1 Zvino madzimambo ose avaAmoni aigara kumavirazuva eJorodhani namadzimambo ose avaKenani vaigara pedyo negungwa vakanzwa kuti Jehovha akanga aomesa Jorodhani pamberi pavaIsraeri kusvikira vayambuka, mwoyo yavo yakarukutika vakasazova nokushinga nokuda kwavaIsraeri.
Bere a Amorifo ahemfo nyinaa a wɔwɔ Yordan atɔe fam ne Kanaanfo ahemfo a wɔwɔ Po Kɛse no mpoano tee sɛ Awurade ama Asubɔnten Yordan ayow wɔ Israelfo anim ama wɔatwa no, wɔn koma tui, na ehu kyekyeree wɔn.
2 Panguva iyoyo Jehovha akataura naJoshua akati, “Gadzira mapanga amatombo anopinza ugodzingisa vaIsraeri zvakare.”
Saa bere no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua se, “Yɛ kyerɛwbo asekan na fa twa Israelfo no twetia bio.”
3 Naizvozvo Joshua akagadzira mapanga amatombo akadzingisa vaIsraeri paGibhea Hararoti (chikomo chezvikanda zvepamberi).
Enti, Yosua yɛɛ kyerɛwbo asekan no de twitwaa Israelfo nyinaa twetia wɔ Aaralot koko so.
4 Joshua akavadzingisa nokuda kwechikonzero ichi: Varume vose vakabuda muIjipiti, varume vezera rehondo, vakafira munzira mugwenga mushure mokubuda muIjipiti.
Na ɛsɛ sɛ Yosua twitwa wɔn twetia, efisɛ mmarima a na wɔanyinyin a wotumi ko bere a wofii Misraim no nyinaa awuwu wɔ sare no so.
5 Vanhu vose vakabuda vakanga vadzingiswa asi vose vakaberekerwa mugwenga vachibva kuIjipiti vakanga vasina.
Nnipa a wotu fii Misraim bae no, na wɔatwitwa wɔn nyinaa twetia, nanso wɔn a wɔwowoo wɔn wɔ sare no so wɔ akwantu bere no mu no de, na wontwitwaa wɔn twetia ɛ.
6 VaIsraeri vakanga vafamba mugwenga kwamakore makumi mana kusvikira varume vose vaiva vezera rehondo pavakabuda muIjipiti vafa, nokuti vakanga vasina kuteerera Jehovha. Nokuti Jehovha akanga apika kwavari kuti havaizoona nyika iyo yaakanga avimbisa madzitateguru avo kuti achatipa, nyika inoerera mukaka nouchi.
Israelfo no kyinkyinii wɔ sare no so mfe aduanan kosii sɛ mmarima a wotumi ko bere a wɔrefi Misraim no nyinaa wuwui. Efisɛ wɔyɛɛ asoɔden maa Awurade, na ɔkaa ntam sɛ ɔremma wɔn ani nhu asase a waka ntam sɛ ɔde bɛma wɔn no so, asase a nufusu ne ɛwo sen wɔ so no.
7 Zvino akasimudza vanakomana vavo pachinzvimbo chavo, uye ivava ndivo vakanga vasati vadzingiswa naJoshua. Vakanga vasati vadzingiswa nokuti havana kunge vadzingiswa munzira.
Enti Yosua twitwaa wɔn mmabarima a wontwaa wɔn twetia no twetia bere a na wɔrekɔ Bɔhyɛ Asase no so no. Eyinom yɛ wɔn a na wɔanyinyin a wotumi si wɔn agyanom anan mu no.
8 Shure kwokunge rudzi rwose rwadzingiswa, vakagara pavakanga vari pamisasa kusvikira vapora.
Otwaa mmarima no nyinaa twetia wiei no, wogyee wɔn ahome wɔ atenae hɔ kosii sɛ wɔn ho tɔɔ wɔn.
9 Zvino Jehovha akati kuna Joshua, “Nhasi ndabvisa kuzvidzwa kweIjipiti pamuri.” Saka nzvimbo iyoyo yakanzi Girigari, kusvikira nanhasi.
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua se, “Nnɛ mayi mo nkoayɛ wɔ Misraim ho animguase no afi mo so.” Ɛno nti, wɔfrɛ beae hɔ Gilgal de besi nnɛ.
10 Madekwana ezuva regumi namana romwedzi, vaIsraeri vari pamisasa paGirigari pamapani eJeriko, vakapemberera Pasika.
Bere a Israelfo no wɔ Gilgal atenae hɔ wɔ Yeriko asase pradada no so no, wodii Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ ɔsram a edi kan no da a ɛto so dunan no anwummere. Saa ɔsram no na wɔde kae bere a wotu fii Misraim no.
11 Zuva raitevera shure kwePasika, musi wacho chaiwo, vakadya zvimwe zvezvibereko zvenyika iyoyo: chingwa chisina mbiriso nezviyo zvakakangwa.
Da no ara, wofii ase dii apiti ne aburow a wɔatoto a wotwa fii asase no so.
12 Mana yakabva yaguma musi wakatevera shure kwokudya zvokudya zvenyika iyoyo; vaIsraeri havana kuzova nemanazve, asi vakadya zvibereko zvenyika yeKenani gore iroro.
Mana amma da no na wɔanhu bi nso bio. Enti, efi saa bere no, Israelfo no dii Kanaan asase no so nnɔbae.
13 Zvino Joshua akati ava pedyo neJeriko, akasimudza meso ake akaona murume amire pamberi pake akabata munondo wakavhomorwa muruoko rwake. Joshua akaenda kwaari akabvunza achiti, “Uri mumwe wedu here kana wavavengi vedu?”
Bere a Yosua rebɛn Yeriko kuropɔn mu no, ɔpagyaw nʼani huu ɔbarima bi a okura afoa rehyia no. Yosua kɔɔ ne nkyɛn bisaa no se, “Wowɔ yɛn afa anaa woyɛ ɔtamfo?”
14 Iye akapindura achiti, “Kwete, asi ndauya ini mukuru wehondo yaJehovha.” Ipapo Joshua akawira pasi nechiso chake akanamata, uye akamubvunza achiti, “Ishe wangu, mune shoko reiko kumuranda wenyu?”
Na ɔbarima no buaa se, “Menyɛ wɔn mu biara, meyɛ Awurade nsraadɔm so safohene.” Yosua tee eyi no, ɔdaa hɔ de nʼanim butuu fam wɔ nidi mu na ɔkae se, “Kyerɛ me nea menyɛ, dɛn na wopɛ sɛ wo somfo yɛ?”
15 Mukuru wehondo yaJehovha akapindura achiti, “Bvisa shangu dzako mutsoka dzako nokuti nzvimbo yaumire itsvene.” Joshua akaita saizvozvo.
Awurade nsraadɔm safohene no buae se, “Yi wo mpaboa na ɛha yɛ asase kronkron.” Na Yosua yɛɛ nea ɔkyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no.
