Joshua 1
1 Tukun Moses, mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD, el misa, LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sel Joshua, wen natul Nun su tuh mwet kasru lal Moses, ac fahk,
And it came to pass after the death of Moses, that the Lord spoke to Joshua the son of Naue, the minister of Moses, saying,
2 “Moses mwet kulansap luk el misa. Inge kom tuyak ac us mwet inge ac fahla sasla Infacl Jordan, nu ke acn se nga ac sang nu selos mwet Israel.
Moses my servant is dead; now then arise, go over Jordan, you and all this people, into the land, which I give them.
3 Yen nukewa kowos ac fahsr we uh nga sot tuh in ma lowos, oana nga tuh fahk nu sel Moses.
Every spot on which you shall tread I will give it to you, as I said to Moses.
4 Pa inge masrol ke acn lowos uh: mutawauk yen mwesis eir utyak sun Fineol Lebanon epang, sifilpa mutawauk infacl lulap Euphrates kutulap, fahsr sasla acn lun mwet Hit ac safla ke Meoa Mediterranean roto.
The wilderness and Antilibanus, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates, and as far as the extremity of the sea; your costs shall be from the setting of the sun.
5 Joshua, wangin mwet ac fah kutangkomla ke lusen moul lom. Nga ac fah wi kom oana nga tuh welul Moses. Nga fah tia fahsr liki kom ac nga ac fah wi kom pacl e nukewa.
Not a man shall stand against you all the days of your life; and as I was with Moses, so will I also be with you, and I will not fail you, or neglect you.
6 Kom in ku ac pulaikna, tuh kom pa mwet kol lun mwet inge ke elos ac fah eis facl se su nga tuh wuleang nu sin papa tumalos mu nga ac fah sang tuh in acn selos.
Be strong and 'quit yourself like a man, for you shall divide the land to this people, which I sware to give to your fathers.
7 Ma se na, kom in ku ac pulaikna. Kom in karinganang ac akos ma sap nukewa ma Moses, mwet kulansap luk, el sapkin nu sum. Nik kom kuhfla liki ma inge, na kom ac fah akinsewowoyeyuk yen nukewa kom som nu we uh.
Be strong, therefore, and quit yourself like a man, to observe and do as Moses my servant commanded you; and you shall not turn therefrom to the right hand or to the left, that you may be wise in whatever you may do.
8 Book in Ma Sap se inge ac fah tia tui srumunya sum, ac kom fah nunku kac ke len ac fong. Kom in liyaung ma nukewa ma simla loac an, na moul lom ac fah kapkapak ac kom fah insewowo.
And the book of this law shall not depart out of your mouth, and you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may know how to do all the things that are written [in it]; then shall you prosper, and make your ways prosperous, and then shall you be wise.
9 Esam lah nga fahk tari nu sum tuh kom in ku ac pulaikna. Nik kom sangeng ku fuhleak, tuh nga, LEUM GOD lom, ac fah wi kom yen nukewa kom fahsr we.”
Behold! I have commanded you; be strong and courageous, be not cowardly nor fearful, for the Lord your God is with you in all places whither you go.
10 Ouinge Joshua el sapkin nu sin mwet kol
And Joshua commanded the scribes of the people, saying,
11 tuh elos in fahsrelik nu yurin mwet lalos inmasrlon lohm nuknuk nukewa selos ac fahk, “Kowos in ako mongo nowos an, mweyen tukun len tolu kowos ac fahsr sasla Infacl Jordan nu ke sie facl sasu su LEUM GOD El ac fah sot tuh in mwe usru lowos.”
Go into the midst of the camp of the people, and command the people, saying, Prepare provisions; for yet three days and you shall go over this Jordan, entering in to take possession of the land, which the Lord God of your fathers gives to you.
12 Na Joshua el fahk nu sin mwet in sruf lal Reuben, sruf lal Gad, ac tafu sruf lal Manasseh,
And to Ruben, and to Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasse, Joshua said,
13 “Kowos in esam lah Moses, mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD, el tuh fahk nu suwos lah LEUM GOD lowos El ac fah sot facl se inge, su oan kutulap liki Infacl Jordan, tuh in acn suwos.
Remember the word which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, saying, the Lord your God has caused you to rest, and has given you this land.
14 Mutan kiowos, tulik nutuwos ac kosro nutuwos ac fah muta in acn se inge. Na mwet mweun lowos, wi mwe mweun natulos, ac fahsr sasla Infacl Jordan meet liki mwet Israel wialos, in loangelos
Let your wives and your children and your cattle dwell in the land, which he has given you; and you shall go over well armed before your brethren, every one of you who is strong; and you shall fight on their side;
15 nwe ke na elos sruokya lefahl roto in Infacl Jordan, su LEUM GOD lowos El sang nu selos. Tukun God El oru tuh sruf nukewa lun mwet Israel in muta ke misla ac okaki in acn selos, na kowos fah ku in foloko ac oakwuki in acn se inge kutulap in Infacl Jordan, su Moses, mwet kulansap lun LEUM GOD, el tuh sot nu suwos.”
until the Lord your God shall have given your brethren rest, as also to you, and they also shall have inherited the land, which the Lord your God gives them; then you shall depart each one to his inheritance, which Moses gave you beyond Jordan eastward.
16 Na elos topkol Joshua ac fahk, “Kut fah oru ma nukewa kom sapkin nu sesr, ac som nu yen nukewa kom supwekut nu we.
And they answered Joshua and said, We will do all things which you command us, and we will go to every place whither you shall send us.
17 Kut fah akos kom oana ke kut tuh aksol Moses, ac kut finsrak tuh LEUM GOD lom el fah wi kom oana el tuh welul Moses!
Whereinsoever we listened to Moses we will listen to you; only let the Lord our God be with you, as he was with Moses.
18 Kutena mwet su lain ma sap lom ku seakos kas lom ac fah anwuki. Ma se na, kom in ku ac pulaikna!”
And whoever shall disobey you, and whoever shall not listen to your words as you shall command him, let him die; but be you strong and courageous.
