< Joshua 3 >
1 And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and they journey from Shittim, and come in unto the Jordan, he and all the sons of Israel, and they lodge there before they pass over.
Iyyaasuu fi Israaʼeloonni hundinuu ganama barii Shixiim keessaa baʼanii gara Laga Yordaanos dhufan. Utuu gamatti hin ceʼin duras achi qubatan.
2 And it cometh to pass, at the end of three days, that the authorities pass over into the midst of the camp,
Bultii sadii booddee ajajjoonni loltootaa qubata keessa dedeemanii,
3 and command the people, saying, 'When ye see the ark of the covenant of Jehovah your God, and the priests, the Levites, bearing it, then ye journey from your place, and have gone after it;
akkana jedhanii namoota ajajan: “Isin yommuu taabota kakuu Waaqayyo Waaqa keessaniitii fi Lewwota luboota taʼan isaanii taaboticha baatan argitanitti iddoo keessanii kaatanii taaboticha faana buʼuu qabdu.
4 only, a distance is between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure; ye do not come near unto it, so that ye know the way in which ye go, for ye have not passed over in the way heretofore.'
Isin sababii duraan karaa kanaan hin darbiniif, karaa deemuun isinii malu ni beektu. Garuu isinii fi taaboticha gidduutti gargari fageenya gara dhundhuma kuma lama hambisaa; ittis hin dhiʼaatinaa.”
5 And Joshua saith unto the people, 'Sanctify yourselves, for to-morrow doth Jehovah do in your midst wonders.'
Iyyaasuunis uummataan, “Of qulqulleessaa; Waaqayyo bor gidduu keessanitti wantoota dinqisiisaa ni hojjetaatii” jedhe.
6 And Joshua speaketh unto the priests, saying, 'Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people;' and they take up the ark of the covenant, and go before the people.
Iyyaasuunis lubootaan, “Taabota kakuu fuudhaatii uummata dura darbaa” jedhe. Kanaafuu isaan taaboticha fuudhanii uummata dura darban.
7 And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, 'This day I begin to make thee great in the eyes of all Israel, so that they know that as I was with Moses I am with thee;
Waaqayyos Iyyaasuudhaan akkana jedhe; “Akka isaan akka ani akkuman Musee wajjin ture sana si wajjin jiru beekaniif, ani harʼa fuula Israaʼeloota hundaa duratti nama guddaa si gochuu nan jalqaba.
8 and thou, thou dost command the priests bearing the ark of the covenant, saying, When ye come unto the extremity of the waters of the Jordan — in the Jordan ye stand.'
Atis luboota taabota kakuu baataniin, ‘Isin yommuu qarqara bishaan Yordaanos geessanitti, dhaqaatii laga keessa dhadhaabadhaa’ jedhi.”
9 And Joshua saith unto the sons of Israel, 'Come nigh hither, and hear the words of Jehovah your God;
Iyyaasuunis Israaʼelootaan akkana jedhe; “As kottaatii dubbii Waaqayyo Waaqa keessanii dhagaʼaa.
10 and Joshua saith, 'By this ye know that the living God [is] in your midst, and He doth certainly dispossess from before you the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Hivite, and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Jebusite:
Akki isin itti akka Waaqni jiraataan gidduu keessan jiruu fi akka inni dhugumaan Kanaʼaanota, Heetota, Hiiwota, Feerzota, Girgaashota, Amoorotaa fi Yebuusota fuula keessan duraa ariʼee baasu beektan kanaa dha.
11 lo, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth is passing over before you into Jordan;
Kunoo, taabonni kakuu Gooftaa lafa hundumaa isin duraan Yordaanos ni seena.
12 and now, take for you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, one man — one man for a tribe;
Kanaafuu amma gosoota Israaʼel keessaa nama kudha lama jechuunis tokkoo tokkoo gosaa keessaa nama tokko tokko filadhaa.
13 and it hath been, at the resting of the soles of the feet of the priests bearing the ark of Jehovah, Lord of all the earth, in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan are cut off — the waters which are coming down from above — and they stand — one heap.'
Akkuma luboonni taabota Waaqayyo Gooftaa lafa hundaa baatan miilla isaanii Yordaanos keessa seensisaniin, bishaan isaa kan gubbaadhaa gad yaaʼu ni cita; tuulamees ol dhaabata.”
14 And it cometh to pass, in the journeying of the people from their tents to pass over the Jordan, and of the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people,
Kanaaf yommuu namoonni laga Yordaanos ceʼuuf qubata isaanii keessaa baʼanitti, luboonni taabota kakuu baatanii isaan dura darbanii deeman.
15 and at those bearing the ark coming in unto the Jordan, and the feet of the priests bearing the ark have been dipped in the extremity of the waters (and the Jordan is full over all its banks all the days of harvest) —
Yeroo midhaan galfamu hunda lagni Yordaanos guutee irra dhangalaʼa. Taʼus akkuma luboonni taaboticha baatan Yordaanos gaʼanii miilli isaanii qarqara bishaanii tuqeen,
16 that the waters stand; those coming down from above have risen — one heap, very far above Adam the city, which [is] at the side of Zaretan; and those going down by the sea of the plain, the Salt Sea, have been completely cut off; and the people have passed through over-against Jericho;
bishaan burqaa oliitii dhufu yaaʼuu dhiise. Iddoo magaalaa Addaam jedhamu kan Zaaretaan biraa sana irraa fagaatee tuulamee dhaabate; bishaan gara Galaana Arabbaatti yookaan Galaana soogiddaatti gad yaaʼus guutumaan guutuutti cite. Kanaafuu namoonni fuullee Yerikootiin gara gamaatti ceʼan.
17 and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah stand on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan — established, and all Israel are passing over on dry ground till that all the nation hath completed to pass over the Jordan.
Yeroo Israaʼeloonni hundi darbaa turanitti luboonni taabota kakuu Waaqayyoo baatan sun hamma sabni guutumaan guutuutti lafa goggogaa irra ceʼutti walakkaa Yordaanos keessa qajeelanii lafa goggogaa irra dhaabatan.
