< Joshua 1 >

1 Now after the death of Moses the servant of Yahweh, Yahweh spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ servant, saying,
et factum est ut post mortem Mosi servi Domini loqueretur Dominus ad Iosue filium Nun ministrum Mosi et diceret ei
2 “Moses my servant is dead. Now therefore arise, go across this Jordan, you and all these people, to the land which I am giving to them, even to the children of Israel.
Moses servus meus mortuus est surge et transi Iordanem istum tu et omnis populus tecum in terram quam ego dabo filiis Israhel
3 I have given you every place that the sole of your foot will tread on, as I told Moses.
omnem locum quem calcaverit vestigium pedis vestri vobis tradam sicut locutus sum Mosi
4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon even to the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border.
a deserto et Libano usque ad fluvium magnum Eufraten omnis terra Hettheorum usque ad mare Magnum contra solis occasum erit terminus vester
5 No man will be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not fail you nor forsake you.
nullus vobis poterit resistere cunctis diebus vitae tuae sicut fui cum Mose ero et tecum non dimittam nec derelinquam te
6 “Be strong and courageous; for you shall cause this people to inherit the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.
confortare et esto robustus tu enim sorte divides populo huic terram pro qua iuravi patribus suis ut traderem eam illis
7 Only be strong and very courageous. Be careful to observe to do according to all the law which Moses my servant commanded you. Don’t turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go.
confortare igitur et esto robustus valde ut custodias et facias omnem legem quam praecepit tibi Moses servus meus ne declines ab ea ad dextram vel ad sinistram ut intellegas cuncta quae agis
8 This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it; for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.
non recedat volumen legis huius de ore tuo sed meditaberis in eo diebus ac noctibus ut custodias et facias omnia quae scripta sunt in eo tunc diriges viam tuam et intelleges eam
9 Haven’t I commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be dismayed, for Yahweh your God is with you wherever you go.”
ecce praecipio tibi confortare et esto robustus noli metuere et noli timere quoniam tecum est Dominus Deus tuus in omnibus ad quaecumque perrexeris
10 Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,
praecepitque Iosue principibus populi dicens transite per medium castrorum et imperate populo ac dicite
11 “Pass through the middle of the camp, and command the people, saying, ‘Prepare food; for within three days you are to pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land which Yahweh your God gives you to possess.’”
praeparate vobis cibaria quoniam post diem tertium transibitis Iordanem et intrabitis ad possidendam terram quam Dominus Deus vester daturus est vobis
12 Joshua spoke to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, saying,
Rubenitis quoque et Gadditis et dimidiae tribui Manasse ait
13 “Remember the word which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, saying, ‘Yahweh your God gives you rest, and will give you this land.
mementote sermonis quem praecepit vobis Moses famulus Domini dicens Dominus Deus vester dedit vobis requiem et omnem terram
14 Your wives, your little ones, and your livestock shall live in the land which Moses gave you beyond the Jordan; but you shall pass over before your brothers armed, all the mighty men of valor, and shall help them
uxores vestrae et filii ac iumenta manebunt in terra quam tradidit vobis Moses trans Iordanem vos autem transite armati ante fratres vestros omnes fortes manu et pugnate pro eis
15 until Yahweh has given your brothers rest, as he has given you, and they have also possessed the land which Yahweh your God gives them. Then you shall return to the land of your possession and possess it, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave you beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise.’”
donec det requiem Dominus fratribus vestris sicut et vobis dedit et possideant ipsi quoque terram quam Dominus Deus vester daturus est eis et sic revertemini in terram possessionis vestrae et habitabitis in ea quam vobis dedit Moses famulus Domini trans Iordanem contra solis ortum
16 They answered Joshua, saying, “All that you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.
responderuntque ad Iosue atque dixerunt omnia quae praecepisti nobis faciemus et quocumque miseris ibimus
17 Just as we listened to Moses in all things, so will we listen to you. Only may Yahweh your God be with you, as he was with Moses.
sicut oboedivimus in cunctis Mosi ita oboediemus et tibi tantum sit Dominus Deus tecum sicut fuit cum Mose
18 Whoever rebels against your commandment, and doesn’t listen to your words in all that you command him shall himself be put to death. Only be strong and courageous.”
qui contradixerit ori tuo et non oboedierit cunctis sermonibus quos praeceperis ei moriatur tu tantum confortare et viriliter age
