Joshua 24
1 [Many years later], Joshua summoned representatives of all the tribes of Israel. He gathered together the elders, the leaders, the judges, and the other officials at Shechem [city]. He told them to listen to what God wanted to tell them.
Иосуа а адунат тоате семинцииле луй Исраел ла Сихем ши а кемат пе бэтрыний луй Исраел, пе кэпетенииле луй, пе жудекэторий луй ши пе кэпетенииле оштий. Ей с-ау ынфэцишат ынаинтя луй Думнезеу.
2 Joshua said to all of them, “This is what Yahweh, the God we Israeli people worship, is saying: ‘Long ago, your ancestors, including Abraham’s father Terah and Abraham’s younger brother Nahor, lived on the east side of the Euphrates River.
Иосуа а зис ынтрегулуй попор: „Аша ворбеште Домнул Думнезеул луй Исраел: ‘Пэринций воштри, Терах, татэл луй Авраам ши татэл луй Нахор, локуяу ын векиме де чялалтэ парте а рыулуй (Еуфрат) ши служяу алтор думнезей.
3 But I took your ancestor Abraham from that land east of the Euphrates River, and I led him as he lived in various places in this land of Canaan, and I enabled him to have many descendants. First, I enabled him to have a son, Isaac.
Еу ам луат пе татэл востру Авраам дин чялалтэ парте а рыулуй ши л-ам пуртат прин тоатэ цара Канаанулуй; й-ам ынмулцит сэмынца ши й-ам дат пе Исаак.
4 When Isaac grew up, I enabled him to have twin sons, Jacob and Esau. I enabled Esau to live in the hilly area in Seir region, but many years later Jacob and his sons and their families went down to live in Egypt.
Луй Исаак й-ам дат пе Иаков ши пе Есау: луй Есау й-ам дат ын стэпынире мунтеле Сеир, яр Иаков ши фиий луй с-ау коборыт ын Еӂипт.
5 “[Many years later], I sent Moses and his older brother Aaron to help your people, and I caused [the people of] Egypt to suffer very much because of what I did there. Then I enabled your ancestors to leave Egypt.
Ам тримис пе Мойсе ши пе Аарон ши ам ловит Еӂиптул ку минуниле пе каре ле-ам фэкут ын мижлокул луй; апой в-ам скос афарэ дин ел.
6 When I brought your ancestors out of Egypt, they came to the Red Sea. The Egyptian army pursued them, some riding in chariots and others on horses, and they also arrived at the Red Sea.
Ам скос пе пэринций воштри дин Еӂипт ши аць ажунс ла маре. Еӂиптений ау урмэрит пе пэринций воштри пынэ ла Маря Рошие, ку каре ши кэлэрець.
7 Then [your ancestors] pleaded with me to help them. So he caused (darkness/a very dark cloud) to come between your ancestors and the Egyptian army, so that the Egyptian army could not see your ancestors. I separated the water in the Red Sea so that your ancestors could cross it, but when the Egyptian army tried to cross in the same way to pursue them, I caused the water to come back and cover them, and the Egyptian soldiers all drowned, as your ancestors watched and were amazed [IDM]. But after that, you lived in the desert for many years.
Пэринций воштри ау стригат кэтре Домнул. Ши Домнул а пус ынтунерик ынтре вой ши еӂиптень, а адус маря ынапой песте ей ши й-а акоперит. Аць вэзут ку окий воштри че ам фэкут еӂиптенилор. Ши аць рэмас мултэ време ын пустиу.
8 “Then I brought your [ancestors] to the area where the groups who were descendants of Amor lived, east of the Jordan River. They fought against you, but I enabled you to defeat them [IDM]. I [enabled you to] destroy them so that you could live in their land [IDM].
В-ам адус ын цара аморицилор, каре локуяу динколо де Йордан, ши ей ау луптат ымпотрива воастрэ. Й-ам дат ын мыниле воастре; аць пус стэпынире пе цара лор ши й-ам нимичит динаинтя воастрэ.
9 Then, Zippor’s son Balak, the King of Moab, (decided that his army would fight against/opposed) the Israelis. He summoned Beor’s son Balaam and asked him to curse you.
Балак, фиул луй Ципор, ымпэратул Моабулуй, с-а скулат ши а порнит ла луптэ ымпотрива луй Исраел. А кемат пе Балаам, фиул луй Беор, ка сэ вэ блестеме.
10 But I would not do what Balaam asked, so he (blessed/said that I would do great things for) you four times, and I did not enable the army of Moab to defeat you [IDM].
Дар н-ам врут сэ аскулт пе Балаам: ел в-а бинекувынтат ши в-ам избэвит дин мына луй Балак.
11 “Then you all crossed the Jordan River and came to Jericho. The people of Jericho prepared to fight against you, [and the armies of] the descendants of Amor, Periz, Canaan, Heth, Girgash, Hiv, and Jebus [all prepared to do the same thing] but I enabled you to defeat [IDM] them all.
Аць трекут Йорданул ши аць ажунс ла Иерихон. Локуиторий Иерихонулуй ау луптат ымпотрива воастрэ: амориций, ферезиций, канааниций, хетиций, гиргасиций, хевиций ши иебусиций. Й-ам дат ын мыниле воастре,
12 I am the one who caused them to panic as you advanced and enabled you to defeat them, as I had enabled you to do earlier to the two kings of the groups who were descendants of Amor. You did not defeat them by using your own bows and arrows and swords; [it was I who defeated them].
ам тримис ынаинтя воастрэ веспе бондэряскэ ши й-а изгонит динаинтя воастрэ ка пе чей дой ымпэраць ай аморицилор: ну ку сабия, нич ку аркул тэу.
13 So I gave you a land that you had not tilled/planted, and I gave you cities that you did not build. [Now] you live in those [cities] and you eat the grapes from the grapevines that you did not plant, and you eat olives from trees that you did not plant.’”
В-ам дат о царэ пе каре н-о мунчисерэць, четэць пе каре ну ле зидисерэць, дар пе каре ле локуиць, вий ши мэслинь пе каре ну-й сэдисерэць, дар каре вэ служеск ка хранэ.’
14 [Then Joshua said to the people], “[Because of all that] Yahweh [has done for you], revere him, and serve/worship him very faithfully. Throw away the idols that your ancestors worshiped on the east/other side of the Euphrates River and in Egypt. Serve only Yahweh.
Акум, темеци-вэ де Домнул ши служици-Й ку скумпэтате ши крединчошие. Депэртаць думнезеий кэрора ле-ау служит пэринций воштри динколо де рыу ши ын Еӂипт ши служиць Домнулуй.
15 But if you do not want to serve/worship Yahweh, you should decide today what [gods] you will serve/worship. You should decide whether you will serve/worship the gods that your ancestors who lived on the other/east side of the Euphrates River served, or whether you will serve/worship the gods that the descendants of Amor, who previously lived in the land where you are now living, [serve/worship]. But as for me and my family [MTY], we will serve/worship Yahweh!”
Ши дакэ ну гэсиць ку кале сэ служиць Домнулуй, алеӂець астэзь куй врець сэ служиць: сау думнезеилор кэрора ле служяу пэринций воштри динколо де рыу, сау думнезеилор аморицилор, ын а кэрор царэ локуиць. Кыт деспре мине, еу ши каса мя вом служи Домнулуй.”
16 The Israeli people answered, “We will never quit [serving/worshiping] Yahweh! We would never [think of] [IDM] serving/worshiping other gods!
Попорул а рэспунс ши а зис: „Департе де ной гындул сэ пэрэсим пе Домнул ши сэ служим алтор думнезей.
17 It was our God, Yahweh, who brought our parents and grandparents up out of Egypt. [He rescued them] from that land where they were slaves. As he rescued them, they saw him perform great miracles. He protected them all the time when they were traveling. He protected them from all the people-groups through whose territory they traveled.
Кэч Домнул есте Думнезеул ностру. Ел не-а скос дин цара Еӂиптулуй, дин каса робией, пе ной ши пе пэринций ноштри; Ел а фэкут ынаинтя окилор ноштри ачеле минунь марь ши не-а пэзит ын тот тимпул друмулуй пе каре л-ам урмат ши ын мижлокул тутурор попоарелор пе ла каре ам трекут.
18 As our forefathers advanced, Yahweh expelled the descendants of Amor and the other people-groups who lived in this land. Yahweh is our God, so [we are saying that] we also will serve/worship him.”
Ел а изгонит динаинтя ноастрэ пе тоате попоареле ши пе амориций каре локуяу цара ачаста. Ши ной вом служи Домнулуй, кэч Ел есте Думнезеул ностру.”
19 Joshua replied to the people, “[I think that] you are not able to serve/worship Yahweh, because he is a holy God. He will not forgive your sinning and rebelling [against him]. He demands that you serve/worship only him [IDM].
Иосуа а зис попорулуй: „Вой ну вець путя сэ служиць Домнулуй, кэч есте ун Думнезеу сфынт, ун Думнезеу ӂелос; Ел ну вэ ва ерта фэрэделеӂиле ши пэкателе.
20 He has been good to you [in the past], but if you turn away from him and serve/worship foreign/other gods, he will turn [against you] and he will cause you to experience disasters. He will punish [IDM] you severely!”
Кынд вець пэрэси пе Домнул ши вець служи унор думнезей стрэинь, Ел Се ва ынтоарче ши вэ ва фаче рэу ши вэ ва нимичи, дупэ че в-а фэкут бине.”
21 But the people replied to Joshua, “No, [we will not turn away from worshiping/serving Yahweh] We will serve/worship Yahweh!”
Попорул а зис луй Иосуа: „Ну! Кэч вом служи Домнулуй.”
22 Then Joshua said, “You yourselves are saying that you have decided to serve/worship Yahweh.” They replied, “Yes, we are saying that.”
Иосуа а зис попорулуй: „Вой сунтець марторь ымпотрива воастрэ ыншивэ кэ аць алес пе Домнул, ка сэ-Й служиць.” Ей ау рэспунс: „Сунтем марторь!”
23 Then Joshua said, “Since [you have decided] that, you must throw away all the other gods/idols that you have among you. You must also promise that you will wholeheartedly give yourselves to Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [serve/worship].”
„Скоатець дар думнезеий стрэинь каре сунт ын мижлокул востру ши ынтоарчеци-вэ инима спре Домнул Думнезеул луй Исраел.”
24 The people replied, “We will serve/worship Yahweh, our God, and obey him.”
Ши попорул а зис луй Иосуа: „Ной вом служи Домнулуй Думнезеулуй ностру ши вом аскулта гласул Луй.”
25 That day, Joshua established an agreement between the people and Yahweh. He wrote for them all the laws that they were required to obey.
Иосуа а фэкут ын зиуа ачея ун легэмынт ку попорул ши й-а дат леӂь ши порунчь ла Сихем.
26 He wrote all those laws on a scroll. He called it ‘The laws of God’. Then he [told some men to] set up a large stone there at Shechem, under the [large] oak tree near the place where [they worshiped] Yahweh.
Иосуа а скрис ачесте лукрурь ын картя леӂий луй Думнезеу. А луат о пятрэ маре ши а ридикат-о аколо суб стежарул каре ера ын локул ынкинат Домнулуй.
27 He said to all the people, “Look! [It is as though] this stone has heard everything that Yahweh said to you [and that you promised Yahweh]. It will serve as a witness against you if you rebel against your God!”
Ши Иосуа а зис ынтрегулуй попор: „Ятэ, пятра ачаста ва фи марторэ ымпотрива ноастрэ, кэч а аузит тоате кувинтеле пе каре ни ле-а спус Домнул; еа ва фи марторэ ымпотрива воастрэ, ка сэ ну фиць некрединчошь Думнезеулуй востру.”
28 Then Joshua sent the people away, and all of them returned to their own areas/homes.
Апой Иосуа а дат друмул попорулуй ши с-а дус фиекаре ын моштениря луй.
29 Some time after that, Nun’s son Joshua, the faithful servant of Yahweh, died. He was 110 years old when he died.
Дупэ ачесте лукрурь, Иосуа, фиул луй Нун, робул Домнулуй, а мурит ын вырстэ де о сутэ зече ань.
30 The Israeli people buried his body on his own property in Timnath-Serah [town] town. It is north of Gaash Mountain in the hilly area of the tribe who were descendants of Ephraim.
Л-ау ынмормынтат ын цинутул каре-й кэзусе ла ымпэрцялэ, ла Тимнат-Серах, ын мунтеле луй Ефраим, ла мязэноапте де мунтеле Гааш.
31 The Israeli people served/worshiped Yahweh as long as Joshua was alive. After Joshua died, they continued serving/worshiping Yahweh while the elders who had experienced everything that Yahweh had done for the Israeli people were still alive.
Исраел а служит Домнулуй ын тот тимпул веций луй Иосуа ши ын тот тимпул веций бэтрынилор каре ау трэит дупэ Иосуа ши каре куноштяу тот че фэкусе Домнул пентру Исраел.
32 Joseph’s bones, which the Israeli people had brought with them from Egypt, were also buried at Shechem. The people buried them in the piece of land that Jacob had bought long ago for 100 pieces of silver from Hamor, the father of Shechem. That piece of land was in the area that was given to the people who were descendants of Ephraim and Manasseh, Joseph’s sons.
Оаселе луй Иосиф, пе каре ле адусесерэ копиий луй Исраел дин Еӂипт, ау фост ынгропате ла Сихем, ын партя цариний пе каре о кумпэрасе Иаков де ла фиий луй Хамор, татэл луй Сихем, ку о сутэ де кесита ши каре а ажунс моштениря фиилор луй Иосиф.
33 Eleazar, the Supreme Priest, the son of Aaron, also died. They buried his body at Gibeah, in the area that had been given to Eleazar’s son Phinehas, in the hilly area that belonged to the people who were descendants of Ephraim.
Елеазар, фиул луй Аарон, а мурит ши а фост ынгропат ла Гибеат-Финеас, каре фусесе дат фиулуй сэу Финеас, ын мунтеле луй Ефраим.
