1 Ɛberɛ a Amorifoɔ ahemfo nyinaa a wɔwɔ Yordan atɔeɛ fam ne Kanaanfoɔ ahemfo a wɔwɔ Ɛpo Kɛseɛ no mpoano tee sɛ Awurade ama Asubɔnten Yordan awe wɔ Israelfoɔ anim ama wɔatwa no, wɔn akoma tuiɛ na ehu kyekyeree wɔn.
Kane ruodhi duto ma jo-Amor modak yo podho chiengʼ mar aora Jordan to gi ruodhi duto mag jo-Kanaan modak e dho nam nowinjo kaka Jehova Nyasaye notwoyo aora Jordan e nyim jo-Israel nyaka negingʼado, chunygi nobwok kendo ne gionge gi chir mar chomo jo-Israel tir.
2 Saa ɛberɛ no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Yɛ twerɛboɔ sekammoa na fa twa Israelfoɔ no twetia bio.”
E sechego Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Joshua niya, “Piag pelni mabith mondo ichak terogo jo-Israel nyangu.”
3 Enti, Yosua yɛɛ twerɛboɔ sekammoa no de twitwaa Israelfoɔ nyinaa twetia wɔ Aaralot kokoɔ so.
Omiyo Joshua nopiago pelni mabith mi otero jo-Israel nyangu kama iluongo ni Gibeath Haraloth.
4 Na ɛsɛ sɛ Yosua twitwa wɔn twetia, ɛfiri sɛ, mmarima a na wɔanyinyini a wɔtumi ko wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔfirii Misraim no nyinaa awuwu wɔ ɛserɛ no so.
Gima omiyo notimo kamano en nikech ji duto mane oa Misri; ma gin jogo mahikgi noromo kedo e lweny, notho e thim ka gisewuok gia Misri.
5 Nnipa a wɔtu firii Misraim baeɛ no, na wɔatwitwa wɔn nyinaa twetia. Nanso wɔn a wɔwowoo wɔn wɔ ɛserɛ no so wɔ Otukorɔ berɛ no mu no deɛ, na wɔntwitwaa wɔn twetia.
Jogo duto mane oa Misri noseter nyangu, makmana joma nonywol e thim ka gisea Misri ema ne pod ok oter nyangu.
6 Israelfoɔ no kyinkyinii wɔ ɛserɛ no so mfeɛ aduanan kɔsii sɛ mmarima a wɔtumi ko wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔrefiri Misraim no nyinaa wuwuiɛ. Ɛfiri sɛ, wɔyɛɛ asoɔden maa Awurade, na ɔkaa ntam sɛ ɔremma wɔn nan rensi asase a waka ntam sɛ ɔde bɛma yɛn no so, asase a nufosuo ne ɛwoɔ resene wɔ so no.
Jo-Israel nosewuotho e thim kuom thuolo maromo higni piero angʼwen manyaka ji duto mahikgi oromo kedo e lweny mane giwuokgo Misri nosetho nikech ne ok giseluoro Jehova Nyasaye. Jehova Nyasaye nosekwongʼorenegi ni ok gininee piny mane osingo ne kweregi mondo omigi, piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich.
7 Enti Yosua twitwaa wɔn mmammarima a wɔntwaa wɔn twetia no twetia wɔ ɛberɛ a na wɔrekɔ Bɔhyɛ Asase no so no. Yeinom yɛ wɔn a na wɔanyinyini a wɔtumi si wɔn agyanom anan mu no.
Omiyo yawuotgi mane onywol bangʼe ka gin e thim ema ne Joshua otero nyangu. Ne pod ok otergi nyangu nikech ne oyudo kapod giwuotho e thim.
8 Ɔtwaa mmarima no nyinaa twetia wieeɛ no, wɔgyee wɔn ahome wɔ atenaeɛ hɔ kɔsii sɛ wɔn ho tɔɔ wɔn.
Bangʼ kane ogandani duto oseter nyangu, ne gidongʼ e kambi nyaka ne gichango.
9 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Ɛnnɛ mayi mo nkoayɛ wɔ Misraim ho animguaseɛ no afiri mo so.” Ɛno enti, wɔfrɛ beaeɛ hɔ Gilgal de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
Bangʼ mano, Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Joshua niya, “Kawuono asetieko ajara mar jo-Misri kuomu.” Omiyo kanyo iluongo ni Gilgal nyaka chil kawuono.
10 Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ no wɔ Gilgal atenaeɛ hɔ wɔ Yeriko asase parada no so no, wɔdii Twam Afahyɛ no wɔ bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda a ɛtɔ so dunan no anwummerɛ. Saa bosome no na wɔde kae ɛberɛ a wɔtu firii Misraim no.
Godhiambo mar odiechiengʼ mar apar angʼwen mar dweno, jo-Israel nochokore Gilgal e pewe mag Jeriko kendo negitimo nyasi mar Pasaka.
11 Ɛda no ara, wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ dii apiti ne aburoo a wɔtwa firii asase no so a wɔakye.

Bangʼ odiechiengʼ achiel kane gisechamo chiemo moa e pinyno, chiemb manna ne ok ochako biro ni jo-Israel nikech e higano negichamo mana nyak mar Kanaan.
13 Ɛberɛ a Yosua rebɛn Yeriko kuropɔn no, ɔpagyaa nʼani hunuu ɔbarima bi a ɔkura akofena rehyia no. Yosua kɔɔ ne nkyɛn bisaa no sɛ, “Wowɔ yɛn afa anaa woyɛ ɔtamfoɔ?”
Ka koro Joshua ne chiegni chopo Jeriko, nongʼiyo nyime mi oneno ngʼato mochungʼ kotingʼo ligangla e lwete. Joshua nosudo machiegni kode mopenje niya, “In jakorwa koso jasikwa?”
14 Na ɔbarima no buaa sɛ, “Menyɛ wɔn mu biara, meyɛ Awurade asraadɔm so safohene.” Yosua tee yei no, ɔdaa hɔ de nʼanim butuu fam wɔ anidie mu na ɔkaa sɛ, “Kyerɛ me deɛ menyɛ, ɛdeɛn na wopɛ sɛ wo ɔsomfoɔ yɛ?”
Ngʼatno nodwoke niya, “Ok an maru kata mar wasiku, to asebiro kaka jatend lweny mar Jehova Nyasaye.” Omiyo Joshua nopodho auma e nyime gi luor, mi openje niya, “En wach mane ma ruodha nigodo ni jatichne?”
15 Awurade asraadɔm safohene no buaa sɛ, “Yi wo mpaboa na ɛha yɛ asase kronkron.” Na Yosua yɛɛ deɛ ɔkyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no.
Jatend lweny mar Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “Gol wuoche manie tiendi, nikech kama ichungoeni en Kama Ler.” Omiyo Joshua notimo kamano.
