Joshua 3
1 Toang na ke len tok ah, Joshua ac mwet Israel nukewa elos tuyak ac fahsr liki acn elos muta we in acn Shittim, ac som nu Infacl Jordan. Elos tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos we ac tupan pacl in som lalos.
And Josue rose before daylight, and removed the camp: and they departed from Setim, and came to the Jordan, he, and all the children of Israel, and they abode there for three days.
2 Len tolu toko, mwet kol lalos elos fahsr sasla lohm nuknuk nukewa
After which, the heralds went through the midst of the camp,
3 ac fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Pacl se na kowos liye mwet tol su mwet Levi srukak Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD ac fahsr, na kowos lumwani lohm nuknuk suwos ac fahsr tokolos.
And began to proclaim: When you shall see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, and the priests of the race of Levi carrying it, rise you up also, and follow them as they go before:
4 Acn inge sasu nu suwos, ke ma inge elos ac fah akkalemye inkanek lowos an. Tusruktu kowos in tia fahsr apkuran nu ke Tuptup in Wuleang. Kowos in fahsr ke lusen tafun mael toko.”
And let there be between you and the ark the space of two thousand cubits: that you may see it afar off, and know which way you must go: for you have not gone this way before: and take care you come not near the ark.
5 Joshua el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Kowos in akmutalye kowos mweyen lutu LEUM GOD El fah oru ku sakirik lal inmasrlowos.”
And Josue said to the people: Be ye sanctified: for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you.
6 Ac Joshua el fahk nu sin mwet tol, “Srukak Tuptup in Wuleang ac us fahsr meet liki mwet uh.” Na elos oru oana el fahk.
And he said to the priests: Take up the ark of the covenant, and go before the people. And they obeyed his commands, and took it up and walked before them.
7 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Ke mwet Israel nukewa elos liye ma nga fah oru misenge, elos ac fah mutawauk in akfulatye kom ac akilen lah nga muta yurum oana nga tuh muta yorol Moses.
And the Lord said to Josue: This day will I begin to exalt thee before Israel: that they may know that as I was with Moses, so I am with thee also.
8 Kom in fahk nu sin mwet tol su us Tuptup in Wuleang tuh ke elos sun infacl soko ah, elos in tui wekof uh.”
And do thou command the priests that carry the ark of the covenant, and say to them: When you shall have entered into part of the water of the Jordan, stand in it.
9 Na Joshua el fahk nu sin mwet Israel, “Fahsru ac lohng kas lun LEUM GOD lowos.
And Josue said to the children of Israel: Come hither and hear the word of the Lord your God.
10 Ke kowos ac fahla, God El ac fah lusak mwet Canaan, mwet Hit, mwet Hiv, mwet Periz, mwet Girgas, mwet Amor ac mwet Jebus. Na kowos fah etu lah God moul El muta inmasrlowos
And again he said: By this you shall know that the Lord the living God is in the midst of you, and that he shall destroy before your sight the Chanaanite and the Hethite, the Hevite and the Pherezite, the Gergesite also and the Jebusite, and the Amorrhite.
11 ke Tuptup in Wuleang lun God lun faclu nufon ac fah fahsr sasla Infacl Jordan meet liki kowos.
Behold the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth shall go before you into the Jordan.
12 Ke ma inge kowos sulela mwet singoul luo, kais sie ke sruf singoul luo lun Israel.
Prepare ye twelve men of the tribes of Israel, one of every tribe.
13 Ke pacl se nien mwet tol su us Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD lun faclu nufon fah pusralla Infacl Jordan, na kof uh ac tui insacn, ac kof ma tuku lucng me uh ac fah lapak oana fulatan soko eol.”
And when the priests, that carry the ark of the Lord the God of the whole earth, shall set the soles of their feet in the waters of the Jordan, the waters that are beneath shall run down and go off: and those that come from above, shall stand together upon a heap.
14 Ouinge ke mwet uh lumwani lohm nuknuk selos ac akola in fahsr sasla Infacl Jordan, mwet tol elos fahsr meet ac us Tuptup in Wuleang.
So the people went out of their tents, to pass over the Jordan: and the priests that carried the ark of the covenant. went on before them.
15 Ke pacl in kosrani uh, pacl in sronot lun Infacl Jordan. Na ke pacl se nien mwet su us Tuptup in Wuleang sun kof uh,
And as soon as they came into the Jordan, and their feet were dipped in part of the water, (now the Jordan, it being harvest time, had filled the banks of its channel, )
16 kof ma tuku lucng ah me tui ac lapak oana fulatan soko eol, nwakla acn uh nwe sun siti srisrik Adam su oan sisken siti Zarethan. Na kof ma soror nu ten nu in Meoa Misa lisr na pwaye, pwanang mwet uh elos ku in fahsr sasla infacl soko ah apkuranyang nu Jericho.
The waters that came down from above stood in one place, and swelling up like a mountain, were seen afar off from the city that is called Adom, to the place of Sarthan: but those that were beneath, ran down into the sea of the wilderness (which now is called the Dead Sea) until they wholly failed.
17 Ac mwet tol su us Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD elos tu in acn pao infulwen infacl ah nwe ke na mwet nukewa sroak liki infacl ah nu finmes uh.
And the people marched over against Jericho: and the priests that carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, stood girded upon the dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, and all the people passed over through the channel that was dried up.
