Adhyāya 3
bihan ko yahoshoo sabere utta, aur sab israaeliyon ko sath le shaitteem se kooch kar yaradan ke kinare aya aur ve par utarane se pahile vaheen ttkai gaae.
2 aur teen din ke bad saradaron ne chhavanee ke beech jakar
3 praja ke logon ko yah agyaa dee, ki jab tum ko apane parameshvar yahova kee vacha ka sandook aur use uttaae huae leveey yajak bhee dekh pade, tab apane sthan se kooch karake usake peechhe peechhe chalana,
4 parantu usake aur tumhare beech men do hajar hath ke attkal antar rahe tum sandook ke nikatt n jana. taaki tum dekh sako, ki kis marga se tum ko chalana haai, kyonki ab tak tum is marga par hokar naheen chale.
5 fir yahoshoo ne praja ke logon se kaha, tum apane ap ko paavitra karo kyonki kal ke din yahova tumhare madhy men ashcharyakarma karega.
6 tab yahoshoo ne yajakon se kaha, vacha ka sandook uttakar praja ke age age chalo. tab ve vacha ka sandook uttakar age age chale.
7 tab yahova ne yahoshoo se kaha, aj ke din se maain sab israaeliyon ke sammukh teree prashansa karana arambh karoonga, jis se ve jan len ki jaaise maain moosa ke sang rahata tha vaaise hee maain tere sang bhee hoon.
8 aur too vacha ke sandook ke uttanevale yajakon ko yah agyaa de, ki jab tum yaradan ke jal ke kinare pahuncho, tab yaradan men khde rahana..
9 tab yahoshoo ne israaeliyon se kaha, ki pas akar apane parameshvar yahova ke vachan suno.
10 aur yahoshoo kahane laga, ki is se tum jan loge ki jeevit ishvar tumhare madhy men haai, aur vah tumhare samahane se ni:sandeh kanaaniyo, hitiayo, hivvaiyo, parijjaiyo, girgaashaiyo, aemoriyo, aur yaboosiyon ko unake desh men se nikal dega.
11 suno, prathvee bhr ke prabhu kee vacha ka sandook tumhare age age yaradan men jane par haai.
12 isaliye ab israael ke gatraen men se barah purooshaen ko chun lo, ve aek aek gotra men se aek puroosh ho.
13 aur jis samay prathvee bhr ke prabhu yahova kee vacha ka sandook uttanevale yajakon ke panv yaradan ke jal men padenge, us samay yaradan ka upar se bahata hua jal thm jaaega, aur ddher hokar tthara rahega.
14 so jab praja ke logon ne apane deron se yaradan par jane ko kooch kiya, aur yajak vacha ka sandook uttaae huae praja ke age age chale,
15 aur sandook ke uttanevale yaradan par pahunche, aur sandook ke uttanevale yajakon ke panv yaradan ke teer ke jal men oob gaae yaradan ka jal to kattnee ke samay ke sab din kadaron ke upar upar baha karata haai,
16 tab jo jal upar kee or se baha ata tha vah bahut door, arthata adam nagar ke pas jo saratan ke nikatt haai rookakar aek ddher ho gaya, aur deevar sa utta raha, aur jo jal araba ka tal, jo khara tal bhee kahalata haai, usakee or baha jata tha, vah pooree reeati se sookh gaya aur praja ke lag yareeho ke samhane par utar gaae.
17 aur yajak yahova kee vacha ka sandook uttaae huae yaradan ke beechon beech pahunchakar sthl par sthiar khde rahe, aur sab israaelee sthl hee sthl par utarate rahe, nidan us saree jati ke log yaradan par ho gaae..
