Joshua 4
1 And when all the people were wholy gone ouer Iorden, (after the Lord had spoken vnto Ioshua, saying,
Waaqayyos erga sabni guutuun Yordaanosin ceʼee booddee, Iyyaasuudhaan akkana jedhe;
2 Take you twelue me out of the people, out of euery tribe a man,
“Saba keessaa nama kudha lama, tokkoo tokkoo gosaa keessaa nama tokko tokko filadhuutii
3 And command you them, saying, Take you hence out of the middes of Iorden, out of the place where the Priestes stoode in a readinesse, twelue stones, which ye shall take away with you, and leaue them in the lodging where you shall lodge this night)
akka isaan walakkaa Yordaanos keessaa iddoo luboonni dhadhaabatan sanaa dhagoota kudha lama fuudhanii, baatanii isin wajjin deemanii iddoo isin edana bultanitti lafa kakaaʼan itti himi.”
4 Then Ioshua called the twelue men, whome he had prepared of the children of Israel, out of euery tribe a man,
Kanaafis Iyyaasuun, namoota kudha lamaan Israaʼeloota keessaa, tokkoo tokkoo gosaa keessaa tokko tokko filate sana walitti waamee
5 And Ioshua said vnto them, Go ouer before the Arke of the Lord your God, euen through the middes of Iorden, and take vp euery man of you a stone vpon his shoulder according vnto the nomber of the tribes of the children of Israel,
akkana jedheen; “Taabota Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanii kana dura darbaatii walakkaa Yordaanos seenaa. Tokkoon tokkoon keessanis akkuma baayʼina gosoota Israaʼelootaatti dhagaa tokko tokko fudhattanii gatiittii keessanitti baachuu qabdu.
6 That this may bee a signe among you, that whe your children shall aske their fathers in time to come, saying, What meane you by these stones?
Kunis akka wanni kun gidduu keessanitti mallattoo taʼuuf. Yommuu ijoolleen keessan gara fuulduraatti, ‘Dhagoonni kunneen maal argisiisu?’ jedhanii isin gaafatanitti,
7 Then ye may answere them, That the waters of Iorden were cut off before the Arke of the couenant of the Lord: for when it passed through Iorden, the waters of Iorden were cut off: therefore these stones are a memoriall vnto the children of Israel for euer.
akka bishaan laga Yordaanos fuula taabota kakuu Waaqayyoo duratti gargar cite itti himaa. Yommuu taabonni kun laga Yordaanos ceʼetti bishaan Yordaanos gargar cite. Dhagaawwan kunneenis saba Israaʼeliif yaadannoo bara baraa taʼu.”
8 Then ye children of Israel did euen so as Ioshua had commanded, and tooke vp twelue stones out of the mids of Iorden as ye Lord had said vnto Ioshua, according to the nomber of the tribes of the children of Israel, and caried them away with them vnto the lodging, and layd them down there.
Kanaafuu Israaʼeloonni akkuma Iyyaasuun isaan ajaje godhan. Isaanis akkuma Waaqayyo Iyyaasuutti hime sana, akkuma baayʼina gosoota Israaʼelootaatti dhagoota kudha lama walakkaa Yordaanos keessaa fuudhan; hamma iddoo qubata isaaniittis baatanii achitti lafa kaaʼatan.
9 And Ioshua set vp twelue stones in the middes of Iorden, in the place where the feete of the Priests, which bare the Arke of the couenant stood, and there haue they continued vnto this day.
Iyyaasuunis dhagoota kudha lamaan walakkaa Yordaanos keessa iddoo luboonni taabota kakuu baatan sun ijaajjaa turan sana ol dhadhaabe. Isaanis hamma harʼaatti achuma jiru.
10 So the Priests, which bare ye Arke, stoode in the middes of Iorden, vntill euery thing was finished that ye Lord had comanded Ioshua to say vnto the people, according to all that Moses charged Ioshua: then the people hasted and went ouer.
Luboonni taabota kakuu baatan sunis hamma wanni Waaqayyo akka inni namootatti himuuf Iyyaasuu ajaje hundi akkuma Museen Iyyaasuu ajajetti raawwatamutti walakkaa Yordaanos keessa dhadhaabachaa turan. Namoonnis dafanii ceʼan;
11 When all the people were cleane passed ouer, the Arke of the Lord went ouer also, and the Priests before the people.
akkuma hundi isaanii ceʼaniinis utuma namoonni arganuu taabonni Waaqayyootii fi luboonni gara gama kaaniitti ceʼan.
12 And the sonnes of Reuben, and the sonnes of Gad, and halfe the tribe of Manasseh went ouer before the children of Israel armed, as Moses had charged them.
Ilmaan Ruubeen, ilmaan Gaadii fi walakkaan gosa Minaasee akkuma Museen isaan ajajetti miʼa lolaa hidhatanii Israaʼeloota dura gara gamaatti ceʼan.
13 Euen fourty thousand prepared for warre, went before the Lord vnto battel, into ye plaine of Iericho.
Namni gara kuma afurtamaa taʼu warraanaaf hidhatee fuula Waaqayyoo dura gara dirree Yerikootti lolaaf ceʼe.
14 That day the Lord magnified Ioshua in the sight of all Israel, and they feared him, as they feared Moses all dayes of his life.
Waaqayyos guyyaa sana fuula Israaʼeloota hundaa duratti Iyyaasuu nama guddaa godhe; isaanis akkuma Museef ulfina kennaa turan sana bara jireenya isaa guutuu Iyyaasuufis ulfina kennan.
15 And the Lord spake vnto Ioshua, saying,
Ergasiis Waaqayyo Iyyaasuudhaan akkana jedhe;
16 Commande the Priests that beare ye Arke of the testimonie, to come vp out of Iorden.
“Akka isaan Yordaanos keessaa ol baʼaniif luboota taabota kakuu seeraa baatan sana ajaji.”
17 Ioshua therefore commanded the Priests, saying, Come ye vp out of Iorden.
Kanaafuu Iyyaasuun, “Yordaanos keessaa ol baʼaa” jedhee luboota ajaje.
18 And when the Priests that bare the Arke of the couenant of ye Lord were come vp out of the middes of Iorden, and assoone as the soles of the Priests feete were set on the dry land, the waters of Iorde returned vnto their place, and flowed ouer all the bankes thereof, as they did before.
Luboonnis taabota kakuu Waaqayyoo baatanii laga keessaa ol baʼan. Akkuma isaan miilla isaanii lafa gogaa irra dhaabbataniin bishaan Yordaanos iddoo ofiitti deebiʼee akkuma duraanii guutee irra dhangalaʼe.
19 So the people came vp out of Iorden the tenth day of the first moneth, and pitched in Gilgal, in the Eastside of Iericho.
Guyyaa kurnaffaa jiʼa jalqabaatti namoonni Yordaanos keessaa ol baʼanii Gilgaal isa baʼa daarii Yerikoo keessa qubatan.
20 Also the twelue stones, which they tooke out of Iorden, did Ioshua pitch in Gilgal.
Iyyaasuunis dhagoota kudha lamaan isaan Yordaanos keessaa fuudhan sana Gilgaal keessa dhadhaabe.
21 And he spake vnto ye childre of Israel, saying, When your children shall aske their fathers in time to come, and say, What meane these stones?
Innis Israaʼelootaan akkana jedhe; “Gara fuulduraatti yoo sanyiin keessan, ‘Dhagaawwan kunneen maal argisiisu?’ jedhanii abbootii isaanii gaafatan,
22 Then ye shall shew your children, and say, Israel came ouer this Iorden on dry land:
‘Israaʼel lafa gogaa irra Yordaanos ceʼe’ jedhaa itti himaa.
23 For the Lord your God dryed vp ye waters of Iorden before you, vntill ye were gone ouer, as the Lord your God did the red Sea, which hee dryed vp before vs, till we were gone ouer,
Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan hamma isin gamatti ceetanitti fuuluma keessan duratti Yordaanos gogsee tureetii. Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan akkuma hamma nu ceenutti Galaana Diimaa fuula keenya duratti gogse sana Yordaanosiinis gogse.
24 That all the people of the worlde may know that the hand of the Lord is mightie, that ye might feare the Lord your God continually.
Innis akka sabni lafaa hundinuu akka harki Waaqayyoo jabaa taʼe argisiisuu fi akka isinis yeroo hunda Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan sodaattaniif waan kana hojjete.”
