< Yoswa 1 >
1 Atamwalira Mose mtumiki wa Mulungu, Yehova anati kwa Yoswa mwana wa Nuni mthandizi wa Mose:
Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade somfo no wu akyi no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Nun babarima Yosua, Mose boafo no se,
2 “Mose mtumiki wanga wamwalira. Ndipo iwe ndi anthu onsewa, tsopano konzekani kuwoloka mtsinje wa Yorodani kupita ku dziko limene ndiwapatse Aisraeli onse.
“Afei a me somfo Mose awu no, ɛsɛ sɛ wudi me nkurɔfo no anim kotwa Asubɔnten Yordan kɔ asase a mede rema wɔn no so.
3 Paliponse pamene phazi lanu liponde, ndikupatsani monga momwe ndinalonjezera Mose.
Sɛnea mehyɛɛ Mose bɔ no, baabiara a wode wo nan besi no, mede bɛma wo.
4 Dziko lanu lidzayambira ku chipululu kummwera mpaka ku mapiri a Lebanoni kumpoto, kuchokeranso ku mtsinje waukulu wa Yufurate kummawa, mpaka dziko lonse la Ahiti, kukafika ku Nyanja Yayikulu ya kumadzulo.
Efi Negeb sare a ɛwɔ anafo fam kosi Lebanon mmepɔw a ɛwɔ atifi fam, efi Asubɔnten Eufrate a ɛwɔ apuei fam kosi Ntam Po a ɛwɔ atɔe fam, ne Hetifo asase nyinaa.
5 Palibe munthu amene adzatha kukugonjetsa masiku onse a moyo wako. Monga Ine ndinakhalira ndi Mose, chomwechonso ndidzakhala nawe. Sindidzakusiya kapena kukataya.
Obiara rentumi nsɔre ntia wo, wo nkwanna nyinaa. Sɛnea na mekaa Mose ho no, saa ara na mɛka wo ho. Merennyaw wo na merempa wʼakyi da.
6 “Ukhale wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima, chifukwa iwe udzatsogolera anthu awa kukalandira dziko limene Ine ndinalonjeza makolo awo kuti ndidzawapatsa.
Wo ho nyɛ den na yɛ nnam, efisɛ wubedi me nkurɔfo yi anim akɔfa asase a mekaa ntam sɛ mede bɛma wɔn agyanom no nyinaa.
7 Ukhale wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima kwambiri. Usamale ndithu kuti umvere malamulo onse amene mtumiki wanga Mose anakupatsa. Usachoke pa malamulo anga ndipo kulikonse kumene udzapite udzapambana.
“Wo ho nyɛ den na yɛ nnam. Di mmara a Mose de maa wo no nyinaa so. Mfi ho, na wubedi nkonim biribiara a woyɛ mu.
8 Uziwerenga Buku la Malamuloli, uzilingalira zolembedwa mʼmenemo usana ndi usiku, kuti uchite zonse zimene zinalembedwamo. Ukamatero udzapeza bwino ndi kupambana.
Sua saa Mmara Nhoma yi bere biara. Dwen ho awia ne anadwo, sɛnea ɛbɛma woayɛ biribiara a wɔakyerɛw wɔ mu no. Saa na ɛbɛma asi wo yiye.
9 Paja ndinakulamula kuti ukhale wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima. Choncho usamachite mantha kapena kutaya mtima popeza Ine Yehova Mulungu wako ndidzakhala nawe kulikonse kumene udzapite.”
Mehyɛ wo sɛ, yɛ den na yɛ nnam! Nsuro, na mma wʼaba mu mmu, na Awurade wo Nyankopɔn ka wo ho baabiara a wobɛkɔ.”
10 Tsono Yoswa analamula atsogoleri a Aisraeli nawawuza kuti,
Afei, Yosua hyɛɛ Israel ntuanofo no se,
11 “Pitani ku misasa yonse ndipo muwuze anthu kuti, ‘Konzekani, mangani katundu wanu, popeza pakapita masiku atatu kuyambira lero mudzawoloka Yorodani kupita kukatenga dziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani.’”
“Momfa atenae no mu na monka nkyerɛ nnipa no ma wonsiesie wɔn nnuan. Nnansa akyi no, mubetwa Asubɔnten Yordan na moakɔfa asase a Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, de ama mo no.”
12 Koma Yoswa anawuza fuko la Rubeni, fuko la Gadi ndi theka la fuko la Manase kuti,
Afei Yosua frɛɛ Ruben ne Gad mmusuakuw ne Manase abusua no fa. Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se,
13 “Kumbukirani zimene Mose mtumiki wa Yehova anakulamulani kuti, ‘Yehova Mulungu wanu akukupatsani mpumulo, ndi dziko ili kuti likhale lanu.’
“Monkae ahyɛde a Awurade somfo Mose maa mo no: ‘Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn, rema mo ɔhome na ɔde asase yi ama mo.’
14 Tsono akazi anu, ana anu ndi ziweto zanu zitsale mʼdziko lino limene Mose anakupatsani kummawa kwa Yorodani. Koma ankhondo anu okha ndiwo awoloke atatenga zida zawo ndi kupita patsogolo pa abale anu kukawathandiza.
Mo yerenom, mo mma ne mo anantwi bɛtena Yordan apuei fam ha. Nanso, mo akofo a wɔasiesie wɔn ho ama ɔkɔ no bedi mmusuakuw a aka no anim atwa Yordan, na wɔaboa ma wɔafa asase no. Mo ne wɔn ntena hɔ
15 Abale anuwo akadzalandira dziko limene Yehova Mulungu wanu akuwapatsa monga inu mwachitira, inu mudzabwerera kudzakhazikika mʼdziko lanu limene Mose mtumiki wa Yehova anakupatsani tsidya la kummawa kwa Yorodani.”
nkosi sɛ Awurade bɛma wɔn ɔhome sɛnea wayɛ ama mo no. Na wɔn nso bedi asase a Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn de rema wɔn no so. Ɛno ansa na mode Yordan apuei fam ha asase a Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade somfo de maa mo no, bɛyɛ mo atenae.”
16 Kenaka iwo anayankha Yoswa kuti, “Ife tidzachita chilichonse chimene mwatilamula, ndipo kulikonse kumene mudzatitume tidzapita.
Wobuaa Yosua se, “Nea woahyɛ yɛn sɛ yɛnyɛ nyinaa yɛbɛyɛ, na baabiara a wobɛsoma yɛn nso, yɛbɛkɔ.
17 Monga momwe tinamvera Mose kwathunthu, chomwechonso tidzakumvera iwe. Yehova Mulungu wanu akhale nanu monga momwe anachitira ndi Mose.
Yɛbɛyɛ osetie ama wo sɛnea yɛyɛ maa Mose no. Awurade wo Nyankopɔn, nni wʼakyi sɛnea odii Mose akyi no.
18 Aliyense wotsutsana ndi inu kapena wosamvera zimene mutilamula adzaphedwa. Inu mukhale wamphamvu ndi wolimba mtima!”
Obiara a ɔbɛtew wʼasɛm so atua na wanni wʼahyɛde mu biara so no, wonkum no. Enti, hyɛ wo ho den na nya akokoduru!”
