Joshua 22
1 Then Joshua called together the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse,
Joṣua sì pe àwọn ẹ̀yà Reubeni, ẹ̀yà Gadi àti ìdajì ẹ̀yà Manase
2 and said to them, You have heard all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, and you have listened to my voice in all that he commanded you.
ó sì sọ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ̀yin ti ṣe gbogbo èyí tí Mose ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa pàṣẹ, ẹ sì ti ṣe ìgbọ́ràn sí ohun gbogbo tí mo pàṣẹ.
3 You have not deserted your brethren these many days: until this day you have kept the commandment of the Lord your God.
Ẹ kò fi àwọn arákùnrin yín sílẹ̀ láti ìgbà yí títí di òní, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ ti kíyèsára láti pa òfin Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín mọ́.
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.
Nísinsin yìí tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ti fún àwọn arákùnrin yín ní ìsinmi gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣèlérí, ẹ padà sí ilẹ̀ yín níbi tí Mose ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa fi fún yin ní òdìkejì Jordani.
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ ṣọ́ra gidigidi láti pa àṣẹ àti òfin tí Mose ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa fi fún yin mọ́. Láti fẹ́ràn Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, láti rìn nínú gbogbo ọ̀nà rẹ̀, láti gbọ́rọ̀ sí àṣẹ rẹ̀, láti dìímú ṣinṣin àti láti sìn ín pẹ̀lú gbogbo ọkàn yín àti gbogbo àyà yín.”
6 And Joshua blessed them, and dismissed them; and they went to their homes.
Nígbà náà ni Joṣua súre fún wọn, ó sì jẹ́ kí wọn máa lọ sí ilẹ̀ wọn.
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.
(Mose ti fi ilẹ̀ fún ìdajì ẹ̀yà Manase ní Baṣani, Joṣua sì ti fún ìdajì ẹ̀yà yòókù ní ilẹ̀ ní ìwọ̀-oòrùn Jordani, pẹ̀lú àwọn arákùnrin wọn). Joṣua súre fún wọn ó sì jẹ́ kí wọn máa lọ sí ilẹ̀ wọn,
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.
Ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ padà sí ilẹ̀ ẹ yín pẹ̀lú ọrọ̀ púpọ̀ yín, pẹ̀lú agbo ẹran ọ̀sìn, pẹ̀lú fàdákà, wúrà, idẹ àti irin, àti ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ aṣọ, kí ẹ sì pín ìkógun tí ẹ rí gbà láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ọ̀tá yín pẹ̀lú àwọn arákùnrin yín.”
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.
Báyìí ni àwọn ẹ̀yà Reubeni, ẹ̀yà Gadi àti ìdajì ẹ̀yà Manase fi àwọn ará Israẹli sílẹ̀ ní Ṣilo ní Kenaani láti padà sí Gileadi, ilẹ̀ wọn, èyí tí wọ́n ti gbà gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ Olúwa láti ẹnu Mose wá.
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.
Nígbà tí wọ́n wá dé Geliloti ní ẹ̀bá Jordani ní ilẹ̀ Kenaani, àwọn ẹ̀yà Reubeni, ẹ̀yà Gadi àti ìdajì ẹ̀yà Manase mọ pẹpẹ ńlá tí ó tóbi kan ní ẹ̀bá Jordani.
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.
Nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gbọ́ pé àwọn ọmọ Reubeni, àti àwọn ọmọ Gadi àti ìlàjì ẹ̀yà Manase mọ pẹpẹ kan dojúkọ ilẹ̀ Kenaani ní Geliloti ní ẹ̀bá Jordani ní ìhà kejì àwọn ọmọ Israẹli,
12 And all the children of Israel gathered together to Selo, so as to go up and fight against them.
gbogbo àjọ Israẹli péjọ ní Ṣilo láti lọ bá wọn jagun.
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,
Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli rán Finehasi ọmọ Eleasari àlùfáà, sí ilẹ̀ Gileadi, sí Reubeni, sí Gadi àti sí ìdajì ẹ̀yà Manase.
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.)
Pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ wọ́n rán àwọn ọkùnrin olóyè mẹ́wàá, ẹnìkan fún ẹ̀yà Israẹli kọ̀ọ̀kan, olórí ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan tiwọn jẹ́ olórí ìdílé láàrín àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.
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,
Nígbà tí wọ́n lọ sí Gileadi—sí Reubeni, Gadi àti ìdajì ẹ̀yà Manase—wọ́n sì sọ fún wọn pé,
16 Thus says the whole congregation of the Lord, What [is] this transgression that you have transgressed before the God of Israel, to turn away today from the Lord, in that you have built for yourselves an altar, so that you should be apostates from the Lord?
“Gbogbo àjọ ènìyàn Olúwa wí pe, ‘A fẹ́ mọ ìdí tí ẹ fi sẹ̀ sí Ọlọ́run Israẹli nípa yíyí padà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ tí ẹ sì kọ́ pẹpẹ ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ ní ìlòdì sí Olúwa?
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?
Ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Peori kò ha tó fún wa bí? Títí di òní yìí àwa kò tí ì wẹ ara wa mọ́ kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ náà, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn ti jà láàrín ènìyàn Olúwa!
18 And you have this day revolted from the Lord; and it shall come to pass if you revolt this day from the Lord, that to-morrow there shall be wrath upon all Israel.
Ṣé ẹ tún wá ń padà kúrò lẹ́yìn Olúwa ni báyìí? “‘Tí ẹ̀yin bá ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Olúwa ní òní, ní ọ̀la ní òun o bínú sí gbogbo ìpéjọpọ̀ Israẹli.
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 you an inheritance among us; and do not become apostates from God, neither do you apostatize from the Lord, because of your having built an altar apart from the altar of the Lord our God.
Bí ilẹ̀ ìní yín bá di àìmọ́, ẹ wá sí orí ilẹ̀ ìní Olúwa, ní ibi tí àgọ́ Olúwa dúró sí, kí ẹ sì pín ilẹ̀ náà pẹ̀lú wa. Ṣùgbọ́n kí ẹ má ṣe ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Olúwa tàbí sí wa nípa mímọ pẹpẹ fún ara yín, lẹ́yìn pẹpẹ Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa.
20 Behold! 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.
Nígbà tí Akani ọmọ Sera ṣe àìṣòótọ́ nípa ohun ìyàsọ́tọ̀, ǹjẹ́ ìbínú kò wá sí orí gbogbo àjọ ènìyàn Israẹli nítorí rẹ̀ bí? Òun nìkan kọ́ ni ó kú fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ẹ rẹ̀.’”
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,
Nígbà náà ni Reubeni, Gadi àti ẹ̀yà Manase sọ nínú ìdáhùn wọn fún àwọn olórí Israẹli pé.
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.
Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọlọ́run! Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọlọ́run, Òun mọ̀, jẹ́ kí Israẹli pẹ̀lú kí ó mọ̀! Bí èyí bá wà ní ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ tàbí àìgbọ́ràn sí Olúwa, ẹ má ṣe gbà wa ní òní yìí.
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.
Bí àwa bá ti mọ pẹpẹ wa láti yí padà kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa àti láti rú ẹbọ sísun àti ẹbọ oúnjẹ jíjẹ, tàbí ẹbọ àlàáfíà ní orí rẹ, kí Olúwa fún ara rẹ̀ gba ẹ̀san.
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 you to do with the Lord God of Israel?
“Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́! Àwa ṣe èyí ní ìbẹ̀rù pé ní ọjọ́ tí àwọn ọmọ yín yóò wí fún wa pé, ‘Kí ni ẹ̀yin ní ṣe pẹ̀lú Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli?
25 Whereas the Lord has set boundaries between us and you, even Jordan, and you have no portion in the Lord: so your sons shall alienate our sons, that they should not worship the Lord.
Olúwa ti fi Jordani ṣe ààlà láàrín àwa àti ẹ̀yin—àwọn ọmọ Reubeni àti àwọn ọmọ Gadi! Ẹ kò ni ní ìpín nínú Olúwa.’ Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọ yín lè mú kí àwọn ọmọ wa dẹ́kun láti máa bẹ̀rù Olúwa.
26 And we gave orders to do thus, to build this altar, not for burnt offerings, nor for meat-offerings;
“Nítorí èyí ni àwa ṣe wí pé, ‘Ẹ jẹ́ kí àwa múra láti mọ pẹpẹ kan, ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe fún ẹbọ sísun, tàbí fún àwọn ìrúbọ.’
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, You have no portion in the Lord.
Ní ọ̀nà mìíràn, yóò jẹ́ ẹ̀rí kan láàrín àwa àti ẹ̀yin àti àwọn ìran tí ń bọ̀, pé àwa yóò jọ́sìn fún Olúwa ní ibi mímọ́ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ẹbọ sísun wa, ẹbọ àti ọrẹ àlàáfíà. Nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yìn ọ̀la, àwọn ọmọ yín kò ní lè sọ fún tiwa pé, ‘Ẹ kò ní ìpín nínú ti Olúwa.’
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.
“Àwa sì wí pé, ‘Tí wọ́n bá tilẹ̀ sọ èyí fún wa, tàbí sí àwọn ọmọ wa, a ó dáhùn pé, “Ẹ wo àpẹẹrẹ pẹpẹ Olúwa, èyí tí àwọn baba wa mọ, kì í ṣe fún ẹbọ sísun àti ẹbọ ṣùgbọ́n fún ẹ̀rí láàrín àwa àti ẹ̀yin.”’
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.
“Kí Ọlọ́run má jẹ́ kí àwa kí ó ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Olúwa, kí àwa sì yípadà kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ ní òní nípa mímọ pẹpẹ ẹbọ sísun, ọrẹ oúnjẹ jíjẹ àti ẹbọ lẹ́yìn pẹpẹ Olúwa Ọlọ́run wa tí ó dúró níwájú àgọ́ rẹ̀.”
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.
Nígbà tí Finehasi àlùfáà àti àwọn olórí ìjọ ènìyàn, àwọn olórí ìdílé Israẹli gbọ́ ohun tí Reubeni, Gadi àti Manase ti sọ, ó dùn mọ́ wọn.
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 you have not trespassed grievously against the Lord, and because you have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the Lord.
Finehasi ọmọ Eleasari, àlùfáà wí fún Reubeni, Gadi àti Manase pé, “Ní òní ni àwa mọ̀ pé Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú wa, nítorí tí ẹ̀yin kò hùwà àìṣòótọ́ sí Olúwa ní orí ọ̀rọ̀ yí nísinsin yìí, ẹ̀yin ti yọ àwọn ará Israẹli kúrò ní ọwọ́ Olúwa”.
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.
Nígbà náà ni Finehasi ọmọ Eleasari àlùfáà àti àwọn olórí padà sí Kenaani láti ibi ìpàdé wọn pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹ̀yà Reubeni àti ẹ̀yà Gadi ní Gileadi, wọ́n sì mú ìròyìn tọ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli lọ.
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 lived upon it.
Inú wọn sì dùn láti gbọ́ ìròyìn náà, wọ́n sì yin Ọlọ́run. Wọn kò sì sọ̀rọ̀ mọ́ nípa lílọ bá wọn jagun láti run ilẹ̀ tí àwọn ẹ̀yà Reubeni àti ẹ̀yà Gadi ń gbé.
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.
Ẹ̀yà Reubeni àti ẹ̀yà Gadi sì fún pẹpẹ náà ní orúkọ yìí, “Ẹ̀rí láàrín wa pé Olúwa ni Ọlọ́run.”
