< Joshua 6 >

1 Wàyí o, a ti há Jeriko mọ́lé gágá nítorí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, ẹnikẹ́ni kò jáde, ẹnikẹ́ni kò sì wọlé.
Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
2 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí fún Joṣua pé, “Wò ó, mo ti fi Jeriko lé ọ lọ́wọ́ pẹ̀lú ọba rẹ̀ àti àwọn jagunjagun rẹ̀.
And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, [and] the mighty men of valour.
3 Ẹ wọ́de ogun yí ìlú náà ká lẹ́ẹ̀kan pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn jagunjagun. Ẹ ṣe èyí fún ọjọ́ mẹ́fà.
And ye shall compass the city, all [ye] men of war, [and] go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.
4 Jẹ́ kí àwọn àlùfáà méje gbé fèrè ìwo àgbò ní iwájú àpótí ẹ̀rí. Ní ọjọ́ keje, ẹ wọ́de ogun yí ìlú náà ká ní ìgbà méje, pẹ̀lú àwọn àlùfáà tí ń fọn fèrè.
And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams’ horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.
5 Nígbà tí ẹ bá gbọ́ ohùn fèrè náà, kí àwọn ènìyàn hó yèè ní igbe ńlá, nígbà náà ni odi ìlú náà yóò sì wó lulẹ̀, àwọn ènìyàn yóò sì lọ sí òkè, olúkúlùkù yóò sì wọ inú rẹ̀ lọ tààrà.”
And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long [blast] with the ram’s horn, [and] when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him.
6 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joṣua ọmọ Nuni pe àwọn àlùfáà ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa náà kí àwọn àlùfáà méje tí ó ru fèrè ìwo wà ní iwájú u rẹ̀.”
And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the LORD.
7 Ó sì pàṣẹ fún àwọn ènìyàn náà pé, “Ẹ lọ, kí ẹ sì yí ìlú náà ká pẹ̀lú àwọn olùṣọ́ tí ó hámọ́ra kọjá ní iwájú àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa.”
And he said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of the LORD.
8 Nígbà tí Joṣua ti bá àwọn ènìyàn sọ̀rọ̀ tán, àwọn àlùfáà méje tí wọ́n gbé fèrè méje ní iwájú Olúwa kọjá sí iwájú, wọ́n sì fọn fèrè wọn, àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa sì tẹ̀lé wọn.
And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams’ horns passed on before the LORD, and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.
9 Àwọn olùṣọ tí ó hámọ́ra sì lọ níwájú àwọn àlùfáà tí ń fọn fèrè, olùṣọ́ ẹ̀yìn sì tẹ̀lé àpótí ẹ̀rí náà. Ní gbogbo àsìkò yìí fèrè sì ń dún.
And the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets, and the rereward came after the ark, [the priests] going on, and blowing with the trumpets.
10 Ṣùgbọ́n Joṣua tí pàṣẹ fún àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ kígbe ogun, ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ gbé ohùn yín sókè, ẹ má ṣe sọ ọ̀rọ̀ kan títí ọjọ́ tí èmi yóò sọ fún un yín pé kí ẹ hó. Nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yin yóò sì hó!”
And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall [any] word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout.
11 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó mú kí àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa yí ìlú náà ká, ó sì yí i ká lẹ́ẹ̀kan. Nígbà náà ni àwọn ènìyàn náà padà sí ibùdó, wọ́n sì gbé ibẹ̀ fún alẹ́ náà.
So the ark of the LORD compassed the city, going about [it] once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
12 Joṣua sì dìde ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, àwọn àlùfáà sì gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa.
And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the LORD.
13 Àwọn àlùfáà méje tí ó gbé ìpè ìwo àgbò méje ń lọ níwájú àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa, wọ́n sì ń fọ́n àwọn ìpè: àwọn tí ó hámọ́ra ogun ń lọ níwájú u wọn; àwọn ọmọ tó wà lẹ́yìn sì ń tọ àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa lẹ́yìn, àwọn àlùfáà sì ń fọn ìpè bí wọ́n ti ń lọ.
And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually, and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; but the rereward came after the ark of the LORD, [the priests] going on, and blowing with the trumpets.
14 Ní ọjọ́ kejì, wọ́n yí ìlú náà ká lẹ́ẹ̀kan wọ́n sì padà sí ibùdó. Wọ́n sì ṣe èyí fún ọjọ́ mẹ́fà.
And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.
15 Ní ọjọ́ keje, wọ́n dìde ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ní àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́, wọ́n sì wọ́de ogun yí ìlú náà ká ní ìgbà méje, gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti ìṣáájú, ní ọjọ́ keje nìkan ṣoṣo ni wọ́n wọ́de ogun yí ìlú náà ká nígbà méje.
And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.
16 Ní ìgbà keje, nígbà tí àwọn àlùfáà fọn fèrè, Joṣua pàṣẹ fún àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Ẹ hó! Nítorí pé Olúwa ti fún un yín ní ìlú náà.
And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city.
17 Ìlú náà àti gbogbo ohun tí ó wà níbẹ̀ ni yóò jẹ́ ìyàsọ́tọ̀ fún Olúwa. Rahabu tí ó jẹ́ panṣágà nìkan àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà pẹ̀lú u rẹ̀ ni a ó dá sí; nítorí tí ó pa àwọn ayọ́lẹ̀wò tí á rán mọ́.
And the city shall be accursed, [even] it, and all that [are] therein, to the LORD: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that [are] with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
18 Ẹ pa ara yín mọ́ kúrò nínú ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀ fún ìparun, kí ẹ̀yin kí ó má ba à ṣojú kòkòrò nípa mímú nínú àwọn ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀. Bí kò ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ ẹ ó sọ ibùdó Israẹli di ìparun. Kí ẹ sì mú wàhálà wá sórí i rẹ̀.
And ye, in any wise keep [yourselves] from the accursed thing, lest ye make [yourselves] accursed, when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.
19 Gbogbo fàdákà àti wúrà àti ohun èlò idẹ àti irin jẹ́ mímọ́ fún Olúwa, wọ́n yóò wá sínú ìṣúra Olúwa.”
But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, [are] consecrated unto the LORD: they shall come into the treasury of the LORD.
20 Nígbà tí àwọn àlùfáà fọn ìpè, àwọn ènìyàn náà sì hó. Ó sì ṣe, bí àwọn ènìyàn ti gbọ́ ìró ìpè, tí àwọn ènìyàn sì hó ìhó ńlá, odi ìlú náà wó lulẹ̀ bẹẹrẹ; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni olúkúlùkù ya wọ inú ìlú náà lọ tààrà, wọ́n sì kó ìlú náà.
So the people shouted when [the priests] blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
21 Wọ́n ya ìlú náà sọ́tọ̀ fún Olúwa àti fún ìparun, wọ́n sì fi idà run gbogbo ohun alààyè ní ìlú náà—ọkùnrin àti obìnrin, ọ́mọdé, àti àgbà, màlúù, àgùntàn àti kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́.
And they utterly destroyed all that [was] in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.
22 Joṣua sì sọ fún àwọn ọkùnrin méjì tí wọ́n ti wá ṣe ayọ́lẹ̀wò ilẹ̀ náà pé, “Ẹ lọ sí ilé panṣágà nì, kí ẹ sì mu jáde àti gbogbo ohun tí í ṣe tirẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ tí búra fún un.”
But Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot’s house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye sware unto her.
23 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ní àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin tí ó lọ ṣe ayọ́lẹ̀wò wọlé lọ, wọ́n sì mú Rahabu jáde, baba rẹ̀, ìyá rẹ̀, àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ àti ohun gbogbo tí ó ní. Wọ́n sì mú gbogbo ìdílé rẹ̀ jáde, wọ́n sì fi wọ́n sí ibìkan ní ìta ibùdó àwọn ará Israẹli.
And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel.
24 Nígbà náà ni wọ́n sun gbogbo ìlú náà àti gbogbo ohun tí ó wà nínú u rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n fi fàdákà, wúrà ohun èlò idẹ àti irin sínú ìṣúra ilé Olúwa.
And they burnt the city with fire, and all that [was] therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD.
25 Ṣùgbọ́n Joṣua dá Rahabu panṣágà pẹ̀lú gbogbo ìdílé e rẹ̀ àti gbogbo ẹni tí í ṣe tirẹ̀ sí nítorí pé, ó pa àwọn ọkùnrin tí Joṣua rán gẹ́gẹ́ bí ayọ́lẹ̀wò sí Jeriko mọ́. Ó sì ń gbé láàrín ará Israẹli títí di òní yìí.
And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father’s household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel [even] unto this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
26 Ní àkókò náà Joṣua sì búra pé, “Ègún ni fún ẹni náà níwájú Olúwa tí yóò dìde, tí yóò sì tún ìlú Jeriko kọ́: “Pẹ̀lú ikú àkọ́bí ọmọ rẹ̀ ni yóò fi pilẹ̀ rẹ̀; ikú àbíkẹ́yìn rẹ̀ ní yóò fi gbé ìlẹ̀kùn bodè rẹ̀ ró.”
And Joshua adjured [them] at that time, saying, Cursed [be] the man before the LORD, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest [son] shall he set up the gates of it.
27 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú Joṣua; òkìkí rẹ̀ sì kàn ká gbogbo ilẹ̀ náà.
So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was [noised] throughout all the country.
