1 Congregavitque Josue omnes tribus Israël in Sichem, et vocavit majores natu, ac principes, et judices, et magistros: steteruntque in conspectu Domini,
Pea naʻe tānaki fakataha ʻe Siosiua ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga ʻo ʻIsileli ki Sikemi, ʻo ne fekau ke haʻu ʻae kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli, mo honau ngaahi ʻeiki, pea ko honau kau fakamaau, mo honau kau matāpule; pea naʻa nau fakahā ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻao ʻoe ʻOtua.
2 et ad populum sic locutus est: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Trans fluvium habitaverunt patres vestri ab initio, Thare pater Abraham et Nachor: servieruntque diis alienis.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua ki he kakai kotoa pē, “ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Naʻe nofo hoʻomou ngaahi tamai ʻi muʻa ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻoe vai lahi, ʻio, ʻa Tela, ko e tamai ʻa ʻEpalahame mo e tamai ʻa Nehoa: pea naʻa nau tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe.
3 Tuli ergo patrem vestrum Abraham de Mesopotamiæ finibus, et adduxi eum in terram Chanaan, multiplicavique semen ejus,
Pea naʻaku ʻomi hoʻomou tamai ko ʻEpalahame mei he potu ʻe taha ʻoe vai lahi, ʻo tataki ia ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, pea u fakatokolahi hono hako, ʻo foaki kiate ia ʻa ʻAisake.
4 et dedi ei Isaac: illique rursum dedi Jacob et Esau. E quibus, Esau dedi montem Seir ad possidendum: Jacob vero et filii ejus descenderunt in Ægyptum.
Pea naʻe foaki kia ʻAisake ʻa Sēkope mo ʻIsoa: peau foaki kia ʻIsoa ʻae moʻunga ko Seia, ke ne maʻu ia; ka ko Sēkope mo ʻene fānau naʻa nau ʻalu hifo ki ʻIsipite.
5 Misique Moysen et Aaron, et percussi Ægyptum multis signis atque portentis.
Pea naʻaku fekau ʻa Mōsese mo ʻElone foki, peau fakamamahiʻi ʻa ʻIsipite, ʻo fakatatau mo ia ʻaia naʻaku fai ʻiate kinautolu: pea hili ia naʻaku fakahaofi ʻakimoutolu.
6 Eduxique vos et patres vestros de Ægypto, et venistis ad mare: persecutique sunt Ægyptii patres vestros cum curribus et equitatu, usque ad mare Rubrum.
Pea naʻaku ʻomi hoʻomou ngaahi tamai mei ʻIsipite: pea naʻa mou haʻu ki he tahi: pea naʻe tuli hoʻomou ngaahi tamai ʻe he kakai ʻIsipite ʻaki ʻae ngaahi saliote mo e kau tangata heka hoosi ʻo aʻu ki he Tahi Kulokula.
7 Clamaverunt autem ad Dominum filii Israël: qui posuit tenebras inter vos et Ægyptios, et adduxit super eos mare, et operuit eos. Viderunt oculi vestri cuncta quæ in Ægypto fecerim, et habitastis in solitudine multo tempore:
Pea ʻi heʻenau tangi kia Sihova, naʻa ne ʻai ʻae poʻuli ʻi homou vahaʻa mo e kakai ʻIsipite, pea naʻa ne ʻomi ʻae tahi kiate kinautolu ʻo lōmaki ʻaki ʻakinautolu; pea naʻe mamata ʻe homou mata ki he meʻa naʻaku fai ʻi ʻIsipite: pea ne mou nofo ʻi he toafa ʻo fuoloa.
8 et introduxi vos in terram Amorrhæi, qui habitabat trans Jordanem. Cumque pugnarent contra vos, tradidi eos in manus vestras, et possedistis terram eorum, atque interfecistis eos.
Pea ne u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki he fonua ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani; pea naʻa nau tauʻi ʻakimoutolu: pea ne u tuku ʻakinautolu ki homou nima, koeʻuhi ke mou maʻu honau fonua, pea ne u fakaʻauha ʻakinautolu mei homou ʻao.
9 Surrexit autem Balac filius Sephor rex Moab, et pugnavit contra Israëlem. Misitque et vocavit Balaam filium Beor, ut malediceret vobis:
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Pelaki ko e foha ʻo Sipoa, ko e tuʻi ʻo Moape, ʻo ne tauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo ne fekau ke ui ʻa Pelami ko e foha ʻo Peoli ke haʻu ʻo fakamalaʻiaʻi ʻakimoutolu:
10 et ego nolui audire eum, sed e contrario per illum benedixi vobis, et liberavi vos de manu ejus.
Ka naʻe ʻikai te u tokanga kia Pelami ko ia naʻa ne tāpuakiʻi pe ʻakimoutolu pea ne u fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei hono nima,
11 Transistisque Jordanem, et venistis ad Jericho. Pugnaveruntque contra vos viri civitatis ejus, Amorrhæus et Pherezæus, et Chananæus, et Hethæus, et Gergezæus, et Hevæus, et Jebusæus: et tradidi illos in manus vestras.
Pea ne mou ʻalu atu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani, ʻo hoko ki Seliko: pea naʻe tauʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe he kau tangata ʻo Seliko; ko e kau ʻAmoli, mo e kau Pelesi, mo e kau Kēnani, mo e kau Heti, mo e kau Keakasa, mo e kau Hevi, mo e kau Sepusi; pea naʻaku tukuange ʻakinautolu ki homou nima.
12 Misique ante vos crabrones: et ejeci eos de locis suis, duos reges Amorrhæorum, non in gladio nec in arcu tuo.
Pea naʻaku fekau ʻae fanga langomū ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻaia naʻe kapusi ʻakinautolu mei homou ʻao, ʻio, ʻae tuʻi ʻe ua ʻoe kau ʻAmoli; ka naʻe ʻikai fai ia ʻaki hoʻo heletā pē ko hoʻo kaufana ʻaʻau.
13 Dedique vobis terram, in qua non laborastis, et urbes quas non ædificastis, ut habitaretis in eis: vineas, et oliveta, quæ non plantastis.
Pea kuo u foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae fonua ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te mou ngāue ke maʻu, mo e ngaahi kolo naʻe ʻikai te mou langa, pea ʻoku mou nofo ʻi ai; ko e ngaahi ngoue vaine, mo e ngaahi ngoue ʻolive ʻaia naʻe ʻikai te mou tō ʻoku mou kai mei ai.’
14 Nunc ergo timete Dominum, et servite ei perfecto corde atque verissimo: et auferte deos quibus servierunt patres vestri in Mesopotamia et in Ægypto, ac servite Domino.
“Pea ko eni, mou manavahē kia Sihova, pea tauhi ia ʻi he angatonu mo e moʻoni; pea tukuange ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ngaahi ʻotua naʻe tauhi ʻe hoʻomou ngaahi tamai ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻoe vai lahi, pea mo ʻIsipite: pea mou tauhi ʻa Sihova.
15 Sin autem malum vobis videtur ut Domino serviatis, optio vobis datur: eligite hodie quod placet, cui servire potissimum debeatis: utrum diis, quibus servierunt patres vestri in Mesopotamia, an diis Amorrhæorum, in quorum terra habitatis: ego autem et domus mea serviemus Domino.
Pea kapau ʻoku matamata kovi kiate kimoutolu ke tauhi ʻa Sihova, mou fili he ʻaho ni ʻaia te mou tauhi; pe ko e ngaahi ʻotua ʻaia naʻe tauhi ʻe hoʻomou ngaahi tamai, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he kauvai ʻe taha ʻoe vai lahi, pe ki he ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻae fonua ʻonautolu ʻoku mou nofo ai: ka ko au mo hoku fale te mau tauhi ʻa Sihova.
16 Responditque populus, et ait: Absit a nobis ut relinquamus Dominum, et serviamus diis alienis.
Pea naʻe lea ʻae kakai ʻo pehē, “Ke taʻofi ʻe he ʻOtua ke ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa mau liʻaki ʻa Sihova, ke tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe;
17 Dominus Deus noster, ipse eduxit nos et patres nostros de terra Ægypti, de domo servitutis: fecitque videntibus nobis signa ingentia, et custodivit nos in omni via per quam ambulavimus, et in cunctis populis per quos transivimus.
He ko Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, ko ia ia kuo ne ʻomi ʻakitautolu mo ʻetau ngaahi tamai mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, mei he fale fakapōpula, pea ko ia naʻa ne fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa fakaʻilonga lahi ʻi hotau ʻao, ʻo ne fakamoʻui ʻakitautolu ʻi he hala kotoa pē ʻaia naʻa tau ʻalu ai, pea ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai kotoa pē ʻaia naʻa tau ʻalu ai:
18 Et ejecit universas gentes, Amorrhæum habitatorem terræ quam nos intravimus. Serviemus igitur Domino, quia ipse est Deus noster.
Pea naʻe kapusi ʻe Sihova mei hotau ʻao ʻae kakai kotoa pē, ʻio, ʻae kau ʻAmoli ʻaia naʻe nofo ʻi he fonua: ko ia foki te mau tauhi ʻa Sihova; he ko homau ʻOtua ia.”
19 Dixitque Josue ad populum: Non poteritis servire Domino: Deus enim sanctus et fortis æmulator est, nec ignoscet sceleribus vestris atque peccatis.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua ki he kakai, “ʻOku ʻikai te mou faʻa tauhi ʻa Sihova; he ko e ʻOtua māʻoniʻoni ia; ko e ʻOtua fuaʻa ia; ʻe ʻikai te ne fakamolemole hoʻomou ngaahi talangataʻa mo hoʻomou ngaahi angahala.
20 Si dimiseritis Dominum, et servieritis diis alienis, convertet se, et affliget vos atque subvertet, postquam vobis præstiterit bona.
Kapau ʻoku mou liʻaki ʻa Sihova, pea tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe, te ne foki mai ʻo tautea ʻakimoutolu, ʻo fakaʻauha ʻakimoutolu, hili ʻa ʻene fai lelei kiate kimoutolu.”
21 Dixitque populus ad Josue: Nequaquam ita ut loqueris erit, sed Domino serviemus.
Pea naʻa nau tala kia Siosiua, “ʻE ʻikai; ka te mau tauhi ʻa Sihova.”
22 Et Josue ad populum: Testes, inquit, vos estis, quia ipsi elegeritis vobis Dominum ut serviatis ei. Responderuntque: Testes.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua ki he kakai, “Ko e kau fakamoʻoni ʻakimoutolu kiate kimoutolu kuo mou fili ʻa Sihova moʻomoutolu ke tauhi ia.” Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Ko e kau fakamoʻoni ʻakimautolu.”
23 Nunc ergo, ait, auferte deos alienos de medio vestri, et inclinate corda vestra ad Dominum Deum Israël.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Pea ko eni, tukuange ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu, pea mou fakatokangaʻi homou loto kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.”
24 Dixitque populus ad Josue: Domino Deo nostro serviemus, et obedientes erimus præceptis ejus.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kia Siosiua, “Te mau tauhi ʻa Sihova ko homau ʻOtua, pea te mau fai talangofua ki hono leʻo.”
25 Percussit ergo Josue in die illo fœdus, et proposuit populo præcepta atque judicia in Sichem.
Ko ia naʻe fai ai ʻe Siosiua ʻae fuakava mo e kakai ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻo ne fokotuʻu ʻae fekau maʻanautolu mo e tuʻutuʻuni ʻi Sikemi.
26 Scripsit quoque omnia verba hæc in volumine legis Domini: et tulit lapidem pergrandem, posuitque eum subter quercum, quæ erat in sanctuario Domini:
Pea naʻe tohi ʻe Siosiua ʻae ngaahi lea ni ʻi he tohi ʻoe fono ʻae ʻOtua, ʻo ne ʻomi ʻae fuʻu maka lahi ʻo fokotuʻu ia ʻi he lolo oke, ʻaia naʻe ofi ki he faletapu ʻo Sihova.
27 et dixit ad omnem populum: En lapis iste erit vobis in testimonium, quod audierit omnia verba Domini, quæ locutus est vobis: ne forte postea negare velitis, et mentiri Domino Deo vestro.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Siosiua ki he kakai kotoa pē, “Vakai, ko e fakamoʻoni ʻae maka ni kiate kitautolu; he kuo ne fanongo ki he lea kotoa pē ʻa Sihova ʻaia kuo ne folofolaʻaki kiate kitautolu: ko ia ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e fakamoʻoni, telia naʻa mou fakafisingaʻi homou ʻOtua.”
28 Dimisitque populum, singulos in possessionem suam.
Pea naʻe tukuange ʻe Siosiua ʻae kakai kenau ʻalu, taki taha ʻae tangata ki hono tofiʻa.
29 Et post hæc mortuus est Josue filius Nun servus Domini, centum et decem annorum:
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, pea hoko ʻo pehē, naʻe pekia ʻa Siosiua ko e foha ʻo Nuni, ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Sihova, ka kuo teau taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe hongofulu hono motuʻa.
30 sepelieruntque eum in finibus possessionis suæ in Thamnathsare, quæ est sita in monte Ephraim, a septentrionali parte montis Gaas.
Pea naʻa nau fai hono putu ʻi he veʻe tofiʻa ʻoʻona ʻi Timinate-Sela, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he moʻunga ko ʻIfalemi, ʻi he potu tokelau ʻoe moʻunga ko Keasi.
31 Servivitque Israël Domino cunctis diebus Josue et seniorum, qui longo vixerunt tempore post Josue, et qui noverunt omnia opera Domini quæ fecerat in Israël.
Pea naʻe tauhi ʻe ʻIsileli ʻa Sihova ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo Siosiua, mo e ʻaho kotoa pē ʻoe kau mātuʻa naʻa nau moʻui kimui ʻia Siosiua, ʻakinautolu naʻa nau ʻilo ʻae ngaahi ngāue kotoa pē ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne fai maʻa ʻIsileli.
32 Ossa quoque Joseph, quæ tulerant filii Israël de Ægypto, sepelierunt in Sichem, in parte agri quem emerat Jacob a filiis Hemor patris Sichem, centum novellis ovibus, et fuit in possessionem filiorum Joseph.
Pea ko e hui ʻo Siosefa ʻaia naʻe hikitanga ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli mei ʻIsipite, naʻa nau tanu ʻi Sikemi, ʻi he konga fonua naʻe fakatau ʻe Sēkope mei he ngaahi foha ʻo Hemoa ko e tamai ʻa Sikemi ʻaki ʻae konga siliva ʻe teau: pea naʻe hoko ia ko e tofiʻa ʻoe fānau ʻa Siosefa.
33 Eleazar quoque filius Aaron mortuus est: et sepelierunt eum in Gabaath Phinees filii ejus, quæ data est ei in monte Ephraim.
Pea naʻe pekia ʻa ʻEliesa ko e foha ʻo ʻElone; pea naʻa nau fai hono putu ʻi he moʻunga naʻe ʻo Finiasi ko hono foha, ʻaia naʻe foaki kiate ia ʻi he moʻunga ko ʻIfalemi.
