< Joshua 7 >

1 But the children of Israel transgressed the commandment, and took to their own use of the anathema. For Achan the son of Charmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zare of the tribe of Juda, took something of the anathema: and the Lord was angry against the children of Israel.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará Israẹli ṣe àìṣòótọ́ nípa ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀, Akani ọmọ Karmi, ọmọ Sabdi, ọmọ Sera, ẹ̀yà Juda, mú nínú wọn. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìbínú Olúwa ru sí àwọn ará Israẹli.
2 And when Josue sent men from Jericho against Hai, which is beside Bethaven, on the east side of the town of Bethel, he said to them: Go up, and view the country: and they fulfilled his command, and viewed Hai.
Joṣua rán àwọn ọkùnrin láti Jeriko lọ sí Ai, tí ó súnmọ́ Beti-Afeni ní ìlà-oòrùn Beteli, ó sì sọ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ gòkè lọ kí ẹ sì ṣe ayọ́lẹ̀wò.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn arákùnrin náà lọ, wọ́n sì yọ́ Ai wò.
3 And returning they said to him: Let not all the people go up, but let two or three thousand men go and destroy the city: why should all the people be troubled in vain against enemies that are very few?
Nígbà tí wọ́n padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ Joṣua, wọ́n wí pé, “Kì í ṣe gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ni ó ni láti gòkè lọ bá Ai jà. Rán ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì tàbí ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta ọkùnrin láti gbà á, kí ó má ṣe dá gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ní agara, nítorí ìba ọkùnrin díẹ̀ ní ó wà níbẹ̀.”
4 There went up therefore three thousand fighting men: who immediately turned their backs,
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ní àwọn bí ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ta ọkùnrin lọ; ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin Ai lé wọn sá.
5 And were defeated by the men of the city of Hai, and there fell of them six and thirty men: and the enemies pursued them from the gate as far as Sabarim, and they slew them as they fled by the descent: and the heart of the people was struck with fear, and melted like water.
Àwọn ènìyàn Ai sì pa àwọn bí mẹ́rìndínlógójì nínú wọn. Wọ́n sì ń lépa àwọn ará Israẹli láti ibodè ìlú títí dé Ṣebarimu, wọ́n sì pa àwọn tí ń sọ̀kalẹ̀. Àyà àwọn ènìyàn náà sì já, ọkàn wọn sì pami.
6 But Josue rent his garments, and fell flat on the ground before the ark of the Lord until the evening, both he and all the ancients of Israel: and they put dust upon their heads.
Joṣua sì fa aṣọ rẹ̀ ya, ó sì dojúbolẹ̀ níwájú àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa títí di àṣálẹ́. Àwọn àgbà Israẹli sì ṣe bákan náà, wọ́n ku eruku sí orí wọn.
7 And Josue said: Alas, O Lord God, why wouldst thou bring this people over the river Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorrhite, and to destroy us? would God, we had stayed beyond the Jordan as we began.
Joṣua sì wí pé, “Háà, Olúwa Olódùmarè, nítorí kín ni ìwọ ṣe mú àwọn ènìyàn yìí kọjá Jordani, láti fi wọ́n lé àwọn ará Amori lọ́wọ́, láti pa wọn run? Àwa ìbá mọ̀ kí a dúró ní òdìkejì Jordani?
8 My Lord God, what shall I say, seeing Israel turning their backs to their enemies?
Olúwa, kín ni èmi yóò sọ nísinsin yìí tí Israẹli sì ti sá níwájú ọ̀tá a rẹ̀?
9 The Chanaanites, and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it, and being gathered together will surround us and cut off our name from the earth: and what wilt thou do to thy great name?
Àwọn Kenaani àti àwọn ènìyàn ìlú tí ó kù náà yóò gbọ́ èyí, wọn yóò sì yí wa ká, wọn yóò sì ké orúkọ wa kúrò ní ayé. Kí ni ìwọ ó ha ṣe fún orúkọ ńlá à rẹ?”
10 And the Lord said to Josue: Arise, why liest thou flat on the ground?
Olúwa sì sọ fún Joṣua pé, “Dìde! Kín ni ìwọ ń ṣe tí ó fi dojúbolẹ̀?
11 Israel hath sinned, and transgressed my covenant: and they have taken of the anathema, and have stolen and lied, and have hidden it among their goods.
Israẹli ti ṣẹ̀, wọ́n sì ti ba májẹ̀mú mi jẹ́, èyí tí mo pàṣẹ fún wọn pé kí wọn pamọ́. Wọ́n ti mú nínú ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀, wọ́n ti jí, wọ́n pa irọ́, wọ́n ti fi wọ́n sí ara ohun ìní wọn.
12 Neither can Israel stand before his enemies, but he shall flee from them: because he is defiled with the anathema. I will be no more with you, till you destroy him that is guilty of this wickedness.
Ìdí nì èyí tí àwọn ará Israẹli kò fi lè dúró níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá wọn; wọ́n yí ẹ̀yìn wọn padà, wọ́n sì sálọ níwájú ọ̀tá a wọn nítorí pé àwọn gan an ti di ẹni ìparun. Èmi kì yóò wà pẹ̀lú u yín mọ́, bí kò ṣe pé ẹ̀yin pa ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀ run kúrò ní àárín yín.
13 Arise, sanctify the people, and say to them: Be ye sanctified against tomorrow: for thus saith the Lord God of Israel: The anathema is in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thy enemies, till he be destroyed out of thee that is defiled with this wickedness.
“Lọ, ya àwọn ènìyàn náà sí mímọ́. Sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹ ya ara yín sí mímọ́ fún ọ̀la, nítorí báyìí ni Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli wí, ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀ kan ń bẹ ní àárín yín, Israẹli. Ẹ̀yin kì yóò lè dúró níwájú àwọn ọ̀tá a yín títí ẹ̀yin yóò fi mú kúrò.
14 And you shall come in the morning every one by your tribes: and what tribe soever the lot shall find, it shall come by its kindreds and the kindred by its houses, and the house by the men.
“‘Ní òwúrọ̀, kí ẹ mú ará yín wá síwájú ní ẹ̀yà kọ̀ọ̀kan. Ẹ̀yà tí Olúwa bá mú yóò wá sí iwájú ní agbo ilé kọ̀ọ̀kan, agbo ilé tí Olúwa bá mú yóò wá sí iwájú ní ìdílé kọ̀ọ̀kan, ìdílé tí Olúwa bá sì mú yóò wá sí iwájú ní ẹni kọ̀ọ̀kan.
15 And whosoever he be that shall be found guilty of this fact, he shall be burnt with fire with all his substance, because he hath transgressed the covenant of the Lord, and hath done wickedness in Israel.
Ẹnikẹ́ni tí a bá ká mọ́ pẹ̀lú ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀ náà, a ó fi iná pa á run, pẹ̀lú gbogbo ohun tí ó ní. Ó ti ba májẹ̀mú Olúwa jẹ́, ó sì ti ṣe nǹkan ìtìjú ní Israẹli!’”
16 Josue, therefore, when he rose in the morning, made Israel to come by their tribes, and the tribe of Juda was found,
Ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, Joṣua mú Israẹli wá síwájú ní ẹ̀yà kọ̀ọ̀kan, a sì mú ẹ̀yà Juda.
17 Which being brought by its families, it was found to be the family of Zare. Bringing that also by the houses, he found it to be Zabdi.
Àwọn agbo ilé e Juda wá sí iwájú, ó sì mú agbo ilé Sera. Ó sì mú agbo ilé Sera wá síwájú ní ìdílé kọ̀ọ̀kan, a sì mú ìdílé Sabdi.
18 And bringing his house man by man, he found Achan the son of Charmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zare of the tribe of Juda.
Joṣua sì mú ìdílé Simri wá síwájú ní ọkùnrin kọ̀ọ̀kan, a sì mú Akani ọmọ Karmi, ọmọ Sabdi, ọmọ Sera ti ẹ̀yà Juda.
19 And Josue said to Achan: My son, give glory to the Lord God of Israel, and confess, and tell me what thou hast done, hide it not.
Nígbà náà ní Joṣua sọ fún Akani pé, “Ọmọ mi fi ògo fún Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli, kí o sì fi ìyìn fún un. Sọ fún mi ohun tí ìwọ ti ṣe, má ṣe fi pamọ́ fún mi.”
20 And Achan answered Josue, and said to him: Indeed I have sinned against the Lord the God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done.
Akani sì dáhùn pé, “Òtítọ́ ni! Mo ti ṣẹ̀ sí Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli. Nǹkan tí mo ṣe nìyìí,
21 For I saw among the spoils a scarlet garment exceeding good, and two hundred sides of silver, and a golden rule of fifty sides: and I coveted them, and I took them away, and hid them in the ground is the midst of my tent, and the silver I covered with the earth that I dug up.
nígbà tí mo rí ẹ̀wù Babeli kan tí ó dára nínú ìkógun, àti igba ṣékélì fàdákà àti odindi wúrà olóṣùnwọ́n àádọ́ta ṣékélì, mo ṣe ojúkòkòrò wọn mo sì mú wọn. Mo fi wọ́n pamọ́ ní abẹ́ àgọ́ mi àti fàdákà ní abẹ́ rẹ̀.”
22 Josue therefore sent ministers: who running to his tent, found all hidden in the same place, together with the silver.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joṣua ran àwọn òjíṣẹ́, wọ́n sì sáré wọ inú àgọ́ náà, ó sì wà níbẹ̀, a sì fi pamọ́ nínú àgọ́ ọ rẹ̀, àti fàdákà ní abẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀.
23 And taking them away out of the tent, they brought them to Josue, and to all the children of Israel, and threw them down before the Lord.
Wọ́n sì mú àwọn nǹkan náà jáde láti inú àgọ́ rẹ̀, wọ́n mú wọn wá fún Joṣua àti gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, wọ́n sì fi wọ́n lélẹ̀ níwájú Olúwa.
24 Then Josue and all Israel with him took Achan the son of Zare, and the silver and the garments, and the golden rule, his sons also and his daughters, his oxen and asses and sheep, the tent also, and all the goods: and brought them to the valley of Achor:
Nígbà náà ni Joṣua pẹ̀lú gbogbo Israẹli, mú Akani ọmọ Sera, fàdákà, ẹ̀wù àti wúrà tí a dà, àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin àti obìnrin, màlúù rẹ̀, kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ àti àgùntàn àgọ́ rẹ̀ àti gbogbo ohun tí ó ni, wọ́n sì kó wọn lọ sí ibi àfonífojì Akori.
25 Where Josue said: Because thou hast troubled us, the Lord trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him: and all things that were his, were consumed with fire.
Joṣua sì wí pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ mú wàhálà yìí wá sí orí wa? Olúwa yóò mú ìpọ́njú wá sí orí ìwọ náà lónìí.” Nígbà náà ni gbogbo Israẹli sọ ọ́ ní òkúta pa, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n sọ àwọn tókù ní òkúta pa tán, wọ́n sì jó wọn níná.
26 And they gathered together upon him a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day. And the wrath of the Lord was turned away from them. And the name of that place was called the Valley of Achor, until this day.
Wọ́n sì kó òkìtì òkúta ńlá lé Akani lórí títí di òní yìí. Nígbà náà ní Olúwa sì yí ìbínú gbígbóná rẹ̀ padà. Nítorí náà ni a ṣe ń pe orúkọ ibẹ̀ ní àfonífojì Akori láti ìgbà náà.
