Josue 4
1 Idi naballasiw dagiti amin a tattao ti Jordan, kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Josue,
When all the nation had completely crossed over the Jordan, the LORD spoke to Joshua, saying,
2 “Mangpilika iti sangapulo ket dua a lallaki manipud kadagiti tattao, maysa a lalaki iti tunggal tribu.
“Take twelve men out of the people, a man out of every tribe,
3 Itedmo daytoy a bilin kadakuada: 'Mangalakayo iti 12 a bato idiay tengnga ti Jordan a pagtaktakderan dagiti padi, ket itugotyo dagitoy ken idissoyo iti lugar a pagdagusanyo ita a rabii.'”
and command them, saying, ‘Take from out of the middle of the Jordan, out of the place where the priests’ feet stood firm, twelve stones, carry them over with you, and lay them down in the place where you will camp tonight.’”
4 Inayaban ngarud ni Josue dagiti sangapulo ket dua a lallaki a pinilina, maysa a lalaki iti tunggal tribu.
Then Joshua called the twelve men whom he had prepared of the children of Israel, a man out of every tribe.
5 Kinunana kadakuada, “Mapankayo idiay tengnga ti Jordan iti sangoanan ti lakasa ni Yahweh a Diosyo, tunggal maysa kadakayo ket mangbaklay iti bato - sangapulo ket dua a bato a naisimpa a kas iti bilang dagiti tribu dagiti tattao ti Israel.
Joshua said to them, “Cross before the ark of the LORD your God into the middle of the Jordan, and each of you pick up a stone and put it on your shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel;
6 Agbalinto daytoy a pagilasinanyo iti nagtetengngaanyo ta inton saludsodendakayo dagiti annakyo kadagiti umay nga aldaw, 'Ania ti kayat a sawen dagitoy a bato kadakayo?'
that this may be a sign among you, that when your children ask in the future, saying, ‘What do you mean by these stones?’
7 Ket kunaenyonto kadakuada, 'Nagsina dagiti danum ti Jordan iti sangoanan ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh. Idi nailabas daytoy iti Jordan, nagsina dagiti danum ti Jordan. Isu nga agbalin dagitoy a batbato a pakalaglagipan iti agnanayon kadagiti tattao ti Israel.'”
then you shall tell them, ‘Because the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the LORD’s covenant. When it crossed over the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. These stones shall be for a memorial to the children of Israel forever.’”
8 Inaramid dagiti tattao ti Israel a kas iti imbilin ni Josue, ket nangalada iti sangapulo ket dua a bato manipud idiay tengnga ti Jordan, kas kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Josue, naisimpa dagitoy iti isu met laeng a bilang dagiti tribu dagiti tattao ti Israel. Inawitda dagitoy agingga iti lugar a pagdagusanda iti rabii ket indissoda dagitoy sadiay.
The children of Israel did as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the middle of the Jordan, as the LORD spoke to Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel. They carried them over with them to the place where they camped, and laid them down there.
9 Ket nangisimpa ni Josue iti sangapulo ket dua a bato idiay tengnga ti Jordan, iti lugar a nagtakderan dagiti padi a nangawit iti lakasa ti tulag. Ket daydiay a pakalaglagipan ket adda pay laeng agingga ita nga aldaw.
Joshua set up twelve stones in the middle of the Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests who bore the ark of the covenant stood; and they are there to this day.
10 Nagtakder dagiti padi a nangawit iti lakasa idiay tengnga ti Jordan agingga a naipatungpal amin nga imbilin ni Yahweh kenni Josue nga ibagana kadagiti tattao, segun iti amin nga imbilin ni Moises kenni Josue. Dinardaras dagiti tattao a binallasiw ti karayan.
For the priests who bore the ark stood in the middle of the Jordan until everything was finished that the LORD commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua; and the people hurried and passed over.
11 Idi naballasiw dagiti amin a tattao ti karayan, nagballasiw dagiti padi a mangaw-awit it lakasa ni Yahweh iti imatang dagiti tattao.
When all the people had completely crossed over, the LORD’s ark crossed over with the priests in the presence of the people.
12 Nagballasiw a naurnos a kasla maysa nga armada ti tribu ni Ruben, Gad, ken ti kagudua a tribu ni Manases iti sangoanan dagiti tattao ti Israel, a kas iti imbaga ni Moises kadakuada.
The children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh crossed over armed before the children of Israel, as Moses spoke to them.
13 Agarup 40, 000 a lallaki a sisasagana a makigubat ti nagballasiw iti imatang ni Yahweh, para iti gubat idiay kapatagan ti Jerico.
About forty thousand men, ready and armed for war, passed over before the LORD to battle, to the plains of Jericho.
14 Iti dayta nga aldaw, inaramid ni Yahweh ni Josue a naindaklan iti panagkita iti amin nga Israel. Rinaemda isuna iti amin nga al-aldawna a kas iti panangraemda kenni Moises.
On that day, the LORD magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they feared Moses, all the days of his life.
15 Ket nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Josue,
The LORD spoke to Joshua, saying,
16 “Bilinem dagiti padi a mangaw-awit iti lakasa ti tulag a sumang-atda manipud iti Jordan.”
“Command the priests who bear the ark of the covenant, that they come up out of the Jordan.”
17 Binilin ngarud ni Josue dagiti padi, “Sumang-atkayo manipud iti Jordan.”
Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying, “Come up out of the Jordan!”
18 Idi nakasang-at manipud iti tengnga ti Jordan dagiti padi a mangaw-awit iti lakasa ni Yahweh, ken naingaton dagiti sakada manipud iti rabaw ti namaga a daga, nagsubli dagiti danum ti Jordan kadagiti ayanda ket nagayus kadagiti ig-igid daytoy, kas iti kasisigud dagitoy kalpasan iti uppat nga aldaw.
When the priests who bore the ark of the LORD’s covenant had come up out of the middle of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests’ feet had been lifted up to the dry ground, the waters of the Jordan returned to their place, and went over all its banks, as before.
19 Simmang-at dagiti tattao manipud iti Jordan iti maika-sangapulo nga aldaw iti umuna a bulan. Nagtalinaedda idiay Gilgal, iti dayaen ti Jerico.
The people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, on the east border of Jericho.
20 Impatakder ni Josue idiay Gilgal dagiti sangapulo ket dua a bato nga innalada idiay Jordan.
Joshua set up those twelve stones, which they took out of the Jordan, in Gilgal.
21 Kinunana kadagiti tattao ti Israel, “Inton saludsoden dagiti kaputotanyo dagiti ammada kadagiti tiempo nga umay, 'Ania dagitoy a batbato?'
He spoke to the children of Israel, saying, “When your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, ‘What do these stones mean?’
22 Ibagayo kadagiti annakyo, 'Ditoy ti nangballasiwan dagiti tattao iti Jordan iti rabaw ti namaga a daga.'
Then you shall let your children know, saying, ‘Israel came over this Jordan on dry land.
23 Pinamagaan ni Yahweh a Diosyo dagiti danum ti Jordan para kadakayo, agingga a nakaballasiwkayo, kas iti inaramid ni Yahweh a Diosyo idiay Baybay dagiti Runo, a pinamagaanna agingga a makaballasiwtayo amin,
For the LORD your God dried up the waters of the Jordan from before you until you had crossed over, as the LORD your God did to the Red Sea, which he dried up from before us, until we had crossed over,
24 tapno maammoan dagiti tattao ti daga a nabileg ti ima ni Yahweh, ken tapno raemenyonto ni Yahweh a Diosyo iti agnanayon.”
that all the peoples of the earth may know that the LORD’s hand is mighty, and that you may fear the LORD your God forever.’”
