1Then Joshua called the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh,
1 Waato din gaa Yasuwa na Ruben da Gad kundey, da Manasse kunda jara ce.
2And said unto them, Ye have kept all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, and have obeyed my voice in all that I commanded you:
2 A ne i se: «Hay kulu kaŋ Rabbi tamo Musa n'araŋ lordi nd'a, araŋ n'a kulu gaay ka haggoy d'a. Araŋ na hanga jeeri ka maa ay mo se, hay kulu ra kaŋ ay n'araŋ lordi nd'a.
3Ye have not left your brethren these many days unto this day, but have kept the charge of the commandment of the LORD your God.
3 Araŋ mana araŋ nya-izey naŋ jirbi boobey wo kulu ra hala ka kaa hunkuna. Amma araŋ na Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo lordo d'a ciiti sanney gana.
4And now the LORD your God hath given rest unto your brethren, as he promised them: therefore now return ye, and get you unto your tents, and unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the other side Jordan.
4 Sohõ binde Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo n'araŋ nya-izey mo no fulanzamay, danga mate kaŋ a ci i se. Kala sohõ araŋ ma bare ka ye fu. Wa koy araŋ mayray nangey do, wo kaŋ Rabbi tamo Musa n'araŋ no Urdun isa daaranta.
5But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the LORD charged you, to love the LORD your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.
5 Kala day, araŋ ma laakal ye gumo ka haggoy da lordo da asariya kaŋ yaŋ Rabbi tamo Musa n'araŋ lordi nd'ey din. Araŋ ma ba Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo, araŋ m'a fondey kulu gana, araŋ ma haggoy d'a lordey mo. Araŋ ma naagu a gaa, araŋ ma may a se d'araŋ biney kulu d'araŋ fundey kulu mo.»
6So Joshua blessed them, and sent them away: and they went unto their tents.
6 Yasuwa binde n'i albarkandi k'i sallama. I ye fu.
7Now to the one half of the tribe of Manasseh Moses had given possession in Bashan: but unto the other half thereof gave Joshua among their brethren on this side Jordan westward. And when Joshua sent them away also unto their tents, then he blessed them,
7 Musa jin ka Manasse izey jara no tubu Basan ra, amma jara fa, Yasuwa fay ka no i se i nya-izey game ra, Urdun daaranta, wayna kaŋay. Koyne, waato kaŋ Yasuwa n'i sallama i ma ye fu, a n'i albarkandi.
8And he spake unto them, saying, Return with much riches unto your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment: divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.
8 A salaŋ i se ka ne: «Wa ye fu da duure boobo, da alman boobo, da wura, da nzarfu, da guuru-ciray, da guuru-bi, da bankaaray boobo mo. W'araŋ ibarey arzaka fay-fay araŋ d'araŋ nya-izey game ra.»
9And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go unto the country of Gilead, to the land of their possession, whereof they were possessed, according to the word of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
9 Yaadin gaa, Ruben izey da Gad izey da Manasse kunda jara bare ka ye. I fay da Israyla izey ka tun Silo kaŋ go Kanaana laabo ra. I bare zama ngey ma daŋandi ka koy Jileyad, kaŋ ga ti i mayray laabo kaŋ i n'i no nd'a tubu. I du a Rabbi lordo boŋ Musa me ra.
10And when they came unto the borders of Jordan, that are in the land of Canaan, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh built there an altar by Jordan, a great altar to see to.
10 Saaya kaŋ i kaa ka to Urdun meyo gaa, kura kaŋ go Kanaana laabo ra haray, Ruben izey da Gad izey, da Manasse kunda jara na sargay feema cina noodin Urdun meyo gaa. A alhaalo mo, feema bambata no.
11And the children of Israel heard say, Behold, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh have built an altar over against the land of Canaan, in the borders of Jordan, at the passage of the children of Israel.
11 Kala Israyla izey du baaru. I ne: «Ruben izey da Gad izey da Manasse kunda jara, ngey neeya ka feema cina Kanaana laabo sukuto gaa, Urdun haray. A go noodin kura kaŋ ga ti Israyla izey wane ra.»
12And when the children of Israel heard of it, the whole congregation of the children of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh, to go up to war against them.
12 Waato kaŋ Israyla izey maa baaro din, i jama kulu margu Silo ra. I kaa zama ngey ma konda wongu i gaa.
13And the children of Israel sent unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest,
13 Israyla izey na Alfa Fineyas, Eliyezar izo donton Ruben da Gad izey, da Manasse izey kunda jara do, ngey kaŋ yaŋ go Jileyad laabo ra.
14And with him ten princes, of each chief house a prince throughout all the tribes of Israel; and each one was an head of the house of their fathers among the thousands of Israel.
14 A koy, nga nda dabarikooni way nga banda, dabarikooni fo Israyla dumo kaayey windi fo kulu lasaabo boŋ. I afo kulu kaayey windey jine boro yaŋ no Israyla zambar-zambarey ra.
15And they came unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half tribe of Manasseh, unto the land of Gilead, and they spake with them, saying,
15 I kaa Ruben da Gad izey, da Manasse kunda jara do, noodin Jileyad laabo ra. I salaŋ i se ka ne:
16Thus saith the whole congregation of the LORD, What trespass is this that ye have committed against the God of Israel, to turn away this day from following the LORD, in that ye have builded you an altar, that ye might rebel this day against the LORD?
16 «Haŋ kaŋ Rabbi jama kulu ci neeya: Day, amaana ŋwaari woofo dumi no araŋ te Israyla Irikoyo se wo, hala araŋ bare hunkuna ka fay da Rabbi ganayaŋ? Araŋ na sargay feema cina araŋ boŋ se. Mate no, araŋ ga murte Rabbi gaa hunkuna no?
17Is the iniquity of Peor too little for us, from which we are not cleansed until this day, although there was a plague in the congregation of the LORD,
17 Nga, Peyor zunubo mana wasa iri se, hay fo kaŋ iri mana baa hin k'iri boŋ hanandi a gaa ka ban hala hõ, baa day kaŋ balaaw kaŋ Rabbi jama boŋ?
18But that ye must turn away this day from following the LORD? and it will be, seeing ye rebel to day against the LORD, that to morrow he will be wroth with the whole congregation of Israel.
18 Kal araŋ mo, araŋ go ga bare ka fay da Rabbi ganayaŋ koyne hunkuna? A ga ciya mo, za kaŋ araŋ murte Rabbi gaa hunkuna, suba a ga futu Israyla jama kulu se.
19Notwithstanding, if the land of your possession be unclean, then pass ye over unto the land of the possession of the LORD, wherein the LORD's tabernacle dwelleth, and take possession among us: but rebel not against the LORD, nor rebel against us, in building you an altar beside the altar of the LORD our God.
19 Amma, d'araŋ mayray laabo si hanan, yaadin gaa araŋ ma daŋandi ka koy Rabbi mayray laabo ra, nango kaŋ Rabbi nangora go da goray. Araŋ ma du mayray hari noodin iri game ra. Amma araŋ ma si murte Rabbi gaa. Araŋ ma si murte iri mo gaa, ka feema fo cina araŋ boŋ se kaŋ waana Rabbi iri Irikoyo feema.
20Did not Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass in the accursed thing, and wrath fell on all the congregation of Israel? and that man perished not alone in his iniquity.
20 Wala manti Zera ize Akan na amaana ŋwaari te laaliyaŋ haro din ciine gaa bo? Irikoy futa mo kaa ka zumbu Israyla jama kulu boŋ. Bora din, manti nga hinne no ka halaci nga zunubey sabbay se bo.»
21Then the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh answered, and said unto the heads of the thousands of Israel,
21 Gaa no Ruben da Gad izey, da Manasse kunda jara tu ka salaŋ Israyla kundey arkusey se. I ne:
22The LORD God of gods, the LORD God of gods, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know; if it be in rebellion, or if in transgression against the LORD, (save us not this day,)
22 «Rabbi, koyey Irikoyo; Rabbi koyey Irikoyo, nga wo bay! Israyla mo ma anniya ka bay. Hala day murteyaŋ ra no, wala mo da Rabbi asariya taamuyaŋ ra no iri na woodin te, araŋ ma si iri faaba hunkuna.
23That we have built us an altar to turn from following the LORD, or if to offer thereon burnt offering or meat offering, or if to offer peace offerings thereon, let the LORD himself require it;
23 D'iri na feema din cina zama iri ma banda bare Rabbi gaa ka fay d'a, wala zama i ma sargay kaŋ i ga ton yaŋ te a boŋ, wala mo iri ma hamni sargay, wala i ma saabuyaŋ sargayyaŋ te a boŋ, kala Rabbi bumbo m'iri hã d'a.
24And if we have not rather done it for fear of this thing, saying, In time to come your children might speak unto our children, saying, What have ye to do with the LORD God of Israel?
24 Abada! Amma iri goono ga ne, hambara zamaney kaŋ ga kaa ra araŋ izey ga salaŋ iri izey se ka ne: ‹Araŋ baa fo nda Rabbi, Israyla Irikoyo.
25For the LORD hath made Jordan a border between us and you, ye children of Reuben and children of Gad; ye have no part in the LORD: so shall your children make our children cease from fearing the LORD.
25 Zama Rabbi na Urdun isa daŋ iri game ra, a ma te hirri. Ya araŋ Ruben izey da Gad izey, araŋ sinda baa kulu Rabbi do.› Da yaadin te, araŋ izey ga iri izey daŋ i ma fay da Rabbi humburkumay nooya.
26Therefore we said, Let us now prepare to build us an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice:
26 Woodin se no iri ne: sohõ naŋ iri ma soola, iri ma feema cina. Day, manti sargay kaŋ i ga ton tonyaŋ se bo, manti mo sargayey kaŋ yaŋ i ga dumbu teeyaŋ se.
27But that it may be a witness between us, and you, and our generations after us, that we might do the service of the LORD before him with our burnt offerings, and with our sacrifices, and with our peace offerings; that your children may not say to our children in time to come, Ye have no part in the LORD.
27 Amma zama a ma ciya seeda in d'araŋ game ra, d'iri hayyaŋey game ra iri banda. A ga cabe kaŋ iri ga may Rabbi se a jine ka kande iri sargay kaŋ i ga ton yaŋ, iri sargayey kaŋ i ga dumbu, da saabuyaŋ sargayey mo. Zama araŋ izey ma si salaŋ iri izey se jirbey kaŋ ga kaa ra ne ka koy jine ka ne: ‹Araŋ sinda baa kulu Rabbi do.›
28Therefore said we, that it shall be, when they should so say to us or to our generations in time to come, that we may say again, Behold the pattern of the altar of the LORD, which our fathers made, not for burnt offerings, nor for sacrifices; but it is a witness between us and you.
28 Woodin se no iri ne, a ga ciya, da han fo araŋ izey ga woodin ci iri se, wala d'i n'a ci iri hayyaŋey se zamaney kaŋ ga kaa ra, iri mo ga ne i se: ‹Wa guna ka di, Rabbi feema himandi neeya kaŋ iri kaayey cina ka naŋ. I man'a te zama i ma sargayey kaŋ i ga ton yaŋ ton a boŋ se bo, manti mo sargayey kaŋ i ga dumbu se, amma seeda no in d'araŋ game ra.›
29God forbid that we should rebel against the LORD, and turn this day from following the LORD, to build an altar for burnt offerings, for meat offerings, or for sacrifices, beside the altar of the LORD our God that is before his tabernacle.
29 Irikoy m'iri waa d'iri ma murte Rabbi gaa hal iri ma banda bare ka fay da Rabbi ganayaŋ hunkuna! Iri ma feema cina sargay kaŋ i ga ton, wala hamni sargay, wala sargay kaŋ i ga dumbu se, kaŋ ga waana Rabbi iri Irikoyo feema kaŋ go a nangora jine, a ma mooru iri!»
30And when Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the congregation and heads of the thousands of Israel which were with him, heard the words that the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the children of Manasseh spake, it pleased them.
30 Waato kaŋ Alfa Fineyas, da jama koyey, danga Israyla zambarey arkusey, kaŋ yaŋ go a banda maa sanney kaŋ yaŋ Ruben da Gad, da Manasse izey ci, a kaan i se.
31And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said unto the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the children of Manasseh, This day we perceive that the LORD is among us, because ye have not committed this trespass against the LORD: now ye have delivered the children of Israel out of the hand of the LORD.
31 Eliyezar izo, Alfa Fineyas ne Ruben da Gad da Manasse izey se: «Hunkuna iri bay kaŋ Rabbi go iri bindo ra. Zama a ciya, araŋ mana amaana ŋwaari woodin te Rabbi jine. Sohõ kay, araŋ na Israyla izey faaba Rabbi kambe ra nooya.»
32And Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, returned from the children of Reuben, and from the children of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, unto the land of Canaan, to the children of Israel, and brought them word again.
32 Alfa Fineyas, Eliyezar izo, nga nda koyey bare ka ye. I fay da Ruben da Gad izey. I fun Jileyad laabo ra ka ye ka koy Kanaana laabo ra. I kaa Israyla izey do haray ka kande baaru.
33And the thing pleased the children of Israel; and the children of Israel blessed God, and did not intend to go up against them in battle, to destroy the land wherein the children of Reuben and Gad dwelt.
33 Woodin maayaŋ kaan Israyla izey se mo, hala Israyla izey na Irikoy sifa. I mana ye ka wongu sanni te koyne, way, ngey ma laabo kaŋ ra Ruben da Gad izey bara ga goro din leemun.
34And the children of Reuben and the children of Gad called the altar Ed: for it shall be a witness between us that the LORD is God.
34 Waato din gaa no Ruben da Gad izey na feema din maa daŋ ka ne a se Ed feema (kaŋ a feerijo ga ti Seeda). Zama i ne: «Nga no ga ti seeda iri game ra kaŋ Rabbi no ga ti Irikoy.»
