< Iyyaasuu 8 >

1 Ergasiis Waaqayyo Iyyaasuudhaan akkana jedhe; “Hin sodaatin yookaan abdii hin kutatin. Loltoota hunda fudhadhuutii ol baʼii magaalaa Aayi loli. Ani kunoo mootii Aayi, nama isaa, magaalaa isaatii fi biyya isaa harka keetti dabarsee kenneeraatii.
And the Lord said to Josue: Fear not, nor be thou dismayed: take with thee all the multitude of fighting men, arise and go up to the town of Hai. Behold I have delivered into thy hand the king thereof, and the people, and the city, and the land.
2 Akkuma Yerikoo fi mootii ishee goote sana, Aayii fi mootii ishee illee goota; yeroo kana garuu boojuu fi horii ishee ofii keessanii fudhachuu dandeessu. Nama riphee magaalattii eegu karaa duubaatiin kaaʼi.”
And thou shalt do to the city of Hai, and to the king thereof, as thou hast done to Jericho, and to the king thereof: but the spoils and all the cattle you shall take for a prey to yourselves: lay an ambush for the city behind it.
3 Iyyaasuu fi loltoonni hundinuus kaʼanii Aayin loluuf baʼan. Innis loltoota isaa warra jajjaboo keessaa nama kuma soddoma filatee halkaniin erge;
And Josue arose, and all the army of the fighting men with him, to go up against Hai: and he sent thirty thousand chosen valiant men in the night,
4 akkanas jedhee isaan ajaje: “Mee qalbiidhaan na dhagaʼaa. Isin boroo magaalaatti riphxu. Guddiftanii irraa hin fagaatinaa. Hundi keessan qophaaʼaa.
And commanded them, saying: Lay an ambush behind the city: and go not very far from it: and be ye all ready.
5 Anii fi warri na wajjin jiran hundi magaalaa sanatti dhiʼaanna; yommuu namoonni akkuma duraa sana fuula duraan nutti dhufan nu isaan duraa baqanna.
But I and the rest of the multitude which is with me; will approach on the contrary side against the city. And when they shall come out against us, we will flee, and turn our backs, as we did before:
6 Isaanis sababii, ‘Jarri kun akkuma duraa sana nu baqachaa jiru’ nuun jedhaniif, hamma nu magaalaa sana irraa isaan fageessinutti nu duukaa buʼu. Kanaafuu yommuu nu isaan baqannutti,
Till they pursuing us be drawn farther from the city: for they will think that we flee as before.
7 isin immoo iddoo itti riphxanii kaatanii magaalaa sana qabattu. Waaqayyo Waaqni keessanis magaalaa sana harka keessanitti dabarsee ni kenna.
And whilst we are fleeing, and they pursuing, you shall arise out of the ambush, and shall destroy the city: and the Lord your God will deliver it into our hands.
8 Isin yommuu magaalaa sana qabattanitti ibidda itti qabsiisaa. Waan kanas akkuma Waaqayyo ajajetti hojjedhaa. Kunoo ani isin ajajeera.”
And when you shall have taken it, set it on fire, and you shall do all things so as I have commanded.
9 Ergasii Iyyaasuun isaan erge; isaanis gara iddoo itti riphan kan gama baʼa Aayitiin Beetʼeelii fi Aayi gidduu jiru sanaa dhaqan; Iyyaasuun garuu halkan sana uummata wajjin bule.
And he sent them away, and they went on to the place of the ambush, and abode between Bethel and Hai, on the west side of the city of Hai. But Josue stayed that night in the midst of the people,
10 Guyyaa itti aanu ganama barii Iyyaasuun namoota ofii isaa walitti qabatee innii fi maanguddoonni Israaʼel namoota dura Aayitti ol qajeelan.
And rising early in the morning, he mustered his soldiers, and went up with the ancients in the front of the army environed with the aid of the fighting men.
11 Loltoonni isa wajjin turan hundinuu ol baʼanii fuula duraan magaalattiitti dhiʼaatanii karaa kaaba Aayitiin qubatan. Sululli tokkos isaanii fi magaalattii gidduutti argama ture.
And when they were come, and were gone up over against the city, they stood on the north side of the city, between which and them there was a valley in the midst.
12 Iyyaasuun nama gara kuma shan fudhatee gama lixa magaalattiitiin Beetʼeelii fi Aayi gidduutti riphsiise.
And he had chosen five thousand men, and set them to lie in ambush between Bethel and Hai, on the west side of the same city:
13 Isaanis namoota, jechuunis loltoota gama kaaba magaalattiitiin turan hundaa fi warra dugda duubaan gama lixaatiin riphanii turan iddoo iddoo isaanii qabsiisan. Iyyaasuun garuu gara sululaatti gad buʼee halkan sana achi bule.
But all the rest of the army went in battle array on the north side, so that the last of that multitude reached to the west side of the city. So Josue went that night, and stood in the midst of the valley.
14 Mootiin Aayi yommuu waan kana argetti, innii fi namoonni magaalaa sanaa hundinuu iddoo Arabbaan olii tokkotti Israaʼelootaan wal waraanuuf ganama bariin ariifatanii baʼan. Inni garuu akka waraanni riphee dugda magaalaa sanaa duubaan isa eeggatu hin beekne.
And when the king of Hai saw this, he made haste in the morning, and went out with all the army of the city, and set it in battle array toward the desert, not knowing that there lay an ambush behind his back.
15 Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundi waan ariʼaman of fakkeessanii dugda duubatti deebiʼanii fuula isaanii dura gara gammoojjiitti baqatan.
But Josue, and all Israel gave back, making as if they were afraid, and fleeing by the way of the wilderness.
16 Namoonni Aayi hundinuus akka Israaʼeloota ariʼaniif walitti waamaman; isaanis Iyyaasuu faana buʼanii akkasiin magaalattii irraa fageeffaman.
But they shouting together, and encouraging one another, pursued them. And when they were come from the city,
17 Namni Israaʼeloota faana buʼee ariʼuuf hin baʼin tokko iyyuu Aayi yookaan Beetʼeel keessatti hin hafne. Magaalattiis eegumsa malee hambisanii Israaʼeloota ariʼuuf baʼan.
And not one remained in the city of Hai and of Bethel, that did not pursue after Israel, leaving the towns open as they had rushed out,
18 Waaqayyos Iyyaasuudhaan, “Sababii ani magaalattii harka keetti dabarsee kennuuf, eeboo harkaa qabdu gara Aayitti deebifadhu” jedhe. Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun eeboo isaa gara Aayitti deebifate.
The Lord said to Josue: Lift up the shield that is in thy hand, towards the city of Hai, for I will deliver it to thee.
19 Akkuma inni waan kana godheen warri riphanii eeggachaa turan sun dafanii iddoo isaaniitii kaʼanii fuul duratti fiigan. Isaanis magaalattii seenanii qabatan; dafaniis ibidda itti qabsiisan.
And when he had lifted up his shield towards the city, the ambush that lay hid, rose up immediately: and going to the city, took it and set it on fire.
20 Namoonni Aayi yommuu garagalanii of duuba ilaalanitti aara magaalattii kan samiitti ol kaʼu argan; garuu sababii Israaʼeloonni duraan gara gammoojjiitti baqatan sun amma warra isaan ariʼaa jiranitti garagalaniif, jarri eessumattuu baqachuuf carraa tokko illee hin arganne.
And the men of the city, that pursued after Josue, looking back and seeing the smoke of the city rise up to heaven, had no more power to flee this way or that way: especially as they that had counterfeited flight, and were going toward the wilderness, turned back most valiantly against them that pursued.
21 Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundinuu yommuu akka warri riphee eeggachaa ture sun magaalattii qabatee fi akka aarri magaalattii irraa kaʼu arganitti of irra garagalanii namoota Aayi dhaʼan.
So Josue and all Israel seeing that the city was taken, and that the smoke of the city rose up, returned and slew the men of Hai.
22 Namoonni riphanii turanis magaalaadhaa baʼanii isaanitti dhufan; kanaafuu Israaʼeloonni gamanaa gamasiin isaan marsanii jarri Israaʼeloota gidduutti qabaman. Israaʼeloonnis akka namni tokko iyyuu hin hafneef yookaan baqatee hin miliqneef isaan fixan.
And they also that had taken and set the city on fire, issuing out of the city to meet their own men, began to cut off the enemies who were surrounded by them. So that the enemies being cut off on both sides, not one of so great a multitude was saved.
23 Mootii Aayi garuu lubbuudhumaan qabanii Iyyaasuutti fidan.
And they took the king of the city of Hai alive, and brought him to Josue.
24 Israaʼeloonni yommuu dhiirota Aayi hunda dirree fi gammoojjii jarri itti Israaʼeloota ariʼan sanatti qalanii isaan fixanitti, Israaʼeloonni hundinuu gara Aayitti dachaʼanii warra achitti hafes goraadeedhaan barbadeessan.
So all being slain that had pursued after Israel in his flight to the wilderness, and tailing by the sword in the same place, the children of Israel returned and laid waste the city.
25 Namoonni Aayi kanneen gaafasi dhuman dhiiraa dubartiin kuma kudha lama turan.
And the number of them that fell that day, both of men and women, was twelve thousand persons all of the city of Hai.
26 Iyyaasuun hamma namoota Aayi keessa jiraatan hunda fixutti harka isaa kan diriirfatee ittiin eeboo qabate sana hin dachaafanne tureetii.
But Josue drew not back his hand, which he had stretched out on high, holding the shield, till all the inhabitants of Hai were slain.
27 Israaʼel garuu akkuma Waaqayyo Iyyaasuu ajajetti horii fi boojuu magaalattii qofa fudhate.
And the children of Israel divided among them the cattle and the prey of the city, as the Lord had commanded Josue.
28 Akkasitti Iyyaasuun Aayin gubee tuulaa daaraa godhe hambise; hamma harʼaattis isheen akkuma barbadooftetti jirti.
And he burned the city, and made it a heap for ever:
29 Innis mootii Aayi muka irratti fannisee hamma biiftuun lixxutti achumatti isa dhiise. Iyyaasuun yommuu aduun dhiitetti akka isaan reeffa isaa muka irraa gad buusanii karra magaalattii duratti darbatan isaan ajaje. Isaanis tuulaa dhagaa guddaa hamma harʼaattis jiru reeffa sana irratti tuulan.
And he hung the king thereof on a gibbet until the evening and the going down of the sun. Then Josue commanded, and they took down his carcass from the gibbet: and threw it in the very entrance of the city, heaping upon it a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day.
30 Ergasii Iyyaasuun Tulluu Eebaal irratti Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼeliif iddoo aarsaa ijaare.
Then Josue built an altar to the Lord the God of Israel in mount Hebal,
31 Iddoo aarsaa kanas akkuma Museen garbichi Waaqayyoo Israaʼeloota ajaje sanatti hojjete. Innis akkuma Kitaaba Seera Musee keessatti barreeffametti dhagaa hin soofamin kan sibiilli hin tuqiniin hojjete; isa irrattis aarsaa gubamu dhiʼeessanii aarsaa nagaas Waaqayyoof qalan.
As Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded the children of Israel, and it is written in the book of the law of Moses: an altar of unhewn stones which iron had not touched: and he offered upon it holocausts to the Lord, and immolated victims of peace offerings.
32 Iyyaasuunis achumatti fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti, seera Museen barreessee ture sana dhagaa irratti garagalche.
And he wrote upon stones the Deuteronomy of the law of Moses, which he had ordered before the children of Israel.
33 Israaʼeloonni hundinuu, alagaa fi dhalataan biyyaa, maanguddoota isaanii wajjin, ajajjoota loltootaatii fi abbootii seeraa wajjin, Lewwota luboota taʼan kanneen taabota kakuu Waaqayyoo baatan sanatti fuula deebifatanii bitaa mirgaan dhadhaabatan. Akkuma Museen garbichi Waaqayyoo akka isaan saba Israaʼel eebbisaniif jalqabatti isaan ajaje sanatti walakkaan isaanii Tulluu Gerziim dura dhadhaabatanii walakkaan isaanii immoo Tulluu Eebaal dura dhadhaabatan.
And all the people, and the ancients, and the princes and judges stood on both sides of the ark, before the priests that carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, both the stranger and he that was born among them, half of them by mount Garizim, and half by mount Hebal, as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded. And first he blessed the people of Israel.
34 Ergasiis Iyyaasuun akkuma Kitaaba Seeraa keessatti barreeffametti dubbii seeraa hunda kan eebbaatii fi kan abaarsaa ni dubbise.
After this he read all the words of the blessing and the cursing and all things that were written in the hook of the law.
35 Dubbii Museen isa ajaje hunda keessaa wanni Iyyaasuun waldaa Israaʼel hundaaf akkasumas dubartootaaf, daaʼimmanii fi alagoota gidduu isaanii jiraataniif utuu hin dubbisin bira darbe tokko iyyuu hin turre.
He left out nothing of those things which Moses had commanded, but he repeated all before all the people of Israel, with the women and children and strangers that dwelt among them.
