1 Ade kyee anɔpahema no, Yosua ne Israelfo no nyinaa tu fii Sitim koduu Asubɔnten Yordan nsunoa, baabi a wɔtenaa nna kakra ansa na wɔretwa.
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 Nnansa akyi no, Israelfo ntuanofo no faa atenae hɔ nyinaa
And whanne tho daies weren passid, crieris yeden thorouy the myddis of tentis,
3 maa nnipa no akwankyerɛ sɛ, “Sɛ muhu sɛ Lewifo asɔfo no so Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn Apam Adaka no a, munni wɔn akyi.
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 Esiane sɛ momfaa ha da no nti, wɔbɛkyerɛ mo kwan. Momma ɔkwansin fa nna mo ne wɔn ntam, na moammɛn Apam Adaka no. Monhwɛ na moammɛn ho.”

5 Yosua ka kyerɛɛ nkurɔfo no se, “Munnwira mo ho, efisɛ, ɔkyena Awurade bɛyɛ anwonwade wɔ mo mu.”
And Josue seide to the puple, Be ye halewid, for to morew the Lord schal make merueilis among you.
6 Anɔpa no, Yosua ka kyerɛɛ asɔfo no se, “Mompagyaw Apam Adaka no na momfa nni nnipa no anim ntwa asubɔnten no.” Ɛno nti wosii mu.
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 Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua se, “Nnɛ, mefi ase ayɛ wo ɔkɛse wɔ Israelfo no nyinaa ani so. Na ɛbɛma wɔahu sɛ, meka wo ho sɛnea na meka Mose ho no.
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 Fa saa akwankyerɛ yi ma asɔfo a wɔso Apam Adaka no: ‘Sɛ mudu Asubɔnten Yordan nsunoa hɔ a, monnantew nkɔ nsu no mu kakra na munnyina.’”
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 Na Yosua ka kyerɛɛ Israelfo no se, “Mommra mmetie asɛm a Awurade, mo Nyankopɔn aka.
And Josue seide to the sones of Israel, Neiye ye hidur, and here ye the word of youre Lord God.
10 Nnɛ mubehu sɛ Onyankopɔn teasefo no ka mo ho. Ampa ara ɔbɛpam Kanaanfo, Hetifo, Hewifo, Perisifo, Girgasifo, Amorifo ne Yebusifo.
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 Munnwen ho! Apam Adaka a ɛyɛ Awurade a asase nyinaa yɛ ne de no bedi mo anim de mo atwa Asubɔnten Yordan.
Lo! the arke of boond of pees of the Lord of al erthe schal go bifor you thorouy Jordan.
12 Afei, munyiyi nnipa dumien a ɔbaako biara fi mmusuakuw dumien no mu.
Make ye redi twelue men of the twelue lynagis of Israel, bi ech lynage o man.
