UJoshuwa 5
1 Kwasekusithi lapho wonke amakhosi amaAmori ayenganeno kweJordani ngentshonalanga lawo wonke amakhosi amaKhanani ayengaselwandle esizwa ukuthi iNkosi yenza amanzi eJordani atsha ngaphambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli saze sachapha, inhliziyo yawo yancibilika, kakusabanga khona moya kiwo, ngenxa yabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
Tokosra nukewa lun mwet Amor su muta roto liki Infacl Jordan, ac tokosra nukewa lun mwet Canaan su muta sisken Meoa Mediterranean elos lohng lah LEUM GOD El akpaoyela Infacl Jordan nwe ke na mwet Israel elos fahsr sasla. Elos mutawauk in sangeng ac insialos foroti ke sripen mwet Israel ah.
2 Ngalesosikhathi iNkosi yathi kuJoshuwa: Zenzele ingqamu zensengetshe, ubasoke futhi abantwana bakoIsrayeli okwesibili.
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Orala kutu mitmit kosroh an ke eot keke, ac sifil sang kosrala mwet Israel.”
3 UJoshuwa wasezenzela ingqamu zensengetshe, wabasoka abantwana bakoIsrayeli oqaqeni lwamajwabu aphambili.
Na Joshua el oru oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel, ac el kosrala mwet Israel in sie acn pangpang Fineol in Kosrala.
4 Njalo yilesisizatho uJoshuwa abasokela sona; bonke abantu abaphuma eGibhithe, abesilisa, amadoda wonke empi, afela enkangala endleleni esephumile eGibhithe.
Pa inge sripa se sis Joshua el kosralosla, mweyen mukul nukewa ma fal matwalos in wi mweun ke elos illa liki Egypt, elos misa tari.
5 Ngoba bonke abantu abaphumayo babesokiwe, kodwa bonke abantu ababezalelwe enkangala endleleni sebephumile eGibhithe babengabasokanga.
Mukul nukewa ma wi illa liki acn Egypt, elos kosrkosrla tari, ac mukul nukewa ma tufah isusla tukun illa sac, elos nukewa soenna kosrla.
6 Ngoba abantwana bakoIsrayeli bahamba enkangala iminyaka engamatshumi amane saze sabhubha isizwe sonke samadoda empi ayephume eGibhithe, ngoba engalilalelanga ilizwi leNkosi; iNkosi eyayifungile kuwo ukuthi kayiyikuwatshengisa ilizwe iNkosi eyayifungele oyise ukusinika lona, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju.
Mwet Israel elos tuh forfor yen mwesis ke yac angngaul, nwe ke mwet mweun ma wi illa liki acn Egypt ah nufon misa ke sripen elos tia akos LEUM GOD. LEUM GOD El tuh wulela nu sin papa matu tumasr meet lah El ac ase nu sesr sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, tuh ke sripen seakos lalos uh LEUM GOD El fulahk nu selos tuh elos ac fah tia sun facl sac.
7 Labantwana bawo yabavusa esikhundleni sawo; bona uJoshuwa wabasoka, ngoba babengasokwanga, ngoba babengabasokanga endleleni.
Tulik natulos su soenna kosrala pa fwil sasu se ma Joshua el kosrala uh.
8 Kwasekusithi sebeqedile ukusoka isizwe sonke, bahlala endaweni yabo enkambeni baze baphola.
Ac tukun mwet nukewa kosrkosrla tari, elos mutana in lohm nuknuk selos nwe ke na kinet kaclos ah mahla.
9 INkosi yasisithi kuJoshuwa: Lamuhla ngigiqile ngasusa kini ihlazo leGibhithe. Ngakho ibizo laleyondawo lathiwa yiGiligali kuze kube lamuhla.
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Misenge nga sisla liki kowos mwe mwekin lowos ke kowos tuh moul in mwet kohs in acn Egypt.” Pa inge sripa se sis pangpang acn sac Gilgal, ac ine se inge srakna orekmakinyuk nwe misenge.
10 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebemisa inkamba eGiligali, bagcina iphasika ngosuku lwetshumi lane lwenyanga kusihlwa emagcekeni eJeriko.
Ke eku in len se aksingoul akosr ke malem sac, ke mwet Israel elos srakna muta in acn tupasrpasr apkuran nu Jericho, elos oru Kufwen Alukela in lohm nuknuk selos.
11 Basebesidla izithelo zelizwe, ngekuseni eyalandela iphasika, izinkwa ezingelamvubelo lamabele akhanzingiweyo, ngalona lolosuku.
In len tok ah, pa inge len se emeet elos mutawauk mongo ke fokin acn Canaan. Ma elos kang pa bread wangin mwe pulol kac, ac fiten wheat manman.
12 Imana yacina ngelanga elalandela abadla ngalo izithelo zelizwe; labantwana bakoIsrayeli kabasabanga lemana, kodwa badla izithelo zelizwe leKhanani ngalowomnyaka.
In len sac me manna tia sifil sikyak, ac mwet Israel elos mongo ke fokin acn Canaan.
13 Kwasekusithi uJoshuwa eseJeriko, waphakamisa amehlo akhe wabona, khangela-ke, indoda imi maqondana laye ilenkemba yayo ehwatshiweyo isesandleni sayo. UJoshuwa wasesiya kuyo wathi kuyo: Ungowakithi yini, kumbe ungowezitha zethu?
Ke Joshua el apkuran nu Jericho, el ngetak ac liye mwet se tu ye mutal, ac cutlass natul fwafeyak inpaol. Joshua el kalukyang nu yorol ac fahk, “Ya kom sie sesr, ku kom mwet lokoalok lasr?”
14 Wasesithi: Hatshi; kodwa ngiyinduna yebutho leNkosi; sengibuyile. UJoshuwa wasesithi mbo ngobuso bakhe emhlabathini, wakhonza esithi kuye: INkosi yami ithini encekwini yayo?
Ac mwet sac fahk, “Nga tia wi kewa. Nga pa captain lun un mwet mweun lun LEUM GOD.” Na Joshua el putati nu infohk uh ac alu nu sel ac fahk, “Nga mwet kulansap lom. Mea kom lungse nga in oru?”
15 Induna yebutho leNkosi yasisithi kuJoshuwa: Khulula inyathela lakho enyaweni lwakho, ngoba indawo omi kiyo ingcwele. UJoshuwa wasesenza njalo.
Na captain lun un mwet mweun lun LEUM GOD el fahk nu sel, “Sarukla fahluk lom an, tuh acn se kom tu we an acn mutal se.” Na Joshua el oru oana ma el fahk ah.
