6 Isaanis qubata Gilgaalitti Iyyaasuu bira dhaqanii isaa fi namoota Israaʼeliin, “Nu biyya fagoodhaa dhufne; kanaafuu kottaa walii galtee godhannaa” jedhan.
And they went to Joshua to the camp Gilgal and they said to him and to [the] man of Israel from a land distant we have come and therefore make to us a covenant.
7 Namoonni Israaʼel immoo Hiiwotaan, “Tarii isin asuma nutti dhiʼoo jiraattu taʼa; yoos nu akkamiin isin wajjin walii galtee godhachuu dandeenya ree?” jedhan.
(And he said *Q(K)*) [the] man of Israel to the Hivite[s] perhaps in midst my you [are] dwelling and how? (will I make *Q(k)*) to you a covenant.

And they said to Joshua [are] servants your we and he said to them Joshua who? [are] you and from where? do you come.
9 Isaanis akkana jedhanii deebisaniif; “Nu garboonni kee sababii maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keetii dhageenyeef biyya akka malee fagootii dhufne. Nu oduu waaʼee isaatii fi waan inni biyya Gibxii keessatti hojjete hundumaa dhageenyeerraatii;
And they said to him from a land distant very they have come servants your to [the] name of Yahweh God your for we have heard [the] report of him and all that he did in Egypt.

11 Maanguddoonni keenyaa fi jiraattonni biyya keenyaa hundinuu, ‘Karaa keessaniif waan nyaattan harkatti qabadhaatii isaan arguu dhaqaa, “Nu garboota keessanii dha; kanaafuu kottaa walii galtee godhannaa” jedhaanii’ nuun jedhan.
And they said to us elders our and all [the] inhabitants of land our saying take in hand your provision[s] for the journey and go to meet them and you will say to them [are] servants your we and therefore make to us a covenant.
12 Buddeenni keenya kun gaafa nu hidhannee gara keessan dhufuuf manaa baane hoʼaa ture. Amma garuu akka inni goggogee arraaʼe argaa.
This - bread our warm we took as our provisions it from homes our on [the] day came out we to come to you and now here! it has dried up and it has been crumbs.
13 Qalqalloon nu daadhii wayinii itti guutanne kunis haaraa ture; amma garuu akka inni tatarsaʼe ilaalaa. Uffanni keenyaa fi kopheen keenyas deemsa karaa dheeraa kanaan nu jalaa dhumeera.”
And these [the] skin-bottles of wine which we filled new and here! they have split and these garments our and sandals our they have worn out from [the] greatness of the journey very.
14 Namoonni Israaʼel galaa isaanii irraa waa fudhatan malee Waaqayyoon gorsa hin gaafanne.
And they took the men some of provision[s] their and [the] mouth of Yahweh not they asked.
15 Iyyaasuunis akka isaan jiraataniif isaan wajjin walii galtee nagaa godhe; hooggantoonni waldaas waan kana kakuudhaan mirkaneessan.
And he made to them Joshua peace and he made to them a covenant to let live them and they swore an oath to them [the] leaders of the congregation.
16 Warri Israaʼel immoo erga Gibeʼoonota wajjin walii galtee godhatan guyyaa sadii booddee akka jarri warra naannoo isaanii kanneen isaanitti dhiʼoo jiraatan taʼan dhagaʼan.
And it was from [the] end of three days after that they had made to them a covenant and they heard that [were] near they to him and in midst his they [were] dwelling.
17 Kanaafuu Israaʼeloonni kaʼanii guyyaa sadaffaatti gara magaalaa isaanii jechuunis gara Gibeʼoon, Kefiiraa, gara Biʼeerootii fi Kiriyaati Yeʼaariim dhufan.
And they set out [the] people of Israel and they came to cities their on the day third and cities their [were] Gibeon and Kephirah and Beeroth and Kiriath Jearim.
18 Israaʼeloonni garuu sababii hooggantoonni waldaa maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼeliitiin isaaniif kakatanii turaniitiif isaan hin tuqne. Waldaan sun guutuunis hooggantootatti guungume;
And not they attacked them [the] people of Israel for they had sworn an oath to them [the] leaders of the congregation by Yahweh [the] God of Israel and they grumbled all the congregation on the leaders.
19 hooggantoonni hundi garuu akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Nu Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼeliin isaanii kakanneerra; kanaafuu nu amma isaan tuquu hin dandeenyu.
And they said all the leaders to all the congregation we we have sworn an oath to them by Yahweh [the] God of Israel and therefore not we are able to touch them.
20 Wanni nu isaan goonu kana: Akka kakuu isaanii kakanne sana cabsinee dheekkamsi nurra hin buuneef akka isaan jiraataniif ittuma dhiifna.”
This we will do to them and we will let live them and not it will be towards us wrath on the oath which we swore to them.
21 Hooggantoonni sunis ittuma fufanii, “Jarri haa jiraatan; garuu guutummaa sabaatiif warra muka muranii fi warra bishaan waraaban haa taʼan” jedhan. Akkasiinis kakuun hooggantoonni isaaniif galan sun ni eegame.
And they said to them the leaders let them live and they were cutters of wood and drawers of water for all the congregation just as they had spoken to them the leaders.
22 Iyyaasuunis Gibeʼoonota ofitti waamee akkana jedheen; “Isin maaliif utuma nutti dhiʼoo jiraattanuu, ‘Nu biyya isin irraa fagoo taʼe keessa jiraanna’ jettanii nu gowwoomsitan?
And he summoned them Joshua and he spoke to them saying why? did you deceive us saying [are] distant we from you very and you in midst our [are] dwelling.
23 Isin amma abaarsa jala jirtu; tokkoon keessan iyyuu mana Waaqa kootiif muka muruu fi bishaan waraabuu jalaa hin baatan.”
And therefore [are] cursed you and not he will be cut off from you a slave and cutters of wood and drawers of water for [the] house of God my.
24 Isaanis akkana jedhanii Iyyaasuuf deebii kennan; “Akka Waaqayyo Waaqni kee akka Museen biyyaattii guutuu isinii kennuu fi akka inni warra achi jiraatan hunda fuula keessan duraa balleesuuf garbicha isaa Musee ajaje nu garboota keetti dhugumaan himameera. Kanaafuu nu sababii keessaniif jennee lubbuu keenyaaf sodaanne; wanni nu waan kana gooneefis kanuma.
And they answered Joshua and they said that certainly it was told to servants your this: he had commanded Yahweh God your Moses servant his to give to you all the land and to destroy all [the] inhabitants of the land from before you and we were afraid very for lives our because of you and we did the thing this.
25 Nu kunoo amma harka kee keessa jirra. Atis waan gaarii fi qajeelaa seete hundumaa nurratti raawwadhu.”
And therefore here we [are] in hand your according to the good and according to the right in view your to do to us do.
26 Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun Israaʼeloota duraa isaan baase; Israaʼeloonnis isaan hin ajjeefne.
And he did to them thus and he delivered them from [the] hand of [the] people of Israel and not they killed them.
27 Innis guyyuma sana Gibeʼoonota sana saba hundaaf, akkasumas iddoo Waaqayyo filatutti iddoo aarsaa Waaqayyootiif warra muka muranii fi warra bishaan waraaban isaan godhe. Isaanis hamma harʼaatti kanuma hojjetu.
And he made them Joshua on the day that cutters of wood and drawers of water for the congregation and for [the] altar of Yahweh until the day this to the place which he will choose.
