Yosiua 23
1 Fa: nodafa, Isala: ili dunu da ilima ha lai dunu huluane hasali dagoloba, Hina Gode da ilima olofosu helefisu i. Amo esoha, Yosiua da da: idafa hamoi dagoi.
And it came to pass a long time after that Jehovah had given rest to Israel from all their enemies round about, and Joshua had become old, advanced in age,
2 Amaiba: le, e da Isala: ili dunu huluane, asigilai, ouligisu dunu amola fofada: su dunu amo huluane gilisili, ilima amane sia: i, “Na da wali da: idafa hamoi dagoi.
that Joshua called for all Israel, for their elders, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers, and said unto them, I am become old, advanced in age;
3 Dilia Hina Gode da dili fidima: ne, dilima ha lai dunuma hamoi, amo dilia da ba: i dagoi. Hina Gode, Hi fawane da dili fidima: ne, dilimagale gegenanu.
and ye have seen all that Jehovah your God hath done to all these nations because of you. For Jehovah your God is he that hath fought for you.
4 Na da dilia gaguma: ne, soge huluane ninia dunu fi da doagala: le lai (soge da eso mabadi la: idi Yodane Hano alalo asili eso dabe la: idi da Medidela: inia Hano Wayabo Bagade) amo dilima ilegei dagoi. Amola dunu fi ninia wali hame hasali, amo ilia soge dili gaguma: ne, na da ilegei dagoi.
Behold, I have divided unto you by lot for an inheritance, according to your tribes, these nations that remain, from the Jordan, as well as all the nations that I have cut off, as far as the great sea toward the sun-setting.
5 Dilia da amo dunuma gegemusa: ahoasea, dilia Hina Gode da amo dunu sefasimu. Dilia Hina Gode Ea ilegele sia: i defele, dilia da ilia soge lalegagumu.
And Jehovah your God, he will expel them from before you, and dispossess them from out of your sight; and ye shall take possession of their land, as Jehovah your God hath said unto you.
6 Amaiba: le, hamoma: ne sia: i huluane Mousese Sema Buga ganodini dedei amo nabawane hamoma. Afae mae fisima!
And be ye very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that ye turn not aside therefrom to the right hand or to the left;
7 Amasea, dilia da Ga: ina: ne soge dunu hame bogoi esala, ilima hame gilisimu. Dilia da ilia ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ilia dio hame sia: mu amola ilegele sia: musa: dawa: sea, ilia dioba: le hame sia: mu amola amo ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ilima hame sia: ne gadomu amola ilima hame begudumu.
that ye enter not among these nations, these that remain among you; and ye shall make no mention of the name of their gods, nor cause to swear [by them], neither serve them, nor bow yourselves unto them;
8 Be amo hou fisili, dilia da musa: amoganini wali hou defele, Hina Godema dafawaneyale dawa: le fa: no bobogema.
but ye shall cleave unto Jehovah your God, as ye have done unto this day.
9 Hina Gode da dili hasalima: ne, gasa bagade dunu fi amo sefasi dagoi. Dunu afae da dilima bu gegemu hamedei ba: i.
For Jehovah hath dispossessed from before you great and strong nations; and as to you, no man hath been able to stand before you unto this day.
10 Dilia dunu afae da gegebeba: le, eno 1000 agoane da hobeasa. Bai Hina Gode Ea ilegele sia: i defele, dili fidima: ne gegenana.
One man of you chaseth a thousand; for Jehovah your God, he it is that fighteth for you, as he hath said unto you.
11 Amaiba: le, dawa: ma! Dilia Hina Godema asigima!
Take great heed therefore unto your souls, that ye love Jehovah your God.
12 Dilia da houdafa fisili, amola Ga: ina: ne fi dunu dilia gilisisu ganodini esala ilima gilisisia, amola ilia uda lasea,
For if ye in any wise go back, and cleave unto the residue of these nations, these that remain among you, and make marriages with them, and come in unto them and they unto you:
13 noga: le dawa: ma! Dilia Hina Gode da amo dunu sefasisu amo fisimu. Be amo dunu da dilima sani agoane amola fegasu efe amola aya: gaga: nomei dilia si wadela: musa: amola amoga dilia se bagade nabimu. Amasea, dilia da se nabalu, asili, dilia dunu afae amo soge noga: i dilia Hina Gode da dilima i, amo ganodini da hamedafa ba: mu.
know for a certainty that Jehovah your God will no more dispossess these nations from before you, and they shall be snares and traps unto you, and scourges in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye perish from off this good land which Jehovah your God hath given you.
14 Wali, na bogomu eso da doaga: i dagoi. Dilia huluane dilia dogo ganodini amola dilia asigi dawa: su ganodini dawa: Dilia Hina Gode da liligi ida: iwane dilima imunu ilegele sia: i, amo huluane dilima i dagoi. Ea sia: i liligi huluane E da hamoi dagoi. Ea ilegele sia: i liligi afae da hame fisi.
And behold, I am going this day the way of all the earth; and ye know in all your heart, and in all your soul, that not one thing hath failed of all the good words that Jehovah your God hath spoken concerning you: all are come to pass unto you — not one thing hath failed thereof.
15 Be E da Ea ilegele sia: i liligi huluanedafa amo hamoi, amo defele Ea sisasu huluane E da hamomu.
But it shall come to pass, that as every good word hath been fulfilled to you, that Jehovah your God spoke to you, so will Jehovah bring upon you every evil word, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which Jehovah your God hath given you;
16 Dilia da gousa: su amo dilia Hina Gode da dili nabawane hamoma: ne sia: i, amo wadela: sea, amola dilia da eno ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ilima sia: ne gadosea amola hawa: hamosea, Hina Gode da ougili dilima se imunu amola dilia dunu afae amo noga: i soge E da dilima i, amo ganodini esalebe hamedafa ba: mu.”
when ye transgress the covenant of Jehovah your God which he commanded you, and go and serve other gods, and bow yourselves unto them, so that the anger of Jehovah shall be kindled against you, and ye shall perish quickly from off the good land which he hath given unto you.
