Yosiua 1
1 Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamosu dunu Mousese da bogoi dagoloba, Hina Gode da Mousese ea fidisu dunu amo Yosiua (Nane egefe) ema sia: i.
After the death of Moses, the servant of the Lord, the Lord spoke to Joshua, the son of Nun, who had been Moses' assistant. He told him,
2 E amane sia: i, “Na hawa: hamosu dunu Mousese da bogoi dagoi. Defea! Di amola Isala: ili dunu huluane, dilia liligi momagele, Yodane Hano degele, soge amo Na da dilima iaha amo ganodini golili sa: ima.
“My servant Moses has died. So go and cross the Jordan, you and all the people, and enter the country I am giving to the Israelites.
3 Na da Mousesema sia: i defele, Na da di amola Na fi dunu huluane dilima soge huluane dilia osa: gimu, amo dilima imunu.
As I promised Moses, everywhere you set foot will be land I am giving to you,
4 Dilia soge alalo da wadela: i hafoga: i soge ga (south) diala amoga asili Lebanone Goumi ga (north) doaga: mu. Eso mabadi la: idi Iufala: idisi Hano amoga asili dilia Hidaide dunu ilia soge huluane lale, eso dabe la: idi Medidela: inia Hano Wayabo Bagade amoga doaga: mu.
from the desert to Lebanon, and on up to the River Euphrates; all the land of the Hittites, and to the shore of the Mediterranean Sea to the west. This will be your territory.
5 Yosiua! Di esalea, eno dunu da di hasalimu hamedei ba: mu. Na da Mousese fidi, amo defele eso huluane di fidimu. Na da di hamedafa fisimu.
No one will be able to stand against you while you live. Just as I was with Moses, I will be with you. I will never leave you; I will never abandon you.
6 Di gasa bagade mae beda: iwane esaloma. Na fi dunu da soge, Na da ilia aowalali ilima imunu ilegele sia: i, amo gesowale fisia, di da ilima bisili ahoasu ouligisu dunu esalumu.
Be strong! Be brave! You will be the people's leader as they occupy the land I promised their ancestors that I would give them.
7 Be di gasa bagade mae beda: iwane esaloma. Hamoma: ne sia: i huluane Na hawa: hamosu dunu Mousese da dima i, amo nabawane hamoma. Dia hou huluane hahawane ba: ma: ne, amo hamoma: ne sia: i huluane noga: le fa: no bobogema.
Just be strong and very brave, and be sure to obey all the law that my servant Moses instructed you to follow. Don't turn aside from it, either to the right or to the left, so that you may be successful in everything you do.
8 Dilia da Nama nodone sia: ne gadosea, eso huluane amo sema buga idima. Eso amola gasi, ea bai hogole ba: ma. Liligi huluane amo ganodini dedei noga: le nabima. Amasea, dilia da bagade gagui amola hou huluane didili hamone, hahawane ba: mu.
Keep on reminding the people about the law. Meditate on it day and night, so you can be sure to do what it requires. Then you will be successful and prosper in what you do.
9 Mae gogolema! Na da di gasa bagade amola mae beda: iwane hamoma: ne sia: i. Mae da: i dioma amola mae beda: ma! Bai Na, dilia Hina Gode, Na da dilia ahoabe huluane amo sigi ahoa.
Don't forget what I told you: Be strong! Be brave! Don't be afraid! Don't get discouraged! For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
10 Amalalu, Yosiua da Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu ilima amane sia: i,
Then Joshua gave an order to those in charge of the people:
11 “Abula diasu gilisisu amo ganodini asili, Isala: ili dunuma amane sia: ma, ‘Ha: i manu momagema. Bai eso udiana asili dilia da Yodane Hano degele, soge amo dilia Hina Gode da dilima iaha amo gesowale fimu.’
“Go through the whole camp and tell the people, ‘Get everything ready, because in three days time we will cross the Jordan, to go and take the land God is giving to you to possess.’”
12 Yosiua da fi mogili amo Liubene, Ga: de amola Eso Mabadi la: idi Mana: se fi ilima amane sia: i,
But to the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh, Joshua said,
13 “Dawa: ma! Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamosu dunu Mousese da dilia Hina Gode da soge Yodane Hano dilia wali lela amo eso mabadi la: idi amo, dili fima: ne dilima imunu sia: i.
“Remember what Moses, the servant of the Lord, ordered you to do: ‘The Lord your God is giving you rest, and will give you this land.’
14 Dilia uda, mano amola ohe fi da guiguda: esaloma. Be dilia dadi gagui dunu ilia gegesu liligi gaguli, dilia eno na: iyado Isala: ili dunu amo fidima: ne, ilima bisili hano degema.
Your wives and children, and your livestock will remain here in the land that Moses allotted you on the east side of the Jordan. But all your armed men, ready for battle, will cross over ahead of your brothers to help them,
15 Ilia da Yodane Hano eso dabe la: idi soge amo dilia Hina Gode da ilima i, amo gesowale fima: ne dilia fidima. Ilia da amo soge lai dagosea, dilia buhagili, soge Yodane Hano eso mabadi la: idi amo Hina Gode Ea hawa: hamosu dunu Mousese da dilima i, amo ganodini fima.”
until the Lord lets them rest, as he has let you rest, and they too have taken possession of the land that the Lord is giving to you. Then you can return and occupy your own land which Moses allotted to you on the east side of the Jordan.”
16 Isala: ili dunu da Yosiuama bu adole i, “Defea! Ninia da dia sia: i huluane hamomu. Dia adi sogega nini asunahoasea, ninia da amogai masunu.
They said to Joshua, “We will do everything you have ordered us to do, and we will go wherever you send us.
17 Ninia da Mousese ea sia: nabasu, amo defele dia sia: nabimu. Amola dia Hina Gode da Mousese fidi amo defele E da di fidimu da defea.
We will obey you just as we obeyed Moses in everything. May the Lord God be with you as he was with Moses.
18 Nowa da dia sia: hame nabasea, amo dunu ninia da medole legemu. Be di gasa bagade amola mae beda: iwane hamoma!”
Anyone who rebels against what you say and doesn't follow your orders, who doesn't obey everything you command, will be put to death. So be strong! Be brave!”
