Yosiua 4
1 Isala: ili fi dunu huluane da Yodane Hano degei dagoloba, Hina Gode da Yosiuama amane sia: i,
And it came to pass, when all the nation were clean passed over the Jordan, that the LORD spoke unto Joshua, saying:
2 “Dunu fagoyale, Isala: ili fi fagoyale amoga afae afae amo ilegema.
'Take you twelve men out of the people, out of every tribe a man,
3 Ilia da igi fagoyale Yodane Hano dogoa gobele salasu dunu ilia lelu sogebi gala, amo lale dilia wali gasia esalebego amoga legema: ne sia: ma.”
and command ye them, saying: Take you hence out of the midst of the Jordan, out of the place where the priests' feet stood, twelve stones made ready, and carry them over with you, and lay them down in the lodging-place, where ye shall lodge this night.'
4 Amalalu, Yosiua da dunu fagoyale gala e da ilegei, ilima misa: ne sia: i.
Then Joshua called the twelve men, whom he had prepared of the children of Israel, out of every tribe a man;
5 E da ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo bisili, Yodane Hano amo ganodini masa. Dilia afae afae igi gisa masa. Amo da Isala: ili fi fagoyale gala afae afae igi afae gala.
and Joshua said unto them: 'Pass on before the ark of the LORD your God into the midst of the Jordan, and take you up every man of you a stone upon his shoulder, according unto the number of the tribes of the children of Israel;
6 Amo igi ba: sea, Isala: ili dunu da Hina Gode Ea hamoi amo bu dawa: mu. Hobea, dilia mano da amo igi gilisi ea bai amo dilima adole ba: sea,
that this may be a sign among you, that when your children ask in time to come, saying: What mean ye by these stones?
7 dilia da amo bai olelemu, amo Isala: ili fi amola Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili da hano degemusa: dawa: loba, hano ea ahoabe da yolesi dagoi. Isala: ili dunu da amo igi ba: sea, ilia da guiguda: hou amo dawa: lalumu.”
then ye shall say unto them: Because the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD; when it passed over the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off; and these stones shall be for a memorial unto the children of Israel for ever.'
8 Dunu ilegei da Yosiua ea sia: nabi. Hina Gode da Yosiuama sia: i amo defele, ilia da igi fagoyale gala (Isala: ili fi afae afae igi afae gala) amo Yodane Hano dogoa lale, ilia golamu sogebi amoga gisa asili ligisi.
And the children of Israel did so as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan, as the LORD spoke unto Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel; and they carried them over with them unto the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.
9 Amola Yosiua da igi fagoyale gala eno amo gobele salasu ilia Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili gaguli lelu sogebi Yodane Hano dogoa amoga legesu. (Amo igi da wali amogawi diala.)
Joshua also set up twelve stones in the midst of the Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests that bore the ark of the covenant stood; and they are there unto this day.
10 Gobele salasu dunu da Yodane Hano dogoa liligi huluane Hina Gode da Yosiua Isala: ili dunuma hamoma: ne sia: i, amo hamoi dagoi. Ilia da Yodane Hano dogoa ba: musa: lelu. Mousese da amo hou hamoma: ne sia: i. Dunu huluane da hedolo degei dagoi.
And the priests that bore the ark stood in the midst of the Jordan, until every thing was finished that the LORD commanded Joshua to speak unto the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua; and the people hastened and passed over.
11 Ilia da huluane na: iyado bega: doaga: loba, gobele salasu dunu da dunu eno bisili, Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo gaguli asi.
And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over, that the ark of the LORD passed on, and the priests, before the people.
12 Mousese ea sia: i defele, Liubene fi, Ga: de fi amola Mana: se fi la: idi ilia da gegesu liligi gaguli, dunu eno bisili degei.
And the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, passed on armed before the children of Israel, as Moses spoke unto them;
13 Hina Gode ba: ma: ne dunu 40,000 ilia gegesu liligi gaguli, Yodane Hano degele, umi soge Yeligou moilai bai bagade gadenene amoga doaga: i.
about forty thousand ready armed for war passed on in the presence of the LORD unto battle, to the plains of Jericho.
14 Hina Gode da amo eso hou hamobeba: le, Isala: ili dunu da Yosiua da gasa bagade mimogo dunu dawa: i. E da esalea, ilia da Mousesema dawa: i defele, Yosiuama nodosu.
On that day the LORD magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they feared Moses, all the days of his life.
15 Amalalu, Hina Gode da Yosiuama amane sia: i,
And the LORD spoke unto Joshua, saying:
16 “Gobele salasu dunu amo da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili gaguli ahoa, ilima ilia da Yodane Hano fisili osoboga heda: ma: ne sia: ma.”
'Command the priests that bear the ark of the testimony, that they come up out of the Jordan.'
17 Yosiua da agoane sia: i.
Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying: 'Come ye up out of the Jordan.'
18 Gobele salasu dunu da hano bega: doaga: le heda: loba, hano da bu ahoasu amola bu bagade nedei.
And it came to pass, as the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD came up out of the midst of the Jordan, as soon as the soles of the priests' feet were drawn up unto the dry ground, that the waters of the Jordan returned unto their place, and went over all its banks, as aforetime.
19 Eso nabuga amola oubi age amoga, Isala: ili dunu da Yodane Hano degele, Giliga: le soge (Yeligou moilai bai bagade amo ea eso mabadi la: idi gala) amoga ilia abula diasu gaguli gagai.
And the people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, on the east border of Jericho.
20 Amogawi Yosiua da igi fagoyale gala e Yodane Hanoga lai, amo legei.
And those twelve stones, which they took out of the Jordan, did Joshua set up in Gilgal.
21 E da Isala: ili dunuma amane sia: i, “Hobea dilia mano da amo igi ilia bai dilima adole ba: sea,
And he spoke unto the children of Israel, saying: 'When your children shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying: What mean these stones?
22 dilia da esoha amoga Isala: ili dunu da Yodane Hano amo osobo hafoga: i amoga degei ilima olelema.
then ye shall let your children know, saying: Israel came over this Jordan on dry land.
23 Dilia Hina Gode da Maga: me Hano Wayabo amo hafoga: i, amo defele Yodane Hano dili degema: ne hafoga: i, amo ilima olelema.
For the LORD your God dried up the waters of Jordan from before you, until ye were passed over, as the LORD your God did to the Red Sea, which He dried up from before us, until we were passed over,
24 Amo hou ba: beba: le, osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane da Hina Gode Ea gasa bagade hou dawa: mu, amola dilia da mae fisili eso huluane dilia Hina Godema nodonanumu.”
that all the peoples of the earth may know the hand of the LORD, that it is mighty; that ye may fear the LORD your God for ever.'
