Joshua

Chapter 4

1 And it came to pass,1961 when834 all3605 the people1471 were clean8552 passed over5674 853 Jordan,3383 that the LORD3068 spoke559 unto413 Joshua,3091 saying,559

2 Take3947 you twelve8147 6240 men376 out of4480 the people,5971 out of every tribe a man,376 259 376 259 4480 7626

3 And command6680 ye them, saying,559 Take5375 you hence4480 2088 out of the midst4480 8432 of Jordan,3383 out of the place4480 4673 where the priests'3548 feet7272 stood firm,3559 twelve8147 6240 stones,68 and ye shall carry them over5674 853 with5973 you, and leave5117 them in the lodging place,4411 where834 ye shall lodge3885 this night.3915

4 Then Joshua3091 called7121 413 the twelve8147 6240 men,376 whom834 he had prepared3559 of the children4480 1121 of Israel,3478 out of every tribe a man:376 259 376 259 4480 7626

5 And Joshua3091 said559 unto them, Pass over5674 before6440 the ark727 of the LORD3068 your God430 into413 the midst8432 of Jordan,3383 and take ye up7311 every man376 of you a259 stone68 upon5921 his shoulder,7926 according unto the number4557 of the tribes7626 of the children1121 of Israel: 3478

6 That4616 this2063 may be1961 a sign226 among7130 you, that when3588 your children1121 ask7592 their fathers in time to come,4279 saying,559 What4100 mean ye by these428 stones?68

7 Then ye shall answer559 them, That834 the waters4325 of Jordan3383 were cut off3772 before4480 6440 the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD;3068 when it passed over5674 Jordan,3383 the waters4325 of Jordan3383 were cut off:3772 and these428 stones68 shall be1961 for a memorial2146 unto the children1121 of Israel3478 forever.5704 5769

8 And the children1121 of Israel3478 did6213 so3651 as834 Joshua3091 commanded,6680 and took up5375 twelve8147 6240 stones68 out of the midst4480 8432 of Jordan,3383 as834 the LORD3068 spoke1696 unto413 Joshua,3091 according to the number4557 of the tribes7626 of the children1121 of Israel,3478 and carried them over5674 with5973 them unto413 the place where they lodged,4411 and laid them down5117 there.8033

9 And Joshua3091 set up6965 twelve8147 6240 stones68 in the midst8432 of Jordan,3383 in the place8478 where the feet7272 of the priests3548 which bore5375 the ark727 of the covenant1285 stood:4673 and they are1961 there8033 unto5704 this2088 day.3117

10 For the priests3548 which bore5375 the ark727 stood5975 in the midst8432 of Jordan,3383 until5704 every thing3605 1697 was finished8552 that834 the LORD3068 commanded6680 853 Joshua3091 to speak1696 unto413 the people,5971 according to all3605 that834 Moses4872 commanded6680 853 Joshua:3091 and the people5971 hasted4116 and passed over.5674

11 And it came to pass,1961 when834 all3605 the people5971 were clean8552 passed over,5674 that the ark727 of the LORD3068 passed over,5674 and the priests,3548 in the presence6440 of the people.5971

12 And the children1121 of Reuben,7205 and the children1121 of Gad,1410 and half2677 the tribe7626 of Manasseh,4519 passed over5674 armed2571 before6440 the children1121 of Israel,3478 as834 Moses4872 spoke1696 unto413 them:

13 About forty705 thousand505 prepared2502 for war6635 passed over5674 before6440 the LORD3068 unto battle,4421 to413 the plains6160 of Jericho.3405

14 On that1931 day3117 the LORD3068 magnified1431 853 Joshua3091 in the sight5869 of all3605 Israel;3478 and they feared3372 him, as834 they feared3372 853 Moses,4872 all3605 the days3117 of his life.2416

15 And the LORD3068 spoke559 unto413 Joshua,3091 saying,559

16 Command6680 853 the priests3548 that bear5375 the ark727 of the testimony,5715 that they come up5927 out of4480 Jordan.3383

17 Joshua3091 therefore commanded6680 853 the priests,3548 saying,559 Come ye up5927 out of4480 Jordan.3383

18 And it came to pass,1961 when the priests3548 that bore5375 the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD3068 were come up5927 out of the midst4480 8432 of Jordan,3383 and the soles3709 of the priests'3548 feet7272 were lifted up5423 unto413 the dry land,2724 that the waters4325 of Jordan3383 returned7725 unto their place,4725 and flowed1980 over5921 all3605 his banks,1415 as8543 they did before.8032

19 And the people5971 came up5927 out of4480 Jordan3383 on the tenth6218 day of the first7223 month,2320 and encamped2583 in Gilgal,1537 in the east4217 border7097 of Jericho.3405

20 And those428 twelve8147 6240 stones,68 which834 they took3947 out of4480 Jordan,3383 did Joshua3091 pitch6965 in Gilgal.1537

21 And he spoke559 unto413 the children1121 of Israel,3478 saying,559 When834 your children1121 shall ask7592 853 their fathers1 in time to come,4279 saying,559 What4100 mean these428 stones?68

22 Then ye shall let853 your children1121 know,3045 saying,559 Israel3478 came over5674 853 this2088 Jordan3383 on dry land.3004

23 For834 the LORD3068 your God430 dried up3001 853 the waters4325 of Jordan3383 from before4480 6440 you, until5704 ye were passed over,5674 as834 the LORD3068 your God430 did6213 to the Red5488 sea,3220 which834 he dried up3001 from before4480 6440 us, until5704 we were gone over: 5674

24 That4616 all3605 the people5971 of the earth776 might know3045 853 the hand3027 of the LORD,3068 that3588 it1931 is mighty:2389 that4616 ye might fear3372 853 the LORD3068 your God430 forever.3605 3117

第4章

1 民旣悉濟、耶和華諭約書亞曰、

2 宜簡以色列族各支派中十有二人、

3 使於約但河中、祭司駐足之所、取石十二、攜之過河、置於夕間欲宿之處、

4 約書亞於以色列族、各支派中備十有二人、召之曰、

5 當行於爾上帝耶和華法匱前、至約但河中、各以肩荷石、循以色列支派之數。

6 此可爲徵於爾中、越至後日、倘爾予孫詰爾曰、斯石何意、

7 必曰、昔耶和華法匱、濟約但時、於其前河水絕流、此石爲誌、使以色列族永憶勿忘。

8 以色列族、在約但河中、取石十二、循以色列族支派之數、攜石至宿所、置之、遵耶和華所諭約書亞之命。

9 約書亞又置石十二於約但河中、舁法匱之祭司足所履之處、迄今尚存。

10 於是民速濟河、舁法匱之祭司立於約但河中、迨耶和華所諭約書亞之命、摩西所傳約書亞之言、盡遵行之、以畢其事。

11 民旣盡濟、舁耶和華法匱之祭司亦濟斯河、爲民目擊。

12 流便伽得二支派、及馬拿西支派之半、整其行伍、於同儕前濟河、從摩西所言、

13 約四萬人預備以戰、濟河至耶利哥平原、循耶和華命。〇

14 當日耶和華使約書亞爲尊於以色列族前、民盡寅畏、至於華生、如畏摩西然。

15 耶和華諭約書亞曰、

16 使舁法匱之祭司、自約但河中出。

17 約書亞命祭司曰、自河中出。

18 舁法匱之祭司、旣出自約但、足履陸地時、河水復至、盈溢於岸、與前無異。

19 正月十日、民自約但河出、建營於耶利哥東之吉甲。

20 約書亞以河中所取十二石、立於斯地、

21 告以色列族曰、越至後世、爾之子孫、倘詰爾曰、立石何意。

22 爾當告之曰、昔以色列族濟約但如行陸地。

23 蓋爾之上帝耶和華、使河水涸於民前、待民悉濟、如使紅海水涸、待民悉濟然。

24 於是天下億兆知耶和華之巨能、爾當畏爾上帝耶和華、歷世靡曁。

1 民旣悉濟、耶和華諭約書亞曰、

2 Take3947 you twelve8147 6240 men376 out of4480 the people,5971 out of every tribe a man,376 259 376 259 4480 7626

2 宜簡以色列族各支派中十有二人、

3 And command6680 ye them, saying,559 Take5375 you hence4480 2088 out of the midst4480 8432 of Jordan,3383 out of the place4480 4673 where the priests'3548 feet7272 stood firm,3559 twelve8147 6240 stones,68 and ye shall carry them over5674 853 with5973 you, and leave5117 them in the lodging place,4411 where834 ye shall lodge3885 this night.3915

3 使於約但河中、祭司駐足之所、取石十二、攜之過河、置於夕間欲宿之處、

4 Then Joshua3091 called7121 413 the twelve8147 6240 men,376 whom834 he had prepared3559 of the children4480 1121 of Israel,3478 out of every tribe a man:376 259 376 259 4480 7626

4 約書亞於以色列族、各支派中備十有二人、召之曰、

5 And Joshua3091 said559 unto them, Pass over5674 before6440 the ark727 of the LORD3068 your God430 into413 the midst8432 of Jordan,3383 and take ye up7311 every man376 of you a259 stone68 upon5921 his shoulder,7926 according unto the number4557 of the tribes7626 of the children1121 of Israel: 3478

5 當行於爾上帝耶和華法匱前、至約但河中、各以肩荷石、循以色列支派之數。

6 That4616 this2063 may be1961 a sign226 among7130 you, that when3588 your children1121 ask7592 their fathers in time to come,4279 saying,559 What4100 mean ye by these428 stones?68

6 此可爲徵於爾中、越至後日、倘爾予孫詰爾曰、斯石何意、

7 Then ye shall answer559 them, That834 the waters4325 of Jordan3383 were cut off3772 before4480 6440 the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD;3068 when it passed over5674 Jordan,3383 the waters4325 of Jordan3383 were cut off:3772 and these428 stones68 shall be1961 for a memorial2146 unto the children1121 of Israel3478 forever.5704 5769

7 必曰、昔耶和華法匱、濟約但時、於其前河水絕流、此石爲誌、使以色列族永憶勿忘。

8 And the children1121 of Israel3478 did6213 so3651 as834 Joshua3091 commanded,6680 and took up5375 twelve8147 6240 stones68 out of the midst4480 8432 of Jordan,3383 as834 the LORD3068 spoke1696 unto413 Joshua,3091 according to the number4557 of the tribes7626 of the children1121 of Israel,3478 and carried them over5674 with5973 them unto413 the place where they lodged,4411 and laid them down5117 there.8033

8 以色列族、在約但河中、取石十二、循以色列族支派之數、攜石至宿所、置之、遵耶和華所諭約書亞之命。

9 And Joshua3091 set up6965 twelve8147 6240 stones68 in the midst8432 of Jordan,3383 in the place8478 where the feet7272 of the priests3548 which bore5375 the ark727 of the covenant1285 stood:4673 and they are1961 there8033 unto5704 this2088 day.3117

9 約書亞又置石十二於約但河中、舁法匱之祭司足所履之處、迄今尚存。

10 For the priests3548 which bore5375 the ark727 stood5975 in the midst8432 of Jordan,3383 until5704 every thing3605 1697 was finished8552 that834 the LORD3068 commanded6680 853 Joshua3091 to speak1696 unto413 the people,5971 according to all3605 that834 Moses4872 commanded6680 853 Joshua:3091 and the people5971 hasted4116 and passed over.5674

10 於是民速濟河、舁法匱之祭司立於約但河中、迨耶和華所諭約書亞之命、摩西所傳約書亞之言、盡遵行之、以畢其事。

11 And it came to pass,1961 when834 all3605 the people5971 were clean8552 passed over,5674 that the ark727 of the LORD3068 passed over,5674 and the priests,3548 in the presence6440 of the people.5971

11 民旣盡濟、舁耶和華法匱之祭司亦濟斯河、爲民目擊。

12 And the children1121 of Reuben,7205 and the children1121 of Gad,1410 and half2677 the tribe7626 of Manasseh,4519 passed over5674 armed2571 before6440 the children1121 of Israel,3478 as834 Moses4872 spoke1696 unto413 them:

12 流便伽得二支派、及馬拿西支派之半、整其行伍、於同儕前濟河、從摩西所言、

13 About forty705 thousand505 prepared2502 for war6635 passed over5674 before6440 the LORD3068 unto battle,4421 to413 the plains6160 of Jericho.3405

13 約四萬人預備以戰、濟河至耶利哥平原、循耶和華命。〇

14 On that1931 day3117 the LORD3068 magnified1431 853 Joshua3091 in the sight5869 of all3605 Israel;3478 and they feared3372 him, as834 they feared3372 853 Moses,4872 all3605 the days3117 of his life.2416

14 當日耶和華使約書亞爲尊於以色列族前、民盡寅畏、至於華生、如畏摩西然。

15 And the LORD3068 spoke559 unto413 Joshua,3091 saying,559

15 耶和華諭約書亞曰、

16 Command6680 853 the priests3548 that bear5375 the ark727 of the testimony,5715 that they come up5927 out of4480 Jordan.3383

16 使舁法匱之祭司、自約但河中出。

17 Joshua3091 therefore commanded6680 853 the priests,3548 saying,559 Come ye up5927 out of4480 Jordan.3383

17 約書亞命祭司曰、自河中出。

18 And it came to pass,1961 when the priests3548 that bore5375 the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD3068 were come up5927 out of the midst4480 8432 of Jordan,3383 and the soles3709 of the priests'3548 feet7272 were lifted up5423 unto413 the dry land,2724 that the waters4325 of Jordan3383 returned7725 unto their place,4725 and flowed1980 over5921 all3605 his banks,1415 as8543 they did before.8032

18 舁法匱之祭司、旣出自約但、足履陸地時、河水復至、盈溢於岸、與前無異。

19 And the people5971 came up5927 out of4480 Jordan3383 on the tenth6218 day of the first7223 month,2320 and encamped2583 in Gilgal,1537 in the east4217 border7097 of Jericho.3405

19 正月十日、民自約但河出、建營於耶利哥東之吉甲。

20 And those428 twelve8147 6240 stones,68 which834 they took3947 out of4480 Jordan,3383 did Joshua3091 pitch6965 in Gilgal.1537

20 約書亞以河中所取十二石、立於斯地、

21 And he spoke559 unto413 the children1121 of Israel,3478 saying,559 When834 your children1121 shall ask7592 853 their fathers1 in time to come,4279 saying,559 What4100 mean these428 stones?68

22 Then ye shall let853 your children1121 know,3045 saying,559 Israel3478 came over5674 853 this2088 Jordan3383 on dry land.3004

22 爾當告之曰、昔以色列族濟約但如行陸地。

23 For834 the LORD3068 your God430 dried up3001 853 the waters4325 of Jordan3383 from before4480 6440 you, until5704 ye were passed over,5674 as834 the LORD3068 your God430 did6213 to the Red5488 sea,3220 which834 he dried up3001 from before4480 6440 us, until5704 we were gone over: 5674

23 蓋爾之上帝耶和華、使河水涸於民前、待民悉濟、如使紅海水涸、待民悉濟然。
