< Joshua 24 >
1 And Joshua gathered together all the tribes of Israel, unto Shechem, —and called for the elders of Israel, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers, and they presented themselves before God.
A LAILA, hoiliili mai la o Iosua i na ohana a pau a Iseraela ma Sekema, a kahea aku la oia i na lunakahiko a Iseraela, a me ko lakou alii, a me ko lakou lunakanawai, a me ka poe luna o lakou; a noho iho la lakou imua o ke alo o ke Akua.
2 Then said Joshua unto all the people—Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel, Beyond the River, dwelt your fathers from age-past times, [unto] Terah, father of Abraham, and father of Nahor, —and they served other gods.
Olelo mai la o Iosua i na kanaka a pau, Ke i mai nei o Iehova, ke Akua o Iseraela penei, Ua noho no ko oukou kupuna ma kela kapa o ka muliwai, i ka wa kahiko, o Tera ka makuakane o Aberahama, o ka makuakane hoi o Nahora; a malama no lakou i na'kua e.
3 So I took your father, Abraham, from beyond the River, and led him through all the land of Canaan, —and multiplied his seed, and gave unto him, Isaac;
A lawe au i ko oukou kupuna ia Aberahama, mai kela kapa ae o ka muliwai, a alakai au ia ia i na aina a pau o Kanaana nei, a hoonui i kona hua, a haawi no au ia Isaaka nana.
4 and gave unto Isaac Jacob and Esau, —and gave unto Esau, Mount Seir, to possess it, but, Jacob and his sons, went down into Egypt.
A haawi au na Isaaka ia Iakoba a me Esau: a haawi au na Esau i ka mauna o Seira, i wahi e noho ai nona; aka, o Iakoba a me kana mau keiki, hele lakou ilalo i Aigupita.
5 Then sent I Moses and Aaron, and plagued Egypt, according to that which I did in their midst, and, afterwards, brought you forth.
Hoouna aku au ia Mose, a me Aarona, a hoomainoino au ia Aigupita, ma ka mea a'u i hana'i mawaena o lakou; a mahope iho, lawe mai au ia oukou mawaho.
6 Yea I brought forth your fathers, out of Egypt, and ye came unto the sea, and the Egyptians pursued after your fathers, with chariots and with horsemen, unto the Red Sea.
A lawe mai no au i ko oukou poe makua, mai Aigupita mai; a hele mai lakou e hiki i ke kai, a hahai mai ka poe Aigupita mahope o ko oukou poe makua, me na halekaa, a me ko lakou poe hololio, a hiki i ke Kaiula.
7 So they made outcry unto Yahweh, and he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought in upon them the sea, and covered them, —and your eyes beheld what I did with the Egyptians. And, when ye had remained in the desert many days,
A kahea lakou ia Iehova, alaila, kau oia i ka poeleele mawaena o oukou a me ko Aigupita, hoopopoi mai oia i ke kai, a uhi mai maluna o lakou. Pela no i ike ai ko oukou mau maka i na mea a pau a'u i hana'i i ko Aigupita: a ua noho oukou ma ka waonahele, i na la he nui loa.
8 then I brought you into the land of the Amorites, who were dwelling over the Jordan, and they fought with you, —then delivered I them into your hand, and ye took possession of their land, so I destroyed them from before you.
A ua alakai mai nei au ia oukou i ka aina o ka Amora, ka poe i noho ma kela kapa o Ioredane, a kaua mai lakou ia oukou; aka, haawi no wau ia lakou iloko o ko oukou mau lima, a noho oukou ma ko lakou aina; a luku aku la au ia lakou imua o oukou.
9 Then rose up Balak, son of Zippor, king of Moab, and made war with Israel, —and sent and called for Balaam son of Beor, to curse you;
Alaila ku iluna o Balaka, ke keiki a Zipora, o ke alii o Moaba, a kaua mai oia i ka Iseraela, a hoouna aku la oia, a kahea aku la ia Balaama, i ke keiki a Beora e olelo hoino ia oukou.
10 but I was not willing to hearken unto Balaam, —so, he kept on blessing, you, and I rescued you out of his hand.
Aka, aole au i makemake e hoolohe ia Balaama; no ia mea, hoomaikai mai oia ia oukou, a hoopakele au ia oukou, mai kona lima aku.
11 Then passed ye over the Jordan, and came in unto Jericho, and, when they would have made war with you—even the lords of Jericho—the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Girgashite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, then delivered I them into your hand.
A hele mai oukou, maluna mai o Ioredane, a hiki i Ieriko; a kaua mai ka poe noho ma Ieriko ia oukou, a me ka Amora, a me ka Pereza, a me ko Kanaana: a me ka Heta, a me ka Giregasa, a me ka Heva, a me ka Iebusa; a haawi au ia lakou i ko oukou mau lima.
12 And I sent before you the hornet, which drave them out from before you, the two kings of the Amorites, —not with thy sword, nor with thy bow.
A hoouna au imua o oukou i na nalohopeeha, a kipaku aku la au ia lakou, mai ko oukou alo aku, i na'lii elua o ka Amora; aole na ka oukou pahikaua, aole no hoi na ka oukou kakaka.
13 Thus I gave unto you a land on which thou hadst not laboured, and cities which ye had not built, and ye proceeded to dwell therein, —of vineyards and oliveyards, which ye planted not, ye are eating.
A haawi au ia oukou i ka aina nona oukou i hooluhi ole ai, a me na kulanakauhale i kukulu ole ia'i e oukou, a ke noho nei oukou malaila; a ke ai nei oukou i kona malawaina, a me na mala oliva a oukou i kanu ole ai.
14 Now, therefore, revere ye Yahweh, and serve him, in sincerity and in truth, —and put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River, and in Egypt, and serve ye Yahweh.
Ano la, e makau oukou ia Iehova, a e malama ia ia, me ka manao maikai, a me ka oiaio; a e haalele oukou i na akua a ko oukou mau makua i malama'i, ma kela kapa aku o ka muliwai, a ma Aigupita; a e malama oukou ia Iehova.
15 But, if it be, a vexation, in your eyes, to serve Yahweh, choose ye for yourselves, to-day, whom ye will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served, that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye are dwelling, —but, I and my house, will serve Yahweh.
A ina he mea ino i ko oukou manao ke malama ia Iehova, e koho oukou i keia la i ka oukou mea e malama aku ai; i na'kua paha a ko oukou poe kupuna i malama'i ma kela kapa aku o ka muliwai, i na'kua paha o ka Amora, no lakou no ka aina e noho nei oukou: aka, owau, a me ko ka hale o'u, e malama makou ia Iehova.
16 Then responded the people, and said, Far be it from us, that we should forsake Yahweh, —to serve other gods;
Alaila, olelo aku la na kanaka, i mai la, Aole loa makou e haalele ia Iehova, a e malama i na akua e;
17 for, as for Yahweh our God, he, brought up both us and our fathers, out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of servants, —and who did before our eyes, these great signs, and preserved us throughout all the way wherein we journeyed, and among all the peoples through the midst of whom we passed;
No ka mea, o Iehova, ko kakou Akua, oia no ka mea nana i lawe mai ia kakou, a me ko kakou poe makua mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, mailoko mai hoi o ka hale hooluhi; ka mea nana i hana i na mea nui imua o ko kakou mau maka, a malama mai oia ia kakou ma ke alanui a pau a kakou i hele mai ai, a mawaena o na kanaka a pau ma kahi a kakou i hele ai.
18 then did Yahweh drive out all the peoples, even the Amorites were dwelling in the land, from before us, —we too, will serve Yahweh, for, he, is our God.
A na Iehova no i kipaku aku, mai ko kakou alo aku i na kanaka a pau, i ka Amora, i noho i ka aina; ano la e malama kakou ia Iehova, no ka mea, oia no ko kakou Akua.
19 Then said Joshua unto the people—Ye cannot serve Yahweh, for, a holy God, he is, a jealous GOD, he is, he will not forgive your transgression, nor your sins.
A olelo mai la o Iosua i na kanaka, Aole hiki ia oukou ke malama ia Iehova, no ka mea, he Akua ihiihi oia, he Akua lili no hoi; aole e kala mai oia i ko oukou hala, a me ko oukou hewa.
20 When ye forsake Yahweh, and serve the gods of a stranger, then will he turn, and inflict on you calamity, and consume you, after that he hath dealt well with you.
No ka mea, ina e haalele oukou ia Iehova, a e malama i na'kua o, alaila e huli oia a e hoino mai oia ia oukou, a e hoopau oia ia oukou mahope iho o kona lokomaikai ana mai ia oukou.
21 But the people said unto Joshua, —Nay! but, Yahweh, will we serve.
Alaila, olelo aku la na kanaka ia Iosua, Aole loa pela, no ka mea, e malama aku no makou ia Iehova.
22 Then said Joshua unto the people—Witnesses, are ye, against yourselves, that, ye yourselves, have chosen you Yahweh, to serve him. And they said: Witnesses!
Olelo mai la o Iosua i na kanaka, He poe hoike oukou no oukou iho, ua koho oukou ia Iehova no oukou, e malama aku ia ia. Olelo aku la lakou, He poe hoike no makou.
23 Now, therefore, put ye away the gods of the stranger, that are in your midst, —and incline your heart unto Yahweh, God of Israel.
Ano la, e kipaku oukou i na akua e, mai ko oukou alo aku, a e hoopili oukou me ko oukou naau ia Iehova i ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
24 And the people said unto Joshua, —Yahweh our God, will we serve, and, unto his voice, will we hearken.
Olelo aku la na kanaka ia Iosua, O Iehova, o ko kakou Akua, o ka makou ia e malama aku ai, a o kona leo ka makou e hoolohe aku ai.
25 So then Joshua solemnised a covenant for the people, on that day, —and set for them a statute and a regulation, in Shechem.
A hana iho la o Iosua i berita me na kanaka i kela la, a waiho oia no lakou i ke kanawai a me ke kapu ma Sekema.
26 And Joshua wrote these words in the scroll of the law of God, —and took a great stone, and set it up there, under the oak that was by the sanctuary of Yahweh.
A kakau iho la o Iosua i keia mau olelo maloko o ka buke o ke kanawai o ke Akua, a lawe no hoi oia i pohaku nui, a kukulu iho la i ua pohaku la malaila, ma ka laau e kokoke ana i ka halelewa o Iehova.
27 And Joshua said unto all the people—Lo! this stone, shall serve against us as a witness, for, it, hath heard all the sayings of Yahweh, which he hath spoken with us, —so shall it serve against you as a witness, lest ye should act deceptively against your God.
Olelo aku la o Iosua i na kanaka a pau, Eia hoi keia pohaku, oia ko kakou mea hoike; no ka mea, ua lohe ia mea i na olelo a pau a Iehova, ana i kauoha mai ai ia kakou; a he mea hoike no ia no oukou, o hoole oukou i ke Akua.
28 And Joshua sent the people away, every man unto his inheritance.
A hookuu aku la o Iosua i ka poe kanaka, i kela kanaka i keia kanaka i kona aina.
29 And it came to pass, after these things, that Joshua son of Nun, servant of Yahweh, died, being a hundred and ten years old.
Mahope iho o keia mau mea, make iho la o Iosua, ke keiki a Nuna, ke kauwa a Iehova, a o kona mau la a pau, hookahi ia haneri makahiki a me ka umi keu.
30 And they buried him within the bounds of his own inheritance, in Timnath-serah, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of Mount Gaash.
A kanu iho la lakou ia ia ma ke kihi o kona aina, ma Timenasera, ma ka puu o Eperaima, ma ke kukulu akau o ka puu o Gaasa.
31 So then Israel served Yahweh all the days of Joshua, —and all the days of the elders who prolonged their days after Joshua, and who had known all the work of Yahweh, which he had wrought for Israel.
A malama no ka Iseraela ia Iehova i na la a pau o Iosua, a i na la a pau o na lunakahiko, i ola mahope iho o Iosua, ka poe i ike i na mea a pau a Iehova i hana mai ai i ka Iseraela.
32 And, the bones of Joseph—which the sons of Israel had brought up out of Egypt, buried they in Shechem, in the portion of field, which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor, father of Shechem, for a hundred pieces of money, —and they belonged unto the sons of Joseph, as an inheritance.
A o na iwi o Iosepa a na mamo a Iseraela i lawe mai ai, mai Aigupita mai, kanu iho la lakou ia mea ma Sekema, i kahi ma ke kula a Iakoba i kuai ai me na keiki a Hamora, ka makua o Sekema, i na moni hookahi haneri; a ili mai no ia no na keiki a Iosepa.
33 And, Eleazar son of Aaron, died, —and they buried him in the hill of Phinehas his son, which was given to him, in the hill country of Ephraim.
A make o Eleazara ke keiki a Aarona; a kanu iho la lakou ia ia ma ka puu o Pinehasa o kana keiki, i haawiia mai nona ma ka mauna o Eperaima.
