Yosua 11
1 Ɛberɛ a Hasorhene Yabin tee asɛm a asi no, ɔtoo ahemfo a wɔdidi so yi nkra dendeenden: Madonhene Yobab, Simronhene ne Aksafhene;
Kwathi uJabhini inkosi yeHazori isizwa lokhu yathumela ilizwi kuJobhabhi inkosi yeMadoni lasemakhosini eShimroni le-Akhishafi,
2 ahemfo a wɔwɔ atifi fam mmepɔ so, ahemfo a wɔwɔ Yordan Bɔnhwa a ɛda Galilea anafoɔ fam; ahemfo a wɔwɔ atɔeɛ fam nkokoɔ so; ahemfo a wɔwɔ Nafɔt Dor atɔeɛ fam;
lasemakhosini enyakatho ayesezintabeni ze-Arabha eningizimu yeKhinerethi emawatheni amaqaqa entshonalanga kanye laseNafothi Dori entshonalanga;
3 Kanaan ahemfo a wɔwɔ apueeɛ ne atɔeɛ; Amorifoɔ ahemfo ne Hetifoɔ ahemfo ne Perisifoɔ ahemfo ne ahemfo a wɔwɔ Yebusifoɔ mmepɔ asase so; ne Hewifoɔ a wɔwɔ nkuro a ɛwɔ Hermon bepɔ ase wɔ Mispa asase so.
lakumaKhenani empumalanga lentshonalanga; lakuma-Amori, amaHithi, amaPherizi lamaJebusi elizweni elilamaqaqa; kanye lakumaHivi ngaphansi kweHemoni esabelweni seMizipha.
4 Saa ahemfo yi nyinaa gyee pene, boaboaa wɔn akodɔm ano sɛ wɔbɛka abɔ mu ako atia Israel. Wɔn akodɔm no nyinaa, apɔnkɔ dodoɔ ne nteaseɛnam yɛɛ asase no so ma te sɛ mpoano anwea.
Baphuma lamabutho abo wonke lenani elikhulu lamabhiza lezinqola, ibutho elikhulu, ubunengi lingangetshebetshebe okhunjini lolwandle.
5 Wɔbɔɔ wɔn atenaeɛ wɔ asuo a ɛbɛn Merom ho sɛ wɔrebɛko atia Israel.
Wonke amakhosi la abambana asesakha izihonqo ndawonye eManzini aseMeromi, ukulwa labako-Israyeli.
6 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Nsuro wɔn. Ɔkyena sɛsɛɛ berɛ mu na wɔn nyinaa atotɔ. Bubu wɔn apɔnkɔ no nan na hye wɔn nteaseɛnam no.”
UThixo wathi kuJoshuwa, “Ungabesabi, ngoba ngalesisikhathi kusasa ngizabanikela bonke kwabako-Israyeli sebefile. Uzaquma imisipha yamabhiza abo njalo utshise izihonqo zabo.”
7 Na Yosua ne nʼakodɔm kɔɔ Merom asuo no ho kɔto hyɛɛ wɔn so mpofirim.
Ngakho uJoshuwa lebutho lakhe lonke bahlangana labo mathupha eManzini eMeromi wasebahlasela,
8 Na Awurade ma wɔdii wɔn atamfoɔ no so nkonim. Israelfoɔ no taa wɔn ara kɔsii Sidon Kɛseɛ ne Misrefot-Maim ho ne Mispa Bɔnhwa no mu wɔ apueeɛ fam, kɔsii sɛ atamfoɔ no akofoɔ baako mpo anka.
uThixo wabanikela esandleni sika-Israyeli. Babanqoba, baxotshana labo baze babafikisa eSidoni Enkulu kusiya eMisirefothi-Mayimi, leSigodini seMizipha empumalanga kwaze kwasala kungelamuntu ophilayo.
9 Ɛnna Yosua bubuu apɔnkɔ no nan, sane hyee nteaseɛnam no sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn no.
UJoshuwa wenza kibo lokho ayekulaywe nguThixo: Waquma imisipha yamabhiza abo njalo watshisa izinqola zabo.
10 Yosua sane nʼakyi bɛgyee Hasor kuro no faeɛ, kumm ɛhɔ ɔhene. (Na anka Hasor yɛ saa ahemman nkabom no nyinaa kuropɔn.)
Ngalesosikhathi uJoshuwa waphenduka wabuyela emuva wathumba iHazori wasehlasela inkosi yakuleyo ndawo ngenkemba. (IHazori yayiyisigodlo sayo yonke imibuso leyo.)
11 Israelfoɔ no sɛee biribiara a nkwa wɔ mu wɔ kuropɔn no so. Wɔannya ɔkra fua mpo. Na Yosua too Hasor kuropɔn no mu ogya.
Wonke umuntu owayephakathi kwayo wabhujiswa ngenkemba. Bababhubhisa baphela, abaze batshiya lutho oluphefumulayo, watshisa iHazori ngokwayo.
12 Yosua kunkumm ahemfo a aka no nyinaa ne wɔn manfoɔ sɛee wɔn pasaa sɛdeɛ Mose, Awurade ɔsomfoɔ, hyɛɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
UJoshuwa wathumba wonke amadolobho esikhosini lamakhosi awo wawahlasela ngenkemba. Wawabhubhisa wonke, njengokulaya kukaMosi inceku kaThixo.
13 Mmom, Yosua anhye kuropɔn biara a ɛsi esie so gye Hasor.
Kukanti-ke u-Israyeli kazange atshise loba yiwaphi amadolobho ayakhelwe emadundulwini ngaphandle kweHazori, eyatshiswa nguJoshuwa.
14 Na Israelfoɔ no faa asadeɛ ne anantwie a wɔwɔ nkuro mmubuiɛ no mu nanso wɔkumm emu nnipa no nyinaa.
Abako-Israyeli bathatha zaba ngezabo zonke impahla ababezithumbile okwakugoqela izifuyo zamadolobho la bahamba lakho kodwa bonke abantu bababhubhisa ngenkemba baphela du, bengatshiyi lutho oluphefumulayo.
15 Sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ ne ɔsomfoɔ Mose no, saa ara na Mose nso hyɛɛ Yosua. Na Yosua nso yɛɛ sɛdeɛ wɔka kyerɛɛ no no, dii deɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no nyinaa so.
Njengoba uThixo walaya inceku yakhe uMosi, uMosi laye walaya uJoshuwa, uJoshuwa wakwenza lokho: katshiyanga lutho lungenziwanga ezintweni zonke uThixo owazilaya uMosi.
16 Enti, Yosua ko gyee ɔmantam no nyinaa a ɛyɛ mmepɔ ɔman, Negeb, Gosen asase, atɔeɛ fam nkokoɔ, Yordan Bɔnhwa, Israel mmepɔ ne nsase tata faeɛ.
Ngakho uJoshuwa wathatha ilizwe lonke: ilizwe lamaqaqa, yonke iNegebi, isabelo sonke seGosheni, amawatha asentshonalanga, i-Arabha, lezintaba zako-Israyeli lamawatha azo,
17 Enti afei, Israel nsase bɛyɛɛ deɛ ɛfiri Halak bepɔ a ɛkɔsi Seir wɔ atifi fam toaso kɔ Baal-Gad a ɛwɔ Bepɔ Hermon ase wɔ Lebanon bɔnhwa mu. Yosua kunkumm nsase no so ahemfo nyinaa,
kusukela entabeni yeHalakhi, ephakama ngokuya eSeyiri, kusiya eBhali-Gadi esiGodini seLebhanoni ngaphansi kwentaba iHemoni. Wathumba wonke amakhosi awo, wawehlula, wawabulala.
18 wɔ mmerɛ tenten akokoakoko mu.
UJoshuwa walwa impi lawo wonke amakhosi okwesikhathi eside.
19 Kuro biara nni ɔmantam yi mu a ɔne Israelfoɔ yɛɛ asomdwoeɛ apam gye sɛ Hewifoɔ a wɔte Gibeon no. Wɔdii wɔn a aka no nyinaa so nkonim.
Ngaphandle kwamaHivi ayehlala eGibhiyoni, kalikho idolobho loba elilodwa elenza isivumelwano sokuthula labako-Israyeli, kwabawathumba empini.
20 Awurade pirim wɔn akoma ma wɔko tiaa Israelfoɔ wɔ ɛberɛ a anka ɛsɛ sɛ wɔ ne wɔn yɛ asomdwoeɛ nhyehyɛeɛ. Enti wɔsɛee wɔn pasaa a ahummɔborɔ biara nni mu sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no.
Ngoba kwakunguThixo owenza inhliziyo zawo zaba lukhuni zafuna ukulwa impi lo-Israyeli, ukwenzela ukuthi enelise ukubachitha baphele, ebabhubhisa okungelazwelo, njengokulaywa kukaMosi nguThixo.
21 Saa ɛberɛ no mu, Yosua tɔree Anak asefoɔ a na wɔte bepɔ nkuro Hebron, Debir, Anab ne bepɔman Yuda ne Israel nyinaa ase. Ɔkumm wɔn nyinaa na ɔsɛee wɔn nkuro no pasaa.
Ngalesosikhathi uJoshuwa waphuma wawabhubhisa ama-Anakhi elizweni lamaqaqa: kusukela eHebhroni, eDebhiri le-Anabhi, kusukela elizweni lonke lamaqaqa akoJuda. UJoshuwa wabhubhisa wababhuqa bona kanye lamadolobho abo.
22 Wɔn mu fua koraa anka wɔ Israel asase so, mmom, wɔn mu bi kaa Gasa, Gat ne Asdod.
Akula ma-Anakhi asala esabelweni sabako-Israyeli; ngaphandle kweGaza iGathi le-Ashidodi lapho okwasila abanye bakhona.
23 Enti, Yosua faa asase no nyinaa sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Mose no. Ɔde maa Israelfoɔ sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ sononko kyekyɛɛ mu maa mmusuakuo no. Enti awieeɛ no asase no so dwoeɛ.
Ngakho uJoshuwa wathumba ilizwe lonke njengoba uThixo walaya uMosi, waselinika abako-Israyeli njengelifa kusiya ngokwahlukaniswa kwezizwana zabo. Ngakho-ke ilizwe laphumula ekulweni izimpi.
