< Joshua 4 >

1 When the whole nation had finished crossing the Jordan, the LORD said to Joshua,
Hanki maka Israeli vahe'mo'za Jodani tima takahe vagaretazageno, Ra Anumzamo'a Josuana amanage huno asami'ne,
2 “Choose twelve men from among the people, one from each tribe,
Israeli vahepintira 12fu'a vahe zamagi hinke'za eho. Hagi mago'mago naga nofipintira magoke etere hanagenka,
3 and command them: ‘Take up for yourselves twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan where the priests were standing, carry them with you, and set them down in the place where you spend the night.’”
Jodani timofo amu'nompima pristi vahe'mo'zama zamagama re'za oti'nareti 12fu'a zamente zamente havea ome erita vuta, seli noma kita meni kenage'ma masesaza kumate omenteho hunka zamasamio.
4 So Joshua summoned the twelve men he had appointed from the Israelites, one from each tribe,
Higeno Josua'a Israeli naga nofipinti mago mago zamagi hutere huno 12fu'a vahe'ma huhampri'nea nagara kehige'za e'naze.
5 and said to them, “Cross over before the ark of the LORD your God into the middle of the Jordan. Each of you is to take a stone upon his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of Israel,
Hagi Josua'a amanage huno zamasami'ne, Ete Jodani timpi uramita Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisima eri'za oti'naza pristi vahe'mokizmi zamagiafinti 12fu'a naga'motma naga nofitamire huhampritere hutma mago'mago havea atita tamafunte erita eho.
6 to serve as a sign among you. In the future, when your children ask, ‘What do these stones mean to you?’
Hanki henkama tamagripinti'ma fore'ma hanaza mofavremo'za ana haveramima nege'za, ama avame'zana nagafare me'ne? hu'za tamantahigesageta,
7 you are to tell them, ‘The waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD. When it crossed the Jordan, the waters were cut off.’ Therefore these stones will be a memorial to the Israelites forever.”
tamagra amanage hutma zamasamiho, Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisima eri'za Jodani timpima azageno'ma tanege'zama hagege mopare'ma takahe'nazagu, Israeli vahe'mo'zama nege'za antahimi vava hanaza avame'za me'ne huta zmasamigahaze.
8 Thus the Israelites did as Joshua had commanded them. They took up twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan, one for each tribe of Israel, just as the LORD had told Joshua; and they carried them to the camp, where they set them down.
Hanki Ra Anumzamo'ma Josua'ma asami'nea kante ante'za, Jodani timofo amu'nompinti Israeli naga'nofite huhampri'za mago'mago have atitere hu'za ana maka 12fu'a havea eri'za, vu'za kuma'ma ome ante'za masazare anante ome ante'naze.
9 Joshua also set up twelve stones in the middle of the Jordan, in the place where the priests who carried the ark of the covenant stood. And the stones are there to this day.
Hanki Josua'a agranena 12fu'a have erino Jodani timofo amu'nompima Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisima pristi vahe'mo'zama eri'ne'zama oti'nazare magopi ante atru higeno meno eno ama knarera ehanati'ne.
10 Now the priests who carried the ark remained standing in the middle of the Jordan until the people had completed everything the LORD had commanded Joshua to tell them, just as Moses had directed Joshua. The people hurried across,
Hagi Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisima eri'naza pristi vahe'mo'za Jodani timofo amu'nompi oti'nazageno, ana maka zama Ra Anumzamo'ene Mosese'enema Josuama asamike, huo huke hunte'na'a zana, ana maka huvagare'naze. Hige'za Israeli naga'mo'za ame'ama hu'za Jodani tina takahe'za kantu kaziga vu'naze.
11 and after everyone had finished crossing, the priests with the ark of the LORD crossed in the sight of the people.
Hanki maka Israeli vahe'mo'za Jodani tima takahe'za kama kazigama eme oti vagarazage'za, timpintira Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisia pristi naga'mo'za eri'za ome zamagatere'za zamavuga evu oti'naze.
12 The Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh crossed over before the Israelites, armed for battle as Moses had instructed them.
Hagi Rubeni naga'ma Gati naga'ma Manase naga'ma amu'nompinti refko hu'naza naga'mo'zane ha'ma huga vahe'amozage Israeli naga'mokizmi zamavuga ha'zana tro tra hu'za, Mosese'ma zamasami'nea kante ante'za ugote'za vu'naze.
13 About 40,000 troops armed for battle crossed over before the LORD into the plains of Jericho.
Anampina 40 tauseni'a naza ha'ma huga vahera Ra Anumzamofo avurera vu'za, Jeriko tavaonte mago agupo me'nefi vu'naze.
14 On that day the LORD exalted Joshua in the sight of all Israel, and they revered him all the days of his life, just as they had revered Moses.
Ana knazupa Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli vahe zamavufi Josuana azeri ante'ama hige'za, Mosesenkema antahimi'nazaza hu'za Josu'ana ke'a antahimi'naze.
15 Then the LORD said to Joshua,
Anante Ra Anumzamo'a Josuana amanage huno asami'ne,
16 “Command the priests who carry the ark of the Testimony to come up from the Jordan.”
Zamasamige'za huhagerafi huvempage vogisima e'neri'za pristi vahe'mo'za Jodani timpintira atre'za ankenarega emareriho.
17 So Joshua commanded the priests, “Come up from the Jordan.”
Higeno Josua'a pristi nagara huzamanteno, Jodani timpintira atreta ankenarega atiramita eho.
18 When the priests carrying the ark of the covenant of the LORD came up out of the Jordan and their feet touched the dry land, the waters of the Jordan returned to their course and overflowed all the banks as before.
Anagema hige'za Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisima eri'za oti'naza pristi vahe'mo'za, Jodani timofo amu'nompintira atre'za ankenarega e'za, timpinti'ma zamagiama erisga hu'za mopare'ma razageno'a, Jodani timo'a ete hageno ko'ma hu'neaza huno evu'ne.
19 On the tenth day of the first month the people went up from the Jordan and camped at Gilgal on the eastern border of Jericho.
Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za ese ikamofona 10ni knazupa Jodani tina takamahe'za kantu kazigama vute'za, Jeriko kuma'mofona zage hanati kaziga Gilgalie nehazare ome kumara ante'naze.
20 And there at Gilgal Joshua set up the twelve stones they had taken from the Jordan.
Hanki 12fu'a havema Jodani timpinti'ma ati'zama eri'za e'naza haveramina, Gilgalie nehazare ana haveramina Josua'a magopi eri ante atru hu'ne.
21 Then Joshua said to the Israelites, “In the future, when your children ask their fathers, ‘What is the meaning of these stones?’
Ana nehuno Israeli vahe'mokizmia amanage huno zamasami'ne, henkama fore'ma hanaza mofavremo'zama zamafahe'ima zamantahige'zma, ama haveramina nagafare mane'ne? hu'zama zamantahigesage'za,
22 you are to tell them, ‘Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.’
amanage hu'za zamasamiho, Israeli vahe'mo'za Jodani timo'ma hihima huno marerigeno mopamo hagegema hu'nege'za takahe'za e'naza zanku negeta antahimi avame'za me'ne hu'za zmasamigahaze.
23 For the LORD your God dried up the waters of the Jordan before you until you had crossed over, just as He did to the Red Sea, which He dried up before us until we had crossed over.
Na'ankure Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo Koranke Hagerima hu'neaza huno Jodani tina eri hagege higeta, hagege mopare takaheta evagare'none.
24 He did this so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the LORD is mighty, and so that you may always fear the LORD your God.”
E'ina hu'negu ama mopafi maka vahe'mo'zama ke'za antahi'zama hanazana, Ra Anumzamofo azamo'a hanavenentake hu'ne nehanageta, tamagra Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamofonke maka zupa korora huntevava hiho.
