Josue 10
1 Nangyari nga, nang mabalitaan ni Adoni-sedec na hari sa Jerusalem na kung paanong nasakop ni Josue ang Hari at nagibang lubos (na kung paanong kaniyang ginawa sa Jerico at sa hari niyaon, gayon ang kaniyang ginawa sa Hai at sa hari niyaon), at kung paanong nakipagpayapaan sa kanila ang mga taga Gabaon, at nangasa gitna nila;
Later, Adonizedek, the king of Jerusalem, heard that Joshua’s army had captured Ai [town] and had destroyed everything in the town. He heard that they had done to the people of Ai and to their king the same thing that they had done to the people of Jericho and their king. He also heard that the people of Gibeon [city] had made a peace treaty with the Israeli people, and that the people of Gibeon were now living near the Israelis and being protected by them.
2 Ay natakot silang mainam, sapagka't ang Gabaon ay malaking bayan na gaya ng isa sa mga bayan ng hari, at sapagka't lalong malaki kay sa Hai, at ang lahat na lalake roon ay mga makapangyarihan.
Because of that, he and the people whom he ruled became very afraid, because Gibeon was an important city, like the other cities that had kings. And [even though] Gibeon was a larger city than Ai and all its soldiers were good fighters, [they thought Joshua’s army might defeat them].
3 Kaya't si Adoni-sedec na hari sa Jerusalem ay nagsugo kay Oham na hari sa Hebron, at kay Phiream na hari sa Jarmuth, at kay Japhia, na hari sa Lachis, at kay Debir na hari sa Eglon na ipinasasabi,
So King Adonizedek sent a message to Hosham the king of Hebron [city], to Piram the king of Jarmuth [city], to Jarmuth the king of Lachish [city], and to Debir the king of Eglon [city].
4 Sampahin ninyo ako at inyong tulungan ako, at saktan natin ang Gabaon: sapagka't nakipagpayapaan kay Josue at sa mga anak ni Israel.
In the message he said, “Please come up with your armies and help me to attack Gibeon, because the people of Gibeon have made a peace treaty with Joshua and the Israelis.”
5 Kaya't ang limang hari ng mga Amorrheo, ang hari sa Jerusalem, ang hari sa Hebron, ang hari sa Jarmuth, ang hari sa Lachis, ang hari sa Eglon, ay nagpipisan at sumampa, sila at ang lahat nilang hukbo, at humantong laban sa Gabaon, at nakipagdigma laban doon.
So those five kings who ruled all the groups who were descendants of Amor—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Debir—came up with all of their soldiers and surrounded the city. Then they prepared to attack it.
6 At ang mga tao sa Gabaon ay nagsugo kay Josue sa kampamento sa Gilgal, na sinasabi, Huwag mong papanlambutin ang iyong kamay sa iyong mga lingkod; sampahin mo kaming madali, at iligtas mo kami, at tulungan mo kami: sapagka't ang lahat ng mga hari ng mga Amorrheo na nangananahan sa lupaing maburol ay nagpipisan laban sa amin.
So the people of Gibeon sent a message to Joshua while he was in the camp at Gilgal. They said, “We are your servants. So do not forsake us. Come up to us quickly and save us! Help us, because the kings of all of the groups descended from Amor and their armies have joined their forces and have come from the hilly area to attack us!”
7 Sa gayo'y sumampa si Josue mula sa Gilgal, siya at ang buong bayang pangdigma na kasama niya, at ang lahat ng mga makapangyarihang lalake na matatapang.
So Joshua and all his army, including the soldiers who were his best fighting men, marched up from Gilgal.
8 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Josue, Huwag mo silang katakutan: sapagka't aking ibinigay sila sa iyong mga kamay; walang lalake roon sa kanila na tatayo sa harap mo.
Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of those armies! I will enable your army to defeat them [IDM]. None of them will be able to (resist/fight and defeat) your army.”
9 Si Josue nga ay naparoong bigla sa kanila; siya'y sumampa mula sa Gilgal buong gabi.
Joshua’s army marched all night and arrived very early in the morning.
10 At nilito sila ng Panginoon sa harap ng Israel, at kaniyang pinatay sila ng malaking pagpatay sa Gabaon, at hinabol niya sila sa daan na sampahan sa Beth-horon, at sinaktan niya sila hanggang sa Azeca, at sa Maceda.
They attacked their enemies before anyone knew that they had come. Yahweh caused their enemies to (become very confused/start running in all directions) when they saw the Israeli army. As a result, the Israeli army defeated them very severely at Gibeon [and killed many of them]. The rest of them fled along the road that goes up to Beth-Horon. But the Israeli army pursued them and killed them all along the road that goes to Azekah and Makkedah towns.
11 At nangyari, na habang tumatakas sa harap ng Israel samantalang sila'y nasa babaan sa Beth-horon, na binagsakan sila ng Panginoon sa Azeca ng mga malaking bato na mula sa langit, at sila'y namatay: sila'y higit na namatayan sa pamamagitan ng mga batong granizo kay sa pinatay ng mga anak ni Israel sa pamamagitan ng tabak.
As they fled in front of the Israeli army, Yahweh threw down huge hailstones from the sky. As a result, more of them died from hailstones falling on them than died as a result of the Israeli army killing them with swords.
12 Nang magkagayo'y nagsalita si Josue sa Panginoon nang araw na ibinigay ng Panginoon ang mga Amorrheo sa harap ng mga anak ni Israel; at kaniyang sinabi sa paningin ng Israel, Araw, tumigil ka sa Gabaon; At ikaw, Buwan, sa libis ng Ajalon.
On the day that Yahweh enabled the Israeli army to defeat the groups who were descendants of Amor, Joshua said to Yahweh while the Israeli people were listening, “Yahweh, cause the sun to stand still over Gibeon, and cause the moon to not move when it is over Aijalon Valley.”
13 At ang araw ay tumigil, at ang buwan ay huminto, Hanggang sa ang bansa ay nakapanghiganti sa kaniyang mga kaaway. Hindi ba ito nakasulat sa aklat ni Jasher? At ang araw ay tumigil sa gitna ng langit, at hindi nagmadaling lumubog sa isang buong araw.
And that is what happened. The sun stood still, and the moon did not move, until the Israeli army defeated their enemies. That is what has been written in the book that Jashar wrote. The sun stopped while it was in the middle of the sky, and did not (set/go down) for about a whole day.
14 At hindi nagkaroon ng araw na gaya niyaon bago nangyari yaon o pagkatapos niyaon, na ang Panginoon ay nakinig sa tinig ng tao: sapagka't ipinakipaglaban ng Panginoon ang Israel.
On that day Yahweh did a great miracle that someone asked him to do. There was never a day like that previously, and there has never been a day like that since. Yahweh was certainly fighting for the Israeli people!
15 At si Josue ay bumalik at ang buong Israel na kasama niya, sa kampamento sa Gilgal.
After Joshua’s army defeated their enemies, they all returned to their camp at Gilgal.
16 At ang limang haring ito ay tumakas at nagsipagkubli sa yungib sa Maceda.
While the enemy soldiers were fleeing from Joshua’s army, their five kings also fled and hid in a cave at Makkedah [town].
17 At nasaysay kay Josue, na sinasabi, Ang limang hari ay nasumpungan, na nakatago sa yungib sa Maceda.
Then someone told Joshua, “We found those five kings, hiding in a cave at Makkedah!”
18 At sinabi ni Josue, Maggulong kayo ng mga malaking bato sa bunganga ng yungib, at maglagay kayo ng mga lalake roon upang magbantay sa kanila:
When Joshua heard that, he said, “Roll some very large rocks to the entrance of the cave so that the kings cannot escape, and leave some soldiers there to guard it.
19 Nguni't huwag kayong magsitigil; inyong habulin ang inyong mga kaaway, at inyong sasaktan ang kahulihulihan sa kanila; huwag ninyong tiising pumasok, sa kanilang mga bayan: sapagka't ibinigay sila ng Panginoon ninyong Dios sa inyong kamay.
But do not stay there! Pursue our enemies! Attack them from behind! Do not allow them to escape to their cities, because Yahweh, our God, will enable you to defeat/kill them. [IDM]”
20 At nangyari, nang makatapos si Josue at ang mga anak ni Israel ng pagpatay ng malaking pagpatay sa kanila, hanggang sa nangalipol at ang labi na natira sa kanila ay pumasok sa mga nakukutaang bayan,
So Joshua’s army did what he told them to do. They killed almost all of the enemy soldiers, but a few of them were able to reach their cities and be safe inside the walls of the cities.
21 Na ang buong bayan ay bumalik sa kampamento kay Josue sa Maceda na tiwasay: walang maggalaw ng kaniyang dila laban sa kaninoman sa mga anak ni Israel.
Then Joshua’s army returned to Joshua, who was still in their camp at Makkedah. No one in the land dared to criticize [MTY] the Israelis.
22 Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ni Josue, Inyong buksan ang bunganga ng yungib, at inyong ilabas sa akin ang limang haring iyan sa yungib.
Then Joshua said, “Open the entrance of the cave, and bring out to me those five kings!”
23 At kanilang ginawang gayon, at inilabas ang limang haring yaon mula sa yungib, ang hari sa Jerusalem, ang hari sa Hebron, ang hari sa Jarmuth, ang hari sa Lachis, ang hari sa Eglon.
So the soldiers brought those five kings out of the cave—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon.
24 At nangyari, nang kanilang ilabas ang mga haring yaon kay Josue na ipinatawag ni Josue ang lahat na lalake sa Israel, at sinabi sa mga pinuno ng mga lalaking mangdidigma na sumama sa kaniya, Lumapit kayo, ilagay ninyo ang inyong mga paa sa mga leeg ng mga haring ito. At sila'y lumapit at inilagay ang kanilang mga paa sa mga leeg ng mga yaon.
When they brought those kings to Joshua [and forced them to lie on the ground], he summoned all the Israeli soldiers, and then he said to the army commanders, “Come here and put your feet on the necks of these kings!” So the commanders did that.
25 At sinabi ni Josue sa kanila, Huwag kayong matakot, ni manglupaypay; kayo'y magpakalakas at magpakatapang na maigi: sapagka't ganito ang gagawin ng Panginoon sa lahat ninyong mga kaaway na inyong kinakalaban.
Then Joshua said to them, “Do not be afraid of any of our enemies! Never be discouraged! Be strong and courageous. This is what Yahweh will do to all the enemies you will fight!”
26 At pagkatapos ay sinaktan sila ni Josue, at ipinapatay sila, at ibinitin sila sa limang puno ng kahoy; at sila'y nangabitin sa mga puno ng kahoy hanggang sa kinahapunan.
Then Joshua killed each of the five kings with his sword, and told his soldiers to hang the bodies of the five kings on trees. So they did that, and they left the bodies hanging on the trees until sunset.
27 At nangyari sa paglubog ng araw, na si Josue ay nagutos at kanilang ibinaba sa mga punong kahoy, at kanilang inihagis sa yungib na kanilang pinagtaguan, at kanilang nilagyan ng mga malaking bato ang bunganga ng yungib hanggang sa araw na ito.
At sunset, Joshua told them to take the bodies down from the trees and throw them into the cave where they had been hiding. So the soldiers did that, and then they put those large rocks at the entrance of the cave again. Those rocks are still there.
28 At sinakop ni Josue ang Maceda nang araw na yaon, at sinugatan ng talim ng tabak, at ang hari niyaon; kaniyang lubos silang nilipol at ang lahat na tao na nandoon, wala siyang iniwang nalabi: at kaniyang ginawa sa hari sa Maceda ang gaya ng kaniyang ginawa sa hari ng Jerico.
That is how Joshua’s army attacked and captured Makkedah. They killed the king and everyone else in the town. They did not leave anyone alive. They did to the king of Makkedah the same thing that they had done to the king of Jericho.
29 At si Josue ay dumaan mula sa Maceda, at ang buong Israel na kasama niya, hanggang sa Libna, at lumaban sa Libna:
That same day, Joshua and his Israeli army went [southwest] from Makkedah to Libnah [city] and attacked it.
30 At ibinigay rin ng Panginoon, sangpu ng hari niyaon, sa kamay ng Israel; at kaniyang sinugatan ng talim ng tabak, at ang lahat na tao na nandoon; wala siyang iniwan doon; at kaniyang ginawa sa hari niyaon ang gaya ng kaniyang ginawa sa hari sa Jerico.
Yahweh enabled the Israelis to conquer [MTY] that city and its king. They killed everyone in the city; they did not (spare anyone/allow anyone to remain alive). They killed the king of Libnah just like they had killed the king of Jericho.
31 At dumaan si Josue mula sa Libna, at ang buong Israel na kasama niya, hanggang sa Lachis, at humantong laban doon, at lumaban doon.
Then Joshua and his army went [south] from Libnah to Lachish [city]. They surrounded the city and attacked it.
32 At ibinigay ng Panginoon ang Lachis sa kamay ng Israel at kaniyang sinakop sa ikalawang araw, at sinugatan ng talim ng tabak, at ang lahat na tao na nandoon, ayon sa lahat na ginawa niya sa Libna.
On the second day of the battle, Yahweh enabled the Israelis to conquer [MTY] the city. And like they had done at Libnah, they killed everyone [DOU] in the city.
33 Nang magkagayo'y sumampa si Horam na hari sa Gezer upang tulungan ang Lachis; at sinaktan ni Josue siya at ang kaniyang bayan, hanggang sa walang iniwan siya.
King Horam from Gezer [city and his army] came to help [the soldiers of] Lachish, but Joshua’s [army] defeated Horam and his army, and did not allow any of them to remain alive.
34 At dumaan si Josue mula sa Lachis, at ang buong Israel na kasama niya, hanggang sa Eglon; at sila'y humantong laban doon, at nakipaglaban doon;
Then Joshua and his army went [west] from Lachish to Eglon [city]. They surrounded the city and attacked it.
35 At kanilang sinakop nang araw na yaon, at sinugatan ng talim ng tabak, at ang lahat na tao na nandoon ay kaniyang lubos na nilipol nang araw na yaon, ayon sa lahat niyang ginawa sa Lachis.
On that day, they captured the city and killed [MTY] everyone in it [DOU], just like they had done at Lachish.
36 At sumampa si Josue mula sa Eglon, at ang buong Israel na kasama niya, hanggang sa Hebron; at sila'y nakipaglaban doon:
Then Joshua and his army went [west from Eglon] up [into the hills] to Hebron [city]. They attacked the city
37 At kanilang sinakop, at sinugatan ng talim ng tabak, at ang hari niyaon, at ang lahat ng mga bayan niyaon, at ang lahat na tao na nandoon; wala siyang iniwang nalabi, ayon sa lahat niyang ginawa sa Eglon; kundi kaniyang lubos na nilipol, at ang lahat na tao na nandoon.
and captured it. They killed the king and everyone else, just like they had done at Eglon. They did not allow anyone to remain alive.
38 At si Josue at ang buong Israel na kasama niya ay bumalik sa Debir; at nakipaglaban doon:
Then Joshua and his army turned [south] and went to Debir [city] and attacked it.
39 At kaniyang sinakop at ang hari niyaon, at ang lahat ng mga bayan niyaon; at kanilang sinugatan ng talim ng tabak at lubos na nilipol ang lahat na tao na nandoon: wala siyang iniwang nalabi: kung paano ang kaniyang ginawa sa Hebron, ay gayon ang kaniyang ginawa sa Debir, at sa hari niyaon; gaya ng kaniyang ginawa sa Libna at sa hari niyaon.
They captured the city and its king, and also captured the nearby towns. Then they killed everyone [DOU]; they did to the people there the same thing that they had done at Hebron and Libnah.
40 Ganito sinaktan ni Josue ang buong lupain, ang lupaing maburol, at ang Timugan, at ang mababang lupain, at ang mga tagudtod, at ang lahat ng hari niyaon; wala siyang iniwang nalabi: kundi kaniyang lubos na nilipol ang lahat na humihinga, gaya ng iniutos ng Panginoon ng Dios ng Israel.
That is how Joshua [and his army] conquered the entire southern part of Canaan. They defeated the kings [who ruled] the hilly area, the dry southern area, the [western] foothills, and the [eastern] slopes. They killed everyone [DOU] in those areas; they did not allow anyone to remain alive.
41 At sinaktan sila ni Josue mula sa Cades-barnea hanggang sa Gaza, at ang buong lupain ng Gosen, hanggang sa Gabaon.
Joshua’s soldiers captured all the cities from Kadesh-Barnea [city] in the far south to Gaza [city] near the coast, including all the Goshen area, and north to Gibeon [city].
42 At ang lahat ng mga haring ito at ang kanilang lupain ay sinakop ni Josue na paminsan, sapagka't ipinakipaglaban ng Panginoon, ng Dios ng Israel.
At that one time, Joshua’s army conquered all the kings and captured all the territory that they [ruled]. They were able to do that because Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli people [worship], was fighting for them.
43 At si Josue at ang buong Israel na kasama niya ay bumalik sa kampamento sa Gilgal.
Then Joshua and his army returned to their camp at Gilgal.
