Joshua 10
1 Ní báyìí tí Adoni-Sedeki ọba Jerusalẹmu gbọ́ pé Joṣua ti gba Ai, tí ó sì ti pa wọ́n pátápátá; tí ó sì ṣe sí Ai àti ọba rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣe sí Jeriko àti ọba rẹ̀, àti bí àwọn ènìyàn Gibeoni ti ṣe àdéhùn àlàáfíà pẹ̀lú Israẹli, tí wọ́n sì ń gbé nítòsí wọn.
Now Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had captured Ai and devoted it to destruction —doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king—and that the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living near them.
2 Ìbẹ̀rù sì mú òun àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ torí pé Gibeoni jẹ́ ìlú tí ó ṣe pàtàkì, bí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ìlú ọba; ó tóbi ju Ai lọ, gbogbo ọkùnrin rẹ̀ ní ó jẹ́ jagunjagun.
So Adoni-zedek and his people were greatly alarmed, because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities; it was larger than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
3 Nítorí náà Adoni-Sedeki ọba Jerusalẹmu bẹ Hohamu ọba Hebroni, Piramu ọba Jarmatu, Jafia ọba Lakiṣi àti Debiri ọba Egloni. Wí pe,
Therefore Adoni-zedek king of Jerusalem sent word to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying,
4 “Ẹ gòkè wá, kí ẹ sì ràn mi lọ́wọ́ láti kọlu Gibeoni, nítorí tí ó ti wà ní ìrẹ́pọ̀ pẹ̀lú Joṣua àti àwọn ará Israẹli.”
“Come up and help me. We will attack Gibeon, because they have made peace with Joshua and the Israelites.”
5 Àwọn ọba Amori márààrún, ọba Jerusalẹmu, Hebroni, Jarmatu, Lakiṣi àti Egloni, kó ara wọn jọ, wọ́n sì gòkè, àwọn àti gbogbo ogun wọn, wọ́n sì dojúkọ Gibeoni, wọ́n sì kọlù ú.
So the five kings of the Amorites—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon—joined forces and advanced with all their armies. They camped before Gibeon and made war against it.
6 Àwọn ará Gibeoni sì ránṣẹ́ sí Joṣua ní ibùdó ní Gilgali pé, “Ẹ má ṣe fi ìránṣẹ́ yín sílẹ̀. Ẹ gòkè tọ̀ wà wá ní kánkán kí ẹ sì gbà wá là. Ẹ ràn wá lọ́wọ́, nítorí gbogbo àwọn ọba Amori tí ń gbé ní orílẹ̀-èdè òkè dojú ìjà kọ wá.”
Then the men of Gibeon sent word to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal: “Do not abandon your servants. Come quickly and save us! Help us, because all the kings of the Amorites from the hill country have joined forces against us.”
7 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joṣua gòkè lọ láti Gilgali pẹ̀lú gbogbo ogun rẹ̀, àti akọni nínú àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀.
So Joshua and his whole army, including all the mighty men of valor, came from Gilgal.
8 Olúwa sì sọ fún Joṣua pé, “Má ṣe bẹ̀rù wọn, Mo ti fi wọ́n lé ọ lọ́wọ́. Kò sí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú wọn ti yóò lè dojúkọ ọ́.”
The LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for I have delivered them into your hand. Not one of them shall stand against you.”
9 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti wọ́de ogun ní gbogbo òru náà láti Gilgali, Joṣua sì yọ sí wọn lójijì.
After marching all night from Gilgal, Joshua caught them by surprise.
10 Olúwa mú kí wọn dààmú níwájú àwọn Israẹli, wọ́n sì pa wọ́n ní ìpakúpa ní Gibeoni. Israẹli sì lépa wọn ní ọ̀nà tí ó lọ sí Beti-Horoni, ó sì pa wọ́n dé Aseka, àti Makkeda.
And the LORD threw them into confusion before Israel, who defeated them in a great slaughter at Gibeon, pursued them along the ascent to Beth-horon, and struck them down as far as Azekah and Makkedah.
11 Bí wọ́n sì tí ń sá ní iwájú Israẹli ní gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ ní ọ̀nà láti Beti-Horoni títí dé Aseka, Olúwa rọ yìnyín ńlá sí wọn láti ọ̀run wá, àwọn tí ó ti ipa yìnyín kú sì pọ̀ ju àwọn tí àwọn ará Israẹli fi idà pa lọ.
As they fled before Israel along the descent from Beth-horon to Azekah, the LORD cast down on them large hailstones from the sky, and more of them were killed by the hailstones than by the swords of the Israelites.
12 Ní ọjọ́ tí Olúwa fi àwọn ọmọ Amori lé Israẹli lọ́wọ́, Joṣua sọ fún Olúwa níwájú àwọn ará Israẹli, “Ìwọ oòrùn, dúró jẹ́ẹ́ ní orí Gibeoni, Ìwọ òṣùpá, dúró jẹ́ẹ́ lórí àfonífojì Aijaloni.”
On the day that the LORD gave the Amorites over to the Israelites, Joshua spoke to the LORD in the presence of Israel: “O sun, stand still over Gibeon, O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.”
13 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni oòrùn náà sì dúró jẹ́ẹ́, òṣùpá náà sì dúró, títí tí ìlú náà fi gbẹ̀san lára àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ́ nínú ìwé Jaṣari. Oòrùn sì dúró ní agbede-méjì ọ̀run, kò sì wọ̀ ní ìwọ̀n odindi ọjọ́ kan.
So the sun stood still and the moon stopped until the nation took vengeance upon its enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? “So the sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.”
14 Kò sí ọjọ́ tí o dàbí rẹ̀ ṣáájú tàbí ní ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, ọjọ́ tí Olúwa gbọ́ ohùn ènìyàn. Dájúdájú Olúwa jà fún Israẹli!
There has been no day like it before or since, when the LORD listened to the voice of a man, because the LORD fought for Israel.
15 Nígbà náà ni Joṣua àti gbogbo Israẹli padà sí ibùdó ní Gilgali.
Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.
16 Ní báyìí àwọn ọba Amori márùn-ún ti sálọ, wọ́n sì fi ara pamọ́ nínú ihò àpáta kan ní Makkeda,
Now the five kings had fled and hidden in the cave at Makkedah.
17 nígbà tí wọ́n sọ fún Joṣua pé, a ti rí àwọn ọba márààrún, ti ó fi ara pamọ́ nínú ihò àpáta ní Makkeda,
And Joshua was informed: “The five kings have been found; they are hiding in the cave at Makkedah.”
18 ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ yí òkúta ńlá dí ẹnu ihò àpáta náà, kí ẹ sì yan àwọn ọkùnrin sí ibẹ̀ láti ṣọ́ ọ.
So Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave, and post men there to guard them.
19 Ṣùgbọ́n, ẹ má ṣe dúró! Ẹ lépa àwọn ọ̀tá yín, ẹ kọlù wọ́n láti ẹ̀yìn, kí ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ kí wọn kí ó dé ìlú wọn, nítorí tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín tí fi wọ́n lé yín lọ́wọ́.”
But you, do not stop there. Pursue your enemies and attack them from behind. Do not let them reach their cities, for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand.”
20 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ní Joṣua àti àwọn ọmọ Israẹli pa wọ́n ní ìpakúpa wọ́n sì pa gbogbo ọmọ-ogun àwọn ọba márààrún run, àyàfi àwọn díẹ̀ tí wọ́n tiraka láti dé ìlú olódi wọn.
So Joshua and the Israelites continued to inflict a terrible slaughter until they had finished them off, and the remaining survivors retreated to the fortified cities.
21 Gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-ogun sì padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ Joṣua ní ibùdó ogun ní Makkeda ní àlàáfíà, kò sí àwọn tí ó dábàá láti tún kọlu Israẹli.
The whole army returned safely to Joshua in the camp at Makkedah, and no one dared to utter a word against the Israelites.
22 Joṣua sì wí pe, “Ẹ ṣí ẹnu ihò náà, kí ẹ sì mú àwọn ọba márààrún jáde wá fún mi.”
Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and bring those five kings out to me.”
23 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì mú àwọn ọba márààrún náà kúrò nínú ihò àpáta, àwọn ọba Jerusalẹmu, Hebroni, Jarmatu, Lakiṣi àti Egloni.
So they brought the five kings out of the cave—the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish, and Eglon.
24 Nígbà tí wọ́n mú àwọn ọba náà tọ Joṣua wá, ó pe gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin Israẹli, ó sì sọ fún àwọn olórí ọmọ-ogun tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ súnmọ́ bí, kí ẹ sì fi ẹsẹ̀ yín lé ọrùn àwọn ọba wọ̀nyí.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n wá sí iwájú, wọ́n sì gbé ẹsẹ̀ lé ọrùn wọn.
When they had brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned all the men of Israel and said to the army commanders who had accompanied him, “Come here and put your feet on the necks of these kings.” So the commanders came forward and put their feet on their necks.
25 Joṣua sì sọ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù, ẹ má sì ṣe fòyà. Ẹ ṣe gírí, kí ẹ sì mú àyà le. Báyìí ni Olúwa yóò ṣe sí gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá yín, tí ẹ̀yin yóò bá jà.”
“Do not be afraid or discouraged,” Joshua said. “Be strong and courageous, for the LORD will do this to all the enemies you fight.”
26 Nígbà náà ni Joṣua kọlù wọ́n, ó sì pa àwọn ọba márààrún náà, ó sì so wọ́n rọ̀ ní orí igi ọ̀tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀ márùn-ún, wọ́n sì fi wọ́n sí orí igi títí di ìrọ̀lẹ́.
After this, Joshua struck down and killed the kings, and he hung their bodies on five trees and left them there until evening.
27 Nígbà tí oòrùn wọ̀, Joṣua pàṣẹ, wọ́n sì sọ̀ wọ́n kalẹ̀ kúrò ní orí igi, wọ́n sì gbé wọn jù sí inú ihò àpáta ní ibi tí wọ́n sá pamọ́ sí. Wọ́n sì fi òkúta ńlá dí ẹnu ihò náà, tí ó sì wà níbẹ̀ di òní yìí.
At sunset Joshua ordered that they be taken down from the trees and thrown into the cave in which they had hidden. Then large stones were placed against the mouth of the cave, and the stones are there to this day.
28 Ní ọjọ́ náà Joṣua gba Makkeda. Ó sì fi ojú idà kọlu ìlú náà àti ọba rẹ̀, ó sì run gbogbo wọn pátápátá, kò fi ẹnìkan sílẹ̀. Ó sì ṣe sí ọba Makkeda gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ti ṣe sí ọba Jeriko.
On that day Joshua captured Makkedah and put it to the sword, along with its king. He devoted to destruction everyone in the city, leaving no survivors. So he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
29 Nígbà náà ní Joṣua àti gbogbo Israẹli tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ kọjá láti Makkeda lọ sí Libina wọ́n sì kọlù ú.
Then Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Makkedah to Libnah and fought against Libnah.
30 Olúwa sì fi ìlú náà àti ọba rẹ̀ lé Israẹli lọ́wọ́. Ìlú náà àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ibẹ̀ ni Joṣua fi idà pa. Kò fi ẹnìkan sílẹ̀ ní ibẹ̀: Ó sì ṣe sí ọba rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣe sí ọba Jeriko.
And the LORD also delivered that city and its king into the hand of Israel, and Joshua put all the people to the sword, leaving no survivors. And he did to the king of Libnah as he had done to the king of Jericho.
31 Nígbà náà ni Joṣua àti gbogbo ará Israẹli, tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ kọjá láti Libina lọ sí Lakiṣi; ó sì dó tì í, ó sì kọlù ú.
And Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Libnah to Lachish. They laid siege to it and fought against it.
32 Olúwa sì fi Lakiṣi lé Israẹli lọ́wọ́, Joṣua sì gbà á ní ọjọ́ kejì. Ìlú náà àti gbogbo ènìyàn ibẹ̀ ní ó fi idà pa gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣe sí Libina.
And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, and Joshua captured it on the second day. He put all the people to the sword, just as he had done to Libnah.
33 Ní àkókò yìí, Horamu ọba Geseri gòkè láti ran Lakiṣi lọ́wọ́, ṣùgbọ́n Joṣua ṣẹ́gun rẹ̀ àti àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀ títí ti kò fi ku ẹnìkan sílẹ̀.
At that time Horam king of Gezer went to help Lachish, but Joshua struck him down along with his people, leaving no survivors.
34 Nígbà náà ni Joṣua àti gbogbo Israẹli tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ kọjá láti Lakiṣi lọ sí Egloni; wọ́n sì dó tì í, wọ́n sì kọlù ú.
So Joshua moved on from Lachish to Eglon, and all Israel with him. They laid siege to it and fought against it.
35 Wọ́n gbà á ní ọjọ́ náà, wọ́n sì fi ojú idà kọlù ú, wọ́n sì run gbogbo ènìyàn ibẹ̀ pátápátá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ti ṣe sí Lakiṣi.
That day they captured Eglon and put it to the sword, and Joshua devoted to destruction everyone in the city, just as he had done to Lachish.
36 Nígbà náà ni Joṣua àti gbogbo Israẹli ṣí láti Egloni lọ sí Hebroni, wọ́n sì kọlù ú.
Then Joshua and all Israel with him went up from Eglon to Hebron and fought against it.
37 Wọ́n gba ìlú náà, wọ́n sì ti idà bọ̀ ọ́, pẹ̀lú ọba rẹ̀, gbogbo ìletò wọn àti gbogbo ènìyàn ibẹ̀. Wọn kò dá ẹnìkan sí. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ti Egloni, wọ́n run un pátápátá àti gbogbo ènìyàn inú rẹ̀.
They captured it and put to the sword its king, all its villages, and all the people. Joshua left no survivors, just as he had done at Eglon; he devoted to destruction Hebron and everyone in it.
38 Nígbà náà ni Joṣua àti gbogbo Israẹli tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ yí padà, wọ́n sì kọlu Debiri.
Finally Joshua and all Israel with him turned toward Debir and fought against it.
39 Wọ́n gba ìlú náà, ọba rẹ̀ àti gbogbo ìlú wọn, wọ́n sì fi idà pa wọ́n. Gbogbo ènìyàn inú rẹ̀ ni wọ́n parun pátápátá. Wọn kò sì dá ẹnìkankan sí. Wọ́n ṣe sí Debiri àti ọba rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọn ti ṣe sí Libina àti ọba rẹ̀ àti sí Hebroni.
And they captured Debir, its king, and all its villages. They put them to the sword and devoted to destruction everyone in the city, leaving no survivors. Joshua did to Debir and its king as he had done to Hebron and as he had done to Libnah and its king.
40 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joṣua ṣẹ́gun gbogbo agbègbè náà, ìlú òkè, gúúsù, ìlú ẹsẹ̀ òkè ti ìhà ìwọ̀-oòrùn àti gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ òkè pẹ̀lú gbogbo ọba, wọn kò dá ẹnìkankan sí. Ó pa gbogbo ohun alààyè run pátápátá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, ti pàṣẹ.
So Joshua conquered the whole region—the hill country, the Negev, the foothills, and the slopes, together with all their kings—leaving no survivors. He devoted to destruction everything that breathed, just as the LORD, the God of Israel, had commanded.
41 Joṣua sì ṣẹ́gun wọn láti Kadeṣi-Barnea sí Gasa àti láti gbogbo agbègbè Goṣeni lọ sí Gibeoni.
Joshua conquered the area from Kadesh-barnea to Gaza, and the whole region of Goshen as far as Gibeon.
42 Gbogbo àwọn ọba wọ̀nyí àti ilẹ̀ wọn ní Joṣua ṣẹ́gun ní ìwọ́de ogun ẹ̀ẹ̀kan, nítorí tí Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, jà fún Israẹli.
And because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel, Joshua captured all these kings and their land in one campaign.
43 Nígbà náà ni Joṣua padà sí ibùdó ní Gilgali pẹ̀lú gbogbo Israẹli.
Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.
