yah sunakar hittee, aemoree, kananee, paarijjee, hivvee, aur yaboosee, jitane raja yaradan ke is par pahadee desh men aur neeche ke desh me, aur labanon ke samhane ke mahanagar ke tatt par rahate the,
2 ve aek man hokar yahoshoo aur israaeliyon se ladne ko ikatthe huae..
3 jab gibon ke nivaasiyon ne suna ki yahoshoo ne yareeho aur aee se kya kya kiya haai,
5 apane panvon men puranee ganttee hui jootiya, aur tan par purane vasr paahine, aur apane bhojan ke liye sookhee aur fafoondee lagee hui rottee le lee.
6 tab ve gilagal kee chhavanee men yahoshoo ke pas jakar us se aur israaelee purooshaen se kahane lage, ham door desh sen aae haain isaliye ab tum ham se vacha bandhae.
7 israaelee purooshaen ne un hivvaiyon se kaha, kya jane tum hamare madhy men hee rahate ho fir ham tum se vacha kaaise bandho?
8 unhon ne yahoshoo se kaha, ham tere das haain. tab yahoshoo ne un se kaha, tum kaun ho? aur kahan se aae ho?
9 unhon ne us se kaha, tere das bahut door ke desh se tere parameshvar yahova ka nam sunakar aae haain kyonaki ham ne yah sab suna haai, arthata usakee keerti aur jo kuchh us ne misr men kiya,
10 aur jo kuchh us ne aemoriyon ke donon rajaon se kiya jo yaradan ke us par rahate the, arthata heshbon ke raja seehon se, aur bashaan ke raja og se jo ashtarot men tha.
11 isaliye hamare yahan ke vraddhlogon ne aur hamare desh ke sab nivaasiyon ne ham se kaha, ki marga ke liye apane sath bhojanavastu lekar un se milane ko jao, aur un se kahana, ki ham tumhare das haain isaliye ab tum ham se vacha bandhae.
12 jis din ham tumhare pas chalane ko nikale us din to ham ne apane apane ghar se yah rottee garam aur tajee lee thee parantu ab dekho, yah sookh gai haai aur is men fafoondee lag gai haai.
13 fir ye jo madira ke kuppe ham ne bhr liye the, tab to naye the, parantu dekho ab ye fatt gaae haain aur hamare ye vasr aur jootiyan badee lambee yatra ke karan puranee ho gai haain.
14 tab un purooshaen ne yahova se bina salah liye unake bhojan men se kuchh grahan kiya.
15 tab yahoshoo ne un se mel karake un se yah vacha bandhae, ki tum ko jeevit chhodenge aur mandlee ke pradhaanon ne un se shapath khai.
16 aur unake sath vacha bandhane ke teen din ke bad unako yah samachar mila ki ve hamare pados ke rahanevale log haai, aur hamare hee madhy men base haain.
17 tab israaelee kooch karake teesare din unake nagaron ko jinake nam gibon, kapeera, berot, aur kiryatyareem haai pahunch gaa,
18 aur israaeliyon ne unako n mara, kyonaki mandlee ke pradhaanon ne unake sang israael ke parameshvar yahova kee shapath khai thee. tab saree mandlee ke log pradhaanon ke virooddh kudkudane lage.
19 tab sab pradhaanon ne saree mandlee se kaha, ham ne un se israael ke parameshvar yahova kee shapath khai haai, isaliye ab unako choo naheen sakate.
21 fir pradhaanon ne un se kaha, ve jeevit chhode jaaen. so pradhaanon ke is vachan ke anusar ve saree mandlee ke liye lakadhare aur panee bhranevale bane.
22 fir yahoshoo ne unako bulavakar kaha, tum to hamare hee beech men rahate ho, fir tum ne ham se yah kahakar kyon chhl kiya haai, ki ham tum se bahut door rahate haain?
23 isaliye ab tum shaapit ho, aur tum men se aeesa koi n rahega jo das, arthata mere parameshvar ke bhvan ke liye lakadhara aur panee bhranevala n ho.
24 unhon ne yahoshoo ko uttr diya, tere dason ko yah nishchay batalaya gaya tha, ki tere parameshvar yahova ne apane das moosa ko agyaa dee thee ki tum ko vah sara desh de, aur usake sare nivaasiyon ko tumhare samhane se sarvanash kare isaliye ham logon ko tumhare karan se apane praanon ke lale pad gaa, isaliye ham ne aeesa kam kiya .
25 aur ab ham tere vash men haai, jaaisa bartav tujhe bhla lage aur tteek jan pade, vaaisa hee vyavahar hamare sath kara.
26 tab us ne un se vaaisa hee kiya, aur unhen israaeliyon ke hath se aeesa bachaya, ki ve unhen ghaat karane n paae.
27 parantu yahoshoo ne usee din unako mandlee ke liye, aur jo sthan yahova chun le usamen usakee vedee ke liye, lakadhare aur panee bhranevale niyukt kar diya, jaaisa aj tak haai..
