1Kwathi uJabini inkosi yaseHasori ekuzwa lokho, wathumela kuJobabe inkosi yaseMadoni, nasenkosini yaseShimroni, nasenkosini ka-Asafa,
2nasemakhosini asenyakatho yezintaba namathafa, eningizimu yeKineroti, nasesigodini, nasentshonalanga kwaseDori,
3namaKhanani ngasempumalanga nasentshonalanga, nama-Amori, namaHeti, namaPherizi, namaJebusi ezintabeni, namaHivi phansi kweHermoni, ezweni laseMispa.
4Base bephuma, bona nawo onke amabutho abo kanye nabo, abantu abaningi ngangesihlabathi esisogwini lolwandle ngobuningi, namahhashi nezinqola eziningi.
5Esebuthene onke lawo makhosi, eza amisa ngasemanzini aseMeromu ukuba alwe no-Israyeli.
6UJehova wayesethi kuJoshuwa: “Ungabesabi, ngokuba kusasa ngalesi sikhathi ngiyakubakhulula bonke abanqotshiweyo phambi kuka-Israyeli; kumelwe unqume amahhashi abo futhi ushise izinqola zabo ngomlilo.
7Khona uJoshuwa nabo bonke abantu bempi bekanye naye babafikela ngasemanzini aseMeromu; bawela phezu kwabo.
8UJehova wabanikela esandleni sakwa-Israyeli, wabanqoba, wabaxosha kwaze kwaba seSidoni elikhulu, naseMisirefotimayimi, nasesigodini saseMispa ngasempumalanga; futhi babahlula kwaze kwasala noyedwa.
9UJoshuwa wenza kubo, njengalokho uJehova emyalile: wagijimisa amahhashi abo, wazishisa izinqola zabo ngomlilo.
10UJoshuwa waphenduka ngaleso sikhathi, wathatha iHazori, wayishaya inkosi yalo ngenkemba, ngoba iHazori laliyinhloko yayo yonke leyo mibuso.
11Babulala bonke abantu ababekulo ngobukhali benkemba, bababulala ngesiqalekiso; kwakungekho ophefumulayo; washisa iHasori ngomlilo.
12UJoshuwa wathatha yonke imizi yalawo makhosi nawo onke amakhosi awo, wawachitha ngosiko lwenkemba, wawashaya ngesiqalekiso, njengokuyala kukaMose inceku kaJehova.
13Kepha imizi eyayisele ezinqabeni zayo u-Israyeli akayishisanga namunye kuyo, kuphela iHasori lodwa; wamshisa uJoshuwa.
14Yonke impango yaleyo mizi nezinkomo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli bazithathela yona njengempango; kodwa bababulala bonke ngosiko lwenkemba baze babaqeda, abavumelanga muntu ukuphefumula.
15Njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose inceku yakhe, kanjalo uMose wamyala uJoshuwa, wenze njalo uJoshuwa; akenzanga lutho uJehova ayemyale ngalo uMose.
16UJoshuwa walithatha lonke lelo zwe, izintaba, neningizimu, nalo lonke izwe laseGosheni, nesigodi, nethafa, nezintaba zakwa-Israyeli, nesigodi sayo;
17kusukela entabeni yaseHalaki ekhuphukela eSeyiri, kuze kufike eBali Gadi esigodini saseLebanoni phansi kwentaba iHermoni; wathatha wonke amakhosi abo, wawanqoba, wawabulala.
18UJoshuwa walwa nawo wonke lawo makhosi isikhathi eside.
19Akubangakho muzi owenza ukuthula nabantwana bakwa-Israyeli, ngaphandle kwamaHivi akhileyo eGibeyoni; bonke abanye babayisa empini.
20Ngokuba kwavela kuJehova ukwenza lukhuni izinhliziyo zabo ukuba bahlasele u-Israyeli, abashaye ngesiqalekiso esichithayo, bangabi namusa, kodwa ukubachitha, njengalokho uJehova emyalile uMose.
21Ngaleso sikhathi uJoshuwa wafika wawaqothula ama-Anaki ezintabeni, eHebroni, eDebiri, e-Anabi, nasezintabeni zakwaJuda, nasezintabeni zonke zakwa-Israyeli; UJoshuwa wabaqalekisa kanye nemizi yabo.
22Akusalanga noyedwa kuma-Anaki ezweni labantwana bakwa-Israyeli; kwasala eGaza, naseGati, nase-Ashidodi kuphela.
23UJoshuwa walithatha izwe lonke njengakho konke uJehova abekushilo kuMose; uJoshuwa walinika u-Israyeli laba yifa ngokwezigaba zabo ngokwezizwe zabo. Izwe lazola ekulweni.
