Joshua 22
1 Then Joshua called together the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse,
Ary tamin’ izay dia nantsoin’ i Josoa ny Robenita sy ny Gadita sy ny antsasaky ny firenen’ i Manase,
2 and said to them, Ye have heard all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, and ye have hearkened to my voice in all that he commanded you.
ka hoy izy taminy: Hianareo efa nitandrina izay rehetra nandidian’ i Mosesy mpanompon’ i Jehovah anareo sady efa nihaino ny feoko koa tamin izay rehetra nandidiako anareo;
3 Ye have not deserted your brethren these many days: until this day ye have kept the commandment of the Lord your God.
tsy nilaozanareo ny rahalahinareo hatramin’ izany andro maro izany ka mandraka androany fa notandremanareo ny lalàna nasain’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo notandremanareo.
4 And now the Lord our God has given our brethren rest, as he told them: now then return and depart to your homes, and to the land of your possession, which Moses gave you on the other side Jordan.
Ary ankehitriny dia efa nomen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo fitsaharana ny rahalahinareo, araka izay nolazainy taminy; koa modia ankehitriny, ka mankanesa any amin’ ny lainareo avy, ho any amin’ ny taninareo, izay nomen’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ i Jehovah, anareo any an-dafin’ i Jordana.
5 But take great heed to do the commands and the law, which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you to do; to love the Lord our God, to walk in all his ways, to keep his commands, and to cleave to him, and serve him with all your mind, and with all your soul.
Kanefa mitandrema tsara mba hanaraka ny didy sy ny lalàna izay nandidian’ i Mosesy, mpanompon’ i Jehovah, anareo, hitiavanareo an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo sy handehananareo amin’ ny lalany rehetra sy hitandremanareo ny didiny sy hifikiranareo aminy ary hanompoanareo Azy amin’ ny fonareo rehetra sy ny fanahinareo rehetra.
6 And Joshua blessed them, and dismissed them; and they went to their homes.
Dia nitso-drano azy Josoa ka nampody azy; dia lasa nankany amin’ ny lainy avy izy.
7 And to [one] half the tribe of Manasse Moses gave a portion in the land of Basan, and to [the other] half Joshua gave a portion with his brethren on the other side of Jordan westward: and when Joshua sent them away to their homes, then he blessed them.
Ary ny antsasaky ny firenen’ i Manase efa nomen’ i Mosesy lova tany Basana; fa ny antsasany kosa efa nomen’ i Josoa teo amin’ ny rahalahiny etỳ an-dafy andrefan’ i Jordana. Ary raha nampodin’ i Josoa ho any amin’ ny lainy koa ireo, dia notsofiny rano izy
8 And they departed with much wealth to their houses, and they divided the spoil of their enemies with their brethren; very much cattle, and silver, and gold, and iron, and much raiment.
ka nilazany hoe: Modia ho any amin’ ny lainareo avy ianareo, mitondra harena be sy omby aman’ ondry be indrindra sy volafotsy sy volamena sy varahina sy vy ary fitafiana be dia be; ary iombony amin’ ny rahalahinareo ny babo azo tamin’ ny fahavalonareo.
9 So the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse, departed from the children of Israel in Selo in the land of Chanaan, to go away into Galaad, into the land of their possession, which they inherited by the command of the Lord, by the hand of Moses.
Dia nody ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada ary ny antsasaky ny firenen’ i Manase ka nandao ny Zanak’ Isiraely tao Silo, izay ao amin’ ny tany Kanana, hankany amin’ ny tany Gileada ho any amin’ ny zara-taniny, izay azony araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah nasainy nolazain’ i Mosesy.
10 And they came to Galaad of Jordan, which is in the land of Chanaan: and the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse built there an altar by Jordan, a great altar to look at.
Ary raha tonga teo amoron’ i Jordana eo amin’ ny tany Kanana ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada ary ny antsasaky ny firenen’ i Manase, dia nanorina alitara teo izy, ary lehibe ny fijery izany alitara izany.
11 And the children of Israel heard say, Behold, the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse have built an altar at the borders of the land of Chanaan at Galaad of Jordan, on the opposite side to the children of Israel.
Ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely nahare hoe: Indreo, ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada ary ny antsasaky ny firenen’ i Manase efa nanorina alitara an-tsisin’ ny tany Kanana, eo amoron’ i Jordana, anatin’ ny tanin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
12 And all the children of Israel gathered together to Selo, so as to go up and fight against them.
Ary nony ren’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely izany, dia niangona tao Silo ny fiangonana, dia ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra, mba hiakatra hiady aminy.
13 And the children of Israel sent to the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and to the sons of the half tribe of Manasse into the land of Galaad, both Phinees the son of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest,
Dia naniraka an’ i Finehasa, zanak’ i Eleazara mpisorona, ny Zanak’ Isiraely ho any amin’ ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada ary ny antsasaky ny firenen’ i Manase, any amin’ ny tany Gileada,
14 and ten of the chiefs with him; [there was] one chief of every household out of all the tribes of Israel; (the heads of families are the captains of thousands in Israel.)
sy loholona folo lahy koa niaraka taminy, dia loholona iray isam-pirenena tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra: samy lohan’ ny fianakaviany tamin’ ny arivon’ ny Isiraely ireo.
15 And they came to the sons of Ruben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasse into the land of Galaad; and they spoke to them, saying,
Dia tonga tany amin’ ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada ary ny antsasaky ny firenen’ i Manase tany amin’ ny tany Gileada ireo ka niteny taminy hoe:
16 Thus says the whole congregation of the Lord, What [is] this transgression that ye have transgressed before the God of Israel, to turn away today from the Lord, in that ye have built for yourselves an altar, so that ye should be apostates from the Lord?
Izao no lazain’ ny fiangonan’ i Jehovah rehetra: Inona izato fahotana nataonareo amin’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, no niala tamin’ ny fanarahana an’ i Jehovah ianareo androany tamin’ ny nanorenanareo alitara ka miodina amin i Jehovah ankehitriny?
17 Is the sin of Phogor too little for you, whereas we have not been cleansed from it until this day, though there was a plague among the congregation of the Lord?
Zavatra kely loatra amintsika va ilay heloka ny amin’ i Peora, izay tsy mbola nahadiovantsika ny tenantsika ho afaka amin’ izany mandraka androany na dia efa nisy aza ilay areti-mandringana tamin’ ny fiangonan’ i Jehovah,
18 And ye have this day revolted from the Lord; and it shall come to pass if ye revolt this day from the Lord, that to-morrow there shall be wrath upon all Israel.
no dia mihodìna miala amin’ ny fanarahana an’ i Jehovah ianareo anio? Raha miodina amin’ i Jehovah ianareo anio, dia ho tezitra amin’ ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, Izy rahampitso.
19 And now if the land of your possession [be too] little, cross over to the land of the possession of the Lord, where the tabernacle of the Lord dwells, and receive ye an inheritance among us; and do not become apostates from God, neither do ye apostatize from the Lord, because of your having built an altar apart from the altar of the Lord our God.
Kanefa raha maloto ny taninareo, dia mità ho any amin’ ny tanin’ i Jehovah, izay itoeran’ ny tabernakelin’ i Jehovah, ka any aminay maka fonenana; fa aza miodina amin’ i Jehovah, na miodina aminay, amin’ ny anorenanareo alitara afa-tsy ny alitaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika.
20 Lo! did not Achar the [son] of Zara commit a trespass [taking] of the accursed thing, and there was wrath on the whole congregation of Israel? and he himself died alone in his own sin.
Tsy nandika ny didy va Akana, zanak’ i Zera, tamin’ ny zavatra voaozona, ka nisy fahatezerana nahatratra ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra? Ary tsy io lehilahy irery io ihany no maty tamin’ izany helony izany.
21 And the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse answered, and spoke to the captains of the thousands of Israel, saying,
Dia namaly ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada ary ny antsasaky ny firenen’ i Manase ka nanao tamin’ ny mpifehy arivo tamin’ ny Isiraely hoe:
22 God [even] God is the Lord, and God [even] God himself knows, and Israel he shall know; if we have transgressed before the Lord by apostasy, let him not deliver us this day.
Andriamanitra Andriananahary, dia Jehovah eny Andriamanitra Andriananahary, dia Jehovah, Izy no mahalala, ary ny Isiraely hahalala koa; raha fiodinana na fahadisoana amin’ i Jehovah (aza mba mamonjy anay akory Hianao anio),
23 And if we have built to ourselves an altar, so as to apostatize from the Lord our God, so as to offer upon it a sacrifice of whole-burnt-offerings, so as to offer upon it a sacrifice of peace-offering, —the Lord shall require it.
raha izany no nanorenanay alitara, mba hiala amin’ ny fanarahana an’ i Jehovah, na hanatitra fanatitra dorana, na fanatitra hohanina, na fanati-pihavanana, eo amboniny dia aoka Jehovah no hanadina;
24 But we have done this for the sake of precaution [concerning this] thing, saying, Lest hereafter your sons should say to our sons, What have ye to do with the Lord God of Israel?
fa tahotra tokoa no anton’ ny nanaovanay izao; fa hoy izahay: Rahatrizay dia hanontany ny taranakay ny taranakareo hoe: Moa mifaninona akory ianareo sy Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely?
25 Whereas the Lord has set boundaries between us and you, even Jordan, and ye have no portion in the Lord: so your sons shall alienate our sons, that they should not worship the Lord.
fa Jordana no nataon’ i Jehovah ho faritra eo anelanelantsika, ry taranak’ i Robena sy Gada, ka tsy manana anjara amin’ i Jehovah ianareo; ka dia hampitsaharan’ ny taranakareo tsy hatahotra an’ i Jehovah ny taranakay,
26 And we gave orders to do thus, to build this altar, not for burnt-offerings, nor for meat-offerings;
Dia hoy izahay: Aoka isika hanorina alitara ho antsika, tsy hanaterana fanatitra dorana anefa, na fanatitra hafa alatsa-drà,
27 but that this may be a witness between you and us, and between our posterity after us, that we may do service to the Lord before him, with our burnt-offerings and our meat-offerings and our peace-offerings: so your sons shall not say to our sons, hereafter, Ye have no portion in the Lord.
fa mba ho vavolombelona ho amintsika sy ny taranatsika mandimby antsika, hanaovanay ny fanompoana an’ i Jehovah eo anatrehany amin’ ny hanaterana fanatitra dorana sy fanatitra hafa alatsa-drà ary fanati-pihavanana mba tsy holazain’ ny taranakareo amin’ ny taranakay rahatrizay hoe: Tsy manana anjara amin’ i Jehovah ianareo.
28 And we said, If ever it should come to pass that they should speak [so] to us, or to our posterity hereafter; then shall they say, Behold the likeness of the altar of the Lord, which our fathers made, not for the sake of burnt-offerings, nor for the sake of meat-offerings, but it is a witness between you and us, and between our sons.
Ary hoy izahay: Raha tàhiny lazainy aminay na ny taranakay izany rahatrizay, dia hataonay hoe: Jereo ny endriky ny alitaran’ i Jehovah, izay nataon’ ny razanay, tsy hanaterana fanatitra, dorana anefa na fanatitra hafa alatsa-drà, fa mba ho vavolombelona ho amintsika roa tonta.
29 Far be it from us therefore that we should turn away from the Lord this day so as to apostatize from the Lord, so as that we should build an altar for burnt-offerings, and for peace-offerings, besides the altar of the Lord which is before his tabernacle.
Sanatria aminay raha hiodina amin’ i Jehovah ka hiala anio amin’ ny fanarahana an’ i Jehovah hanorina alitara hanaterana fanatitra dorana, na fanatitra hohanina, na fanatitra hafa alatsa-drà, afa-tsy ny alitaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika, izay eo anoloan’ ny tabernakeliny.
30 And Phinees the priest and all the chiefs of the congregation of Israel who were with him heard the words which the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse spoke; and it pleased them.
Ary rehefa ren’ i Finehasa mpisorona sy ny lohan’ ny fiangonana, dia ny mpifehy arivo tamin’ ny Isiraely, izay niaraka taminy, ny teny izay nolazain’ ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada ary ny taranak’ i Manase, dia sitrany izany.
31 And Phinees the priest said to the sons of Ruben, and to the sons of Gad, and to the half of the tribe of Manasse, To-day we know that the Lord [is] with us, because ye have not trespassed grievously against the Lord, and because ye have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the Lord.
Ary hoy Finehasa, zanak’ i Eleazara mpisorona, tamin’ ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada ary ny taranak’ i Manase: Fantatray anio fa eto amintsika Jehovah, satria tsy nanao izany fahadisoana izany tamin’ i Jehovah ianareo; ary amin’ izany dia efa namonjy ny Zanak’ Isiraely tamin’ ny tànan’ i Jehovah ianareo.
32 So Phinees the priest and the princes departed from the children of Ruben, and from the children of Gad, and from the half tribe of Manasse out of Galaad into the land of Chanaan to the children of Israel; and reported the words to them.
Ary Finehasa, zanak’ i Eleazara mpisorona, sy ny loholona dia niverina nandao ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada tany amin’ ny tany Gileada ka nankany amin’ ny tany Kanana ho any amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ary nitondra valin-teny ho any aminy.
33 And it pleased the children of Israel; and they spoke to the children of Israel, and blessed the God of the children of Israel, and told them to go up no more to war against the others to destroy the land of the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse: so they dwelt upon it.
Ary sitraky ny zanak’ Isiraely izany, dia nisaotra an’ Andriamanitra ny Zanak’ Isiraely ka tsy nihevitra hiakatra hiady aminy intsony handrava ny tany izay nonenan’ ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada.
34 And Joshua gave a name to the altar of the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse; and said, It is a testimony in the midst of them, that the Lord is their God.
Dia nasian’ ny taranak’ i Robena sy Gada anarana hoe Edy ilay alitara fa vavolombelona ho amintsika roa tonta io fa Jehovah no Andriamanitra.
