< Joshua 1 >

1 And it was after [the] death of Moses [the] servant of Yahweh and he said Yahweh to Joshua [the] son of Nun [the] servant of Moses saying.
Pea hili ʻae pekia ʻa Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova, naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, ko e tauhi ʻo Mōsese, ʻo pehē,
2 Moses servant my he has died and therefore arise pass over the Jordan this you and all the people this into the land which I [am] about to give to them to [the] people of Israel.
“Kuo pekia ʻa ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Mōsese; pea ko eni, ke ke tuʻu hake, mo ʻalu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani, ʻa koe mo e kakai ni kotoa pē, ki he fonua ʻaia ʻoku ou foaki kiate kinautolu, ʻio, ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
3 Every place which it will tread [the] sole of foot your on it to you I have given it just as I spoke to Moses.
Ko e potu kotoa pē ʻe tuʻu ki ai homou ʻaofivaʻe, ko ia kuo u foaki kiate kimoutolu, ʻo hangē ko ʻeku tala kia Mōsese.
4 From the wilderness and Lebanon this and to the river great [the] river of Euphrates all [the] land of the Hittites and to the sea great [the] setting of the sun it will be territory your.
Mei he toafa mo Lepanoni ni, ʻio, ʻo aʻu atu ki he vaitafe lahi, ko e vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi, ʻae fonua kotoa pē ʻoe kakai Heti, ʻo aʻu atu ki he tahi lahi ʻo hangē atu ki he toʻanga laʻā, ko hoʻomou potu ia.
5 Not he will stand anyone before you all [the] days of life your just as I was with Moses I will be with you not I will abandon you and not I will leave you.
‌ʻE ʻikai ha tangata te ne faʻa tuʻu ʻi ho ʻao, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo moʻui: ʻo hangē ko ʻeku ʻia Mōsese, ʻe pehē pe ʻeku ʻiate koe: ʻe ʻikai te u fakatukutukuʻi koe, pe siʻaki koe.
6 Be strong and be bold for you you will cause to inherit the people this the land which I swore to fathers their to give to them.
Ke ke mālohi mo ke lototoʻa; koeʻuhi te ke tufa ki he kakai ni ʻae fonua, ʻaia naʻaku fuakava ai ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai ke foaki kiate kinautolu ko honau tofiʻa.
7 Only be strong and be bold exceedingly to take care to do according to all the law which he commanded you Moses servant my may not you turn aside from it right and left so that you may prosper in every where you will go.
Kae kehe ke mālohi pe ʻa koe mo ke lototoʻa ʻaupito, koeʻuhi ke ke tokanga ʻo fai ʻo fakatatau ki he fono kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe fekau kiate koe ʻe heʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Mōsese: ʻoua naʻa ke tafoki mei ai ki he nima toʻomataʻu pē ki he toʻohema, koeʻuhi ke ke monūʻia koe ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻoku ke ʻalu ki ai.
8 Not it will depart [the] book of the law this from mouth your and you will meditate on it by day and night so that you may take care to do according to every [thing] written in it for then you will make successful ways your and then you will be successful.
Ko e tohi ni ʻoe fono ke ʻoua naʻa mahuʻi ia mei ho ngutu: ka ke fakalaulauloto ki ai ʻi he ʻaho mo e pō, koeʻuhi ke ke tokanga ʻo fai ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē kuo tohi ʻi ai: he ko ia te ke ngaohi ke monūʻia ai ho hala, pea ke toki fai fakapotopoto ai.
9 ¿ Not have I commanded you be strong and be bold may not you be terrified and may not you be dismayed for [is] with you Yahweh God your in every where you will go.
‌ʻIkai ko au kuo u fekauʻi koe? Ke ke mālohi koe pea ke lototoʻa; ʻoua naʻa ke manavahē, pea ʻoua naʻa ke puputuʻu: he ko Sihova ko ho ʻOtua ʻoku ʻiate koe ia ʻi he potu kotoa pē ʻoku ke ʻalu ki ai.”
10 And he commanded Joshua [the] officers of the people saying.
Pea naʻe fekau ai ʻe Siosiua, ki he kau matāpule ʻoe kakai, ʻo pehē,
11 Pass - in [the] midst of the camp and command the people saying prepare for yourselves food for in yet - three days you [are] about to pass over the Jordan this to go to take possession of the land which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you to take possession of it.
“Mou ʻalu ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe kautau, pea fekau ki he kakai, ʻo pehē, Teuteu hoʻomou meʻakai; koeʻuhi ʻi he teʻeki ngata ʻae ʻaho ʻe tolu, te mou hoko atu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻoe Sioatani ni, ke mou hoko ke maʻu ʻae fonua, ʻaia ʻoku foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻe Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ke mou maʻu ia.”
12 And to the Reubenite[s] and to the Gadite[s] and to [the] half of [the] tribe of Manasseh he said Joshua saying.
Pea naʻe lea ʻa Siosiua ki he faʻahinga ʻo Lupeni, mo e faʻahinga ʻo Kata, mo hono vaeua ʻoe faʻahinga ʻo Manase, ʻo pehē,
13 Remember the word which he commanded you Moses [the] servant of Yahweh saying Yahweh God your [is] giving rest to you and he will give to you the land this.
“Mou manatu ki he lea ʻaia naʻe fekau ʻe Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova kiate kimoutolu, ʻo pehē, Kuo foaki ʻe Sihova ko homou ʻOtua ʻae mālōlōʻanga kiate kimoutolu, pea kuo ne foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae fonua ni.
14 Wives your little one[s] your and livestock your they will remain in the land which he gave to you Moses on [the] other side of the Jordan and you you will pass over arrayed for battle before brothers your all [the] mighty [men] of strength and you will help them.
‌ʻE nofo homou ngaahi uaifi, mo hoʻomou fānau siʻi, mo hoʻomou fanga manu, ʻi he fonua ʻaia naʻe foaki ʻe Mōsese kiate kimoutolu ʻi he kauvai ni ʻo Sioatani; ka ʻe ʻalu muʻomuʻa ʻakimoutolu mo e mahafutau ʻi he ʻao ʻo homou ngaahi kāinga, ʻae kau tangata mālohi mo toʻa kotoa pē, ʻo tokoni ʻakinautolu;
15 Until that he will give rest Yahweh - to brothers your like you and they will take possession of also they the land which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to them and you will return to [the] land of possession your and you will take possession of it which - he gave to you Moses [the] servant of Yahweh on [the] other side of the Jordan [the] rising of the sun.
Kaeʻoua ke foaki ʻe Sihova ʻae mālōlōʻanga ki homou ngaahi kāinga ʻo hangē ko kimoutolu, pea ke maʻu ʻekinautolu foki ʻae fonua ʻaia ʻoku foaki ʻe Sihova ko homou ʻOtua kiate kinautolu: pea hili ia te mou toe haʻu ki he fonua ko homou tofiʻa, ʻo maʻu ia ʻo fiemālie ʻi ai, ʻaia naʻe foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻe Mōsese ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova ʻi he kauvai ni ʻo Sioatani ʻo hanga atu ki he hopoʻangalaʻā.”
16 And they answered Joshua saying all that you have commanded us we will do and to every where you will send us we will go.
Pea naʻa nau talaange kia Siosiua, ʻo pehē, “Ko ia fulipē ʻoku ke fekau kiate kimautolu te mau fai ia, pea ko e potu kotoa pē ʻoku ke fekauʻi ʻakimautolu ki ai, te mau ʻalu.
17 According to all that we listened to Moses so we will listen to you only may he be Yahweh God your with you just as he was with Moses.
Hangē ko ʻemau tokanga kia Mōsese ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, ʻe pehē pe ʻemau tokanga kiate koe: kae kehe ke ʻiate koe ʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko ʻene ʻia Mōsese.
18 Every person who he will rebel toward mouth your and not he will obey words your to all that you will command him he will be put to death only be strong and be bold.
‌ʻIlonga ha tokotaha ʻoku angatuʻu ki hoʻo fekau, pea ʻoku ʻikai tokanga ia ki hoʻo ngaahi lea ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ke fekau kiate ia, ʻe tāmateʻi ia ka ke mālohi koe mo ke lototoʻa.”
