Jozue 24
1 Jozue asangisaki mabota nyonso ya Isalaele na Sishemi. Abengisaki bampaka, bakambi, basambisi mpe bakalaka ya Isalaele; mpe bango bayaki liboso ya Nzambe.
And Josue gaderide alle the lynagis of Israel in to Sechem; and he clepide the grettere men in birthe, and the princes, and iugis, and maistris; and thei stoden in the siyt of the Lord.
2 Jozue alobaki na bato nyonso: — Tala liloba oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Wuta kala, bakoko na bino mpe Tera, tata ya Abrayami mpe Naori, bavandaki na ngambo mosusu ya ebale mpe bazalaki kosalela banzambe mosusu.
And he spak thus to the puple, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, Youre fadris dwelliden at the bigynnyng biyende the flood Eufrates, Thare, the fadir of Abraham, and Nachor, and thei serueden alien goddis.
3 Kasi nabimisaki tata na bino, Abrayami, wuta na mokili oyo ezalaki na ngambo mosusu ya ebale, natambolisaki ye na mokili mobimba ya Kanana mpe napesaki ye bakitani ebele. Napesaki ye Izaki;
Therfor Y took youre fadir Abraham fro the coostis of Mesopotanye, and Y brouyte hym in to the lond of Canaan; and Y multipliede `the seed of hym,
4 mpe na nzela ya Izaki, napesaki ye Jakobi mpe Ezawu. Napesaki mokili ya bangomba Seiri epai ya Ezawu, kasi Jakobi elongo na bana na ye ya mibali, bakendeki na Ejipito.
and Y yaf Isaac to hym; and eft Y yaf to Isaac, Jacob, and Esau, of whiche Y yaf to Esau the hil of Seir, to `haue in possessioun; forsothe Jacob and hise sones yeden doun in to Egipt.
5 Boye, natindaki Moyize mpe Aron; nabetaki Ejipito kolanda makambo nyonso oyo nasalaki kuna mpe nabimisaki bino kuna.
And Y sente Moises and Aaron, and Y smoot Egipt with many signes and wondris,
6 Tango nabimisaki batata na bino na Ejipito, bakomaki kino na ebale monene ya Barozo, bato ya Ejipito balandaki bango na bashar mpe na basoda oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda kino na Ebale monene ya Motane.
and Y ledde you and youre fadris out of Egipt. And ye camen to the see, and Egipcians pursueden youre fadris with charis, and multitude of knyytis, `til to the Reed See.
7 Batata na bino bagangaki epai na Yawe mpo na kosenga lisungi, mpe Yawe atiaki molili kati na bino mpe bato ya Ejipito, azindisaki bango na mayi ya Ebale monene oyo ezipaki bango. Miso na bino moko emonaki makambo oyo nasalaki bato ya Ejipito. Mpe bowumelaki mibu ebele na esobe.
Forsothe the sones of Israel crieden to the Lord, and he settide derknessis bitwixe you and Egipcians; and he brouyte the see on hem, and hilide hem. Youre iyen sien alle thingis, whiche Y dide in Egipt. And ye dwelliden in wildirnesse in myche tyme.
8 Namemaki bino na mokili ya bato ya Amori, oyo bazalaki kovanda na ngambo ya este ya Yordani. Babundisaki bino kasi nakabaki bango na maboko na bino. Nabomaki bango na miso na bino mpe bobotolaki mokili na bango.
And Y brouyte you in to the lond of Ammorrei, that dwellide biyende Jordan; and whanne thei fouyten ayens you, Y bitook hem in to youre hondis, and ye hadden in possessioun `the lond of hem, and ye killiden hem.
9 Tango Balaki, mwana mobali ya Tsipori, mokonzi ya Moabi, abimaki mpo na kobundisa Isalaele, atindaki ete baluka Balami, mwana mobali ya Beori, mpo ete alakela bino mabe.
Sotheli Balach, the sone of Sephor, the king of Moab, roos, and fauyt ayens Israel; and he sente, and clepide Balaam, the sone of Beor, that he schulde curse you.
10 Kasi naboyaki koyoka Balami, boye akomaki nde kopambola bino tango na tango mpe nakangolaki bino na loboko na ye.
And Y nolde here hym, but ayenward bi hym Y blesside you, and delyuerede you fro hise hondis.
11 Boye bokatisaki Yordani mpe bokomaki na engumba Jeriko. Bavandi ya Jeriko babundisaki bino ndenge kaka bato ya Amori, ya Perizi, ya Kanana, ya Iti, ya Girigazi, ya Evi mpe ya Yebusi, basalaki; kasi nakabaki bango mpe na maboko na bino.
And ye passiden Jordan, and camen to Jerico; and men of that citee fouyten ayens you, Ammorrei, and Feresei, and Cananei, Ethei, and Gergesei, and Euei, and Jebusei; and Y bitook hem in to youre hondis.
12 Natindelaki bango liboso na bino, banzoyi ya minene oyo ebenganaki bango mosika na bino, na bakonzi mibale ya Amori. Bosalaki yango na mipanga mpe na matolotolo na bino te.
And Y sente flies with venemouse tongis bifor you, and Y castide hem out of her places; Y kyllide twei kyngis of Ammorreis, not in thi swerd and bowe.
13 Boye, napesaki bino mokili oyo bino bomonelaki pasi te mpe bingumba oyo bino botongaki te. Bokomaki kovanda kuna, kolia bambuma ya bilanga ya vino mpe ya olive oyo bolonaki te.
And Y yaf to you the lond in which ye traueiliden not, and citees whiche ye bildiden not, that ye schulden dwelle in tho, and vyneris, and places of olyue trees, whiche ye plauntiden not.
14 Sik’oyo botosa Yawe mpe bosalela Ye na motema mobimba mpe na bosembo. Bobwaka banzambe oyo batata na bino basalelaki na ngambo mosusu ya ebale mpe na Ejipito, mpe bosalela Yawe.
Now therfor drede ye the Lord, and serue ye hym with perfite herte and moost trewe; and do ye awei the goddis, to whiche youre fadris seruyden in Mesopotanye, and in Egipt; and serue ye the Lord.
15 Kasi soki bosepeli kosalela Yawe te, bopona lelo nani bolingi kosalela; banzambe oyo batata na bino basalelaki tango bazalaki na ngambo mosusu ya ebale to banzambe ya bato ya Amori epai wapi bozali kovanda. Kasi ngai mpe libota na ngai, tokosalela Yawe. »
But if it semeth yuel to you, `that ye serue the Lord, chesyng is youun to you; chese ye to you to dai that, that plesith, whom ye owen most to serue; whether to goddis, whiche youre fadris serueden in Mesopotanye, whether to the goddis of Ammorreis, in whose lond ye dwellen; forsothe Y, and myn hows schulen serue the Lord.
16 Bato bazongisaki: — Tozali na likanisi te ya kosundola Yawe to ya kosalela banzambe mosusu!
And al the puple answeride and seide, Fer be it fro vs that we forsake the Lord, and serue alien goddis.
17 Pamba te Yawe azali Nzambe na biso; ezali Ye Yawe nde abimisaki biso mpe batata na biso na Ejipito, na mokili wana ya bowumbu, mpe asalaki na miso na biso bilembo minene ya kokamwa. Azalaki kobatela biso na banzela nyonso oyo tozalaki kotambola mpe kati na bikolo nyonso epai wapi tozalaki koleka.
`Oure Lord God hym silf ledde vs and oure fadris out of the lond of Egipt, fro the hows of seruage, and dide grete signes in oure siyt; and he kepte vs in al the weie, bi which we yeden, and in alle puplis, bi whiche we passiden; and he castide out alle folkis,
18 Yawe abenganaki liboso na biso bikolo nyonso elongo na bato ya Amori oyo bazalaki kovanda na mokili oyo. Biso mpe tokosalela Yawe, pamba te azali Nzambe na biso.
Ammorrei, the dwellere of the lond, in to which we entriden. Therfor we schulen serue the Lord, for he is `oure Lord God.
19 Jozue alobaki na bato: — Bokokoka kosalela Yawe te, pamba te azali Nzambe ya Bule, Nzambe ya Zuwa; akolimbisa te botomboki mpe masumu na bino.
And Josue seide to the puple, Ye moun not serue the Lord; for God is hooli, and a strong feruent louyere, and he foryyueth not youre trespassis and synnes.
20 Soki bosundoli Yawe mpe bokeyi kosalela banzambe ya bapaya, akobalukela bino mpo na kosala bino mabe, mpe akosilisa koboma bino sima na kotalisa bino bolamu.
If ye forsaken the Lord, and seruen alien goddis, the Lord schal turne `hym silf, and schal turment you, and schal distrie, after that he hath youe goodis to you.
21 Kasi bato balobaki na Jozue: — Te, tokosalela kaka Yawe!
And the puple seide to Josue, It schal not be so, as thou spekist, but we schulen serue the Lord.
22 Jozue alobaki na bato: — Bozali bino moko batatoli mpo na bino awa boponi kosalela Yawe. Bazongisaki: — Ezali se bongo, tondimi yango, tozali batatoli.
And Josue seide to the puple, Ye ben witnessis, that ye han chose the Lord to you, that ye serue him. And thei answeriden, We ben witnessis.
23 Jozue alobaki: — Na bongo, bolongola sik’oyo banzambe ya bapaya oyo ezali kati na bino mpe bopesa mitema na bino nyonso epai na Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele.
Therfor, he seide, Now do ye awei alien goddis fro the myddis of you, and bowe ye youre hertis to the Lord God of Israel.
24 Bato bazongiselaki Jozue: — Tokosalela Yawe, Nzambe na biso, mpe tokoyoka mongongo na Ye.
And the puple seide to Josue, We schulen serue `oure Lord God, and we schulen be obedient to hise heestis.
25 Na mokolo wana, Jozue asalaki boyokani elongo na bana ya Isalaele na Sishemi, mpe apesaki bango mibeko mpe bikateli.
Therfor Josue smoot a boond of pees in that dai, and settide forth to the puple comaundementis and domes in Sichen.
26 Bongo, Jozue akomaki makambo wana nyonso na buku ya Mobeko ya Nzambe. Akamataki libanga moko ya monene mpe atelemisaki yango wana, na se ya terebente oyo ezalaki kati na Esika ya bule ya Yawe.
And he wroot alle these wordis in the book of Goddis lawe. And he took a greet stoon, and puttide it vndur an ook, that was in the seyntuarie of the Lord.
27 Jozue alobaki na bato nyonso: — Botala, libanga oyo ekozala litatoli mpo na biso, pamba te esili koyoka maloba nyonso oyo Yawe alobi na biso. Ekozala motatoli mpo na kosambisa bino mpo ete bowangana Nzambe na bino te.
And he seide to al the puple, Lo! this stoon schal be to you in to witnessing, that ye herden alle the wordis of the Lord, whiche he spak to you, lest perauenture ye wolden denye aftirward, and lye to youre Lord God.
28 Boye, Jozue azongisaki bato, moto na moto kati na libula na ye.
And he lefte the puple, ech man in to his possessioun.
29 Sima na makambo oyo, Jozue, mwana mobali ya Nuni, mowumbu na Yawe, akufaki na mibu nkama moko na zomi.
And after these thingis Josue, the sone of Nun, the `seruaunt of the Lord, diede, an hundride yeer eld and ten.
30 Bakundaki ye na mabele ya libula na ye, na Timinati-Sera, na etuka ya bangomba ya Efrayimi, na ngambo ya nor ya ngomba Gashi.
And thei birieden hym in the costis of his possessioun, in Thannath of Sare, which is set in the hil of Effraym, fro the north part of the hil Gaas.
31 Bato ya Isalaele basalelaki Yawe tango nyonso Jozue azalaki na bomoi mpe, sima na kufa na ye, tango nyonso bampaka oyo bamonaki misala nyonso ya Yawe mpo na Isalaele bazalaki na bomoi.
And Israel seruede the Lord in alle the daies of Josue, and of the eldre men, that lyueden in long tyme aftir Josue, and whiche eldre men knewen alle the werkis of the Lord, whiche he hadde do in Israel.
32 Mpe bakundaki mikuwa ya Jozefi oyo bana ya Isalaele bamemaki wuta na Ejipito na Sishemi, na eteni ya elanga oyo Jakobi asombaki na motuya ya mbongo ya bibende nkama moko, epai ya bana mibali ya Amori, tata ya Sishemi. Yango ekoma mpe libula ya bakitani ya Jozefi.

33 Bongo, Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Aron, mpe akufaki. Bakundaki ye na ngomba moke oyo bapesaki na Pineasi, mwana na ye ya mobali, kati na etuka ya bangomba ya Efrayimi.
Also Eliazar, sone of Aaron, preest, diede; and Fynees and hise sones biryden hym in Gabaa, which was youun to hym in the hil of Efraym.
