3 Na ka maranga wawe a Hohua i te ata, a ka turia atu e ratou i Hitimi, ka tae ki Horano, a ia me nga tama katoa a Iharaira, a moe ana ki reira i te mea kiano i whiti noa.
2 Na, i te paunga o nga ra e toru, ka haere nga rangatira na waenganui o te puni;
3 A ka whakahau i te iwi, ka mea, E kite koutou i te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua, i nga tohunga hoki, i nga Riwaiti e amo ana, hei kona ka whakatika atu i o koutou nohoanga, ka haere i muri.
4 Otiia kia whai takiwa ki waenganui o koutou, o taua mea; kia rua mano whatianga, he mea whanganga marie; kaua e whakatata ki taua mea, kia mohio ai koutou ki te huarahi e haere ai koutou: kahore nei hoki koutou i haere i tena huarahi i mua ake ne i.
5 A i mea ano a Hohua ki te iwi, Whakatapu i a koutou: ko apopo hoki a Ihowa mahi ai i nga mea whakamiharo ki waenganui i a koutou.
6 I mea ano a Hohua ki nga tohunga, Hapainga ake te aaka o te kawenata, haere i mua i te iwi. A hapainga ana e ratou te aaka o te kawenata, a haere ana i mua i te iwi.
7 A ka mea a Ihowa ki a Hohua, Ko aianei ahau timata ai te whakanui i a koe ki te aroaro o Iharaira katoa, kia mohio ai ratou, i a mohi ahau, ka pera ano ahau ki a koe.
8 A mau e whakahau ki nga tohunga e amo ana i te aaka o te kawenata, e mea, E tae koutou ki te tapa o te wai o Horano, me ata tu i roto i Horano.
9 Na ka mea a Hohua ki nga tama a Iharaira, Haere mai, whakarongo ki nga kupu a Ihowa, a to koutou Atua.
10 Na ka mea a Hohua, Ma konei koutou ka mohio ai kei roto i a koutou te Atua ora, a ka peia rawatia e ia i to koutou aroaro nga Kanaani, nga Hiti, nga Hiwi, nga Perihi, nga Kirikahi, nga Amori, me nga Iepuhi.
11 Nana, ko te aaka o te kawenata a te Ariki o te ao katoa te haere nei i mua i a koutou ki roto o Horano.
12 Na motuhia ki a koutou kia tekau ma rua tangata o nga iwi o Iharaira, kia takikotahi te tangata o te iwi.
13 A, ina tatu nga kapu o nga waewae o nga tohunga e amo ana i te aaka a Ihowa, a te Ariki o te ao katoa, ki nga wai o Horano, ka motuhia nga wai o Horano, ara nga wai e rere mai ana i runga; a ka tu ake, kotahi ano puranga.
14 A, no te haerenga atu o te iwi i o ratou teneti ki te whakawhiti i Horano, me nga tohunga hoki e amo ana i te aaka o te kawenata i mua i te iwi;
15 A, i te taenga o nga kaiamo i te aaka ki Horano, i te tukunga atu hoki o nga waewae o nga tohunga e amo ana i te aaka ki te taha o te wai; e ngawha ana hoki a Horano ki runga i ona pareparenga katoa i nga ra katoa o te kotinga;
16 Ko te tino turanga o nga wai e heke iho ana i runga, ara ake ana kotahi ano puranga, i tawhiti noa atu i te pa i Arama, i te taha o Haretana: a, ko nga wai e rere iho ana ki te moana o te mania, ki te Moana Tote, mimiti ana, motu ke atu ana: a w hiti ana te iwi i te ritenga atu o Heriko.
17 A tu marie ana nga tohunga i amo nei i te aaka o te kawenata a Ihowa i te wahi maroke i waenganui o Horano, me te haere ano a Iharaira katoa ki tawahi na te wahi maroke, a poto noa te iwi katoa te whiti i Horano.

Crossing the Jordan
3 Early in the morning Joshua and all the Israelites set out from Shittim(A) and went to the Jordan,(B) where they camped before crossing over. 2 After three days(C) the officers(D) went throughout the camp,(E) 3 giving orders to the people: “When you see the ark of the covenant(F) of the Lord your God, and the Levitical(G) priests(H) carrying it, you are to move out from your positions and follow it. 4 Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way before. But keep a distance of about two thousand cubits[a](I) between you and the ark; do not go near it.”
5 Joshua told the people, “Consecrate yourselves,(J) for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things(K) among you.”
6 Joshua said to the priests, “Take up the ark of the covenant and pass on ahead of the people.” So they took it up and went ahead of them.
7 And the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I will begin to exalt you(L) in the eyes of all Israel, so they may know that I am with you as I was with Moses.(M) 8 Tell the priests(N) who carry the ark of the covenant: ‘When you reach the edge of the Jordan’s waters, go and stand in the river.’”
9 Joshua said to the Israelites, “Come here and listen to the words of the Lord your God. 10 This is how you will know that the living God(O) is among you(P) and that he will certainly drive out before you the Canaanites, Hittites,(Q) Hivites, Perizzites,(R) Girgashites, Amorites and Jebusites.(S) 11 See, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth(T) will go into the Jordan ahead of you.(U) 12 Now then, choose twelve men(V) from the tribes of Israel, one from each tribe. 13 And as soon as the priests who carry the ark of the Lord—the Lord of all the earth(W)—set foot in the Jordan, its waters flowing downstream(X) will be cut off(Y) and stand up in a heap.(Z)”
14 So when the people broke camp to cross the Jordan, the priests carrying the ark of the covenant(AA) went ahead(AB) of them. 15 Now the Jordan(AC) is at flood stage(AD) all during harvest.(AE) Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water’s edge, 16 the water from upstream stopped flowing.(AF) It piled up in a heap(AG) a great distance away, at a town called Adam in the vicinity of Zarethan,(AH) while the water flowing down(AI) to the Sea of the Arabah(AJ) (that is, the Dead Sea(AK)) was completely cut off.(AL) So the people crossed over opposite Jericho.(AM) 17 The priests(AN) who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord stopped in the middle of the Jordan and stood on dry ground,(AO) while all Israel passed by until the whole nation had completed the crossing on dry ground.(AP)
