1 Hagi Sitimima mani'nazaretira Josua'ene maka Israeli vahe'mo'za nanterame oti'za Jodani tinte e'za, seli nonkuma eme ante'za mani'naze.
And Joshua rose up early in the morning, and they removed from Shittim, and came to the Jordan, he and all the children of Israel; and they lodged there before they passed over.
2 Anante tagufa zage kna evutegeno, kva vahe'mo'za kuma'ma ante'za mani'nafi vano nehu'za,
And it came to pass after three days, that the officers went through the midst of the camp;
3 amanage hu'za zmasami'naze, Tamagrama kesanageno'ma Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisima Livae naga'pinti pristi vahe'mo'zama erisga hu'zama vanagetma, mani'naza kumara atretma otitma zamavariritma viho.
and they commanded the people, saying: 'When ye see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests the Levites bearing it, then ye shall remove from your place, and go after it.
4 E'ina nehutma kama vanaza kana keso'e hiho. Na'ankure omenare kasefa kante neaze. Hianagi tamagra huhagerafi huvempage vogisimofo tavaontera ovutma, 1kilomita naza kankamu amitama, afete eho.
Yet there shall be a space between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure; come not near unto it, that ye may know the way by which ye must go; for ye have not passed this way heretofore.'
5 Anante Josua'a Israeli vahera amanage huno zamasami'ne, tamagra'a tamazeri agru hiho. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a tamagri amu'nompi ruzahu kaguvaza okina erifore hugahie.
And Joshua said unto the people: 'Sanctify yourselves; for to-morrow the LORD will do wonders among you.'
6 Hagi Josua'a pristi vahera amanage huno zamasami'ne, tamagra huhagerafi huvempage vogisia eritma vahe'mokizmi zamavuga vugoteho, hige'za ke amage ante'za eri'za vahe zamavuga vugota hu'naze.
And Joshua spoke unto the priests, saying: 'Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass on before the people.' And they took up the ark of the covenant, and went before the people.
7 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a Josuana amanage huno asami'ne, Nagra menina agafa hu'na Israeli vahe zamavufi kagi'a erisga hanuge'za, zamagrama ke'za antahi'zama hanazana, Mosese'enema mani'neaza huno Anumzamo'a kagri'enena mani'ne hu'za antahigahaze.
And the LORD said unto Joshua: 'This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee.
8 Hagi menina huhagerafi huvempage vogisima erisaza pristi vahera amanage hunka zamasamio, tamagrama Jodani timofo ankenare'ma vanutma, ti amu'nompi vutma ome oti fatgo hiho.
And thou shalt command the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying: When ye are come to the brink of the waters of the Jordan, ye shall stand still in the Jordan.'
9 Higeno Josua'a Israeli vahera amanage huno zamasami'ne, amare erava'o huta Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamo'ma hiankea eme antahiho.
And Joshua said unto the children of Israel: 'Come hither, and hear the words of the LORD your God.'
10 Nehuno Josua'a amanage huno Israeli vahera zamasami'ne, ko'ma mani'naza Kenani vahe'ma, Hiti vahe'ma, Hivi vahe'ma, Peresi vahe'ma, Gilgasi vahe'ma, Amori vahe'ma, Jebusi vahe'ma zamahe panini hanigeta, kasefa huno mani'nea Anumzamo'a amu'nontifi mani'ne hutma keta antahita hugahaze.
And Joshua said: 'Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you, and that He will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Hivite, and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Amorite, and the Jebusite.
11 Keho, maka mopama kegava hu'nea Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisimo'ma, vugota huno Jodani tima takahe'nigeta,
Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth passeth on before you over the Jordan.
12 menina Israeli vahe'mota mago'mago naga nofipintira mago vahe huhamprita zmavaretere hinke'za 12fu'a vahe eho.
Now therefore take you twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, for every tribe a man.
13 Hagi Ra Anumzama maka mopama kegava hu'nea Anumzamofo Agri huhagerafi huvempage vogisima erisaza pristi vahe'mo'zama zamagama Jodani timpima ome resageno'a, tima ne'eazamo'a taneno kamanu kaziga magopi ante hihihuno marerigahie.
And it shall come to pass, when the soles of the feet of the priests that bear the ark of the LORD, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, that the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off, even the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand in one heap.'
14 Anante pristi vahe'mo'za huhagerafi huvempage vogisia eri'za vugota nehazage'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za ana pristi vahe'mokizmi zmavariri'za Jodani tina takahenaku seli nozamia tagana vazi'za e'neri'za maka'za zamia retro hu'naze.
And it came to pass, when the people removed from their tents, to pass over the Jordan, the priests that bore the ark of the covenant being before the people;
15 Hagi maka kafufina ne'zama hamare knarera Jodani timo'a tusi ti hagetere nehiane. Hagi e'i ana knarekino timo'a amutu'amutu nehifi pristi vahe'mo'za huhagerafi huvempage vogisia eri'za Jodani timofo ankenare ehanati'za zamagia timpi eme razageno,
and when they that bore the ark were come unto the Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bore the ark were dipped in the brink of the water — for the Jordan overfloweth all its banks all the time of harvest —
16 kamaniti'ma e'nea timo'a taneno ogamanu afete Zaretani tavaonte me'nea rankuma Adamua, magopi ome ante hihi huno agonagna huno marerigeno, kami kazigama fri'nea hagerintegama evia timo'a tane vagarege'za hagage mopare vu'za kantu kaziga Jeriko tava'onte uhanati'naze.
that the waters which came down from above stood, and rose up in one heap, a great way off from Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan; and those that went down toward the sea of the Arabah, even the Salt Sea, were wholly cut off; and the people passed over right against Jericho.
17 Hagi Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisima zamafunte'ma kofi'naza pristi vahe'mo'za, timofo amu'nompima hagegema hu'nere oti hanaveti'nage'za, ana maka Israeli vahe'mo'za Jodani timo'ma hagagema hu'nea moparera evu vagare'za kantu kaziga vu'naze.
And the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, while all Israel passed over on dry ground, until all the nation were passed clean over the Jordan.
