Mgbe mba ahụ niile gafesịrị osimiri Jọdan, Onyenwe anyị gwara Joshua okwu sị ya,
2 “Yiyi mmarima dumienu firi ɔmanfoɔ no mu a ɔbaako biara firi abusuakuo no bi mu
“Site nʼetiti ndị ụmụ Izrel họpụta ndị ikom iri na abụọ, otu onye site nʼebo ọbụla,
3 na ka kyerɛ wɔn sɛ, wɔmfa aboɔ dumienu mfiri Yordan mfimfini nifa so wɔ baabi a na asɔfoɔ no gyina hɔ, na wɔnsoa mfa ntwa mmra mmɛgu baabi a mobɛtena anadwo yi.”
ka onye ọbụla nʼime ha site nʼebe ahụ ndị nchụaja guzoro nʼetiti osimiri Jọdan buputa otu nkume, otu nkume, gwa ha ka ha debe nkume ndị a ha buputara nʼebe unu ga-anọ ọnọdụ abalị taa.”
4 Ɛnna Yosua frɛɛ mmarima dumienu a ɔyii wɔn firii Israelfoɔ no mu no a ɔbaako biara firi abusuakuo bi mu no,
Ya mere, Joshua kpọrọ ndị ikom iri na abụọ ndị ahụ, ndị ọ họpụtara, site nʼetiti ndị Izrel, otu onye site nʼebo ọbụla,
5 na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monkɔdi Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, adaka no anim mfa nkɔ Yordan mfimfini. Ɔbaako biara mfa ɛboɔ nto ne batiri so sɛdeɛ Israelfoɔ mmusuakuo no dodoɔ te,
Ọ gwara ha sị, “Sitenụ nʼetiti osimiri Jọdan, ebe ndị bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu guzoro, buputa nkume. Onye ọbụla nʼime unu ga-ebuputa otu nkume, tụkwasị nʼubu ya, dịka ọnụọgụgụ ebo Izrel niile si dị,
6 na ɛnyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ wɔ mo mu. Sɛ daakye bi, mo mma bisa mo sɛ, ‘Saa aboɔ yi ase kyerɛ sɛn’ a,
ka ha bụrụ ihe ịrịbama nʼetiti unu. Nʼoge dị nʼihu, mgbe ụmụ unu ga-ajụ unu ajụjụ sị, ‘Gịnị bụ isi ogidi nkume a dị nʼebe a?’
7 monka nkyerɛ wɔn sɛ, Yordan asutene no twaeɛ wɔ Awurade apam adaka no anim. Ɛberɛ a Awurade apam adaka no twaa Yordan asutene no, asuo no weeɛ. Saa aboɔ yi bɛyɛ nkaedeɛ ama Israelfoɔ daa nyinaa.”
Unu ga-asịkwa ha, ‘Ọ bụ ihe na-echetara anyị otu osimiri Jọdan si kwụsị ịsọ, mgbe ndị bụ igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị zọnyere ụkwụ ha nʼosimiri ahụ.’ Nkume a ga-abụkwara ụmụ Izrel niile ihe ncheta ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
8 Enti, mmarima no yɛɛ sɛdeɛ Yosua kyerɛɛ wɔn no. Wɔfaa aboɔ dumienu firii Asubɔnten Yordan mfimfini a ɛboɔ baako biara gyina hɔ ma abusuakuo baako, sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛɛ Yosua no. Wɔsoa de kɔɔ baabi a wɔtenaa hɔ anadwo no na wɔsii nkaeɛdum wɔ hɔ.
Ụmụ Izrel mere dịka Joshua gwara ha. Ha buputara nkume iri na abụọ site nʼetiti osimiri Jọdan, dịka Onyenwe anyị si nye Joshua nʼiwu sị na otu onye, nʼebo Izrel ọbụla, ga-ebuputa otu nkume. Ha buuru nkume iri na abụọ ndị ahụ gaa nʼebe ha nọrọ ọnọdụ abalị, debe ha nʼebe ahụ.
9 Yosua nso de aboɔ dumienu sii nkaeɛdum wɔ Yordan mfimfini wɔ baabi a na asɔfoɔ a wɔso apam Adaka no gyina hɔ. Ɛwɔ hɔ bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
Joshua nʼonwe ya kwa ji nkume iri na abụọ ahụ nke si nʼetiti osimiri Jọdan wuo ogidi ịrịbama, nʼebe ahụ ndị nchụaja bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ guzoro. Ha dịkwa nʼebe ahụ ruo taa.
10 Asɔfoɔ a na wɔso adaka no gyinaa asuo no mfimfini hɔ ara kɔsii sɛ Awurade ahyɛdeɛ a ɔnam Mose so de maa Yosua no, wɔyɛɛ ne nyinaa. Saa ɛberɛ no, nnipa no yɛɛ ntɛm twaa asuo no kɔsii ne konkɔn so.
Ndị nchụaja, ndị bụ igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, guzoro nʼetiti osimiri Jọdan, tutu ruo mgbe e mezuru iwu ahụ niile Onyenwe anyị nyere Joshua site nʼọnụ Mosis. Mgbe ahụ kwa, ndị Izrel mere ngwangwa gafee osimiri Jọdan.
11 Na ɛberɛ a obiara duruu asuo no fa hɔ no, asɔfoɔ no nso de Awurade adaka no tware kɔɔ ɛfa hɔ bi.
Ngwangwa ha niile gafetasịrị, igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị na ndị nchụaja gafetakwara nʼakụkụ nke ọzọ, ka ndị mmadụ na-ele ha anya.
12 Na akofoɔ a wɔahyɛ wɔn akodeɛ a wɔfiri Ruben abusuakuo mu, Gad abusuakuo mu ne Manase abusuakuo fa mu akofoɔ no dii Israelfoɔ no anim twaa Yordan sɛdeɛ Mose kyerɛɛ wɔn no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
Ndị agha ụmụ Ruben, na ụmụ Gad, na ọkara ebo Manase, buuru ụmụ Izrel niile ụzọ gafee, idu ha nʼagha, dịka Mosis nyere ha nʼiwu.
13 Saa akofoɔ yi, na wɔn dodoɔ bɛyɛ mpem aduanan a wɔasiesie wɔn ho ama ɔko. Wɔtwa kɔɔ Yeriko asase so wɔ Awurade anim.
Ndị agha ọnụọgụgụ ha ruru iri puku anọ, ndị jikeere nke ọma ibu agha, duuru ebo ndị ọzọ, gafere nʼihu Onyenwe anyị bata nʼobosara ala Jeriko maka ibu agha.
14 Saa ɛda no, Awurade yɛɛ Yosua kɛseɛ wɔ Israelfoɔ no nyinaa anim na Yosua nna a aka no nyinaa, Israelfoɔ de obuo ne anidie maa no sɛdeɛ wɔde obuo ne anidie maa Mose no.
Ụbọchị ahụ bụ ụbọchị Onyenwe anyị buliri Joshua elu nke ukwuu nʼihi na o mere Joshua ka ọ dị ukwuu nʼanya ndị Izrel niile, si otu a mee ka ha tụọ ya egwu nke ukwuu dịka ha si tụọ Mosis egwu, ma sọpụkwara ya ụbọchị niile nke ndụ ya.
15 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ,
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Joshua okwu sị,
16 “Hyɛ asɔfoɔ a Awurade apam adaka no so wɔn no sɛ, wɔmfiri subɔnhwa no mu hɔ mmra.”
“Nye ndị nchụaja, ndị bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ iwu ka ha si nʼosimiri Jọdan pụta.”
Ya mere Joshua nyere ndị nchụaja iwu sị ha, “Sitenụ nʼosimiri Jọdan pụta.”
18 Na ɛberɛ a asɔfoɔ a wɔso Awurade apam adaka no firii subɔnhwa no mu ara pɛ na Asubɔnten Yordan sane ka sram so tɛntɛntɛn te sɛ kane no.
Mgbe ndị nchụaja bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ si nʼosimiri Jọdan rịpụta, dịka ọbụ ụkwụ ha na-emetụ nʼala akọrọ, mmiri osimiri ahụ sọghachiri nʼọnọdụ ya ruchie akụkụ ya niile, ka ọ dị na mbụ.
19 Bosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda ɛtɔ so edu no nnipa no foro firii Yordan kɔbɔɔ atenaeɛ wɔ Gilgal, Yeriko apueeɛ.
Ihe ịrịbama a mere nʼụbọchị nke iri, nʼọnwa nke mbụ. Nʼụbọchị ahụ ka ndị Izrel niile gafere osimiri Jọdan, gaa maa ụlọ ikwu ha na Gilgal, ebe dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ obodo Jeriko.
20 Gilgal hɔ na Yosua boaa aboɔ dumienu a wɔde firi Asubɔnten Yordan mu baeɛ no ano.
Nkume iri na abụọ ahụ ha si nʼosimiri Jọdan buputa, ka Joshua guzobere na Gilgal.
21 Afei, Yosua ka kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ no sɛ, “Daakye bi mo mma bɛbisa sɛ, ‘Saa aboɔ yi kyerɛ sɛn?’
Ọ sịrị ndị Izrel, “Nʼoge dị nʼihu, mgbe ụmụ unu ga-ajụ ndị bụ nna ha ajụjụ sị, ‘Gịnị ka nkume ndị a pụtara, Gịnịkwa ka ha na-egosi?’
22 Na mo nso moaka akyerɛ wɔn sɛ, ‘Ɛha ne beaeɛ a Israelfoɔ twaa Yordan wɔ asase wesee so no.’
Gwa ha, ‘Izrel gafere osimiri Jọdan nʼala akọrọ.’
23 Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, maa nsuo no wee wɔ mo anim na ɔkɔɔ so ma ɛweeɛ ara kɔsii sɛ mo nyinaa twareeɛ, sɛdeɛ ɔyɛeɛ wɔ Ɛpo Kɔkɔɔ no. Ɔmaa no weeɛ ara kɔsii sɛ yɛn nyinaa twareeɛ.
Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke unu mere ka osimiri Jọdan takpọọ nʼihu unu tutu ruo mgbe unu gafesịrị nʼofe nke ọzọ. Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu mere osimiri Jọdan ihe o mere osimiri Uhie mgbe o mere ka osimiri Uhie takpọọ nʼihu anyị, tutu ruo mgbe anyị gafesịrị nʼofe ya nke ọzọ.
24 Ɔyɛɛ yei sɛdeɛ aman a wɔwɔ ewiase nyinaa bɛhunu Awurade tumi na mo nso moasuro Awurade, mo Onyankopɔn, daa nyinaa.”
O mere ihe ndị a niile ka ndị niile bi nʼelu ụwa mata na aka Onyenwe anyị dị ike. O mekwara ya ka unu onwe unu tụọ egwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu, mgbe niile.”
