Yoshuwa 11
1 Sa’ad da Yabin sarkin Hazor ya ji wannan, sai ya aika saƙo zuwa wurin Yobab sarkin Madon, da sarkin Shimron, da Akshaf,
When Jabin, king of Hazor, heard about what happened, he sent a message to Jobab, king of Madon, to the kings of Shimron and Achshaph,
2 ya kuma aika zuwa ga sarakunan arewa waɗanda suke kan tuddai da kuma waɗanda suke cikin Araba a kudancin Kinneret da cikin filayen kwari, da cikin Nafot Dor a yamma;
and to the kings of the northern hill country, the Jordan Valley south of Kinnereth, the western foothills, and the foothills of Dor to the west,
3 ya kuma aika zuwa ga Kan’aniyawa a gabas da yamma; da kuma zuwa ga Amoriyawa, Hittiyawa da Ferizziyawa, da Yebusiyawa da suke kan tuddai; da kuma Hiwiyawa masu zama a gindin dutsen Hermon a yankin Mizfa.
to the kings of the Canaanites, both east and west, the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites in the hill country, and the Hivites living near Mount Hermon in the land of Mizpah.
4 Suka fito da dukan rundunansu da keken yaƙi masu yawan gaske, babbar runduna, yawansu ya yi kamar yashin bakin teku.
All their armies assembled together, a vast horde as numberless as the sand of the seashore, together with many, many horses and chariots.
5 Duk sarakunan nan suka haɗa mayaƙansu tare, suka kafa sansani a bakin Ruwayen Meron don su yi yaƙi da Isra’ilawa.
All these kings joined forces and set up camp beside the waters of Merom to fight against Israel.
6 Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Kada ka ji tsoronsu, domin war haka gobe zan ba da dukansu a hannun Isra’ilawa, za su kuwa karkashe su. Za ku gurgunta dawakansu, ku kuma ƙone keken yaƙinsu.”
The Lord said to Joshua, “Don't be afraid because of them, for by this time tomorrow I myself will hand them all over to Israel, dead. Cripple their horses and burn their chariots.”
7 Sai Yoshuwa da dukan mayaƙan suka auka musu a bakin Ruwayen Meron.
Joshua and the Israelite army went and attacked them without warning at the waters of Merom.
8 Ubangiji kuwa ya ba Isra’ilawa nasara a kan su, suka ci su da yaƙi, suka fafare su har zuwa Sidon Babba, zuwa Misrefot Mayim, har zuwa Kwarin Mizfa a gabas, ba wanda suka bari da rai.
The Lord handed them over to the Israelites who cut them down and chased them as far as Greater Sidon and Misrephoth Maim, and east to the valley of Mizpah, killing them until none were left.
9 Yoshuwa ya yi musu yadda Ubangiji ya umarta, ya gurgunta dawakansu, ya kuma ƙone keken yaƙinsu.
Afterwards Joshua did what the Lord had ordered: he crippled the horses and burned the chariots.
10 A lokacin nan Yoshuwa ya koma da baya ya ci Hazor da yaƙi, ya kuma kashe sarkinta da takobi. (Hazor ce babbar masarautan ƙasashen nan.)
Then Joshua turned on Hazor. He captured it and killed its king, for Hazor was at that time the chief of all these kingdoms.
11 Suka karkashe duk mazaunan ƙasar da takobi, ba su bar wani mai numfashi ba, suka kuma ƙona Hazor.
Joshua had all the inhabitants killed, leaving no survivors. He set it apart and completely destroyed it—no one was left alive. Then he burned down Hazor.
12 Yoshuwa ya ƙwace masarautun nan duka ya kuma kashe sarakunansu da takobi, ya hallakar da su ƙaƙaf kamar yadda Musa bawan Ubangiji ya umarta.
Joshua captured all these towns and killed their kings. He set them apart and completely destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the Lord had ordered.
13 Duk da haka Isra’ilawa ba su ƙone biranen da suke kan tuddai ba, sai Hazor kaɗai Yoshuwa ya ƙone.
However, Israel did not burn any of the towns built on mounds, except Hazor, which Joshua did burn.
14 Isra’ilawa suka kwashi ganima da dabbobi na waɗannan birane, amma suka karkashe mutanen duka da takobi, ba su bar wani mai numfashi ba.
The Israelites did take for themselves all the plunder and livestock from these towns. But they killed all the inhabitants, destroying them all so none were left alive.
15 Yadda Ubangiji ya umarci bawansa Musa, haka Musa ya umarci Yoshuwa, shi kuwa ya yi duk abin da Ubangiji ya umarci Musa.
As the Lord had instructed Moses, so Moses had instructed Joshua. Joshua did what he had been told—he did everything that the Lord had instructed Moses.
16 Saboda haka Yoshuwa ya cinye ƙasar duka da yaƙi, dukan Negeb, duka yankin Goshen, filayen kwari na yamma, Araba da tuddai na Isra’ila da kwarinta.
So Joshua conquered the whole land—the hill country, the Negev, all the land of Goshen, the western foothills, the Jordan Valley, the mountains of Israel, and the eastern foothills.
17 Daga Dutsen Halak wanda ya miƙe zuwa wajajen Seyir, zuwa Ba’al-Gad a Kwarin Lebanon ƙasa da Dutsen Hermon. Ya kama sarakunansu ya karkashe su.
This covered land from Mount Halak leading to Seir in the south, right up to Baal Gad in the north, below Mount Hermon in the valley of Lebanon. Joshua captured and killed all their kings.
18 Yoshuwa ya daɗe yana yaƙi da dukan waɗannan sarakuna.
Joshua fought a long war with all these kings.
19 Sai Hiwiyawa kaɗai waɗanda suke zama a Gibeyon, sauran ba ko birni ɗaya da ta yi yarjejjeniya ta salama da Isra’ilawa, Isra’ilawa kuwa suka ci dukansu da yaƙi.
Not a single town made peace with the Israelites except the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon. All the rest were conquered in battle.
20 Gama Ubangiji ne ya taurare zukatansu waɗannan sarakuna suka yi yaƙi da Isra’ilawa don yă hallaka su gaba ɗaya, yă gamar da su ba jinƙai, yadda Ubangiji ya umarci Musa.
For the Lord made them stubborn, wanting to fight the Israelites so that they might be set apart and completely destroyed, wiped out without mercy, as the Lord had instructed Moses.
21 A lokacin nan Yoshuwa ya je ya hallaka Anakawa daga ƙasar tudu. Daga Hebron, Debir da Anab. Daga dukan ƙasar tuddai na Yahuda, da kuma dukan ƙasar tudu ta Isra’ila, Yoshuwa ya hallaka su duka da garuruwansu.
During this time Joshua also annihilated the descendants of Anak living in the hill country of Hebron, Debir, and Anab, and all the hill country of Judah and Israel. Joshua set apart and completely destroyed their towns,
22 Ba a bar waɗansu Anakawa a harabar Isra’ila ba; sai dai a Gaza, Gat da Ashdod ne aka samu waɗanda suka ragu da rai.
and there were no descendants of Anak left in the land of Israel, only some in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod.
23 Yoshuwa kuwa ya ƙwace dukan ƙasar yadda Ubangiji ya umarci Musa, ya ba da ita ta zama ƙasar gādo ga Isra’ilawa, kabila-kabila. Ta haka ƙasar ta huta daga yaƙi.
So Joshua took the entire land in accordance with what the Lord had instructed Moses, giving it to Israel to own as it was divided up among the tribes. Then the land was at peace.
