Ondjo yaAshan
1 Elombwelo lyOmuwa kutya Israel ina kutha nando osha muJeriko, inali gwanithwa. Omuntu gumwe edhina lye Ashan ina vulika kelombwelo ndika, onkee Omuwa okwa geele Aaisraeli (Ashan oyaKarmi, omutekulu gwaZabdi nogwomoludhi lwaSera gwomondhikwa yezimo lyaJuda.)
2 Josua okwa tumu aalumentu yamwe okuza kuJeriko ya yi kuAi, oshilando shi li kuuzilo waBetel, popepi naBetaven. Okwe ya lombwele, ya ka ndaadhe oshilongo shoka. Sho ye shi ningi, 3 oya hokololele Josua taa ti: “Itashi pumbiwa unene, aantu ayehe ya matukile Ai. Tuma ko owala shila aantu omayuvi gaali nge gatatu. Ino tuma etangakwiita alihe kolugodhi ndoka; oshilando kashi shi oshinene.” 4 Aaisraeli konyala omayuvi gatatu oye shi matukile, ihe oya dhengwa e taa shunithwa ko. 5 Aantu yomuAi oye ya tidha okuza komweelo gwoshilando, sigo okoshitapo shomamanya, e taa dhipaga po aalumentu omilongo ndatu nayahamano, sho ya kuluka koshikulundundu. Nena Aaisraeli oya tyololoka noya li ya tililila.
6 Josua naawiliki yaIsrael oya tuula oonguwo dhawo moluhodhi e tayi ihata pevi komeho goshikethahangano shOmuwa. Oko ya kala ya lala ndongo ongulohi noyi ifundile omavi komitse, ya holole oluhodhi. 7 Josua nokwa ti: “Omuwa Kalunga! Akwetu! Oshike we tu taagulukitha Jordan? Ou tu gandje nduno kAayamori? Oto tu hanagula po? Oshike inaatu kala ngaa handiyaka yaJordan? 8 Nena otandi ti ngiini, Omuwa, Israel sho a tidhwa kaatondi ye? 9 Aakaanana nokehe nee ngaa ngoka moshilongo ote ke shi uva. Otaa ke tu dhingilila e taa dhipaga shaa ngoka. Nena oto ka ninga shike, u popile esimano lyoye?”
10 Omuwa okwa ti kuJosua: “Thikama! Oshike wi iyekelahi ngawo pevi? 11 Aaisraeli oya yono! Oya teya euvaneno lyandje ndyoka nde ya lombwele, ye li dhiginine. Oya kutha iinima yimwe mbyoka ya tokolelwa efikwopo. Oye yi yaka, oya fundju e taye yi tula momaliko gawo. 12 Ndika olyo epuko lyAaisraeli, mboka itaa vulu we nokuli okukondjitha aatondi yawo. Otaye ya sindi, oshoka Aaisraeli oya geelwa nehanagulo. Itandi kala we nokuli nane, manga inaamu hanagula po iinima mbyoka mwa lombwelelwe, kaamu yi gume. 13 Thikama, yelitha oshigwana, u shi longekidhile okuholoka kungame. Ya lombwela, yi ilongekidhe ngula, oshoka ongame Omuwa Kalunga kaIsrael nda popi ndhika nda ti: ‘Israel, momaliko goye owa tula mo iinima nde yi ku lombwele, u yi yonagule po. Ito vulu okukondjitha aatondi yoye, manga inoo holola iinima mbika!’ 14 Ya lombwela kutya ngula naa holoke po omazimo nomazimo. Ezimo ndyoka tandi ke li ulika, olyo nali holoke montaneho, oludhi noludhi. Oludhi ndoka tandi lu ulike, nena nalu ye montaneho egumbo negumbo. Negumbo ndyoka tandi li ulike, nena nali ye montaneho omuntu nomuntu. 15 Ngoka nee tu ulikwa nota monika e na iinima yi indikwa, oye na fikwe po pamwe naangandjawo neliko lye alihe, oshoka okwe eta oshiponga nesithahoni muIsrael, sho a yono ehangano lyandje.”
16 Josua okwa meneka e ta gongele Aaisraeli ezimo nezimo, nezimo lyaJuda olya li lyu ulikwa. 17 Nena okwe eta po ezimo lyaJuda alihe oludhi noludhi, noludhi lwaSera olwa tothwa mo. Nena okwe eta po oludhi lwaSera egumbo negumbo, negumbo lyaZabdi olya tothwa mo. 18 Okwe eta po egumbo lyaZabdi omuntu nomuntu, naAshan yaKarmi, omutekulu gwaZabdi, okwa tothwa mo. 19 Josua okwa ti kuye: “Mumwandje, popya oshili koshipala shOmuwa, Kalunga kaIsrael, ihempulula. Lombwela ndje ngashingeyi shoka wa ninga. Ino kambadhala okuholeka ndje sha.”
20 Ashan okwa yamukula a ti: “Eeno, oshili, onda yono kOmuwa, Kalunga kaIsrael. Onda ningi ngeyi. 21 Mokati kiinima mbyoka twa hakana, onda mono ondjatha yOshibabiloni yo opala, ookilograma mbali dhoshisiliveli nuutale woshingoli wuudhigu wetata lyokilograma. Onde yi holeke e tandi yi kutha po. Onde yi fumvike motenda yandje, noshisiliveli shi li kohi.”
22 Josua okwa tumu aantu, ya matukile otenda noya mono iinima yi indikwa ya fumvikwa, noshisiliveli shi li kohi. 23 Oye yi kutha mo motenda noye yi fala kuJosua nAaisraeli ayehe noye yi tula koshipala shOmuwa. 24 Josua noshigwana ashihe shaIsrael oya kwata Ashan, oshisiliveli, ondjatha nuutale woshingoli pamwe naana yaAshan aamati naakadhona, iimuna, uusino noonzi, otenda ye neliko lye alihe; ayihe oye yi fala kEsilu lyomalwa. 25 Josua nokwa ti: “Omolwashike we tu etele uudhigu u thike mpaka? Omuwa nena ote ku undulile omupya.” Nena oshigwana ashihe osha dhipaga Ashan nomamanya, oye mu dhipaga e taa fike wo aangandjawo neliko lye alihe. 26 Oye mu ndumbile ondumba yomamanya onenenene, ndjoka oko yi li sigo onena. Omolwashoka ehala ndyoka ohali ithanwa sigo onena Esilu lyomalwa.
Nena Omuwa okwa geyuluka ihe.
Okunyona kwaAkan nokuhandukilwa kwaye
1 Ndelenee ovana vaIsrael ova nyona eaneno lavo mokukufa moinima ya tokolelwa ehanauno. Osheshi Akan yaKarmi yaSabdi yaSera womepata laJuda okwa kufa moinima ya tokolelwa ehanauno, onghee hano ehandu lOmwene la xwamena ovana vaIsrael.
2 Opo nee Josua okwa tuma ovalumenhu va dja kuJeriko va ye kuAi, shi li puBet-Aven koushilo waBetel, ndele ye okwa popya navo, ndele ta ti: “Indeni mu ka lave oshilongo.” Novalumenhu va ya ndele va lava Ai. 3 Vo eshi va aluka kuJosua, ove mu hokololela: “Oshiwana ashishe itashi pumbwa okuya ko, shapu ovalumenhu omayovi avali ile omayovi atatu otava dulu okuya, ndele tava ka ta Ai. Inamu monifa omatanga aeshe ovakwaita oixuna, osheshi venya ve li ko ovanini.” 4 Opo nee ovanhu kashiimba ve fike pomayovi atatu va ya ko. Ndelenee vo va li ve nokuya onhapo komesho yovalumenhu vaAi. 5 Novalumenhu vokuAi ova dipaa muvo ovalumenhu ngeno omilongo nhatu navahamano, ndele ve va shikula okudja koshivelo fiyo okuSebarim, ndele ve va taataa fiyo opefina lomhunda. Nomitima dovanhu da mbadapala ndele da talala. 6 Opo nee Josua okwa pombaula oikutu yaye nokwa wila eombe komesho yoshikefa shOmwene fiyo onguloshi ye novakulunhu vaIsrael, ndele ve lifundila edu komitwe. 7 Ndele Josua okwa tya: “Akutu Omwene, Kalunga, omolwashike wa taulukifa ovanhu ava Jordan, ove u tu yandje momake Ovaamori, opo va shiive oku tu mana po sheke? Ngeno twa tokolele tu kale langhele kombinga inya yaJordan! 8 Akutu Omwene, ame ohandi ti shike, Ovaisraeli eshi va pa ovatondadi vavo ombuda? 9 NOvakaanan noonakukalamo aveshe vomoshilongo ngeenge tave shi udu, otave tu dingilile ndele tava dimi po edina letu kombada yedu. Ove oto ka ninga shike omolwedina loye linene?”
10 Opo nee Omwene okwa lombwela Josua: “Fikama! Omolwashike wa wila eombe? 11 Israel okwa nyona ndele a tauluka ehangano lange, eli nde li ninga navo, ndele okwa kufa yo moinima ya tokolelwa ehanauno ndele a vaka ndele meholeko e i tula moinima yaye. 12 Novana vaIsrael itava dulu vali okulipopila moipafi yovatondadi vavo. Otave ke va faduka po, osheshi voovene ve lilongela ehanauno. Ame ihandi ka kala vali pamwe nanye, fimbo nye inamu kufa mo mokati keni eshi sha tokolelwa ehanauno. 13 Penduka! Yapula ovanhu u tye: ‘Liyapuleni ongula, osheshi Omwene Kalunga kaIsrael ta ti ngaha: Mokati keni, Israel, omu noinima ya tokolelwa ehanauno! Nye itamu dulu okulipopila moipafi yovatondadi veni fimbo inamu kufa po mokati keni oshinima sha tongolelwa ehanauno.’ 14 Ileni hano ongula inene pamapata eni. Nepata olo tali hoololwa kOmwene, li nokuuya pamaludi. Noludi tali hoololwa kOmwene, li nokuuya pamaumbo. Neumbo tali hoololwa kOmwene, li nokuuya ovalumenhu valo umwe naumwe. 15 Ndele ou a monika e noinima ya tongolelwa ehanauno, e nokuxwikwa po nomundilo, ye naaveshe ava ve li puye, osheshi ye okwa tauluka ehangano lOmwene nokwa ninga oshilonga shefifohoni muIsrael.” 16 Ndele Josua okwa meneka nOvaisraeli ve uya pamapata. Nepata laJuda la hoololwa. 17 Ye eshi a ongaleka omaludi Omujuda, oludi lOvasargi ola hoololwa. Ye eshi a ongaleka oludi lOvasargi ovalumenhu umwe naumwe, Sabdi a hoololwa. 18 Ye eshi a ongaleka eumbo laye umwe na umwe, Akan yaKarmi yaSabdi yaSera womepata laJuda a hoololwa. 19 Opo nee Josua okwa lombwela Akan ndele ta ti: “Omumwange, fimaneka Omwene Kalunga kaIsrael noku mu pa ehambelelo, ndele hepaululile nge eshi we shi ninga. Ino shi holeka nge.” 20 Opo nee Akan okwa nyamukula Josua ndele ta ti: “Oshili, ame nda nyona kOmwene Kalunga kaIsrael, nda ninga ngaha. 21 Onda mona moixuulwa oshikutu shiwa shokombada shokuSinear noshisiliveli shi fike peekilograma mbali; oingoldo i fike peegrama omafele atano; ame nde i haluka ndele nde i kufa, ndele tala, yo oi li metwali lange ya fudikwa medu noshisiliveli koshi.” 22 Josua a tuma ovatumwa ndele va ya ketwali, noinima oya li metwali laye ya fudikwa noshisiliveli koshi. 23 Ndele vo ve i kufa mo metwali ndele ve i twala kuJosua nokovana aveshe vaIsrael, ndele ve i tula koshipala shOmwene. 24 Opo nee Josua nOvaisraeli aveshe pamwe naye ova kufa Akan yaSera pamwe noshisiliveli noshikutu shokombada nokaila yoshingoldo novana vaye ovalumenhu noukadona neengobe daye neendongi daye needi daye netwali laye naashishe shaye ndele vo ve i twala kefilu laAkor. 25 Ndele Josua okwa tya: “Omolwashike we tu twala momupya! Omwene ote ke ku twala nena eli momupya?” Opo nee Ovaisraeli aveshe ve mu dipaa nomamanya ndele vo ove va xwika po nomundilo, ndele ve va kupula nomamanya. 26 Ndele vo ove mu ndubila onduba inene yomamanya ei i li po fiyo onena eli. Opo nee Omwene okwa handukuluka koupyuhandu waye. Onghee hano onhele inya otai ifanwa fiyo onena eli Efilu laAkor.
