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.
Israaʼeloonni garuu waan Waaqayyoof addaan baafame irratti amanamummaa dhaban; Aakaan ilmi Karmii, ilmi Zabdii, ilmi Zaaraa kan gosa Yihuudaa waan Waaqayyoof addaan baafame sana keessaa waan tokko tokko fudhate. Kanaafis dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo Israaʼel irratti bobaʼe.
2 UJoshuwa wasethuma abantu besuka eJeriko besiya eAyi eliseduze leBeti-Aveni empumalanga kweBhetheli, wakhuluma kibo esithi: Yenyukani liyehlola ilizwe. Abantu basebesenyuka bayihlola iAyi.
Kana irratti Iyyaasuun Yerikoodhaa gara Aayi kan Beet Aawwen bira gama baʼa Beetʼeelitti argamtu sanaatti nama ergee, “Dhaqaatii naannoo sana basaasaa” jedhe. Kanaafuu namoonni ol baʼanii Aayin basaasan.
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.
Isaanis gara Iyyaasuutti deebiʼanii, “Namni hundinuu Aayitti ol baʼuu hin qabu. Sababii namni muraasni qofti achi jiruuf akka isaan dhaqanii biyyattii fudhataniif nama kuma lama yookaan kuma sadii taʼu ergi malee namoota hundumaa hin dadhabsiisin” jedhaniin.
4 Kwasekusenyukela khona abavela ebantwini amadoda aphosa abe zinkulungwane ezintathu; abaleka phambi kwamadoda eAyi.
Kanaafuu namoonni gara kuma sadii taʼan kaʼanii ol baʼan; isaan garuu namoota Aayi duraa baqatan;
5 Lamadoda eAyi atshaya phose amadoda angamatshumi amathathu lesithupha, axotshana lawo phambi kwesango aze afika eShebarimi, awatshayela ekwehleni. Ngakho inhliziyo yabantu yancibilika yaba ngamanzi.
namoonni Aayis gara nama soddomii jaʼa isaan jalaa fixan. Isaanis karra magaalattiitii jalqabanii hamma Shabaariimiitti Israaʼeloota ariʼanii ededa irratti isaan fixan; kanaanis onneen namootaa baqxee akka bishaanii taate.
6 UJoshuwa wasedabula izigqoko zakhe, wathi mbo ngobuso emhlabathini phambi komtshokotsho weNkosi kwaze kwahlwa, yena labadala bakoIsrayeli, bathela uthuli emakhanda abo.
Iyyaasuunis uffata isaa tarsaasee fuula taabota Waaqayyoo duratti addaan lafatti gombifamee hamma galgalaatti achuma ture. Maanguddoonni saba Israaʼelis akkasuma godhanii mataa ofii isaanii irratti awwaara firfirsan.
7 UJoshuwa wasesithi: Maye Nkosi Jehova! Ubachaphiseleni lokubachaphisa lababantu iJordani ukusinikela esandleni samaAmori ukusibhubhisa? Kungathi ngabe seneliswa sahlala ngaphetsheya kweJordani!
Iyyaasuunis akkana jedhe; “Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa, ati maaliif akka isaan nu fixaniif harka Amoorotaatti nu kennuuf jettee saba kana Yordaanosiin ceesifte? Silaa utuu Yordaanos gamatti hafnee nuuf wayya ture!
8 O Nkosi, ngizakuthini, emva kokuthi uIsrayeli esephendule intamo ezitheni zakhe?
Yaa Gooftaa, erga sabni Israaʼel diinota isaa baqatee ani amma maal jechuu dandaʼa?
9 Ngoba amaKhanani labo bonke abakhileyo elizweni bazakuzwa, basihanqe, baliqume ibizo lethu lisuke emhlabeni. Pho, uzalenzelani ibizo lakho elikhulu?
Kanaʼaanonnii fi saboonni biyya kanaa kan biraa waan kana dhagaʼanii nu marsanii maqaa keenya lafa irraa ni balleessu. Yoos ati maqaa kee guddaa sanaaf maal goota?”
10 INkosi yasisithi kuJoshuwa: Sukuma wena, uweleni kanje ngobuso bakho?
Waaqayyos Iyyaasuudhaan akkana jedhe; “Ol kaʼi! Ati maaliif addaan gombifamte?
11 UIsrayeli wonile; njalo baseqile isivumelwano sami engabalaya sona, bathethe futhi kokuqalekisiweyo, njalo bebile, baqamba amanga futhi, yebo bakubekile empahleni zabo.
Israaʼel cubbuu hojjeteera; isaan kakuu koo kan ani akka isaan eeganiif isaan ajaje sana cabsaniiru. Isaan waan addaan naa baafame keessaa waan tokko tokko fudhataniiru; hataniiru; sobaniiru; waan sanas qabeenya isaanii wajjin ol kaaʼataniiru.
12 Ngalokho abantwana bakoIsrayeli babengelakuma phambi kwezitha zabo, baphendula umhlana phambi kwezitha zabo, ngoba beqalekisiwe. Kangisayikuba lani uba lingabhubhisi okuqalekisiweyo phakathi kwenu.
Wanni Israaʼeloonni diinota isaanii dura dhaabachuu hin dandeenyeefis kanuma; isaan sababii badiisaaf ramadamaniif dugda duubatti garagalanii diinota isaanii baqatan. Ani hamma ati waan badiisaaf ajajame kam iyyuu gidduu keessanii balleessitutti siʼachi isin wajjin hin jiraadhu.
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.
“Kaʼiitii saba qulqulleessi. Akkanas isaaniin jedhi; ‘Boriif ofi qulqulleessaa; wanni Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel jedhu isa kanaatii; yaa Israaʼel, wanni hirmii taʼe tokko gidduu keessan jira. Isin hamma waan sana of keessaa baaftanitti diinota keessan of irraa ittisuu hin dandeessan.
14 Ngakho ekuseni lizasondezwa ngezizwe zenu; kuzakuthi-ke isizwe iNkosi ezasibamba sizasondela ngensendo, losendo iNkosi ezalubamba luzasondela ngezindlu, lendlu iNkosi ezayibamba izasondela ngabantu.
“‘Kanaafuu ganama gosa gosaan ofi dhiʼeessaa. Gosti Waaqayyo filatu balbala balbalaan gara fuula duraatti haa baʼu; balballi Waaqayyo filatus maatii maatiidhaan gara fuula duraatti haa baʼu; maatiin Waaqayyo filatus nama tokko tokkoon gara fuula duraatti haa baʼu.
15 Kuzakuthi-ke lowo ozabanjwa lokuqalekisiweyo uzatshiswa ngomlilo, yena lakho konke alakho, ngoba eqe isivumelwano seNkosi, langoba enze ubuphukuphuku koIsrayeli.
Namni waan balleeffamuu qabu wajjin qabame, waan qabu hundumaa wajjin ibiddaan haa gubamu. Inni kakuu Waaqayyoo cabseera; waan Israaʼel keessatti qaanii taʼes hojjeteera!’”
16 UJoshuwa wasevuka ekuseni kakhulu, wenza uIsrayeli wasondela ngezizwe zakhe; lesizwe sakoJuda sabanjwa;
Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun ganama bariin kaʼee saba Israaʼel gosa gosaan gara fuula duraatti baase; gosti Yihuudaas ni filatame.
17 wasesenza usendo lwakoJuda lusondele, wabamba usendo lwakoZera; wenza usendo lwakoZera lusondele ngabantu; uZabidi wasebanjwa;
Balballi Yihuudaa gara fuula duraatti baʼe; Iyyaasuunis balbala Zaaraa addaan baase. Balballi Zaaraas maatii maatiin gara fuula duraatti baʼe; Zabdiinis ni filatame.
18 wasesenza indlu yakhe isondele ngabantu; uAkani, indodana kaKarmi, indodana kaZabidi, indodana kaZera, owesizwe sakoJuda, wasebanjwa.
Iyyaasuunis maatii isaa nama tokko tokkoon gara fuula duratti baase; Aakaan ilmi Karmii, ilmi Zabdii, ilmi Zaaraa kan gosa Yihuudaa ni filatame.
19 UJoshuwa wasesithi kuAkani: Ndodana yami, ake unike iNkosi udumo, uNkulunkulu wakoIsrayeli, uvume kuye; ake ungitshele lokho okwenzileyo, ungangifihleli.
Kana irratti Iyyaasuun Aakaaniin akkana jedhe; “Yaa ilma ko, Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼeliif ulfina kenni; cubbuu kees isatti himadhu; mee waan hojjette natti himi; na hin dhoksin.”
20 UAkani wasephendula uJoshuwa wathi: Isibili mina ngonile eNkosini, uNkulunkulu wakoIsrayeli. Ngokunje langokunje ngikwenzile.
Aakaanis akkana jedhee deebise; “Wanni kun dhugaa dha! Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼelitti cubbuu hojjedheera. Wanni ani hojjedhes kunoo kana:
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.
Ani waan Baabilonii boojiʼame keessaa waaroo bareedaa tokko, meetii saqilii dhibba lamaa fi warqee saqilii shantama ulfaatu arginaan kajeelee fudhadheera. Miʼi kunis dunkaana koo keessatti meetii jala lafa keessatti dhokfameera.”
22 UJoshuwa wasethuma izithunywa, zagijima zaya ethenteni, khangela-ke, kwakufihliwe ethenteni lakhe, lesiliva singaphansi kwakho.
Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun ergamoota erge; isaanis gara dunkaana sanaatti fiigan; miʼi sunis dunkaanicha keessatti, meetii jala dhokfamee ture.
23 Bakukhupha phakathi kwethente, bakuletha kuJoshuwa lebantwaneni bonke bakoIsrayeli, bakuthululela phambi kweNkosi.
Isaan miʼa sana dunkaanicha keessaa guuranii gara Iyyaasuutii fi Israaʼeloota hundaatti fidanii fuula Waaqayyoo duratti diriirsan.
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.
Ergasiis Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundi Aakaan ilma Zaaraa, meetii, waaroo, muraa warqee, ilmaan isaatii fi intallan isaa, loon isaa, harroota isaa, hoolota isaa, dunkaana isaatii fi waan inni qabu hunda guuranii Sulula Aakooritti geessan.
25 UJoshuwa wasesithi: Usihlupheleni? INkosi izakuhlupha lamuhla. LoIsrayeli wonke wamkhanda ngamatshe; babatshisa ngomlilo, babakhanda ngamatshe.
Iyyaasuunis, “Ati maaliif rakkina kana hunda nutti fidde? Waaqayyo harʼa rakkina sitti fida” jedheen. Israaʼeloonni hundinuus dhagaadhaan isa tuman; jara kaan illee erga dhagaadhaan tumanii booddee ibiddaan isaan guban.
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.
Aakaan irratti tuulaa dhagaa guddaa hamma harʼaatti illee jiru tokko tuulan. Waaqayyos dheekkamsa isaa guddaa sana irraa deebiʼe. Kanaafis iddoon sun hamma harʼaatti Sulula Aakoor jedhamee waamama.
