< Josue 4 >

1 Idi naballasiw dagiti amin a tattao ti Jordan, kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Josue,
And when the people had completely passed over Jordan, the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying,
2 “Mangpilika iti sangapulo ket dua a lallaki manipud kadagiti tattao, maysa a lalaki iti tunggal tribu.
Take men from the people, one of each tribe,
3 Itedmo daytoy a bilin kadakuada: 'Mangalakayo iti 12 a bato idiay tengnga ti Jordan a pagtaktakderan dagiti padi, ket itugotyo dagitoy ken idissoyo iti lugar a pagdagusanyo ita a rabii.'”
and charge them; and you shall take out of the midst of Jordan twelve fit stones, and having carried them across together with yourselves, place them in your camp, where you shall encamp for the night.
4 Inayaban ngarud ni Josue dagiti sangapulo ket dua a lallaki a pinilina, maysa a lalaki iti tunggal tribu.
And Joshua having called twelve men of distinction among the children of Israel, one of each tribe,
5 Kinunana kadakuada, “Mapankayo idiay tengnga ti Jordan iti sangoanan ti lakasa ni Yahweh a Diosyo, tunggal maysa kadakayo ket mangbaklay iti bato - sangapulo ket dua a bato a naisimpa a kas iti bilang dagiti tribu dagiti tattao ti Israel.
said to them, Advance before me in the presence of the Lord into the midst of Jordan, and each having taken up a stone from thence, let him carry it on his shoulders, according to the number of the twelve tribes of Israel:
6 Agbalinto daytoy a pagilasinanyo iti nagtetengngaanyo ta inton saludsodendakayo dagiti annakyo kadagiti umay nga aldaw, 'Ania ti kayat a sawen dagitoy a bato kadakayo?'
that these may be to you continually for an appointed sign, that when your son asks you in future, saying, What are these stones to us?
7 Ket kunaenyonto kadakuada, 'Nagsina dagiti danum ti Jordan iti sangoanan ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh. Idi nailabas daytoy iti Jordan, nagsina dagiti danum ti Jordan. Isu nga agbalin dagitoy a batbato a pakalaglagipan iti agnanayon kadagiti tattao ti Israel.'”
then you may explain to your son, saying, The river Jordan was dried up from before the ark of the covenant of the Lord of the whole earth, when it passed it: and these stones shall be for a memorial for you for the children of Israel for ever.
8 Inaramid dagiti tattao ti Israel a kas iti imbilin ni Josue, ket nangalada iti sangapulo ket dua a bato manipud idiay tengnga ti Jordan, kas kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Josue, naisimpa dagitoy iti isu met laeng a bilang dagiti tribu dagiti tattao ti Israel. Inawitda dagitoy agingga iti lugar a pagdagusanda iti rabii ket indissoda dagitoy sadiay.
And the children of Israel did so, as the Lord commanded Joshua; and they took up twelve stones out of the midst of Jordan, (as the Lord commanded Joshua, when the children of Israel had completely passed over, ) and carried these stones with them into the camp, and laid them down there.
9 Ket nangisimpa ni Josue iti sangapulo ket dua a bato idiay tengnga ti Jordan, iti lugar a nagtakderan dagiti padi a nangawit iti lakasa ti tulag. Ket daydiay a pakalaglagipan ket adda pay laeng agingga ita nga aldaw.
And Joshua set also other twelve stones in Jordan itself, in the place that was under the feet of the priests that bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord; and there they are to this day.
10 Nagtakder dagiti padi a nangawit iti lakasa idiay tengnga ti Jordan agingga a naipatungpal amin nga imbilin ni Yahweh kenni Josue nga ibagana kadagiti tattao, segun iti amin nga imbilin ni Moises kenni Josue. Dinardaras dagiti tattao a binallasiw ti karayan.
And the priests that bore the ark of the covenant stood in Jordan, until Joshua [had] finished all that the Lord commanded him to report to the people; and the people hasted and passed over.
11 Idi naballasiw dagiti amin a tattao ti karayan, nagballasiw dagiti padi a mangaw-awit it lakasa ni Yahweh iti imatang dagiti tattao.
And it came to pass when all the people had passed over, that the ark of the covenant of the Lord passed over, and the stones before them.
12 Nagballasiw a naurnos a kasla maysa nga armada ti tribu ni Ruben, Gad, ken ti kagudua a tribu ni Manases iti sangoanan dagiti tattao ti Israel, a kas iti imbaga ni Moises kadakuada.
And the sons of Ruben, and the sons of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasse passed over armed before the children of Israel, as Moses commanded them.
13 Agarup 40, 000 a lallaki a sisasagana a makigubat ti nagballasiw iti imatang ni Yahweh, para iti gubat idiay kapatagan ti Jerico.
Forty thousand armed for battle went over before the Lord to war, to the city of Jericho.
14 Iti dayta nga aldaw, inaramid ni Yahweh ni Josue a naindaklan iti panagkita iti amin nga Israel. Rinaemda isuna iti amin nga al-aldawna a kas iti panangraemda kenni Moises.
In that day the Lord magnified Joshua before all the people of Israel; and they feared him, as [they did] Moses, as long as he lived.
15 Ket nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Josue,
And the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying,
16 “Bilinem dagiti padi a mangaw-awit iti lakasa ti tulag a sumang-atda manipud iti Jordan.”
Charge the priests that bear the ark of the covenant of the testimony of the Lord, to go up out of Jordan.
17 Binilin ngarud ni Josue dagiti padi, “Sumang-atkayo manipud iti Jordan.”
And Joshua charged the priests, saying, Go up out of Jordan.
18 Idi nakasang-at manipud iti tengnga ti Jordan dagiti padi a mangaw-awit iti lakasa ni Yahweh, ken naingaton dagiti sakada manipud iti rabaw ti namaga a daga, nagsubli dagiti danum ti Jordan kadagiti ayanda ket nagayus kadagiti ig-igid daytoy, kas iti kasisigud dagitoy kalpasan iti uppat nga aldaw.
And it came to pass when the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord were gone up out of Jordan, and set their feet upon the land, [that] the water of Jordan returned impetuously to its place, and went as before over all its banks.
19 Simmang-at dagiti tattao manipud iti Jordan iti maika-sangapulo nga aldaw iti umuna a bulan. Nagtalinaedda idiay Gilgal, iti dayaen ti Jerico.
And the people went up out of Jordan on the tenth day of the first month; and the children of Israel encamped in Galgala in the region eastward from Jericho.
20 Impatakder ni Josue idiay Gilgal dagiti sangapulo ket dua a bato nga innalada idiay Jordan.
And Joshua set these twelve stones which he took out of Jordan, in Galgala,
21 Kinunana kadagiti tattao ti Israel, “Inton saludsoden dagiti kaputotanyo dagiti ammada kadagiti tiempo nga umay, 'Ania dagitoy a batbato?'
saying, When your sons ask you, saying, What are these stones?
22 Ibagayo kadagiti annakyo, 'Ditoy ti nangballasiwan dagiti tattao iti Jordan iti rabaw ti namaga a daga.'
Tell your sons, that Israel went over this Jordan on dry land,
23 Pinamagaan ni Yahweh a Diosyo dagiti danum ti Jordan para kadakayo, agingga a nakaballasiwkayo, kas iti inaramid ni Yahweh a Diosyo idiay Baybay dagiti Runo, a pinamagaanna agingga a makaballasiwtayo amin,
when the Lord our God had dried up the water of Jordan from before them, until they had passed over; as the Lord our God did to the Red Sea, which the Lord our God dried up from before us, until we passed over.
24 tapno maammoan dagiti tattao ti daga a nabileg ti ima ni Yahweh, ken tapno raemenyonto ni Yahweh a Diosyo iti agnanayon.”
That all the nations of the earth might know, that the power of the Lord is mighty, and that you might worship the Lord our God in every work.
