< Joshua 23 >
1 And it came to pass, a long time after that the LORD had given rest to Israel from all their enemies on all sides, that Joshua became old [and] advanced in age.
Erga barri dheeraan darbee Waaqayyos diinota isaan marsan hunda irraa Israaʼeloota boqochiisee booddee Iyyaasuun bara dheeraa jiraatee dulloome;
2 And Joshua called for all Israel, [and] for their elders, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers, and said to them, I am old [and] advanced in age:
innis Israaʼeloota hunda jechuunis maanguddoota isaanii, hooggantoota isaanii, abbootii murtii isaaniitii fi qondaaltota isaanii ofitti waamee akkana jedheen: “Kunoo ani bara dheeraa jiraadhee dulloomeera.
3 And ye have seen all that the LORD your God hath done to all these nations because of you; for the LORD your God [is] he that hath fought for you.
Isin mataan keessanuu waan Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan isiniif jedhee saboota kana godhe hundumaa argitaniirtu; Waaqayyo Waaqa keessantu isiniif lole.
4 Behold, I have divided to you by lot these nations that remain, to be an inheritance for your tribes, from Jordan, with all the nations that I have cut off, even to the great sea westward.
Akka ani itti biyya saboota hafanii jechuunis biyya saboota ani Yordaanosii jalqabee hamma lixa Galaana Guddichaatti moʼadhe sanaa hunda gosoota keessaniif dhaala godhee kenne mee yaadadhaa.
5 And the LORD your God, he shall expel them from before you, and drive them from your sight; and ye shall possess their land, as the LORD your God hath promised to you.
Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan mataan isaa iyyuu fuula keessan duraa ariʼee isaan baasa. Inni fuula keessan duraa dhiibee isaan baasa; isin immoo akkuma Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan isin abdachiise sanatti biyya isaanii qabattu.
6 Be ye therefore very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that ye turn not aside from it [to] the right hand or [to] the left;
“Jabaadhaa dhaabadhaa; akka waan Kitaaba Seera Musee keessatti barreeffame hunda, utuu gara mirgaatti yookaan bitaatti hin jalʼatin jabeessaa eegaa.
7 That ye come not among these nations, these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their gods, nor cause to swear [by them], neither serve them, nor bow yourselves to them:
Saboota gidduu keessanitti hafan kanneenitti hin makaminaa; maqaa waaqota isaanii hin dhaʼinaa yookaan ittiin hin kakatinaa. Waaqota sana hin tajaajilinaa yookaan isaaniif hin sagadinaa.
8 But cleave to the LORD your God, as ye have done to this day.
Garuu akkuma hamma harʼaatti gochaa turtan sana jabaadhaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanitti maxxanaa.
9 For the LORD hath driven out from before you great nations and strong: but [as for] you, no man hath been able to stand before you to this day.
“Waaqayyo saboota gurguddaa fi humna qabeeyyii fuula keessan duraa ariʼee baaseera; hamma ammaatti namni tokko iyyuu isin dura dhaabachuu hin dandeenye.
10 One man of you shall chase a thousand: for the LORD your God, he [it is] that fighteth for you, as he hath promised you.
Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan akkuma waadaa gale sana isinii loluuf namni keessan tokkichi nama kuma tokko ariʼa.
11 Take good heed therefore to yourselves, that ye love the LORD your God.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan cimsaa jaalladhaa.
12 Else if ye do in any wise go back, and cleave to the remnant of these nations, [even] these that remain among you, and shall make marriages with them, and associate with them, and they with you:
“Garuu yoo isin karaa irraa jalʼattanii hambaa saboota gidduu keessan jiraatan kanneeniitti maxxantan, yoo isin isaaniin walfuutanii isaanitti makamtan,
13 Know for a certainty that the LORD your God will no more drive out [any of] these nations from before you; but they shall be snares and traps to you, and scourges in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye perish from off this good land which the LORD your God hath given you.
akka Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan siʼachi saboota kanneen isin duraa ariʼee hin baafne beekkadhaa. Qooda kanaa isaan hamma isin biyya gaarii Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan isiniif kenne kana keessaa dhumtanitti iddaa fi kiyyoo isinitti taʼu; dugda keessanitti qaccee, ija keessanittis qoraattii taʼu.
14 And behold, this day I [am] going the way of all the earth; and ye know in all your hearts and in all your souls, that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the LORD your God spoke concerning you: all are come to pass to you, [and] not one thing hath failed of it.
“Kunoo ani karaa lafa hundaa deemuufin jira. Akka waadaa gaarii Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan isiniif gale hunda keessaa tokko iyyuu utuu hin guutamin hafee hin jirre isin garaa keessan guutuu fi lubbuu keessan guutuudhaan ni beektu. Waadaan hundi guutameera; tokko iyyuu hin hirʼanne.
15 Therefore it shall come to pass, [that] as all good things are come upon you, which the LORD your God promised you; so shall the LORD bring upon you all evil things, until he hath destroyed you from off this good land which the LORD your God hath given you.
Garuu akkuma waadaan gaariin Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanii hundi guutame sana, Waaqayyo akkasuma waan hamaa ittiin isin sodaachise sana hunda hamma biyya gaarii isinii kenne kana irraa isin fixutti isinitti fida.
16 When ye have transgressed the covenant of the LORD your God, which he commanded you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them; then shall the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and ye shall perish quickly from off the good land which he hath given to you.
Yoo isin kakuu Waaqayyo Waaqni keessan isin ajaje cabsitanii dhaqxanii waaqota biraa tajaajiltanii fi isaaniif sagaddan dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo isinitti bobaʼa; isinis biyya gaarii inni isinii kenne sana irraa daftanii ni baddu.”
