Ukudliwa Nokwabiwa Kwezwe Elalisele
1 UJoshuwa wayesemdala, eseneminyaka eminingi; uSimakade wathi kuye: “Usukhulile, neminyaka yakho isihambile, liseliningi izwe okusafanele ukuba lidliwe.
2 “Nanti izwe elisasele: zonke izifunda zamaFilisti nalezo zamaGeshuri, 3kusuka eShihori elisempumalanga yeGibhithe kuya enyakatho emngceleni we-Ekhroni, elaziwa ngokuthi yiKhanani; kunababusi abayisihlanu bamaFilisti, abaseGaza, e-Ashidodi, e-Ashikeloni, e-Githi, nase-Ekhroni, nalabo base-Avimu ngasenyakatho, 4lonke izwe lamaKhanani, neMehara yamaSidoni kuye kufike e-Afekhi nasemngceleni wama-Amori, 5nezwe lamaGebhali nalo lonke iLebhanoni kuya empumalanga, kusuka eBhali Gadi phansi kwentaba iHermoni kuya eLebo Hamathi, 6 zonke izakhamuzi zakwelezintaba, kusuka eLebhanoni kuya eMishirefothi Mayimi, nawo wonke amaSidoni. Mina luqobo ngizobaxosha phambi kuka-Israyeli; izwe ngilabele u-Israyeli kuphela, libe yifa lakhe njengalokhu ngikuyalile. 7Ngalokho-ke lehlukanise leli lizwe libe yifa lezizwana eziyisishiyagalolunye nengxenye yesizwana sakwaManase.”
Ukwehlukaniswa Kwezwe Ngasempumalanga YeJordani
8 Enye ingxenye yesizwana sakwaManase, nabakwaRubeni nabakwaGadi basemukela isabelo sefa labo abasinikwa nguMose ngaphesheya kweJordani ngasempumalanga, njengalokhu uMose, inceku kaSimakade, yababela lona: 9kusuka e-Aroweri elingasekupheleni kwesigodi i-Arinoni, nemizi ephakathi nesigodi, nethafa kusuka eMedeba kuya eDibhoni; 10nayo yonke imizi yenkosi uSihoni wama-Amori owayebusa eHeshiboni, kuze kuyofika emngceleni wama-Amoni, 11neGileyadi nesifunda samaGeshuri, namaMahakhathi, nayo yonke intaba iHermoni, nalo lonke iBhashani kuya eSalekha, 12 wonke umbuso ka-Ogi eBhashani, owayebusa e-Ashitharothi nase-Edreyi; nguyena kuphela owayesasele kumaRefa; bonke laba uMose wabanqoba, wabaxosha. 13Nokho u-Israyeli akazange awaxoshe amaGeshuri namaMahakhathi, kodwa amaGeshuri namaMahakhathi ahlala phakathi kwabakwa-Israyeli kuze kube yinamuhla.
14 Yisizwana sakwaLevi kuphela uMose angasabelanga ifa, ngoba iminikelo yomlilo eya kuSimakade uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli yiyo eyifa labo njengoba asho kubo.
UMose Wabela Isizwana SakwaRubeni Ifa
15UMose wanika isizwana sakwaRubeni ifa laso ngokwezindlu zaso.
16 Indawo yabo yayisuka e-Aroweri ngasekupheleni kwesigodi i-Arinoni, nemizi ephakathi nesigodi, nawo wonke amathafa ngaseMedeba, 17neHeshibhoni, nayo yonke imizi yalo esethafeni; iDibhoni, iBhamothi Bhali, iBhethi Bhali Mehoni, 18iJahazi, iKhedemothi, iMefahathi, 19iKiriyathayimi, iSibhima, iZerethi Shahari egqumeni lesigodi, 20iBhethi Pheyori, imithambeka iPhisiga, neBhethi Jeshimothi, 21 okungukuthi yonke imizi esethafeni, nawo wonke umbuso kaShihoni inkosi yama-Amori, owayebusa eHeshibhoni, owanqotshwa nguMose nababusi bakwaMidiyani: u-Evi, uRekhemi, uZuri, uHure noRebha izikhulu zikaShihoni ezazakhe kulelo lizwe. 22 Phakathi kwalabo u-Israyeli ababulala ngenkemba kwakungoBhileyamu, indodana kaBheyori owayengumbhuli. 23Umngcele wabakwaRubeni kwakuyiJordani nosebe lwalo. Leli kwakuyifa lozalo lukaRubeni ngokwemindeni yabo, imizi nemizana yabo.
UMose Wabela Isizwana SakwaGadi Ifa
24UMose wanika isizwana sakwaGadi ifa, ngokwemindeni yaso: 25indawo yabo kwawuyiJazeri, nayo yonke imizi yakwaGileyadi, nengxenye yezwe lakwa-Amoni kuya e-Aroweri, elingaphambi kweRaba, 26kubuye kusuke eHeshibhoni kuye eRamathi Mizpha neBhethonimi, kusuke eMahanayimi kuya esifundeni saseDebhiri, 27 nesigodi saseBhethi Haramu, iBhethi Nimra, iSukhothi neZafoni, nawo wonke umbuso wenkosi uSihoni waseHeshibhoni, iJordani nosebe lwayo, kuze kuyofika ezansi nolwandle iKhinerethi, empumalanga ngaphesheya kweJordani. 28Leli kwakuyifa lozalo lukaGadi ngokwemindeni yabo, imizi nezifunda zabo.
UMose Wabela Isizwana SakwaManase Ifa
29UMose wanika ingxenye yesizwana sakwaManase ifa laso; labelwa abozalo lukaManase ngokwemindeni yabo.
30 Indawo yabo yayisuka eMahanayimi, idabule kulona lonke iBhashani, wonke umbuso wenkosi u-Ogi waseBhashani, nemizi yonke eJayiri, eyayiseBhashani, okuyimizi engama-60, 31 nengxenye kwaGileyadi, i-Ashitharothi, ne-Edireyi, imizi yasembusweni ka-Ogi eBhashani; yonke leyo yabelwa abozalo lukaMakhiri, indodana kaManase ngokwemindeni yabo, ingxenye yabozalo lukaMakhiri.
32Leli yifa uMose alaba emathafeni akwaMowabi ngaphesheya kweJordani, empumalanga neJerikho. 33 Kepha kwabesizwana sakwaLevi, uMose akabanikanga sabelo esiyifa labo; uSimakade uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli uyisabelo sabo, njengoba ayeshilo kubo.
