Joshua 4
1 Once the entire nation had finished crossing the Jordan, the Lord told Joshua,
A PAU ka lahuikanaka i ka hele i kela kapa o Ioredane, alaila olelo mai la o Iehova ia Iosua, i mai la,
2 “Choose twelve men from the people, one per tribe,
E lawe oukou no oukou iho, i umi kanaka a me kumamalua, mailoko mai o ka poe kanaka, e pakahi ke kanaka i ka ohana hookahi.
3 and tell them, ‘Pick up twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan, from right where the priests are standing. Then carry them and set them down at the place where you will camp tonight.’”
A e kauoha aku ia lakou, penei, E lawe aku oukou, mailoko aku o Ioredane nei no kahi i ku ai na wawae o na kahuna, i na pohaku he umi a me kumamalua, a e lawe pu ia mau mea me oukou, a e waiho ma kahi a oukou e hoomoana'i i keia po.
4 So Joshua sent for the twelve men he had chosen, one from each tribe,
Hea aku la o Iosua i ka poe kanaka he umikumamalua, ana i hoomakaukau ai no na mamo a Iseraela, pakahi ke kanaka i ka ohana hookahi;
5 and told them, “Go back into the middle of the Jordan, right in front of the Ark of the Agreement of the Lord your God, and each of you pick up a stone and carry it on your shoulder, one for each of the tribes of Israel.
Olelo mai la o Iosua ia lakou, E hele ae oukou mamua o ka pahu o Iehova, o ko oukou Akua, maloko o Ioredane, a e lawe pakahi ke kanaka ma kona poohiwi i ka pohaku no oukou; e hoohalike i ka helu'na me na ohana o na mamo a Iseraela.
6 This will be a memorial among you so when your children one day ask, ‘What do these stones mean?’
I lilo keia i hoailona no oukou, i ka wa e ninau mai ai ka oukou poe keiki mahope aku nei, i ka i ana mai, He mea aha keia mau pohaku ia oukou?
7 you can tell them, ‘It's about the time the Jordan River stopped flowing when the Ark of the Lord's Agreement went across. When it crossed over the water stopped. These stones are a memorial to the people of Israel forever.’”
Alaila, e hai aku oukou ia lakou, Ua hookaawaleia na wai o Ioredane imua o ka pahuberita o Iehova, I ka wa i hele ai ia maloko o Ioredane, ua hookaawaleia na wai o Ioredane; a e lilo no keia mau pohaku i hoailona mau loa e hoomanao ai na mamo a Iseraela.
8 The people of Israel did as Joshua told them. The men picked up twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan as the Lord had instructed Joshua. They carried them to the place where they camped overnight and placed the stones there, one for each of the tribes of Israel.
Hana iho la na mamo a Iseraela pela, e like me ka Iosua i kauoha mai ai, a lawe lakou i umikumamalua pohaku, mailoko mai o Ioredane, me ka olelo a Iehova ia Iosua, e like hoi me ka helu ana o na ohana o na mamo a Iseraela, a lawe pu ae la me lakou a hiki i kahi a lakou i moe ai, a waiho iho la malaila.
9 Joshua also set up twelve stones in the middle of the Jordan right where the priests carrying the Ark of the Agreement had stood, and they are still there to this very day.
Kukulu iho la o Iosua i umikumamalua pohaku maloko o Ioredane, ma kahi i ku ai na kapuwai o na kahuna, o ka poe lawe i ka pahuberita. Malaila no i waihoia'i ia mau mea a hiki loa mai i keia la.
10 The priests carrying the Ark remained standing in the middle of the Jordan until everything was done just as the Lord had told the people to do, all that Moses had told Joshua to do. The people crossed over quickly.
A o na kahuna, ka poe i lawe i ka pahu, ku malie lakou maloko o Ioredane, a pau i ka hanaia na mea a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Iosua e olelo mai i kanaka, e like hoi me na mea a pau a Mose i kauoha mai ai ia Iosua. Wikiwiki iho la na kanaka, a hele aku la i kela kapa.
11 Once all the people had crossed over, they watched as the Ark of the Lord was carried across by the priests.
A pau na kanaka i ka hele ae, alaila, hele ae la no ka pahu o Iehova, a me na kahuna imua o na kanaka.
12 The armed men from the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and the half tribe of Manasseh crossed at the head of the people of Israel, as Moses had stipulated.
A o na mamo a Reubena, a me na mamo a Gada a me ka ohana hapa a Manase, hele makaukau lakou mamua o na mamo a Iseraela, e like me ka olelo a Mose ia lakou.
13 They numbered about 40,000 men, armed and ready for battle, crossed in the presence of the Lord to the plains of Jericho.
Hookahi kanaha tausani o ia puali makaukau i ke kaua, i hele ae imua o Iehova i ke kaua i na wahi papu o Ieriko.
14 On that day the Lord confirmed Joshua as great leader in the sight of all the Israelites, and they were in awe of him just as they had been in awe of Moses.
Ia la, hookiekie mai la o Iehova ia Iosua, i na maka o ka Iseraela a pau, a makau no lakou ia ia i na la a pau o kona ola ana, me lakou i makau ai ia Mose.
15 The Lord had told Joshua,
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Iosua, i mai la,
16 “Order the priests carrying the Ark of the Testimony to come up out of the Jordan.”
E kauoha ae oe i na kahuna, i ka poe i lawe i ka pahu kanawai, e pii lakou mailoko mai o Ioredane.
17 So Joshua told the priests, “Come up out of the Jordan.”
Kauoha mai la no o Iosua i na kahuna, i mai la, E pii mai oukou mailoko mai o Ioredane.
18 The priests came up out of the Jordan carrying the Ark of the Agreement, and as soon as their feet touched dry ground the waters of the Jordan returned to where they had been, overflowing its banks as before.
A i ka wa i pii aku ai na kahuna, ka poe i lawe i ka pahuberita o Iehova, mailoko mai o Ioredane, a pae na kapuwai o na kahuna ma kahi maloo, alaila, hoi hou na wai o Ioredane i ko lakou wahi, a kahe hou no maluna o kona kapa a pau, e like mamua.
19 The people went up from the Jordan and camped at Gilgal, to the east of Jericho, on the tenth day of the first month.
Pii aku la na kanaka a pau, mailoko mai o Ioredane, i ka la umi o ka malama mua, a hoomoana iho la lakou ma Gilegala ma ka palena o Ieriko, aia ma ka hikina.
20 Joshua set up at Gilgal the twelve stones that had been taken from the Jordan.
A o kela mau pohaku, he umikumamalua a lakou i lawe mai ai, mai Ioredane mai, kukulu iho la o Iosua ma Gilegala.
21 He told the Israelites, “When some day your children ask you their parents, ‘What do these stones mean?’
Olelo mai la ia i na mamo a Iseraela, i mai la, I ka wa e ninau mai ai ka oukou poe keiki i ko lakou makuakane mahope aku nei, i ka i ana mai, He mea aha keia mau pohaku?
22 you can explain to them, ‘This is where the Israelites crossed the Jordan on dry ground.’
Alaila, e hoike aku oukou i ka oukou poe keiki, me ka i ana aku, Ma kahi maloo i hele mai ai ka Iseraela, a hiki i keia aoao o Ioredane nei.
23 For the Lord your God made the Jordan River dry up right in front of you so you all could cross, just as the Lord your God did at the Red Sea which he dried up so we could all cross.
No ka mea, ua hoomaloo mai o Iehova, ko oukou Akua i na wai o Ioredane, mamua o oukou, a pau oukou i ka hele ae, e like me ka Iehova ko oukou Akua i hana'i i ke Kaiula, i ka mea ana i hoomaloo ai mamua o kakou, a hala ae kakou;
24 He did this so everyone on earth would know how powerful the Lord is, and so that you might be in awe of the Lord your God forever.”
I ike na kanaka a pau o ka honua nei i ka lima o Iehova, ua ikaika ia; i makau hoi oukou ia Iehova, i ko oukou Akua, i na la a pau loa.
