Joshua 24
1 Then Joshua assembled all the tribes of Israel at Shechem. He summoned the elders, leaders, judges, and officers of Israel, and they presented themselves before God.
A LAILA, hoiliili mai la o Iosua i na ohana a pau a Iseraela ma Sekema, a kahea aku la oia i na lunakahiko a Iseraela, a me ko lakou alii, a me ko lakou lunakanawai, a me ka poe luna o lakou; a noho iho la lakou imua o ke alo o ke Akua.
2 And Joshua said to all the people, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Long ago your fathers, including Terah the father of Abraham and Nahor, lived beyond the Euphrates and worshiped other gods.
Olelo mai la o Iosua i na kanaka a pau, Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o Iseraela penei, Ua noho no ko oukou kupuna ma kela kapa o ka muliwai, i ka wa kahiko, o Tera ka makuakane o Aberahama, o ka makuakane hoi o Nahora; a malama no lakou i na'kua e.
3 But I took your father Abraham from beyond the Euphrates and led him through all the land of Canaan, and I multiplied his descendants. I gave him Isaac,
A lawe au i ko oukou kupuna ia Aberahama, mai kela kapa ae o ka muliwai, a alakai au ia ia i na aina a pau o Kanaana nei, a hoonui i kona hua, a haawi no au ia Isaaka nana.
4 and to Isaac I gave Jacob and Esau. I gave Esau Mount Seir to possess, but Jacob and his sons went down to Egypt.
A haawi au na Isaaka ia Iakoba a me Esau: a haawi au na Esau i ka mauna o Seira, i wahi e noho ai nona; aka, o Iakoba a me kana mau keiki, hele lakou ilalo i Aigupita.
5 Then I sent Moses and Aaron, and I afflicted the Egyptians by what I did there, and afterward I brought you out.
Hoouna aku au ia Mose, a me Aarona, a hoomainoino au ia Aigupita, ma ka mea a'u i hana'i mawaena o lakou; a mahope iho, lawe mai au ia oukou mawaho.
6 When I brought your fathers out of Egypt and you reached the Red Sea, the Egyptians pursued them with chariots and horsemen as far as the Red Sea.
A lawe mai no au i ko oukou poe makua, mai Aigupita mai; a hele mai lakou e hiki i ke kai, a hahai mai ka poe Aigupita mahope o ko oukou poe makua, me na halekaa, a me ko lakou poe hololio, a hiki i ke Kaiula.
7 So your fathers cried out to the LORD, and He put darkness between you and the Egyptians, over whom He brought the sea and engulfed them. Your very eyes saw what I did to the Egyptians. Then you lived in the wilderness for a long time.
A kahea lakou ia Iehova, alaila, kau oia i ka poeleele mawaena o oukou a me ko Aigupita, hoopopoi mai oia i ke kai, a uhi mai maluna o lakou. Pela no i ike ai ko oukou mau maka i na mea a pau a'u i hana'i i ko Aigupita: a ua noho oukou ma ka waonahele, i na la he nui loa.
8 Later, I brought you to the land of the Amorites who lived beyond the Jordan. They fought against you, but I delivered them into your hand, that you should possess their land when I destroyed them before you.
A ua alakai mai nei au ia oukou i ka aina o ka Amora, ka poe i noho ma kela kapa o Ioredane, a kaua mai lakou ia oukou; aka, haawi no wau ia lakou iloko o ko oukou mau lima, a noho oukou ma ko lakou aina; a luku aku la au ia lakou imua o oukou.
9 Then Balak son of Zippor, the king of Moab, set out to fight against Israel. He sent for Balaam son of Beor to curse you,
Alaila ku iluna o Balaka, ke keiki a Zipora, o ke alii o Moaba, a kaua mai oia i ka Iseraela, a hoouna aku la oia, a kahea aku la ia Balaama, i ke keiki a Beora e olelo hoino ia oukou.
10 but I would not listen to Balaam. So he blessed you again and again, and I delivered you from his hand.
Aka, aole au i makemake e hoolohe ia Balaama; no ia mea, hoomaikai mai oia ia oukou, a hoopakele au ia oukou, mai kona lima aku.
11 After this, you crossed the Jordan and came to Jericho. The people of Jericho fought against you, as did the Amorites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites, and Jebusites, and I delivered them into your hand.
A hele mai oukou, maluna mai o Ioredane, a hiki i Ieriko; a kaua mai ka poe noho ma Ieriko ia oukou, a me ka Amora, a me ka Pereza, a me ko Kanaana: a me ka Heta, a me ka Giregasa, a me ka Heva, a me ka Iebusa; a haawi au ia lakou i ko oukou mau lima.
12 I sent the hornet ahead of you, and it drove out the two Amorite kings before you, but not by your own sword or bow.
A hoouna au imua o oukou i na nalohopeeha, a kipaku aku la au ia lakou, mai ko oukou alo aku, i na'lii elua o ka Amora; aole na ka oukou pahikaua, aole no hoi na ka oukou kakaka.
13 So I gave you a land on which you did not toil and cities that you did not build, and now you live in them and eat from vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant.’
A haawi au ia oukou i ka aina nona oukou i hooluhi ole ai, a me na kulanakauhale i kukulu ole ia'i e oukou, a ke noho nei oukou malaila; a ke ai nei oukou i kona malawaina, a me na mala oliva a oukou i kanu ole ai.
14 Now, therefore, fear the LORD and serve Him in sincerity and truth; cast aside the gods your fathers served beyond the Euphrates and in Egypt, and serve the LORD.
Ano la, e makau oukou ia Iehova, a e malama ia ia, me ka manao maikai, a me ka oiaio; a e haalele oukou i na akua a ko oukou mau makua i malama'i, ma kela kapa aku o ka muliwai, a ma Aigupita; a e malama oukou ia Iehova.
15 But if it is unpleasing in your sight to serve the LORD, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living. As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD!”
A ina he mea ino i ko oukou manao ke malama ia Iehova, e koho oukou i keia la i ka oukou mea e malama aku ai; i na'kua paha a ko oukou poe kupuna i malama'i ma kela kapa aku o ka muliwai, i na'kua paha o ka Amora, no lakou no ka aina e noho nei oukou: aka, owau, a me ko ka hale o'u, e malama makou ia Iehova.
16 The people replied, “Far be it from us to forsake the LORD to serve other gods!
Alaila, olelo aku la na kanaka, i mai la, Aole loa makou e haalele ia Iehova, a e malama i na akua e;
17 For the LORD our God brought us and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery, and performed these great signs before our eyes. He also protected us throughout our journey and among all the nations through which we traveled.
No ka mea, o Iehova, ko kakou Akua, oia no ka mea nana i lawe mai ia kakou, a me ko kakou poe makua mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, mailoko mai hoi o ka hale hooluhi; ka mea nana i hana i na mea nui imua o ko kakou mau maka, a malama mai oia ia kakou ma ke alanui a pau a kakou i hele mai ai, a mawaena o na kanaka a pau ma kahi a kakou i hele ai.
18 And the LORD drove out before us all the nations, including the Amorites who lived in the land. We too will serve the LORD, because He is our God!”
A na Iehova no i kipaku aku, mai ko kakou alo aku i na kanaka a pau, i ka Amora, i noho i ka aina; ano la e malama kakou ia Iehova, no ka mea, oia no ko kakou Akua.
19 But Joshua said to the people, “You are not able to serve the LORD, for He is a holy God; He is a jealous God; He will not forgive your rebellion or your sins.
A olelo mai la o Iosua i na kanaka, Aole hiki ia oukou ke malama ia Iehova, no ka mea, he Akua ihiihi oia, he Akua lili no hoi; aole e kala mai oia i ko oukou hala, a me ko oukou hewa.
20 If you forsake the LORD and serve foreign gods, He will turn and bring disaster on you and consume you, even after He has been good to you.”
No ka mea, ina e haalele oukou ia Iehova, a e malama i na'kua o, alaila e huli oia a e hoino mai oia ia oukou, a e hoopau oia ia oukou mahope iho o kona lokomaikai ana mai ia oukou.
21 “No!” replied the people. “We will serve the LORD!”
Alaila, olelo aku la na kanaka ia Iosua, Aole loa pela, no ka mea, e malama aku no makou ia Iehova.
22 Then Joshua told them, “You are witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen to serve the LORD.” “We are witnesses!” they said.
Olelo mai la o Iosua i na kanaka, He poe hoike oukou no oukou iho, ua koho oukou ia Iehova no oukou, e malama aku ia ia. Olelo aku la lakou, He poe hoike no makou.
23 “Now, therefore,” he said, “get rid of the foreign gods among you and incline your hearts to the LORD, the God of Israel.”
Ano la, e kipaku oukou i na akua e, mai ko oukou alo aku, a e hoopili oukou me ko oukou naau ia Iehova i ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
24 So the people said to Joshua, “We will serve the LORD our God and obey His voice.”
Olelo aku la na kanaka ia Iosua, O Iehova, o ko kakou Akua, o ka makou ia e malama aku ai, a o kona leo ka makou e hoolohe aku ai.
25 On that day Joshua made a covenant for the people, and there at Shechem he established for them a statute and ordinance.
A hana iho la o Iosua i berita me na kanaka i kela la, a waiho oia no lakou i ke kanawai a me ke kapu ma Sekema.
26 Joshua recorded these things in the Book of the Law of God. Then he took a large stone and set it up there under the oak that was near the sanctuary of the LORD.
A kakau iho la o Iosua i keia mau olelo maloko o ka buke o ke kanawai o ke Akua, a lawe no hoi oia i pohaku nui, a kukulu iho la i ua pohaku la malaila, ma ka laau e kokoke ana i ka halelewa o Iehova.
27 And Joshua said to all the people, “You see this stone. It will be a witness against us, for it has heard all the words the LORD has spoken to us, and it will be a witness against you if you ever deny your God.”
Olelo aku la o Iosua i na kanaka a pau, Eia hoi keia pohaku, oia ko kakou mea hoike; no ka mea, ua lohe ia mea i na olelo a pau a Iehova, ana i kauoha mai ai ia kakou; a he mea hoike no ia no oukou, o hoole oukou i ke Akua.
28 Then Joshua sent the people away, each to his own inheritance.
A hookuu aku la o Iosua i ka poe kanaka, i kela kanaka i keia kanaka i kona aina.
29 Some time later, Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died at the age of 110.
Mahope iho o keia mau mea, make iho la o Iosua, ke keiki a Nuna, ke kauwa a Iehova, a o kona mau la a pau, hookahi ia haneri makahiki a me ka umi keu.
30 And they buried him in the land of his inheritance, at Timnath-serah in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
A kanu iho la lakou ia ia ma ke kihi o kona aina, ma Timenasera, ma ka puu o Eperaima, ma ke kukulu akau o ka puu o Gaasa.
31 Israel had served the LORD throughout the days of Joshua and of the elders who outlived him and who had experienced all the works that the LORD had done for Israel.
A malama no ka Iseraela ia Iehova i na la a pau o Iosua, a i na la a pau o na lunakahiko, i ola mahope iho o Iosua, ka poe i ike i na mea a pau a Iehova i hana mai ai i ka Iseraela.
32 And the bones of Joseph, which the Israelites had brought up out of Egypt, were buried at Shechem in the plot of land that Jacob had purchased from the sons of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred pieces of silver. So it became an inheritance for Joseph’s descendants.
A o na iwi o Iosepa a na mamo a Iseraela i lawe mai ai, mai Aigupita mai, kanu iho la lakou ia mea ma Sekema, i kahi ma ke kula a Iakoba i kuai ai me na keiki a Hamora, ka makua o Sekema, i na moni hookahi haneri; a ili mai no ia no na keiki a Iosepa.
33 Eleazar son of Aaron also died, and they buried him at Gibeah, which had been given to his son Phinehas in the hill country of Ephraim.
A make o Eleazara ke keiki a Aarona; a kanu iho la lakou ia ia ma ka puu o Pinehasa o kana keiki, i haawiia mai nona ma ka mauna o Eperaima.
