Joshua 24

1 Bangʼe Joshua nochoko dhout Israel duto kama iluongo ni Shekem. Noluongo jodongo, jotelo, jongʼad bura kod jotelo mamoko mag Israel mi gidhi e nyim Nyasaye.

And Josue gaderide alle the lynagis of Israel in to Sechem; and he clepide the grettere men in birthe, and the princes, and iugis, and maistris; and thei stoden in the siyt of the Lord.

2 Joshua nowachone ji duto niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel wacho, Chon gi lala kwereu, motingʼo nyaka Tera ma wuon Ibrahim kod Nahor, nodak but Aora Yufrate kendo negilamo nyiseche manono.

And he spak thus to the puple, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Youre fadris dwelliden at the bigynnyng biyende the flood Eufrates, Thare, the fadir of Abraham, and Nachor, and thei serueden alien goddis.

3 Makmana nagolo wuonu Ibrahim oa e pinyno machiegni gi Aora Yufrate mi atelone e piny Kanaan duto kendo amiye nyikwayo mathoth. Ne amiye Isaka,

Therfor Y took youre fadir Abraham fro the coostis of Mesopotanye, and Y brouyte hym in to the lond of Canaan; and Y multipliede `the seed of hym,

4 to Isaka namiyo Jakobo kod Esau. Ne awalo piny Seir manie got ne Esau, to Jakobo gi nyithinde nodhi Misri.

and Y yaf Isaac to hym; and eft Y yaf to Isaac, Jacob, and Esau, of whiche Y yaf to Esau the hil of Seir, to `haue in possessioun; forsothe Jacob and hise sones yeden doun in to Egipt.

5 “‘Bangʼe ne aoro Musa gi Harun, kendo ne agoyo jo-Misri gi tuoche kanyo, bangʼe agolou oko.

And Y sente Moises and Aaron, and Y smoot Egipt with many signes and wondris,

6 Kane agolo wuoneu Misri, ne uchopo e nam, kendo jo-Misri nolawou gi geche kod jogo mariambo farese nyaka e Nam Makwar.

and Y ledde you and youre fadris out of Egipt. And ye camen to the see, and Egipcians pursueden youre fadris with charis, and multitude of knyytis, `til to the Reed See.

7 To ne giywakne Jehova Nyasaye mondo okonygi, omiyo ne oketo mudho e kindu gi jo-Misri; mi nam oimogi. Ne uneno gima ne atimone jo-Misri. Bangʼ mano nudak e thim kuom ndalo marabora.

Forsothe the sones of Israel crieden to the Lord, and he settide derknessis bitwixe you and Egipcians; and he brouyte the see on hem, and hilide hem. Youre iyen sien alle thingis, whiche Y dide in Egipt. And ye dwelliden in wildirnesse in myche tyme.

8 “‘Ne akelou nyaka e piny jo-Amor manodak yo wuok chiengʼ mar aora Jordan. Negikedo kodu, to naketogi e lwetu. Ne atiekogi chuth e nyimu, mi ukawo pinygi.

And Y brouyte you in to the lond of Ammorrei, that dwellide biyende Jordan; and whanne thei fouyten ayens you, Y bitook hem in to youre hondis, and ye hadden in possessioun `the lond of hem, and ye killiden hem.

9 Kane Balak wuod Zipor, ma ruodh Moab, ne ikore mondo oked gi Israel, nooro Balaam wuod Beor mondo okwongʼu.

Sotheli Balach, the sone of Sephor, the king of Moab, roos, and fauyt ayens Israel; and he sente, and clepide Balaam, the sone of Beor, that he schulde curse you.

10 To ne ok anyal chiko ita ne Balaam, omiyo nogwedhou mogundho, mi nagolou oko e lwete.

And Y nolde here hym, but ayenward bi hym Y blesside you, and delyuerede you fro hise hondis.

11 “‘Bangʼe ne ungʼado aora Jordan mi ubiro Jeriko. Joma odak Jeriko, kaka jo-Amor, jo-Perizi, jo-Kanaan, jo-Hiti, jo-Girgash, jo-Hivi, gi jo-Jebus nokedo kodu, to ne achiwogi duto e lwetu.

And ye passiden Jordan, and camen to Jerico; and men of that citee fouyten ayens you, Ammorrei, and Feresei, and Cananei, Ethei, and Gergesei, and Euei, and Jebusei; and Y bitook hem in to youre hondis.

12 Ne amiyo kibaji omakogi ma giringo e nyimu, kaachiel gi ruodhi jo-Amor ariyo. Ne ok utimo ma gi liganglau uwegi kod atungʼ.

And Y sente flies with venemouse tongis bifor you, and Y castide hem out of her places; Y kyllide twei kyngis of Ammorreis, not in thi swerd and bowe.

13 Omiyo ne amiyou piny mane ok utiyone kod mier madongo mane ok ugero; mi udak kanyo kendo uchamo olemb mzabibu kod zeituni ma bende ne ok upidho.’

And Y yaf to you the lond in which ye traueiliden not, and citees whiche ye bildiden not, that ye schulden dwelle in tho, and vyneris, and places of olyue trees, whiche ye plauntiden not.

14 “Omiyo koro luoruru Jehova Nyasaye kendo beduru joratiro kinde duto kutiyone. Wituru oko nyiseche manono mag kwereu mane gilamo yo Aora Yufrate kod e piny Misri, mondo uti ne Jehova Nyasaye.

Now therfor drede ye the Lord, and serue ye hym with perfite herte and moost trewe; and do ye awei the goddis, to whiche youre fadris seruyden in Mesopotanye, and in Egipt; and serue ye the Lord.

15 To ka dipo ni tiyone Jehova Nyasaye ok miu mor, to kawuononi yier aneuru ngʼama ubiro tiyone, kata ka en nyiseche manono mane kwereu tiyone e Aora Yufrate, kata en nyiseche manono mag jo-Amor, modak e pinygi. Makmana an gi jooda duto, wabiro tiyone Jehova Nyasaye.”

But if it semeth yuel to you, `that ye serue the Lord, chesyng is youun to you; chese ye to you to dai that, that plesith, whom ye owen most to serue; whether to goddis, whiche youre fadris serueden in Mesopotanye, whether to the goddis of Ammorreis, in whose lond ye dwellen; forsothe Y, and myn hows schulen serue the Lord.

16 Eka ji nodwoko niya, “Mad gima chal kamano kik timrenwa ka wajwangʼo Jehova Nyasaye, mondo watine nyiseche manono!

And al the puple answeride and seide, Fer be it fro vs that we forsake the Lord, and serue alien goddis.

17 En Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa owuon mane ogolowa gi kwerewa e piny Misri, e piny mane wan wasumbini, kendo motimo ranyisi madongo-go ka waneno. Ne oritowa e wuodhwa duto kendo e kind ogendini duto mane wakalo eigi.

`Oure Lord God hym silf ledde vs and oure fadris out of the lond of Egipt, fro the hows of seruage, and dide grete signes in oure siyt; and he kepte vs in al the weie, bi which we yeden, and in alle puplis, bi whiche we passiden; and he castide out alle folkis,

18 Kendo Jehova Nyasaye ne oriembo ogendini duto e nyimwa, kaachiel gi jo-Amor, mane odak e pinyno. Wan bende wabiro tiyone Jehova Nyasaye, nikech en e Nyasachwa.”

Ammorrei, the dwellere of the lond, in to which we entriden. Therfor we schulen serue the Lord, for he is `oure Lord God.

19 Joshua nowachone ji niya, “Ok unyal tiyone Jehova Nyasaye. En Nyasaye maler, en Nyasaye ma janyiego. Ok obi wenu kuom wich teko maru kod richo mutimo.

And Josue seide to the puple, Ye moun not serue the Lord; for God is hooli, and a strong feruent louyere, and he foryyueth not youre trespassis and synnes.

20 Ka ungʼanyo uweyo Jehova Nyasaye mi utiyo ne nyiseche manono, to obiro lokore mi okelnu thagruok kendo enotieku duto, kata obedo ni ne osedoko jakoru kamano.”

If ye forsaken the Lord, and seruen alien goddis, the Lord schal turne `hym silf, and schal turment you, and schal distrie, after that he hath youe goodis to you.

21 To jo-Israel nodwoko Joshua niya, “Ooyo! Wabiro tiyone Jehova Nyasaye.”

And the puple seide to Josue, It schal not be so, as thou spekist, but we schulen serue the Lord.

22 Bangʼe Joshua nowacho niya, “Un uwegi usebedo joneno magu kuom yiero mondo uti ne Jehova Nyasaye.” Negidwoko niya, “Ee, wan joneno.”

And Josue seide to the puple, Ye ben witnessis, that ye han chose the Lord to you, that ye serue him. And thei answeriden, We ben witnessis.

23 Joshua nowacho niya, “Koro wituru nyiseche manono manie dieru mondo uchiw chunyu ni tiyo ne Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel.”

Therfor, he seide, Now do ye awei alien goddis fro the myddis of you, and bowe ye youre hertis to the Lord God of Israel.

24 To jogo nowachone Joshua niya, “Wabiro tiyone Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa kendo wanamiye luor.”

And the puple seide to Josue, We schulen serue `oure Lord God, and we schulen be obedient to hise heestis.

25 E odiechiengno Joshua noketo singruok ne jogo, kendo kane gin Shekem nomiyogi chike monego gilu.

Therfor Josue smoot a boond of pees in that dai, and settide forth to the puple comaundementis and domes in Sichen.

26 Joshua nondiko gigo duto piny e Kitabu mar Chik mar Nyasaye. Bangʼe nokawo kidi maduongʼ mi okete maber e tiend yiend ober but kama ler mar Jehova Nyasaye.

And he wroot alle these wordis in the book of Goddis lawe. And he took a greet stoon, and puttide it vndur an ook, that was in the seyntuarie of the Lord.

27 Nowachone jogo niya, “Neuru! Kidini biro bedo janeno kuomu. Osewinjo weche duto ma Jehova Nyasaye osewachonwa. Obiro bedo janeno kuomu ka ubedo jo-miriambo ne Nyasachu.”

And he seide to al the puple, Lo! this stoon schal be to you in to witnessing, that ye herden alle the wordis of the Lord, whiche he spak to you, lest perauenture ye wolden denye aftirward, and lye to youre Lord God.

28 Bangʼe Joshua nogolo ji duto mondo odhi kuondegi mane opognigi.

And he lefte the puple, ech man in to his possessioun.

29 Bangʼ mago duto, Joshua wuod Nun, jatich Jehova Nyasaye, notho ka en gi higni mia achiel gapar.

And after these thingis Josue, the sone of Nun, the `seruaunt of the Lord, diede, an hundride yeer eld and ten.

30 Kendo ne giike e lope mane opogne, mantiere Timnath Sera e piny gode mag Efraim, mantiere yo nyandwat mar Gash.

And thei birieden hym in the costis of his possessioun, in Thannath of Sare, which is set in the hil of Effraym, fro the north part of the hil Gaas.

31 Jo-Israel notiyone Jehova Nyasaye e ndalo duto mag ngima Joshua kod jodongo mane osedak higni moloye, kendo mane nigi lony kuom gik moko duto mane Jehova Nyasaye osetimo ni jo-Israel.

And Israel seruede the Lord in alle the daies of Josue, and of the eldre men, that lyueden in long tyme aftir Josue, and whiche eldre men knewen alle the werkis of the Lord, whiche he hadde do in Israel.

32 To choke Josef, mane jo-Israel nobiro godo koa Misri, noiki Shekem e pinyno mane Jakobo ongʼiewo fedha mia achiel koa kuom yawuot Hamor, ma wuon Shekem. Ma nobedo kaka pok mar nyikwa Josef.

Also `the sones of Israel birieden the boonys of Joseph, whiche thei baren fro Egipt in Sichen, in the part of the feeld, which feeld Jacob bouyte of the sones of Emor, fadir of Sichen, for an hundrid yonge scheep; and it was in to possessioun of the sones of Joseph.

33 Eliazar wuod Harun bende notho kendo noyike Gibea, kama nopogne wuode Finehas e piny gode mag Efraim.

Also Eliazar, sone of Aaron, preest, diede; and Fynees and hise sones biryden hym in Gabaa, which was youun to hym in the hil of Efraym.
