< Joshua 1 >

1 And it came to pass after the death of Moses the servant of Jehovah, that Jehovah spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' attendant, saying,
Ie añe te nihomake t’i Mosè mpitoro’ Iehovà, le nitsara am’ Iehosoa ana’ i None, mpitoro’ i Mosè, t’Iehovà, ami’ty hoe:
2 Moses my servant is dead; and now, rise up, go over this Jordan, thou and all this people, into the land which I give unto them, to the children of Israel.
Fa vilasy t’i Mosè mpitoroko; aa le miongaha, itsaho Iardeney, ihe naho ze hene ondaty retiañe, mb’ an-tane atoloko iareo, toe ho amo ana’ Israeleo;
3 Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread have I given to you, as I said unto Moses.
fa natoloko anahareo ze toetse lian-delam-pandia’ areo, ty amy asako amy Mosèy.
4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon to the great river, the river Euphrates, the whole land of the Hittites, to the great sea, toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border.
Mifototse am-patrambey añe miharo amy Lebanone etia, pak’ amy saka beiy, i Peratey, naho ze hene tanen-te-Kète, pak’ amy Riake beiy, mb’ amy firoña’ i àndroy añey ty ho efe-tane’ areo.
5 None shall be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so will I be with thee; I will not leave thee, neither will I forsake thee.
Leo raike t’indaty tsy hiongake hiatrek’ azo amo hene andro hiveloma’oo; manahake ty nindrezako amy Mosè ty hindrezako ama’o; tsy hilesa ama’o iraho, tsy haforintseko ka.
6 Be strong and courageous, for thou shalt cause this people to inherit the land which I have sworn unto their fathers to give them.
Mihafatrara vaho mahasibeha; fa ihe ty hampandova ondaty retoañe i tane nifantàko aman-droae’ iareo hatoloko iareoy.
7 Only be strong and very courageous, that thou mayest take heed to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded thee. Turn not from it to the right or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.
Aa le mihaozara naho mahavania, hañambeñe naho hañorike i Tsara iaby linili’ i Mosè mpitoroko azoy; ko mitolike mb’ am-pitàn-kavana ndra havia, soa te hiraorao ndra aia’ aia ty homba’o.
8 This book of the law shall not depart from thy mouth; and thou shalt meditate upon it day and night, that thou mayest take heed to do according to all that is written therein; for then shalt thou have good success in thy ways, and then shalt thou prosper.
Tsy hienga am-palie’o ty Boke Hake toy, ie haereñere’o handro naho haleñe, hañambeñe naho hanao ze hene misokitse ao; le hiraorao o sata’oo, vaho haharongatse.
9 Have I not commanded thee: Be strong and courageous? Be not afraid, neither be dismayed; for Jehovah thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
Aa vaho tsy liniliko hao? Mihafatrara naho mahasibeha; ko hemban-drehe ko miroreke: fa ama’o t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ndra aia’aia ty homba’o.
10 And Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
Aa le linili’ Iehosoa o mpiaolo’ ondatio ami’ty hoe:
11 Go through the midst of the camp, and command the people, saying, Prepare yourselves victuals, for in three days ye shall pass over this Jordan, that ye may enter in to take possession of the land which Jehovah your God giveth you to possess it.
Mirangà anteñateña’ i tobey mb’eo le afantoho ondatio ami’ty hoe: Maña­lankaña fivatiañe, fa hitsake Iardeney nahareo añate’ ty telo andro, himoak’ amy taney, hitavañe ze natolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo ho fanañañe.
12 And to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to half the tribe of Manasseh spoke Joshua, saying,
Le nisaontsy amo nte-Reobeneo naho amo nte-Gadeo naho amo vakin-te Menasèo t’Iehosoa ami’ty hoe:
13 Remember the word that Moses the servant of Jehovah commanded you, saying, Jehovah your God has given you rest and has given you this land.
Tiahio i tsara linili’ i Mosè mpitoro’ Iehovà anahareoy, ami’ty hoe: Manolotse fitofàñe ama’ areo t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo vaho hatolo’e ama’ areo o tane atoio.
14 Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle shall abide in the land that Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan, but ye, all the valiant men, shall go over in array before your brethren and help them,
Hitobok’ an-tane natolo’ i Mosè anahareo alafe’ Iardeney atoy o vali’ areoo naho o keleia’ areoo naho o añombe’ areoo, f’ie hitsak’ aolo’ o rahalahi’ areoo reke-pialiañe, songa fanalolahy maozatse hañolo­rañe iareo;
15 until Jehovah give your brethren rest as to you, and they also take possession of the land which Jehovah your God giveth them; then shall ye return into the land of your possession and possess it, which Moses the servant of Jehovah gave you on this side of the Jordan toward the sun-rising.
ampara’ te hampitofà’ Iehovà o rahalahi’ areoo, manahake ty nanoa’e anahareo, ie fa tinava’ iareo ka i tane nitolora’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo; le himpoly an-tane fanaña’ areo atoa nahareo vaho ho tavane’ areo i natolo’ i Mosè mpitoro’ Iehovà anahareo alafe’ Iardeney atoa mb’am-panjirihan’ andro añe.
16 And they answered Joshua, saying, All that thou hast commanded us will we do, and whither thou shalt send us will we go.
Tinoi’ iareo ami’ty hoe t’Iehosoa: Hene hanoe’ay ze nandilia’o anay vaho hañaveloa’ay ndra aia aia ty añiraha’o.
17 According as we hearkened to Moses in all things, so will we hearken to thee; only may Jehovah thy God be with thee as he was with Moses.
Manahake ty nañaoña’ay amy Mosè amy ze he’e, ty hañaoña’ay azo naho indreza’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o hambañe amy nindreza’e amy Mo­sèy.
18 Every one that is rebellious against thy commandment and hearkeneth not to thy words in everything that thou commandest us, shall be put to death. Only be strong and courageous.
Aa ndra ia’ia ty hiola amy an­dilia’oy, tsy hañaoñe ze hene saontsy amantoha’o aze, le havetrake, f’ihe mihaozara vaho mahasibeha.
