Yoshuwa 10
1 Adoni-Zedek sarkin Urushalima ya ji cewa Yoshuwa ya ci Ai da yaƙi ya kuma hallaka ta sarai, ya yi wa Ai da sarkinta abin da ya yi wa Yeriko da sarkinta, mutanen Gibeyon kuwa sun yi yarjejjeniya ta salama da Isra’ilawa, suna kuma zama kusa da su.
Now when Adoni-Zedek, king of Jerusalem, heard that Joshua had captured Ai and had completely destroyed it (just as he had done to Jericho and its king), he also heard how the people of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were living among them.
2 Shi da mutanensa suka ji tsoron wannan sosai, gama Gibeyon muhimmiyar birni ce, har ma kamar ɗaya daga cikin biranen sarauta, ya ma fi Ai girma, mazanta duka kuwa mayaƙa ne na ƙwarai.
The people of Jerusalem were very afraid because Gibeon was a large city, like one of the royal cities. It was larger than Ai, and all its men were mighty warriors.
3 Saboda haka sai Adoni-Zedek sarkin Urushalima ya roƙi Hoham sarkin Hebron, Firam sarkin Yarmut, Yafiya sarkin Lakish da Debir sarki Eglon ya ce,
So Adoni-Zedek, king of Jerusalem, sent a message to Hoham, king of Hebron, to Piram, king of Jarmuth, to Japhia, king of Lachish, and to Debir, king of Eglon:
4 “Ku zo ku taimake ni in kai wa Gibeyon hari. Domin sun yi yarjejjeniya ta salama da Yoshuwa da Isra’ilawa.”
“Come up to me and help me. Let us attack Gibeon because they have made peace with Joshua and with the people of Israel.”
5 Sai sarakunan nan biyar na Amoriyawa, sarakunan Urushalima, Hebron, Yarmut, Lakish da Eglon suka haɗa sojojinsu. Suka je dukansu suka yi shirin kai wa Gibeyon hari.
The five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon came up, they and all their armies. They set up their positions against Gibeon, and they attacked it.
6 Sai mutanen Gibeyon suka aika zuwa wurin Yoshuwa a sansani a Gilgal, “Kada ka juya wa bayinka baya, ka zo da sauri ka cece mu! Ka taimake mu domin sarakunan Amoriyawa duka daga kan tudu sun haɗa ƙarfinsu tare za su tasar mana.”
The people of Gibeon sent a message to Joshua and to the army at Gilgal. They said, “Hurry! Do not withdraw your hands from your servants. Come up to us quickly and save us. Help us, for all the kings of the Amorites who live in the hill country have gathered together to attack us.”
7 Saboda haka Yoshuwa ya tashi da rundunarsa duka, tare da dukan jarumawansa.
Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the men of war with him, and all the fighting men.
8 Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa, “Kada ka ji tsoronsu; na ba ka su a hannunka. Ba waninsu da zai iya tsayayya da kai.”
Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them. I have given them into your hand. Not one of them will be able to stop your attack.”
9 Bayan sun yi tafiya dukan dare daga Gilgal, Yoshuwa ya auko musu ba labari.
Joshua came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal.
10 Ubangiji ya sa suka ruɗe a gaban Isra’ilawa, Isra’ilawa kuwa suka yi babbar nasara a kansu a Gibeyon. Isra’ilawa suka fafare su a kan hanyar zuwa Bet-Horon suka karkashe su duka har zuwa Azeka da Makkeda.
Yahweh confused the enemy before Israel, and Israel killed them with a great slaughter at Gibeon and pursued them on the road going up to Beth Horon, and they killed them on the road to Azekah and Makkedah.
11 Suna guje wa Isra’ilawa suna gangarawa a kan hanyar Bet-Horon har zuwa Azeka, sai Ubangiji ya turo manyan duwatsu daga sararin sama suka karkashe su, waɗanda manyan duwatsun suka kashe sun fi waɗanda Isra’ilawa suka kashe da takobi.
As they ran away from Israel, down the hill from Beth Horon, Yahweh threw large stones down from heaven upon them all the way to Azekah, and they died. There were more who died because of the hailstones than who were killed with the sword by the men of Israel.
12 A ranar da Ubangiji ya ba da Amoriyawa a hannun Isra’ilawa, Yoshuwa ya ce wa Ubangiji a gaban Isra’ilawa, “Ke rana, ki tsaya cik a Gibeyon Kai wata, ka je Kwarin Aiyalon.”
Then Joshua spoke to Yahweh on the day Yahweh gave the men of Israel victory over the Amorites. This is what Joshua said to Yahweh before Israel, “Sun, be still at Gibeon, and moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.”
13 Sai rana ta tsaya cik, wata kuma ya tsaya, har sai da al’ummar ta ɗauki fansa a kan abokan gābanta, kamar yadda aka rubuta a cikin littafin Yashar. Rana ta tsaya a sararin sama, ba tă fāɗi ba har kusan yini guda.
The sun stood still, and the moon stopped moving until the nation took vengeance on their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the middle of the sky; it did not go down for about a whole day.
14 Ba a taɓa ganin abu haka ba ko dā can, ranar da Ubangiji ya saurari mutum. Ba shakka Ubangiji yana yaƙi domin Isra’ilawa.
There has been no other day like it before or after it, when Yahweh obeyed the voice of a human being. For Yahweh was waging war on behalf of Israel.
15 Sai Yoshuwa ya koma sansanin Gilgal tare da dukan Isra’ilawa.
Joshua and all Israel with him returned to the camp at Gilgal.
16 Sarakunan guda biyar suka gudu, suka ɓuya a cikin kogo a Makkeda.
Now the five kings had escaped and hidden themselves in the cave at Makkedah.
17 Lokacin da aka gaya wa Yoshuwa cewa an sami sarakunan nan biyar a ɓoye a cikin kogo a Makkeda.
It was told to Joshua, “They have been found!—the five kings hidden in the cave at Makkedah!”
18 Sai ya ce, “Ku mirgina manyan duwatsu ku rufe bakin kogon, sai ku sa waɗannan mutane su yi tsaron kogon.
Joshua said, “Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave and place soldiers there to guard them.
19 Amma kada ku tsaya a can! Ku fafari abokan gābanku, ku kai musu hari ta baya, kada ku bari su kai biranensu, gama Ubangiji Allahnku ya ba da su a hannunku.”
Do not stay yourselves. Pursue your enemies and attack them from the rear. Do not permit them to enter into their cities, because Yahweh your God has given them into your hand.”
20 Saboda haka Yoshuwa da Isra’ilawa suka hallaka su da yawa ƙwarai, amma’yan kaɗan ɗin da suka rage suka tsere zuwa cikin biranensu masu kāriya.
Joshua and the sons of Israel had finished slaughtering them with a very great slaughter, until they were almost completely destroyed; only a few survivors who escaped reached the fortified cities.
21 Dukan rundunar kuma suka dawo sansanin Makkeda tare da Yoshuwa, ba abin da ya same su. Ba wanda ya sāke tsokanar Isra’ilawa.
Then the whole army returned in peace to Joshua at the camp at Makkedah. No one dared to say one word against any of the people of Israel.
22 Yoshuwa ya ce, “Ku buɗe bakin kogon ku kawo mini sarakunan nan guda biyar.”
Then Joshua said, “Open the mouth of the cave and out of the cave bring to me these five kings.”
23 Sai suka kawo sarakunan biyar daga cikin kogo; sarakunan Urushalima, Hebron, Yarmut, Lakish da Eglon.
They did as he said. They brought to him these five kings from the cave—the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon.
24 Sa’ad da aka kawo sarakunan nan wurin Yoshuwa, ya kira dukan Isra’ilawa ya ce wa shugabannin rundunoni waɗanda suke tare da shi, “Ku zo nan ku taka wuyan sarakunan nan.” Sai suka zo suka taka wuyansu.
When they brought the kings to Joshua, he summoned every man of Israel. He said to the commanders of the soldiers who had gone into battle with him, “Put your feet on their necks.” So they came up and put their feet on their necks.
25 Yoshuwa ya ce musu, “Kada ku ji tsoro, ko kuwa ku razana, amma ku ƙarfafa, ku yi ƙarfin hali. Haka Ubangiji zai yi da duk abokan gāban da za ku yi yaƙi da su.”
Then he said to them, “Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed. Be strong and courageous. This is what Yahweh will do to all your enemies you are going to fight.”
26 Sai Yoshuwa ya karkashe waɗannan sarakuna guda biyar, ya kuma rataye kowannensu a bisa itace inda jikunansu suka kasance har yamma.
Then Joshua attacked and killed the kings. He hung them on five trees. They hung on the trees until evening.
27 Da yamma Yoshuwa ya ba da umarni a sauko da su daga itatuwan a jefa su cikin kogon da suka ɓuya. Aka sa manyan duwatsu aka rufe bakin kogon, suna a can har wa yau.
When it was sunset, Joshua gave orders, and they took them down from the trees and threw them into the cave where they had hidden themselves. They put large stones over the mouth of the cave. Those stones remain there to this very day.
28 A ranan nan Yoshuwa ya ci Makkeda da yaƙi. Ya karkashe mutanen tare da sarkinta. Bai bar wani da rai ba. Ya yi wa sarkin Makkeda yadda ya yi wa sarkin Yeriko.
In this way, Joshua captured Makkedah on that day and killed everyone there with the sword, including its king. He completely destroyed everyone in it. He left no survivor in it. He did to the king of Makkedah just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
29 Sai Yoshuwa da dukan Isra’ilawa suka tashi daga Makkeda zuwa Libna, suka kai mata hari.
Joshua and all Israel passed on from Makkedah to Libnah. He went into battle against Libnah.
30 Ubangiji kuma ya ba da ƙasar da sarkinta a hannun Yoshuwa. Yoshuwa ya karkashe kowa ya hallaka birnin, bai bar wani da rai ba. Ya kuma yi wa sarkin yadda ya yi wa sarkin Yeriko.
Yahweh also gave it into the hand of Israel—along with their king. Joshua struck it with the edge of the sword and every person in it. He left no survivor in it. He did to its king just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
31 Sai Yoshuwa da dukan Isra’ilawa suka tashi daga Libna zuwa Lakish; suka yi shiri suka kai mata hari.
Then Joshua and all Israel with him passed on from Libnah to Lachish. He camped by it and waged war against it.
32 Ubangiji ya ba da Lakish a hannun Isra’ilawa, a rana ta biyu kuwa Yoshuwa ya ci nasara a kansu. Ya karkashe duk mutanen birnin ya kuma hallaka birnin, kamar yadda ya yi a Libna.
Yahweh gave Lachish into the hand of Israel. Joshua captured it on the second day and struck it with the edge of the sword, and every person in it, just as he had done to Libnah.
33 Horam sarkin Gezer kuwa ya zo don yă taimaki Lakish, amma Yoshuwa ya haɗa duk da shi da rundunarsa ya ci su da yaƙi, har bai bar waninsu da rai ba.
Then Horam, king of Gezer, came up to help Lachish. Joshua attacked him and his army until there was not even one survivor left.
34 Yoshuwa kuwa da dukan Isra’ilawa suka tashi daga Lakish zuwa Eglon; suka yi shiri suka kai mata hari.
Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Lachish to Eglon. They camped by it and waged war against it,
35 A ranan nan suka ci ƙasar da yaƙi, suka buge ta, suka karkashe kowa da takobi kamar dai yadda suka yi a Lakish.
and captured it that same day. They struck it with the edge of the sword and they completely destroyed everyone in it, as Joshua had done to Lachish.
36 Sai Yoshuwa da dukan Isra’ilawa suka tashi daga Eglon zuwa Hebron suka kai hari a can.
Then Joshua and all Israel passed on from Eglon to Hebron. They waged war against it.
37 Suka ci birnin da yaƙi, suka karkashe mazaunanta, da sarkin, har da ƙauyukan, ba wanda ya tsira kamar yadda ya yi wa Eglon. Ya hallakar da ita sarai duk da kowane mutum da yake cikinta.
They captured it and struck it with the edge of the sword, and its king and its villages, and everyone in it. They left no survivor it, as they had done to Eglon, they totally destroyed it and every person in it.
38 Yoshuwa da Isra’ilawa duka suka juya suka kai wa Debir hari,
Then Joshua turned, and all the army of Israel with him, and they passed on to Debir and waged war against it.
39 suka hallaka birnin, da sarkinta da ƙauyukanta, suka karkashe dukan mazaunan wurin, ba su bar wani da rai ba. Suka yi wa Debir da sarkinta yadda suka yi wa Libna da sarkinta da kuma Hebron.
They captured it, its king and all its nearby villages. They struck them with the edge of the sword and completely destroyed every person in it. They left no survivor. They did to Debir and its king as they had done to Libnah and its king and to Hebron.
40 Yoshuwa ya cinye yankin duka da yaƙi, haɗe da na kan tudu, da Negeb, da kwarin yamma, da filayen cikin duwatsu tare da sarakunansu duka. Bai bar wani da rai ba, ya kashe duk wani mai numfashi, yadda Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ilawa ya umarta.
Joshua conquered all the land, the hill country, the Negev, the lowlands, and the foothills. Of all their kings he left not one survivor. He completely destroyed every living thing, just as Yahweh, the God of Israel, had commanded.
41 Yoshuwa ya ci su da yaƙi daga Kadesh Barneya zuwa Gaza, da kuma daga dukan yankin Goshen zuwa Gibeyon.
Joshua struck them from Kadesh Barnea to Gaza, and all the country of Goshen to Gibeon.

Joshua captured all these kings and their land at one time because Yahweh, the God of Israel, fought for Israel.

Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, returned to the camp at Gilgal.
