< 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;
Kwasekusithi lapho uJabini inkosi yeHazori ekuzwa, wathumela kuJobabi inkosi yeMadoni, lenkosini yeShimironi, lenkosini yeAkishafi,
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;
lemakhosini ayengenyakatho ezintabeni, lemagcekeni, eningizimu kweKinerothi, lesihotsheni, lemaqaqeni eDori 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.
amaKhanani empumalanga lentshonalanga, lamaAmori lamaHethi lamaPerizi lamaJebusi entabeni, lamaHivi ngaphansi kweHermoni elizweni leMizipa.
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.
Asephuma, wona lawo wonke amabutho awo kanye lawo, abantu abanengi, njengetshebetshebe elisekhunjini lolwandle ngobunengi, lamabhiza lenqola okunengi kakhulu.
5 Wɔbɔɔ wɔn atenaeɛ wɔ asuo a ɛbɛn Merom ho sɛ wɔrebɛko atia Israel.
Wonke lamakhosi asehlangana, eza amisa inkamba ndawonye emanzini eMeroma, ukulwa emelene loIsrayeli.
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.”
INkosi yasisithi kuJoshuwa: Ungesabi ngenxa yabo, ngoba kusasa phose ngalesisikhathi ngizawanikela wonke esebulewe phambi kukaIsrayeli; uzaquma imisipha yamabhiza awo, utshise inqola zawo ngomlilo.
7 Na Yosua ne nʼakodɔm kɔɔ Merom asuo no ho kɔto hyɛɛ wɔn so mpofirim.
UJoshuwa wasesiza, labo bonke abantu bempi kanye laye, bemelene lawo emanzini eMeroma bawajuma, bawadumela.
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.
INkosi yasiwanikela esandleni sikaIsrayeli, owawatshaya waxotshana lawo kwaze kwaba seSidoni enkulu, kwaze kwaba seMisirefothi-Mayimi, kwaze kwaba sesihotsheni seMizipa empumalanga. Bawatshaya, kabaze batshiya insali kubo.
9 Ɛnna Yosua bubuu apɔnkɔ no nan, sane hyee nteaseɛnam no sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ wɔn no.
UJoshuwa wasesenza kiwo njengokutsho kweNkosi kuye; waquma imisipha yamabhiza awo, watshisa inqola zawo ngomlilo.
10 Yosua sane nʼakyi bɛgyee Hasor kuro no faeɛ, kumm ɛhɔ ɔhene. (Na anka Hasor yɛ saa ahemman nkabom no nyinaa kuropɔn.)
UJoshuwa wasebuya ngalesosikhathi, wathumba iHazori, watshaya inkosi yayo ngenkemba. Ngoba kuqala iHazori yayiyinhloko yayo yonke leyomibuso.
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.
Batshaya yonke imiphefumulo eyayikiyo ngobukhali benkemba, bayitshabalalisa; kakusalanga lokukodwa okuphefumulayo; wasetshisa iHazori ngomlilo.
12 Yosua kunkumm ahemfo a aka no nyinaa ne wɔn manfoɔ sɛee wɔn pasaa sɛdeɛ Mose, Awurade ɔsomfoɔ, hyɛɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
Yonke-ke imizi yalawomakhosi lamakhosi ayo wonke uJoshuwa wakuthumba, wakutshaya ngobukhali benkemba, wakutshabalalisa, njengokulaya kukaMozisi inceku yeNkosi.
13 Mmom, Yosua anhye kuropɔn biara a ɛsi esie so gye Hasor.
Kuphela imizi yonke eyayimi emadundulwini ayo uIsrayeli kayitshisanga, ngaphandle kweHazori kuphela uJoshuwa ayitshisayo.
14 Na Israelfoɔ no faa asadeɛ ne anantwie a wɔwɔ nkuro mmubuiɛ no mu nanso wɔkumm emu nnipa no nyinaa.
Layo yonke impango yalimizi lezifuyo abantwana bakoIsrayeli baziphangela. Kuphela bonke abantu babatshaya ngobukhali benkemba baze babachitha; kabatshiyanga loyedwa ophefumulayo.
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.
Njengalokhu iNkosi yayimlayile uMozisi inceku yayo, ngokunjalo uMozisi wamlaya uJoshuwa, langokunjalo uJoshuwa wakwenza; kasusanga lutho kukho konke iNkosi eyakulaya uMozisi.
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 walithatha lelolizwe lonke, izintaba, leningizimu yonke, lelizwe lonke leGosheni, lesihotsha, lamagceke, lentaba zakoIsrayeli, lesigodi sakhe,
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 yeHalaki eyenyukela eSeyiri, kuze kube seBhali-Gadi esihotsheni seLebhanoni ngaphansi kwentaba yeHermoni. Wawathumba wonke amakhosi abo, wawatshaya wawabulala.
18 wɔ mmerɛ tenten akokoakoko mu.
UJoshuwa wayilwa-ke impi insuku ezinengi lawo wonke lawomakhosi.
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.
Kakubanga lamuzi owenza ukuthula labantwana bakoIsrayeli ngaphandle kwamaHivi abahlali beGibeyoni; bayithatha yonke ngempi.
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 kwakuvela eNkosini ukwenza lukhuni inhliziyo zabo ukuze bahlangabezane loIsrayeli empini, ukuze abatshabalalise, ukuze bangazuzi umusa, kodwa ukuze ababhubhise, njengokulaya kweNkosi kuMozisi.
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.
UJoshuwa wasesiza ngalesosikhathi, waquma amaAnaki asuke ezintabeni, eHebroni, eDebiri, eAnabi, lentabeni zonke zakoJuda, lakuzo zonke intaba zakoIsrayeli; uJoshuwa wawatshabalalisa lemizi yawo.
22 Wɔn mu fua koraa anka wɔ Israel asase so, mmom, wɔn mu bi kaa Gasa, Gat ne Asdod.
Kakusalanga amaAnaki elizweni labantwana bakoIsrayeli; kuphela eGaza, eGathi, leAshidodi, asala.
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.
UJoshuwa wasethatha ilizwe lonke njengakho konke iNkosi eyakukhuluma kuMozisi. UJoshuwa waselinika laba yilifa kuIsrayeli, njengokwehlukaniswa kwabo ngezizwe zabo. Ilizwe laseliphumula empini.
