Joshua 6
1 Now Jericho was tightly shut up because of the children of Israel. No one went out, and no one came in.
Ƙofofin Yeriko kuwa a kulle suke ciki da waje saboda Isra’ilawa, ba mai fita babu kuma mai shiga.
2 The LORD said to Joshua, “Behold, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the mighty men of valor.
Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Duba, na ba ka nasara a kan Yeriko, duk da sarkinta da mayaƙanta.
3 All of your men of war shall march around the city, going around the city once. You shall do this six days.
Da kai da dukan sojoji, ku zaga birnin sau ɗaya kullum. Ku yi haka har kwana shida.
4 Seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark. On the seventh day, you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets.
Ka sa firistoci guda bakwai su riƙe ƙahoni raguna su kasance a gaban akwatin alkawari. A rana ta bakwai sai ku zaga birnin sau bakwai, firistocin suna busa ƙahoni.
5 It shall be that when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; then the city wall will fall down flat, and the people shall go up, every man straight in front of him.”
Sa’ad da kuka ji sun ɗauki dogon lokaci suna busa ƙaho, sai mutane gaba ɗaya su tā da murya su yi ihu da ƙarfi; katangar birnin kuwa za tă rushe, sai sojoji su haura, ko wanne yă nufi inda ya fuskanta kai tsaye.”
6 Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them, “Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the LORD’s ark.”
Yoshuwa ɗan Nun kuwa ya kira firistoci ya ce musu, “Ku ɗauki akwatin alkawari, ku sa firistoci guda bakwai su riƙe ƙahoni su kasance a gabansa.”
7 They said to the people, “Advance! March around the city, and let the armed men pass on before the LORD’s ark.”
Sai ya umarci jama’a ya ce, “Mu je zuwa! Ku zaga birnin, masu tsaro da makamai su shiga gaban akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji.”
8 It was so, that when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the LORD advanced and blew the trumpets, and the ark of the LORD’s covenant followed them.
Da Yoshuwa ya gama yin wa mutane magana, sai firistoci guda bakwai waɗanda suke riƙe da ƙahoni guda bakwai a gaban Ubangiji suka sha gaba suna busa ƙahoninsu, akwatin alkawari kuwa yana biye da su.
9 The armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets, and the ark went after them. The trumpets sounded as they went.
Masu tsaro da makamai kuma suna gaban firistoci waɗanda suke busa ƙahoni, masu tsaro daga baya kuma suna bin akwatin alkawari, ana ta busa ƙahoni.
10 Joshua commanded the people, saying, “You shall not shout nor let your voice be heard, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth until the day I tell you to shout. Then you shall shout.”
Amma Yoshuwa ya umarci mutane ya ce, “Kada ku yi kururuwar yaƙi, kada ku tā da murya, kada ku ce kome, sai ranar da na ce ku yi ihu, a sa’an nan ne sai ku yi ihu!”
11 So he caused the LORD’s ark to go around the city, circling it once. Then they came into the camp, and stayed in the camp.
Sai ya sa aka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji aka kewaye birnin da shi sau ɗaya, sa’an nan mutane suka dawo masauƙinsu suka kwana a can.
12 Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the LORD’s ark.
Kashegari, Yoshuwa ya tashi da sassafe, firistoci kuma suka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji.
13 The seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams’ horns in front of the LORD’s ark went on continually, and blew the trumpets. The armed men went in front of them. The rear guard came after the LORD’s ark. The trumpets sounded as they went.
Firistoci guda bakwai waɗanda suke riƙe da ƙahoni guda bakwai suka shiga gaba, suna takawa a gaban akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji suna kuma busa ƙahoni, masu tsaro ɗauke da makamai suna gabansu, sai masu tsaro da suke baya suna biye da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji.
14 The second day they marched around the city once, and returned into the camp. They did this six days.
A rana ta biyu suka sāke zaga birnin sau ɗaya, suka kuma koma masauƙinsu. Haka suka yi har kwana shida.
15 On the seventh day, they rose early at the dawning of the day, and marched around the city in the same way seven times. On this day only they marched around the city seven times.
A rana ta bakwai, suka tashi da sassafe suka zaga birnin sau bakwai yadda suka saba. A wannan rana kaɗai ne suka zaga birnin sau bakwai.
16 At the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, “Shout, for the LORD has given you the city!
A zagawa ta bakwai, da firistoci suka busa ƙahoni, sai Yoshuwa ya ba sojojin umarni ya ce, “Ku yi ihu, gama Ubangiji ya ba ku birnin!
17 The city shall be devoted, even it and all that is in it, to the LORD. Only Rahab the prostitute shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.
Birnin da dukan abin da yake cikinta za a miƙa su ga Ubangiji. Rahab karuwan nan kaɗai ce, da dukan waɗanda suke tare da ita a gidanta za a bari da rai domin ta ɓoye’yan leƙen asirin ƙasa da muka aika.
18 But as for you, only keep yourselves from what is devoted to destruction, lest when you have devoted it, you take of the devoted thing; so you would make the camp of Israel accursed and trouble it.
Amma, ba za ku ɗauki wani abin da za a hallaka ba, idan kuka yi haka, za ku jawo masifa da hallaka a kan mutanen Isra’ila a inda kuka sauka.
19 But all the silver, gold, and vessels of bronze and iron are holy to the LORD. They shall come into the LORD’s treasury.”
Dukan azurfa da zinariya, da kwanonin tagulla da na ƙarfe, keɓaɓɓu ne ga Ubangiji, dole a sa su cikin ma’ajin Ubangiji.”
20 So the people shouted and the priests blew the trumpets. When the people heard the sound of the trumpet, the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight in front of him, and they took the city.
Da aka busa ƙahoni, sojoji suka yi ihu, da jin ƙarar ƙahoni, mutane suka kuma yi ihu, sai katangar ta rushe; dukan mutanen kuwa suka shiga birnin kai tsaye, suka yi nasara a kanta.
21 They utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, both young and old, and ox, sheep, and donkey, with the edge of the sword.
Suka miƙa wa Ubangiji birnin, suka hallaka kowane abu mai ran da yake cikin birnin da takobi, maza da mata, yara da tsofaffi, shanu, tumaki da jakuna.
22 Joshua said to the two men who had spied out the land, “Go into the prostitute’s house, and bring the woman and all that she has out from there, as you swore to her.”
Yoshuwa ya ce wa mutanen nan biyu waɗanda suka je leƙen asirin ƙasar, “Ku shiga gidan karuwan nan ku fitar da ita da duk waɗanda suke nata bisa ga alkawarin da kuka yi mata.”
23 The young men who were spies went in, and brought out Rahab with her father, her mother, her brothers, and all that she had. They also brought out all of her relatives, and they set them outside of the camp of Israel.
Sai samarin waɗanda suka je leƙen asirin suka shiga suka fitar da Rahab, mahaifinta da mahaifiyarta, da’yan’uwanta da duk abin da yake nata. Suka fitar da iyalinta gaba ɗaya suka sa su a wani wuri, ba a cikin masauƙin Isra’ilawa ba.
24 They burned the city with fire, and all that was in it. Only they put the silver, the gold, and the vessels of bronze and of iron into the treasury of the LORD’s house.
Sa’an nan suka ƙona birnin tare da dukan abin da yake ciki tatas, amma suka sa azurfa da zinariya da kayan tagulla da na ƙarfe a cikin ma’aji na haikalin Ubangiji.
25 But Rahab the prostitute, her father’s household, and all that she had, Joshua saved alive. She lives in the middle of Israel to this day, because she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Amma Yoshuwa ya bar Rahab karuwan nan bai kashe ta ba, ita da iyalinta da duk abin da yake nata, domin ita ta ɓoye mutanen da Yoshuwa ya aika Yeriko don su leƙo asirin ƙasar kuma ta zauna tare da Isra’ilawa har wa yau.
26 Joshua commanded them with an oath at that time, saying, “Cursed is the man before the LORD who rises up and builds this city Jericho. With the loss of his firstborn he will lay its foundation, and with the loss of his youngest son he will set up its gates.”
A lokacin nan Yoshuwa ya yi wannan alkawari cewa, “Ubangiji zai tsine wa mutumin da zai yi ƙoƙarin sāke gina birnin nan, Yeriko. “A bakin ran ɗan farinsa zai kafa harsashin birnin; a bakin ran ɗan autansa kuma zai sa ƙofofin birnin.”
27 So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.
Ubangiji ya kasance tare da Yoshuwa, aka kuma san da shi a duk fāɗin ƙasar.
