8 “‘Mede mo beduu Amorifo a wɔte Yordan agya* no asaase so, na wɔne mo koe.+ Na mede wɔn hyɛɛ mo nsa sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a mobɛfa wɔn asaase, na mesɛee wɔn wɔ mo anim.+
9 Afei Sipor ba Balak a ɔyɛ Moab hene no sɔree, na ɔne Israelfo bɛkoe. Na ɔsoma kɔfrɛɛ Beor ba Baalam sɛ ɔmmɛdome mo.+
10 Nanso mantie Baalam.+ Enti ohyiraa mo toatoaa so,+ na migyee mo fii ne nsam.+
11 “‘Afei mutwaa Yordan+ beduu Yeriko,+ na Yerikofo ne Amorifo ne Perisifo ne Kaananfo ne Hitifo ne Girgasifo ne Hiwifo ne Yebusifo akannifo* ne mo koe. Nanso mede wɔn hyɛɛ mo nsa.+
12 Na memaa mo ho hu* dii mo anim, na ɛpam wɔn fii mo anim,+ sɛnea meyɛɛ Amorifo ahemfo baanu no. Mo sekan nnim, mo agyan nnim.+
13 Na memaa mo asaase a moammrɛ ho, na memaa mo nkurow tenaa mu a ɛnyɛ mo na mokyekyee.+ Bobe mfuw ne ngodua mfuw a mudidi so yi nso, ɛnyɛ mo na moyɛe.’*+
14 “Enti afei munsuro Yehowa, na momfa abrabɔ a edi mu* ne nokwaredi nsom no.+ Na munyiyi anyame a mo agyanom som wɔn wɔ Asubɔnten no* agya ne Egypt no ngu,+ na monsom Yehowa.
15 Sɛ nso mompɛ sɛ mosom Yehowa a, ɛnde ɛnnɛ mompaw nea mobɛsom no;+ sɛ anyame a mo agyanom som wɔn wɔ Asubɔnten no* agya no oo,+ sɛ Amorifo a mote wɔn asaase so no anyame oo,+ mompaw nea mobɛsom no. Na me ne me fifo de, yɛbɛsom Yehowa.”
16 Ɛnna ɔman no kae sɛ: “Ɛmpare yɛn sɛ yebegyaw Yehowa hɔ na yɛakɔsom anyame foforo.
17 Yehowa yɛn Nyankopɔn na oyii yɛne yɛn agyanom fii Egypt asaase so,+ fii nkoafi.+ Ɔno na ɔyɛɛ anwonwade akɛse yi wɔ yɛn anim,+ na ɔbɔɔ yɛn ho ban ɔkwan a yɛfaa so nyinaa mu, ne aman a yɛfaa wɔn mu no nyinaa mu.+
18 Yehowa pam aman a na wɔtete asaase no so nyinaa; Amorifo ka ho. Enti yɛn nso yɛbɛsom Yehowa, efisɛ ɔno ne yɛn Nyankopɔn.”
19 Na Yosua ka kyerɛɛ ɔman no sɛ: “Morentumi nsom Yehowa, efisɛ ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn kronkron.+ Na ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn a ɔmpɛ sɛ wɔsom obiara ka ne ho.+ Sɛ moto mmara* na moyɛ bɔne a, ɔremfa nkyɛ mo.+
20 Sɛ mugyaw Yehowa hɔ na mokɔsom ananafo anyame a, ɔno nso bɛdan aba mo so na wahyew mo ase, ɛwom sɛ kan no ɔyɛɛ mo papa.”+
21 Ɛnna nkurɔfo no ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ: “Daabi, Yehowa ara na yɛbɛsom no!”+
22 Afei Yosua ka kyerɛɛ ɔman no sɛ: “Mo ara mudi adanse sɛ mo ankasa na moapaw sɛ mobɛsom Yehowa.”+ Na wɔkae sɛ: “Yɛyɛ adansefo.”
23 “Ɛnde munyiyi ananafo anyame a ɛwɔ mo mu no ngu, na monnan mo koma mmra Israel Nyankopɔn Yehowa nkyɛn.”
24 Na ɔman no ka kyerɛɛ Yosua sɛ: “Yɛbɛsom Yehowa yɛn Nyankopɔn, na yebetie ne nne!”
25 Enti Yosua ne ɔman no yɛɛ apam saa da no, na ɔmaa wɔn ahyɛde ne mmara wɔ Sekem.
26 Afei Yosua kyerɛw nsɛm yi wɔ Onyankopɔn Mmara nhoma no mu,+ na ɔde ɔbo kɛse bi+ sii hɔ wɔ dua kɛse a esi Yehowa kronkronbea ho no ase.
27 Na Yosua toaa so ka kyerɛɛ ɔman no nyinaa sɛ: “Monhwɛ! Ɔbo yi bɛyɛ yɛn dansefo,+ efisɛ ate nea Yehowa aka akyerɛ yɛn nyinaa, na ɛbɛyɛ ɔdansefo na moampo mo Nyankopɔn.”
28 Afei Yosua gyaa ɔman no kwan maa obiara kɔɔ n’agyapade so.+
29 Nsɛm yi akyi no, Nun ba Yosua, Yehowa akoa no wui bere a na wadi mfe 110.+
30 Na wosiee no wɔ asaase a ɛyɛ n’agyapade so wɔ Timnat-Sera.+ Ɛwɔ Efraim mmepɔw mu wɔ Gaase Bepɔw atifi fam.
