Iosua 8
1 OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Iosua, Mai makau oe, aole hoi e weliweli. E lawe pu oe i na kanaka kaua a pau me oe, a e ku iluna, a e pii aku ia Ai. E nana hoi, ua haawi aku au iloko o kou lima, i ke alii o Ai a me kona kanaka a me kona kulanakauhale, a me kona aina.
And the Lord said to Joshua, Fear not, nor be timorous: take with you all the men of war, and arise, go up to Gai; behold, I have given into your hands the king of Gai, and his land.
2 A e hana oe ia Ai, a me kona alii, me oe i hana'i ia Ieriko a me kona alii. Aka, o ko laila waiwai pio, a me ko laila bipi, e lawe ia mau mea i waiwai pio no oukou. E hoomoe oe i kou poe hoohalua ma ke kua o ua kulanakauhale la.
And you shall do to Gai, as you did to Jericho and its king; and you shall take to yourself the spoil of its cattle; set now for yourself an ambush for the city behind.
3 Ku ae la o Iosua a me na kanaka kaua a pau e pii aku i Ai. Wae mai la o Iosua i kanakolu tausani kanaka, he poe koa loa, a hoouna ia lakou i ka po.
And Joshua and all the men of war rose to go up to Gai; and Joshua chose out thirty thousand mighty men, and he sent them away by night.
4 Kauoha aku la oia ia lakou, i aku la, Aia hoi, e hoohalua oukou i kela kulanakauhale, ma ke kua o ke kulanakauhale, mai hele i kahi loihi e aku o ua kulanakauhale la, e noho makaukau hoi oukou a pau.
And he charged them, saying, Do you lie in ambush behind the city: do not go far from the city, and you shall all be ready.
5 A owau a me na kanaka a pau pu me au, e hookokoke aku makou i ke kulanakauhale; a hiki i ka wa e puka mai ai lakou iwaho, e hoouka e like me ka wa mamua, a e hee makou imua o lakou,
Land I and all with me will draw near to the city: and it shall come to pass when the inhabitants of Gai shall come forth to meet us, as before, that we will flee from before them.
6 (E puka mai no lakou iwaho, mahope o makou, ) a e kai mai no makou ia lakou, ma kahi loihi loa mai o ia kulanakauhale; no ka mea, e olelo auanei lakou, Ua hee lakou imua o kakou e like mamua; a e hee no makou imua o lakou.
And when they shall come out after us, we will draw them away from the city; and they will say, These men flee from before us, as also before.
7 Alaila, e ku mai oukou, mai kahi a oukou i hoohalua ai, a e lawe i ua kulanakauhale la. Ua haawi mai no o Iehova ia wahi iloko o ko oukou lima.
And you shall rise up out of the ambuscade, and go into the city.
8 A loaa ia oukou ua kulanakauhale la, alaila, e puhi i na hale i ke ahi. E like me ka olelo a Iehova, pela oukou e hana'i. E nana hoi, ua kauoha aku au ia oukou.
You shall do according to this word, behold! I have commanded you.
9 Alaila, hoouna aku la o Iosua ia lakou, a hele aku la lakou e hoohalua; a noho lakou mawaena o Betela a me Ai, ma ke komohana o Ai. Ia po, moe pu iho la o Iosua me na kanaka.
And Joshua sent them, and they went to lie in ambush; and they lay between Baethel and Gai, westward of Gai.
10 Ala mai la o Iosua i ke kakahiaka, a helu iho la i na kanaka, a pii aku la oia a me na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela, imua o na kanaka i Ai.
And Joshua rose up early in the morning, and numbered the people; and he went up, he and the elders before the people to Gai.
11 Pii pu aku la me ia kona poe a pau i makaukau i ke kaua, a neenee aku la, a hiki ma ke alo o ia kulanakauhale, a hoomoana iho la ma ka aoao akau o Ai. He awawa hoi mawaena o lakou a me Ai.
And all the men of war went up with him, and they went forward and came over against the city eastward.
12 Lawe ae la oia i elima paha tausani kanaka, a hoonoho iho la ia lakou e hoohalua mawaena o Betela a me Ai, ma ke komohana o ke kulanakauhale.
And the ambuscade [was] on the west side of the city.
13 Hoonoho iho la lakou i kanaka, o ka poe a pau, ma ka aoao akau o ke kulanakauhale, a me ka poe hope, ma ke komohana o ke kulanakauhale, alaila, i kela po no, iho aku la o Iosua ilalo o ke awawa.
14 A ike mai la ke alii o Ai, wikiwiki ae la lakou, a ala koke iho la, a puka mai la na kanaka o ke kulanakauhale iwaho e kaua me ka Iseraela, oia a me kona kanaka a pau, ma kahi i olelo mua ia, ma ke kula; aole hoi i ike he poe hoohalua kekahi, ma ke kua o ke kulanakauhale.
And it came to pass when the king of Gai saw [it], he hasted and went out to meet them direct to the battle, he and all the people [that were] with him: and he knew not that there was an ambuscade [formed] against him behind the city.
15 Hana iho la o Iosua a me ka Iseraela me he poe hee la imua o lakou, a holo aku la ma ke ala e hiki aku ai i ka waonahele.
And Joshua and Israel saw, and retreated from before them.
16 Hoakoakoa mai la na kanaka a pau o Ai e hahai ia lakou, a hahai no lakou ia Iosua, a kaiia'ku la lakou, mao aku o ke kulanakauhale.
And they pursued after the children of Israel, and they themselves went to a distance from the city.
17 Aole i koe kekahi kanaka ma Ai, a me Betela, i hahai ole aku i ka Iseraela. Waiho hamama wale lakou i ke kulanakauhale, a hahai aku la i ka Iseraela.
There was no one left in Gai who did not pursue after Israel; and they left the city open, and pursued after Israel.
18 I mai la o Iehova ia Iosua, E o aku oe i ka ihe ma kou lima ia Ai, a na'u no e haawi aku ia wahi iloko o kou lima. O aku la no o Iosua i kana ihe, ma kona lima i ke kulanakauhale.
And the Lord said to Joshua, Stretch forth your hand with the spear that is in your hand toward the city, for I have delivered it into your hands; and the liers in wait shall rise up quickly out of their place.
19 Ku koke mai la ka poe hoohalua, mai ko lakou wahi mai, a i ka o ana aku o kona lima, holo kiki aku la a komo iloko o ke kulanakauhale, hoopio iho la, a wikiwiki a puhi aku la i ke kanhale i ke ahi.
And Joshua stretched out his hand [and] his spear toward the city, and the ambuscade rose up quickly out of their place; and they came forth when he stretched out his hand; and they entered into the city, and took it; and they hasted and burnt the city with fire.
20 Alawa ae la na kanaka o Ai, a nana aku la mahope o lakou, aia hoi! punohu aku la i ka lani ka uwahi o ia kulanakauhale; aole o lakou wahi e pee aku ai, io, a io ae. A o ka poe e pee ana ma ka waonahele, huli mai la lakou e alo i ka poe hahai.
And when the inhabitants of Gai looked round behind them, then they saw the smoke going up out of the city to heaven, and they were no longer able to flee this way or that way.
21 A ike aku la o Iosua, a me ka Iseraela a pau, ua pio ke kulanakauhale i ka poe hoohalua, a ua punohu aku la ka uwahi o ke kulanakauhale, alaila huli hou lakou a luku aku la i kanaka no Ai.
And Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambuscade had taken the city, and that the smoke of the city went up to heaven; and they turned and struck the men of Gai.
22 A puka mai la hoi kela poe, mailoko mai o ke kulanakauhale, e alo ia lakou, nolaila ua puni lakou i ka Iseraela ma kela aoao kekahi poe a ma keia aoao kekahi poe. A luku aku la o Iosua ma ia lakou, aole i waiho aku i kekahi o lakou e holo a pakele aku.
And these came forth out of the city to meet them; and they were in the midst of the army, some [being] on this side, and some on that; and they struck them until there was not left of them one who survived and escaped.
23 A loaa ola ia lakou ke alii o Ai, a kai mai la lakou ia ia io Iosua la.
And they took the king of Gai alive, and brought him to Joshua.
24 A pau ae la na kanaka o Ai i ka lukuia e ka Iseraela ma ke kula, a ma ka waonahele, ma kahi a lakou i hahai aku ai. A haule iho la lakou a pau i ka maka o ka pahikaua a make. Alaila, hoi aku la ka Iseraela a pau i Ai, a luku aku la, me ka maka o ka pahikaua.
And when the children of Israel had ceased slaying all that were in Gai, and in the fields, and in the mountain on the descent, from whence they pursued them [even] to the end, then Joshua returned to Gai, and struck it with the edge of the sword.
25 A o ka poe a pau i haule ia la, o ua kane a me na wahine, he umikumamalua tausani o lakou, o na kanaka hoi a pau o Ai.
And they that fell in that day, men and women, were twelve thousand: [they killed] all the inhabitants of Gai.
26 Aole i hoihoi mai o Iosua i kona lima, ana i o aku ai me ka ihe, a pau na kanaka o Ai i ka lukuia e ia.
27 Aka o na holoholona, a me ka waiwai pio o ia kulanakauhale, oia ka Iseraela mea i lawe, i waiwai pio no lakou, e like me ka olelo a Iehova, ana i kauoha mai ai ia Iosua.
Beside the spoils that were in the city, all things which the children of Israel took as spoil for themselves according to the command of the Lord, as the Lord commanded Joshua.
28 Puhi iho la o Iosua ia Ai, a hoolilo iho la ia wahi i puu mau loa, i wahi olohelohe wale, a hiki mai i keia la.
And Joshua burnt the city with fire: he made it an uninhabited heap for ever, [even] to this day.
29 Kaawe no hoi ia i ke alii o Ai ma ka laau a hiki i ke ahiahi; a napoo ka la, kauoha ae la o Iosua e kuu i kona kupapau mailuna mai o ka laau, a e kiola ma ka ipuka e komo aku ai i ke kulanakauhale; a hoahu iho la lakou i ahu pohaku nui, a hiki mai i neia la.
And he hanged the king of Gai on a gallows; and he remained on the tree till evening: and when the sun went down, Joshua gave charge, and they took down his body from the tree, and cast it into a pit, and they set over him a heap of stones until this day.
30 Alaila, hana iho la o Iosua i kuahu no Iehova, no ke Akua o ka Iseraela, ma ka mauna ma Ebala,
Then Joshua built an altar to the Lord God of Israel in mount Gaebal,
31 E like me ka Mose, ke kauwa a Iehova i kauoha mai ai i na mamo a Iseraela, e like hoi me ka mea i palapalaia iloko o ka buke o ke kanawai o Mose, he kuahu pohaku i kalai ole ia; aole hoi i kauia ka hao maluna iho. Kaumaha aku la lakou maluna iho i na mohaikuni ia Iehova, a kalua iho la i na mohaihoomalu.
as Moses the servant of the Lord commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the law of Moses, an altar of unhewn stones, on which iron had not been lifted up; and he offered there whole burnt offerings to the Lord, and a peace-offering.
32 Palapala hou iho la ia malaila, ma na pohaku, i ke kanawai a Mose, ana i palapala ai imua i ke alo o na mamo a Iseraela.
And Joshua wrote upon the stones a copy of the law, even the law of Moses, before the children of Israel.
33 Ku mai la ka Iseraela a pau, a me na lunakahiko, a me na'lii, a me na lunakanawai o lakou, ma keia aoao a ma kela aoao o ka pahu, imua o ke alo o na kahuna o na mamo a Levi, ka poe i lawe i ka pahuberita o Iehova, o ka malihini a me ke keikipapa: o ka hapalua o lakou ma ke alo o ka mauna o Gerizima, a o ka hapalua ma ke alo o ka mauna o Ebala; e like me ke kauoha mua ana mai a Mose, ke kauwa a Iehova, e hoomaikai lakou i kanaka o ka Iseraela.
And all Israel, and their elders, and their judges, and their scribes, passed on one side and on the other before the ark; and the priests and the Levites took up the ark of the covenant of the Lord; and the stranger and the native were there, who were half of them near mount Garizin, and half near mount Gaebal, as Moses the servant of the Lord commanded at first, to bless the people.
34 A mahope iho, heluhelu iho la ia i ka olelo a pau o ke kanawai, o ka hoomaikai ana a me ka hoino ana, e like me na mea a pau i palapalaia ma ka buke o ke kanawai.
And afterwards Joshua read accordingly all the words of this law, the blessings and the curses, according to all things written in the law of Moses.
35 Aole i koe kekahi o na olelo a pau, a Mose i kauoha mai ai; ua pau i ka heluheluia e Iosua, imua o ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela, a me na wahine pu, a me na kamalii, a me na malihini, i hele pu me lakou.
There was not a word of all that Moses charged Joshua, which Joshua read not in the ears of all the assembly of the children of Israel, the men, and the women, and the children, and the strangers that joined themselves to Israel.
