And Joshua rose early in the morning; and they broke up from Shittim, and came close to the Jordan, he and all the children of Israel; and they lodged there before they passed over.

Nevertheless there shall be a space between you and it, of about two thousand cubits by measure: come not near unto it, in order that ye may know the way by which ye must go; for ye have not passed this way heretofore.

And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves; for tomorrow will the Lord do wonders in the midst of you.

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, Approach 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 shall ye know that the living God is in the midst of you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Emorites, and the Jebusites.

Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth passeth over before you into the Jordan.
12 menina Israeli vahe'mota mago'mago naga nofipintira mago vahe huhamprita zmavaretere hinke'za 12fu'a vahe eho.
And now take yourselves twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, one man each out of every tribe.

And it shall come to pass, that as soon as 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, the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off, namely, the waters that come down from above; and they shall stand up as a wall.
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 broke up from their tents, to pass over the Jordan, and the priests the bearers of the ark of the covenant were 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 as they that bore the ark were come up to the Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bore the ark were dipped in the edge of the water, [the Jordan, however, had overflowed 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 still and rose up as a wall, very far from the city Adam, which is beside Zarethan; and those that ran down toward the sea of the plain, the salt sea, failed, were cut off; and the people passed over opposite to 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, and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people had finished passing over the Jordan.
