Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1And the Lord said to Josue: Fear not, nor be thou dismayed: take with thee all the multitude of fighting men, arise and go up to the town of Hai. Behold I have delivered into thy hand the king thereof, and the people, and the city, and the land.
1Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Nimet kom sangeng ku sensen. Fahla ac us mwet mweun lom nukewa utyak nu Ai. Nga fah oru tuh kom fah kutangla tokosra lun Ai ac nga fah usot facl sac ac ma nukewa we tuh in ma lowos.
2And thou shalt do to the city of Hai, and to the king thereof, as thou hast done to Jericho, and to the king thereof: but the spoils and all the cattle you shall take for a prey to yourselves: lay an ambush for the city behind it.
2Ma nukewa kom tuh oru in acn Jericho ac nu sin tokosra we kom in oru oapana in acn Ai ac nu sin tokosra we. Tusruktu, ma lalos nukewa wi kosro natulos kowos ku in eis lowos. Akola kowos in mweunelos in lukma, tukun siti ah yak.”
3And Josue arose, and all the army of the fighting men with him, to go up against Hai: and he sent thirty thousand chosen valiant men in the night,
3Ouinge Joshua ac mwet mweun lal elos akola in mweuni mwet Ai. El sulela tausin tolngoul mwet pisrla ke mweun ac supwalosla ke fong,
4And commanded them, saying: Lay an ambush behind the city: and go not very far from it: and be ye all ready.
4ac fahk nu selos, “Kowos som ac wikwik akngusrikya tukun siti ah, ac tupan pacl in mweun. Nimet som loesla liki siti ah.
5But I and the rest of the multitude which is with me; will approach on the contrary side against the city. And when they shall come out against us, we will flee, and turn our backs, as we did before:
5Nga ac mwet mweun lula uh ac fah kalukyang nu ke mutunpot in siti uh. Ke pacl se ma mwet Ai elos ac ilme in lain kut oana elos oru meet ah, na kut fah forla ac kaingkunulos.
6Till they pursuing us be drawn farther from the city: for they will think that we flee as before.
6Elos fah ukwe kut nwe ke na kut pwanulosla loes liki siti sac. Elos ac nunku mu kut kaingkunulos oana kut tuh kaingkunulos meet ah.
7And whilst we are fleeing, and they pursuing, you shall arise out of the ambush, and shall destroy the city: and the Lord your God will deliver it into our hands.
7Na kowos fah tuyak liki acn kowos wikwik we, ac utyak ac sruokya siti sac. LEUM GOD lowos el ac fah sot nu inpouwos.
8And when you shall have taken it, set it on fire, and you shall do all things so as I have commanded.
8Tukun kowos sruokya siti sac, kowos esukak, oana ke LEUM GOD El sapkin. Pa ingan sap ku kowos in fahsr kac.”
9And he sent them away, and they went on to the place of the ambush, and abode between Bethel and Hai, on the west side of the city of Hai. But Josue stayed that night in the midst of the people,
9Ouinge Joshua el supwalosla, ac elos som nu yen elos ac wikwik we inmasrlon acn Bethel ac Ai, layen roto in Ai. Ac Joshua el mutana in lohm sin mwet mweun in fong sac.
10And rising early in the morning, he mustered his soldiers, and went up with the ancients in the front of the army environed with the aid of the fighting men.
10Toang na ke lotu tok ah, Joshua el tukakek ac pangon mwet mweun ah nu sie. Na el ac mwet kol lun mwet Israel kololosla nu Ai.
11And when they were come, and were gone up over against the city, they stood on the north side of the city, between which and them there was a valley in the midst.
11Na mwet mweun ma welul ah elos kalukyang apkuran nu ke mutunpot lun siti sac ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos layen nu eir in Ai, ac oasr sie infahlfal inmasrlolos ac Ai.
12And he had chosen five thousand men, and set them to lie in ambush between Bethel and Hai, on the west side of the same city:
12El eis apkuran in mwet tausin limekosr ac sap elos in wikla inmasrlon Bethel ac Ai, layen roto in Ai.
13But all the rest of the army went in battle array on the north side, so that the last of that multitude reached to the west side of the city. So Josue went that night, and stood in the midst of the valley.
13Na mwet mweun elos akola nu ke mweun. Pusiyen mwet uh elos muta eir, ac mwet lula ah elos muta roto. Ac Joshua el mongla in fong sac infahlfal sac.
14And when the king of Hai saw this, he made haste in the morning, and went out with all the army of the city, and set it in battle array toward the desert, not knowing that there lay an ambush behind his back.
14Ke tokosra Ai el liye mwet mweun lal Joshua, el sa in mukuila. El ac mwet lal nukewa fahla suiya Infahlfal Jordan in mweuni mwet Israel, acn se na ma elos tuh mweun we meet ah. Ac el tia etu lah oasr pac mwet mweun akola in tuku tokolos ac lainulos.
15But Josue, and all Israel gave back, making as if they were afraid, and fleeing by the way of the wilderness.
15Joshua ac mwet mweun lal elos oru acnu mu elos kaingkunulos ac elos kaing nu yen mwesis.
16But they shouting together, and encouraging one another, pursued them. And when they were come from the city,
16Suliyuk mwet nukewa in siti sac in tuku ac ukwe mwet lal Joshua, ac ke elos ukwal Joshua, elos loeselik liki siti sac.
17And not one remained in the city of Hai and of Bethel, that did not pursue after Israel, leaving the towns open as they had rushed out,
17Mwet Ai nukewa elos som ukwe mwet Israel, ac mutunpot in siti sac ikakelik na ac wangin mwet lula in karingin.
18The Lord said to Josue: Lift up the shield that is in thy hand, towards the city of Hai, for I will deliver it to thee.
18Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Kolla osra soko inpoum an nu Ai, tuh nga ac sot siti sac nu sum.” Na Joshua el oru oana ke fwack nu sel.
19And when he had lifted up his shield towards the city, the ambush that lay hid, rose up immediately: and going to the city, took it and set it on fire.
19Ke pacl se na ma el kolla osra soko ah, na mwet ma wikwik likin siti ah elos sulaklak na tuyak ac kasrusr nu ke siti sac. Elos utyak sruokya siti sac ac esukak.
20And the men of the city, that pursued after Josue, looking back and seeing the smoke of the city rise up to heaven, had no more power to flee this way or that way: especially as they that had counterfeited flight, and were going toward the wilderness, turned back most valiantly against them that pursued.
20Ke mwet Ai elos tapulla elos liye lah fosryak siti ah. Tusruktu, wangin acn elos ku in kaingla nu we mweyen mwet Israel su kaing nu yen mwesis ah elos forla ac lainulos.
21So Josue and all Israel seeing that the city was taken, and that the smoke of the city rose up, returned and slew the men of Hai.
21Ke Joshua ac mwet lal ah liye lah mwet wialos ah eisla ac esukak siti sac, elos forla ac mutawauk in uni mwet Ai ah.
22And they also that had taken and set the city on fire, issuing out of the city to meet their own men, began to cut off the enemies who were surrounded by them. So that the enemies being cut off on both sides, not one of so great a multitude was saved.
22Na mwet Israel ma esukak siti sac elos tufoki ac wi mweuni mwet Ai. Elos raunelosla ac onelosla ac wangin sie selos moulla ku kaingla,
23And they took the king of the city of Hai alive, and brought him to Josue.
23sayen tokosra Ai. Sruhu el ac utukla nu yorol Joshua.
24So all being slain that had pursued after Israel in his flight to the wilderness, and tailing by the sword in the same place, the children of Israel returned and laid waste the city.
24Ke mwet Israel elos onela kewa mwet Ai ah yen mwesis ma elos ukwalosla nu we ah, na elos folokla nu in siti lun mwet Ai ac onela mwet nukewa ma lula we.
25And the number of them that fell that day, both of men and women, was twelve thousand persons all of the city of Hai.
25Pisen mwet Ai, mukul ac mutan, pa singoul luo tausin, ac elos nukewa anwuki in len sac.
26But Josue drew not back his hand, which he had stretched out on high, holding the shield, till all the inhabitants of Hai were slain.
26Joshua el kolla na osra soko inpaol ah nwe ke na mwet nukewa in Ai anwukla.
27And the children of Israel divided among them the cattle and the prey of the city, as the Lord had commanded Josue.
27Mwet Israel elos eis kosro ac ma nukewa lun mwet Ai tuh in ma lalos, in oana ke LEUM GOD El tuh fahk nu sel Joshua.
28And he burned the city, and made it a heap for ever:
28Ouinge Joshua el esukak acn Ai ac wanginla ma fac nwe misenge.
29And he hung the king thereof on a gibbet until the evening and the going down of the sun. Then Josue commanded, and they took down his carcass from the gibbet: and threw it in the very entrance of the city, heaping upon it a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day.
29Joshua el unilya tokosra lun acn Ai ac srupsrulak ke sak soko, na el sripsrip we nwe ke na ekela. Ke faht ah tili, Joshua el sap elos eisya manol ac sisya mutunpot in siti uh. Ac elos elosak yol in eot se nu facl, su oanna nwe misenge.
30Then Josue built an altar to the Lord the God of Israel in mount Hebal,
30Na Joshua el etoak sie loang Fineol Ebal nu sin LEUM GOD lun Israel.
31As Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded the children of Israel, and it is written in the book of the law of Moses: an altar of unhewn stones which iron had not touched: and he offered upon it holocausts to the Lord, and immolated victims of peace offerings.
31El orala oana Moses, mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD , el tuh sapkin nu sin mwet Israel. El oru fal nu ke lumah ma aketeyuki in book in Ma Sap lal Moses — “sie loang orekla ke eot ma tia akfwelyeyuk ke kutena osra.” Elos orekmakin loang se inge nu ke mwe kisa firir ac mwe kisa in akinsewowo lalos nu sin LEUM GOD .
32And he wrote upon stones the Deuteronomy of the law of Moses, which he had ordered before the children of Israel.
32Joshua el simusla ma sap fin eot ah ye mutun mwet nukewa, in oana ke Moses el tuh simusla meet ah.
33And all the people, and the ancients, and the princes and judges stood on both sides of the ark, before the priests that carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, both the stranger and he that was born among them, half of them by mount Garizim, and half by mount Hebal, as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded. And first he blessed the people of Israel.
33Mwet kol, mwet matu, mwet nununku, ac mwet Israel nukewa, wi mwetsac su muta inmasrlolos, elos takla tu sisken Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD . Tafu selos tu pe Fineol Gerizim ac tafu selos tu pe Fineol Ebal, ac ngetani nu yurin mwet tol Levi su us Tuptup sac inmasrlolos, oana ke Moses, mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD , el tuh sap elos in oru ke pacl in eis mwe insewowo.
34After this he read all the words of the blessing and the cursing and all things that were written in the hook of the law.
34Tukun ma inge Joshua el riteak nukewa kas in Ma Sap ah, kas in akinsewowo ac kas in selnga, oana ke simla in book in Ma Sap.
35He left out nothing of those things which Moses had commanded, but he repeated all before all the people of Israel, with the women and children and strangers that dwelt among them.
35Ma sap nukewa lal Moses Joshua el riteak nu sin mwet nukewa su tukeni ah, weang pacna mutan ac tulik ac mwetsac su muta inmasrlolos.
