Atemmufoɔ 1
1 Yosua wuo akyi no, Israelfoɔ bisaa Awurade sɛ, “Abusuakuo bɛn na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkɔto hyɛ Kanaanfoɔ no so kane?”
Thuutha wa Joshua gũkua, andũ a Isiraeli makĩũria Jehova atĩrĩ, “Nĩ a mekwambata mathiĩ mbere magatũhũũranĩre kũrĩ andũ a Kaanani?”
2 Awurade buaa sɛ, “Yuda na ɛsɛ sɛ ɔkɔ; mede asase no so die ahyɛ wɔn nsam.”
Nake Jehova agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Andũ a Juda nĩo megũthiĩ, tondũ nĩneanĩte bũrũri ũcio moko-inĩ mao.”
3 Enti, Yuda ntuanofoɔ ka kyerɛɛ wɔn nuanom Simeon abusuakuo no sɛ, “Mommɛka yɛn ho na yɛnko ntia Kanaanfoɔ a wɔte asase a wɔde ama yɛn no so. Yɛn nso, yɛbɛboa mo ama moako afa mo asase.” Enti, Simeonfoɔ mmarima no ne Yudafoɔ no kɔeɛ.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ a Juda makĩĩra andũ a Simeoni, ariũ a ithe wao, atĩrĩ, “Ũkai mwambatanie na ithuĩ tũtoonye bũrũri ũrĩa twagaĩirwo, tũkahũũrane na andũ a Kaanani, na ithuĩ nĩtũgaacooka tũthiĩ na inyuĩ tũkahũũranĩre igai rĩanyu.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Simeoni magĩthiĩ hamwe nao.
4 Ɛberɛ a Yuda kɔɔ wɔn so no, Awurade ma wɔdii Kanaanfoɔ ne Perisifoɔ no so nkonim, na wɔkunkumm atamfoɔ akofoɔ ɔpedu wɔ Besek.
Rĩrĩa andũ a Juda maamatharĩkĩire-rĩ, Jehova akĩneana andũ a Kaanani na Aperizi moko-inĩ mao, nao andũ a Juda makĩũraga arũme 10,000 kũu Bezeki.
5 Besek hɔ, wɔne ɔhene Adoni-Besek hyiaeɛ, na wɔko tiaa no, dii Kanaanfoɔ no ne Perisifoɔ no so nkonim.
Kũu nĩkuo maakorire Adoni-Bezeki, makĩhũũrana nake, magĩtooria andũ a Kaanani na Aperizi.
6 Adoni-Besek dwaneeɛ, nanso ankyɛre na Israelfoɔ kɔkyeree no twitwaa ne nsa ne ne nan kokurobetie.
Adoni-Bezeki akĩũra, no makĩmũtengʼeria, makĩmũnyiita, makĩmũtinia ciara iria nene cia moko na iria nene cia magũrũ.
7 Ɛmaa Adoni-Besek kaa sɛ, “Ɛberɛ bi na mewɔ Ahemfo aduɔson a wɔatwitwa wɔn kokurobetie bɛtasee mporoporowa wɔ me didipono ase. Afei, Awurade atua me deɛ meyɛɛ wɔn no so ka.” Wɔde no kɔɔ Yerusalem na ɔwuu wɔ hɔ.
Nake Adoni-Bezeki akiuga atĩrĩ, “Athamaki mĩrongo mũgwanja matinĩtio ciara ciao iria nene cia moko na iria nene cia magũrũ, moonganagia rũitĩki rwa irio rungu rwa metha yakwa. Na rĩrĩ, Ngai nĩandĩhĩte nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa ndeekire.” Nao makĩmũtwara Jerusalemu, na agĩkuĩra kuo.
8 Yuda mmarima no to hyɛɛ Yerusalem so, dii so nkonim. Wɔkunkumm kuropɔn no so nnipa nyinaa, too mu ogya.
Ningĩ andũ a Juda magĩtharĩkĩra itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu, o narĩo makĩrĩtunyana, makĩũraga andũ a itũũra rĩu na hiũ cia njora, magĩcooka makĩrĩcina na mwaki.
9 Ɛno akyi, wɔdane faa anafoɔ fam, kɔto hyɛɛ Kanaanfoɔ a wɔtete bepɔ asase, Negeb ne atɔeɛ fam nkokoɔ so no so.
Thuutha wa ũguo, andũ a Juda magĩikũrũka makahũũrane na andũ a Kaanani arĩa maatũũraga bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Negevu na magũrũ-inĩ ma irĩma cia mwena wa ithũĩro.
10 Yuda bɔ wuraa Kanaanfoɔ a na wɔte Hebron a kane no na wɔfrɛ hɔ Kiriat-Arba no mu, dii Sesai, Ahiman ne Talmai so.
Ningĩ magĩthiĩ kũhũũrana na andũ a Kaanani arĩa maatũũraga kũu Hebironi (kũrĩa tene gwetagwo Kiriathu-Ariba) maathiĩ makĩhoota Sheshai, na Ahimani, na Talimai.
11 Wɔfiri hɔ kɔtoaa nnipa a wɔte Debir a kane no na wɔfrɛ hɔ (Kiriat-Sefer no).
Kuuma kũu magĩthiĩ kũrũa na andũ arĩa maatũũraga Debiri (kũrĩa tene gwetagwo Kiriathu-Sefari.)
12 Na Kaleb kaa sɛ, “Obiara a ɔbɛto ahyɛ Kiriat-Sefer so na wafa no, mede me babaa Aksa bɛma no aware.”
Nake Kalebu akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũgũtharĩkĩra na atunyane Kiriathu-Sefari-rĩ, ũcio nĩwe ngũhe mwarĩ wakwa Akisa, amũhikie.”
13 Ɛnna Kaleb nua kumaa Kenas babarima Otniel kɔfaeɛ. Enti, Aksa bɛyɛɛ Otniel yere.
Nake Othinieli, mũrũ wa Kenazu, mũrũ wa ithe na Kalebu ũrĩa mũnini, nĩwe watunyanire itũũra rĩu. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Kalebu akĩmũhe mwarĩ Akisa atuĩke mũtumia wake.
14 Aksa waree Otniel no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔmmisa nʼagya Kaleb na ɔmma wɔn asase nka deɛ wɔwɔ no ho. Ɔfiri nʼafunumu so sii fam ara pɛ, Kaleb bisaa no sɛ, “Asɛm bɛn? Ɛdeɛn na menyɛ mma wo?”
Mũthenya ũmwe Akisa nĩathiire kũrĩ Othinieli, nake akĩringĩrĩria Akisa ahooe mũgũnda kũrĩ ithe Kalebu. Aarĩkia kuuma igũrũ rĩa ndigiri yake, Kalebu akĩũria mwarĩ atĩrĩ, “Ũkwenda ngwĩkĩre atĩa?”
15 Ɔbuaa sɛ, “Ma me nhyira bio. Woadom me ama me asase wɔ Negeb, na mesrɛ wo ma me asase a nsuo wɔ so.” Enti, Kaleb maa no atifi ne anafoɔ fam nsuwansuwa asase.
Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndagũthaitha ũndathime. Tondũ nĩũũheete bũrũri wa Negevu, he ithima cia maaĩ o nacio.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Kalebu akĩmũhe ithima cia mwena wa rũgongo na cia mwena wa kĩanda.
16 Ɛberɛ a Yuda abusuakuo firii Yeriko no, Kenifoɔ a wɔyɛ Mose ase barima asefoɔ ne wɔn kɔɔ Yuda ɛserɛ no so. Wɔtenaa nnipa a wɔwɔ hɔ no mu wɔ beaeɛ bi a ɛbɛn Arad a ɛwɔ Negeb.
Nacio njiaro cia mũthoni-we wa Musa, ũrĩa Mũkeni, ikĩambata ikiuma Itũũra Inene rĩa Mĩkĩndũ irĩ hamwe na andũ a Juda, igĩthiĩ gũtũũrania na andũ a werũ wa Juda ũrĩa ũrĩ Negevu gũkuhĩ na Aradi.
17 Afei, Yuda ne Simeon ka bɔɔ mu ko tiaa Kanaanfoɔ a wɔte Sefat no sɛee kuro no pasaa. Enti, wɔtoo kuro no edin Horma.
Nao andũ a Juda magĩthiĩ hamwe na andũ a Simeoni ariũ a ithe wao, na magĩtharĩkĩra andũ a Kaanani arĩa maatũũraga Zefathu, nao makĩananga itũũra rĩu inene biũ. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio rĩgĩtwo Horoma.
18 Ɛno akyi, Yuda ko faa nkuropɔn Gasa, Askelon ne Ekron ne wɔn nsase a atwa wɔn ho ahyia.
O na ningĩ andũ a Juda magĩtunyana matũũra manene ma Gaza, na Ashikeloni, na Ekironi, o itũũra inene na bũrũri warĩo.
19 Na Awurade ka Yuda nkurɔfoɔ ho enti, ɛmaa wɔfaa bepɔ nsase no. Nanso, wɔantumi ampam nnipa a wɔte tata so no amfiri hɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔwɔ nnadeɛ nteaseɛnam.
Jehova aarĩ hamwe na andũ a Juda. Magĩkĩĩnyiitĩra bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma, no matiahotire kũingata andũ arĩa maatũũraga kũrĩa kwaraganu, nĩgũkorwo maarĩ na ngaari cia ita cia igera.
20 Wɔde Hebron kuropɔn maa Kaleb sɛdeɛ na Mose ahyɛ ho bɔ no. Na Kaleb pamoo nnipa a na wɔyɛ Anak mmammarima baasa no asefoɔ no firii hɔ.
Na o ta ũrĩa Musa eeranĩire, Hebironi kwaheirwo Kalebu, nake akĩingata ariũ atatũ a Anaki kuuma kuo.
21 Benyamin abusuakuo no antumi ampam Yebusifoɔ a na wɔte Yerusalem no. Enti, ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ yi, Yebusifoɔ ne Benyamin nkurɔfoɔ da so te Yerusalem.
No rĩrĩ, andũ a Benjamini nĩmaremirwo nĩ kũingata andũ a Jebusi arĩa maatũũraga Jerusalemu. Andũ a Jebusi matũũranagia na andũ a Benjamini kũu Jerusalemu nginya ũmũthĩ.
22 Yosef asefoɔ kɔto hyɛɛ Bet-El kuro no so, na Awurade kaa wɔn ho.
Na rĩrĩ, andũ a nyũmba ya Jusufu magĩtharĩkĩra Betheli, nake Jehova aarĩ hamwe nao.
23 Wɔsomaa akwansrafoɔ kɔɔ Bet-El (a kane no na wɔfrɛ no Lus) hɔ.
Rĩrĩa maatũmire andũ magathigaane Betheli (kũrĩa mbere ĩyo gwetagwo Luzu),
24 Wɔde nsɛmmisa puapuaa ɔbarima bi a na ɔfiri kuropɔn no mu reba. Wɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Kyerɛ yɛn ɛkwan a wɔde kɔ kuropɔn no mu na yɛn nso, yɛbɛhunu wo mmɔbɔ.”
athigaani acio makĩona mũndũ akiuma kũu itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tuonie ũrĩa tũngĩtoonya itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene, na nĩtũgaagwĩka maũndũ mega.”
25 Enti, ɔkyerɛɛ wɔn kuropɔn no kwan ma wɔkɔkunkumm kuropɔn no mu nnipa nyinaa, na wɔgyaa ɔbarima no ne nʼabusuafoɔ.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩmoonia, nao makĩũraga andũ a itũũra rĩu inene na rũhiũ rwa njora, no makĩhonokia mũndũ ũcio na nyũmba yake yothe.
26 Akyire no, ɔbarima no tutu kɔɔ Hetifoɔ asase so. Ɔkyekyeree kuropɔn wɔ hɔ. Ɔtoo kuropɔn no edin Lus. Na saa edin no da kuropɔn no so de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
