Jozue 3
1 Na tongo-tongo, Jozue mpe bana nyonso ya Isalaele babimaki wuta na Shitimi mpe bakendeki kino na Yordani epai wapi batongaki molako na bango liboso ete bakatisa.
Therfor Josue roos bi nyyt, and mouede tentis; and thei yeden out of Sechym, and camen to Jordan, he and alle the sones of Israel, and dwelliden there thre daies.
2 Sima na mikolo misato, bakambi bakomaki kotambola kati na molako
And whanne tho daies weren passid, crieris yeden thorouy the myddis of tentis,
3 mpo na kopesa bato mitindo oyo: — Soki bomoni Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe Banganga-Nzambe oyo bazali Balevi komema yango, bolongwa na bisika oyo bozali mpe bolanda yango.
and bigunnen to crie, Whanne ye seen the arke of boond of pees of youre Lord God, and the preestis of the generacioun of Leuy berynge it, also rise ye, and sue the biforgoeris;
4 Bongo bokoyeba nzela nini bokoki kolanda mpo ete nanu botambola na nzela yango te. Kasi bozala mosika na Sanduku ya Boyokani, na bametele pene nkoto moko, bopusana pene na yango te.
and a space of twey thousynde cubitis be bitwixe you and the arke, that ye moun se fer, and knowe bi what weie ye schulen entre, for ye `yeden not bifore bi it; and be ye war, that ye neiye not to the arke.
5 Jozue alobaki na bato: — Bomibulisa, pamba te lobi, Yawe akosala makambo ya kokamwa kati na bino.
And Josue seide to the puple, Be ye halewid, for to morew the Lord schal make merueilis among you.
6 Jozue alobaki na Banganga-Nzambe: — Bomema Sanduku ya Boyokani mpe botambola liboso ya bato. Batombolaki yango mpe batambolaki liboso ya bato.
And Josue seide to the preestis, Take ye the arke of the boond of pees `of the Lord, and go ye bifor the puple. Whiche filliden the heestis, and tooken the arke, and yeden bifor hem.
7 Yawe alobaki na Jozue: — Lelo, nakobanda kotombola yo na miso ya bana nyonso ya Isalaele mpo ete bayeba ete nazali mpe elongo na yo ndenge nazalaki elongo na Moyize.
And the Lord seide to Josue, To dai Y schal bigynne to enhaunse thee bifor al Israel, that thei wite, that as Y was with Moises, so Y am also with thee.
8 Yebisa Banganga-Nzambe oyo bamemi Sanduku ya Boyokani: « Tango bokokoma pembeni ya mayi ya Yordani, botia makolo na bino kati na mayi mpe botelema wana. »
Forsothe comaunde thou to preestis, that beren the arke of bond of pees, and seie thou to hem, Whanne ye han entrid in to a part of the watir of Jordan, stonde ye therynne.
9 Jozue alobaki na bana ya Isalaele: — Bopusana awa mpe boyoka maloba ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
And Josue seide to the sones of Israel, Neiye ye hidur, and here ye the word of youre Lord God.
10 Bongo Jozue alobaki: — Ezali na nzela oyo nde bokoyeba solo ete Nzambe na bomoi azali elongo na bino mpe akobengana liboso na bino bato ya Kanana, ya Iti, ya Evi, ya Perizi, ya Girigazi, ya Amori mpe ya Yebusi.
And eft he seide, In this ye schulen wite that the Lord God lyuynge is in the myddis of you; and he schal distrye in youre siyt Cananey, Ethei, Euey, and Feresei, and Gergesei, and Jebusei, and Amorrei.
11 Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe ya mokili mobimba ekoleka liboso na bino kati na mayi ya Yordani.
Lo! the arke of boond of pees of the Lord of al erthe schal go bifor you thorouy Jordan.
12 Sik’oyo, bopona bato zomi na mibale kati na mabota ya Isalaele, moto moko mpo na libota moko.
Make ye redi twelue men of the twelue lynagis of Israel, bi ech lynage o man.
13 Mpe tango kaka Banganga-Nzambe oyo bakomema Sanduku ya Yawe, Nkolo ya mokili mobimba, bakotia matambe ya makolo na bango kati na Yordani, mayi na yango ekokabwana na biteni mibale; mayi oyo ekowuta na ngambo ya likolo ekotelema lokola mir.
And whanne the preestis, that beren the arke of boond of pees of the Lord God of al erthe, han set the steppis of her feet in the watris of Jordan, the watris that ben lowere schulen renne doun, and schulen faile; forsothe the watris that comen fro aboue schulen stonde togidere in o gobet.
14 Boye tango bato bakobima na molako mpo na kokatisa Yordani, Banganga-Nzambe oyo bakomema Sanduku ya Boyokani bakotambola liboso na bango.
Therfor the puple yede out of her tabernaclis to passe Jordan; and the preestis that baren the arke of boond of pees yeden bifor the puple.
15 Nzokande, na tango ya kobuka milona, mayi ya Yordani etondaka makasi penza. Kasi tango kaka Banganga-Nzambe oyo bamemaki Sanduku bakomaki pembeni ya Yordani mpe batiaki matambe na bango kati na mayi,
And whanne the preestis entriden in to Jordan, and her feet weren dippid in the part of watir; forsothe Jordan `hadde fillid the brynkis of his trow in the tyme of `ripe corn;
16 mayi oyo ezalaki kowuta na ngambo ya likolo etikaki kotiola mpe esalaki lokola mir moko ya monene, mpe etikaki nzela moko ya monene wuta na engumba Adamu, oyo ezalaki pembeni ya Tsaritani; bongo na ngambo mosusu, mayi oyo ezalaki kokita kino na ebale monene ya Araba, ebale monene ya Barozo, ya lubwaku ya Yordani, esilaki nyonso. Bato bakatisaki kino na Jeriko oyo ezalaki liboso na bango.
the watris yeden doun, and stoden in o place, and wexiden grete at the licnesse of an hil, and apperiden fer fro the citee that was clepid Edom, `til to the place of Sarthan; sotheli the watris that weren lowere yeden doun in to the see of wildirnesse, which is now clepid the deed see, `til the watris failiden outirli.
17 Banganga-Nzambe oyo bamemaki Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe bapikamaki na mabele ya kokawuka, na kati-kati ya mayi ya Yordani, wana bana nyonso ya Isalaele bazalaki koleka kino tango ekolo mobimba esilisaki kokatisa na mabele ya kokawuka.
Forsothe the puple yede thorouy Jordan; and the preestis, that baren the arke of the boond of pees of the Lord, stoden gird on the drie erthe in the myddis of Jordan, and al the puple passide thorouy the drie trow.
