UJoshuwa 14
1 Lala ngamazwe abantwana bakoIsrayeli abawadla abe yilifa elizweni leKhanani, uEleyazare umpristi loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni lenhloko zaboyise bezizwe zabantwana bakoIsrayeli ababanika wona aba yilifa,
Esiae nye ale si woma Kanaanyigba si le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe ɣetoɖoƒe la na Israelviwoe. Nunɔla Eleazar kple Yosua, Nun ƒe vi kple Israel ƒe towo ƒe ƒomewo ƒe kplɔlawo ma anyigba la na ameawo.
2 ngenkatho yelifa labo, njengokulaya kweNkosi ngesandla sikaMozisi, ngezizwe eziyisificamunwemunye lengxenye yesizwe.
Abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na Mose ene la, woda akɔ hena anyigba si le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe ɣetoɖoƒe la mama ɖe Israel ƒe to asiekɛ kple afã mamlɛawo dome.
3 Ngoba uMozisi wayesenike ilifa izizwe ezimbili lengxenye yesizwe ngaphetsheya kweJordani; kodwa kumaLevi kanikanga ilifa phakathi kwazo.
Mose tsɔ to eve kple afã ƒe domenyinu na wo le Yɔdan tɔsisi la ƒe ɣedzeƒe, ke mena domenyinu aɖeke Levitɔwo ɖe ame bubuawo dome o,
4 Ngoba abantwana bakoJosefa babeyizizwe ezimbili, uManase loEfrayimi. Njalo kabawanikanga amaLevi isabelo elizweni, ngaphandle kwemizi yokuhlala, lamadlelo ayo ezifuyo zabo lempahla zabo.
elabena Yosef ƒe viwo va zu to eve, siwo nye Manase kple Efraim. Womema anyigba na Levitɔwo o, ke boŋ du siwo me woanɔ kple lãnyiƒewo ko wona wo.
5 Njengokulaya kweNkosi kuMozisi, abantwana bakoIsrayeli benza njalo, balaba ilizwe.
Ale wowɔ se si Yehowa de na Mose la dzi pɛpɛpɛ le anyigba la mama me.
6 Khona abantwana bakoJuda basondela kuJoshuwa eGiligali; uKalebi indodana kaJefune umKenizi wasesithi kuye: Wena uyalazi ilizwi iNkosi eyalikhuluma kuMozisi umuntu kaNkulunkulu mayelana lawe lamayelana lami eKadeshi-Bhaneya.
Kaleb nɔ ŋgɔ na ame dɔdɔ aɖewo tso Yuda ƒe to la me, eye wova Yosua gbɔ le Gilgal. Kaleb Kenizitɔ gblɔ na Yosua be, “Èɖo ŋku nya si Yehowa gblɔ na Mose tso nye kple wò ŋu esime míenɔ Kades Barnea la dzia?
7 Ngangileminyaka engamatshumi amane lapho uMozisi inceku yeNkosi ingithuma ngisuka eKadeshi-Bhaneya ukuhlola ilizwe. Ngasengibuyisela kuye umbiko njengokusenhliziyweni yami.
Mexɔ ƒe blaene ɣe ma ɣi. Mose dɔ mí tso Kades Barnea be míatsa ŋku le Kanaanyigba la dzi. Esi míegbɔ la, megblɔ nu si mekpɔ tututu la nɛ,
8 Kodwa abazalwane bami ababenyuke lami benza inhliziyo zabantu zancibilika; kodwa mina ngayilandela ngokupheleleyo iNkosi uNkulunkulu wami.
ke nɔvinye ŋkutsala bubuawo ya do vɔvɔ̃ na ameawo, eye woɖe dzi le wo ƒo dzodzro le Ŋugbedodonyigba la dzi yiyi ŋu. Zi ale si menɔ Yehowa, nye Mawu, yome ta la,
9 UMozisi wasefunga mhlalokho esithi: Isibili umhlaba olunyathele kuwo unyawo lwakho uzakuba ngowakho ube yilifa, lebantwaneni bakho kuze kube nininini, ngoba uyilandele ngokupheleleyo iNkosi uNkulunkulu wami.
Mose gblɔ nam be, ‘Kanaanyigba la ƒe akpa si dzi miele la, azu wò kple wò dzidzimeviwo tɔ tegbetegbe.’
10 Khathesi-ke khangela, iNkosi ingilondoloze ngiphila njengokutsho kwayo okwale iminyaka engamatshumi amane lanhlanu, kusukela esikhathini iNkosi eyakhuluma ngaso lelilizwi kuMozisi, uIsrayeli esahamba enkangala. Khathesi-ke khangela, lamuhla ngileminyaka engamatshumi ayisificaminwembili lanhlanu.
“Abe ale si wò ŋutɔ nènya ene la, Yehowa lé agbe ɖe te nam, eye wòna lãmesesẽm tso ɣe ma ɣi va se ɖe fifia, le ƒe blaene-vɔ-atɔ̃ siawo me, tso esime míetsa tsaglalã le gbedzi. Egbe la, mexɔ ƒe blaenyi-vɔ-atɔ̃,
11 Ngisaqinile lalamuhla njengasosukwini uMozisi angithuma ngalo. Njengamandla ami ngalesosikhathi, asenjalo amandla ami khathesi, awempi lawokuphuma lawokungena.
gake ŋusẽ le ŋunye fifia abe ale si menɔ esime Mose ɖo mí ɖe ŋkutsaƒe ene. Magate ŋu azɔ mɔ, awɔ aʋa fifia abe ɣe ma ɣi ene,
12 Ngakho-ke nginika lintaba iNkosi eyakhuluma ngayo ngalolosuku, ngoba wena wezwa mhlalokho ukuthi amaAnaki ayekhona lapho lemizi emikhulu ebiyelwe ngemithangala. Aluba iNkosi ilami, ngizawaxotsha elifeni, njengokutsho kweNkosi.
eya ta mele bia wòm be nàtsɔ tonyigba si ŋugbe Yehowa do nam la nam. Èɖo ŋku edzi be le míaƒe ŋkutsatsa me la, míekpɔ Anakviwo wonɔ du gã siwo woɖo gli ƒo xlãe la me. Ke ne Yehowa li kplim la, manya wo ɖa le anyigba la dzi.”
13 UJoshuwa wasembusisa wanika uKalebi indodana kaJefune iHebroni ibe yilifa.
Yosua yra Kaleb, Yefune vi, eye wòtsɔ Hebron du la nɛ abe eƒe domenyinu ene.
14 Ngalokho-ke iHebroni yaba ngekaKalebi indodana kaJefune umKenizi yaba yilifa kuze kube lamuhla, ngoba wayilandela ngokupheleleyo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli.
Hebron ganye Kaleb, si nye Yefune, ame si hã nye Kenizitɔ la ƒe vi ƒe dzidzimeviwo tɔ va se ɖe egbe, elabena Kaleb ɖo to Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la.
15 Lebizo leHebroni kuqala laliyiKiriyathi-Arba, owayengumuntu omkhulu phakathi kwamaAnaki. Ilizwe laseliphumula empini.
Wotsɔ Anakitɔwo ƒe ame xɔŋkɔ aɖe ƒe ŋkɔ na Hebron, eya ta woyɔnɛ tsã be, Kiriat Arba. Tso esime Israelviwo xɔ anyigba la, eye wonɔ edzi ko la, afi ma tɔwo megaho aʋa ɖe wo ŋu kpɔ o.
