< 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 when Adoni-Zedek, king of Jerusalem, heard that Joshua had captured Ai and had completely destroyed it (just as he had done to Jericho and its king), he also heard how the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living among 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.
The people of Jerusalem were very afraid because Gibeon was a large city, like one of the royal cities. It was larger than Ai, and all its men were mighty warriors.
3 Nítorí náà Adoni-Sedeki ọba Jerusalẹmu bẹ Hohamu ọba Hebroni, Piramu ọba Jarmatu, Jafia ọba Lakiṣi àti Debiri ọba Egloni. Wí pe,
So Adoni-Zedek, king of Jerusalem, sent a message to Hoham, king of Hebron, to Piram, king of Jarmuth, to Japhia, king of Lachish, and to Debir, king of Eglon:
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 to me and help me. Let us attack Gibeon because they have made peace with Joshua and with the people of Israel.”
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.
The five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon came up, they and all their armies. They set up their positions against Gibeon, and they attacked 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.”
The people of Gibeon sent a message to Joshua and to the army at Gilgal. They said, “Hurry! Do not withdraw your hands from your servants. Come up to us quickly and save us. Help us, for all the kings of the Amorites who live in the hill country have gathered together to attack us.”
7 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joṣua gòkè lọ láti Gilgali pẹ̀lú gbogbo ogun rẹ̀, àti akọni nínú àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀.
Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the men of war with him, and all the fighting men.
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.”
Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them. I have given them into your hand. Not one of them will be able to stop your attack.”
9 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti wọ́de ogun ní gbogbo òru náà láti Gilgali, Joṣua sì yọ sí wọn lójijì.
Joshua came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal.
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.
Yahweh confused the enemy before Israel, and Israel killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon and pursued them on the road going up to Beth Horon, and they killed them on the road to 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 ran away from Israel, down the hill from Beth Horon, Yahweh threw large stones down from heaven upon them all the way to Azekah, and they died. There were more who died because of the hailstones than who were killed with the sword by the men of Israel.
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.”
Then Joshua spoke to Yahweh on the day Yahweh gave the men of Israel victory over the Amorites. This is what Joshua said to Yahweh before Israel, “Sun, be still at Gibeon, and moon, in 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.
The sun stood still, and the moon stopped moving until the nation took vengeance on their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the middle of the sky; it did not go down for about a whole 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 other day like it before or after it, when Yahweh obeyed the voice of a human being. For Yahweh was waging war on behalf of Israel.
15 Nígbà náà ni Joṣua àti gbogbo Israẹli padà sí ibùdó ní Gilgali.
Joshua and all Israel with him returned 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 escaped and hidden themselves 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,
It was told to Joshua, “They have been found!—the five kings hidden 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.
Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave and place soldiers 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.”
Do not stay yourselves. Pursue your enemies and attack them from the rear. Do not permit them to enter into their cities, because Yahweh your God has given 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.
Joshua and the sons of Israel had finished slaughtering them with a very great slaughter, until they were almost completely destroyed; only a few survivors who escaped reached 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.
Then the whole army returned in peace to Joshua at the camp at Makkedah. No one dared to say one word against any of the people of Israel.
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 out of the cave bring to me these five kings.”
23 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n sì mú àwọn ọba márààrún náà kúrò nínú ihò àpáta, àwọn ọba Jerusalẹmu, Hebroni, Jarmatu, Lakiṣi àti Egloni.
They did as he said. They brought to him these five kings from the cave—the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of 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 brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned every man of Israel. He said to the commanders of the soldiers who had gone into battle with him, “Put your feet on their necks.” So they came up 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.”
Then he said to them, “Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed. Be strong and courageous. This is what Yahweh will do to all your enemies you are going to 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.
Then Joshua attacked and killed the kings. He hung them on five trees. They hung on the trees 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.
When it was sunset, Joshua gave orders, and they took them down from the trees and threw them into the cave where they had hidden themselves. They put large stones over the mouth of the cave. Those stones remain there to this very 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.
In this way, Joshua captured Makkedah on that day and killed everyone there with the sword, including its king. He completely destroyed everyone in it. He left no survivor in it. He did to the king of Makkedah just 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.
Joshua and all Israel passed on from Makkedah to Libnah. He went into battle 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.
Yahweh also gave it into the hand of Israel—along with their king. Joshua struck it with the edge of the sword and every person in it. He left no survivor in it. He did to its king just 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.
Then Joshua and all Israel with him passed on from Libnah to Lachish. He camped by it and waged war 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.
Yahweh gave Lachish into the hand of Israel. Joshua captured it on the second day and struck it with the edge of the sword, and every person in it, 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.
Then Horam, king of Gezer, came up to help Lachish. Joshua attacked him and his army until there was not even one survivor left.
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.
Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Lachish to Eglon. They camped by it and waged war 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.
and captured it that same day. They struck it with the edge of the sword and they completely destroyed everyone in it, as Joshua 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 passed on from Eglon to Hebron. They waged war 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 struck it with the edge of the sword, and its king and its villages, and everyone in it. They left no survivor it, as they had done to Eglon, they totally destroyed it and every person in it.
38 Nígbà náà ni Joṣua àti gbogbo Israẹli tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ yí padà, wọ́n sì kọlu Debiri.
Then Joshua turned, and all the army of Israel with him, and they passed on to Debir and waged war 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.
They captured it, its king and all its nearby villages. They struck them with the edge of the sword and completely destroyed every person in it. They left no survivor. They did to Debir and its king as they had done to Libnah and its king and to Hebron.
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.
Joshua conquered all the land, the hill country, the Negev, the lowlands, and the foothills. Of all their kings he left not one survivor. He completely destroyed every living thing, just as Yahweh, 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 struck them from Kadesh Barnea to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen to Gibeon.

Joshua captured all these kings and their land at one time because Yahweh, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.
43 Nígbà náà ni Joṣua padà sí ibùdó ní Gilgali pẹ̀lú gbogbo Israẹli.
Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, returned to the camp at Gilgal.
