Iyyaasuu 5
1 Mootonni Amoorotaa kanneen gama dhiʼa Yordaanos jiraatanii fi mootonni Kanaʼaanotaa kanneen qarqara galaanaa jiraatan hundi akka Waaqayyo hamma nu ceenutti fuula saba Israaʼel duratti Yordaanos gogse yommuu dhagaʼanitti onneen isaanii ni baqxe; deebiʼaniis fuula Israaʼelootaa dura dhaabachuu sodaatan.
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.
2 Waaqayyo yeroo sana Iyyaasuudhaan, “Haaduu qara qabu tolchiitii ammas Israaʼeloota dhagna qabi” jedhe.
Ngalesosikhathi iNkosi yathi kuJoshuwa: Zenzele ingqamu zensengetshe, ubasoke futhi abantwana bakoIsrayeli okwesibili.
3 Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun haaduu qara qabu tolchee Gibeʼaat Aaralootitti Israaʼeloota dhagna qabe.
UJoshuwa wasezenzela ingqamu zensengetshe, wabasoka abantwana bakoIsrayeli oqaqeni lwamajwabu aphambili.
4 Sababiin Iyyaasuun waan kana hojjeteef kana: Warri biyya Gibxii baʼanii dhufan hundinuu jechuunis dhiironni lolan hundinuu erga Gibxii baʼanii booddee gammoojjii keessatti karaatti dhuman.
Njalo yilesisizatho uJoshuwa abasokela sona; bonke abantu abaphuma eGibhithe, abesilisa, amadoda wonke empi, afela enkangala endleleni esephumile eGibhithe.
5 Namoonni Gibxii baʼan hundi dhagna qabatanii turan; warri yeroo Gibxii baʼanii gammoojjii keessa deemaa turanitti karaatti dhalatan garuu dhagna hin qabamne.
Ngoba bonke abantu abaphumayo babesokiwe, kodwa bonke abantu ababezalelwe enkangala endleleni sebephumile eGibhithe babengabasokanga.
6 Israaʼeloonni sababii Waaqayyoof ajajamuu didaniif hamma namoonni yeroo Gibxii baʼanitti loluu dandaʼan hundi dhumanitti waggaa afurtama gammoojjii keessa jooran. Waaqayyo akka isaan biyya inni nuu kennuuf abbootii isaanii abdachiisee ture, biyya aannanii fi damma baaftu sana hin argine isaanitti kakatee tureetii.
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.
7 Kanaafuu inni qooda isaanii ilmaan isaanii kaase; isaanis warra Iyyaasuun dhagna qabee dha. Isaan sababii karaatti dhagna hin qabaminiif hamma harʼaatti utuu dhagna hin qabamin jiraatan.
Labantwana bawo yabavusa esikhundleni sawo; bona uJoshuwa wabasoka, ngoba babengasokwanga, ngoba babengabasokanga endleleni.
8 Isaanis erga sabni guutuun dhagna qabamee booddee hamma fayyanitti lafuma jiran sana qubata keessa turan.
Kwasekusithi sebeqedile ukusoka isizwe sonke, bahlala endaweni yabo enkambeni baze baphola.
9 Waaqayyos Iyyaasuudhaan, “Ani harʼa arrabsoo Gibxi sana isin irraa gangalcheera” jedhe. Kanaafuu iddoon sun hamma harʼaatti Gilgaal jedhamee waamama.
INkosi yasisithi kuJoshuwa: Lamuhla ngigiqile ngasusa kini ihlazo leGibhithe. Ngakho ibizo laleyondawo lathiwa yiGiligali kuze kube lamuhla.
10 Galgala bultii kudha afuraffaa jiʼa sanaatti sabni Israaʼel utuma dirree Yerikoo irra Gilgaal keessa qubatee jiruu Faasiikaa ayyaaneffate.
Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebemisa inkamba eGiligali, bagcina iphasika ngosuku lwetshumi lane lwenyanga kusihlwa emagcekeni eJeriko.
11 Isaanis guyyaa Faasiikaatti aanee dhufu, gaafuma sana midhaan biyyattii keessaa waa nyaatan; kunis Maxinoo fi asheetii waadamee dha.
Basebesidla izithelo zelizwe, ngekuseni eyalandela iphasika, izinkwa ezingelamvubelo lamabele akhanzingiweyo, ngalona lolosuku.
12 Mannaanis guyyuma isaan midhaan biyya sanaa nyaatanitti aanu gad buʼuu dhiise; ergasii mannaan tokko iyyuu warra Israaʼeliif gad hin buune; garuu isaan waggaa sana keessa midhaan biyya Kanaʼaan nyaatan.
Imana yacina ngelanga elalandela abadla ngalo izithelo zelizwe; labantwana bakoIsrayeli kabasabanga lemana, kodwa badla izithelo zelizwe leKhanani ngalowomnyaka.
13 Iyyaasuun yommuu Yerikootti dhiʼaatetti, ol milʼatee nama goraadee luqqifame harkatti qabatee isa dura dhaabatu tokko arge. Iyyaasuun gara isaa dhaqee, “Ati gara keenya moo gara diinota keenyaa ti?” jedhee isa gaafate.
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?
14 Innis deebisee, “Ani gara eenyuu iyyuu miti; garuu ani amma akka ajajaa loltoota Waaqayyootti dhufeera” jedhe. Iyyaasuunis addaan lafatti gombifamee sagadee, “Ergaan Gooftaan koo garbicha isaatiif qabu maali?” jedhee isa gaafate.
Wasesithi: Hatshi; kodwa ngiyinduna yebutho leNkosi; sengibuyile. UJoshuwa wasesithi mbo ngobuso bakhe emhlabathini, wakhonza esithi kuye: INkosi yami ithini encekwini yayo?
15 Ajajaan loltoota Waaqayyoos Iyyaasuudhaan, “Sababii iddoon ati dhaabattu kun qulqulluu taʼeef kophee kee of irraa baasi” jedhe. Iyyaasuunis akkasuma godhe.
Induna yebutho leNkosi yasisithi kuJoshuwa: Khulula inyathela lakho enyaweni lwakho, ngoba indawo omi kiyo ingcwele. UJoshuwa wasesenza njalo.
