¹Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.

¹Jeriho pa so zaprli in ostalo je zaprto zavoljo sinov Izraelovih: nihče ni šel ven in nihče noter.

²And the LORD said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valor.

²In GOSPOD reče Jozuetu: Poglej, dal sem ti v roko Jeriho in kralja in junaške može njegove.

³And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.

³Obkrožite torej mesto, vsi vojščaki, gredoč okoli mesta enkrat. Tako napravi šest dni,

⁴And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.

⁴in sedem duhovnikov naj nese pred skrinjo sedem jubilejskih [Kakršne so rabili v jubilejskem ali milostnem letu.] trobent; sedmi dan pa obkrožite mesto sedemkrat, in duhovniki naj trobijo na trobente.

⁵And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him.

⁵In kadar bodo zategnjeno trobili na jubilejsko trobento in zaslišite glas trobente, tedaj naj zavpije vse ljudstvo z močnim glasom: in mestno obzidje se podere na svojem kraju, in ljudstvo naj vstopi noter, vsak naravnost tja pred sabo.

⁶And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD.

⁶Nato pokliče Jozue, sin Nunov, duhovnike in jim reče: Vzdignite skrinjo zaveze, in sedem duhovnikov naj nese sedem jubilejskih trobent pred skrinjo GOSPODOVO.

⁷And he said unto the people, Pass on, and compass the city, and let him that is armed pass on before the ark of the LORD.

⁷Ljudstvu pa veli: Vstanite in pojdite okoli mesta, in oboroženci naj gredo pred skrinjo GOSPODOVO.

⁸And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns passed on before the LORD, and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.

⁸In zgodilo se je tako: ko naroči Jozue ljudstvu, gre naprej sedem duhovnikov, nesoč sedem jubilejskih trobent pred GOSPODOM, in trobijo s trobentami, in skrinja GOSPODOVA je šla za njimi.

⁹And the armed men went before the priests that blew with the trumpets, and the rearward came after the ark, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.

⁹In oboroženci gredo pred duhovniki, ki trobijo s trobentami, in zadnji voj gre za skrinjo, in neprestano trobijo s trobentami.

¹⁰And Joshua had commanded the people, saying, Ye shall not shout, nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall any word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I bid you shout; then shall ye shout.

¹⁰Jozue pa zapove ljudstvu in reče: Ne napravite bojnega krika, tudi naj se ne sliši glas vaš; še beseda naj ne pride iz vaših ust do dne, ko vam bom velel kričati; tedaj zaženite bojni krik!

¹¹So the ark of the LORD compassed the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.

¹¹Tako je šla skrinja GOSPODOVA okoli mesta enkrat; in prišli so zopet v tabor in ondi prenočili.

¹²And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the LORD.

¹²In Jozue vstane zjutraj zgodaj, in duhovniki neso skrinjo GOSPODOVO,

¹³And seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually, and blew with the trumpets: and the armed men went before them; but the rearward came after the ark of the LORD, the priests going on, and blowing with the trumpets.

¹³in sedem duhovnikov nese sedem trobent milostnega leta pred skrinjo GOSPODOVO in gredoč trobijo neprestano s trobentami, in oboroženci gredo pred njimi, zadnji voj pa gre za skrinjo GOSPODOVO, in neprestano trobijo.

¹⁴And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.

¹⁴Tako so drugi dan šli okoli mesta enkrat in se zopet vrnili v tabor. Enako so delali šest dni.

¹⁵And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.

¹⁵Ali sedmi dan, ob jutranjem svitu, vstanejo zgodaj in gredo po istem načinu okoli mesta sedemkrat; samo tisti dan so obkrožili mesto sedemkrat.

¹⁶And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city.

¹⁶In sedmi pot, ko duhovniki trobijo s trobentami, veli Jozue ljudstvu: Napravite bojni krik, zakaj GOSPOD vam je dal mesto.

¹⁷And the city shall be accursed, even it, and all that are therein, to the LORD: only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all that are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.

¹⁷Mesto pa in vse, kar je v njem, bodi v prokletje za GOSPODA; samo Rahabo nečistnico ohranite živo, njo in vse, ki so ž njo v hiši, zato ker je skrila sla, ki smo ju bili poslali.

¹⁸And ye, in any wise keep yourselves from the accursed thing, lest ye make yourselves accursed, when ye take of the accursed thing, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.

¹⁸Vi pa se varujte prokletega, da ne bi, ko ste ga naredili v prokletje, vzeli česa iz prokletega in bi spravili tabor Izraelov v prokletje in v nesrečo.

¹⁹But all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto the LORD: they shall come into the treasury of the LORD.

¹⁹Toda vse srebro in zlato in bronaste in železne posode so svete GOSPODU, pridejo naj v GOSPODOV zaklad.

²⁰So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

²⁰Tedaj je ljudstvo zagnalo bojni krik, in trobili so na trobente. In ko je ljudstvo čulo glas trobente in zagnalo močan bojni krik, se je podrlo obzidje na svojem kraju, in ljudstvo je stopilo gori v mesto, vsak naravnost pred sabo, in zavzeli so mesto.

²¹And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.

²¹In s prokletjem so uničili vse, kar je bilo v mestu, može in žene, mlade in stare, vole, ovce in osle, z ostrino meča.

²²But Joshua had said unto the two men that had spied out the country, Go into the harlot's house, and bring out thence the woman, and all that she hath, as ye sware unto her.

²²Jozue pa reče tistima dvema možema, ki sta ogledala deželo: Stopita v hišo tiste nečistnice in odpeljita odondod ženo z vsemi njenimi, kakor sta ji prisegla.

²³And the young men that were spies went in, and brought out Rahab, and her father, and her mother, and her brethren, and all that she had; and they brought out all her kindred, and left them without the camp of Israel.

²³In ta dva mladeniča, oglednika, gresta noter in odpeljeta Rahabo venkaj, tudi njenega očeta in mater in njene brate in vse, kar jih je imela, vse sorodništvo njeno peljeta na plano; in pusté jih zunaj Izraelovega taborišča.

²⁴And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD.

²⁴Mesto pa so sežgali z ognjem in vse, kar je bilo v njem; samo srebro in zlato in bronasto in železno posodo so deli v zakladnico hiše GOSPODOVE.

²⁵And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father's household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel even unto this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

²⁵A Rahabo nečistnico in njenega očeta rodbino in vse njene je Jozue ohranil v življenju; in prebivala je v Izraelu do današnjega dne, ker je bila skrila sla, ki ju je Jozue poslal ogledovat Jeriho.

²⁶And Joshua adjured them at that time, saying, Cursed be the man before the LORD, that riseth up and buildeth this city Jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn, and in his youngest son shall he set up the gates of it.

²⁶Tisti čas je prisegel Jozue in rekel: Proklet bodi pred GOSPODOM mož, ki vstane, da sezida to mesto Jeriho: ko mu položi podstavo, naj izgubi prvorojenca svojega, in ko mu postavi vrata, naj izgubi svojega najmlajšega!Tako je bil GOSPOD z Jozuetom, in glas o njem je šel po vsej zemlji.

²⁷So the LORD was with Joshua; and his fame was noised throughout all the country.

²⁷Tako je bil GOSPOD z Jozuetom, in glas o njem je šel po vsej zemlji.
