Yosua 6
1 Wɔtotoo Yeriko apono mu pampee, ɛfiri sɛ na wɔsuro Israelfoɔ no. Wɔamma obiara ɛkwan ma wankɔ mu anaa wamfiri adi.
Tsono mzinda wa Yeriko unali utatsekedwa kuti Aisraeli asalowe. Palibe amene amatuluka kapena kulowa.
2 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Mede Yeriko, ɛhɔ ɔhene ne ɛhɔ akofoɔ nyinaa ahyɛ wo nsa.
Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Yoswa, “Taona ndapereka Yeriko, pamodzi ndi mfumu yake ndi ankhondo ake mʼmanja mwako.
3 Ma wʼasraadɔm no nyinaa mmɔ nsra ntwa kuropɔn no ho nhyia pɛnkorɔ ɛda biara nna nsia.
Tsono iwe pamodzi ndi ankhondo ako onse muzizungulira mzindawu masiku asanu ndi limodzi, kamodzi pa tsiku.
4 Asɔfoɔ baason a obiara kura nnwennini abɛn bɛdi Adaka no anim. Ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no, ɛsɛ sɛ mobɔ nsra twa kuropɔn no ho mprɛnson, a asɔfoɔ no rehyɛn nnwennini mmɛn no.
Ansembe asanu ndi awiri, atanyamula malipenga a nyanga za nkhosa zazimuna, akhale patsogolo pa Bokosi la Chipangano. Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri mudzazungulire mzindawu kasanu ndi kawiri ansembe akuliza malipenga.
5 Sɛ mote sɛ asɔfoɔ no hyɛn mmɛn no dendeenden ma ɛkyɛre a, nnipa no nyinaa mmɔ nnye so. Afei kuropɔn no afasuo nyinaa bɛdwiri agu fam, na nnipa no bɛtumi ato ahyɛ kuropɔn no so.”
Ansembe adzalize malipenga kosalekeza. Tsono anthu onse akadzamva kuliza kumeneku adzafuwule kwambiri, ndipo makoma a mzindawo adzagwa. Zikadzatero ankhondo adzalowe mu mzindawo.”
6 Na Yosua frɛɛ asɔfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Momfa Awurade Apam Adaka no na mo mu baason nni animu a obiara kura nnwennini abɛn.”
Ndipo Yoswa mwana wa Nuni anayitana ansembe ndipo anawawuza kuti, “Nyamulani Bokosi la Chipangano cha Yehova ndipo ansembe asanu ndi awiri anyamule malipenga. Iwowa akhale patsogolo pake.”
7 Enti, ɔhyɛɛ nnipa no sɛ, “Mommɔ nsra mfa kuropɔn no ho na wɔn a wɔkurakura akodeɛ no bɛdi Awurade adaka no anim.”
Ndipo analamulira anthu kuti, “Yambani kuyenda! Yendani mozungulira mzinda ndipo ankhondo akhale patsogolo pa Bokosi la Yehova.”
8 Yosua kasa kyerɛɛ nnipa no wieeɛ no, asɔfoɔ baason a wɔkura nnwennini mmɛn no hyɛɛ aseɛ bɔɔ nsra wɔ Awurade anim a wɔrehyɛn mmɛn no. Na asɔfoɔ a wɔso Awurade Apam Adaka no dii wɔn akyi.
Mofanana ndi mmene Yoswa anayankhulira kwa anthu aja, ansembe asanu ndi awiri anapita patsogolo pa Bokosi la Chipangano la Yehova akuliza malipenga a nyanga za nkhosa zija, ndipo Bokosi la Chipangano cha Yehova limabwera pambuyo pawo.
9 Wɔn a wɔkurakura akodeɛ no bi bɔɔ nsra wɔ asɔfoɔ no a wɔrehyɛn mmɛn no anim, na ebi nso bɔɔ nsra wɔ asɔfoɔ a wɔso Adaka no akyi wɔ ɛberɛ a asɔfoɔ no gu so rehyɛn mmɛn no.
Ankhondo amayenda patsogolo pa ansembe amene amayimba malipenga, ndiponso gulu lina pambuyo pa Bokosilo. Nthawi yonseyi nʼkuti malipenga akulira.
10 Yosua hyɛɛ sɛ, “Monnteam na monnkasa mpo. Mommma asɛm biara mfiri mo anom, kɔsi sɛ mɛka akyerɛ mo sɛ monteam na moateam.”
Koma Yoswa nʼkuti atalamulira anthu kuti, “Musafuwule, musakweze mawu anu kapena kuyankhula mpaka tsiku limene ndidzakuwuzani kuti mufuwule. Pamenepo mudzafuwule!”
11 Enti, ɛda no, wɔsoaa Awurade Adaka no twaa kuropɔn no ho prɛko. Na afei obiara sane kɔɔ atenaeɛ hɔ kɔhomee anadwo no.
Ansembe onyamula Bokosi la Chipangano la Yehova anazungulira mzindawo kamodzi. Kenaka anthu anabwerera ku msasa wawo kukagona.
12 Adeɛ kyeeɛ no, Yosua sɔree anɔpahema, na asɔfoɔ no soaa Awurade Adaka no bio.
Yoswa anadzuka mmawa tsiku linalo ndipo ansembe ananyamula Bokosi la Yehova.
13 Asɔfoɔ baason a wɔkurakura nnwennini mmɛn no bɔɔ nsra wɔ Awurade Adaka no anim wɔ ɛberɛ a wɔrehyɛn wɔn mmɛn. Wɔn a wɔkurakura akodeɛ no bi nso bɔɔ nsra wɔ asɔfoɔ a wɔkurakura mmɛn no anim ne Awurade Adaka no akyi. Saa ɛberɛ no nyinaa na asɔfoɔ no rehyɛne wɔn mmɛn no.
Ansembe asanu ndi awiri onyamula malipenga asanu ndi awiri anakhala patsogolo pa Bokosi la Yehova akuyimba malipenga. Ankhondo anali patsogolo pawo ndipo gulu lina linatsatira Bokosi la Yehova. Apa nʼkuti malipenga akulira.
14 Ɛda a ɛtɔ so mmienu no, wɔbɔɔ nsra twaa kuropɔn no ho prɛko, na wɔsane kɔɔ atenaeɛ hɔ. Wɔkɔɔ so yɛɛ saa ara nnansia.
Tsiku lachiwiri anazunguliranso mzinda kamodzi ndi kubwerera ku misasa. Iwo anachita izi kwa masiku asanu ndi limodzi.
15 Ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no, Israelfoɔ no sɔree anɔpahema, bɔɔ nsra twaa kuropɔn no ho hyiaeɛ, sɛdeɛ wɔayɛ dada no. Nanso, saa ɛberɛ yi deɛ, wɔbɔɔ nsra twaa kuropɔn no ho mprɛnson.
Pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri, anadzuka mʼbandakucha ndipo anazungulira mzindawo kasanu ndi kawiri. Ndi pa tsiku lokhali limene anazungulira mzindawu kasanu ndi kawiri.
16 Ne mprɛnson so no, ɛberɛ a asɔfoɔ no hyɛnee wɔn mmɛn dendeenden ma ɛkyɛreeɛ no, Yosua hyɛɛ ɔmanfoɔ no sɛ, “Monteateam! Na Awurade de kuropɔn no ama mo!
Pomwe amazungulira kachisanu ndi chiwiri, ansembe akuliza malipenga mokweza, Yoswa analamulira anthu kuti “Fuwulani pakuti Yehova wakupatsani mzindawu!
17 Kuropɔn no ne emu nneɛma no, ɛsɛ sɛ mosɛe ne nyinaa sɛ afɔrebɔdeɛ ma Awurade. Odwamanfoɔ Rahab ne nʼafifoɔ nko na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔgyaa wɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔbɔɔ akwansrafoɔ no ho ban.
Mzindawu ndi zonse zimene zili mʼmenemo muziwononge. Rahabe yekha, mayi wadama, ndi aliyense amene ali pamodzi naye mʼnyumba mwake asaphedwe, chifukwa anabisa anthu odzazonda, amene ife tinawatuma
18 Mommfa nneɛma a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔsɛe no no mu biara, sɛ mofa a, mo ankasa na wɔbɛsɛe mo korakora na mode ɔhaw bɛbrɛ Israel nyinaa.
Koma musatenge kanthu kalikonse koyenera kuwonongedwa. Mukadzangotenga kanthu kalikonse koyenera kuwonongedwa, mudzaputa mavuto, misasa ya Israeli idzawonongedwa.
19 Biribiara a wɔde dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ, kɔbere mfrafraeɛ anaa dadeɛ ayɛ no yɛ kronkron ma Awurade, enti ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde ba nʼadekoradan mu.”
Zonse za siliva ndi golide, ziwiya zamkuwa ndi zachitsulo, ndi zake za Yehova ndipo ziyenera kukasungidwa mosungiramo chuma chake.”
20 Ɛberɛ a nnipa no tee mmɛn no nnyegyeeɛ no, wɔteateaam dendeenden sɛdeɛ wɔbɛtumi. Prɛko pɛ Yeriko afasuo no dwiri guu fam maa Israelfoɔ no firi afanan nyinaa to hyɛɛ kuropɔn no so na wɔfaeɛ.
Ansembe analiza malipenga. Anthu atamva kulira kwa malipenga, anafuwula kwambiri ndipo makoma a Yeriko anagwa. Choncho ankhondo anabwera ku mzinda uja nawulanda.
21 Wɔsɛee biribiara a ɛwɔ kuropɔn no mu pasaa, mmarima ne mmaa, mmɔfra ne mpanin, anantwie, nnwan, mfunumu ne biribiara.
Iwo analowa mu mzindawo nawononga ndi lupanga chilichonse chamoyo kuyambira amuna, akazi, ana ndi akulu, ngʼombe, nkhosa ndi abulu.
22 Afei, Yosua ka kyerɛɛ akwansrafoɔ baanu no sɛ, “Monni mo bɔhyɛ no so. Monkɔ odwamanfoɔ no fie na monkɔfa no ne nʼabusuafoɔ nyinaa mmra.”
Yoswa anawuza anthu awiri amene anakazonda dziko aja kuti, “Pitani ku nyumba ya mkazi wadama uja ndipo mukamutulutse iye pamodzi ndi onse amene ali naye ndipo mukabwere nawo kuno, munamulumbirira.”
23 Mmeranteɛ no kɔfaa Rahab, nʼagya, ne maame, ne nuammarima ne abusuafoɔ a na wɔwɔ ne nkyɛn no nyinaa baeɛ. Wɔde abusuafoɔ no nyinaa kɔsiee baabi a ɔhaw biara nni hɔ na ɛbɛn Israelfoɔ atenaeɛ.
Choncho iwo anapita nakatenga Rahabe, abambo ake ndi amayi ake, abale ake ndi onse amene anali naye. Iwo anatulutsa banja lake lonse ndipo analiyika kuseri kwa msasa wa Aisraeli.
24 Afei, Israelfoɔ no hyee kuropɔn no ne emu nneɛma nyinaa. Nneɛma a wɔanhye no yɛ deɛ wɔde dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ, kɔbere mfrafraeɛ anaa dadeɛ ayɛ. Wɔde ne nyinaa kɔsiee Awurade fie adekoradan mu.
Kenaka iwo anawotcha mzinda wonse ndi chilichonse chimene chinali mʼmenemo, kupatulapo zasiliva ndi zagolide pamodzi ndi ziwiya zamkuwa ndi zachitsulo zimene anakaziyika mʼnyumba yosungiramo chuma cha Yehova.
25 Enti, Yosua amfa ne nsa anka odwamanfoɔ Rahab ne nʼabusuafoɔ a na wɔka ne ho wɔ efie no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔde akwansrafoɔ a Yosua somaa wɔn Yeriko no sieeɛ. Enti, ɔte Israelfoɔ mu bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
Koma Yoswa sanaphe Rahabe, mkazi wadamayo pamodzi ndi banja lake ndi onse amene anali naye, chifukwa anabisa anthu amene iye anawatuma kukazonda Yeriko. Zidzukulu zake za Rahabeyo zikukhala pakati pa Aisraeli mpaka lero.
26 Saa ɛberɛ no, Yosua kaa saa nnome nsɛm yi: “Awurade nnome mmra obiara a ɔyɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔbɛkyekyere Yeriko kuropɔn no bio. “Ɔde nʼabakan na ɛbɛhyɛ aseɛ, na ɔde nʼakumaa na ɛbɛsisi ano apono.”
Pa nthawi imeneyo Yoswa anapereka chenjezo motemberera kuti, “Akhale wotembereredwa pamaso pa Yehova munthu amene adzamangenso mzinda uwu wa Yeriko: “Aliyense amene adzayike maziko ake, mwana wake wamwamuna wachisamba adzafa, aliyense womanga zipata zake mwana wake wamngʼono adzafa.”
27 Na Awurade kaa Yosua ho na ne din hyetaa asase no so nyinaa.
Motero Yehova anali ndi Yoswa, ndipo mbiri yake inafalikira dziko lonse.
