< Joshua 1 >
1 Now after the death of His servant Moses, the LORD spoke to Joshua son of Nun, Moses’ assistant, saying,
Bayan mutuwar Musa bawan Ubangiji, sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa ɗan Nun, mataimakin Musa,
2 “Moses My servant is dead. Now therefore arise, you and all these people, and cross over the Jordan into the land that I am giving to the children of Israel.
“Bawana Musa ya mutu. Yanzu sai ka tashi tare da mutanen nan duka, ku yi shirin ƙetare kogin Urdun zuwa cikin ƙasar da zan ba su Isra’ilawa.
3 I have given you every place where the sole of your foot will tread, just as I promised to Moses.
Zan ba ku duk ƙasar da za ku taka, kamar yadda na yi wa Musa alkawari.
4 Your territory shall extend from the wilderness and Lebanon to the great River Euphrates—all the land of the Hittites—and west as far as the Great Sea.
Ƙasar da ta kama daga hamada zuwa Lebanon, zuwa babban Kogin, wato, Kogin Yuferites, da dukan ƙasar Hittiyawa zuwa Bahar Rum, wajen yamma.
5 No one shall stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so will I be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.
Ba wanda zai yi tsayayya da kai dukan kwanakin ranka. Yadda na kasance tare da Musa, haka zan kasance tare da kai; ba zan taɓa rabuwa da kai ba; ba zan yashe ka ba.
6 Be strong and courageous, for you shall give these people the inheritance of the land that I swore to their fathers I would give them.
“Ka yi ƙarfin hali ka kuma kasance da rashin tsoro, gama kai za ka bi da mutanen nan har su karɓi ƙasar da na yi wa kakanninsu alkawari zan ba su.
7 Above all, be strong and very courageous. Be careful to observe all the law that My servant Moses commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right or to the left, so that you may prosper wherever you go.
Ka yi ƙarfin hali ka kuma kasance da rashin tsoro, ka yi lura fa, ka yi biyayya da dokokin da bawana Musa ya ba ka; kada ka kauce ga bin dokokin ko hagu ko dama, domin ka yi nasara a duk, inda za ka je.
8 This Book of the Law must not depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. For then you will prosper and succeed in all you do.
Kada ka bar Littafin Dokokin nan yă rabu da bakinka, sai dai ka yi ta tunani game da shi dare da rana, don ka lura, ka yi duk abin da aka rubuta a ciki, ta haka ne za ka yi nasara cikin duk abin da za ka yi.
9 Have I not commanded you to be strong and courageous? Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”
Ba ni na umarce ka ba? Ka yi ƙarfin hali ka kuma kasance da rashin tsoro. Kada ka ji tsoro; kada ka karaya, gama Ubangiji Allahnka zai kasance tare da kai duk inda za ka je.”
10 Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people:
Saboda haka sai Yoshuwa ya umarci shugabannin mutane,
11 “Go through the camp and tell the people, ‘Prepare your provisions, for within three days you will cross the Jordan to go in and take possession of the land that the LORD your God is giving you to possess.’”
“Ku ratsa cikin sansani, ku gaya wa mutane, ‘Ku shirya guzurinku. Nan da kwana uku za ku ƙetare Urdun a nan, don ku je ka mallaki ƙasar da Ubangiji Allahnku yake ba ku ta zama taku.’”
12 But to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joshua said,
Amma Yoshuwa ya ce wa mutanen Ruben, mutanen Gad da kuma rabin mutanen kabilar Manasse,
13 “Remember what Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you when he said, ‘The LORD your God will give you rest, and He will give you this land.’
“Ku tuna da umarnin da Musa bawan Ubangiji ya yi muku. ‘Ubangiji Allahnku ya ba ku hutawa, ya kuma ba ku wannan ƙasa.’
14 Your wives, your young children, and your livestock may remain in the land that Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan. But all your mighty men of valor must be armed for battle to cross over ahead of your brothers and help them,
Matanku, da yaranku, da kuma dabbobinku za su kasance a ƙasar da Musa ya ba ku a gabashin Urdun, amma dole mayaƙanku, su yi shirin yaƙi su haye, su yi gaba tare da’yan’uwanku, za ku taimaki’yan’uwanku
15 until the LORD gives them rest as He has done for you, and your brothers also possess the land that the LORD your God is giving them. Then you may return to the land of your inheritance and take possession of that which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the east side of the Jordan.”
har sai lokacin da Ubangiji ya ba su hutawa, kamar yadda ya yi muku, kuma har sai su ma sun ƙwace ƙasar da Ubangiji Allahnku ya yi alkawari zai ba su. Bayan haka ne za ku koma ku mallaki ƙasarku, wadda Musa bawan Ubangiji ya ba ku a gabashin Urdun.”
16 So they answered Joshua, “Everything you have commanded us we will do, and everywhere you send us we will go.
Sai suka amsa wa Yoshuwa suka ce, “Duk abin da ka ce mu yi, za mu yi. Duk inda kuma ka aike mu, za mu je.
17 Just as we obeyed Moses in all things, so we will obey you. And may the LORD your God be with you, as He was with Moses.
Kamar yadda muka yi wa Musa biyayya, haka za mu yi maka biyayya. Ubangiji Allahnka ya kasance tare da Musa.
18 Anyone who rebels against your order and does not obey your words, all that you command him, will be put to death. Above all, be strong and courageous!”
Duk wanda ya yi wa maganarka tawaye, ya ƙi yă yi biyayya da maganarka, ko da umarnin da ka ba shi, za a kashe shi. Ka dai ƙarfafa ka kuma yi ƙarfi hali!”
