2 Ngaleso sikhathi uSimakade wathi kuJoshuwa: “Yenza imimese ngetshe lensengetsha bese usoka abantu bakwa-Israyeli okwesibili.”
3Ngakho-ke uJoshuwa wazenzela imimese ngetshe lensengetsha, wasoka abantu bakwa-Israyeli eGqumeni Lamajwabu.
4 Kwakuyilesi isizathu sokuba uJoshuwa abasoke: bonke abesilisa kubantu abaphuma eGibhithe, nawo wonke amabutho, babefele endleleni ehlane emveni kokuphuma kwabo eGibhithe. 5Nakuba bonke ababephume eGibhithe babesokiwe, bonke abazalelwa endleleni kudatshulwa ehlane emveni kokuphuma eGibhithe, babengasokiwe. 6 Ngokuba abantu bakwa-Israyeli bahamba iminyaka engama-40 ehlane, saze saphela isizwe namadoda empi ababephume eGibhithe, abangalalelanga izwi likaSimakade, afunga ngalo kubo ukuthi abasoze balibone izwe ayethembise ukulinika oyisemkhulu, izwe elichichima ubisi noju. 7Waphakamisa abantwana babo esikhundleni sabo, uJoshuwa wabasoka ngokuba babengasokwanga endleleni; 8kwathi sebesokiwe bonke, bahlala lapho, baze baphola.
