< Josue 4 >

1 Idi naballasiw dagiti amin a tattao ti Jordan, kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Josue,
And it comes to pass, when all the nation has completed to pass over the Jordan, that YHWH speaks to Joshua, saying,
2 “Mangpilika iti sangapulo ket dua a lallaki manipud kadagiti tattao, maysa a lalaki iti tunggal tribu.
“Take for yourselves twelve men out of the people, one man—one man out of a 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 up for yourselves from this [place], from the midst of the Jordan, from the established standing-place of the feet of the priests, twelve stones, and you have removed them over with you, and placed them in the lodging-place in which you lodge tonight.”
4 Inayaban ngarud ni Josue dagiti sangapulo ket dua a lallaki a pinilina, maysa a lalaki iti tunggal tribu.
And Joshua calls to the twelve men whom he prepared out of the sons of Israel, one man—one man out of a 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.
and Joshua says to them, “Pass over before the Ark of your God YHWH into the midst of the Jordan, and each of you lift up one stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the sons 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?'
so that this is a sign in your midst when your children ask hereafter, saying, What [are] these stones to you?
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.'”
That you have said to them, Because the waters of the Jordan were cut off, at the presence of the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH; in its passing over into the Jordan the waters of the Jordan were cut off; and these stones have been for a memorial to the sons of Israel for all time.”
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.
And the sons of Israel do so as Joshua commanded, and take up twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan, as YHWH has spoken to Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel, and remove them over with them to the lodging-place, and place them 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.
even the twelve stones Joshua has raised up out of the midst of the Jordan, the place of the standing of the feet of the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant, 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.
And the priests carrying the Ark are standing in the midst of the Jordan until the completion of the whole thing which YHWH commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua, and the people hurry and pass over.
11 Idi naballasiw dagiti amin a tattao ti karayan, nagballasiw dagiti padi a mangaw-awit it lakasa ni Yahweh iti imatang dagiti tattao.
And it comes to pass, when all the people have completed to pass over, that the Ark of YHWH passes over, and 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.
and the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and the half of the tribe of Manasseh, pass over, by fifties, before the sons of Israel, as Moses had spoken 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, armed ones of the host, passed over before YHWH for 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 YHWH has made Joshua great in the eyes of all Israel, and they fear him, as they feared Moses, all [the] days of his life.
15 Ket nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Josue,
And YHWH speaks to Joshua, saying,
16 “Bilinem dagiti padi a mangaw-awit iti lakasa ti tulag a sumang-atda manipud iti Jordan.”
“Command the priests carrying the Ark of the Testimony, and they come up out of the Jordan.”
17 Binilin ngarud ni Josue dagiti padi, “Sumang-atkayo manipud iti Jordan.”
And Joshua commands 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.
And it comes to pass, in the coming up of the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH out of the midst of the Jordan—the soles of the feet of the priests have been drawn up into the dry ground—and the waters of the Jordan return to their place, and go 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.
And the people have come up out of the Jordan on the tenth of the first month, and encamp in Gilgal, in the extremity east of Jericho;
20 Impatakder ni Josue idiay Gilgal dagiti sangapulo ket dua a bato nga innalada idiay Jordan.
and these twelve stones, which they have taken out of the Jordan, Joshua has raised up in Gilgal.
21 Kinunana kadagiti tattao ti Israel, “Inton saludsoden dagiti kaputotanyo dagiti ammada kadagiti tiempo nga umay, 'Ania dagitoy a batbato?'
And he speaks to the sons of Israel, saying, “When your sons ask their fathers hereafter, saying, What [are] these stones?
22 Ibagayo kadagiti annakyo, 'Ditoy ti nangballasiwan dagiti tattao iti Jordan iti rabaw ti namaga a daga.'
Then you have caused your sons to know, saying, Israel passed 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,
because your God YHWH dried up the waters of the Jordan at your presence, until your passing over, as your God YHWH did to the Red Sea which He dried up at our presence until our passing over;
24 tapno maammoan dagiti tattao ti daga a nabileg ti ima ni Yahweh, ken tapno raemenyonto ni Yahweh a Diosyo iti agnanayon.”
so that all the people of the land know the hand of YHWH—that it [is] strong, so that you have feared your God YHWH [for] all the days.”
