And he rose early Joshua in the morning and they set out from Shittim and they came to the Jordan he and all [the] people Israel and they stayed there before they passed over.
2 Lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ kẹta àwọn olórí la àárín ibùdó já.
And it was from [the] end of three days and they passed the officers in [the] midst of the camp.
3 Wọ́n sì pàṣẹ fún àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Nígbà tí ẹ bá rí àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, tí àwọn àlùfáà tí wọ́n jẹ́ ọmọ Lefi rù ú, nígbà náà ni ẹ̀yin yóò sí kúrò ní ipò yín, ẹ̀yin yóò sì máa tẹ̀lé e.
And they commanded the people saying when see you [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh God your and the priests the Levites carrying it and you you will set out from place your and you will go behind it.
4 Ẹyin yóò lè mọ ọ̀nà tí ẹ ó gbà, torí pé ẹ̀yin kò gba ọ̀nà yìí tẹ́lẹ̀ rí. Ṣùgbọ́n àlàfo gbọdọ̀ wà ní àárín yín àti àpótí náà, tó bí ìwọ̀n ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ìgbọ̀nwọ́.”
Nevertheless - a distance it will be between you (and between it *Q(k)*) about two thousand cubit[s] by measurement may not you draw near to it so that that you may know the way which you will go in it for not you have passed in the way from yesterday three days ago.
5 Joṣua sì sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn pé, “Ẹ ya ara yín sí mímọ́, nítorí ní ọ̀la, Olúwa yóò ṣe ohun ìyanu ní àárín yín.”
And he said Joshua to the people consecrate yourselves for tomorrow he will do Yahweh in midst your wonders.
6 Joṣua sọ fún àwọn àlùfáà pé, “Ẹ̀yin, ẹ gbé àpótí ẹ̀rí náà kí ẹ̀yin kí ó sì máa lọ ṣáájú àwọn ènìyàn.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n gbé e sókè, wọ́n sì ń lọ ní iwájú u wọn.
And he said Joshua to the priests saying lift up [the] ark of the covenant and pass over before the people and they lifted up [the] ark of the covenant and they went before the people.
7 Olúwa sì sọ fún Joṣua pé, “Òní yìí ni Èmi yóò bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í gbé ọ ga ní ojú u gbogbo àwọn ará Israẹli, kí wọn lè mọ̀ pé Èmi wà pẹ̀lú rẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ṣe wà pẹ̀lú Mose.
And he said Yahweh to Joshua the day this I will begin to make great you in [the] eyes of all Israel that they will know! that just as I was with Moses I will be with you.
8 Sọ fún àwọn àlùfáà tí ó ru àpótí ẹ̀rí náà, ‘Nígbà tí ẹ bá dé etí omi Jordani, ẹ lọ kí ẹ sì dúró nínú odò náà.’”
And you you will command the priests [the] bearers of [the] ark of the covenant saying when come you to [the] edge of [the] waters of the Jordan in the Jordan you will stand still.
9 Joṣua sì sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli pé, “Ẹ súnmọ́ ibí kí ẹ̀yin kí ó sì fetí sí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín.
And he said Joshua to [the] people of Israel draw near hither and hear [the] words of Yahweh God your.
10 Èyí ni ẹ̀yin yóò fi mọ̀ pé Ọlọ́run alààyè wà ní àárín yín àti pé dájúdájú yóò lé àwọn ará Kenaani, àwọn ará Hiti, Hifi, Peresi, Girgaṣi, Amori àti Jebusi jáde níwájú u yín.
And he said Joshua by this you will know! that God living [is] in midst your and certainly he will dispossess from before you the Canaanite[s] and the Hittite[s] and the Hivite[s] and the Perizzite[s] and the Girgashite[s] and the Amorite[s] and the Jebusite[s].
11 Àpótí májẹ̀mú Olúwa gbogbo ayé ń gòkè lọ sí Jordani ṣáájú u yín.
Here! [the] ark of the covenant [the] lord of all the earth [is] about to pass on before you in the Jordan.
12 Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí, ẹ mú ọkùnrin méjìlá nínú àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli, ẹnìkan nínú ẹ̀yà kọ̀ọ̀kan.
And therefore take for yourselves two [plus] ten man from [the] tribes of Israel a man one a man one to the tribe.
13 Bí àwọn àlùfáà tí ó ru àpótí Olúwa, Olúwa gbogbo ayé bá ti ẹsẹ̀ bọ odò Jordani, omi tí ń ti òkè sàn wá yóò gé kúrò yóò sì gbá jọ bí òkìtì kan.”
And it will be when rest [the] soles of [the] feet of the priests [the] bearers of [the] ark of Yahweh [the] lord of all the earth in [the] waters of the Jordan [the] waters of the Jordan they will be cut off! the waters that are coming down from to above so they may stand a heap one.
14 Nígbà tí àwọn ènìyàn gbéra láti ibùdó láti kọjá nínú odò Jordani, àwọn àlùfáà tí ó ru àpótí ẹ̀rí náà ń lọ níwájú wọn.
And it was when set out the people from tents their to pass over the Jordan and the priests [the] bearers of the ark the covenant before the people.
15 Odò Jordani sì máa ń wà ní kíkún ní gbogbo ìgbà ìkórè. Ṣùgbọ́n bí àwọn àlùfáà tí ó ru àpótí ẹ̀rí ti dé odò Jordani tí ẹsẹ̀ wọn sì kan etí omi,
And just as came [the] bearers of the ark to the Jordan and [the] feet of the priests [the] bearers of the ark they were dipped in [the] edge of the waters and the Jordan it is full over all banks its all [the] days of harvest.
16 omi tí ń ti òkè sàn wá dúró. Ó sì gbá jọ bí òkìtì ní òkèèrè, ní ìlú tí a ń pè ní Adamu, tí ó wà ní tòsí Saretani; nígbà tí omi tí ń sàn lọ sínú Òkun aginjù (ti o túmọ̀ sí Òkun Iyọ̀) gé kúrò pátápátá. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ènìyàn kọjá sí òdìkejì ní ìdojúkọ Jeriko.
And they stood the waters which came down from to above they rose a heap one far away very (from Adam *Q(K)*) the city which [is] from [the] side of Zarethan and which went down to [the] sea of the Arabah [the] Sea of Salt they were complete they were cut off and the people they passed over before Jericho.
17 Àwọn àlùfáà tí ó ru àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa sì dúró ṣinṣin lórí ilẹ̀ gbígbẹ ní àárín Jordani, nígbà tí gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ń kọjá títí gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè náà fi rékọjá nínú odò Jordani lórí ilẹ̀ gbígbẹ.
And they stood the priests [the] bearers of the ark [the] covenant of Yahweh on the dry ground in [the] middle of the Jordan firmly and all Israel [were] passing over on the dry ground until that they had finished all the nation to pass over the Jordan.
