1 Asi vaIsraeri vakaita zvisina kutendeka pamusoro pezvinhu zvakatukwa; Akani mwanakomana waKami, mwanakomana waZimiri, mwanakomana waZera, worudzi rwaJudha, akatora zvimwe zvezvinhu zvakatukwa. Naizvozvo hasha dzaJehovha dzakamukira vaIsraeri.
Ka naʻe fai hala ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he meʻa fakamalaʻia: he ko ʻAkani, ko e foha ʻo Kalimi, ko e foha ʻo Sapiti, ko e foha ʻo Sela ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Siuta, naʻa ne toʻo ʻae meʻa malaʻia: pea naʻe tupu ai ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
2 Zvino Joshua akatuma vanhu kubva kuJeriko kuenda kuAi, iri pedyo neBheti Avheni kumabudazuva kweBheteri, akavaudza kuti, “Endai munosora nzvimbo iyi.” Naizvozvo varume vakaenda vakanosora Ai.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Siosiua ʻae kau tangata mei Seliko ki ʻAi, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he potu ʻo Pete-ʻAveni, ʻi he potu hahake ʻo Peteli, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “ʻAlu hake ʻo vakai ki he fonua. Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kau tangata ʻonau fakasiosio ki ʻAi.”
3 Pavakadzoka kuna Joshua, vakati, “Hazvifaniri kuti vanhu vose vaende kundorwa neAi. Tumirai varume zviuru zviviri kana zvitatu kuti vaitore, mugorega kunetsa vanhu vose ava, nokuti ikoko kuna vanhu vashomanana chete.”
Pea naʻa nau liu mai kia Siosiua, “ʻO nau talaange kiate ia, ʻoua naʻa tuku ke ʻalu hake ʻae kakai kotoa pē; kae tuku ke ʻalu hake ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko ua afe pē ko e toko tolu afe ʻo taaʻi ʻa ʻAi; pea ʻoua naʻa pule ke ʻalu ʻae kakai kotoa pē ki ai he ʻoku nau tokosiʻi pē.”
4 Naizvozvo kwakaenda varume zviuru zvitatu; asi vakamhanyiswa zvakaipisisa navarume veAi,
Ko ia naʻe ʻalu hake ki ai ʻi he kakai ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko tolu afe: pea naʻa nau hola mei he ʻao ʻoe kau tangata ʻo ʻAi.
5 avo vakauraya vaIsraeri makumi matatu navatanhatu vavo. Vakavadzinganisa kubva pasuo reguta kusvikira kuShebharimu vakavaurayira pamawere, ipapo mwoyo yavanhu yakanyongodeka ikaita semvura.
Pea naʻe teʻia ʻiate kinautolu ʻe he kau tangata ʻo ʻAi ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko tolungofulu ma toko ono; he naʻa nau tuli ʻakinautolu mei he ʻao ʻoe matapā ʻo aʻu ki Sepalimi, pea naʻe taaʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻalu hifo: ko ia naʻe vaivai ai ʻae loto ʻoe kakai, pea hoko ʻo hangē ha vai.
6 Zvino Joshua akabvarura nguo dzake akawira pasi nechiso chake pamberi peareka yaJehovha akaramba aripo kusvikira madekwana. Vakuru vavaIsraeri vakaitawo saizvozvo, vakadira guruva pamisoro yavo.
Pea naʻe hae ʻe Siosiua hono kofu, pea fakato ia ki he kelekele ki hono mata ʻi he ʻao ʻoe puha ʻo Sihova ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi, ʻaia mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli, pea naʻe ʻai ʻae efu ki honau ʻulu.
7 Zvino Joshua akati, “Haiwa! Ishe Jehovha, makamboyambutsirei vanhu ava Jorodhani kuti mutiise mumaoko avaAmori kuti vatiparadze? Dai takangogutsikana hedu takagara mhiri kweJorodhani!
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua, “ʻOiauē, ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ko e hā nai kuo ke ʻomi ai ʻae kakai ni, ki he kauvai ni ʻo Sioatani, ke fakatukutukuʻi ʻakimautolu ki he nima ʻoe kakai ʻAmoli, ke fakaʻauha ʻakimautolu? ʻAmusiaange ne mau fiemālie, pea nofomaʻu ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani!
8 Haiwa Ishe, ndingatiiko zvino vaIsraeri zvavakundwa navavengi vavo?
ʻE Sihova, ko e hā ʻeku lea ʻe fai, ʻoka fulituʻa ʻa ʻIsileli ʻo Situa ki honau ngaahi fili!
9 VaKenani navamwe vanhu vari munyika muno vachazvinzwa vagotikomberedza nokubvisa zita redu pano pasi. Zvino muchagozoitei nezita renyu guru?”
He ko e kakai Kēnani ʻoe kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua tenau fanongo ki ai, pea tenau ʻāʻi ʻakimautolu, ʻonau motuhi homau hingoa mei māmani: pea ko e hā te ke fai ki ho huafa lahi?”
10 Jehovha akati kuna Joshua, “Simuka! Wawireiko pasi nechiso chako?
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, ʻo pehē, “Tuʻu hake koe; ko e hā ʻoku ke tokoto ai ki ho mata?
11 VaIsraeri vatadza; vadarika sungano yangu, yandakavarayira kuti vaichengete. Vatora zvimwe zvezvinhu zvakatukwa; vaba, vanyepa, vazvivhenganisa nezvinhu zvavo.
Kuo fai angahala ʻa ʻIsileli, pea kuo nau fai talangataʻa ki heʻeku fuakava ʻaia naʻaku fekau kiate kinautolu: he kuo nau toʻo ʻae meʻa malaʻia, pea kuo nau kaihaʻa, mo fai fakakākā foki, pea kuo nau ʻai ia ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻanautolu.
12 Ndokusaka vaIsraeri vasingagoni kumisidzana navavengi vavo; vanofuratira vachitiza nokuti vava vanhu vakatukwa.
Ko ia naʻe ʻikai faʻa tuʻu ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻao ʻo honau ngaahi fili, ka naʻe tafoki atu honau tuʻa ki he ʻao ʻo honau ngaahi fili; koeʻuhi kuo fakamalaʻia ʻakinautolu: pea ʻe ʻikai te u toe ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te mou fakaʻauha ʻae meʻa kovi meiate kimoutolu.
13 “Enda unonatsa vanhu. Uvataurire kuti, ‘Zvinatsei muchigadzirira zuva ramangwana; nokuti zvanzi naJehovha, Mwari waIsraeri: Chinhu chakatukwa chiri pakati penyu, imi vaIsraeri. Hamungagoni kumisidzana navavengi venyu kusvikira machibvisa.
Tuʻu hake, fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻae kakai, mo ke pehē, ‘Fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻakimoutolu ki he ʻapongipongi:’ he ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻE ʻIsileli, ʻoku ʻi loto ʻiate koe ʻae meʻa fakamalaʻia; ʻoku ʻikai te ke faʻa tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo ho ngaahi fili, kaeʻoua ke mou toʻo ʻo ʻave ʻae meʻa fakamalaʻia meiate kimoutolu.
14 “‘Zvino mangwana mangwanani, munofanira kuzviratidza rudzi norudzi. Rudzi ruchabatwa naJehovha runofanira kuuya mberi imba neimba; imba ichabatwa naJehovha inofanira kuuya mberi, mhuri nemhuri; mhuri ichabatwa naJehovha inofanira kuuya mberi munhu nomunhu.
Ko ia, ʻe ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he pongipongi ʻo fakatatau ki homou ngaahi faʻahinga: pea ʻe pehē, ko e faʻahinga ko ia ʻe fili ʻe Sihova ʻe haʻu ia ʻo fakatatau ki honau ngaahi nofoʻanga: pea ko e nofoʻanga ko ia ʻe fili ʻe Sihova tenau haʻu ʻo fakatatau mo honau ngaahi fale: pea ko e fale ko ia ʻe fili ʻe Sihova tenau haʻu tautau tokotaha pe ʻae tangata.
15 Uyo achawanikwa ane zvinhu zvakatukwa achaparadzwa nomoto, nazvose zvaanazvo. Akanganisa sungano yaJehovha uye aita chinhu chinonyadzisa muIsraeri!’”
Pea ʻe fai pehē, ko ia ʻoku moʻua mo e meʻa malaʻia ʻe tutu ʻaki ia ʻae afi, ʻaia mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ne maʻu: koeʻuhi kuo fai talangataʻa ia ki he fuakava ʻa Sihova, pea ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene fai angahala ʻi ʻIsileli.”
16 Mangwana mangwanani Joshua akati vaIsraeri vauye rudzi norudzi; rudzi rwaJudha rukabatwa.
Ko ia naʻe tuʻu hengihengi hake ai ʻa Siosiua ʻi he pongipongi, ʻo ne ʻomi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga; pea naʻe fili ʻae faʻahinga ʻo Siuta;
17 Dzimba dzokwaJudha dzakauya mberi imba yavaZera ikabatwa. Akauyisa imba yavaZera nemhuri dzayo, Zimiri akabatwa.
Pea ne ʻomi ʻae nofoʻanga ʻo Siuta pea ne fili ʻae fale ʻo Sela: pea ne ʻomi ʻae fale ʻo Sela ʻo tautau tokotaha ʻae tangata; pea naʻe fili ʻa Sapiti.
18 Joshua akauyisa mhuri yake munhu nomunhu, uye Akani mwanakomana waKami, mwanakomana waZimiri, mwanakomana waZera, worudzi rwaJudha, akabatwa.
Pea naʻe ʻomi hono kau nofoʻanga ʻo tautau tokotaha ʻae tangata: pea moʻua ʻa ʻAkani, ʻaia ko e foha ʻo Kalimi, ko e foha ʻa Sapiti, ko e foha ʻo Sela, ʻi he faʻahinga ʻo Siuta.
19 Ipapo akati kuna Akani, “Mwanakomana wangu, ipa mbiri kuna Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, ureurure kwaari. Ndiudze kuti chii chawaita; usandivanzira.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua kia ʻAkani, “ʻE hoku foha, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakaʻapaʻapa kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, mo ke vete kiate ia; pea ke tala mai ni kiate au ʻaia naʻa ke fai; ʻoua naʻa ke fufū ia ʻiate au.”
20 Akani akapindura achiti, “Ichokwadi! Ndakatadzira Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri. Izvi ndizvo zvandakaita:
Pea talaange ʻe ʻAkani kia Siosiua, ʻo pehē, “Ko e moʻoni kuo u fai angahala kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, pea ʻoku pehē pe, mo pehē pe ʻeku fai:
21 Pandakaona pakati pezvakapambwa nguo yakanaka yokuBhabhironi, mashekeri mazana maviri esirivha negoridhe rairema mashekeri makumi mashanu, ndakazvichiva ndikazvitora. Zvakavigwa pasi mutende, sirivha iri pasi pazvo.”
ʻI heʻeku mamata ʻi he meʻa naʻe vete ki he kofu fakaPapilone matamatalelei, mo e sikeli siliva ʻe uangeau mo e konga koula, ko e sikeli ʻe nimangofulu hono mamafa, ne u manumanu ki ai, peau ʻave ia: pea vakai, kuo fufū ia ʻi he kelekele ʻi hoku loto fale fehikitaki, pea ʻoku ʻi lalo ʻae siliva.”
22 Naizvozvo Joshua akatuma nhume, vakamhanyira kutende, vakanowana zviriko, zvakavigwa mutende rake, sirivha iri pasi.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Siosiua ʻae kau talafekau, pea naʻa nau feleleʻi ki he fale fehikitaki; pea vakai, naʻe fufū ia ʻi hono fale fehikitaki, pea naʻe ʻi lalo ʻae siliva.
23 Vakazvibvisa mutende, vakauya nazvo kuna Joshua nokuvaIsraeri vose, vakazviwadzira pamberi paJehovha.
Pea naʻe toʻo ia mei he loto fale fehikitaki, ʻo ʻomi ia kia Siosiua, pea ki he fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli, pea folahi atu ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
24 Ipapo Joshua, pamwe chete navaIsraeri vose vakatora Akani mwanakomana waZera, nesirivha, nenguo, negoridhe, navanakomana navanasikana vake, mombe dzake, nembongoro dzake namakwai ake, netende rake nezvose zvaaiva nazvo, vakaenda nazvo kuMupata weAkori.
Pea ko Siosiua mo ʻIsileli kotoa pē mo ia, naʻa nau ʻave ʻa ʻAkani, ko e foha ʻo Sela, mo e siliva, mo e kofu, mo e konga koula, mo hono ngaahi foha, mo hono ngaahi ʻofefine, mo ʻene fanga pulu, mo ʻene fanga ʻasi, mo ʻene fanga sipi, mo hono fale fehikitaki, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne maʻu: pea nau ʻomi ʻakinautolu ki he luo ko ʻAkoli.
25 Joshua akati, “Watipinzireiko mudambudziko iri? Jehovha achakupinza mudambudziko nhasi.” Ipapo vaIsraeri vose vakamutema namatombo, uye shure kwokuvatema vose, vakavapisa nomoto.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua, “Ko e hā kuo ke fakamamahiʻi ai ʻakimautolu? ʻE fakamamahiʻi koe ʻe Sihova he ʻaho ni.” Pea naʻe tolongaki ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi maka ʻe ʻIsileli kotoa pē, pea naʻe tutu ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae afi, hili ʻenau tolongaki ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae maka.
26 Vakaunganidza murwi wamatombo mukuru pamusoro paAkani, uchiripo nanhasi. Ipapo Jehovha akadzora kutsamwa kwake kukuru. Naizvozvo nzvimbo iyi yakanzi Mupata weAkori kubvira ipapo.
Pea naʻa nau fokotuʻu ʻi ʻolunga ʻiate ia ʻae fuʻu ʻesi maka lahi ʻoku tuʻu ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni. Pea naʻe tafoki ʻa Sihova mei hono lahi ʻo hono houhau. Ko ia naʻe ui ai ʻae potu ko ia, Ko e luo ʻo ʻAkoli ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
