Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua ki he kakai kotoa pē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Naʻe nofo hoʻomou ngaahi tamai ʻi muʻa ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻoe vai lahi, ʻio, ʻa Tela, ko e tamai ʻa ʻEpalahame mo e tamai ʻa Nehoa: pea naʻa nau tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe.
3 Ke mekplɔ Abraham, mia tɔgbui, tso anyigba ma dzi, na wòtso tɔsisi la, eye mekplɔe va Kanaanyigba dzi. Mena eƒe dzidzimeviwo sɔ gbɔ to via Isak dzi.
Pea naʻaku ʻomi hoʻomou tamai ko ʻEpalahame mei he potu ʻe taha ʻoe vai lahi, ʻo tataki ia ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, pea u fakatokolahi hono hako, ʻo foaki kiate ia ʻa ʻAisake.
4 Isak ƒe vi siwo menae la woe nye, Yakob kple Esau. Metsɔ anyigba si ƒo xlã Seir to la na Esau, ke Yakob kple viawo yi Egipte.
Pea naʻe foaki kia ʻAisake ʻa Sēkope mo ʻIsoa: peau foaki kia ʻIsoa ʻae moʻunga ko Seia, ke ne maʻu ia; ka ko Sēkope mo ʻene fānau naʻa nau ʻalu hifo ki ʻIsipite.
5 “‘Meɖo Mose kple Aron ɖa be woahe dɔvɔ̃ dziŋɔwo va Egipte dzi, eye mekplɔ nye ameawo dzoe abe ablɔɖemewo ene.
Pea naʻaku fekau ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone foki, peau fakamamahiʻi ʻa ʻIsipite, ʻo fakatatau mo ia ʻaia naʻaku fai ʻiate kinautolu: pea hili ia naʻaku fakahaofi ʻakimoutolu.
6 Ke esi woɖo Ƒu Dzĩ la nu la, Egiptetɔwo kplɔ wo ɖo kple tasiaɖamwo kple sɔwo,
Pea naʻaku ʻomi hoʻomou ngaahi tamai mei ʻIsipite: pea naʻa mou haʻu ki he tahi: pea naʻe tuli hoʻomou ngaahi tamai ʻe he kakai ʻIsipite ʻaki ʻae ngaahi saliote mo e kau tangata heka hoosi ʻo aʻu ki he Tahi Kulokula.

Pea kuo u foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae fonua ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te mou ngāue ke maʻu, mo e ngaahi kolo naʻe ʻikai te mou langa, pea ʻoku mou nofo ʻi ai; ko e ngaahi ngoue vaine, mo e ngaahi ngoue ʻolive ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te mou tō ʻoku mou kai mei ai.’
14 “Eya ta mivɔ̃ Yehowa, eye miasubɔe kple dzi blibo le nyateƒe me. Miɖe asi le mawu siwo mia tɔgbuiwo subɔ esime wonɔ Frat tɔsisi la godo kple Egipte la ŋu. Misubɔ Yehowa ɖeɖe ko.

15 Ke ne Yehowa subɔsubɔ medze mia ŋu o la, ekema mitia ame si miasubɔ la egbea! Ɖe miasubɔ mia tɔgbuiwo ƒe mawu siwo wosubɔ le Frat tɔsisi la godo loo alo Amoritɔwo ƒe mawuwo le anyigba sia dzia? Ke nye kple nye aƒe ya, míasubɔ Yehowa!”
Pea kapau ʻoku matamata kovi kiate kimoutolu ke tauhi ʻa Sihova, mou fili he ʻaho ni ʻaia te mou tauhi; pe ko e ngaahi ʻotua ʻaia naʻe tauhi ʻe hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻoe vai lahi, pe ki he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻae fonua ʻonautolu ʻoku mou nofo ai: ka ko au mo hoku fale te mau tauhi ʻa Sihova.
16 Ameawo ɖo eŋu be, “Míagblẽ Yehowa ɖi gbeɖe asubɔ mawu bubuwo o,
Pea naʻe lea ʻae kakai ʻo pehē, “Ke taʻofi ʻe he ʻOtua ke ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa mau liʻaki ʻa Sihova, ke tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe;

18 Yehowae nya Amoritɔwo kple dukɔ bubu siwo nɔ anyigba sia dzi. Ɛ̃, míetia Yehowa, elabena eya ɖeka koe nye Mawu.”
Pea naʻe kapusi ʻe Sihova mei hotau ʻao ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻio, ʻae kau ʻAmoli ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻi he fonua: ko ia foki te mau tauhi ʻa Sihova; he ko homau ʻOtua ia.”
19 Yosua ɖo eŋu na ameawo be, “Miate ŋu asubɔ Yehowa o, elabena Mawu le kɔkɔe, eye wòʋãa ŋu, matsɔ miaƒe aglãdzedze kple nu vɔ̃wo ake mi o.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua ki he kakai, “ʻOku ʻikai te mou faʻa tauhi ʻa Sihova; he ko e ʻOtua māʻoniʻoni ia; ko e ʻOtua fuaʻa ia; ʻe ʻikai te ne fakamolemole hoʻomou ngaahi talangataʻa mo hoʻomou ngaahi angahala.

Kapau ʻoku mou liʻaki ʻa Sihova, pea tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe, te ne foki mai ʻo tautea ʻakimoutolu, ʻo fakaʻauha ʻakimoutolu, hili ʻa ʻene fai lelei kiate kimoutolu.”
21 Ameawo ɖo eŋu be, “Gbeɖe, Yehowa ko miasubɔ.”
Pea naʻa nau tala kia Siosiua, “ʻE ʻikai; ka te mau tauhi ʻa Sihova.”
22 Yosua yi edzi be, “Miawo ŋutɔ miese nu si miegblɔ. Mielɔ̃ be yewoasubɔ Yehowaa?” Woɖo eŋu be, “Ɛ̃, míenye ɖasefowo.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua ki he kakai, “Ko e kau fakamoʻoni ʻakimoutolu kiate kimoutolu kuo mou fili ʻa Sihova moʻomoutolu ke tauhi ia.” Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko e kau fakamoʻoni ʻakimautolu.”
23 Yosua gblɔ be, “Enyo, ekema miɖe asi le mawu siwo katã le mia si fifia la ŋu, eye miaɖo to Aƒetɔ, Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu la.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Pea ko eni, tukuange ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu, pea mou fakatokangaʻi homou loto kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.”
24 Ameawo ɖo eŋu na Yosua be, “Ɛ̃, míasubɔ, eye míaɖo to, Yehowa míaƒe Mawu ko!”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kia Siosiua, “Te mau tauhi ʻa Sihova ko homau ʻOtua, pea te mau fai talangofua ki hono leʻo.”
25 Ale Yosua bla nu kple wo gbe ma gbe le Sekem, eye wòtsɔ wo de nubabla mavɔ me kple Mawu.
Ko ia naʻe fai ai ʻe Siosiua ʻae fuakava mo e kakai ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻo ne fokotuʻu ʻae fekau maʻanautolu mo e tuʻutuʻuni ʻi Sikemi.

27 Eye Yosua gblɔ na ameawo katã be, “Kpe sia se nu siwo katã Yehowa gblɔ, eya ta anye ɖasefo atsi tsitre ɖe mia ŋu ne miewɔ Yehowa, miaƒe Mawu la ƒe gbe dzi o.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua ki he kakai kotoa pē, “Vakai, ko e fakamoʻoni ʻae maka ni kiate kitautolu; he kuo ne fanongo ki he lea kotoa pē ʻa Sihova ʻaia kuo ne folofolaʻaki kiate kitautolu: ko ia ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e fakamoʻoni, telia naʻa mou fakafisingaʻi homou ʻOtua.”
