< Josue 10 >
1 Ngayon narinig ni Adoni-sedec, hari ng Jerusalem na nasakop ni Josue ang Ai at tuluyang winasak ito, gaya ng ginawa niya sa Jerico at sa hari nito. At narinig nila kung paano gumawa ng kapayaapan ang bayan ng Gabaon sa Israel at namumuhay na kasama nila.
Now it came to pass, when Adoni-zedek, the king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had captured 'Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; [that] as he had done to Jericho and its king, so had he done to 'Ai and its king; and that the inhabitants of Gib'on had made peace with Israel, and were in the midst of them:
2 Ang bayan ng Jerusalem ay matindi ang takot dahil ang Gibeon ay isang napakalaking lungsod, gaya ng isa sa mga maharlikang mga lungsod. Ito ay mas malaki kaysa sa Ai, at ang lahat ng kalalakihan nito ay magigiting na mandirigma.
That they were greatly afraid; because Gib'on was a great city, like one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than 'Ai, and all the men thereof were mighty.
3 Kaya si Adoni-sedec, hari ng Jerusalem, ay nagpadala ng isang mensahe kay Oham, hari ng Hebron, kay Piram, hari ng Jarmuth, kay Japhia, hari ng Lachish, at kay Debir, hari ng Eglon:
Therefore Adoni-zedek the king of Jerusalem sent unto Hoham the king of Hebron, and unto Piram the king of Yarmuth, and unto Yaphia', the king of Lachish, and unto Debir the king of 'Eglon, saying,
4 Umakyat kayo sa akin at tulungan ako. Salakayin natin ang Gabaon dahil gumawa sila ng kapayapaan kay Josue at sa bayan ng Israel.”
Come up unto me, and help me, that we may smite Gib'on; for it hath made peace with Joshua and with the children of Israel.
5 Ang limang hari ng Amoreo, ang hari ng Jerusalem, ang hari ng Hebron, ang Hari ng Jarmuth, ang hari ng Lachish, at hari ng Eglon ay umakyat, sila at lahat ng kanilang mga hukbo. Pinaghandaan nila ang kanilang kinalalagyan laban sa Gabaon, at sinalakay nila ito.
And the five kings of the Emorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Yarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of 'Eglon, assembled themselves together, and went up, they and all their camps, and encamped before Gib'on, and made war against it.
6 Ang bayan ng Gabaon ay nagpadala ng isang mensahe kay Josue at sa mga hukbo sa Gilgal. Sinabi nila, “Magmadali kayo! Huwag ninyong alisin ang inyong mga kamay sa inyong mga alipin. Umakyat kayo rito ng mabilisan at iligtas kami. Tulungan ninyo kami, dahil ang lahat ng hari ng mga Amoreo na nakatira sa maburol na bansa ay nagtipon ng sama-sama para salakayin kami.”
And the men of Gib'on sent unto Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Do not withdraw thy hand from thy servants: come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us; for all the kings of the Emorites that dwell in the mountains are assembled together against us.
7 Umakyat si Josue mula sa Gilgal, siya at ang mga lalaking mandirigma, at lahat ng lumalaban na kalalakihan.
And Joshua went up from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor.
8 Sinabi ni Yahweh kay Josue, “Huwag kang matakot sa kanila. Ibinigay ko sila sa inyong mga kamay. Wala isa sa kanila na makakapigil sa inyong pagsalakay.”
And the Lord said unto Joshua, Be not afraid of them; for into thy hand have I delivered them: there shall not stand a man of them before thee.
9 Madaling nakarating si Josue sa kanila, naglakad ng buong magdamag mula sa Gilgal.
And Joshua came unto them suddenly; the whole night he went up from Gilgal.
10 At nilito ni Yahweh ang mga kaaway sa harap ng Israel— na kung saan napatay sila sa isang malawakang pagpatay sa Gabaon, at tinugis sila sa daan paakyat ng Beth Horon, at pinatay sila sa daan ng Azeka at Maceda.
And the Lord brought them in confusion before Israel, and they smote them with a great slaughter at Gib'on, and pursued them by the way of the ascent to Beth-choron, and smote them up to 'Azekah, and up to Makkedah.
11 Habang tumatakbo sila mula sa Israel, pababa sa burol ng Beth Horon, hinulog ni Yahweh sa kanila ang mga malalaking bato mula sa langit hanggang sa Azeka, at namatay sila. Mas marami ang namatay dahil sa mga bato kaysa sa mga napatay sa pamamagitan ng mga espada sa mga kalalakihan ng Israel.
And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, while they were in the declivity of Beth-choron, that the Lord cast down upon them great stones from heaven, up to 'Azekah, and they died: there were more who died by means of the hailstones than those whom the children of Israel had slain with the sword.
12 Pagkatapos nakipag-usap si Josue kay Yahweh sa araw na iyon na binigyan ni Yahweh ng tagumpay ang kalalakihan ng Israel laban sa mga Amoreo. Ito ang sinabi ni Josue kay Yahweh sa harap ng Israel, “Araw, manatili sa Gabaon, at buwan, sa lambak ng Ajalon.”
Then spoke Joshua to the Lord on the day when the Lord delivered up the Emorites before the children of Israel, and he said before the eyes of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gib'on; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ayalon.
13 Ang araw ay nanatili pa rin, at ang buwan tumigil sa paggalaw hanggang ang bansa ay naghiganti sa kanilang mga kaaway. Hindi ba ito nakasulat sa Ang Aklat ni Jashar? Nanatili ang araw sa gitna ng langit; hindi ito bumaba sa isang buong araw.
And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Yashar? And the sun stood still in the midst of the heavens, and hastened not to go down about a whole day.
14 Wala pang nangyari sa anumang araw gaya ng pangyayaring ito dati o pagkatapos nito, nang sinunod ni Yahweh ang salita ng isang tao. Dahil si Yahweh ay nakikipagdigmaan sa kapakanan ng Israel.
And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man; for the Lord fought for Israel.
15 Si Josue at ang buong Israel na kasama niya ay bumalik sa kampo ng Gilgal.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.
16 Ngayon nakatakas ang limang hari at nagtago sila sa loob ng kuweba sa Maceda.
But these five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
17 Sinabi ito kay Josue, “Natagpuan sila! —ang limang hari na nagtago sa loob ng kuweba sa Maceda!”
And it was told to Joshua, saying, The five kings have been found hidden in the cave at Makkedah.
18 Sinabi ni Josue, “Igulong ang malaking mga bato sa bukana ng kuweba at maglagay ng mga sundalo roon para bantayan sila.
And Joshua said, Roll great stones to the mouth of the cave, and set men over it to guard them;
19 Huwag kayong manatili roon. Tugisin ang inyong mga kaaway at salakayin sila mula sa likuran. Huwag silang pahintulutang makapasok sa loob ng kanilang mga lungsod dahil si Yahweh ang inyong Diyos ibinigay na sila sa inyong mga kamay.”
But you, do ye not stay, pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of them: suffer them not to enter into their cities; for the Lord your God hath delivered them into your hand.
20 Si Josue at ang mga anak ni Israel ay tinapos ang pagpatau sa kanila sa isang napakatinding pagpatay, hanggang sila ay halos tuluyan ng mawasak; ilan lamang ang nakaligtas na tumakas sa mga pinatibay na mga lungsod.
And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of smiting them with a very great defeat, till they were all spent, and those that escaped had fled from them and entered into the fortified cities,
21 Pagkatapos bumalik ang buong hukbo ng mapayapa kay Josue sa mga kampo sa Maceda. At walang sinuman ang nangahas magsalita ng isang salita laban sa sinumang bayan ng Israel.
That all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: no one pointed against any man of the children of Israel his tongue.
22 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Josue, “Buksan ang bukana ng kuweba at mula sa kuweba dalhin sa akin ang limang haring ito.”
Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring out unto me those five kings out of the cave.
23 Ginawa nila gaya ng sinabi niya. Dinala nila sa kaniya ang limang hari mula sa kuweba—ang hari ng Jerusalem, ang hari ng Hebron, ang hari ng Jarmuth, ang hari ng Lachish, at ang hari ng Eglon.
And they did so, and brought forth unto him those five kings out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Yarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of 'Eglon.
24 At nang dinala nila ang mga hari kay Josue, ipinatawag niya ang bawat kalalakihan ng Israel, at sinabi niya sa mga pinuno ng mga sundalo na nakasama niya sa labanan, “Ilagay ninyo ang inyong mga paa sa kanilang mga leeg.” Kaya lumapit sila at inilagay ang kanilang mga paa sa kanilang mga leeg.
And it came to pass, when they brought out those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the chiefs of the men of war who had gone with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon their necks.
25 Pagkatapos sinabi niya sa kanila, “Huwag kayong matakot at huwag kayong mabagabag. Maging malakas at matapang. Ito ang gagawin ni Yahweh sa lahat ng inyong mga kaaway na kakalabanin ninyo.”
And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be disheartened, be strong and of good courage; for thus will the Lord do unto all your enemies against whom ye fight.
26 Pagkatapos sinalakay at pinatay ni Josue ang mga hari. Ibinitin niya sila sa ibabaw ng limang puno. Nakabitin sila sa mga puno hanggang gabi.
And Joshua smote them afterward, and slew them, and hanged them on five trees; and they remained hanging upon the trees until the evening.
27 Nang palubog na ang araw, nagbigay ng mga utos si Josue, at ibinaba sila mula sa mga puno at inihagis sila sa loob ng kuweba kung saan sila nagtago. Nilagyan nila ng malalaking bato ang bukana ng kuweba. Ang mga batong iyon nanatili pa rin hanggang sa araw na ito.
And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had been hidden; and they placed great stones upon the mouth of the cave, [which remain] even until this very day.
28 Sa ganitong paraan, nasakop ni Josue ang Maceda sa araw na iyon at pinatay ang bawat isa gamit ang espada, kasama ang hari nito. Tuluyan niya silang winasak at bawat nabubuhay na nilalang doon. Wala siyang itinirang mga nakaligtas. Ginawa niya ito sa hari ng Maceda gaya ng ginawa niya sa hari ng Jerico.
And Joshua captured Makkedah on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and its king he devoted, them, and all the souls that were therein; he left none that escaped; and he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done unto the king of Jericho.
29 Dumaan si Josue at buong Israel mula sa Maceda patungong Libna. Pumunta siya sa labanan sa Libna.
Then did Joshua, and all Israel with him, pass from Makkedah unto Libnah; and he fought against Libnah;
30 Ibinigay din ni Yahweh ito sa kamay ng Israel—kasama ang kanilang hari. Sinalakay ni Josue ang bawat nabubuhay na nilalang sa loob nito gamit ag espada. Wala siyang iniwang nakaligtas na buhay sa loob nito. Ginawa niya sa hari gaya ng ginawa niya sa hari ng Jerico.
And the Lord delivered it also into the hand of Israel, with its king; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein; he left none in it that escaped; and he did unto its king as he had done unto the king of Jericho.
31 Pagkatapos dumaan si Josue at ang buong Israel mula sa Libna patungong Lachish. Nagkampo siya dito at nakipagdigmaan laban dito.
And Joshua, and all Israel with him, passed from Libnah unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it;
32 Ibinigay ni Yahweh ang Lachish sa kamay ng Israel. Nasakop ni Josue ito ng ikalawang araw. Sinalakay niya gamit ang kaniyang espada bawat nabubuhay na nilalang na nasa loob nito, gaya ng ginawa niya sa Libna.
And the Lord delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel; and he captured it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein: just as he had done to Libnah.
33 Pagkatapos dumating si Horam, hari ng Gezer para tulungan ang Lachish. Sinalakay siya ni Josue at ang kaniyang hukbo hanggang walang nakaligtas na naiwan.
Then came up Horam the king of Gezer to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none that escaped.
34 Pagkatapos dumaan si Josue at buong Israel mula sa Lachish patungong Eglon. Nagkampo sila rito at nakipagdigmaan laban dito,
And Joshua and all Israel with him passed from Lachish unto 'Eglon; and they encamped against it, and fought against it;
35 at nasakop ito ng parehong araw. Sinalakay nila ito gamit ang espada at tuluyan nilang winasak ang lahat dito, gaya ng ginawa ni Josue sa Lachish.
And they captured it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword; and all the souls that were therein he devoted on that day: just as he had done to Lachish.
36 Pagkatapos dumaan si Josue at buong Israel mula sa Eglon patungong Hebron. Nakipagdigmaan sila laban dito.
And Joshua and all Israel with him went up from 'Eglon unto Hebron; and they fought against it;
37 Nasakop nila ito at sinalakay gamit ang espada ang lahat dito, kasama ang hari at ang lahat ng mga nayon na nakapalibot dito. Tuluyan nilang winasak ang bawat buhay na nilalang dito, walang iniwang nakaligtas, gaya ng ginawa ni Josue sa Eglon. Tuluyan niyang winasak ito, at ang bawat buhay na nilalang dito.
And they captured it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and its king, and all its cities, and all the souls that were therein; he left none that escaped, just as he had done to 'Eglon; and he devoted it, and all the souls that were therein.
38 Pagkatapos bumalik si Josue, at ang buong hukbo ni Israel na kasama niya, at dumaan sila sa Debir at nakipagdigmaan laban dito.
And Joshua and all Israel with him returned to Debir; and fought against it;
39 Nasakop niya ito at ang hari, at ang lahat ng mga katabing nayon nito. Sinalakay nila ang mga ito gamit ang espada at tuluyang winasak ang bawat nabubuhay na nilalang dito. Hindi nag-iwan ng mga nakaligtas si Josue, gaya ng ginawa niya sa Hebron at ang hari nito, gaya ng ginawa niya sa Libnah at ang hari nito.
And he captured it, and its king, and all its cities; and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and devoted all the souls that were therein; he left none that escaped: as he had done to Hebron, so did he to Debir and to its king; and as he had done to Libnah and to its king.
40 Nasakop ni Josue ang lahat ng lupain, ang maburol na bansa, ang Negev, ang mga kapatagan, at ang mga mababang burol. Sa lahat ng kanilang mga hari wala siyang iniwang nakaligtas. Tuluyan niyang winasak ang bawat nabubuhay na bagay, gaya ni Yahweh, ang Diyos ng Israel, na iniutos.
And Joshua smote all the country, the mountain, and the south, and the lowlands, and the declivities, and all their kings; he left none that escaped; and all that breathed he utterly destroyed, as the Lord, the God of Israel had commanded.
41 Sinalakay sila ni Josuegamit ang espada mula Kades Barnea hanggang Gaza, at lahat ng bansa sa Gosen hanggang Gabaon.
And Joshua smote them from Kadesh-barnea' even unto Gazzah, and all the country of Goshen, even up to Gib'on.
42 Nasakop ni Josue ang lahat ng mga haring ito at ang kanilang lupain sa isang iglap dahil si Yahweh, ang Diyos ng Israel, nakipaglaban para sa Israel.
And all these kings and their land did Joshua capture at one time; because the Lord, the God of Israel fought for Israel.
43 Pagkatapos si Josue, at ang lahat ng Israel kasama niya, ay bumalik kampo sa Gilgal.
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, unto the camp to Gilgal.
