1 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ko e ngaahi tuʻi ʻaia naʻe ʻi he potu mai ni ʻo Sioatani, ʻi he ngaahi moʻunga, mo e ngaahi teleʻa, pea ʻi he ngaahi potu kotoa pē ʻoe tahi lahi ʻoku hangatonu atu ki Lepanoni, ko e kau Heti, mo e kau ʻAmoli, mo e kau Kēnani, mo e kau Pelesi, mo e kau Hevi, mo e kau Sepusi, ʻi heʻenau fanongo ai;
Kwasekusithi lapho wonke amakhosi ayenganeno kweJordani, entabeni, lesihotsheni, lekhunjini lolwandle olukhulu, maqondana leLebhanoni, amaHethi lamaAmori, amaKhanani, amaPerizi, amaHivi lamaJebusi ezwa,
2 Naʻa nau fakakātoa fakataha ʻakinautolu, kenau tauʻi loto taha pē ʻa Siosiua, mo ʻIsileli.
abuthana ndawonye ukulwa loJoshuwa loIsrayeli nganhliziyonye.
3 Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻae kakai ʻo Kipione ki he meʻa kuo fai ʻe Siosiua ki Seliko, pea mo ʻAi,
Kwathi abahlali beGibeyoni sebezwile lokho uJoshuwa ayekwenzile eJeriko laseAyi,
4 Naʻa nau fai fakakākā, ʻonau ʻalu ʻo fai ʻo hangē ko ha kau tangata talafekau ʻakinautolu, ʻo ʻai ʻae ngaahi kato motuʻa ki heʻenau fanga ʻasi, mo e ngaahi hina uaine, kuo motuʻa, mo mahae, kuo nonoʻo ʻo ʻoposi:
labo basebesenza ngobuqili; bahamba bazenza izithunywa, bathwalisa obabhemi babo amasaka agugileyo lemigodla yewayini egugileyo ledabukileyo lebekelweyo,
5 Mo e ngaahi topuvaʻe motuʻa kuo monomono ki honau vaʻe, pea ʻai mo e ngaahi kofu motuʻa kiate kinautolu: pea ko e ma kotoa pē ʻo honau ʻoho naʻe mōmoa mo tuʻungafulufulua.
lamanyathela agugileyo labekelweyo enyaweni zabo, lezigqoko ezigugileyo bezigqokile, lezinkwa zonke zomphako wabo sezomile zikhuntile.
6 Pea naʻa nau ʻalu kia Siosiua ʻi he ʻapitanga ʻi Kilikali, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, pea ki he kau tangata ʻo ʻIsileli, “Kuo mau haʻu mei he fonua mamaʻo: pea ko eni te tau alea mo kimoutolu.”
Basebesiya kuJoshuwa enkambeni eGiligali, bathi kuye lemadodeni akoIsrayeli: Sivela elizweni elikhatshana, ngakho-ke yenzani isivumelwano lathi.
7 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kau tangata ʻIsileli ki he kau Hevi, “Naʻa ko e kakai ʻoku tau nonofo ni ʻakimoutolu; pea ʻe fēfē ʻemau lea ke lelei mo kimoutolu?”
Kodwa amadoda akoIsrayeli athi kumaHivi: Mhlawumbe lihlala phakathi kwethu; pho, singenza njani isivumelwano lenu?
8 Pea naʻa nau tala kia Siosiua, “Ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakimautolu. Pea pehē ʻe Siosiua kiate kinautolu, “Ko hai ʻakimoutolu? Pea kuo mou haʻu mei fē?”
Asesithi kuJoshuwa: Sizinceku zakho. UJoshuwa wasesithi kiwo: Lingobani? Njalo livela ngaphi?
9 Pea naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “Kuo haʻu hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki mei he fonua mamaʻo, ko e meʻa ʻi he huafa ʻo Sihova ko ho ʻOtua: he kuo mau fanongo ki hono ongoongo, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne fai ʻi ʻIsipite.
Asesithi kuye: Izinceku zakho zivela elizweni elikhatshana kakhulu, ngenxa yebizo leNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, ngoba sizwile indumela yayo lakho konke eyakwenza eGibhithe,
10 Mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne fai ki he ongo tuʻi ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻakinaua naʻe ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani, kia Sihoni ko e tuʻi ʻa Hesiponi, pea kia Oki ko e tuʻi ʻo Pesani, ʻaia naʻe ʻi ʻAsitelote.
lakho konke eyakwenza emakhosini amabili amaAmori ayengaphetsheya kweJordani, uSihoni inkosi yeHeshiboni, loOgi inkosi yeBashani, eyayiseAshitarothi.
11 Ko ia naʻe lea ai ʻemau kau mātuʻa mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻo homau fonua, ʻo pehē, Toʻo ʻae meʻakai ki homou fononga, pea ʻalu ʻo fakafetaulaki kiate kinautolu, pea mou pehē kiate kinautolu, Ko hoʻomou kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakimautolu: ko ia fokotuʻu hoʻomou fekau kiate kimautolu.
Ngakho abadala bethu labo bonke abakhileyo elizweni lakithi bakhuluma kithi besithi: Thathani umphako wendlela esandleni senu, lihambe liyehlangana labo, lithi kibo: Sizinceku zenu; ngakho-ke yenzani isivumelwano lathi.
12 Ko ʻemau ma ni naʻa mau toʻo mafana pe mei homau ngaahi fale ko homau ʻoho ʻi he ʻaho naʻa mau haʻu ai he mau hoko kiate kimoutolu; ka ko eni, vakai, kuo mōmoa ia, pea kuo tuʻungafulufulua.
Lesisinkwa sethu sasithatha sitshisa singumphako wethu ezindlini zethu mhla siphumayo sisiza kini; kodwa khathesi, khangela, sesomile sakhunta.
13 Pea ko e ngaahi hina ni ʻoe uaine, ʻaia naʻa mau fakafonu, ʻoku foʻou; pea vakai, kuo nau mahae: pea ko ʻemau ngaahi kofu ni, mo e ngaahi topuvaʻe kuo hoko ʻo motuʻa ko e mae ʻi he fononga lōloa ʻaupito.”
Lalimigodla yewayini esayigcwalisayo yayimitsha; kodwa khangela, isidabukile. Lalezizigqoko zethu lamanyathela ethu sekugugiswe luhambo olude kakhulu.
14 Pea naʻa nau toʻo ʻenau meʻakai, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau fehuʻi ʻi he fofonga ʻo Sihova.
Ngakho amadoda athatha kokomphako wabo, engabuzanga umlomo weNkosi.
15 Pea naʻe fai ʻae fakalelei ʻe Siosiua mo kinautolu, ʻo alea mo kinautolu, koeʻuhi ke tuku kenau moʻui: pea naʻe fuakava kiate kinautolu ʻae houʻeiki ʻoe fakataha.
UJoshuwa wasesenza ukuthula labo, wenza isivumelwano labo sokubayekela baphile, lezinduna zenhlangano zafunga kibo.
16 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene ʻosi mai ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu, hili ʻenau fai ʻae lea mo kinautolu, naʻa nau fanongo, tā ko e vāofi pe ʻakinautolu, pea ʻoku nau nofo ofi kiate kinautolu.
Kwasekusithi ekupheleni kwensuku ezintathu emva kokuthi sebenzile isivumelwano labo, bezwa ukuthi bangomakhelwane babo, lokuthi babehlala phakathi kwabo.
17 Pea naʻe fononga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo hoko atu ki honau kolo ʻi hono tolu ʻoe ʻaho. Pea ko ʻenau ngaahi kolo, ko Kipione, mo Kifila, mo Piheloti, mo Kesa-Sialimi.
Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesuka bafika emizini yabo ngosuku lwesithathu. Njalo imizi yabo yayiyiGibeyoni leKefira leBherothi leKiriyathi-Jeyarimi.
18 Pea naʻe ʻikai teʻia ʻakinautolu ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ko e meʻa ʻi he houʻeiki ʻoe kakai naʻa nau fuakava kiate kinautolu ʻia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli. Pea naʻe lāunga ʻae kakai kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko e houʻeiki.
Njalo abantwana bakoIsrayeli kababatshayanga ngoba izinduna zebandla zazibafungele ngeNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli; inhlangano yonke yasingungunela izinduna.
19 Ka naʻe lea ʻae houʻeiki kotoa pē ki he kakai, “Kuo ʻosi ʻemau fuakava kiate kinautolu ʻia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli: ko ia ʻoku ʻikai totonu ke mau ala kiate kinautolu.
Kodwa zonke izinduna zathi enhlanganweni yonke: Thina sifungile kibo ngeNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, ngakho-ke kasilakubathinta.
20 Te tau fai ʻae meʻa ni kiate kinautolu; tuku pe kenau moʻui, telia naʻa ʻiate kitautolu ʻae houhau, ko e meʻa ʻi he fuakava ʻaia kuo tau fai kiate kinautolu.
Sizakwenza lokhu kibo, sibayekele baphile, ukuze kungabi khona ulaka phezu kwethu ngenxa yesifungo esasifunga kibo.
21 Pea naʻe tala ʻe he houʻeiki kiate kinautolu, Tuku kenau moʻui; kae hoko ʻakinautolu ko e kau tā fefie mo e kau ʻutu vai ki he kakai kotoa pē,” ʻo hangē ko e lea ʻae houʻeiki kiate kinautolu.
Lezinduna zathi kubo: Bayekeleni baphile, kodwa kababe ngabagamuli benkuni labakhi bamanzi enhlanganweni yonke, njengokutsho kwezinduna kubo.
22 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Siosiua kenau haʻu, pea naʻe lea ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “Ko e hā kuo mou kākā ai kiate kimautolu, ʻo pehē, ʻOku mau mamaʻo, ʻaupito meiate kimoutolu; kae tā ʻoku tau nonofo mo kimoutolu?
UJoshuwa wasebabiza, wakhuluma labo esithi: Lisikhohliseleni, lisithi: Sikhatshana kakhulu lani; kanti lina lihlala phakathi kwethu?
23 Pea ko eni, ʻoku malaʻia ʻakimoutolu, pea ʻe ʻikai fakatauʻatāina hamou tokotaha mei he pōpula, ka ko e kau tā fefie mo e kau ʻutu vai ʻakimoutolu ki he fale ʻo hoku ʻOtua.”
Ngakho-ke liqalekisiwe, njalo kakuyikuqunywa phakathi kwenu izigqili labagamuli benkuni labakhi bamanzi bendlu kaNkulunkulu wami.
24 Pea naʻa nau lea kia Siosiua ʻo pehē, “Ko e meʻa ʻi he fakahā ki hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki, ʻae fekau ʻe Sihova ko ho ʻOtua kia Mōsese ke foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae fonua kotoa pē, pea ke mou fakaʻauha ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua mei homou ʻao, ko ia naʻa mau manavahē lahi ai koeʻuhi ko ʻemau moʻui koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, pea ko ia kuo mau fai ai ʻae meʻa ni.
Basebephendula uJoshuwa bathi: Ngoba kwatshelwa lokutshelwa ezincekwini zakho ukuthi iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho yalaya uMozisi inceku yayo ukulinika ilizwe lonke lokuchitha bonke abakhileyo belizwe phambi kwenu. Ngakho sesaba kakhulu ngempilo yethu ngenxa yenu. Yikho senze le into.
25 Pea ko eni, vakai, ʻoku mau ʻi ho nima: ke ke fai kiate kimautolu ʻaia ʻoku matamatalelei mo totonu kiate koe.”
Khathesi-ke, khangela, sesisesandleni sakho; yenza njengokulungileyo lanjengokuqondileyo emehlweni akho ukukwenza kithi.
26 Pea naʻa ne fai ia kiate kinautolu, ʻo fakahaofi ʻakinautolu mei he nima ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu.
Ngakho wenza njalo kubo, wabophula esandleni sabantwana bakoIsrayeli, ukuze bangababulali.
27 Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻakinautolu ʻe Siosiua ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ko e kau tā fefie, mo e kau ʻutu vai ki he kakai ʻoe fakataha, pea ki he feilaulauʻanga ʻo Sihova, ʻio, ʻo aʻu mai ki he ʻaho ni, ʻi he potu ko ia te ne fili.
UJoshuwa wasebenza ngalolosuku baba ngabagamuli benkuni labakhi bamanzi benhlangano, labelathi leNkosi, kuze kube lamuhla, endaweni ezayikhetha.
