< Joshua 8 >

1 Zvino Jehovha akati kuna Joshua, “Usatya kana kuvhundutswa. Tora varwi vose uende unorwisa Ai. Nokuti ndaisa mambo weAi, navanhu vake, neguta rake nenyika yake mumaoko ako.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, “ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē, pea ʻoua naʻa ke ilifia: ʻave ʻae kautau kotoa pē, pea tuʻu hake, ʻo ʻalu hake ki ʻAi: vakai, kuo u tuku ki ho nima ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻAi, mo hono kakai, mo ʻene kolo, mo hono fonua:
2 Munofanira kuita kuAi namambo waro sezvamakaita kuJeriko namambo waro, kunze kwokuti apa munofanira kuzvitakurira zvamunotapa zvavo nezvipfuwo. Muise vangavandira guta necheseri kwaro.”
Pea ke fai ki ʻAi mo hono tuʻi ʻo hangē ko ia naʻa ke fai ki Seliko mo hono tuʻi; ka ko e vete ʻo ia, mo e fanga manu ʻi ai te mou maʻu maʻamoutolu: ke toka ʻae malumu ki he potu tuʻa ʻoe kolo.”
3 Naizvozvo Joshua akasimuka nehondo yose kuti andorwisa Ai. Akasarudza mhare dzokurwa dzinokwana zviuru makumi matatu akavatuma usiku.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ai ʻa Siosiua, mo e kautau kotoa pē, kenau ʻalu hake ki ʻAi: pea naʻe fili ʻe Siosiua ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko tolu mano, ko e kau mālohi mo toʻa, ʻo ne fekau kenau ʻalu ʻi he poʻuli.
4 Akavarayira achiti, “Nyatsoteererai. Munofanira kuvandira guta necheseri kwaro. Musaende kure naro. Mose munofanira kugara makagadzirira.
Pea naʻa ne fekau kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Vakai, te mou toka malumu ʻo hanga ki he kolo, ʻio, ʻi he tuʻa kolo ki mui: ʻoua naʻa mou ʻalu mamaʻo fau mei he kolo, ka mou talitali teu pe kotoa pē:
5 Ini navanhu vose vandinavo tichafamba takananga guta, zvino kana varume vakauya kuti vazorwa nesu, sezvavakaita pakutanga, tichavatiza.
Pea ko au, mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate au, te mau ʻunuʻunu ʻo ofi ki he kolo: pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻenau haʻu kituʻa kiate kimautolu, ʻo hangē ko e ʻuluaki fai, te mau hola mei honau ʻao,
6 Vachatidzinganisa kusvikira tavakwezvera kure neguta, nokuti vachati, ‘Vari kutitiza sezvavakamboita pakutanga.’ Naizvozvo kana tavatiza,
(He tenau haʻu ko homau tuli, ) kaeʻoua ke mau tautoho mai ʻakinautolu mei he kolo: he tenau pehē, ʻOku nau hola ʻi hotau ʻao, ʻo hangē ko e fuofua fai ko ia te mau hola ai ʻi honau ʻao.
7 imi munofanira kusimuka kubva pamunenge makavanda motora guta. Jehovha Mwari wenyu acharipa mumaoko enyu.
Pea mou toki tuʻu hake ʻae malumu, pea maʻu ʻae kolo: he ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua te ne tukuange ia ki homou nima.
8 Kana matora guta, ripisei nomoto. Muite zvamarayirwa naJehovha, tarirai, ndakurayirai.”
Pea ʻe pehē, ʻi hoʻomou lavaʻi ʻae kolo, te mou tutu leva ʻae kolo ʻaki ʻae afi; ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova ʻe pehē hoʻomou fai. Vakai, kuo u fekau kiate kimoutolu.”
9 Ipapo Joshua akavatuma, vakaenda kunzvimbo yokunovandira vakagara pakati peBheteni neAi, kumavirazuva kweAi, asi Joshua akarara kuvanhu usiku ihwohwo.
Ko ia naʻe fekau ʻe Siosiua kenau ʻalu atu: pea naʻa nau ʻalu ke toka ʻae malumu, pea naʻa nau nofo ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Peteli mo ʻAi, ʻi he potu lulunga ki ʻAi: ka naʻe mohe ʻa Siosiua ʻi he pō ko ia mo e kakai.
10 Mangwana mangwanani Joshua akaronga vanhu, uye iye navatungamiri veIsraeri vakafamba pamberi pavo vachienda kuAi.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hengihengi hake ʻa Siosiua ʻi he pongipongi, ʻo ne lau ʻae kakai, pea ne ʻalu hake, ʻaia mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai ki ʻAi.
11 Hondo yose yaiva naye yakafamba vakaswedera pedyo neguta vakasvika nechemberi kwaro. Vakadzika musasa kumusoro kweAi, mupata uri pakati pavo neguta.
Pea ko e kakai kotoa pē, ʻae kautau naʻe ʻiate ia, naʻe ʻalu hake, pea ʻunuʻunu, ʻo hoko ki he ʻao ʻoe kolo, ʻonau nofo ʻi he potu tokelau ʻo ʻAi: ka naʻe ai ʻae fuʻu luo ʻi honau vahaʻa mo ʻAi.
12 Joshua akanga atora varume vangasvika zviuru zvishanu akavarayira kuti vavandire pakati peBheteri neAi, kumavirazuva kweguta.
Pea naʻa ne fili ʻae kau tangata ʻe toko nima afe nai, ʻo ne tuku ʻakinautolu ke toka malumu, ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Peteli mo ʻAi, ʻi he potu lulunga ʻoe kolo.
13 Vakarayira varwi kuti vatore nzvimbo dzavo, vose vaiva mumusasa nechokumusoro kweguta navakanga vakavandira kumavirazuva kwaro. Usiku ihwohwo Joshua akapinda mumupata.
Pea hili ʻenau fakanofo ʻae kakai, ʻio ʻae tau kotoa pē naʻe ʻi he potu fakatokelau ʻoe kolo, mo e malumu ʻoku fakamohe ʻi lulunga ʻoe kolo, naʻe ʻalu ʻa Siosiua ʻi he pō ko ia ki he loto luo.
14 Zvino mambo weAi paakaona izvi, iye navarume vose veguta vakakurumidza kubuda mangwanani kuti vasangane navaIsraeri varwe panzvimbo yakanga yakatarisana neArabha. Asi haana kuziva kuti akanga avandirwa seri kweguta.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he mamata ki ai ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻAi, naʻa nau fakatoʻotoʻo pea tuʻu hengihengi hake, pea ko e kau tangata ʻoe kolo ne ʻalu kituʻa ke tauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻaia mo hono kakai kotoa pē ʻi he feituʻu naʻe tuʻutuʻuni, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe toafa; pea naʻe ʻikai mahalo ʻe ia ʻoku ai ha malumu kuo tokoto ʻi he tuʻa kolo.
15 Joshua navaIsraeri vose vakavarega vachivadzingirira vachidzokera shure, vakatiza vakananga kugwenga.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe Siosiua mo ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻo hangē kuo teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻi honau ʻao, pea naʻa nau hola ʻi he hala ʻoe toafa.
16 Varume vose veAi vakadaidzwa kuti vavadzingirire, uye vakadzingirira Joshua vachibva vakwezvwa kubva kuguta.
Pea naʻe ui ke fakataha ʻae kakai kotoa pē naʻe ʻi ʻAi kenau tuli kiate kinautolu: pea naʻa nau tuli ʻa Siosiua, pea kuo tohoakiʻi ai ʻakinautolu mei he kolo.
17 Hapana murume kana mumwe akasara muAi kana muBheteri asina kudzingirira vaIsraeri. Vakasiya guta rakashama vakadzingirira vaIsraeri.
Pea naʻe ʻikai toe ha tangata ʻi ʻAi pe ʻi Peteli naʻe ʻikai ʻalu kituʻa ke tuli ʻa ʻIsileli: pea naʻa nau tuku liʻaki pē ʻae kolo ʻonau tuli ki ʻIsileli.
18 Ipapo Jehovha akati kuna Joshua, “Simudza pfumo rawakabata muruoko rwako urinongedzere kuAi, nokuti ndichaisa guta iri muruoko rwako.” Naizvozvo Joshua akanongedzera pfumo rake kuAi.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, “Mafao atu ʻae tao ʻoku ʻi ho nima ʻo hanga ki ʻAi; he te u tuku ia ki ho nima.” Pea naʻe mafao atu ʻe Siosiua ʻae tao naʻe ʻi hono nima ʻo hanga atu ki he kolo.
19 Akati achangoita izvi varume vaiva vakavandira vakasimuka kubva panzvimbo dzavo nokukurumidza vakamhanya vachienda mberi. Vakapinda muguta vakaripamba ndokukurumidza kuritungidza nomoto.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake leva ʻae malumu mei honau potu, pea ʻi heʻene mafao atu hono nima, naʻa nau lele leva: pea naʻa nau hū ki he kolo, ʻo maʻu ia, pea naʻe fakatoʻotoʻo leva ʻo tutu ʻae kolo ʻaki ʻae afi.
20 Varume veAi vakacheuka vakaona utsi hweguta huchikwira kudenga, asi vakashayiwa pokupukunyuka napo kumativi ose, nokuti vaIsraeri vakanga vachitizira kugwenga vakatendeukira vaivatevera.
Pea ʻi he sio kimui ʻae kau tangata ʻo ʻAi, pea nau mamata, pea vakai, ko e ʻohuafi ʻo ʻenau kolo ʻoku ʻalu hake ki langi, naʻe ʻikai hanau mafai ke hola ʻi he hala ni, pe ʻi he hala na: pea ko e kakai naʻe hola ange ki he toafa, naʻa nau tafoki mai ki honau kau tuli.
21 Joshua navaIsraeri vose pavakaona kuti vavandiri vakanga vatora guta uye utsi hwakanga huchikwira kubva muguta, vakatendeuka vakarwisa varume veAi.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻa Siosiua mo ʻIsileli kotoa pē kuo maʻu ʻae kolo ʻe he malumu, pea kuo ʻalu hake ʻae ʻohuafi ʻoe kolo, naʻa nau tafoki leva, ʻo teʻia ʻae kau tangata ʻo ʻAi.
22 Varume vakanga vakavandira vakabudawo muguta kuzorwa navo, naizvozvo vakabva vaiswa pakati pavaIsraeri, vamwe nechokuno, vamwe nechokoko. VaIsraeri vakavauraya zvokusasiya kana mumwe chete wavo ari mupenyu kana vakatiza.
Pea naʻe ʻoho mai [ʻae kautau ]ʻe taha mei he kolo kiate kinautolu; ko ia naʻa nau moʻua ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo ʻIsileli mei mui pea ʻi honau ʻao: pea naʻa nau teʻia ʻakinautolu, pea naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha ʻe hao.
23 Asi vakatora mambo weAi ari mupenyu vakauya naye kuna Joshua.
Pea naʻa nau puke moʻui ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻAi, pea ʻomi ia kia Siosiua.
24 VaIsraeri pavakapedza kuuraya varume vose veAi nomunondo kusango nokurenje kwavakanga vavadzinganisira, uye mushure mokunge mumwe nomumwe wavo aurayiwa nomunondo, vose vakadzokera kuAi vakauraya vose vaivamo.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he fakaʻosi ʻe ʻIsileli hono teʻia ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo ʻAi ʻi he ngoue, pea mo e toafa ʻaia naʻa nau tuli ʻakinautolu ki ai, pea ʻi he ʻosi ʻenau hinga ki he mata ʻoe heletā, pea nau ʻauha, naʻe toki haʻu ʻae kakai ʻIsileli kotoa pē ki ʻAi, pea tā ʻaki ia ʻae mata ʻoe heletā,
25 Zuva iroro kwakafa varume navakadzi vaisvika zviuru gumi nezviviri, vanhu vose veAi.
Pea naʻe pehē, ko kinautolu naʻe tō ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻae tangata mo e fefine, ko e tokotaha mano, mo e toko ua afe, ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo ʻAi.
26 Nokuti Joshua haana kudzosa ruoko rwake rwakanga rwakasimudza pfumo kusvikira aparadza vose vaigara muAi.
He naʻe ʻikai toe toʻo mai ʻe Siosiua hono nima, ʻaia naʻa ne mafao ai ʻae tao, kaeʻoua ke ʻosiʻosingamālie hono fakaʻauha ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻo ʻAi.
27 Asi vaIsraeri vakazvitorera zvipfuwo nezvakapambwa muguta iri, sezvakanga zvarayirwa Joshua naJehovha.
Ka ko e fanga manu mo e vete ʻoe kolo ko ia, naʻe toʻo ia ʻe ʻIsileli ko e koloa kiate kinautolu, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻa ne fekau kia Siosiua.
28 Naizvozvo Joshua akapisa Ai akariita murwi, rikava dongo kusvika nanhasi.
Pea naʻe tutu ʻe Siosiua ʻa ʻAi, ʻo ne ngaohi ko e ʻesi ʻo taʻengata, ʻio, ko e potu liʻaki ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
29 Akasungirira mambo weAi mumuti akamusiya kusvikira manheru. Zuva rodoka, Joshua akavarayira kuti vaturure chitunha chake mumuti vachikande pasi pasuo reguta. Vakaitawo murwi mukuru wamatombo, uchiripo nanhasi.
Pea naʻe tautau ʻe ia ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻAi ʻo aʻu ki he efiafi: pea ʻi he ʻalu hifo ʻae laʻā, naʻe fekau ʻe Siosiua kenau tuku hifo hono ʻangaʻanga mei he ʻakau, ʻo lī ia ki he tefitoʻi matapā ʻoe kolo, pea naʻe fokotuʻu ki ai ʻae fuʻu ʻesi maka, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
30 Zvino Joshua akavakira Jehovha, Mwari waIsraeri, aritari pagomo reEbhari,
Pea naʻe fokotuʻu ʻe Siosiua ʻae feilaulauʻanga kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he moʻunga ko Ipale,
31 sezvakanga zvarayirwa vaIsraeri naMozisi muranda waJehovha. Akaivaka sezvazvakanyorwa muBhuku roMurayiro waMozisi. Yakanga iri aritari yamabwe asina kuvezwa, hapana kumboshandiswa mudziyo wesimbi pairi. Vakapa kuna Jehovha zvipiriso zvinopiswa uye vakabayira zvipiriso zvokuwadzana pairi.
‌ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo hangē ko ia kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ʻoe fono ʻa Mōsese, “ko e feilaulauʻanga, ʻoe ngaahi maka kātoa, ʻaia kuo ʻikai hiki ʻe ha tangata ha ukamea ki ai:” pea naʻa nau ʻatu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau tutu kia Sihova, mo e ngaahi feilaulau fakalelei.
32 Zvino ipapo, pamberi pavaIsraeri, Joshua akanyorazve pamabwe murayiro waMozisi, waakanga ambonyora.
Pea naʻe tohi ʻe ia ʻi ai ki he ngaahi maka hono hiki ʻoe fono ʻa Mōsese, ʻaia naʻa ne tohi ʻi he ʻao ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
33 VaIsraeri vose navatorwa, navakuru vavo navatariri vavo, navatongi vavo, vakanga vakamira kumativi maviri eareka yesungano yaJehovha, vakatarisa avo vakanga vakaitakura, vaprista, vakanga vari vaRevhi. Imwe hafu yavanhu yakanga yakamira pamberi pegomo reGerizimu uye imwe hafu yakamira pamberi pegomo reEbhari, sezvakanga zvarayirwa naMozisi muranda waJehovha pakutanga paakati vanhu veIsraeri varopafadzwe.
Pea ko ʻIsileli kotoa pē, mo ʻenau kau mātuʻa, mo e kau matāpule, mo e kau fakamaau, naʻa nau tutuʻu fakataha mo e muli, mo ia naʻe tupu ʻiate kinautolu ʻi he potu toʻomataʻu ʻoe puha, mo e potu toʻohema, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki ko e kau Livai, ʻaia naʻe haʻamo ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻo Sihova; ko honau vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha naʻe hanga ki he moʻunga ko Kelisimi, mo honau vaeuaʻanga ʻe taha naʻe hanga ki he moʻunga ko Ipale; ʻo hangē ko e tomuʻa fekau ʻa Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova kiate kinautolu, koeʻuhi ke nau tāpuakiʻi ʻae kakai ʻo ʻIsileli.
34 Mushure maizvozvo, Joshua akaverenga mashoko ose omurayiro, maropafadzo nezvituko sokunyorwa kwazvakaitwa muBhuku roMurayiro.
Pea hili ia naʻa ne lau ke ʻosi ʻae ngaahi lea kotoa pē ʻoe fono, ko e ngaahi tāpuaki, mo e ngaahi fakamalaʻia, ʻo fakatatau mo ia kotoa pē kuo tohi ʻi he tohi ʻoe fono.
35 Hapana shoko kana rimwe pane zvose zvakanga zvarayirwa naMozisi, risina kuverengerwa ungano yose yavaIsraeri naJoshua, kusanganisira vakadzi navana, navatorwa vaigara pakati pavo.
Pea naʻe ʻikai ha foʻi lea ʻe liaki ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai lau ʻe Siosiua ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai fakataha kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, mo e kau fefine mo e ngaahi fānau siʻi, pea mo e kau muli naʻe nofo fiemālie mo kinautolu.
