Yosua 13
1 Bere a Yosua bɔɔ akwakoraa no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Worebɔ akwakoraa nso nsase pii wɔ hɔ a ɛsɛ sɛ woko di so.
UJoshuwa esemdala njalo eseluphele kakhulu, uThixo wathi kuye, “Usuluphele kakhulu, njalo lokhu usasalelwe yilizwe elikhulu kakhulu okumele ulithumbe.
2 “Ɛsɛ sɛ nnipa no tena Filistifo ne Gesur,
Nanti ilizwe elisaseleyo: zonke izabelo zamaFilistiya lamaGeshuri:
3 “nsase a na ɛyɛ Kanaanfo de no so. Saa asase yi fi asu Sihor a ɛda Misraim hye so a ɛsen fa atifi fam kosi Ekron hye so,
kusukela emfuleni uShihori empumalanga yeGibhithe kusiya esabelweni se-Ekroni enyakatho, lonke libaliswa njengelamaKhenani lanxa libanjwe ngababusi beFilistiya abahlanu eGaza, e-Ashidodi, e-Ashikheloni, eGathi le-Ekroni ilizwe lama-Avi;
4 a Filistifo nkurɔpɔn anum a ɛyɛ Gasa, Asdod, Askelon, Gat ne Ekron nso ka ho. Awifo asase a ɛda anafo fam no nso, wɔnnko nnii so ɛ. Atifi fam nso, wɔnnko nnii saa nsase yi so ɛ; Kanaan asase nyinaa a Meara a ɛyɛ Sidonfo de no, de kosi Afek, kodu Amorifo hye so
kusukela eningizimu, lonke ilizwe lamaKhenani, kusukela eMeyara yamaSidoni kusiyafika e-Afekhi, isabelo sama-Amori,
5 ne Gebalfo asase ne Lebanon nyinaa wɔ apuei fam, de fi Baal-Gad a ɛda Hermon bepɔw ase, de kosi Hamat fam.
indawo yamaGebhali; layo yonke iLebhanoni ngempumalanga, kusukela eBhali-Gadi ngaphansi kweNtaba yeHemoni kusiya eLebho Hamathi.
6 “Mmepɔw asase a efi Lebanon kosi Misrefot-Maim nyinaa a Sidonfo nsase nyinaa ka ho. Metu saa nnipa no nyinaa afi asase no so na mede ama Israelfo. Enti hwɛ na fa saa asase no ma Israelfo sɛ agyapade sononko sɛnea mahyɛ wo no.
Bonke abakhele ezabelweni ezisezintabeni kusukela eLebhanoni kusiya eMisirefothi-Mayimi, okutsho wonke amaSidoni, mina ngokwami ngizabaxotsha phambi kwabako-Israyeli. Wobani leqiniso lokuthi lelilizwe labelwe abako-Israyeli ukuze libe yilifa labo njengokulilaya kwami,
7 Fa saa asase yi nyinaa sɛ Israelfo agyapade bere a worekyekyɛ mu ama mmusuakuw akron no ne Manase abusua fa no.”
njalo lilabe njengelifa phakathi kwezizwana eziyisificamunwemunye lengxenye yesizwana sakoManase.”
8 Manase abusua fa, Rubenfo ne Gadfo de, na wɔanya wɔn agyapade wɔ Yordan apuei fam, efisɛ na Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade somfo no de saa asase no ama wɔn dedaw.
Eyinye ingxenye yakoManase, eyakoRubheni leyakoGadi yayizuze ilifa eyalinikwa nguMosi empumalanga yeJodani njengalokho inceku kaThixo eyayibaphe lona.
9 Wɔn asase no fi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subon no ano (ne kurow a ɛda nsuka no mfimfini) de kɔ sare a ɛtoa Medeba so kosi Dibon.
Lasuka e-Aroweri emaphethelweni oDonga lwe-Arinoni lasedolobheni eliphakathi kodonga, njalo ligoqela amagceke eMedebha kusiyafika eDibhoni,
10 Amorihene Sihon a odii ade wɔ Hesbon kosi Amonfo hye so nkurow nyinaa nso ka ho.
lamadolobho wonke kaSihoni inkosi yama-Amori, owabusa eHeshibhoni, kusiyafika emngceleni wama-Amoni.
11 Gilead, asase a ɛwɔ Gesur ne Maaka ahemman mu, Bepɔw Hermon nyinaa, Basan nyinaa de kosi Saleka ka ho,
Laligoqela iGiliyadi, isabelo sabantu baseGeshuri leMahakhathi, leNtaba yonke yeHemoni leBhashani yonke kusiyafika eSalekha,
12 na Basanhene Og a odii hene wɔ Astarot ne Edrei nsase nyinaa nso ka ho. Ɔhene Og yɛ Rafatni a otwa to, efisɛ na Mose ne wɔn ako apam wɔn.
okutsho ukuthi, umbuso wonke ka-Ogi eBhashani, yena owabusa e-Ashitharothi le-Edreyi njalo wayengomunye wamaRefayi ayelokhu esaphila. UMosi wayebanqobile wathatha ilizwe labo.
13 Nanso Israelfo no antu Gesurfo ne Maakafo enti wɔtenaa Israelfo no mu de besi nnɛ.
Kodwa abako-Israyeli kabazange babaxotshe abantu beGeshuri leMahakhathi, yikho lokhu behlala phakathi kwabako-Israyeli kuze kube lamhlanje.
14 Na Lewi abusuakuw no de, wamma wɔn agyapade biara. Wɔn agyapade fi afɔrebɔde a wɔhyew wɔ afɔremuka so ma Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn no.
Kodwa abesizwana sabaLevi kazange abanike ilifa, njengoba iminikelo eyayisenziwa ngomlilo kuThixo, uNkulunkulu wako-Israyeli iyilifa labo njengokubathembisa kwakhe.
15 Mose de saa beae yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Ruben abusuakuw mu.
Lokhu yikho uMosi akunika isizwana sakoRubheni, usendo lunye ngalunye:
16 Wɔn asase no fi Aroer a ɛda Arnon Subon no ano (ne kurow a ɛda nsuka no mfimfini) de kɔ sare a ɛtoa Medeba so.
Isigaba esisuka e-Aroweri emaphethelweni oDonga lwe-Arinoni, lokusuka edolobheni eliphakathi koDonga lawo wonke amagceke adabula eMedebha
17 Nkurow ne nkuraase a ɛkeka ho ni: Hesbon ne nkurow a ɛdeda sare so te sɛ Dibon, Bamot-Baal ne Bet-Baal-Meon,
kusiya eHeshibhoni lawo wonke amadolobho asemagcekeni agoqela iDibhoni, iBhamothi-Bhali, iBhethi-Bhali-Meyoni,
18 Yahas, Kedemot, Mefaat,
iJahazi, iKhedemothi, iMefahathi,
19 Kiriataim, Sibma ne Seret-Sahar, a ɛdeda obon no koko so,
iKhiriyathayimi, iSibhima, iZerethi-Shahari eqaqeni olusesigodini,
20 Bet-Peor, Pisga nsian mu ne Bet-Yesimot.
iBhethi-Pheyori, lemithezuko yasePhisiga, leBhethi-Jeshimothi,
21 Nkurow a ɛwɔ tataw so nyinaa ne Sihon ahemman nyinaa nso ka Ruben asase no ho. Sihon yɛ Amorihene a na odi ade wɔ Hesbon, nea Mose kum no ne Midian ahemfo a wɔne Ewi, Rekem, Sur, Hur, Reba ne ahenemma a wɔwɔ mpɔtam hɔ a wɔne Sihon yɛ baako.
wonke amadolobho asemagcekeni lombuso wonke kaSihoni inkosi yama-Amori, owayebusa eHeshibhoni. UMosi wayemehlule yena lezinduna zamaMidiyani, u-Evi, uRekhemu, uZuri, uHuri, loRebha, wonke engamakhosana amanyane loSihoni owayehlala kulelolizwe.
22 Israelfo no kum Beor babarima nkonyaayifo bi a na wɔfrɛ no Balaam.
Phezu kwalabo ababulawa empini abako-Israyeli babebulele ngenkemba uBhalamu indodana kaBheyori, owayeyisanuse.
23 Yordan Asubɔnten no yɛ Ruben asase no hye wɔ atɔe fam. Wɔde nkurow ne nkuraa a ɛwɔ saa beae yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Ruben abusuakuw no mu sɛ wɔn agyapade.
Umngcele wamaRubheni wawusokhunjini lweJodani. Amadolobho la lemizana yawo ayeyilifa labakoRubheni, usendo lunye ngalunye:
24 Mose de saa asase yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Gad abusuakuw mu.
Lokhu yikho uMosi akupha isizwana sakoGadi usendo lunye ngalunye:
25 Wɔn asase no yɛ Yaser, Gilead nkurow nyinaa, ne Amon asase no fa, kosi Aroer kurow a ɛwɔ Raba atɔe fam pɛɛ.
Isabelo seJazeri, amadolobho wonke eGiliyadi lengxenye yelizwe lama-Amoni kusiyafika e-Aroweri, eduzane leRabha;
26 Na efi Hesbon de kosi Ramat-Mispa ne Betonim de fi Mahanaim de kosi Debir.
lokusuka eHeshibhoni kusiya eRamathi Mizipha leBhethonimi, lokusuka eMahanayimi kusiya esigabeni seDebhiri;
27 Obon no mu na na Bet-Haram ne Bet-Nimra ne Sukot ne Safon ne Hesbonhene Sihon ahemman no nkae wɔ; Asubɔnten Yordan na na ɛyɛ atɔe fam hɔ hye na ɛtoa so de kosi Galilea po no mu.
esigodini iBhethi-Haramu, iBhethi-Nimra, iSukhothi leZafoni lawo wonke umbuso kaSihoni inkosi yeHeshibhoni (icele elisempumalanga yeJodani, isabelo esisekucineni kolwandle lweKhinerethi).
28 Nkurow ne nkuraa a ɛwɔ saa beae yi na wɔde maa mmusua a ɛwɔ Gad abusuakuw mu sɛ wɔn agyapade.
Amadolobho la ndawonye lemizana yawo ayeyilifa labakoGadi; usendo lunye ngalunye.
29 Mose de saa beae yi maa mmusua a ɛwɔ
Lokhu yikho uMosi ayekunike ingxenye yesizwana sakoManase, okutsho ingxenye yemuli eyayiyinzalo kaManase, usendo lunye ngalunye:
30 Na wɔn asase no fi Mahanaim, Basan nyinaa, ɔhene Og kan tete ahemman nyinaa ne nkurow aduosia a ɛwɔ Yair a ɛwɔ Basan no.
Umango owawusuka eMahanayimi ugoqela iBhashani, wonke umbuso ka-Ogi inkosi yaseBhashani, yonke imizana yeJayiri eBhashani, amadolobho angamatshumi ayisithupha,
31 Gilead fa ne ɔhene Og ahenkurow, Astarot ne Edrei ka ho. Wɔde eyinom nyinaa maa Makir a na ɔyɛ Manase babarima no asefo.
ingxenye yeGiliyadi, le-Ashitharothi le-Edreyi (amadolobho obukhosi ka-Ogi eBhashani). Lokhu kwakungokwezizukulwane zikaMakhiri indodana kaManase, kungokwengxenye yamadodana kaMakhiri usendo lunye ngalunye.
32 Eyinom yɛ nkyekyɛmu a Mose yɛe bere a na ɔwɔ Moab tataw so, wɔ Asubɔnten Yordan akyi, Yeriko apuei fam.
Leli yilo ilifa uMosi ayelabile lapho esasemagcekeni eMowabi ngaphetsheya kweJodani empumalanga yeJerikho.
33 Nanso Mose amma Lewi abusuakuw no asase biara, efisɛ na Awurade, Israel Nyankopɔn ahyɛ bɔ sɛ ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ wɔn agyapade.
Kodwa esizwaneni sabaLevi, uMosi kazange asabele ilifa; uThixo, uNkulunkulu wako-Israyeli, nguye ilifa labo njengokubathembisa kwakhe.
