Therfor Josue roos bi nyyt, and mouede tentis; and thei yeden out of Sechym, and camen to Jordan, he and alle the sones of Israel, and dwelliden there thre daies.
2 Mgbe ụbọchị atọ gasịrị, ndịisi ụmụ Izrel gabigara jegharịa nʼetiti ọmụma ụlọ ikwu ahụ,
And whanne tho daies weren passid, crieris yeden thorouy the myddis of tentis,
3 nye ha iwu sị, “Mgbe unu hụrụ igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, ka ndị nchụaja, ụmụ Livayị, bulitere ya, unu onwe unu ga-esi nʼebe unu nọ bilie soro ha nʼazụ.
and bigunnen to crie, Whanne ye seen the arke of boond of pees of youre Lord God, and the preestis of the generacioun of Leuy berynge it, also rise ye, and sue the biforgoeris;
4 Ma a ga-enwe oke nʼetiti unu na ha, ihe dịka otu kilomita site nʼebe igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ dị. Unu agaghị abịaru ya nso. Nke a bụ maka ị mara ụzọ unu ga-eso, nʼihi na unu esibeghị nʼụzọ a gaa ije mbụ.”
and a space of twey thousynde cubitis be bitwixe you and the arke, that ye moun se fer, and knowe bi what weie ye schulen entre, for ye `yeden not bifore bi it; and be ye war, that ye neiye not to the arke.
5 Joshua gwara ndị Izrel sị, “Doonụ onwe unu nsọ, nʼihi na echi ka Onyenwe anyị ga-eme oke ihe ebube dị iche iche nʼetiti unu.”
And Josue seide to the puple, Be ye halewid, for to morew the Lord schal make merueilis among you.
6 Joshua gwara ndị nchụaja sị ha, “Bulienụ igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, gabiga nʼihu ndị Izrel.” Ha buliri igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, bido ịga nʼihu ụmụ Izrel.
And Josue seide to the preestis, Take ye the arke of the boond of pees `of the Lord, and go ye bifor the puple. Whiche filliden the heestis, and tooken the arke, and yeden bifor hem.
7 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Joshua sị, “Taa, ka m ga-amalite ime ka ị dị ukwuu nʼanya ụmụ Izrel niile, ka ha niile mata na dịka m si nọnyere Mosis, otu a ka m ga-esi nọnyere gị.
And the Lord seide to Josue, To dai Y schal bigynne to enhaunse thee bifor al Israel, that thei wite, that as Y was with Moises, so Y am also with thee.
8 Ị ga-enye ndị nchụaja bụ ndị na-ebu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ iwu si, ‘Mgbe unu ruru nʼọnụ mmiri osimiri Jọdan, banyekwanụ gaa guzo nʼime osimiri ahụ.’”
Forsothe comaunde thou to preestis, that beren the arke of bond of pees, and seie thou to hem, Whanne ye han entrid in to a part of the watir of Jordan, stonde ye therynne.
9 Mgbe ahụ, Joshua gwara ụmụ Izrel niile sị, “Bịanụ nso, bịanụ nụrụ okwu niile nke Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu.
And Josue seide to the sones of Israel, Neiye ye hidur, and here ye the word of youre Lord God.
10 Otu a ka unu ga-esi mata nʼezie na Chineke dị ndụ nọ nʼetiti unu, unu ga-amatakwa na ọ ghaghị ịnapụ ndị Kenan, na ndị Het, na ndị Hiv, na ndị Periz, na ndị Gigash, na ndị Amọrait, na ndị Jebus ala ha nʼihu unu.
And eft he seide, In this ye schulen wite that the Lord God lyuynge is in the myddis of you; and he schal distrye in youre siyt Cananey, Ethei, Euey, and Feresei, and Gergesei, and Jebusei, and Amorrei.
11 Lee, igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị, Onyenwe ụwa niile ga-agabiga nʼihu unu banye nʼime Jọdan.
Lo! the arke of boond of pees of the Lord of al erthe schal go bifor you thorouy Jordan.
12 Ugbu a sitenụ nʼebo Izrel niile họpụta ndị ikom iri na abụọ, site nʼebo ọbụla otu onye.
Make ye redi twelue men of the twelue lynagis of Israel, bi ech lynage o man.
13 Ngwangwa ndị nchụaja bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị, Onyenwe ụwa niile zọnyere ụkwụ na Jọdan, mmiri Jọdan nke si nʼebe elu ya na-arịdata ga-akwụsị ịsọ, guzoro dịka mgbidi.”
And whanne the preestis, that beren the arke of boond of pees of the Lord God of al erthe, han set the steppis of her feet in the watris of Jordan, the watris that ben lowere schulen renne doun, and schulen faile; forsothe the watris that comen fro aboue schulen stonde togidere in o gobet.
14 Ya mere, mgbe ndị Izrel sitere nʼụlọ ikwu ha bilie njem ịgabiga osimiri Jọdan, ndị nchụaja bụ igbe ọgbụgba ndụ buuru ha ụzọ na-aga ha nʼihu.
Therfor the puple yede out of her tabernaclis to passe Jordan; and the preestis that baren the arke of boond of pees yeden bifor the puple.
15 Nʼoge owuwe ihe ubi ọbụla, osimiri Jọdan na-etoju etoju, sọjukwaa akụkụ ya niile. Ma ngwangwa ndị nchụaja bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ a bịaruru nso zọnye ụkwụ ha nʼọnụ mmiri Jọdan,
And whanne the preestis entriden in to Jordan, and her feet weren dippid in the part of watir; forsothe Jordan `hadde fillid the brynkis of his trow in the tyme of `ripe corn;
16 mmiri si nʼelu elu osimiri ahụ kwụsịrị ịsọ, ọ gara elu tụkọta onwe ya dịka mgbidi nʼebe dị anya, nʼobodo a na-akpọ Adam, nke dị nso obodo Zaretan. Ebe mmiri nke na-eruda na-asọbanye osimiri Araba, ya bụ, osimiri Nnu kwụsịrị ịsọ kpamkpam. Ya mere, ndị Izrel gabigara na ncherita ihu Jeriko.
the watris yeden doun, and stoden in o place, and wexiden grete at the licnesse of an hil, and apperiden fer fro the citee that was clepid Edom, `til to the place of Sarthan; sotheli the watris that weren lowere yeden doun in to the see of wildirnesse, which is now clepid the deed see, `til the watris failiden outirli.
17 Ndị nchụaja bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị guzoro nʼala akọrọ nʼetiti Jọdan, Izrel niile gabigakwara tutu ruo mgbe mba ahụ niile gafesịrị nʼala akọrọ.
Forsothe the puple yede thorouy Jordan; and the preestis, that baren the arke of the boond of pees of the Lord, stoden gird on the drie erthe in the myddis of Jordan, and al the puple passide thorouy the drie trow.
