< Joshua 24 >

1 And Josue gaderide alle the lynagis of Israel in to Sechem; and he clepide the grettere men in birthe, and the princes, and iugis, and maistris; and thei stoden in the siyt of the Lord.
Ningĩ Joshua agĩcookanĩrĩria mĩhĩrĩga yothe ya Isiraeli kũu Shekemu. Agĩĩta athuuri, na atongoria, na atuithania a maciira, na anene a Isiraeli, nao magĩthiĩ makĩrũgama mbere ya Ngai.
2 And he spak thus to the puple, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Youre fadris dwelliden at the bigynnyng biyende the flood Eufrates, Thare, the fadir of Abraham, and Nachor, and thei serueden alien goddis.
Nake Joshua akĩĩra andũ othe atĩrĩ, “Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Tene mũno maithe manyu, nĩo Tera ithe wa Iburahĩmu na Nahoru, maatũũraga mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa Rũũĩ rwa Farati na makahooyaga ngai ingĩ.
3 Therfor Y took youre fadir Abraham fro the coostis of Mesopotanye, and Y brouyte hym in to the lond of Canaan; and Y multipliede `the seed of hym,
No nĩndarutire ithe wanyu Iburahĩmu, oime bũrũri ũcio ũrĩ mũrĩmo wa rũũĩ rũu rwa Farati, ngĩmũtongoria kũu Kaanani guothe, na ngĩmũhe njiaro nyingĩ. Nĩndamũheire Isaaka,
4 and Y yaf Isaac to hym; and eft Y yaf to Isaac, Jacob, and Esau, of whiche Y yaf to Esau the hil of Seir, to `haue in possessioun; forsothe Jacob and hise sones yeden doun in to Egipt.
nake Isaaka ngĩmũhe Jakubu na Esaũ. Nĩndagaĩire Esaũ bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Seiru, no Jakubu na ariũ ake magĩikũrũka magĩthiĩ Misiri.
5 And Y sente Moises and Aaron, and Y smoot Egipt with many signes and wondris,
“‘Ningĩ ngĩcooka ngĩtũma Musa na Harũni, na ngĩhũũra andũ a Misiri na maũndũ marĩa mothe ndeekire kũu, ngĩcooka ngĩmaruta kuo.
6 and Y ledde you and youre fadris out of Egipt. And ye camen to the see, and Egipcians pursueden youre fadris with charis, and multitude of knyytis, `til to the Reed See.
Rĩrĩa ndaarutire maithe manyu kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, nĩmwakinyire iria-inĩ, nao andũ a Misiri makĩmarũmĩrĩra na ngaari cia ita, na andũ mahaicĩte mbarathi o nginya Iria Itune.
7 Forsothe the sones of Israel crieden to the Lord, and he settide derknessis bitwixe you and Egipcians; and he brouyte the see on hem, and hilide hem. Youre iyen sien alle thingis, whiche Y dide in Egipt. And ye dwelliden in wildirnesse in myche tyme.
Nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩkaĩra Jehova amateithie, nake agĩĩkĩra nduma gatagatĩ kanyu na andũ a Misiri; ningĩ agĩtũma iria rĩmakorere, akĩmathika narĩo. Nĩmweyoneire na maitho manyu ũrĩa ndeekire andũ a Misiri. Ningĩ mũgĩcooka mũgĩtũũra werũ-inĩ matukũ maingĩ.
8 And Y brouyte you in to the lond of Ammorrei, that dwellide biyende Jordan; and whanne thei fouyten ayens you, Y bitook hem in to youre hondis, and ye hadden in possessioun `the lond of hem, and ye killiden hem.
“‘Ningĩ ngĩmũtwara bũrũri wa Aamori arĩa maatũũraga mwena wa irathĩro wa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani. Nao makĩrũa na inyuĩ na niĩ ngĩmaneana moko-inĩ manyu. Nĩndamaanangire mamweherere, na inyuĩ mũkĩĩgwatĩra bũrũri wao ũgĩtuĩka wanyu.
9 Sotheli Balach, the sone of Sephor, the king of Moab, roos, and fauyt ayens Israel; and he sente, and clepide Balaam, the sone of Beor, that he schulde curse you.
Na rĩrĩa Balaki mũrũ wa Ziporu mũthamaki wa Moabi eeharagĩria kũrũa na Isiraeli-rĩ, nĩatũmanĩire Balamu mũrũ wa Beori nĩguo oke amũrume.
10 And Y nolde here hym, but ayenward bi hym Y blesside you, and delyuerede you fro hise hondis.
No niĩ ndingĩathikĩrĩirie Balamu; nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩkĩrĩrĩria kũmũrathima maita maingĩ, na niĩ ngĩmũhonokia kuuma moko-inĩ make.
11 And ye passiden Jordan, and camen to Jerico; and men of that citee fouyten ayens you, Ammorrei, and Feresei, and Cananei, Ethei, and Gergesei, and Euei, and Jebusei; and Y bitook hem in to youre hondis.
“‘Ningĩ mũkĩringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani na mũgĩkinya Jeriko. Nao andũ a Jeriko makĩrũa na inyuĩ, o ta ũrĩa Aamori, na Aperizi, na Akaanani, na Ahiti, na Agirigashi, na Ahivi, na Ajebusi o nao nĩmarũire na inyuĩ, no niĩ ngĩmaneana moko-inĩ manyu.
12 And Y sente flies with venemouse tongis bifor you, and Y castide hem out of her places; Y kyllide twei kyngis of Ammorreis, not in thi swerd and bowe.
Ngĩcooka ngĩrekia magi marĩ mboora mathiĩ mbere yanyu, marĩa maamaingatire mamweherere, o hamwe na athamaki arĩa eerĩ a Aamori. Ti inyuĩ mwamaingatire na rũhiũ rwanyu rwa njora kana na ũta wanyu.
13 And Y yaf to you the lond in which ye traueiliden not, and citees whiche ye bildiden not, that ye schulden dwelle in tho, and vyneris, and places of olyue trees, whiche ye plauntiden not.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩmũhe bũrũri mũtaanogeire na matũũra mũtaakĩte; na nĩkuo mũtũũraga, mũkĩrĩĩaga maciaro ma mĩgũnda ya mĩthabibũ na mĩtamaiyũ ĩrĩa mũtaahaandire.’
14 Now therfor drede ye the Lord, and serue ye hym with perfite herte and moost trewe; and do ye awei the goddis, to whiche youre fadris seruyden in Mesopotanye, and in Egipt; and serue ye the Lord.
“Na rĩrĩ, mwĩtigĩrei Jehova na mũmũtungatagĩre mũtarĩ na ũhinga, na mũrĩ ehokeku kũna. Eheriai ngai iria maithe manyu ma tene maahooyaga kũu mũrĩmo wa Rũũĩ rwa Farati, o na kũu bũrũri wa Misiri, na mũtungatagĩre o Jehova.
15 But if it semeth yuel to you, `that ye serue the Lord, chesyng is youun to you; chese ye to you to dai that, that plesith, whom ye owen most to serue; whether to goddis, whiche youre fadris serueden in Mesopotanye, whether to the goddis of Ammorreis, in whose lond ye dwellen; forsothe Y, and myn hows schulen serue the Lord.
No rĩrĩ, mũngĩona ũhoro ũcio wa gũtungatagĩra Jehova ta ũtamwagĩrĩire-rĩ, thuurai ũmũthĩ ũrĩa mũrĩtungatagĩra, mũmenye kana nĩ ngai iria maithe manyu maatungatagĩra kũu mũrĩmo wa rũũĩ, kana nĩ ngai cia Aamori arĩa ene bũrũri ũyũ mũtũũraga. No ha ũhoro wakwa mwene na nyũmba yakwa-rĩ, tũrĩtungatagĩra Jehova.”
16 And al the puple answeride and seide, Fer be it fro vs that we forsake the Lord, and serue alien goddis.
Nao andũ acio magĩcookia makiuga atĩrĩ, “Kũroaga gũtuĩka ũguo, atĩ tũtiganĩrie Jehova atĩ nĩguo tũtungatĩre ngai ingĩ!
17 `Oure Lord God hym silf ledde vs and oure fadris out of the lond of Egipt, fro the hows of seruage, and dide grete signes in oure siyt; and he kepte vs in al the weie, bi which we yeden, and in alle puplis, bi whiche we passiden; and he castide out alle folkis,
Nĩgũkorwo nĩ Jehova Ngai witũ we mwene watũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri hamwe na maithe maitũ, tũkiuma bũrũri ũcio wa ũkombo, na akĩringa ciama icio nene ũguo na tũgĩciona na maitho maitũ. Nĩaatũgitĩrire rũgendo-inĩ rwitũ ruothe kũrĩa twagereire, o na tũrĩ gatagatĩ ka ndũrĩrĩ ciothe kũrĩa twatuĩkanĩirie.
18 Ammorrei, the dwellere of the lond, in to which we entriden. Therfor we schulen serue the Lord, for he is `oure Lord God.
Nake Jehova nĩaingatire ndũrĩrĩ icio ciothe ciehere mbere iitũ, o hamwe na Aamori arĩa maatũũraga bũrũri-inĩ ũcio. Tondũ ũcio o na ithuĩ tũrĩtungatagĩra Jehova, nĩ ũndũ nĩwe Ngai witũ.”
19 And Josue seide to the puple, Ye moun not serue the Lord; for God is hooli, and a strong feruent louyere, and he foryyueth not youre trespassis and synnes.
Nake Joshua akĩĩra andũ acio atĩrĩ, “Mũtingĩhota gũtungatĩra Jehova. Jehova nĩ Ngai Mũtheru; we nĩ Ngai ũrĩ ũiru. Ndakamũrekera ũremi wanyu o na kana mehia manyu.
20 If ye forsaken the Lord, and seruen alien goddis, the Lord schal turne `hym silf, and schal turment you, and schal distrie, after that he hath youe goodis to you.
Mũngĩgaatiganĩria Jehova na mũtungatĩre ngai cia kũngĩ, nĩakamũgarũrũka na amũrehere mwanangĩko amũniine, o na amwĩkĩte maũndũ mega.”
21 And the puple seide to Josue, It schal not be so, as thou spekist, but we schulen serue the Lord.
No andũ acio makĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ, “Aca! Ithuĩ tũrĩtungatagĩra Jehova.”
22 And Josue seide to the puple, Ye ben witnessis, that ye han chose the Lord to you, that ye serue him. And thei answeriden, We ben witnessis.
Nake Joshua akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ ene mũrĩ aira a ũguo mwoiga, atĩ nĩmwathuura gũtungatagĩra Jehova.” Nao makĩmũcookeria, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, ithuĩ tũrĩ aira.”
23 Therfor, he seide, Now do ye awei alien goddis fro the myddis of you, and bowe ye youre hertis to the Lord God of Israel.
Joshua akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Rĩu-rĩ, kĩeheriei ngai cia kũngĩ iria irĩ thĩinĩ wanyu, na mũheane ngoro cianyu biũ harĩ Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli.”
24 And the puple seide to Josue, We schulen serue `oure Lord God, and we schulen be obedient to hise heestis.
Nao andũ acio makĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ tũrĩtungatagĩra Jehova Ngai witũ na tũmwathĩkagĩre.”
25 Therfor Josue smoot a boond of pees in that dai, and settide forth to the puple comaundementis and domes in Sichen.
Mũthenya o ro ũcio Joshua agĩthondekera andũ kĩrĩkanĩro, na akĩmandĩkĩra kĩrĩra kĩa watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo na mawatho, marĩ o kũu Shekemu.
26 And he wroot alle these wordis in the book of Goddis lawe. And he took a greet stoon, and puttide it vndur an ook, that was in the seyntuarie of the Lord.
Nake Joshua akĩandĩka maũndũ macio Ibuku-inĩ rĩa Watho wa Ngai. Agĩcooka akĩoya ihiga inene, akĩrĩrũgamia hau gĩtina-inĩ kĩa mũtĩ wa mũgandi hakuhĩ na handũ-harĩa-haamũre ha Jehova.
27 And he seide to al the puple, Lo! this stoon schal be to you in to witnessing, that ye herden alle the wordis of the Lord, whiche he spak to you, lest perauenture ye wolden denye aftirward, and lye to youre Lord God.
Akĩĩra andũ acio othe atĩrĩ, “Atĩrĩrĩ! Ihiga rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo rĩgũtuĩka mũira witũ wa ũrĩa tuoiga. Nĩrĩiguĩte ciugo ciothe iria Jehova atwĩrĩte. Nĩrĩo rĩgũtuĩka mũira wanyu mũngĩkaaga kwĩhokeka harĩ Ngai wanyu.”
28 And he lefte the puple, ech man in to his possessioun.
Nake Joshua agĩcooka akĩĩra andũ acio mathiĩ, o mũndũ acooke kũrĩa igai rĩake rĩarĩ.
29 And after these thingis Josue, the sone of Nun, the `seruaunt of the Lord, diede, an hundride yeer eld and ten.
Thuutha wa maũndũ macio Joshua mũrũ wa Nuni, ndungata ya Jehova, agĩkua arĩ na ũkũrũ wa mĩaka igana na ikũmi.
30 And thei birieden hym in the costis of his possessioun, in Thannath of Sare, which is set in the hil of Effraym, fro the north part of the hil Gaas.
Nao makĩmũthika kũu gĩthaka kĩa igai rĩake, o kũu Timinathu-Sera bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Efiraimu gathigathini wa kĩrĩma kĩa Gaashu.
31 And Israel seruede the Lord in alle the daies of Josue, and of the eldre men, that lyueden in long tyme aftir Josue, and whiche eldre men knewen alle the werkis of the Lord, whiche he hadde do in Israel.
Nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩtungatĩra Jehova matukũ-inĩ mothe ma Joshua na ma athuuri arĩa maatigirwo muoyo Joshua akua, o arĩa maamenyete maũndũ mothe marĩa Jehova ekĩte Nĩ ũndũ wa Isiraeli.
32 Also `the sones of Israel birieden the boonys of Joseph, whiche thei baren fro Egipt in Sichen, in the part of the feeld, which feeld Jacob bouyte of the sones of Emor, fadir of Sichen, for an hundrid yonge scheep; and it was in to possessioun of the sones of Joseph.
Namo mahĩndĩ ma Jusufu, marĩa andũ a Isiraeli maarehete kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri, magĩthikwo kũu Shekemu gacigo-inĩ ga gĩthaka kĩrĩa Jakubu aagũrĩte kuuma kũrĩ ariũ a Hamoru, ithe wa Shekemu. Rĩu nĩrĩo rĩatuĩkire igai rĩa njiaro cia Jusufu.
33 Also Eliazar, sone of Aaron, preest, diede; and Fynees and hise sones biryden hym in Gabaa, which was youun to hym in the hil of Efraym.
Nake Eleazaru mũrũ wa Harũni agĩkua na agĩthikwo kũu Gibea, kũrĩa kwagaĩirwo mũriũ Finehasi, o kũu bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Efiraimu.
