1 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.
Na Yosua frɛɛ Israelfoɔ nyinaa, wɔn mpanimfoɔ, ntuanofoɔ, atemmufoɔ ne adwumayɛfoɔ kɔɔ Sekem. Na wɔn nyinaa baa Onyankopɔn anim.
2 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.
Yosua ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Sɛdeɛ Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn seɛ nie: Mo tete agyanom, Tera a ɔyɛ Abraham agya ne Nahor tenaa Asubɔnten Eufrate agya nohoa na wɔsomm anyame foforɔ.
3 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.
Nanso, mefaa mo agya Abraham firii asase a ɛda Eufrate agya hɔ de no baa Kanaan asase so. Mefaa ne ba Isak so maa nʼasefoɔ dɔɔso.
4 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.
Mede Yakob ne Esau maa Isak. Mede Seir bepɔman no maa Esau, ɛnna Yakob ne ne mma siane kɔɔ Misraim.
5 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.
“Na mesomaa Mose ne Aaron, na mede ɔyaredɔm a ɛyɛ hu baa Misraimfoɔ no so na akyire yi, meyii mo firii hɔ ma monyaa ahofadie.
6 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.
Ɛberɛ a mo agyanom duruu Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ ho no, Misraimfoɔ no de wɔn nteaseɛnam ne wɔn apɔnkɔkafoɔ taa wɔn.
7 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.
Mosu frɛɛ Awurade no, mede esum bɛtoo mo ne Misraimfoɔ no ntam, memaa Ɛpo no bu faa wɔn so kataa wɔn so. Mo ankasa mode mo ani hunuu deɛ meyɛeɛ. Afei motenaa ɛserɛ so mfeɛ bebree.
8 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.
“Mede mo baa Amorifoɔ asase so wɔ Yordan apueeɛ fam. Wɔne mo koeɛ, nanso memaa modii wɔn so nkonim na mofaa wɔn asase.
9 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:
Na Moabhene Sipor babarima Balak hyɛɛ aseɛ ko tiaa Israel. Ɔka kyerɛɛ Beor babarima Balaam sɛ ɔnnome mo.
10 Ka naʻe ʻikai te u tokanga kia Pelami ko ia naʻa ne tāpuakiʻi pe ʻakimoutolu pea ne u fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei hono nima,
Nanso, mantie no, na mmom mema ɔhyiraa mo, na megyee mo firii Balak nsam.
11 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.
“Na motwaa Asubɔnten Yordan baa Yeriko no, Yeriko mmarima ko tiaa mo. Na nkurɔfoɔ pii nso ko tiaa mo a Amorifoɔ, Perisifoɔ, Kanaanfoɔ, Hetifoɔ, Girgasifoɔ, Hewifoɔ ne Yebusifoɔ ka ho. Nanso, mema modii wɔn so nkonim.
12 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.
Afei, mesomaa nnowa dii mo anim ma wɔkɔpamoo Amorifoɔ ahemfo baanu no. Ɛnyɛ mo akofena anaa mo agyan na ɛma modii nkonim.
13 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 “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.
“Enti, monni Awurade ni, na momfa mo akoma nyinaa nsom no. Monto ahoni a mo agyanom somee no wɔ ɛberɛ a na wɔte Asubɔnten Eufrate agya ne Misraim no nyinaa ngu korakora. Monsom Awurade nko ara.
15 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 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;
Na ɔman no buaa sɛ, “Yɛrempa Awurade akyi nkɔsom anyame foforɔ.
17 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:
Ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn na ɔgyee yɛn ne yɛn agyanom firii nkoasom mu wɔ Misraim. Ɔyɛɛ anwanwadeɛ akɛseɛ wɔ yɛn anim. Na yɛfaa ɛserɛ so wɔ yɛn atamfoɔ mu no, ɔbɔɔ yɛn ho ban.
18 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.”
Ɛyɛ Awurade na ɔpamoo Amorifoɔ ne aman foforɔ a na wɔte asase yi so no. Enti yɛn nso, yɛbɛsom Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔno nko ne yɛn Onyankopɔn.”
19 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.
Na Yosua ka kyerɛɛ nnipa no sɛ, “Morentumi nsom Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔyɛ kronkron ne ninkunfoɔ Onyankopɔn. Ɔremfa mo atuateɛ ne mo bɔne nkyɛ mo.
20 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.”
Sɛ mopa Awurade akyi na mosom anyame foforɔ a, ɔbɛdane atia mo, asɛe mo a ɛmfa ho sɛ ɔne mo adi no yie.”
21 Pea naʻa nau tala kia Siosiua, “ʻE ʻikai; ka te mau tauhi ʻa Sihova.”
Nnipa no buaa Yosua sɛ, “Dabi, yɛasi yɛn adwene pi sɛ yɛbɛsom Awurade.”
22 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.”
Yosua nso kaa sɛ, “Mobɛbu saa gyinaeɛ yi ho akonta. Moaka sɛ mobɛsom Awurade.” Wɔbuaeɛ sɛ, “Aane, yɛbɛbu ho akonta.”
23 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.”
Yosua kaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, monsɛe ahoni a mowɔ nyinaa na momfa mo akoma nto Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn so.”
24 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he kakai kia Siosiua, “Te mau tauhi ʻa Sihova ko homau ʻOtua, pea te mau fai talangofua ki hono leʻo.”
Nnipa no ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ, “Yɛbɛsom Awurade, yɛn Onyankopɔn. Yɛbɛyɛ ɔsetie ama ɔno nko ara.”
25 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.
Enti, Yosua ne nnipa no yɛɛ apam saa ɛda no wɔ Sekem, de wɔn hyɛɛ nhyehyɛeɛ a emu yɛ den na ɛbɛtena hɔ daa wɔ wɔne Awurade ntam.
26 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 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.”
Yosua ka kyerɛɛ nnipa no sɛ, “Saa ɔbotan yi ate biribiara a Awurade aka akyerɛ yɛn no. Sɛ moanni mo Onyankopɔn nokorɛ a, ɛbɛyɛ adansedeɛ atia mo.”
28 Pea naʻe tukuange ʻe Siosiua ʻae kakai kenau ʻalu, taki taha ʻae tangata ki hono tofiʻa.
Afei, Yosua gyaa nnipa no kwan maa obiara kɔɔ nʼagyapadeɛ so.
29 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.
