Enti yɛn Agya abufuw dɛw tiaa Israel. ^a a v1 Sɛ wɔahyira biribi so ama ɔsɛe a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn na ɔfa no nyinaa, na obiara nni ho kwan sɛ ɔde ne fa bi sie ma ne ho. ²Yosua somaa mmarima fi Yeriko kɔɔ Ai a ɛbɛn Bet-Awen wɔ Betel apuei fam no, ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Monforo nkɔhwehwɛ asase no mu.” Wɔforoe kɔhwehwɛɛ Ai mu.

³Wɔsan baa Yosua nkyɛn bɛka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ɛnhia sɛ obiara foro kɔ. Soma mmarima bɛyɛ mpem abien anaa mpem abiɛsa na wɔnkɔ ntow nhyɛ Ai so; mma nnipa no nyinaa mmrɛ kwa, efisɛ wɔn dodow sua.” ⁴Enti nnipa no mu bɛyɛ mpem abiɛsa foro kɔe, nanso wɔdwane fii Ai mmarima no anim. ⁵Ai mmarima no kunkum wɔn mu bɛyɛ aduasa asia, taa wɔn fi kurow pon ano kosii abotwabea hɔ, na wokunkum wɔn wɔ siane no so. Nnipa no koma bubui, na ɛdan nsu. ⁶Yosua sunsuan ne ntade mu, na ɔne Israel mpanyimfo no de wɔn anim butuw fam wɔ yɛn Agya adaka no anim kosii anwummere, na wɔtoo mfutuma guu wɔn ti so. ⁷Yosua kae se, “Ao, Agya Otumfo, adɛn nti na wode nnipa yi twaa Yordan, sɛ wode yɛn bɛhyɛ Amorifo nsa na wɔasɛe yɛn? Sɛ anka yɛpenee so tenaa Yordan agya hɔ a, anka eye! ⁸Mesrɛ wo, Agya Otumfo, dɛn na metumi aka, afei a Israel adan wɔn akyi adwane afi wɔn atamfo anim yi? ⁹Kanaanfo ne wɔn a wɔte asase no so nyinaa bɛte, na wɔbɛtwa yɛn ho ahyia, na wɔapepa yɛn din afi asase so. Ɛno de, dɛn na wobɛyɛ ama wo din kɛse no?”

¹⁰Yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ Yosua se, “Sɔre! Adɛn nti na woakɔtow wʼanim ase saa?

¹¹“Israel ayɛ bɔne, na wɔabu mʼapam a mehyɛɛ wɔn no so. Wɔafa nneɛma a wɔahyira so no bi, wɔawia, wɔadi atoro, na wɔde ahyɛ wɔn ankasa nneɛma mu. ¹²Enti Israel ntumi nnyina wɔn atamfo anim; wɔdan wɔn akyi wɔ wɔn anim, efisɛ afei wɔn ankasa ayɛ nneɛma a wɔahyira so ama ɔsɛe. Meremfra mo bio, gye sɛ mosɛe nneɛma a wɔahyira so ama ɔsɛe a ɛwɔ mo mu no. ¹³Sɔre! Tew nnipa no ho. Ka kyerɛ wɔn se: Muntew mo ho mma ɔkyena, efisɛ yɛn Agya, Israel Nyankopɔn, se: Israel, nneɛma a wɔahyira so wɔ mo mu. Morentumi nnyina mo atamfo anim kosi sɛ mobɛyi nneɛma no afi mo mu.

¹⁴“Anɔpa no, momfa mo ho mma abusuakuw abusuakuw. Abusuakuw a yɛn Agya bɛyi no bɛba anim abusua abusua; abusua a ɔbɛyi no bɛba anim efi efi; efi a ɔbɛyi no bɛba anim ɔbarima biako biako. ¹⁵Obiara a wɔbɛkyere no ne nneɛma a wɔahyira so no, wɔde ogya bɛhyew no, ɔno ne nea ɔwɔ nyinaa, efisɛ wabu yɛn Agya apam so, na wayɛ animguase ade wɔ Israel.”

¹⁶Yosua sɔre anɔpahema de Israel baa anim abusuakuw abusuakuw, na wɔyii Yuda abusuakuw. ¹⁷Ɔde Yuda mmusua baa anim, na wɔyii Serafo abusua. Ɔde Serafo abusua baa anim efi efi, na wɔyii Sabdi. ¹⁸Yosua de Sabdi fifo baa anim ɔbarima biako biako, na wɔkyeree Karmi ba Akan, a ɔyɛ Sabdi nena ne Sera aseni a ofi Yuda abusuakuw mu no. ¹⁹Yosua ka kyerɛɛ Akan se, “Me ba, hyɛ yɛn Agya, Israel Nyankopɔn, anuonyam, na yi no ayɛ. Ka nea woayɛ kyerɛ me seesei; mfa nsie me.”

²⁰Akan buaa Yosua se, “Nokware, mayɛ bɔne atia yɛn Agya, Israel Nyankopɔn. Nea meyɛe ni: ²¹Mehuu atade fɛfɛ bi a efi Sinar wɔ asade no mu, ne dwetɛ bɛyɛ pɔn anum, ne sika kɔkɔɔ dwetɛbona bi a ne mu duru bɛyɛ pɔn 1.2. Mepɛɛ wɔn, na mefae; wɔasie wɔ me ntamadan mu fam, na dwetɛ no wɔ ase.”

²²Yosua somaa abɔfo; wɔtuu mmirika kɔɔ ntamadan no mu, kohuu sɛ wɔde asie wɔ ne ntamadan mu, na dwetɛ no wɔ ase. ²³Wɔyii nneɛma no fii ntamadan no mu, de baa Yosua ne Israelmma nyinaa nkyɛn, na wɔde guu yɛn Agya anim. ²⁴Yosua ne Israel nyinaa kyeree Sera aseni Akan, ne dwetɛ no, atade no, sika kɔkɔɔ dwetɛbona no, ne mmabarima ne ne mmabea, ne nantwi, ne mfurum, ne nguan, ne ntamadan ne nea ɔwɔ nyinaa, de wɔn foroo kɔɔ Akor Bon mu. ²⁵Yosua kae se, “Adɛn nti na wode ɔhaw aba yɛn so? Ɛnnɛ yɛn Agya de ɔhaw bɛba wo so.” Na Israel nyinaa de abo sii Akan, afei wɔde ogya hyew wɔn, na wɔde abo sii wɔn. ²⁶Wɔboaboaa abo kuw kɛse bi guu ne so, a ɛda hɔ de besi nnɛ. Afei yɛn Agya abufuw a ɛhyehye no dwoe. Enti wɔfrɛ beae hɔ Akor Bon de besi nnɛ. ^b b v26 ‘Akor’ kyerɛ ‘ɔhaw’; wɔtoo bon no din saa de kae amanehunu a Akan bɔne de baa Israel so no.
