约书亚记-Joshua第1章

乐园李老师

书1:1  耶和华的仆人摩西死了以后，耶和华晓谕摩西的帮手，嫩的儿子约书亚，说，
After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord , the Lord said to Joshua son of Nun, Moses' aide:

书1:2  我的仆人摩西死了。现在你要起来，和众百姓过这约旦河，往我所要赐给以色列人的地去。
'Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan River into the land I am about to give to them-to the Israelites.

书1:3  凡你们脚掌所踏之地，我都照着我所应许摩西的话赐给你们了。
I will give you every place where you set your foot, as I promised Moses.

书1:4  从旷野，和这利巴嫩，直到伯拉大河。赫人的全地。又到大海日落之处。都要作你们的境界。
Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates-all the Hittite country-to the Great Sea on the west.

书1:5  你平生的日子，必无一人能在你面前站立得住。我怎样与摩西同在，也必照样与你同在。我必不撇下你，也不丢弃你。
No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.

书1:6  你当刚强壮胆。因为你必使这百姓承受那地为业，就是我向他们列祖起誓应许赐给他们的地。
'Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their forefathers to give them.

书1:7  只要刚强，大大壮胆，谨守遵行我仆人摩西所吩咐你的一切律法，不可偏离左右，使你无论往哪里去，都可以顺利。
Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.

书1:8  这律法书不可离开你的口，总要昼夜思想，好使你谨守遵行这书上所写的一切话。如此，你的道路就可以亨通，凡事顺利。
Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.
书1:9  我岂没有吩咐你吗？你当刚强壮胆。不要惧怕，也不要惊惶。因为你无论往哪里去，耶和华你的神必与你同在。
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.'

书1:10 于是，约书亚吩咐百姓的官长说，
So Joshua ordered the officers of the people:

书1:11 你们要走遍营中，吩咐百姓说，当预备食物。因为三日之内你们要过这约旦河，进去得耶和华你们神赐你们为业之地。
'Go through the camp and tell the people, 'Get your supplies ready. Three days from now you will cross the Jordan here to go in and take possession of the land the Lord your God is giving you for your own.' '

书1:12 约书亚对流便人，迦得人，和玛拿西半支派的人说，
But to the Reubenites, the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh, Joshua said,

书1:13 你们要追念耶和华的仆人摩西所吩咐你们的话说，耶和华你们的神使你们得享平安，也必将这地赐给你们。
'Remember the command that Moses the servant of the Lord gave you: 'The Lord your God is giving you rest and has granted you this land.'

书1:14 你们的妻子，孩子，和牲畜都可以留在约旦河东，摩西所给你们的地。但你们中间一切大能的勇士都要带着兵器在你们的弟兄前面过去，帮助他们，
Your wives, your children and your livestock may stay in the land that Moses gave you east of the Jordan, but all your fighting men, fully armed, must cross over ahead of your brothers. You are to help your brothers

书1:15 等到耶和华使你们的弟兄象你们一样得享平安，并且得着耶和华你们神所赐他们为业之地，那时才可以回你们所得之地，承受为业，就是耶和华的仆人摩西在约旦河东，向日出之地所给你们的。
until the Lord gives them rest, as he has done for you, and until they too have taken possession of the land that the Lord your God is giving them. After that, you may go back and occupy your own land, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you east of the Jordan toward the sunrise.'

书1:16 他们回答约书亚说，你所吩咐我们行的，我们都必行。你所差遣我们去的，我们都必去。
Then they answered Joshua, 'Whatever you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.

书1:17 我们从前在一切事上怎样听从摩西，现在也必照样听从你。惟愿耶和华你的神与你同在，像与摩西同在一样。
Just as we fully obeyed Moses, so we will obey you. Only may the Lord your God be with you as he was with Moses.

书1:18 无论什么人违背你的命令，不听从你所吩咐他的一切话，就必治死他。你只要刚强壮胆。
Whoever rebels against your word and does not obey your words, whatever you may command them, will be put to death. Only be strong and courageous!'
