Joshua 24
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
Καὶ συνήγαγεν Ἰησοῦς πάσας φυλὰς Ἰσρὴλ εἰς Σηλώ, καὶ συνεκάλεσεν τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς γραμματεῖς αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς δικαστὰς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτοὺς ἀπέναντι τοῦ θεοῦ.
Then Joshua assembled all the tribes of Israel at Shechem. He summoned the elders, leaders, judges, and officers of Israel, and they presented themselves before God.
καὶ εἶπεν Ἰησοῦς πρὸς πάντα τὸν λαόν τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ Πέραν τοῦ ποταμοῦ κατῴκησαν οἱ πατέρες ὑμῶν τὸ ἀπ’ Θάρα ὁ πατὴρ Ἀβραὰμ καὶ ὁ πατὴρ Ναχώρ· καὶ ἐλάτρευσαν ἑτέροις.
And Joshua said to all the people, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Long ago your fathers, including Terah the father of Abraham and Nahor, lived beyond the Euphrates (note: Hebrew the River; also in verses 3, 14, and 15) and worshiped other gods.
καὶ ἔλαβον τὸν πατέρα ὑμῶν τὸν Ἀβραὰμ ἐκ τοῦ πέραν τοῦ ποταμοῦ, καὶ ὡδήγησα αὐτὸν ἐν πάση τῇ γῆ· καὶ ἐπλήθυνα αὐτοῦ σπέρμα καὶ ἔδωκα αὐτῷ τὸν Ἰσαὰκ,
But I took your father Abraham from beyond the Euphrates and led him through all the land of Canaan, and I multiplied his descendants. I gave him Isaac,
καὶ τῷ Ἰσαὰκ τὸν Ἰακὼβ κοὶ τὸν Ἠσαύ· ἔδωκα τῷ Ἠσαὺ τὸ ὄρος τὸ Σηεὶρ κληρονομῆσαι αὐτῷ. καὶ Ἰακὼβ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ κατέβησαν εἰς Αἴγυπτον, καὶ ἐγένοντο ἐκεῖ εἰς ἔθνος μέγα καὶ πολύ καὶ κραταιόν· καὶ ἐκάκωσαν αὐτοὺς οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι.
and to Isaac I gave Jacob and Esau. I gave Esau Mount Seir to possess, but Jacob and his sons went down to Egypt.
καὶ ἐπάταξαν τὴν Αἴγυπτον ἐν οἷς ἐποίησαν αὐτοῖς. καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐξήγαγεν
Then I sent Moses and Aaron, and I afflicted the Egyptians by what I did there, and afterward I brought you out.
τοὺς παέρας ἡμῶν ἐξ Αἰγυπτίων, καὶ καὶ εἰσήλθατε εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν τὴν ἐρυθρόν· καὶ κατεδίωξαν οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι ὀπίσω τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν ἐν ἅρμασιν καὶ ἐν ἵπποις εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν τὴν ἐρυθράν.
When I brought your fathers out of Egypt and you reached the Red Sea (note: Or the Sea of Reeds), the Egyptians pursued them with chariots and horsemen as far as the Red Sea.
καὶ ἀνεβοήσαμεν πρὸς κύριον· καὶ νεφέλην καὶ γνόφον ἀνὰ μέσον ἡμῶν καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν Αἰγυπτίων· καὶ ἐπήγαγεν ἐπ’ αὐτοὺς τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ ἐκάλυψεν αὐτούς. καὶ εἴδοσαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ ὑμῶν ὅσα ἐποίησεν κύριος ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ· καὶ ἦτε ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ἡμέρας πλείους.
So your fathers cried out to the LORD, and He put darkness between you and the Egyptians, over whom He brought the sea and engulfed them. Your very eyes saw what I did to the Egyptians. Then you lived in the wilderness for a long time.
καὶ ἤγαγεν ἡμᾶς εἰς γῆν Ἀμορραίων τῶν κατοικούντων πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, κα παραδέδωκεν αὐτοὺς κύριος εἰς τὰς Χεῖρας ἡμῶν· καὶ κατεκληρονομήσατε τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐξωλεθρεύσατε αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν.
Later, I brought you to the land of the Amorites who lived beyond the Jordan. They fought against you, but I delivered them into your hand, that you should possess their land when I destroyed them before you.
καὶ ἀβέστη Βαλὰκ ὁ τοῦ Σεπφὼρ βασιλεὺς Μωὰβ καὶ παρετάξατο τῷ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἀποστείλας ἐκάλεσεν τὸν Βαλαὰμ ἀράσασθαι ἡμῖν.
Then Balak son of Zippor, the king of Moab, set out to fight against Israel. He sent for Balaam son of Beor to curse you,
καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησεν Κύριος ὁ θεός σου ἀπολέσοι σε· κα εὐλογίαν εὐλόγησεν ἡμᾶς, καὶ ἐξείλατο ἡμᾶς ἐκ χειρῶν αὐτῶν, κα αὐτούς.
but I would not listen to Balaam. So he blessed you again and again, and I delivered you from his hand.
καὶ διέβητε τὸν Ἰορδάνην, καὶ παρεγενήθητε καὶ ἐπολέμησαν πρὸς ἡμᾶς οἱ κατοικοῦντες Ἰερειχώ, ὁ Ἀμορραῖος καὶ ὁ Χαναναῖος καὶ ὁ Φερεζαῖος κα ὁ Εὑαῖος καὶ ὁ Ἰεβουσαῖος καὶ ὁ Χετταῖος καὶ ὁ Γεργεσαῖος· καὶ παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς κύριος εἰς τἀς χεῖρας ἡμῶν.
After this, you crossed the Jordan and came to Jericho. The people of Jericho fought against you, as did the Amorites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites, and Jebusites, and I delivered them into your hand.
καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν προτέραν ἡμῶν τὴν σφηκίαν, καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ προσώπου ήμῶν. δώδεκα βασιλεῖς τῶν Ἀμορραίων, οὐκ ἐν τῇ ῥομφαίᾳ σου οὐδὲ ἐν τῷ τόξῳ σου.
I sent the hornet ahead of you, and it drove out the two Amorite kings before you, but not by your own sword or bow.
καὶ ἔδωκεν ὑμῖν γῆν ἐφ’ ἢν οὐκ ἐκοπιάσατε ἐπ’ αὐτῆς καὶ πόλεις ἃς οὐκ ᾠκοδομήκατε, καὶ κατῳκίσθητε ἐν αὐταῖς· καὶ ἀμπελῶνας καὶ ἐλαιῶνας οὑς οὐκ ἐφυτεύσατε ὑμεῖς ἔδεσθε.
So I gave you a land on which you did not toil and cities that you did not build, and now you live in them and eat from vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant.’
καὶ νῦν φοβήθητε κύριον καὶ λατρεύσατε αὐτῷ ἐν εὐθύτητι καὶ ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ, καὶ περιέλεσθε τοὺς θεοὺς τοὺς ἀλλοτρίους οἷς ἐλάτρευσαν οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ ποταμοῦ καὶ ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ, καὶ λατρεύετε Κυρίῳ.
Now, therefore, fear the LORD and serve Him in sincerity and truth; cast aside the gods your fathers served beyond the Euphrates and in Egypt, and serve the LORD.
εἰ δὲ μὴ ἀρέσκει ὑμῖν λατρεύειν κυρίῳ, ἐκλέὑμῖν ὑμῖν ἑαυτοῖς σήμερον τίνι λατρεύσητε, εἴτε τοῖς θεοῖς τῶν πατέρων ὑμῶν τοῖς ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ ποταμοῦ, εἴτε τοῖς θεοῖς τῶν Ἀμορραίων ἐν οἷς ὑμεῖς κατοικεῖτε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς αὐτῶν· ἐγὼ δὲ καὶ ἡ οἰκία μου λατρεύσομεν Κυρίῳ, ὅτι ἅγιός ἐστιν.
But if it is unpleasing in your sight to serve the LORD, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living. As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD!”
καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ λαὸς εἶπεν Μὴ γένοιτο ἥμιν καταλιπεῖν κύριον, ὥστε λατρεύειν θεοῖς ἑτέροις.
The people replied, “Far be it from us to forsake the LORD to serve other gods!
Κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν αὐτὸς θεός ἐστιν· αὐτὸς ἀνήγαγεν ἡμᾶς καὶ τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν ἐξ Αἰγύπτου, καὶ διεφύλαξεν ἡμᾶς ἐν πάσῃ τῇ ὁδῷ ἧ ἐπορεύθημεν ἐν αὔη, καὶ ἐν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν οὓς παρήλθομεν δι’ αὐτῶν·
For the LORD our God brought us and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery, and performed these great signs before our eyes. He also protected us throughout our journey and among all the nations through which we traveled.
καὶ ἐξέβαλεν κύριος τὸν Ἀμορραῖον κοὶ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη τὰ κατοικοῦντα τὴν γῆν ἀπὸ προσώπου ἡμῶν. ἀλλὰ καὶ ἡμεῖς λατρεύσομεν κυρίῳ, οὗτος γὰρ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐστιν.
And the LORD drove out before us all the nations, including the Amorites who lived in the land. We too will serve the LORD, because He is our God!”
καὶ εἶπεν Ἰησοῦς πρὸς τὸν λαόν Οὐ μὴ δύνησθε λατρεύειν Κυρίῳ· ὅτι θεὸς ἅγιός ἐστιν, καὶ ζηλώσας οὗτος οὐκ ἀνήσει ὑμῶν τὰ ἁμαρτήματα καὶ τὰ ἀνομήματα ὑμῶν.
But Joshua said to the people, “You are not able to serve the LORD, for He is a holy God; He is a jealous God; He will not forgive your rebellion or your sins.
ἡνίκα ἐὰν ἐνκαταλίπητε Τύριον καὶ λατρεύσητε θεοῖς ἑτέροις, καὶ ἐπελθὼν κακώσει ὑμᾶς καὶ ἐξαναλώσει ὑμᾶς ἀνθ’ ὧν εὖ ἐποίησεν ὑμᾶς.
If you forsake the LORD and serve foreign gods, He will turn and bring disaster on you and consume you, even after He has been good to you.”
καὶ εἶπεν ὁ λαὸς πρὸς Ἰησοῦν Ούχί, ἀλλὰ Κυρίῳ λατρεύσομεν.
“No!” replied the people. “We will serve the LORD!”
καὶ εἶπεν Ἰησοῦς πρὸς τὸν λαόν Μάρτυρες ὑμεῖς καθ’ ὑμῶν, ὅτι ὑμεῖς ἐξελέξασθε Κυρίῳ λατρεύειν αὐτῷ.
Then Joshua told them, “You are witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen to serve the LORD.” “We are witnesses!” they said.
καὶ νῦν περιέλεσθε τοὺς θεοὺς τούς ἀλλοτρίους τοὺς ἐν ὑμῖν, καὶ εὐθύνατε τὴν καρδίαν ὑμῶν πρὸς κύριον θεὸν Ἰσραήλ.
“Now, therefore,” he said, “get rid of the foreign gods among you and incline your hearts to the LORD, the God of Israel.”
καὶ εἶπεν ὁ πρὸς πρὸς Ἰησοῦν κυρίῳ λατρεύσομεν, καὶ τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ ἀκουσόμεθα.
So the people said to Joshua, “We will serve the LORD our God and obey His voice.”
καὶ καὶ διέθετο Ἰησοῦς διαθήκην πρὸς τὸν λαὸν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ νόμον καὶ κρίσιν ἐν Σηλὼ ἐνώπιον τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ.
On that day Joshua made a covenant for the people, and there at Shechem he established for them a statute and ordinance.
Καὶ ἔγραψεν τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα εἰς βιβλίον, νόμον τοῦ θεοῦ· καὶ ἔλαβεν λίθον μέγαν καἰ ἔστησεν αὐτὸν Ἰησοῦς ὑπὸ τὴν τερέμινθον ἀπέναντι Κυρίου.
Joshua recorded these things in the Book of the Law of God. Then he took a large stone and set it up there under the oak (note: Or terebinth) that was near the sanctuary of the LORD.
καὶ εἶπεν Ἰησοῦς πρὸς τὸν λαόν Ἴδου ὁ λίθος οὗτος ἔσται ἐν ὑμῖν εἰς μαρτύριον, ὅτι αὐτὸς ἀκήκοεν πάντα τὰ λεχθέντα αὐτῷ ὑπὸ κυρίου ὅ τι ἐλάλησεν πρὸς ἡμᾶς σήμερον· καὶ ἱστοὶ οὗτος ἐν ὑμῖν εἰς μαρτύριον ἐπ’ ἐσχάτων τῶν ἡμερῶν, ἡνίκα ἐὰν ψεύσησθε κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ μου.
And Joshua said to all the people, “You see this stone. It will be a witness against us, for it has heard all the words the LORD has spoken to us, and it will be a witness against you if you ever deny your God.”
καὶ ἀπέστειλεν Ἰησοῦς τὸν λαόν, καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν ἕκαστος εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ.
Then Joshua sent the people away, each to his own inheritance.
καὶ ἐγένετο μετ’ ἐκεῖνα καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ἰησοῦς υἱὸς Ναυὴ δοῦλος κυρίου ἑκατὸν δέκα ἐτῶν.
Some time later, Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died at the age of 110.
καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτόν πρός τοῖς ὁρίοις τοῦ κλήρου αὐτοῦ ἐν Θαμναθασαχαρὰ ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ Ἐφράιμ, ἀπὸ βορρᾶ τοῦ ὄρους τοῦ Γαλαάδ·
And they buried him in the land of his inheritance, at Timnath-serah (note: Timnath-serah is also known as Timnath-heres; see Judges 2:9.) in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
καὶ καὶ ἐλάτρευσεν Ἰσραὴλ τῷ κυρίῳ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας Ἰησοῦ καὶ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τῶν πρεσβυτέρων, ὅσοι ἐφείλκυσαν τὸν χρόνον μετὰ Ἰησοῦ καὶ ὅσοι ἴδοσαν πάντα τὰ ἔργα Κυρίου ὅσα ἐποίησεν τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
Israel had served the LORD throughout the days of Joshua and of the elders who outlived him and who had experienced all the works that the LORD had done for Israel.
καὶ τὰ ὀστᾶ Ἰωσὴφ ἀνήγαγον οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ ἐξ Αἰγύπτου καὶ κατώρυξαν ἐν Σικίμοις, ἐν τῇ μερίδι τοῦ ἀγροῦ οὗ ἐκτήσατο Ἰακὼβ παρὰ τῶν Ἀμορραίων τῶν κατοικούντων ἐν Σικιμοις ἀμνάδων ἑκατόν.
And the bones of Joseph, which the Israelites had brought up out of Egypt, were buried at Shechem in the plot of land that Jacob had purchased from the sons of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred pieces of silver (note: Hebrew a hundred kesitahs; the value or weight of the kesitah is no longer known.). So it became an inheritance for Joseph’s descendants.
Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ ταῦτα κοὶ Ἐλεαζὰρ υἱὸς Ἀαρὼν ὁ ἀρχιερεὺς ἐτελεύτησεν καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν Γαβαὰρ Φεινεὲς τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ, ἢν ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ ὄερι τῷ Ἐφράιμ.
Eleazar son of Aaron also died, and they buried him at Gibeah, which had been given to his son Phinehas in the hill country of Ephraim.
