Iosua 3
1 KU ae la o Iosua i kakahiaka, a hele aku la, mai Sitima aku, a hiki aku la i Ioredane, oia, a me na mamo a pau a Iseraela, a malaila lakou i hoomoana'i mamua o ko lakou hele ana ae i kela kapa.
And Joshua rose up early in the morning, and departed from Sattin; and they came as far as Jordan, and lodged there before they crossed over.
2 Eia hoi kekahi, i ka pau ana o na la ekolu, hele ae la na luna mawaena o ka poe kanaka;
And it came to pass after three days, [that] the scribes went through the camp;
3 Kauoha mai la ia lakou, i mai la, A ike oukou i ka pahuberita a Iehova a ko oukou Akua, a me ka poe kahuna na Levi e amo ana ia mea; alaila oukou e haalele ai i ko oukou wahi, a e hahai maumuli o ia mea.
and they charged the people, saying, When you shall see the ark of the covenant of the Lord our God, and our priests and the Levites bearing it, you shall depart from your places, and you shall go after it.
4 I wahi kaawale hoi mawaena o ia mea a me oukou, i elua tausani kubita paha ka loihi. Mai hookokoke aku, i ike oukou i ke ala a oukou e hele ai; no ka mea, akahi no oukou a hele i keia ala.
But let there be a distance between you and it; you shall stand as much as two thousand cubits [from it]. Do not draw near to it, that you may know the way which you are to go; for you have not gone the way before.
5 Olelo mai la o Iosua i na kanaka, E huikala oukou ia oukou iho; no ka mea, apopo e hana mai no o Iehova i na mea kupanaha iwaena o oukou.
And Joshua said to the people, Sanctify yourselves against to-morrow, for to-morrow the Lord will do wonders among you.
6 Olelo mai la o Iosua i na kahuna, i mai la, E hapai i ka pahuberita, a e hele ae imua o na Kanaka. Hapai ae la lakou i ka pahuberita, hele aku la imua o na kanaka.
And Joshua said to the priests, Take up the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and go before the people: and the priests took up the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and went before the people.
7 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Iosua, I keia la no, e hoomaka au i ka hookiekie ia oe imua o ka Iseraela a pau, i ike lakou i ko'u noho pu ana me oe, e like me a'u i noho pu ai me Mose.
And the Lord said to Joshua, This day do I begin to exalt you before all the children of Israel, that they may know that as I was with Moses, so will I also be with you.
8 E kauoha aku oe i na kahuna, i ka poe halihali i ka pahuberita, e i aku, A hiki oukou ma ka lihiwai o Ioredane, e ku malie oukou maloko o Ioredane.
And now charge the priests that bear the ark of the covenant, saying, As soon as you shall enter on a part of the water of Jordan, then you shall stand in Jordan.
9 Olelo mai la o Iosua i na mamo a Iseraela, E neenee mai oukou, a e hoolohe i na olelo a Iehova a ko oukou Akua.
And Joshua said to the children of Israel, Come hither, and listen to the word of the Lord our God.
10 I mai la o Iosua, Eia ka mea e ike ai oukou i ka noho pu ana o ke Akua ola me oukou, a e oiaio no, e kipaku aku ia mamua o oukou i ka Kanaana, a me ka Heta, a me ka Heva, a me ka Pereza, a me ka Giregasa, a me ka Amora, a me ka Iebusa.
Hereby you shall know that the living God [is] among you, and will utterly destroy from before our face the Chananite, and the Chettite and Pherezite, and the Evite, and the Amorite, and the Gergesite, and the Jebusite.
11 Aia hoi, ke hele ae nei ka pahuberita a ka Haku o ka honua a pau, mamua o oukou iloko o Ioredane.
Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth passes over Jordan.
12 E lawe hoi oukou, no oukou, i umi kanaka a me kumamalua, mailoko mai o na ohana a Iseraela, pakahi ke kanaka i ka ohana hookahi.
Choose for yourselves twelve men of the sons of Israel, one of each tribe.
13 A hiki i ka wa e hoomaha ai maloko o ka wai o Ioredane na kapuwai o ka poe kahuna nana e lawe ka pahu o Iehova, ka Haku o ka honua a pau; alaila, e hookaawaleia na wai o Ioredane, o na wai e kahe ana mailuna mai, a e ku no iluna me he puu la.
And it shall come to pass, when the feet of the priests that bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord of the whole earth rest in the water of Jordan, the water of Jordan [below] shall fail, and the water coming down from above shall stop.
14 Pela io no, i ka wa i hele aku ai na kanaka, mai ko lakou wahi aku i hoomoana'i, e hele i kela kapa o Ioredane, a hapai ka poe kahuna i ka pahuberita imua o na kanaka.
And the people removed from their tents to cross over Jordan, and the priests bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord before the people.
15 A hiki ka poe i halihali i ka pahu i Ioredane, a komo na wawae o na kahuna, ka poe i halihali i ka pahu ma ka lihiwai, (no ka mea, i ka manawa e oo ai ka ai, ua halana o Ioredane maluna o kona kapa a pau, )
And when the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord entered upon Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord were dipped in part of the water of Jordan; (now Jordan overflowed all its banks about the time of wheat harvest: )
16 Alaila, ku malie no na wai i kahe maluna mai, a pii aku la, a lilo i puu loihi loa a hiki wale aku i ke kulanakauhale i Adama, e pili ana i Zaretana: a o ka wai i kahe ma ke kai o ka papu, oia hoi ka moanakai, moku iho la ia a maloo; a hele aku la na kanaka i kela kapa, ma ke alo o Ieriko.
then the waters that came down from above stopped; there stood one solid heap very far off, as far as the region of Kariathiarim, and the lower part came down to the sea of Araba, the salt sea, till it completely failed; and the people stood opposite Jericho.
17 Ku malie iho la na kahuna, ka poe lawe i ka pahuberita o Iehova, ma kahi maloo, mawaena o Ioredane, a hele ka Iseraela a pau ma ka aina maloo, a pau loa ia Iahuikanaka i ka hala i kela kapa o Ioredane.
And the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood on dry land in the midst of Jordan; and all the children of Israel went through on dry land, until all the people had completely gone over Jordan.
