1 Mu makya ennyo Yoswa n’Abayisirayiri bonna ne bagolokoka okuva e Sittimu, bwe baatuuka ku mugga Yoludaani ne basooka balindirira awo nga tebannagusomoka.
Adeɛ kyee anɔpahema no, Yosua ne Israelfoɔ no nyinaa tu firii Sitim kɔduruu Asubɔnten Yordan nsunoa, baabi a wɔtenaa nna kakra ansa na wɔretwa.
2 Bwe waayitawo ennaku ssatu abakulembeze baabwe ne babayitaayitamu
Nnansa akyi no, Israelfoɔ ntuanofoɔ no faa atenaeɛ hɔ nyinaa
3 nga bwe babalagira nti, “Bwe munaalaba Essanduuko ey’Endagaano ya Mukama Katonda wammwe, bakabona Abaleevi nga bagisitudde ne mulyoka muva mu kifo kino ne mugigoberera,
maa nnipa no akwankyerɛ sɛ, “Sɛ mohunu sɛ Lewifoɔ asɔfoɔ no so Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no a, monni wɔn akyi.
4 kubanga lino ekkubo temuliyitangamu. Naye wakati wammwe nayo, mulekawo ebbanga nga lya fuuti enkumi ssatu muleme okugisemberera.”
Esiane sɛ momfaa ha da no enti, wɔbɛkyerɛ mo ɛkwan. Momma akwansini fa nna mo ne wɔn ntam, na moammɛn Apam Adaka no. Monhwɛ na moammɛn ho.”
5 Awo Yoswa n’agamba Abayisirayiri nti, “Mwetukuze kubanga enkya Mukama anaakola ebyamagero mu mmwe.”
Yosua ka kyerɛɛ nkurɔfoɔ no sɛ, “Monnwira mo ho, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔkyena Awurade bɛyɛ anwanwadeɛ wɔ mo mu.”
6 Ate Yoswa n’agamba bakabona nti, “Musitule Essanduuko ey’Endagaano era mukulemberemu abantu babagoberere.” Bakabona nabo ne bakola nga Yoswa bwe yabalagira.
Anɔpa no, Yosua ka kyerɛɛ asɔfoɔ no sɛ, “Mompagya Apam Adaka no na momfa nni nnipa no anim ntwa asubɔnten no.” Ɛno enti wɔsiim.
7 Mukama n’agamba Yoswa nti, “Olwa leero ŋŋenda okukugulumiza mu maaso g’Abayisirayiri bonna balyoke bamanye nti nga bwe nnali ne Musa, era bwe ntyo bwe ndi naawe.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Ɛnnɛ, mɛhyɛ aseɛ ayɛ wo kɛseɛ wɔ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa ani so. Na ɛbɛma wɔahunu sɛ, meka wo ho sɛdeɛ na meka Mose ho no.
8 Bw’otyo onoolagira bakabona abasitula Essanduuko ey’Endagaano nti bwe mutuuka ku mugga Yoludaani, muyimirire buyimirizi.”
Fa saa akwankyerɛ yi ma asɔfoɔ a wɔso Apam Adaka no: ‘Sɛ moduru Asubɔnten Yordan nsunoa hɔ a, monnante nkɔ nsuo no mu kakra na monnyina.’”
9 Yoswa n’ayita Abayisirayiri nti, “Musembere wano muwulire ebigambo bya Mukama Katonda wammwe.
Na Yosua ka kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, “Mommra mmɛtie asɛm a Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn aka.
10 Olwa leero mugenda okutegeera nti Katonda omulamu ali mu mmwe, kubanga anaagobera ddala Abakanani, n’Abakiiti, n’Abakiivi, n’Abaperezi, n’Abagirugaasi, n’Abamoli, n’Abayebusi mmwe nga mulaba.
Ɛnnɛ mobɛhunu sɛ Onyankopɔn teasefoɔ no ka mo ho. Ampa ara ɔbɛpam Kanaanfoɔ, Hetifoɔ, Hewifoɔ, Perisifoɔ, Girgasifoɔ, Amorifoɔ ne Yebusifoɔ.
11 Laba, Essanduuko ey’Endagaano ya Mukama w’ensi zonna y’eneebakulemberamu nga musomoka omugga guno Yoludaani.
Monnwene ho! Apam Adaka a ɛyɛ Awurade a asase nyinaa yɛ ne dea no bɛdi mo anim de mo atware Asubɔnten Yordan.
12 Kale nno mulonde abasajja kkumi na babiri okuva mu bika bya Isirayiri nga buli kika mulondamu omu omu:
Afei, monyiyi nnipa dumienu a ɔbaako biara firi mmusuakuo dumienu no mu.
13 Bakabona abasitudde Essanduuko ya Mukama w’ensi zonna, olunaalinnya ebigere byabwe mu mugga Yoludaani, amazzi agabadde gakulukuta gonna ganaayimirira ne geetuuma.”
Asɔfoɔ no bɛsoa Awurade a ɔyɛ asase nyinaa wura no Adaka no. Sɛ wɔn nan nya si nsuo no mu ara pɛ, asuo no bɛtwa afiri atifi ama ano aboa wɔ hɔ.”
14 Awo Abayisirayiri ne basimbula weema zaabwe okusomoka Yoludaani nga bakulembeddwamu bakabona abasitudde Essanduuko y’Endagaano.
Ɛberɛ a nnipa no sɔree sɛ wɔrekɔtwa Yordan no, asɔfoɔ a na wɔso Apam Adaka no dii wɔn anim.
15 Omugga Yoludaani gwanjaala mu kiseera eky’amakungula kyonna. Mu kiseera ekyo bakabona abasitudde Essanduuko we baalinnyira ebigere byabwe ku Yoludaani.
Na ɛyɛ otwaberɛ mu enti na Yordan no ayiri aba nsunoa. Nanso, asɔfoɔ a wɔso Adaka no nan sii asuo no ano pɛ,
16 Amangwago amazzi agaali gakulukuta ne gayimirira ne geetuuma eri ewala okuliraana ekibuga Adamu ku ludda lwa Zaresaani. N’ago agaali gaserengeta okweyiwa mu Araba Ennyanja ey’Omunnyo ne gasalikako, abantu ne basomokera Yoludaani ku ttaka ekkalu, mu maaso ga Yeriko.
asuo no ano hyɛɛ aseɛ boaa wɔ nʼatifi fam, baabi a wɔfrɛ hɔ Adam a ɛbɛn Saretan. Na asuo a ɛwɔ anafoɔ no nso tene kɔguu Nkyene Ɛpo no mu kɔsii sɛ asuo no subɔnhwa no weeɛ. Enti, nnipa no nyinaa twaa wɔ beaeɛ bi a ɛbɛn Yeriko kuropɔn no.
17 Bakabona abasitudde Essanduuko ya Mukama ne bayimirira wakati mu Yoludaani awatakyali mazzi okutuusa Abayisirayiri bonna lwe baasomoka.
Saa ɛberɛ no mu, asɔfoɔ a wɔso Awurade Apam Adaka no gyinaa asase kesee so wɔ subɔnhwa no mfimfini ma nnipa no nyinaa twaa mu. Wɔtwɛnee wɔ hɔ kɔsii sɛ obiara faa asase kesee so twaa Yordan.
