1 Na Joshua el sapkin sruf nukewa lun Israel in tukeni nu Shechem. El pangoneni mwet matu, mwet kol, mwet nununku, ac mwet leum lun Israel, ac elos tukeni ye mutun God.
Ngakho uJoshuwa wabuthanisa zonke izizwana zako-Israyeli eShekhemu. Wamema bonke abadala, abakhokheli, abahluleli leziphathamandla zako-Israyeli, njalo bazethula phambi kukaNkulunkulu.
2 Joshua el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Pa inge kas ma LEUM GOD lun Israel El fahk, ‘In pacl meet ah, papa matu tomowos muta kutulap in Infacl Euphrates ac alu nu sin god saya. Sie selos pa Terah, papa tumal Abraham ac Nahor.
UJoshuwa wathi ebantwini bonke, “UThixo, uNkulunkulu wako-Israyeli uthi: ‘Kudala okhokho benu, okugoqela uThera uyise ka-Abhrahama loNahori, babehlala ngaphetsheya koMfula njalo bekhonza abanye onkulunkulu.
3 Na nga tuh usalu Abraham, papa matu tomowos, liki acn we, ac kolol sasla in acn Canaan nufon. Ac nga sang fwilin tulik puspis natul. Nga eisalang Isaac nu sel,
Kodwa ngathatha uyihlo u-Abhrahama elizweni elingaphetsheya koMfula ngamkhokhelela eKhenani ngamnika izizukulwane ezinengi. Ngamnika u-Isaka,
4 ac nu sel Isaac nga eisalang Jacob ac Esau. Nga sang acn fineol uh in acn Edom nu sel Esau tuh in ma lal. A funu Jacob, papa matu tomowos, el ac tulik natul tuh som nu Egypt.
njalo u-Isaka ngamnika uJakhobe lo-Esawu. Nganika ilizwe lonke elilamaqaqa eleSeyiri ku-Esawu, kodwa uJakhobe lamadodana akhe baya eGibhithe.
5 Tok nga supwalla Moses ac Aaron, ac nga aklokoalokye mwet Egypt, tusruktu nga uskowosme liki acn we.
Ngasengithuma uMosi lo-Aroni, njalo ngajezisa amaGibhithe ngalokho engakwenza khonale ngasengilikhupha khona.
6 Ke nga use mwet matu lowos liki acn Egypt, mwet Egypt elos ukwalos ke chariot ac ke mwet kasrusr fin horse. Ke mwet matu lowos elos sun Meoa Srusra,
Ekukhupheni kwami okhokho benu eGibhithe, beza olwandle njalo amaGibhithe axotshana labo ngezinqola lamabhiza baze bayafika eLwandle Olubomvu.
7 elos wowoyak nu sik ac siyuk kasru, na nga orala sie ohk inmasrlolos ac mwet Egypt. Ac nga oru tuh kof uh in sifil folokeni nu faclos mwet Egypt, ac akwalomyalosla. Kowos etu ma nga tuh oru in acn Egypt. “‘Na kowos tuh muta in acn mwesis ke pacl na loeloes se.
Kodwa bakhala kuThixo befuna uncedo yena waseletha umnyama phakathi kwenu lamaGibhithe; waletha ulwandle phezu kwabo wabembesa ngalo. Lazibonela ngamehlo enu lokho engakwenza kumaGibhithe. Laselihlala enkangala okwesikhathi eside.
8 Nga uskowosme nu in acn lun mwet Amor su muta kutulap in Infacl Jordan. Elos tuh mweun lain kowos, tuh nga usot kutangla nu suwos. Kowos eisla acn selos, ac nga kunauselosla ye motowos.
Ngaliletha elizweni lama-Amori ayehlala empumalanga yeJodani. Balwisana lani, kodwa mina ngabanikela ezandleni zenu. Ngababhubhisa phambi kwenu njalo laselithatha ilizwe labo.
9 Na Balak wen natul Zippor, tokosra lun acn Moab, el tuyak lain kowos, ac el sapla nu sel Balaam, wen natul Beor, elan tuh selngawi kowos.
Lapho uBhalaki indodana kaZiphori inkosi yaseMowabi, alungiselela ukulwisana lo-Israyeli, wathumela uBhalamu indodana kaBheyori ukuthi aliqalekise.
10 Tuh nga tia lohngol Balaam, ouinge el akinsewowoye kowos. Pa inge luman molela luk nu suwos liki inpaol Balak.
Kodwa ngala ukulalela uBhalamu, ngakho walibusisa njalonjalo mina ngasengilihlenga esandleni sakhe.
11 Na kowos fahsr sasla Infacl Jordan ac tuku nu Jericho. Mwet kol in acn Jericho elos tuh mweun lain kowos oana ke mwet Amor, mwet Periz, mwet Canaan, mwet Hit, mwet Girgash, mwet Hiv, ac mwet Jebus tuh lain kowos, tuh nga sifil pacna oru tuh kowos in kutangulosla nufon.
Laselichapha uJodani leza eJerikho. Izakhamizi zeJerikho zalwisana lani njengalokho okwenziwa ngama-Amori, amaPherizi, amaKhenani, amaHithi, amaGigashi, amaHivi lamaJebusi, kodwa ngabanikela ezandleni zenu.
12 Ke kowos utyak nu in acn we, nga akfohsyalosyak in tuh ukwauk tokosra luo lun mwet Amor. Kutangla lowos tia ma ke cutlass ac mwe pisr nutuwos.
Ngathumela olonyovu phambi kwenu, olwabaxotsha phambi kwenu kanye lamakhosi amabili ama-Amori. Kalizange likwenze ngenkemba yenu langedandili lenu.
13 Ouinge nga sot nu suwos sie acn su kowos tia taknelik fac, ac siti ma kowos tia musaela. Inge kowos muta we ac mongo ke fokin grape ac olive, su ma kowos tia yukwiya.’”
Ngakho ngalinika ilizwe elingazanga liliginqele lamadolobho elingazange liwakhe; njalo lihlala phakathi kwawo njalo lisidla ezivinini zama-oliva elingazihlanyelanga.’
14 Na Joshua el sifil fahk nu selos, “Kowos in akfulatye LEUM GOD, ac kulansap nu sel ke oaru ac inse pwaye. Sisla kutena god su ma mwet matu lowos elos tuh alu nu se in acn Mesopotamia ac Egypt, ac kulansupu LEUM GOD mukena.
Ngakho mesabeni uThixo limkhonze ngokuthembeka konke. Lahlani onkulunkulu ababekhonzwa ngokhokho benu ngaphetsheya koMfula laseGibhithe, likhonze uThixo.
15 Kowos fin tia lungse kulansupu LEUM GOD, kowos sulela misenge lah su kowos ac kulansupu, lah ac god su mwet matu lowos elos tuh alu nu se in acn Mesopotamia, ku god lun mwet Amor su kowos muta in acn selos misenge. Funu nga ac mwet in lohm sik, kut ac fah kulansupu LEUM GOD.”
Kodwa nxa ukukhonza uThixo kukhanya kungathandeki kini, khethani phakathi kwenu namhlanje lowo elizamkhonza, kumbe ngonkulunkulu okhokho benu ababebakhonza ngaphetsheya koMfula kumbe onkulunkulu bama-Amori, lawo elihlala elizweni lawo. Kodwa mina lendlu yami sizakhonza uThixo.”
16 Na mwet ah topuk ac fahk, “Kut ac fah tiana ku in sisla LEUM GOD ac kulansupu kutena god saya!
Abantu basebephendula besithi, “Akube khatshana lathi ukuthi silahle uThixo ukuze sikhonze abanye onkulunkulu!
17 LEUM GOD lasr pa uskutme, oayapa mwet matu lasr, liki acn Egypt, acn su kut tuh moul in kohs we. Kut liye pac mwenmen puspis El orala. El karingin kut ke fufahsryesr lasr inmasrlon facl puspis.
KwakunguThixo uNkulunkulu wethu ngokwakhe owasikhuphayo thina kanye labobaba eGibhithe sisuka elizweni lobugqili, wasesenza izimanga ezinkulu emehlweni ethu. Wasivikela kulolonke uhambo lwethu lakuzo zonke izizwe.
18 Ke kut utyak nu in acn ingan, LEUM GOD El lusla mwet Amor su muta we. Ke ma inge, kut ac fah wi pac kulansupu LEUM GOD, tuh El God lasr.”
Njalo uThixo wazixotsha phambi kwethu zonke izizwe, okugoqela ama-Amori ayehlala elizweni. Lathi sizamkhonza uThixo ngoba unguNkulunkulu wethu.”
19 Ac Joshua el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Sahp kowos ac tia ku in kulansupu LEUM GOD. El sie God mutal, ac El sie God loloik. El ac tia nunak munas ke seakos lowos ac ma koluk lowos.
UJoshuwa wathi ebantwini, “Kalenelisi ukumkhonza uThixo. UnguNkulunkulu ongcwele; unguNkulunkulu olobukhwele. Kasoze alixolele ekuhlamukeni kwenu lezonweni zenu.
20 Kowos fin forla lukel ac kulansap nu sin god saya, El ac fah forla liki kowos ac akkeokye kowos ac kunauskowosla, finne El tuh arulana wo nu suwos meet.”
Nxa lingatshiya uThixo beselikhonza abanye onkulunkulu bezizweni uzaliphendukela alehlisele umonakalo aliqede du, yena ubelungile.”
21 Na mwet uh fahk nu sel Joshua, “Mo! Kut ac kulansap na nu sin LEUM GOD.”
Kodwa abantu bathi kuJoshuwa, “Hatshi! Sizamkhonza uThixo.”
22 Na Joshua el fahk, “Kowos mwet loh lowos sifacna ke kowos fahk mu kowos sulela tuh kowos in kulansupu LEUM GOD.” Ac elos fahk, “Aok, kut ac mwet loh lasr sifacna.”
UJoshuwa wathi, “Yini elizifakazelayo ukuthi selikhethe ukukhonza uThixo.” Baphendula bathi, “Yebo singofakazi.”
23 Na Joshua el fahk nu selos, “Fin pwaye, kowos sisla liki kowos god saya nukewa ma oan yuruwos an, ac sang insiowos in pwayena nu sin LEUM GOD lun Israel.”
UJoshuwa wathi kubo, “Ngakho-ke lahlani bonke onkulunkulu bezizweni abaphakathi kwenu beselinikela inhliziyo zenu kuThixo, uNkulunkulu wako-Israyeli.”
24 Na mwet ah fahk nu sel Joshua, “Kut ac fah kulansap nu sin LEUM GOD lasr, ac akos ma sap lal.”
Abantu bathi kuJoshuwa, “Sizamkhonza uThixo uNkulunkulu wethu simlalele.”
25 Ke len sac Joshua el orala sie wulela nu sin mwet uh in acn Shechem, ac el sang nu selos ma sap ac ma oakwuk elos in fahsr kac.
Ngalelolanga uJoshuwa wenzela abantu isivumelwano, njalo wabenzela imithetho lemilayo khonapho eShekhemu.
26 Ac Joshua el simusla ma inge in book in Ma Sap Lun God. Na el eis sie eot lulap ac tulokunak ye sak oak soko sisken Lohm Nuknuk sin LEUM GOD.
UJoshuwa waloba konke lokhu oGwalweni lwemiThetho kaNkulunkulu. Wasethatha ilitshe elikhulu walimisa phansi kwesihlahla somʼOkhi eduzane lendawo engcwele kaThixo.

Wathi ebantwini bonke, “Khangelani! Ilitshe leli lizakuba yibufakazi kithi sonke. Selizwile wonke amazwi akhulunywe nguThixo kithi. Lizakuba ngofakazi wokulilahla nxa lingakhulumi iqiniso kuNkulunkulu.”

31 Mwet Israel elos kulansupu LEUM GOD ke lusen moul lal Joshua nufon, ac tukun el misa ah, elos tafwelana ke lusen moul lun mwet kol lalos su liye ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El oru nu sin Israel.
