Joshua 1
1 Now it happened after the death of Moses the servant of YHWH, that YHWH spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' servant, saying,
Mgbe Mosis, bụ odibo Onyenwe anyị nwụrụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Joshua nwa Nun, onye na-enyere Mosis aka okwu sị,
2 Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you, and all this people, to the land which I give to them, even to the children of Israel.
“Mosis, odibo m anwụọla. Ugbu a, jikere onwe gị, meekwa ka ndị m jikere ịgafe ofe ọzọ nke osimiri Jọdan, ịbanye nʼala ahụ m na-aga inye ha, bụ ndị Izrel.
3 I have given you every place that the sole of your foot will tread on, as I told Moses.
Ana m agwa gị ihe m gwara Mosis mgbe ọ dị ndụ sị, Ebe ọbụla unu ga-azọkwasị ụkwụ unu nʼala, ala ahụ ga-abụ nke unu.
4 From the wilderness, and this Lebanon, even to the great river, the river Perath, all the land of the Hittites, and to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border.
Oke ala unu ga-abụ site nʼọzara dị na ndịda ruo Lebanọn, ma site nʼiyi ukwu Yufretis, tinyere ala niile nke ndị Het, ruo nʼosimiri ukwu ahụ dị nʼọdịda anyanwụ.
5 No man will be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not fail you nor forsake you.
Ọ dịghị onye ọbụla pụrụ iguzo imegide gị ụbọchị niile nke ndụ gị. Aga m anọnyere gị dịka m si nọnyere Mosis. Agaghị m ahapụ gị aka. Agaghị m agbakụtakwa gị azụ.
6 Be strong and of good courage; for you shall cause this people to inherit the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.
Dịrị ike, nweekwa ume, nʼihi na ị ga-abụ onye ga-edu ndị a iketa ala ahụ m ṅụrụ nʼiyi inye nna nna ha ochie.
7 Only be strong and very courageous, to observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded you. Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go.
“Naanị dịrị ike, nweekwa ume. Lezie anya ime ihe niile Mosis bụ odibo m nyere gị nʼiwu. Ewezugala onwe gị na ya gaa aka nri maọbụ aka ekpe, ka ihe si otu a gaara gị nke ọma nʼebe ọbụla ị na-aga.
8 This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.
Esitela nʼọnụ gị wezuga ihe dị nʼAkwụkwọ Iwu a. Kama na-atụgharị uche gị na ya ehihie na abalị, ka i si otu a lezie anya imezu ihe niile e dere nʼime ya. Mgbe ahụ ị ga-aba ụba, ihe ga-agakwara gị nke ọma.
9 Haven't I commanded you? Be strong and of good courage. Do not be afraid, neither be dismayed: for YHWH your God is with you wherever you go.
Ọ bụ na m enyebeghị gị iwu sị gị, Nwee obi ike, dịrịkwa ike! Wezuga ụjọ niile na ịda mba nke obi. Cheta na mụ, bụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, nọnyeere gị ebe ọbụla ị na-aga.”
10 Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
Mgbe ahụ, Joshua nyere ndịisi Izrel niile iwu sị ha,
11 "Pass through the midst of the camp, and command the people, saying, 'Prepare food; for within three days you are to pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land, which YHWH your God gives you to possess it.'"
“Jegharịanụ nʼetiti ebe obibi ụmụ Izrel gwa mmadụ niile okwu sị ha ‘Dozierenụ onwe unu ihe unu ga-eri nʼụzọ, nʼihi na nʼime ụbọchị atọ, anyị ga-agafe osimiri Jọdan, imeri na inweta ala ahụ Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke na-enye unu.’”
12 Joshua spoke to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, saying,
Joshua kpọkọtara ndịisi ebo Ruben, na Gad, na ọkara ebo Manase, gwa ha okwu sị,
13 "Remember the word which Moses the servant of YHWH commanded you, saying, 'YHWH your God gives you rest, and will give you this land.
“Chetanụ iwu ahụ Mosis odibo Onyenwe anyị nyere unu, mgbe ọ sịrị, ‘Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu na-enye unu izuike. O nyekwala unu ala a.’
14 Your wives, your little ones, and your livestock, shall live in the land which Moses gave you beyond the Jordan; but you shall pass over before your brothers armed, all the mighty men of valor, and shall help them
Kama ndị nwunye unu, na ụmụntakịrị unu, na anụ ụlọ unu, ga-anọ nʼala a dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ nke Mosis nyere unu. Ma ndị agha unu, ndị jikeere ejike, ga-eduru ndị Izrel ndị ọzọ gafee osimiri Jọdan inyere ụmụnna ha aka,
15 until YHWH has given your brothers rest, as he has given you, and they have also possessed the land which YHWH your God gives them. Then you shall return to the land of your possession, and possess it, which Moses the servant of YHWH gave you beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise.'"
tutu ruo mgbe Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu nyere ha izuike, dịka o si nye unu, na tutu ruo mgbe ha nwetara ala niile bụ nke Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu ga-enye ha. Mgbe nke a mezuru, unu ga-alaghachi azụ, nweta ala ahụ Mosis onyeozi Onyenwe anyị nyere unu nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ osimiri Jọdan.”
16 They answered Joshua, saying, "All that you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.
Mgbe ahụ, ha zara Joshua, “Ihe ọbụla nke ị nyere anyị nʼiwu anyị ga-eme ha, ebe ọbụla i zigara anyị ka anyị ga-aga.
17 Just as we listened to Moses in all things, so will we listen to you. Only may YHWH your God be with you, as he was with Moses.
Anyị ga-ege gị ntị dịka anyị si gee Mosis ntị. Ka Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị nọnyere gị dịka o si nọnyere Mosis.
18 Whoever rebels against your commandment, and doesn't listen to your words in all that you command him, he shall be put to death. Only be strong and of good courage."
Onye ọbụla nupuru isi nʼiwu i nyere anyị, ọ ga-anwụ. Naanị dịrị ike, nweekwa obi ike.”
