛnna Yosua bubuu apɔnkɔ no anan, san hyew nteaseɛnam no sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn no.
10 Ngalesosikhathi uJoshuwa waphenduka wabuyela emuva wathumba iHazori wasehlasela inkosi yakuleyo ndawo ngenkemba. (IHazori yayiyisigodlo sayo yonke imibuso leyo.)
Yosua san nʼakyi begyee Hasor kurow no fae, kum ɛhɔ hene. (Na anka Hasor yɛ saa ahemman nkabom no nyinaa kuropɔn.)
11 Wonke umuntu owayephakathi kwayo wabhujiswa ngenkemba. Bababhubhisa baphela, abaze batshiya lutho oluphefumulayo, watshisa iHazori ngokwayo.
Israelfo no sɛee biribiara a nkwa wɔ mu wɔ kuropɔn no so. Wɔannya ɔkra fua mpo. Na Yosua too Hasor kuropɔn no mu gya.
12 UJoshuwa wathumba wonke amadolobho esikhosini lamakhosi awo wawahlasela ngenkemba. Wawabhubhisa wonke, njengokulaya kukaMosi inceku kaThixo.
Yosua kunkum ahemfo a wɔaka no nyinaa ne wɔn manfo sɛee wɔn pasaa sɛnea Mose, Awurade somfo, hyɛe no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
13 Kukanti-ke u-Israyeli kazange atshise loba yiwaphi amadolobho ayakhelwe emadundulwini ngaphandle kweHazori, eyatshiswa nguJoshuwa.
Mmom, Yosua anhyew kuropɔn biara a esi siw so gye Hasor.
14 Abako-Israyeli bathatha zaba ngezabo zonke impahla ababezithumbile okwakugoqela izifuyo zamadolobho la bahamba lakho kodwa bonke abantu bababhubhisa ngenkemba baphela du, bengatshiyi lutho oluphefumulayo.
Na Israelfo no faa asade ne anantwi a wɔwɔ nkurow mmubui no mu nanso wokum emu nnipa no nyinaa.
15 Njengoba uThixo walaya inceku yakhe uMosi, uMosi laye walaya uJoshuwa, uJoshuwa wakwenza lokho: katshiyanga lutho lungenziwanga ezintweni zonke uThixo owazilaya uMosi.
Sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ ne somfo Mose no, saa ara na Mose nso hyɛɛ Yosua. Na Yosua nso yɛɛ sɛnea wɔka kyerɛɛ no no, dii nea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no nyinaa so.
16 Ngakho uJoshuwa wathatha ilizwe lonke: ilizwe lamaqaqa, yonke iNegebi, isabelo sonke seGosheni, amawatha asentshonalanga, i-Arabha, lezintaba zako-Israyeli lamawatha azo,
Enti Yosua ko gyee ɔmantam no nyinaa a ɛyɛ mmepɔw man, Negeb, Gosen asase, atɔe fam nkoko, Yordan Bon, Israel mmepɔw ne nsase tataw fae.
17 kusukela entabeni yeHalakhi, ephakama ngokuya eSeyiri, kusiya eBhali-Gadi esiGodini seLebhanoni ngaphansi kwentaba iHemoni. Wathumba wonke amakhosi awo, wawehlula, wawabulala.
Enti afei, Israel nsase bɛyɛɛ nea efi Halak bepɔw a ekosi Seir wɔ atifi fam toa so kɔ Baal-Gad a ɛwɔ Bepɔw Hermon ase wɔ Lebanon bon mu. Yosua kunkum nsase no so ahemfo nyinaa,
18 UJoshuwa walwa impi lawo wonke amakhosi okwesikhathi eside.
wɔ mmere tenten akokoakoko mu.
19 Ngaphandle kwamaHivi ayehlala eGibhiyoni, kalikho idolobho loba elilodwa elenza isivumelwano sokuthula labako-Israyeli, kwabawathumba empini.
Kurow biara nni ɔmantam yi mu a ɔne Israelfo yɛɛ asomdwoe apam gye sɛ Hewifo a wɔte Gibeon no. Wodii wɔn a aka no nyinaa so nkonim.
20 Ngoba kwakunguThixo owenza inhliziyo zawo zaba lukhuni zafuna ukulwa impi lo-Israyeli, ukwenzela ukuthi enelise ukubachitha baphele, ebabhubhisa okungelazwelo, njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
Awurade pirim wɔn koma ma wɔko tiaa Israelfo wɔ bere a anka ɛsɛ sɛ wɔ ne wɔn yɛ asomdwoe nhyehyɛe. Enti wɔsɛee wɔn pasaa a ahummɔbɔ biara nni mu sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
21 Ngalesosikhathi uJoshuwa waphuma wawabhubhisa ama-Anakhi elizweni lamaqaqa: kusukela eHebhroni, eDebhiri le-Anabhi, kusukela elizweni lonke lamaqaqa akoJuda. UJoshuwa wabhubhisa wababhuqa bona kanye lamadolobho abo.
Saa bere no mu, Yosua tɔree Anak asefo a na wɔte bepɔw nkurow Hebron, Debir, Anab ne bepɔw man Yuda ne Israel nyinaa ase. Okum wɔn nyinaa na ɔsɛee wɔn nkurow no pasaa.
22 Akula ma-Anakhi asala esabelweni sabako-Israyeli; ngaphandle kweGaza iGathi le-Ashidodi lapho okwasila abanye bakhona.
Wɔn mu ɔbaako koraa anka wɔ Israel asase so, mmom, wɔn mu bi kaa Gasa, Gat ne Asdod.
23 Ngakho uJoshuwa wathumba ilizwe lonke njengoba uThixo walaya uMosi, waselinika abako-Israyeli njengelifa kusiya ngokwahlukaniswa kwezizwana zabo. Ngakho-ke ilizwe laphumula ekulweni izimpi.
Enti Yosua faa asase no nyinaa sɛnea Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no. Ɔde maa Israelfo sɛ wɔn agyapade sononko kyekyɛɛ mu maa mmusuakuw no. Enti awiei no asase no so dwoe.
