¹And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over Jordan, that the LORD spake unto Joshua, saying,

¹Nak ac xeßnumeß chixjunileb laj Israel jun pacßal li nimaß Jordán, li Kâcuaß quixye re laj Josué:

²Take you twelve men out of the people, out of every tribe a man,

²—Siqßueb ru cablaju chi cuînk. Junjûnk chi cuînk tâsicß saß xyânkeb li junjûnk xtêpaleb laj Israel.

³And command ye them, saying, Take you hence out of the midst of Jordan, out of the place where the priests' feet stood firm, twelve stones, and ye shall carry them over with you, and leave them in the lodging place, where ye shall lodge this night.

³Tâye reheb nak teßxxoc junjûnkak xpequeb saß xyi li nimaß bar xakxôqueb cuiß laj tij ut teßxcßam. Ut teßxtus saß li naßajej bar texhilânk cuiß chiru li kßojyîn aßin, chan.

⁴Then Joshua called the twelve men, whom he had prepared of the children of Israel, out of every tribe a man:

⁴Ut laj Josué quixbokeb li cablaju chi cuînk li quixsiqßueb ru saß xyânkeb li ralal xcßajol laj Israel. Junjûnk quixsicß ru saß li jûnk têp.

⁵And Joshua said unto them, Pass over before the ark of the LORD your God into the midst of Jordan, and take you up every man of you a stone upon his shoulder, according unto the number of the tribes of the children of Israel:

⁵Ut quixye reheb: —Numenkex chi ubej chiru lix Lokßlaj Câx li Kâcuaß, li cuan saß xyi li nimaß. Chêjunjûnkal têsicß jun li pec ut têcßam saß xbên êtel ut texnumekß jun pacßal li nimaß. Li cablaju chi pec, aßan retalil li cablaju têp chi tenamit.

⁶That this may be a sign among you, that when your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean ye by these stones?

⁶Li pec aßin tâcßanjelak ke chokß retalil li cßaßru quixbânu li Kâcuaß. Mokon eb lê ralal êcßajol teßxpatzß êre, “¿Cßaßru aj e li pec aßin?” chaßkeb.

⁷Then ye shall answer them, That the waters of Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD; when it passed over Jordan, the waters of Jordan were cut off: and these stones shall be for a memorial unto the children of Israel for ever.

⁷Ut lâex texchakßok ut têye reheb, “Li pec aßin, aßan retalil nak quixakli li nimaß Jordán ut incßaß chic quibêc nak yôqueb chixnumsinquil jun pacßal li nimaß li Lokßlaj Câx li xocxo cuiß lix contrato li Dios. Eb li pec aßin, aßan retalil chiruheb laj Israel re nak julticak reheb chi junelic li cßaßru quixbânu li Dios,” chan laj Josué.

⁸And the children of Israel did so as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones out of the midst of Jordan, as the LORD spake unto Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel, and carried them over with them unto the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.

⁸Ut eb li cablaju chi cuînk queßxbânu joß quixye laj Josué. Queßxxoc li cablaju chi pec saß xyi li nimaß Jordán joß quiyeheß re laj Josué xban li Dios. Aßan retalil li cablaju têp chi tenamit re Israel. Queßxcßam li pec ut queßxchßutub saß li naßajej bar queßhilan cuiß.

⁹And Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests which bare the ark of the covenant stood: and they are there unto this day.

⁹Ut quixtus ajcuiß cablaju li pec laj Josué saß xyi li nimaß bar queßxakli cuiß laj tij li yôqueb chi cßamoc re li Lokßlaj Câx. Ut eb li pec aßan toj cuanqueb ajcuiß aran chalen anakcuan.

¹⁰For the priests which bare the ark stood in the midst of Jordan, until everything was finished that the LORD commanded Joshua to speak unto the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua: and the people hasted and passed over.

¹⁰Ut eb li tenamit queßxbânu li cßaßru quixye laj Josué. Eb laj tij li yôqueb chi cßamoc re li Lokßlaj Câx queßcana chi xakxo saß xyi li nimaß Jordán toj queßxbânu li joß qßuial quixye li Kâcuaß re laj Josué, joß quiyeheß re junxil xban laj Moisés. Ut eb li tenamit queßnumeß chi junpât jun pacßal li nimaß.

¹¹And it came to pass, when all the people were clean passed over, that the ark of the LORD passed over, and the priests, in the presence of the people.

¹¹Nak ac xeßnumeß chixjunileb li tenamit, queßnumeß ajcuiß laj tij li yôqueb chi cßamoc re lix Lokßlaj Câx li Kâcuaß ut queßcôeb chi ubej.

¹²And the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh, passed over armed before the children of Israel, as Moses spake unto them:

¹²Ut eb li ralal xcßajol laj Rubén ut eb li ralal xcßajol laj Gad joßqueb ajcuiß yijach li ralal xcßajol laj Manasés ac cauresinbileb re pletic nak queßnumeß. Aßaneb li xbên li queßnumeß joß quiyeheß reheb xban laj Moisés.

¹³About forty thousand prepared for war passed over before the LORD unto battle, to the plains of Jericho.

¹³Caßcßâl mil na chi cuînk li ac cauresinbileb re teßxic chi pletic. Queßcôeb saß li ru takßa Jericó. Ut li Kâcuaß cuan riqßuineb.

¹⁴On that day the LORD magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they feared Moses, all the days of his life.

¹⁴Saß li cutan aßan laj Josué quiqßueheß xlokßal xban li Dios re nak eb laj Israel teßx-oxlokßi joß najtil tâcuânk saß xyânkeb, joß nak queßx-oxlokßi laj Moisés junxil.

¹⁵And the LORD spake unto Joshua, saying,

¹⁵Ut li Kâcuaß quixye re laj Josué:

¹⁶Command the priests that bear the ark of the testimony, that they come up out of Jordan.

¹⁶—Ye reheb laj tij li yôqueb chi cßamoc re li Lokßlaj Câx nak teßêlk chak saß li nimaß Jordán, chan.

¹⁷Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying, Come ye up out of Jordan.

¹⁷Laj Josué quixye reheb laj tij nak teßêlk saß li nimaß.

¹⁸And it came to pass, when the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD were come up out of the midst of Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up unto the dry land, that the waters of Jordan returned unto their place, and flowed over all his banks, as they did before.

¹⁸Ut eb laj tij li yôqueb chi cßamoc re li Lokßlaj Câx queßel saß xyi li nimaß ut queßcôeb chire li nimaß. Nak ac xeßel saß li nimaß, qui-oc cuißchic chi bêc li haß chi cau rok ut quixcßul cuißchic rib ut yô chi butßûnc.

¹⁹And the people came up out of Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and encamped in Gilgal, in the east border of Jericho.

¹⁹Eb laj Israel queßnumeß saß li nimaß Jordán saß li lajêb xbe li xbên po re li chihab aßan. Ut queßxqßue lix muhebâleb saß li naßajej Gilgal saß xbehil li tenamit Jericó.

²⁰And those twelve stones, which they took out of Jordan, did Joshua pitch in Gilgal.

²⁰Saß ajcuiß li naßajej aßan quixtus li cablaju chi pec laj Josué li queßrisi saß li nimaß Jordán.

²¹And he spake unto the children of Israel, saying, When your children shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean these stones?

²¹Ut quixye reheb laj Israel: —Mokon eb lê ralal êcßajol teßxpatzß êre: “¿Cßaßru aj e li pec aßin?” chaßkeb.

²²Then ye shall let your children know, saying, Israel came over this Jordan on dry land.

²²Ut lâex têchßolob chiruheb chanru nak eb laj Israel queßnumeß jun pacßal li nimaß Jordán ut chaki li queßnumeß cuiß.

²³For the LORD your God dried up the waters of Jordan from before you, until ye were passed over, as the LORD your God did to the Red sea, which he dried up from before us, until we were gone over:

²³Li Kâcuaß li kaDios quixchakihobresi li nimaß Jordán li joß nimal tonumekß cuiß joß nak quixchakihobresi li Caki Palau li joß nimal conumeß cuiß chak junxil.Quixbânu chi joßcan re nak chixjunileb li cuanqueb saß ruchichßochß teßxqßue retal nak kßaxal nim xcuanquil li Kâcuaß ut re ajcuiß nak lâex junelic têxucua ru li Kâcuaß lê Dios, chan laj Josué.

²⁴That all the people of the earth might know the hand of the LORD, that it is mighty: that ye might fear the LORD your God for ever.

²⁴Quixbânu chi joßcan re nak chixjunileb li cuanqueb saß ruchichßochß teßxqßue retal nak kßaxal nim xcuanquil li Kâcuaß ut re ajcuiß nak lâex junelic têxucua ru li Kâcuaß lê Dios, chan laj Josué.
