Joshua 8 - Listen Online

¹ OLUWA si wi fun Joṣua pe, Má ṣe bẹ̀ru, bẹ̃ni ki àiya ki o má ṣe fò ọ: mú gbogbo awọn ọmọ-ogun pẹlu rẹ ki iwọ ki o si dide, ki o si gòke lọ si Ai: kiyesi i, emi ti fi ọba Ai, ati awọn enia rẹ̀, ati ilunla rẹ̀, ati ilẹ rẹ̀ lé ọ lọwọ:

¹ And the LORD said unto Joshua, Fear not, neither be thou dismayed: take all the people of war with thee, and arise, go up to Ai: see, I have given into thy hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land:

² Iwọ o si ṣe si Ai ati si ọba rẹ̀ gẹgẹ bi iwọ ti ṣe si Jeriko ati si ọba rẹ̀: kìki ikogun rẹ̀, ati ohun-ọ̀sin rẹ̀, li ẹnyin o mú ni ikogun fun ara nyin: rán enia lọ iba lẹhin ilu na.

² And thou shalt do to Ai and her king as thou didst unto Jericho and her king: only the spoil thereof, and the cattle thereof, shall ye take for a prey unto yourselves: lay thee an ambush for the city behind it.

³ Joṣua si dide, ati gbogbo awọn ọmọ-ogun, lati gòke lọ si Ai: Joṣua si yàn ẹgba mẹdogun, alagbara akọni, o si rán wọn lo li oru.

³ So Joshua arose, and all the people of war, to go up against Ai: and Joshua chose out thirty thousand mighty men of valour, and sent them away by night.

⁴ O si paṣẹ fun wọn pe, Wò o, ẹnyin o ba tì ilu na, ani lẹhin ilu na: ẹ má ṣe jìna pupọ̀ si ilu na, ṣugbọn ki gbogbo nyin ki o murasilẹ.

⁴ And he commanded them, saying, Behold, ye shall lie in wait against the city, even behind the city: go not very far from the city, but be ye all ready:

⁵ Ati emi, ati gbogbo awọn enia ti o wà pẹlu mi, yio sunmọ ilu na: yio si ṣe, nigbati nwọn ba jade si wa, gẹgẹ bi ti ìgba iṣaju, awa o si sá niwaju wọn;

⁵ And I, and all the people that are with me, will approach unto the city: and it shall come to pass, when they come out against us, as at the first, that we will flee before them,

⁶ Nitoriti nwọn o jade si wa, titi awa o fi fà wọn jade kuro ni ilu; nitoriti nwọn o wipe, Nwọn sá niwaju wa, gẹgẹ bi ti ìgba iṣaju; nitorina li awa o sá niwaju wọn:

⁶ (For they will come out after us) till we have drawn them from the city; for they will say, They flee before us, as at the first: therefore we will flee before them.

⁷ Nigbana li ẹnyin o dide ni buba, ẹnyin o si gbà ilu na: nitoriti OLUWA Ọlọrun nyin yio fi i lé nyin lọwọ.

⁷ Then ye shall rise up from the ambush, and seize upon the city: for the LORD your God will deliver it into your hand.

⁸ Yio si ṣe, nigbati ẹnyin ba gbà ilu na tán, ki ẹnyin ki o si tinabọ ilu na; gẹgẹ bi aṣẹ OLUWA ni ki ẹnyin ki o ṣe: wò o, mo ti fi aṣẹ fun nyin na.

⁸ And it shall be, when ye have taken the city, that ye shall set the city on fire: according to the commandment of the LORD shall ye do. See, I have commanded you.

⁹ Nitorina ni Joṣua ṣe rán wọn lọ: nwọn lọ iba, nwọn si joko li agbedemeji Beti-eli ati Ai, ni ìha ìwọ-õrùn Ai: ṣugbọn Joṣua dó li oru na lãrin awọn enia.

⁹ Joshua therefore sent them forth: and they went to lie in ambush, and abode between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of Ai: but Joshua lodged that night among the people.

¹⁰ Joṣua si dide ni kùtukutu owurọ̀, o si kà awọn enia, o si gòke lọ si Ai, on, ati awọn àgba Israeli niwaju awọn enia.

¹⁰ And Joshua rose up early in the morning, and numbered the people, and went up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people to Ai.

¹¹ Ati gbogbo awọn enia, ani awọn ọmọ-ogun ti mbẹ pẹlu rẹ̀, nwọn gòke lọ, nwọn si sunmọtosi, nwọn si wá siwaju ilu na, nwọn si dó ni ìha ariwa Ai; afonifoji si mbẹ li agbedemeji wọn ati Ai.

¹¹ And all the people, even the people of war that were with him, went up, and drew nigh, and came before the city, and pitched on the north side of Ai: now there was a valley between them and Ai.

¹² O si mú to bi ẹgbẹdọgbọ̀n enia, o si fi wọn si ibuba li agbedemeji Betieli ati Ai, ni ìha ìwọ-õrùn ilu na.

¹² And he took about five thousand men, and set them to lie in ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of the city.

¹³ Nwọn si yàn awọn enia si ipò, ani gbogbo ogun ti mbẹ ni ìha ariwa ilu na, ati awọn enia ti o ba ni ìha ìwọ-õrùn ilu na; Joṣua si lọ li oru na sãrin afonifoji na.

¹³ And when they had set the people, even all the host that was on the north of the city, and their liers in wait on the west of the city, Joshua went that night into the midst of the valley.

¹⁴ O si ṣe, nigbati ọba Ai ri i, nwọn yára nwọn si dide ni kùtukutu, awọn ọkunrin ilu na si jade si Israeli lati jagun, ati on ati gbogbo awọn enia rẹ̀, niwaju pẹtẹlẹ̀, ibi ti a ti yàn tẹlẹ; ṣugbọn on kò mọ̀ pe awọn ti o ba dè e mbẹ lẹhin ilu.

¹⁴ And it came to pass, when the king of Ai saw it, that they hasted and rose up early, and the men of the city went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at a time appointed, before the plain; but he wist not that there were liers in ambush against him behind the city.

¹⁵ Joṣua ati gbogbo awọn Israeli si ṣe bi ẹniti a lé niwaju wọn, nwọn si sá gbà ọ̀na aginjú.

¹⁵ And Joshua and all Israel made as if they were beaten before them, and fled by the way of the wilderness.

¹⁶ A si pe gbogbo enia ti mbẹ ni Ai jọ lati lepa wọn: nwọn si lepa Joṣua, a si fà wọn jade kuro ni ilu.

¹⁶ And all the people that were in Ai were called together to pursue after them: and they pursued after Joshua, and were drawn away from the city.

¹⁷ Kò si kù ọkunrin kan ni Ai tabi Beti-eli, ti kò jade tọ̀ Israeli: nwọn si fi ilú nla silẹ ni ṣíṣí nwọn si lepa Israeli.

¹⁷ And there was not a man left in Ai or Bethel, that went not out after Israel: and they left the city open, and pursued after Israel.

¹⁸ OLUWA si wi fun Joṣua pe, Nà ọ̀kọ ti mbẹ li ọwọ́ rẹ nì si Ai; nitoriti emi o fi i lé ọ lọwọ. Joṣua si nà ọ̀kọ na ti o ni li ọwọ́ rẹ̀ si ilu na.

¹⁸ And the LORD said unto Joshua, Stretch out the spear that is in thy hand toward Ai; for I will give it into thine hand. And Joshua stretched out the spear that he had in his hand toward the city.

¹⁹ Awọn ti o ba si dide kánkan kuro ni ipò wọn, bi o si ti nàwọ́ rẹ̀, nwọn sare, nwọn si wọ̀ ilu na lọ, nwọn si gbà a; nwọn si yára tinabọ ilu na.

¹⁹ And the ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand: and they entered into the city, and took it, and hasted and set the city on fire.

²⁰ Nigbati awọn ọkunrin Ai boju wo ẹhin wọn, kiyesi i, nwọn ri ẹ̃fi ilu na ngòke lọ si ọrun, nwọn kò si lí agbara lati gbà ihin tabi ọhún sálọ: awọn enia ti o sá lọ si aginjù si yipada si awọn ti nlepa.

²⁰ And when the men of Ai looked behind them, they saw, and, behold, the smoke of the city ascended up to heaven, and they had no power to flee this way or that way: and the people that fled to the wilderness turned back upon the pursuers.

²¹ Nigbati Joṣua ati gbogbo Israeli ri bi awọn ti o ba ti gbà ilu, ti ẹ̃fi ilu na si gòke, nwọn si yipada, nwọn si pa awọn ọkunrin Ai.

²¹ And when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city, and that the smoke of the city ascended, then they turned again, and slew the men of Ai.

²² Awọn ti ara keji si yọ si wọn lati ilu na wá; bẹ̃ni nwọn wà li agbedemeji Israeli, awọn miran li apa ihin, awọn miran li apa ọhún: nwọn si pa wọn, bẹ̃ni nwọn kò si jẹ ki ọkan ki o kù tabi ki o sálọ ninu wọn.

²² And the other issued out of the city against them; so they were in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side: and they smote them, so that they let none of them remain or escape.

²³ Nwọn si mú ọba Ai lãye, nwọn si mú u wá sọdọ Joṣua.

²³ And the king of Ai they took alive, and brought him to Joshua.

²⁴ O si ṣe, nigbati Israeli pari pipa gbogbo awọn ara ilu Ai ni igbẹ́, ati ni aginjù ni ibi ti nwọn lé wọn si, ti gbogbo wọn si ti oju idà ṣubu, titi a fi run wọn, ni gbogbo awọn ọmọ Israeli pada si Ai, nwọn si fi oju idà kọlù u.

²⁴ And it came to pass, when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness wherein they chased them, and when they were all fallen on the edge of the sword, until they were consumed, that all the Israelites returned unto Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword.

²⁵ O si ṣe, gbogbo awọn ti o ṣubu ni ijọ́ na, ati ọkunrin ati obinrin, jẹ́ ẹgba mẹfa, ani gbogbo ọkunrin Ai.

²⁵ And so it was, that all that fell that day, both of men and women, were twelve thousand, even all the men of Ai.

²⁶ Nitoriti Joṣua kò fà ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ti o fi nà ọ̀kọ sẹhin, titi o fi run gbogbo awọn ara ilu Ai tútu.

²⁶ For Joshua drew not his hand back, wherewith he stretched out the spear, until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai.

²⁷ Kìki ohun-ọ̀sin ati ikogun ilu na ni Israeli kó fun ara wọn, gẹgẹ bi ọ̀rọ OLUWA ti o palaṣẹ fun Joṣua.

²⁷ Only the cattle and the spoil of that city Israel took for a prey unto themselves, according unto the word of the LORD which he commanded Joshua.

²⁸ Joṣua si kun Ai, o sọ ọ di òkiti lailai, ani ahoro titi di oni-oloni.

²⁸ And Joshua burnt Ai, and made it an heap for ever, even a desolation unto this day.

²⁹ Ọba Ai li o si so rọ̀ lori igi titi di aṣalẹ: bi õrùn si ti wọ̀, Joṣua paṣẹ ki a sọ okú rẹ̀ kuro lori igi kalẹ, ki a si wọ́ ọ jù si atiwọ̀ ibode ilu na, ki a si kó òkiti nla okuta lé e lori, ti mbẹ nibẹ̀ titi di oni-oloni.

²⁹ And the king of Ai he hanged on a tree until eventide: and as soon as the sun was down, Joshua commanded that they should take his carcase down from the tree, and cast it at the entering of the gate of the city, and raise thereon a great heap of stones, that remaineth unto this day.

³⁰ Nigbana ni Joṣua tẹ́ pẹpẹ kan fun OLUWA, Ọlọrun Israeli, li òke Ebali,

³⁰ Then Joshua built an altar unto the LORD God of Israel in mount Ebal,

³¹ Gẹgẹ bi Mose iranṣẹ OLUWA ti paṣẹ fun awọn ọmọ Israeli, gẹgẹ bi a ti kọ ọ ninu iwé ofin Mose, pẹpẹ odidi okuta, lara eyiti ẹnikan kò fi irin kan: nwọn si ru ẹbọ sisun lori rẹ̀ si OLUWA, nwọn si ru ẹbọ alafia.

³¹ As Moses the servant of the LORD commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, an altar of whole stones, over which no man hath lift up any iron: and they offered thereon burnt offerings unto the LORD, and sacrificed peace offerings.

³² O si kọ apẹrẹ ofin Mose sara okuta na, ti o kọ niwaju awọn ọmọ Israeli.

³² And he wrote there upon the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he wrote in the presence of the children of Israel.

³³ Ati gbogbo Israeli, ati awọn àgba wọn, ati awọn olori, ati awọn onidajọ wọn, duro li apa ihin ati li apa ọhún apoti ẹrí niwaju awọn alufa awọn ọmọ Lefi, ti o rù apoti majẹmu OLUWA, ati alejò ati ibilẹ; àbọ wọn kọjusi òke Gerisimu; ati àbọ wọn kọjusi òke Ebali, gẹgẹ bi Mose iranṣẹ OLUWA ti paṣẹ rí, pe ki nwọn ki o sure fun awọn enia Israeli.

³³ And all Israel, and their elders, and officers, and their judges, stood on this side the ark and on that side before the priests the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, as well the stranger, as he that was born among them; half of them over against mount Gerizim, and half of them over against mount Ebal; as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded before, that they should bless the people of Israel.

³⁴ Lẹhin eyi o si kà gbogbo ọ̀rọ ofin, ibukún ati egún, gẹgẹ bi gbogbo eyiti a kọ ninu iwé ofin.

³⁴ And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings and cursings, according to all that is written in the book of the law.

³⁵ Kò kù ọ̀rọ kan ninu gbogbo eyiti Mose palaṣẹ, ti Joṣua kò kà niwaju gbogbo ijọ Israeli, ati awọn obinrin, ati awọn ọmọ wẹrẹ, ati awọn alejò ti nrìn lãrin wọn.

³⁵ There was not a word of all that Moses commanded, which Joshua read not before all the congregation of Israel, with the women, and the little ones, and the strangers that were conversant among them.
