< UJoshuwa 7 >

1 Kodwa abantwana bakoIsrayeli baphambuka ngesiphambeko ngokuqalekisiweyo. Ngoba uAkani indodana kaKarmi indodana kaZabidi indodana kaZera owesizwe sakoJuda wathatha kokuqalekisiweyo; ulaka lweNkosi lwaselubavuthela abantwana bakoIsrayeli.
LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sin mwet Israel tuh elos in tia eis kutena ma liki acn Jericho, a elos in kunausla ma nukewa we. Tusruktu Achan, wen natul Carmi, su ma natul Zabdi in sou lal Zerah ke sruf lal Judah, el tia akos. Ke ma inge LEUM GOD El kasrkusrak sin mwet Israel ke sripen seakos lal Achan.
2 UJoshuwa wasethuma abantu besuka eJeriko besiya eAyi eliseduze leBeti-Aveni empumalanga kweBhetheli, wakhuluma kibo esithi: Yenyukani liyehlola ilizwe. Abantu basebesenyuka bayihlola iAyi.
Joshua el supwala mwet ekasr Jericho lac nu Ai, su oan kutulap in acn Bethel sisken Bethaven, ac sapkin tuh elos in utyak ac kalngei in siti sac.
3 Basebebuyela kuJoshuwa bathi kuye: Kakungenyuki bonke abantu; kakwenyuke phose amadoda azinkulungwane ezimbili loba phose amadoda azinkulungwane ezintathu ukutshaya iAyi. Ungadinisi bonke abantu ngokuya khona, ngoba balutshwana.
Ke elos foloko elos fahk nu sel Joshua, “Tia enenu mwet pus in som mweuni acn sac. Lela tausin luo ku tolu na in som mweun, mweyen siti na srisrik se.”
4 Kwasekusenyukela khona abavela ebantwini amadoda aphosa abe zinkulungwane ezintathu; abaleka phambi kwamadoda eAyi.
Akuran tausin tolu na mwet Israel pa som mweun, tusruktu elos kuf.
5 Lamadoda eAyi atshaya phose amadoda angamatshumi amathathu lesithupha, axotshana lawo phambi kwesango aze afika eShebarimi, awatshayela ekwehleni. Ngakho inhliziyo yabantu yancibilika yaba ngamanzi.
Mwet Ai inge elos ukwe mwet Israel, mutawauk na e mutunpot lalos ah me nu nien fokfok eot. Elos uniya mwet tolngoul onkosr ke elos oatui fineol uh. Ke sripa se inge mwet Israel elos arulana sangeng ac munasla nunkalos.
6 UJoshuwa wasedabula izigqoko zakhe, wathi mbo ngobuso emhlabathini phambi komtshokotsho weNkosi kwaze kwahlwa, yena labadala bakoIsrayeli, bathela uthuli emakhanda abo.
Joshua ac mwet kol lun Israel elos salik nuknuk lalos ac filiya kutkut nu fin sifalos in akkalemye asor ac lalo lalos. Elos faksufi nu infohk uh sisken Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD nwe ke ekela.
7 UJoshuwa wasesithi: Maye Nkosi Jehova! Ubachaphiseleni lokubachaphisa lababantu iJordani ukusinikela esandleni samaAmori ukusibhubhisa? Kungathi ngabe seneliswa sahlala ngaphetsheya kweJordani!
Ac Joshua el fahk, “O LEUM GOD Fulat, efu ku kom uskutme liki lefahlyat Jordan ac eiskutyang nu inpoun mwet Amor tuh elos in kunauskutla? Efu kut ku tia mutana lefahlyat Jordan?
8 O Nkosi, ngizakuthini, emva kokuthi uIsrayeli esephendule intamo ezitheni zakhe?
O Leum, mea nga ac fahk, ke mwet Israel elos forla inge ac kaing liki mwet lokoalok lalos?
9 Ngoba amaKhanani labo bonke abakhileyo elizweni bazakuzwa, basihanqe, baliqume ibizo lethu lisuke emhlabeni. Pho, uzalenzelani ibizo lakho elikhulu?
Mwet Canaan ac mwet nukewa in facl se inge elos fin lohng ke ma inge, na elos ac fah raunikutla ac unikutla nukewa! Mea kom fah oru tuh Ine pwengpeng lom in tia pilesreyuk?”
10 INkosi yasisithi kuJoshuwa: Sukuma wena, uweleni kanje ngobuso bakho?
Ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Tukakek! Efu kom ku faksufi nu infohk uh ouingan?
11 UIsrayeli wonile; njalo baseqile isivumelwano sami engabalaya sona, bathethe futhi kokuqalekisiweyo, njalo bebile, baqamba amanga futhi, yebo bakubekile empahleni zabo.
Mwet Israel elos orekma koluk. Elos kunausla wulela luk su nga sapkin nu selos. Elos kikiap, ac pisrapasr, ac eis kutu ma tia lela in ituk, ac elos filiya ma inge inmasrlon ma lalos.
12 Ngalokho abantwana bakoIsrayeli babengelakuma phambi kwezitha zabo, baphendula umhlana phambi kwezitha zabo, ngoba beqalekisiwe. Kangisayikuba lani uba lingabhubhisi okuqalekisiweyo phakathi kwenu.
Pa inge sripa se ma oru mwet Israel ingan kuf ac kofla lain mwet lokoalok lalos an. Elos kaing lukelos mweyen elos sifacna oru tuh elos in kunausyukla. Nga ac fah tia sifil muta yuruwos kowos fin tia kunausla ma nga tia lela in oan yuruwos ingan.
13 Sukuma, ngcwelisa abantu, uthi: Zingcweliseleleni ikusasa; ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli: Kukhona okuqalekisiweyo phakathi kwakho, Israyeli; ungeke ume phambi kwezitha zakho lize likhuphe okuqalekisiweyo phakathi kwenu.
Tukakek! Akmutalye mwet uh ac sap elos in akola ac tuku nu ye mutuk lutu, tuh nga, LEUM GOD lun Israel fahk mu: ‘Israel, oasr ma inmasrlon ma lowos an su nga tuh fahk mu in kunausyukla! Kowos koflana lain mwet lokoalok lowos nwe ke na kowos sisla ma kowos pisrala ingan liki kowos!’
14 Ngakho ekuseni lizasondezwa ngezizwe zenu; kuzakuthi-ke isizwe iNkosi ezasibamba sizasondela ngensendo, losendo iNkosi ezalubamba luzasondela ngezindlu, lendlu iNkosi ezayibamba izasondela ngabantu.
Ke ma inge fahkang nu selos tuh ke lututang mwet nukewa in toeni ac muta in sruf. Ac sruf se su nga fah srisrngiya ac fah kalukyak nu meet, na muta in sou lulap. Ac sou lulap se su nga fah srisrngiya ac fah kalukyak nu meet, na muta in sou srisrik. Ac sou srisrik se su nga fah srisrngiya ac fah kalukyak nu meet, na kais sie mukul in sou sac fah kalukyak nu meet.
15 Kuzakuthi-ke lowo ozabanjwa lokuqalekisiweyo uzatshiswa ngomlilo, yena lakho konke alakho, ngoba eqe isivumelwano seNkosi, langoba enze ubuphukuphuku koIsrayeli.
Ac el su nga srisrngiya, ac koneyukyak ma inge yorol, el ac fah isisyak ke e wi sou lal ac ma lal nukewa, mweyen el oru mwe mwekin lulap nu sin mwet Israel ac kunausla wulela luk.”
16 UJoshuwa wasevuka ekuseni kakhulu, wenza uIsrayeli wasondela ngezizwe zakhe; lesizwe sakoJuda sabanjwa;
In lotu tok ah, Joshua el usani mwet Israel nukewa, ac elos mutangan sruf. Ac sruf lal Judah sulosolla.
17 wasesenza usendo lwakoJuda lusondele, wabamba usendo lwakoZera; wenza usendo lwakoZera lusondele ngabantu; uZabidi wasebanjwa;
El usak sruf lal Judah nu meet. Na sou lulap lal Zerah in sruf lal Judah sulosolla. Na elos usak sou lulap lal Zerah nu meet. Na sou lal Zabdi liki sou lulap lal Zerah sulosolla.
18 wasesenza indlu yakhe isondele ngabantu; uAkani, indodana kaKarmi, indodana kaZabidi, indodana kaZera, owesizwe sakoJuda, wasebanjwa.
Na el usak sou lal Zabdi nu meet, kais sie mukul, ac Achan wen natul Carmi, su ma natul Zabdi sulosolla.
19 UJoshuwa wasesithi kuAkani: Ndodana yami, ake unike iNkosi udumo, uNkulunkulu wakoIsrayeli, uvume kuye; ake ungitshele lokho okwenzileyo, ungangifihleli.
Na Joshua el fahk nu sel, “Wen nutik, fahkkomyak nu sik ke kas pwaye ye mutun LEUM GOD lun Israel, ac fahkak ma kom oru inge. Nikmet okanla likiyu.”
20 UAkani wasephendula uJoshuwa wathi: Isibili mina ngonile eNkosini, uNkulunkulu wakoIsrayeli. Ngokunje langokunje ngikwenzile.
Achan el topuk nu sel Joshua ac fahk, “Pwaye nga oru ma koluk lain LEUM GOD lun Israel, ac pa inge ma nga oru.
21 Kwathi ngibona phakathi kwempango isembatho seBhabhiloni esihle esisodwa, lamashekeli esiliva angamakhulu amabili, lolimi lwegolide olulodwa osisindo salo singamashekeli angamatshumi amahlanu, ngakuhawukela, ngakuthatha, khangela-ke, kuthukuziwe emhlabathini phakathi kwethente lami, lesiliva singaphansi kwakho.
Inmasrlon ma kut sruokya, nga liye nuknuk Babylonia na kato se, ac sunun paun limekosr ke silver, ac ipin gold se su toasr liki paun se. Nga lungse yohk ma inge, oru nga srukak. Nga pikinya ma inge oasr infulwen lohm nuknuk sik, ac silver kac ah pa oan e ten.”
22 UJoshuwa wasethuma izithunywa, zagijima zaya ethenteni, khangela-ke, kwakufihliwe ethenteni lakhe, lesiliva singaphansi kwakho.
Na Joshua el supwala kutu mwet in kasrusr nu ke lohm nuknuk sel Achan, ac elos konauk lah ma inge pukpuki oan we, ac silver kac ah oan e ten.
23 Bakukhupha phakathi kwethente, bakuletha kuJoshuwa lebantwaneni bonke bakoIsrayeli, bakuthululela phambi kweNkosi.
Elos use ma inge nu yorol Joshua ac mwet Israel nukewa, ac filiya ma inge ye mutun LEUM GOD.
24 UJoshuwa loIsrayeli wonke ekanye laye basebemthatha uAkani indodana kaZera, lesiliva, lesembatho, lolimi lwegolide, lamadodana akhe, lamadodakazi akhe, lenkabi zakhe, labobabhemi bakhe, lezimvu zakhe, lethente lakhe, lakho konke ayelakho, bakwenyusela esihotsheni seAkori.
Joshua ac mwet Israel nukewa elos sruokilya Achan, ac elos us silver, ac nuknuk sac, ipin gold se, ac tulik natul mukul ac mutan, cow, donkey, sheep, lohm nuknuk sel, ac ma lal nukewa, ac elos usla nu infahlfal se pangpang Infahlfal in Ongoiya.
25 UJoshuwa wasesithi: Usihlupheleni? INkosi izakuhlupha lamuhla. LoIsrayeli wonke wamkhanda ngamatshe; babatshisa ngomlilo, babakhanda ngamatshe.
Ac Joshua el fahk, “Efu kom ku ase mwe ongoiya inge nu facsr? LEUM GOD El ac fah asot mwe ongoiya nu fom!” Na mwet nukewa tanglal Achan nwe ke el misa. Elos oayapa tungal ac esukak sou lal ac ma lal nukewa.
26 Bamisa phezu kwakhe inqwaba enkulu yamatshe kuze kube lamuhla. Ngalokho iNkosi yaphenduka ekuvutheni kolaka lwayo. Ngakho ibizo laleyondawo labizwa ngokuthi yisihotsha seAkori, kuze kube lamuhla.
Elos etoak yol in eot se facl Achan, ac yol in eot se inge oan we nwe misenge. Pa inge sripa se sis pangpang acn se inge nwe misenge “Infahlfal in Ongoiya.” Na LEUM GOD El ohula liki kasrkusrak lal.
