约书亚记 6
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
World English Bible
1耶利哥 的城门因 以色列 人就关得严紧，无人出入。
1Now Jericho was tightly shut up because of the children of Israel. No one went out, and no one came in.
2耶和华晓谕 约书亚 说：「看哪，我已经把 耶利哥 和 耶利哥 的王，并大能的勇士，都交在你手中。
2The LORD said to Joshua, “Behold, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the mighty men of valor.
3你们的一切兵丁要围绕这城， 一日 围绕一次，六日都要这样行。
3All of your men of war shall march around the city, going around the city once. You shall do this six days.
4七个祭司要拿七个羊角走在 约 柜前。到第七日，你们要绕城七次，祭司也要吹角。
4Seven 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.
5他们吹的角声拖长，你们听见角声，众百姓要大声呼喊，城墙就必塌陷，各人都要往前直上。」
5It 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.”
6嫩 的儿子 约书亚 召了祭司来，吩咐他们说：「你们抬起约柜来，要有七个祭司拿七个羊角走在耶和华的 约 柜前」；
6Joshua 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.”
7又对百姓说：「你们前去绕城，带兵器的要走在耶和华的 约 柜前。」
7They said to the people, “Advance! March around the city, and let the armed men pass on before the LORD’s ark.”
8约书亚 对百姓说完了话，七个祭司拿七个羊角走在耶和华面前吹角；耶和华的约柜在他们后面跟随。
8It 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.
9带兵器的走在吹角的祭司前面，后队随着 约 柜行。 祭司 一面走一面吹。
9The armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets, and the ark went after them. The trumpets sounded as they went.
10约书亚 吩咐百姓说：「你们不可呼喊，不可出声，连一句话也不可出你们的口，等到我吩咐你们呼喊的日子，那时才可以呼喊。」
10Joshua 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.”
11这样，他使耶和华的 约 柜绕城，把城绕了一次；众人回到营里，就在营里住宿。
11So 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.
12约书亚 清早起来，祭司又抬起耶和华的 约 柜。
12Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the LORD’s ark.
13七个祭司拿七个羊角在耶和华的 约 柜前，时常行走吹角；带兵器的在他们前面走，后队随着耶和华的 约 柜行。 祭司 一面走一面吹。
13The 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.
14第二日，众人把城绕了一次，就回营里去。六日都是这样行。
14The second day they marched around the city once, and returned into the camp. They did this six days.
15第七日清早，黎明的时候，他们起来，照样绕城七次；惟独这日把城绕了七次。
15On 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.
16到了第七次，祭司吹角的时候， 约书亚 吩咐百姓说：「呼喊吧，因为耶和华已经把城交给你们了！
16At the seventh time, when the priests blew the trumpets, Joshua said to the people, “Shout, for the LORD has given you the city!
17这城和其中所有的都要在耶和华面前毁灭；只有妓女 喇合 与她家中所有的可以存活，因为她隐藏了我们所打发的使者。
17The 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.
18至于你们，务要谨慎，不可取那当灭的物，恐怕你们取了那当灭的物就连累 以色列 的全营，使全营受咒诅。
18But 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.
19惟有金子、银子，和铜铁的器皿都要归耶和华为圣，必入耶和华的库中。」
19But all the silver, gold, and vessels of bronze and iron are holy to the LORD. They shall come into the LORD’s treasury.”
20于是百姓呼喊， 祭司 也吹角。百姓听见角声，便大声呼喊，城墙就塌陷，百姓便上去进城，各人往前直上，将城夺取；
20So 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.
21又将城中所有的，不拘男女老少，牛羊和驴，都用刀杀尽。
21They 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.
22约书亚 吩咐窥探地的两个人说：「你们进那妓女的家，照着你们向她所起的誓，将那女人和她所有的都从那里带出来。」
22Joshua 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.”
23当探子的两个少年人就进去，将 喇合 与她的父母、弟兄，和她所有的，并她一切的亲眷，都带出来，安置在 以色列 的营外。
23The 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.
24众人就用火将城和其中所有的焚烧了；惟有金子、银子，和铜铁的器皿都放在耶和华殿的库中。
24They 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.
25约书亚 却把妓女 喇合 与她父家，并她所有的，都救活了；因为她隐藏了 约书亚 所打发窥探 耶利哥 的使者，她就住在 以色列 中，直到今日。
25But 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.
26当时， 约书亚 叫众人起誓说：「有兴起重修这 耶利哥 城的人，当在耶和华面前受咒诅。 他立根基的时候，必丧长子， 安门的时候，必丧幼子。」
26Joshua 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.”
27耶和华与 约书亚 同在， 约书亚 的声名传扬遍地。
27So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was in all the land.
