¹And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard those things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,

¹ A ciya mo, kala Hazor bonkoono Yabin maa baaru. A binde donton Madon koyo Yobab gaa, da Simron koyo, da Aksaf koyo,

²And to the kings that were on the north of the mountains, and of the plains south of Chinneroth, and in the valley, and in the borders of Dor on the west,

² da azawa kambe haray bonkooney kaŋ yaŋ go tondi kuukey boŋ, da Gooru Beero ra kaŋ go Cinnerot se dandi kamba haray, da Safela ra, da Dor tudey ra wayna kaŋay haray,

³And to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and to the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the mountains, and to the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpeh.

³ da Kanaanancey waney kaŋ yaŋ go wayna funay da wayna kaŋay haray, da Amorancey, da Hittancey, da Perizancey, da Yebusancey kaŋ yaŋ go tondey ra, da Hibancey kaŋ yaŋ go Hermon cire Mizpe laabo ra din gaa.

⁴And they went out, they and all their hosts with them, much people, even as the sand that is upon the sea shore in multitude, with horses and chariots very many.

⁴ I fatta, ngey nda ngey kundey kulu, i boro boobo no, danga teeku me gaa taasi baayaŋ cine, da ngey bariyey da torko boobo.

⁵And when all these kings were met together, they came and pitched together at the waters of Merom, to fight against Israel.

⁵ koyey wo kulu no ka margu. I kaa ka zumbu nangu folloŋ Merom harey me gaa, zama ngey ma Israyla wongu.

⁶And the LORD said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.

⁶ Kala Rabbi ne Yasuwa se: «Ma si humbur'ey, zama suba mãsancine ay g'i kulu nooyandi buukoyaŋ Israyla jine. Ni m'i bariyey ce kaajey beeri-beeri, k'i torkey mo ton da danji.»

⁷So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.

⁷ Yasuwa nda soojey kulu kaŋ yaŋ go a banda kaa i gaa jirsi boŋ Merom harey me gaa ka kaŋ i boŋ.

⁸And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephothmaim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.

⁸ Rabbi n'i daŋ mo Israyla kambe ra. I n'i kar ka gaaray kala Zidon beero gaa, ka koy hala Misrefot-Mayim, da Mizpe gooro, wayna funay haray. I n'i kar kal i mana hay kulu cindi i se.

⁹And Joshua did unto them as the LORD bade him: he houghed their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.

⁹ Yasuwa te i se danga mate kaŋ cine Rabbi n'a lordi nd'a: a n'i bariyey ce kaajey beeri-beeri, a n'i torkey mo ton da danji.

¹⁰And Joshua at that time turned back, and took Hazor, and smote the king thereof with the sword: for Hazor beforetime was the head of all those kingdoms.

¹⁰ Waato din gaa no Yasuwa bare ka Hazor mo ŋwa. A n'a bonkoono kar da takuba, zama waato Hazor no ka bara mayrayey din kulu boŋ.

¹¹And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them: there was not any left to breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire.

¹¹ I na fundikooni kulu kaŋ go kwaara ra kar da takuba k'i halaci parkatak! I mana fundikooni kulu kaŋ ga fulanzam naŋ. A na Hazor mo ton da danji.

¹²And all the cities of those kings, and all the kings of them, did Joshua take, and smote them with the edge of the sword, and he utterly destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded.

¹² Koy woodin yaŋ birney, d'i koyey kulu, Yasuwa n'i ŋwa. A n'i kar da takuba, a n'i halaci parkatak! danga mate kaŋ cine Rabbi tamo Musa n'i lordi nd'a.

¹³But as for the cities that stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; that did Joshua burn.

¹³ Amma birney kaŋ yaŋ go ga sinji ngey tudey boŋ ciine ra, Israyla mana baa afo ton, kala Hazor hinne. Woodin wo kay, Yasuwa n'a ton.

¹⁴And all the spoil of these cities, and the cattle, the children of Israel took for a prey unto themselves; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, neither left they any to breathe.

¹⁴ Birney din, i arzakey kulu, d'i almaney, Israyla izey n'i gaay ngey boŋ se, danga i riiba nooya. Amma i na borey kulu kar da takuba k'i kulu halaci. I mana boro kulu kaŋ ga fulanzam naŋ.

¹⁵As the LORD commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Joshua, and so did Joshua; he left nothing undone of all that the LORD commanded Moses.

¹⁵ Danga mate kaŋ Rabbi na nga tamo Musa lordi nd'a, yaadin cine no Musa na Yasuwa lordi, yaadin cine no Yasuwa mo te. A mana hay kulu gazandi, hay kulu ra kaŋ Rabbi na Musa lordi nd'a.

¹⁶So Joshua took all that land, the hills, and all the south country, and all the land of Goshen, and the valley, and the plain, and the mountain of Israel, and the valley of the same;

¹⁶ Yaadin no Yasuwa na laabey kulu ŋwa d'a: tondey laabu, da Negeb* kulu da Gosen laabo kulu, da Safela kulu, da Gooru Beero, da Israyla wane tondey laabo, d'a tudey.

¹⁷Even from the mount Halak, that goeth up to Seir, even unto Baalgad in the valley of Lebanon under mount Hermon: and all their kings he took, and smote them, and slew them.

¹⁷ Za Halak tondo gaa, kaŋ ga ziji ka koy Seyir, ka koy Baal-Gad Liban gooro ra, Hermon tondo cire, a n'i koyey kulu ŋwa. A n'i kar ka wi mo.

¹⁸Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.

¹⁸ Yasuwa gay mo a goono ga koyey din wongu.

¹⁹There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, save the Hivites the inhabitants of Gibeon: all other they took in battle.

¹⁹ Birni si no kaŋ na amaana te da Israyla izey kala Hibancey hinne, ngey kaŋ yaŋ go Jibeyon da goray. Cindey kulu wongu no i n'i ŋwa d'a.

²⁰For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favor, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.

²⁰ Zama Rabbi no ka woodin miila, i m'i biney sandandi hal i ma konna Israyla k'a wongu, zama a m'i halaci parkatak! I ma si suuji ceeci, amma a m'i halaci, danga mate kaŋ cine Rabbi na Musa lordi nd'a.

²¹And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the Anakims from the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly with their cities.

²¹ Alwaato din no Yasuwa kaa ka Anakancey pati ka kaa tondey laabo, da Hebron da Debir, da Anab, da Yahuda tondey laabu kulu, da Israyla tondey laabu kulu ra. Yasuwa na ngey da ngey birney kulu halaci.

²²There was none of the Anakims left in the land of the children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.

²² I mana Anak boro baa afo naŋ Israyla izey laabo ra, kala Gaza hinne ra, da Gat, da Asdod: noodin yaŋ no afooyaŋ cindi.

²³So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD said unto Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance unto Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. And the land rested from war.

²³ Yaadin no Yasuwa na laabo kulu ŋwa d'a, mate kulu kaŋ Rabbi ci Musa se. Yasuwa n'a nooyandi tubu hari Israyla se, i kunda fayyaŋo boŋ. Waato din gaa no laabo du ka fulanzam da wongu.
