Ɛberɛ a Amorifoɔ ahemfo nyinaa a wɔwɔ Yordan atɔeɛ fam ne Kanaanfoɔ ahemfo a wɔwɔ Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no mpoano tee sɛ Awurade ama Asubɔnten Yordan awe wɔ Israelfoɔ anim ama wɔatwa no, wɔn akoma tuiɛ na ehu kyekyeree wɔn.
2 Panguva iyoyo Jehovha akataura naJoshua akati, “Gadzira mapanga amatombo anopinza ugodzingisa vaIsraeri zvakare.”
Saa ɛberɛ no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Yɛ twerɛboɔ sekammoa na fa twa Israelfoɔ no twetia bio.”
3 Naizvozvo Joshua akagadzira mapanga amatombo akadzingisa vaIsraeri paGibhea Hararoti (chikomo chezvikanda zvepamberi).
Enti, Yosua yɛɛ twerɛboɔ sekammoa no de twitwaa Israelfoɔ nyinaa twetia wɔ Aaralot kokoɔ 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, ɛfiri sɛ, mmarima a na wɔanyinyini a wɔtumi ko wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔfirii Misraim no nyinaa awuwu wɔ ɛserɛ no so.
5 Vanhu vose vakabuda vakanga vadzingiswa asi vose vakaberekerwa mugwenga vachibva kuIjipiti vakanga vasina.
Nnipa a wɔtu firii Misraim baeɛ no, na wɔatwitwa wɔn nyinaa twetia. Nanso wɔn a wɔwowoo wɔn wɔ ɛserɛ no so wɔ Otukorɔ berɛ no mu no deɛ, na wɔntwitwaa wɔn twetia.
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.
Israelfoɔ no kyinkyinii wɔ ɛserɛ no so mfeɛ aduanan kɔsii sɛ mmarima a wɔtumi ko wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔrefiri Misraim no nyinaa wuwuiɛ. Ɛfiri sɛ, wɔyɛɛ asoɔden maa Awurade, na ɔkaa ntam sɛ ɔremma wɔn nan rensi asase a waka ntam sɛ ɔde bɛma yɛn no so, asase a nufosuo ne ɛwoɔ resene 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 mmammarima a wɔntwaa wɔn twetia no twetia wɔ ɛberɛ a na wɔrekɔ Bɔhyɛ Asase no so no. Yeinom yɛ wɔn a na wɔanyinyini a wɔtumi si wɔn agyanom anan mu no.
8 Shure kwokunge rudzi rwose rwadzingiswa, vakagara pavakanga vari pamisasa kusvikira vapora.
Ɔtwaa mmarima no nyinaa twetia wieeɛ no, wɔgyee wɔn ahome wɔ atenaeɛ hɔ kɔsii 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 sɛ, “Ɛnnɛ mayi mo nkoayɛ wɔ Misraim ho animguaseɛ no afiri mo so.” Ɛno enti, wɔfrɛ beaeɛ hɔ Gilgal de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
10 Madekwana ezuva regumi namana romwedzi, vaIsraeri vari pamisasa paGirigari pamapani eJeriko, vakapemberera Pasika.
Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ no wɔ Gilgal atenaeɛ hɔ wɔ Yeriko asase parada no so no, wɔdii Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda a ɛtɔ so dunan no anwummerɛ. Saa bosome no na wɔde kae ɛberɛ a wɔtu firii Misraim no.
11 Zuva raitevera shure kwePasika, musi wacho chaiwo, vakadya zvimwe zvezvibereko zvenyika iyoyo: chingwa chisina mbiriso nezviyo zvakakangwa.
Ɛda no ara, wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ dii apiti ne aburoo a wɔtwa firii asase no so a wɔakye.
12 Mana yakabva yaguma musi wakatevera shure kwokudya zvokudya zvenyika iyoyo; vaIsraeri havana kuzova nemanazve, asi vakadya zvibereko zvenyika yeKenani gore iroro.
Mana amma ɛda no na wɔanhunu bi nso bio. Enti, ɛfiri saa ɛberɛ no, Israelfoɔ no dii Kanaan asase no so nnɔbaeɛ.
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?”
Ɛberɛ a Yosua rebɛn Yeriko kuropɔn no, ɔpagyaa nʼani hunuu ɔbarima bi a ɔkura akofena rehyia no. Yosua kɔɔ ne nkyɛn bisaa no sɛ, “Wowɔ yɛn afa anaa woyɛ ɔtamfoɔ?”
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 sɛ, “Menyɛ wɔn mu biara, meyɛ Awurade asraadɔm so safohene.” Yosua tee yei no, ɔdaa hɔ de nʼanim butuu fam wɔ anidie mu na ɔkaa sɛ, “Kyerɛ me deɛ menyɛ, ɛdeɛn na wopɛ sɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ yɛ?”
15 Mukuru wehondo yaJehovha akapindura achiti, “Bvisa shangu dzako mutsoka dzako nokuti nzvimbo yaumire itsvene.” Joshua akaita saizvozvo.
Awurade asraadɔm safohene no buaa sɛ, “Yi wo mpaboa na ɛha yɛ asase kronkron.” Na Yosua yɛɛ deɛ ɔkyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no.
