1 Rĩrĩa andũ othe a rũrĩrĩ rũu maarĩkirie kũringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani, Jehova akĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ,
Ɛberɛ a ɔman no nyinaa twaa Yordan wieeɛ no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ,
2 “Thuura andũ ikũmi na eerĩ kuuma gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ aya o mũhĩrĩga mũndũ ũmwe,
“Yiyi mmarima dumienu firi ɔmanfoɔ no mu a ɔbaako biara firi abusuakuo no bi mu
3 na ũmeere moe mahiga ikũmi na meerĩ kuuma gatagatĩ ka Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani handũ harĩa athĩnjĩri-Ngai maarũgamĩte, mamakuue maringe namo mũrĩmo mũkamaige harĩa mũrĩraara ũtukũ ũyũ.”
na ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, wɔmfa aboɔ dumienu mfiri Yordan mfimfini nifa so wɔ baabi a na asɔfoɔ no gyina hɔ, na wɔnsoa mfa ntwa mmra mmɛgu baabi a mobɛtena anadwo yi.”
4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joshua agĩĩta andũ acio ikũmi na eerĩ arĩa aathuurĩte kuuma kũrĩ andũ a Isiraeli, o mũhĩrĩga mũndũ ũmwe,
Ɛnna Yosua frɛɛ mmarima dumienu a ɔyii wɔn firii Israelfoɔ no mu no a ɔbaako biara firi abusuakuo bi mu no,
5 akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova Ngai wanyu, mũthiĩ o gatagatĩ ka Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani. Mũndũ o mũndũ kũringana na mũigana wa mĩhĩrĩga ya Isiraeli, oe ihiga rĩmwe arĩigĩrĩre kĩande,
na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monkɔdi Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, adaka no anim mfa nkɔ Yordan mfimfini. Ɔbaako biara mfa ɛboɔ nto ne batiri so sɛdeɛ Israelfoɔ mmusuakuo no dodoɔ te,
6 rũtuĩke rũũri gatagatĩ-inĩ kanyu. Mahinda marĩa magooka, rĩrĩa ciana cianyu ikaamũũria atĩrĩ, ‘Gĩtũmi kĩa mahiga maya nĩ kĩĩ?’
na ɛnyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ wɔ mo mu. Sɛ daakye bi, mo mma bisa mo sɛ, ‘Saa aboɔ yi ase kyerɛ sɛn’ a,
7 Mũgaaciĩra atĩ gũtherera kwa maaĩ ma Jorodani nĩ gwatinithirio mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ithandũkũ rĩu rĩaringaga Jorodani-rĩ, maaĩ ma Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani nĩmatinithirio. Mahiga maya megũtuĩka kĩririkania gĩa kũririkanagia andũ a Isiraeli ũhoro ũcio nginya tene.”
monka nkyerɛ wɔn sɛ, Yordan asutene no twaeɛ wɔ Awurade apam adaka no anim. Ɛberɛ a Awurade apam adaka no twaa Yordan asutene no, asuo no weeɛ. Saa aboɔ yi bɛyɛ nkaedeɛ ama Israelfoɔ daa nyinaa.”
8 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli magĩĩka o ta ũrĩa maathĩtwo nĩ Joshua. Makĩoya mahiga ikũmi na meerĩ kuuma gatagatĩ ka Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani, kũringana na mũigana wa mĩhĩrĩga ya andũ a Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa Jehova eerĩte Joshua; nao magĩkuua mahiga macio nginya kambĩ yao, makĩmaiga kuo.
Enti, mmarima no yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Yosua kyerɛɛ wɔn no. Wɔfaa aboɔ dumienu firii Asubɔnten Yordan mfimfini a ɛboɔ baako biara gyina hɔ ma abusuakuo baako, sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Yosua no. Wɔsoa de kɔɔ baabi a wɔtenaa hɔ anadwo no na wɔsii nkaeɛdum wɔ hɔ.
9 Nake Joshua akĩhaanda mahiga macio ikũmi na meerĩ, akĩmaiganĩrĩra hau gatagatĩ ka Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani harĩa athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa maakuuĩte ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro maarũgamĩte. Namo marĩ ho nginya ũmũthĩ.
Yosua nso de aboɔ dumienu sii nkaeɛdum wɔ Yordan mfimfini wɔ baabi a na asɔfoɔ a wɔso apam Adaka no gyina hɔ. Ɛwɔ hɔ bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
10 Nĩgũkorwo athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa maakuuĩte ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro maikarire marũngiĩ hau gatagatĩ ka Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani nginya hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ meekire maũndũ marĩa mothe Jehova aathĩte Joshua, na magĩĩkwo o ta ũrĩa Musa aathĩte Joshua mekwo. Nao andũ magĩkĩhiũha, makĩringa mũrĩmo,
Asɔfoɔ a na wɔso adaka no gyinaa asuo no mfimfini hɔ ara kɔsii sɛ Awurade ahyɛdeɛ a ɔnam Mose so de maa Yosua no, wɔyɛɛ ne nyinaa. Saa ɛberɛ no, nnipa no yɛɛ ntɛm twaa asuo no kɔsii ne konkɔn so.
11 na andũ othe maarĩkia kũringa o ũguo, ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova o narĩo na athĩnjĩri-Ngai makĩringa makĩonagwo nĩ andũ othe.
Na ɛberɛ a obiara duruu asuo no fa hɔ no, asɔfoɔ no nso de Awurade adaka no tware kɔɔ ɛfa hɔ bi.
12 Andũ a mũhĩrĩga wa Rubeni, na wa Gadi, na nuthu ya Manase makĩringa mũrĩmo, meeohete indo cia mbaara, marĩ mbere ya andũ a Isiraeli, o ta ũrĩa Musa aamaathĩte.
Na akofoɔ a wɔahyɛ wɔn akodeɛ a wɔfiri Ruben abusuakuo mu, Gad abusuakuo mu ne Manase abusuakuo fa mu akofoɔ no dii Israelfoɔ no anim twaa Yordan sɛdeɛ Mose kyerɛɛ wɔn no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
13 Andũ ta 40,000 methagathagĩte na meeohete indo cia mbaara makĩringa mũrĩmo ũcio, marĩ mbere ya Jehova, magĩkinya werũ-inĩ wa Jeriko.
Saa akofoɔ yi, na wɔn dodoɔ bɛyɛ mpem aduanan a wɔasiesie wɔn ho ama ɔko. Wɔtwa kɔɔ Yeriko asase so wɔ Awurade anim.
14 Mũthenya ũcio, Jehova agĩtũũgĩria Joshua maitho-inĩ ma andũ a Isiraeli othe; nao makĩmwĩtigĩra matukũ mothe marĩa aatũũrire muoyo, o ta ũrĩa meetigĩrĩte Musa.
Saa ɛda no, Awurade yɛɛ Yosua kɛseɛ wɔ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa anim na Yosua nna a aka no nyinaa, Israelfoɔ de obuo ne anidie maa no sɛdeɛ wɔde obuo ne anidie maa Mose no.
15 Ningĩ Jehova akĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ,
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ,
16 “Atha athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa makuuĩte ithandũkũ rĩa Ũira mambate moimĩre Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani.”
“Hyɛ asɔfoɔ a Awurade apam adaka no so wɔn no sɛ, wɔmfiri subɔnhwa no mu hɔ mmra.”
17 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joshua agĩatha athĩnjĩri-Ngai acio, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ambatai mumĩre Jorodani.”
Enti, Yosua hyɛɛ wɔn.
18 Nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai makĩambata, makiuma rũũĩ makuuĩte ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova. Maarĩkia gũkinyithia magũrũ mao thĩ nyũmũ o ũguo-rĩ, maaĩ ma Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani magĩcookana handũ hamo, ningĩ makĩiyũra hũgũrũrũ ciaruo o ta mbere.
Na ɛberɛ a asɔfoɔ a wɔso Awurade apam adaka no firii subɔnhwa no mu ara pɛ na Asubɔnten Yordan sane ka sram so tɛntɛntɛn te sɛ kane no.
19 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya wa ikũmi wa mweri wa mbere, andũ acio makĩambata, makiuma Jorodani na makĩamba kambĩ mwena wa irathĩro wa Jeriko, o kũu Giligali.
Bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda ɛtɔ so edu no nnipa no foro firii Yordan kɔbɔɔ atenaeɛ wɔ Gilgal, Yeriko apueeɛ.
20 Nake Joshua akĩiga mahiga marĩa ikũmi na meerĩ maarutĩtwo Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani kũu Giligali.
Gilgal hɔ na Yosua boaa aboɔ dumienu a wɔde firi Asubɔnten Yordan mu baeɛ no ano.
21 Akĩĩra andũ a Isiraeli atĩrĩ, “Mahinda marĩa magooka, rĩrĩa njiaro cianyu ikooria maithe ma cio atĩrĩ, ‘Ĩ gĩtũmi kĩa mahiga maya nĩ kĩĩ?’
Afei, Yosua ka kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, “Daakye bi mo mma bɛbisa sɛ, ‘Saa aboɔ yi kyerɛ sɛn?’
22 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkamenyithia ciana cianyu ũhoro, mũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Andũ a Isiraeli maaringire Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani rũhũĩte rũgatuĩka thĩ nyũmũ.’
Na mo nso moaka akyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Ɛha ne beaeɛ a Israelfoɔ twaa Yordan wɔ asase wesee so no.’
23 Nĩgũkorwo Jehova Ngai wanyu nĩahũithirie maaĩ ma Jorodani mbere yanyu nginya rĩrĩa mwarikire kũringa. Jehova Ngai wanyu eekire Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani o ta ũrĩa eekire Iria Itune rĩrĩa aarĩhũithirie mbere iitũ nginya rĩrĩa twarĩkirie kũringa.
Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, maa nsuo no wee wɔ mo anim na ɔkɔɔ so ma ɛweeɛ ara kɔsii sɛ mo nyinaa twareeɛ, sɛdeɛ ɔyɛeɛ wɔ Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no. Ɔmaa no weeɛ ara kɔsii sɛ yɛn nyinaa twareeɛ.
24 Eekire ũguo nĩgeetha andũ othe a thĩ mamenye atĩ guoko kwa Jehova kũrĩ hinya mũno, na nĩgeetha mũtũũre mwĩtigĩrĩte Jehova Ngai wanyu nginya tene.”
Ɔyɛɛ yei sɛdeɛ aman a wɔwɔ ewiase nyinaa bɛhunu Awurade tumi na mo nso moasuro Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, daa nyinaa.”
