Yosiua 24
1 Yosiua da Isala: ili fi huluane Siegeme moilai bai bagadega gilisi. E da asigilai dunu, ouligisu dunu, fofada: su dunu amola Isala: ili ouligisu dunu misa: ne sia: i. Ilia da Hina Godema misi.
Joshua summoned all the tribes of Israel to Shechem. Then he called the elders, leaders, judges, and officials and they came and stood before the Tabernacle of God.
2 Yosiua da dunu huluanema amane sia: i, “Hina Gode, Isala: ili fi ilia Gode da amane sia: sa, ‘Hemonega dilia aowalali da Iufala: idisi Hano na: iyadodili esalu, eno ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ilima sia: ne gadosu. Dilia siba eda afae da Dila, A:ibalaha: me amola Na: iho ela eda.
Joshua said to all the people, “The Lord, the God of Israel, says this: ‘Long, long ago your forefathers, including Terah, the father of Abraham and Nahor, lived beyond the Euphrates River, and they worshiped other gods.
3 Amalalu, Na da dilia siba eda A: ibalaha: me amo soge Iufala: idisi Hano na: iyado amoga lale, amola Ga: ina: ne soge amoga oule asi. Na da ema egaga fi bagohame i. Na da Aisage ema i.
I brought your father Abraham from beyond the Euphrates and led him through all the land of Canaan and gave him many descendants. I gave him Isaac.
4 Na da Aisagema, Ya: igobe amola Iso i. Na da Isoma amo Idome agolo soge i. Be dilia aowa Ya: igobe amola ea mano da Idibidi sogega sa: i.
I gave to Isaac Jacob and Esau. I gave to Esau the hill country of Seir to own, but Jacob and his children went down to Egypt.
5 Fa: no Na da Mousese amola Elane asunasili, Idibidi dunuma se bagade iasu. Be Na da dili gadili oule asi.
I sent Moses and Aaron, and I brought plagues on the people of Egypt, and I brought you out.
6 Na da dilia aowalali Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, gadili oule misi. Idibidi dunu ilia dadi gagui amola sa: liode da: iya fila heda: i dunu da dilia aowalali fane legemusa: fa: no bobogei. Be dilia aowalali da Maga: me Hano Wayabo amoga doaga: loba,
Yes, I brought your forefathers out, but when you arrived at the Red Sea the Egyptians were chasing after your forefathers with chariots and horsemen.
7 ilia da Na fidima: ne Nama wele sia: i. Na da ili amola Idibidi dunu afafamusa: , gasi bagade hamoi. Na da hamobeba: le, hano da Idibidi dunu dedebole, ilia da huluane gela sa: ili, bogogia: i. Na hou Idibidi dunuma hamoi, amo huluane dilia dawa: Dilia da hafoga: i wadela: i soge amo ganodini ode bagohame esalu.
Your forefathers called out to the Lord for help, and he placed darkness between you and the Egyptians. Then he brought the sea back over them and they drowned. You saw what I did with your own eyes in Egypt. Then you lived for many years in the wilderness.
8 Amalalu, Na da dili A: moulaide dunu ilia soge Yodane Hano ea eso mabadi la: idi amoga oule misi. Ilia da dilima gegei, be Na da dili fidibiba: le, dilia amo dunu fane legei. Dilia da ilia soge lai amola dilia da gusuba: i ahoanoba, Na da amo dunu wadela: lesi.
After that I brought you to the land of the Amorites who lived on the other side of the Jordan. They fought against you but I handed them over to you to defeat and you took over their land. I destroyed them before you.
9 Amalalu, Moua: be hina bagade dunu, Sibo ea mano Ba: ila: ge da dilima gegei. E da Ba: ila: me (Bio ea mano) ema e da dilima gagabusu aligima: ne sia: adole iasi.
When Balak, son of Zippor, the king of Moab, wanted to fight against Israel, he sent for Balaam, son of Beor, to come and curse you.
10 Be Na da Ba: ila: me ea sia: hame nabi. Amaiba: le, e da dilima Na da dili hahawane dogolegelewane fidima: ne sia: i. Na da agoane Ba: ila: ge dili hame wadela: ma: ne dili gaga: i.
But I wasn't willing to listen to Balaam, so instead he blessed you repeatedly, and saved you from Balak.
11 Dilia da Yodane Hano degele, Yeligou moilai bai bagadega doaga: i. Yeligou dunu da dilima gegei. A: moulaide dunu, Belisaide dunu, Ga: ina: naide dunu, Hidaide dunu, Gegasiaide dunu, Haifaide dunu amola Yebiusaide dunu huluane da dilima gegei. Be Na da fidibiba: le, dilia da amo huluane hasali dagoi.
You crossed the Jordan and arrived at Jericho where the men of Jericho fought against you. So did the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Girgashites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.
12 Dilia da gusuba: i ahoanoba, Na da ili beda: ma: ne hamosu. Dilia da A: moulaide hina bagade aduna gadili sefasima: ne, Na da agoane hamoi. Dilia gegesu gobihei amola dadi da amo hasalasu hou hame hamosu.
But I handed them over to you to defeat. And I sent the hornet before you to drive out the two kings of the Amorites. You did not win using your swords or your bows!
13 Na da soge amo dilia da hame dogosu amola moilai bai bagade dilia da hame gagui amo dilima i. Wali dilia da amo soge ganodini esala amola waini efe amo dilia hame sagai amoga dilia da waini fage naha amola olife ifa amo dilia hame bugi amoga olife fage naha.’”
I gave you a land you didn't work for and towns you didn't build. Now you live in them and eat from vineyards and olive groves you didn't plant.’
14 Yosiua da bu amane sia: i, “Amaiba: le, Godema nodoma amola mae fisili, hahawane Ea hawa: hamosu hamoma. Ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi amo dilia aowalali da Mesoubouda: imia amola Idibidi amo ganodini ilima hawa: hamosu, amo ha: digili, Hina Godema fawane hawa: hamoma.
So respect the Lord and worship him, sincerely and faithfully. Get rid of the gods your forefathers worshiped beyond the Euphrates and in Egypt, and worship the Lord.
15 Be dilia Ema hawa: hamomusa: hame hanai galea, defea, wali eso dilia da nowama hawa: hamomusa: dawa: sea, sia: ma! Dilia da ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi amo dilia aowalali da Mesoubouda: imia sogega sia: ne gadosu amo dilia da dafawaneyale dawa: le, lalegaguma: bela: ? O A: moulaide (ilia soge ganodini dilia da wali esala) amo dunu ilia ‘gode’ liligi lalegaguma: bela: ? Be na amola na sosogo fi da Hina Gode amo Ea hawa: hamosu fawane hamomu.”
But if you don't want to worship the Lord, choose today who you want to worship! Is it going to be the gods your forefathers worshipped beyond the Euphrates? Or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you're now living? But as for me and my family, we will worship the Lord!”
16 Dunu huluane da bu adole i, “Ninia da eno ‘gode’ liligi ilima hawa: hamoma: ne, Hina Godedafa hamedafa fisimu.
The people responded, “We are never going to give up on the Lord and worship other gods!
17 Ninia Hina Gode da ninia aowalali amola nini amo Idibidi soge (amo ganodini ninia da udigili se nabawane hawa: hamosu) amoga fadegai dagoi. Ea musa: hame ba: su gasa bagade hou ninia ba: i dagoi. Ninia da dunu fi eno amoga baligili asili, E da eso huluane nini gaga: i.
For the Lord our God brought us and our forefathers out of slavery in Egypt. He was the one who did great miracles before our very eyes. He looked after us on the way as we traveled through the lands of many nations.
18 Ninia da amo soge ganodini golili sa: ili, Hina Gode da A: moulaide dunu amo ganodini esalu gadili sefasi. Amaiba: le, ninia da Hina Godema fa: no bobogemu hanai. E da ninia Gode.”
The Lord drove out before us the Amorites and all the other nations who were living in the land. So we will worship the Lord, for he is our God!”
19 Yosiua da dunu huluanema amane sia: i, “Be dilia Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamosu hamomu da hamedei. E da hadigi Gode amola E da dilia hame nabasu hou hame gogolema: ne olofomu. E da mudasu Gode, E da dili eno ‘gode’ liligi ilima fa: no bobogema: ne hamedafa ba: mu.
Joshua told the people, “Remember that the Lord is a holy and jealous God. You won't be able to worship him, and he won't forgive your rebellion and sins
20 Amola dilia da E fisili, ga fi ‘gode’ liligi ilima fa: no bobogesea, E da dilima sinidigili se bagade imunu. E da musa: dilima hahawane amola asigisu, be fa: no E da dili wadela: lesimu.”
if you give up on him and worship foreign gods. He will turn against you and destroy you despite all the good he has done for you.”
21 Dunu huluane da Yosiuama amane sia: i, “Hame mabu! Ninia da dafawane Hina Godema fa: no bobogemu.”
“Don't say that!” the people replied. “We will worship the Lord!”
22 Yosiua da ilima bu adole i, “Dilisu da dilila: ba: su dunu esala. Dilia da Hina Godema fa: no bobogema: ne ilegei dagoi.” Ilia da amane sia: i, “Dafawane! Nini fawane da amo hou ba: su dunu.”
Then Joshua cautioned the people, “You have made yourselves witnesses against yourselves by saying that you have chosen to worship the Lord.” “Yes, we are witnesses,” the people replied.
23 Yosiua da amane sia: i, “Amaiba: le, amo ga fi ‘gode’ liligi dilia gagusa, amo fadegale fisima. Amola Isala: ili Hina Godema dafawane fa: no bobogema: ne ilegele sia: ma!”
“Then get rid of those foreign gods you have and promise to be loyal only to the Lord, the God of Israel,” Joshua told them.
24 Amalalu, dunu huluane da Yosiuama amane sia: i, “Ninia da ninia Hina Godema fa: no bobogele, Ea hawa: hamomu. Ninia da Ea hamoma: ne sia: i nabawane hamomu.”
The people said to Joshua, “We will worship the Lord our God and we will obey him.”
25 Amaiba: le, Yosiua da amo esoha ilima gousa: su hamoi. Siegeme moilai bai bagadega e da sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i ilima i.
So Joshua made a solemn agreement between the people and the Lord that day in Shechem, obligating them to follow all the Lord's laws and instructions.
26 Yosiua da amo hamoma: ne sia: i, amo Hina Gode Ea Sema Buga ganodini dedei. Amalalu, e da gele bagade lale, ouge ifa Hina Gode Ea hadigi sogebi ganodini dialu, amo hagudu ligisi.
Joshua recorded this in the Book of the Law of God, and he set up a large stone under the oak tree near the Lord's sanctuary.
27 E da dunu huluanema amane sia: i, “Amo gele da ninia dawa: digima: ne ba: su olei agoane. Amo gele da sia: huluane Hina Gode da ninima sia: i, amo nabi dagoi. Amaiba: le, dilia da dilia Godema odoga: su hou hamosa: besa: le, amo gele da dilima ba: su olei agoane.”
Joshua said to the people, “Look at this stone. It stands here as a witness against us for it has heard everything the Lord has told us, and it will be a witness against you if you ever deny what you have promised your God.”
28 Amalalu, Yosiua da dunu huluane gadili asunasi. Amola ilia huluane da ilia sogedafa amoga asi.
Then Joshua dismissed the people, sending them to their allotted lands.
29 Amalalu, Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamosu dunu, Nane egefe Yosiua, da bogoi dagoi. E da lalelegele, ode 110 gidigi.
Later, after all this, Joshua, son of Nun, servant of the Lord, died at the age of one hundred and ten.
30 Ilia da ea soge ganodini ea da: i hodo uli dogone sali. Ea soge da Dimina: de Sila amo Ifala: ime agolo soge Ga: ia: se Goumi amo gano galu.
They buried him in Timnath-serah in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash, the land he had been allocated.
31 Yosiua da esalea, Isala: ili dunu da Hina Godema noga: le fa: no bobogei. Yosiua da bogoloba, Isala: ili ouligisu dunu amo da Hina Gode Ea Isala: ili fidisu hou ba: i dagoi, amo dunu da esalea, Isala: ili dunu da Hina Godema noga: le fa: no bobogei.
The Israelites continued to worship the Lord throughout Joshua's life, and throughout the lifetimes of the elders who outlived him, those who had seen all that the Lord had done for Israel.
32 Yousefe ea da: i hodo amo Isala: ili dunu da Idibidi sogega gaguli misi, amo ilia da Siegeme moilai bai bagadega uli dogoi. Ilia da sogebi amo Ya: igobe da Ha: imo (Siegeme ea mano) amo ea manoma silifa fage 100 amoga lai, amo ganodini uli dogoi. Amo sogebi, Yousefe egaga fi da ilia edama nana lai.
The bones of Joseph, which the Israelites had brought with them from Egypt, they buried in Shechem in the piece of ground Jacob had bought from the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem, for one hundred pieces of silver. This land was inherited by Joseph's sons.
33 Elia: isa (Elane ea mano) amola da bogoi. Ilia da ea da: i hodo amo Gibia moilai (Ifala: ime agolo soge ganodini dialu. Amo moilai ilia da Elia: isa egefe Finia: se ema i dagoi) amoga uli dogone sali. Sia: Ama Dagoi Yosiua 24:15 “Wali eso, dilia da nowama fa: no bobogele, hawa: hamomusa: dawa: sea, sia: ma! Be na amola na sosogo fi da Hina Gode amo Ea hawa: hamosu fawane hamomu.”
And Eleazar, son of Aaron, died and they buried him at Gibeah, in the hill country of Ephraim, land which had been given to his son Phinehas.
