Iosua 23
1 MAHOPE loa mai o ka hoomaha ana o Iehova i ka Iseraela, mai ko lakou mau enemi a pau, i puni ia lakou, ua elemakule loa o Iosua, ua nui no hoi kona mau la.
It happened after many days, when YHWH had given rest to Israel from their enemies all around, and Joshua was old and well advanced in years,
2 Houluulu ae la o Iosua i ka Iseraela a pau, i ko lakou mau lunakahiko a me ko lakou mau alii, a me ko lakou mau lunakanawai, a me ka poe luna o lakou, a olelo aku la oia ia lakou, Ua elemakule au, a ua nui no hoi ko'u mau la.
that Joshua called for all Israel, for their elders and for their heads, and for their judges and for their officers, and said to them, "I am old and well advanced in years.
3 A o oukou hoi, ua ike oukou i na mea a pau i hana mai ai o Iehova, ko oukou Akua i keia mau lahuikanaka a pau imua o oukou; no ka mea, o Iehova, ko oukou Akua ua kaua aku oia no oukou.
You have seen all that YHWH your God has done to all these nations because of you; for it is YHWH your God who has fought for you.
4 Aia hoi, ua hailona au no oukou i ko na lahuikanaka i koe, a me na lahuikanaka a pau a'u i anai aku ai mai Ioredane a hiki i ka moana nui, ma ke komohana o ka la, i mea hooili no ko oukou ohana.
Look, I have allotted to you these nations that remain, to be an inheritance for your tribes, from the Jordan, with all the nations that I have cut off, even to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun.
5 Na Iehova, na ko oukou Akua, e kipaku ia lakou, mai ko oukou alo aku, a e hoonalowale ia lakou imua o oukou; a e hooili mai i ko lakou aina no oukou, e like me ka olelo a Iehova, ko oukou Akua i olelo mai ai ia oukou.
And YHWH your God will himself thrust them out from before you, and drive them out of your sight, and he will send wild animals against them until he utterly destroys them and their kings from before you; and you will inherit their land, as YHWH your God spoke to you.
6 E hooikaika oukou e malama a e hana i na mea a pau i kakauia iloko o ka buke o ko kanawai o Mose. Mai huli oukou mai ia mea aku ma ka lima akau, aole hoi ma ka lima hema.
Therefore be very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that you not turn aside from it to the right hand or to the left;
7 Mai hele pu oukou me keia mau lahuikanaka, i ka poe i koe, mawaena o oukou; mai hoohiki hoi i ka inoa o ko lakou mau akua, aole hoi e hoohiki ma o lakou la: mai malama ia lakou, aole hoi e kulou oukou ia lakou:
that you not come 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 down yourselves to them;
8 Aka, e hoopili aku oukou ia Iehova, i ko oukou Akua, e like me ka oukou hana ana a hiki i keia la.
but hold fast to YHWH your God, as you have done to this day.
9 No ka mea, ua kipaku o Iehova mai ko oukou alo aku, i na lahuikanaka nui, a ikaika: a o oukou hoi, aole kanaka i ku imua o ko oukou alo a hiki wale mai i keia la.
For YHWH has driven great and strong nations out from before you. But as for you, no man has stood before you to this day.
10 Hookahi kanaka o oukou e alualu aku i ke tausani hookahi; no ka mea, o Iehova, ko oukou Akua, oia no ka mea nana e kaua aku no oukou, e like me kana elele mua ana mai ia oukou.
One man of you shall chase a thousand; for YHWH your God is he who fights for you, as he spoke to you.
11 E malama pono oukou ia oukou iho, e aloha aku ai ia Iehova i ko oukou Akua.
And be very watchful of yourselves to love YHWH your God.
12 No ka mea, ina e hoi hope iki oukou, a e hoopili i na lahuikanaka i koe e noho ana mawaena o oukou, a e mare pu me lakou, a hele iloko io lakou la, a hoi lakou iloko io oukou nei;
Else if you do at all go back, and hold fast to the remnant of these nations, even these who remain among you, and make marriages with them, and go in to them, and they to you;
13 E ike pono oukou, aole e kipaku hou aku o Iehova, ko oukou Akua i keia mau lahuikanaka, mai ko oukou alo aku; aka, e lilo lakou i mau pahele no oukou, a he mea upiki, a he mea hahau ma ko oukou mau aoao, a i mea ooi ma ko oukou mau maka, a make wale oukou, mai keia aina maikai aku a Iehova ko oukou Akua i haawi mai ai no oukou.
know for a certainty that YHWH your God will no longer drive these nations from out of your sight; but they shall be a snare and a trap to you, a scourge in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from off this good land which YHWH your God has given you.
14 Aia hoi, i keia la, e hele ana au ma ka aoao o ko ka honua a pau; a ua ike hoi oukou ma ko oukou naau a pau, a me ko oukou uhane a pau, aole i haule ka mea hookahi o na olelo maikai a pau a Iehova ko oukou Akua i olelo mai ai ia oukou, aka, ua ko io ia oukou na mea a pau, aole i haule ka mea hookahi.
Look, today I am going the way of all the earth. You know in all your hearts and in all your souls that not one thing has failed of all the good things which YHWH your God spoke concerning you. All have happened to you. Not one thing has failed of it.
15 A e like me ka hiki ana mai ia oukou na mea maikai a pau a Iehova ko oukou Akua i olelo mai ai ia oukou; pela no e hoouka mai ai o Iehova i na mea ino a pau maluna o oukou, a hiki i kona hoopau ana mai ia oukou, mai keia aina maikai aku, a Iehova ko oukou Akua i haawi mai ai no oukou.
It shall happen that as all the good things have come on you of which YHWH your God spoke to you, so YHWH will bring on you all the evil things, until he has destroyed you from off this good land which YHWH your God has given you,
16 Aia haihai oukou i ka berita a Iehova ko oukou Akua, i ka mea ana i kauoha mai ai ia oukou, a e hele oukou, a e malama aku i na 'kua e, a e kulou hoi ia lakou; alaila e a mai no ka huhu o Iehova ia oukou, a e make koke auanei, mai ka aina maikai aku, ana i haawi mai ai no oukou.
when you disobey the covenant of YHWH your God, which he commanded you, and go and serve other gods, and bow down yourselves to them. Then the anger of YHWH will be kindled against you, and you will perish quickly from off the good land which he has given to you."
