Joshua 2
1 Joshua the son of Nun secretly sent two men out of Shittim as spies, saying, “Go, view the land, including Jericho.” They went and came into the house of a prostitute whose name was Rahab, and slept there.
HOOUNA aku la o Iosua, ke keiki a Nuna i na kanaka elua, mai Sitima aku e kiu malu, i ae la, Ou haele e makai i ka aina ia Ieriko. Hele aku laua a komo iloko o ka hale o kekahi wahine hookamakama, o Rahaba kona inoa, a moe iho la laua malaila.
2 The king of Jericho was told, “Behold, men of the children of Israel came in here tonight to spy out the land.”
Ua haiia'ku la i ke alii o Ieriko, i ka i ana aku, Aia hoi, ua hele mai nei i ka po, kekahi mau kanaka, no na mamo a Iseraela e makai i ka aina.
3 Jericho’s king sent to Rahab, saying, “Bring out the men who have come to you, who have entered into your house; for they have come to spy out all the land.”
Hoouna aku la ke alii o Ieriko, i aku la ia Rahaba, E lawe mai oe iwaho i ua mau kanaka la i hele mai iou la, a i komo iloko o kou hale; no ka mea, ua hele mai laua e makai i ka aina a pau.
4 The woman took the two men and hid them. Then she said, “Yes, the men came to me, but I didn’t know where they came from.
Lawe ae la ka wahine i ua mau kanaka la elua, huna iho la ia laua a olelo aku la penei, Hele mai la kekahi mau kanaka io'u nei, aole hoi au i ike i kahi a laua i hele mai ai:
5 About the time of the shutting of the gate, when it was dark, the men went out. Where the men went, I don’t know. Pursue them quickly. You may catch up with them.”
A i ke pani ana o ka puka i ka poeleele, hele aku la ua mau kanaka la iwaho. Aole au i ike i ko laua wahi i hele ai. E hahai koke aku ia laua, a e loaa no.
6 But she had brought them up to the roof, and hidden them under the stalks of flax which she had laid in order on the roof.
Aka, ua lawe ae la ia ia laua maluna o ka hale, a huna iho la ia laua malalo iho o kahi olona ana i hoonohonoho ai, ma ia wahi maluna.
7 The men pursued them along the way to the fords of the Jordan River. As soon as those who pursued them had gone out, they shut the gate.
Hahai aku la na kanaka ia laua ma ke ala e hiki aku ai i Ioredane, a hiki i ke ahua. A puka aku la ka poe hahai iwaho, alaila, paniia iho la ka puka.
8 Before they had lain down, she came up to them on the roof.
Mamua o ko laua moe ana, pii aku la ua wahine nei io laua la maluna o ka hale;
9 She said to the men, “I know that Yahweh has given you the land, and that the fear of you has fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt away before you.
I aku la ia i ua mau kanaka la, Ua ike no wau, ua haawi mai o Iehova i ka aina no oukou, a ua kau mai ka weliweli ia oukou maluna o makou, a ua maule ka poe a pau e noho nei ma keia aina ia oukou.
10 For we have heard how Yahweh dried up the water of the Red Sea before you, when you came out of Egypt; and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon and to Og, whom you utterly destroyed.
No ka mea, ua lohe makou i ko Iehova hoomaloo ana i ka wai o ke Kaiula imua o oukou, i ka wa i puka mai ai oukou mailoko mai o Aigupita; a me ka mea a oukou i hana aku ai i na'lii elua o ka Amora ma kela aoao o Ioredane, ia Sihona, laua o Oga, i na mea a oukou i anai loa ai.
11 As soon as we had heard it, our hearts melted, and there wasn’t any more spirit in any man, because of you: for Yahweh your God, he is God in heaven above, and on earth beneath.
A lohe makou, maule iho la ko makou mau naau, aole i koe ke aho iloko o kekahi kanaka imua o oukou; no ka mea, o Iehova, ko oukou Akua, oia ke Akua maluna, ma ka lani, a malalo hoi ma ka honua.
12 Now therefore, please swear to me by Yahweh, since I have dealt kindly with you, that you also will deal kindly with my father’s house, and give me a true sign;
Ano hoi, ke noi aku nei au ia olua, e hoohiki olua ia Iehova no'u, no ka'u hana lokomaikai ana'ku ia olua, e hana lokomaikai mai no hoi olua ia'u, a me ka poe o ko'u makuakane, a e haawi mai hoi olua i hoailona oiaio;
13 and that you will save alive my father, my mother, my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and will deliver our lives from death.”
A e hoola oukou i ko'u makuakane a me ko'u makuwahine, a me ko'u poe kaikunane, a me na kaikaina o'u a me ko lakou mea a pau, a e hoopakele mai ia makou i ka make.
14 The men said to her, “Our life for yours, if you don’t talk about this business of ours; and it shall be, when Yahweh gives us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with you.”
I mai la ua mau kanaka la ia ia, E lilo no ko maua ola no kou, ke hai ole oe i keia hana a maua. A i ka wa e haawi mai ai o Iehova i ka aina no makou, alaila, e hana lokomaikai aku maua ia oe, me ka oiaio.
15 Then she let them down by a cord through the window; for her house was on the side of the wall, and she lived on the wall.
Alaila, ma ke kaula oia i kuu iho ai ia laua ilalo, ma ka puka makani; no ka mea, aia kona hale maluna o ka pa, a noho no oia ma ka pa.
16 She said to them, “Go to the mountain, lest the pursuers find you. Hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers have returned. Afterward, you may go your way.”
I aku la ia ia laua, E hele olua i ka mauna, o loaa olua i ka poe hahai; a e pee malaila, i ekolu mau la, a hoi mai ka poe hahai; alaila, o hele olua i ko olua wahi e hele ai.
17 The men said to her, “We will be guiltless of this your oath which you’ve made us to swear.
I mai la ua mau kanaka la ia ia, Aole loa maua e lawehala i ka hoohiki ana a maua i hoohiki ai nou.
18 Behold, when we come into the land, tie this line of scarlet thread in the window which you used to let us down. Gather to yourself into the house your father, your mother, your brothers, and all your father’s household.
A hiki makou i keia aina, alaila, e hikii oe ma ka puka i keia kaula ulaula au i hookuu iho ai ia maua ilalo; a e hoakoakoa mai oe, ma kou hale, i kou makuakane a me kou makuwahine, a me kou poe kaikunane a me ka poe a pau o kou makuakane.
19 It shall be that whoever goes out of the doors of your house into the street, his blood will be on his head, and we will be guiltless. Whoever is with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand is on him.
A o ka mea puka mawaho o ka puka o kou hale ma ke alanui, aia no kona koko maluna o kona poo iho, a e hala ole maua; a o na mea ma ou nei, maloko o ka hale, eia no kona koko maluna o ko maua poo, ke kau ka lima maluna ona.
20 But if you talk about this business of ours, then we shall be guiltless of your oath which you’ve made us to swear.”
A ina e hai oe i keia hana a maua, alaila, aole maua e lawehala i ka hoohiki ana a maua i hoohiki ai nou.
21 She said, “Let it be as you have said.” She sent them away, and they departed. Then she tied the scarlet line in the window.
I aku la keia, E like me ka olua olelo, pela no. Kuu iho la oia ia laua, a hele aku la laua; a hikii iho la ia i ke kaula ula ma ka puka.
22 They went and came to the mountain, and stayed there three days, until the pursuers had returned. The pursuers sought them all along the way, but didn’t find them.
Hele aku la laua a hiki i ka mauna, a noho iho la ilaila i na la ekolu, a hoi mai ka poe hahai. Ua imi aku la ka poe hahai ia laua, ma ke ala a pau, aole hoi i loaa.
23 Then the two men returned, descended from the mountain, crossed the river, and came to Joshua the son of Nun. They told him all that had happened to them.
A hoi mai la ua mau kanaka la elua, e iho ana mai ka mauna mai, hele ae la laua, a hiki aku la io Iosua la, i ke keiki a Nuna, a hai aku la ia ia i na mea a pau i loaa ia lana:
24 They said to Joshua, “Truly Yahweh has delivered all the land into our hands. Moreover, all the inhabitants of the land melt away before us.”
Olelo aku la laua ia Iosua, Ua haawi io mai no o Iehova i ka aina a pau i ko kakou lima; no ka mea, ua maule hoi ka poe a pau e noho ana ma ia aina, no kakou.
