< Joshua 22 >

1 Then, called Joshua—for the Reubenites, and for the Gadites, —and for the half tribe of Manasseh;
Then he summoned Joshua the Reubenite[s] and the Gadite[s] and [the] half of [the] tribe of Manasseh.
2 and said unto them, Ye, have observed all that Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, —and have hearkened unto my voice, in all that I commanded you:
And he said to them you you have kept all that he commanded you Moses [the] servant of Yahweh and you have listened to voice my to all that I have commanded you.
3 ye have not forsaken your brethren, these many days, unto this day, —but have kept the charge of the commandment of Yahweh your God.
Not you have forsaken countrymen your this days many until the day this and you have kept [the] charge of [the] commandment of Yahweh God your.
4 Now, therefore, that Yahweh your God hath given rest unto your brethren, according as he spake unto them, —now, therefore, turn ye and get you to your homes within the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave unto you, over the Jordan.
And now he has given rest Yahweh God your to countrymen your just as he spoke to them and therefore turn and go for yourselves to tents your to [the] land of possession your which - he gave to you Moses [the] servant of Yahweh on [the] other side of the Jordan.
5 Only, take ye diligent heed, to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you—to love Yahweh your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, —and to serve him—with all your heart, and with all your soul.
Only - take care exceedingly to do the commandment and the law which he commanded you Moses [the] servant of Yahweh to love Yahweh God your and to walk in all ways his and to keep commandments his and to cleave to him and to serve him with all heart your and with all being your.
6 So Joshua blessed them, —and sent them away, and they took their journey unto their homes.
And he blessed them Joshua and he sent away them and they went to tents their.
7 Now, unto the [one] half tribe of Manesseh, had Moses given a possession in Bashan, and, unto the [other] half, did Joshua give possession with their brethren, over the Jordan, westward, —moreover also, when Joshua sent them away unto their homes, he blessed them,
And to [the] half of - [the] tribe of Manasseh he had given Moses in Bashan and to half of it he had given Joshua with countrymen their (on [the] other side of *Q(K)*) the Jordan west-ward and also if he sent away them Joshua to tents their and he blessed them.
8 and spake unto them, saying—With much wealth, return ye unto your homes, even with very much cattle, with silver and with gold, and with copper and with iron, and with very much raiment, —divide ye the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.
And he said to them saying with riches great return to tents your and with livestock much very with silver and with gold and with bronze and with iron and with garments many very divide [the] booty of enemies your with countrymen your.
9 So the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh. returned and departed from the sons of Israel, from Shiloh, which was in the land of Canaan, —to go unto the land of Gilead, unto the land of their possession, wherein they had received their possessions, at the bidding of Yahweh by the hand of Moses.
And they returned and they went [the] descendants of Reuben and [the] descendants of Gad and [the] half of - [the] tribe of Manasseh from with [the] people of Israel from Shiloh which [is] in [the] land of Canaan to go to [the] land of Gilead to [the] land of possession their which they had possessions in it on [the] mouth of Yahweh by [the] hand of Moses.
10 And, when they came into the circles of the Jordan, which were in the land of Canaan, —then did the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh build there an altar by the Jordan, an altar of large dimensions,
And they came to Geliloth of the Jordan which [is] in [the] land of Canaan and they built [the] descendants of Reuben and [the] descendants of Gad and [the] half of [the] tribe of Manasseh there an altar at the Jordan an altar large of appearance.
11 And the sons of Israel heard say, —Lo! the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh have built an altar in front of the land of Canaan, in the circles of the Jordan, in the region opposite the sons of Israel.
And they heard [the] people of Israel saying there! they have built [the] descendants of Reuben and [the] descendants of Gad and [the] half of [the] tribe of Manasseh the altar to opposite to [the] land of Canaan to Geliloth of the Jordan to [the] side of [the] people of Israel.
12 And, when the sons of Israel heard, all the assembly of the sons of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh, to go up against them to war.
And they heard [the] people of Israel and they assembled all [the] congregation of [the] people of Israel Shiloh to go up on them for war.
13 And the sons of Israel sent unto the sons of Reuben and unto the sons of Gad and unto the half tribe of Manasseh, within the land of Gilead, —Phinehas, son of Eleazar the priest;
And they sent [the] people of Israel to [the] descendants of Reuben and to [the] descendants of Gad and to [the] half of [the] tribe of Manasseh to [the] land of Gilead Phinehas [the] son of Eleazar the priest.
14 and ten princes with him, one prince of an ancestral house for each of the tribes of Israel, —they being, severally heads of their ancestral houses, among the thousands of Israel.
And ten leaders [were] with him a leader one a leader one to [the] house of a father to all [the] tribes of Israel and each [was] a leader of [the] house of fathers their they [belong] to [the] families of Israel.
15 So they came in unto the sons of Reuben and unto the sons of Gad and unto the half tribe of Manasseh, within the land of Gilead, —and spake with them, saying:
And they went to [the] descendants of Reuben and to [the] descendants of Gad and to [the] half of [the] tribe of Manasseh to [the] land of Gilead and they spoke with them saying.
16 Thus, say all the assembly of Yahweh—What is this act of treachery which ye have committed against the God of Israel, that ye should turn back, to-day, from following Yahweh, —in that ye have builded you an altar, that ye might rebel, to-day, against Yahweh?
Thus they say all - [the] congregation of Yahweh what? [is] the unfaithfulness this which you have acted unfaithfully against [the] God of Israel by turning back this day from after Yahweh when built you for yourselves an altar by rebelling your this day against Yahweh.
17 Too little for us, was the iniquity of Peor, from which we have not cleansed ourselves, unto this day, —although the plague came upon the assembly of Yahweh;
¿ Little for us [was] [the] iniquity of Peor which not we have cleansed ourselves from it until the day this and it was the plague among [the] congregation of Yahweh.
18 but that, ye, must turn back to-day from following Yahweh, —though it must needs be that, if, ye, rebel to-day against Yahweh, then, to-morrow, with all the assembly of Israel, will he be wroth?
And you you are turning away this day from after Yahweh and it will be you you are rebelling this day against Yahweh and tomorrow against all [the] congregation of Israel he will be angry.
19 Howbeit, if, unclean, be the land of your possession, do ye on your part come over into the land of the possession of Yahweh, where abideth the habitation of Yahweh, and take your possession in our midst, —but, against Yahweh, do not rebel, nor, against us, rebel, by building yourselves an altar apart from the altar of Yahweh our God.
And surely if [is] unclean [the] land of possession your pass over for yourselves into [the] land of [the] possession of Yahweh where it dwells there [the] tabernacle of Yahweh and have possessions in midst of us and against Yahweh may not you rebel and us to may you rebel when build you for yourselves an altar except [the] altar of Yahweh God our.
20 Did not, Achan son of Zerah, commit an act of treachery, with a devoted thing, and, upon all the assembly of Israel, came wrath, —so that not, he—one man alone, died in his iniquity.
¿ Not - Achan [the] son of Zerah did he act unfaithfully unfaithfulness in the devoted thing[s] and towards all [the] congregation of Israel it was anger and he [was] a man one not did he die? for iniquity his.
21 Then responded the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh, —and spake unto the heads of the thousands of Israel:
And they answered [the] descendants of Reuben and [the] descendants of Gad and [the] half of [the] tribe of Manasseh and they spoke with [the] leaders of [the] families of Israel.
22 El-Elohim-Yahweh, El-Elohim-Yahweh, he knoweth, and, Israel, he, shall know, —if in rebellion, or if in treachery, against Yahweh, do not save us this day:
El - God - Yahweh El - God - Yahweh he [is] knowing and Israel it let it know if in rebellion and if in unfaithfulness on Yahweh may not you save us the day this.
23 that we should build for ourselves an altar, to turn back from following Yahweh, —or, if that we might cause to go up thereon ascending-sacrifice or meal-offering, or if that we might offer thereon peace-offerings, let Yahweh himself require it;
To build for ourselves an altar to turn back from after Yahweh and if to offer up on it a burnt offering and a grain offering and if to make on it sacrifices of peace offerings Yahweh he may he require.
24 if, indeed, we have not, rather, out of anxiety and of purpose, done this thing, saying, —. In time to come, your sons might speak to our sons, saying, What have ye to do with Yahweh, God of Israel;
And if not from anxiety from a matter we have done this saying tomorrow they will say descendants your to descendants our saying what? [is] to you and to Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
25 seeing that, a boundary, hath Yahweh put between us and you, ye sons of Reuben and ye sons of Gad—even the Jordan, ye have no portion in Yahweh, —so might your sons cause our sons, to cease from revering Yahweh.
And a border he has put Yahweh between us and between you [the] descendants of Reuben and [the] descendants of Gad the Jordan not [belongs] to you a portion in Yahweh and they will cause to cease descendants your descendants our to not to fear Yahweh.
26 We said, therefore, Let us prepare, we pray you, to build us an altar, —not for ascending-offering, nor for sacrifice;
And we said let us act please for ourselves by building the altar not for burnt offering and not for sacrifice.
27 but that, a witness, it may be between us and you, and between our generations after us, that we are to do the service of Yahweh, before him, with our ascending-offerings and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings, —that your sons may not say, in time to come, to our sons, Ye have no portion in Yahweh.
For [is] a witness it between us and between you and between generations our after us to serve [the] service of Yahweh before him with burnt offerings our and with sacrifices our and with peace offerings our and not they will say descendants your tomorrow to descendants our not [belongs] to you a portion in Yahweh.
28 Therefore said we, And it shall be, when they [so] say to us, or to our generations, in time to come, —that we will say—Behold ye the pattern of the altar of Yahweh, which our fathers made, not for ascending-offerings nor for sacrifice, but that, a witness, it might be between us and you.
And we said and it will be that they will say to us and to generations our tomorrow and we will say see [the] copy of [the] altar of Yahweh which they made ancestors our not for burnt offering and not for sacrifice for [is] a witness it between us and between you.
29 Far be it from us—that we should rebel against Yahweh, or turn back, to-day, from following Yahweh, by building an altar, for ascending-offering, or meal-offering or for sacrifice, —other than the altar of Yahweh our God, which is before his habitation.
Far be it to us from us to rebel against Yahweh and to turn back this day from after Yahweh by building an altar for burnt offering for grain offering and for sacrifice besides [the] altar of Yahweh God our which [is] before tabernacle his.
30 And, when Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the assembly, even the heads of the thousands of Israel who were with him, heard the words which the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the sons of Manasseh spake, then was it well-pleasing in their eyes.
And he heard Phinehas the priest and [the] leaders of the congregation and [the] heads of [the] families of Israel who [were] with him the words which they spoke [the] descendants of Reuben and [the] descendants of Gad and [the] descendants of Manasseh and it was good in view their.
31 And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest said unto the sons of Reuben and unto the sons of Gad and unto the sons of Manasseh—To-day, we know that, in our midst, is Yahweh, in that ye have not committed, against Yahweh, this act of treachery, —now, have ye rescued the sons of Israel out of the hand of Yahweh.
And he said Phinehas [the] son of Eleazar the priest to [the] descendants of Reuben and to [the] descendants of Gad and to [the] descendants of Manasseh this day - we know that [is] among midst of us Yahweh that not you have acted unfaithfully against Yahweh the unfaithfulness this then you have delivered [the] people of Israel from [the] hand of Yahweh.
32 So Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest and the princes returned from the sons of Reuben and from the sons of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, unto the land of Canaan, unto the sons of Israel, —and brought them back word.
And he returned Phinehas [the] son of Eleazar the priest - and the leaders from with [the] descendants of Reuben and from with [the] descendants of Gad from [the] land of Gilead to [the] land of Canaan to [the] people of Israel and they brought back with them word.
33 And the thing was well-pleasing in the eyes of the sons of Israel, and the sons of Israel blessed God, —and spake not of going up against them, to war, to lay waste the land, wherein the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad dwelt.
And it was good the word in [the] eyes of [the] people of Israel and they blessed God [the] people of Israel and not they said to go up on them for war to destroy the land which [the] descendants of Reuben and [the] descendants of Gad [were] dwelling in it.
34 So the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad named the altar [a Witness]: A witness, it is between us, That, Yahweh, is God.
And they called [the] descendants of Reuben and [the] descendants of Gad the altar for [is] a witness it between us that Yahweh [is] God.
