Joshua 23
1 And a long season after that the Lord had giuen rest vnto Israel from all their enemies round about, and Ioshua was olde, and stricken in age,
Bangʼ kinde moko ka Jehova Nyasaye nosemiyo jo-Israel kwe e kindgi gi wasikgi duto, noyudo ka koro Joshua oseti kendo ne en gi higni moniangʼ,
2 Then Ioshua called all Israel, and their Elders, and their heads, and their iudges, and their officers, and said vnto them, I am old, and stricken in age.
omiyo noluongo jo-Israel duto kaachiel gi jodong-gi, jotelo, jongʼad bura kod jotelo mamoko kendo mi owachonegi niya, “Aseti kendo hika oseniangʼ.
3 Also ye haue seene all that the Lord your God hath done vnto al these nations before you, howe the Lord your God him selfe hath fought for you.
Un uwegi useneno gigo ma Jehova Nyasaye osetimo ni ogendinigi duto nikech un; ne en Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ema nokedonu.
4 Beholde, I haue deuided vnto you by lot these nations that remaine, to be an inheritance according to your tribes, from Iorden, with all the nations that I haue destroyed, euen vnto the great Sea Westward.
Paruru kaka asepogo ni dhoutu pinje duto mag ogendini mane odongʼ kaka girkeni, ogendini mane aloyo, modak e kind aora Jordan kod Nam Maduongʼ mantiere yo podho chiengʼ.
5 And the Lord your God shall expell them before you, and cast them out of your sight, and ye shall possesse their land, as the Lord your God hath said vnto you.
Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu owuon biro riembo wasiku e nyimu. Omiyo riembgiuru gia e nyimu, kendo unukaw pinygi, mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu nosingonu.
6 Be ye therefore of a valiant courage, to obserue and doe all that is written in the booke of the Lawe of Moses, that ye turne not therefrom to the right hand nor to the left,
“Beduru motegno ahinya; beduru motangʼ mondo ulu mago duto mondikie Kitabu mar Chik mar Musa, ma ok udok yo korachwich kata koracham.
7 Neither companie with these nations: that is, with them which are left with you, neither make mention of the name of their gods, nor cause to sweare by them, neither serue them nor bowe vnto them:
Kik uriwru gi ogendini modongʼ e dieru, kik uluong nying nyisechegi kata kik ukwongʼru gi nying-gi. Kik utinegi kata kik ukulrunegi.
8 But sticke fast vnto the Lord your God, as ye haue done vnto this day.
To nyaka umak Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu motegno, mana kaka usebedo ka utimo.”
9 For ye Lord hath cast out before you great nations and mightie, and no man hath stand before your face hitherto.
“Jehova Nyasaye oseriembo e nyimu oganda maduongʼ kendo maratego; kendo nyaka odiechiengni onge ngʼama oseloyou.
10 One man of you shall chase a thousand: for the Lord your God, he fighteth for you, as he hath promised you.
Ngʼato achiel biro lawo ji alufu achiel, nikech Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kedonu, mana kaka ne osingonu.
11 Take good heede therefore vnto your selues, that ye loue the Lord your God.
Omiyo beduru motangʼ mondo uher Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
12 Els, if ye goe backe, and cleaue vnto the rest of these nations: that is, of them that remaine with you, and shall make marriages with them, and goe vnto them, and they to you,
“To ka ungʼanyo mi uriworu kod jogo motony manie pinyni modongʼ e dieru kendo unywomoru kodgi,
13 Knowe ye for certaine, that the Lord your God will cast out no more of these nations from before you: but they shall be a snare and destruction vnto you, and a whip on your sides, and thornes in your eyes, vntill ye perish out of this good land, which ye Lord your God hath giue you.
to ngʼeuru ni Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu ok nochak oriemb ogendini e dieru kendo. Jogo nobednu obadho gi ramaki, boka mi chwadogo ngʼeu, kendo kudho e wengeu, nyaka chop ulal nono uae pinyni, ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osemiyou.
14 And beholde, this day do I enter into the way of all ye world, and ye know in al your heartes and in all your soules, that nothing hath failed of all the good things which the Lord your God promised you, but all are come to passe vnto you: nothing hath failed thereof.
“Koro sani adwaro dhi kuma ji duto manie piny dhiyoe. Ungʼeyo malongʼo gi chunyu duto ni onge singo moro amora ma Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu nomiyou ma pod ok otimo. Singo duto osetimo maonge modongʼ.
15 Therefore as all good things are come vpon you, which the Lord your God promised you, so shall the Lord bring vpon you euery euill thing, vntill he haue destroyed you out of this good land, which ye Lord your God hath giue you.
Mana kaka singo duto maber mar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu osebedo adiera, omiyo Jehova Nyasaye biro kelo kuomu gigo maricho duto mobwogou godo, nyaka one ni otiekou pep e piny maberni ma osemiyou.
16 When ye shall transgresse the couenant of the Lord your God, which he commanded you, and shall goe and serue other gods, and bowe your selues to them, then shall the wrath of the Lord waxe hote against you, and ye shall perish quickely out of the good lande which he hath giuen you.
Ka uketho singruok mane kindu gi Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, mane ochikou, kendo mi udhi ma utiyo ne nyiseche manono kukulorunegi, to mirimb Nyasaye biro olore kuomu, kendo ubiro lal nono piyo e piny maber ma osemiyouni.”
