1Inhlangano yonke yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli yabuthana eShilo, yamisa khona itende lokuhlangana. Izwe lanqotshwa phambi kwabo.
2Kwasala phakathi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli izizwe eziyisikhombisa ezingakalamukeli ifa lazo.

6Kumelwe nibhale izwe libe izingxenye eziyisikhombisa, nilethe lapha kimi incazelo, ukuze nginenzele inkatho lapha phambi kukaJehova uNkulunkulu wethu.

11Kwavela inkatho yesizwe sabantwana bakwaBenjamini ngezizukulwane zabo; umkhawulo wenkatho yabo waphuma phakathi kwabantwana bakwaJuda nabantwana bakwaJosefa.
12Umkhawulo wabo ngasohlangothini lwasenyakatho wawusuka eJordani; umkhawulo wenyuka ohlangothini lweJeriko ngasenyakatho, wenyuka ezintabeni ngasentshonalanga; ukuphuma kwawo kwakusehlane laseBeti Aveni.
