UJoshuwa 13 Umyalo kaJoshuwa maqondana nezwe

¹ UJoshuwa wayesemdala, ehlushwe iminyaka; uJehova wathi kuye: “Usumdala, uneminyaka eminingi, kusekhona izwe eliningi ongalidla.

² Nanti izwe elisele: yonke imikhawulo yamaFilisti, nawo onke amaGesuri,

³ kusukela eSihori eliphambi kweGibhithe kuze kube semngceleni we-Ekroni ngasenyakatho, elibalelwa kumaKhanani: izikhulu ezinhlanu zamaFilisti; amaGasathi, nama-Ashidoti, nama-Eskaloni, namaGiti, nama-Ekroni; futhi ama-Avites:

⁴ Kusukela eningizimu, lonke izwe lamaKhanani, neMehara eliseceleni kwamaSidoni, kuze kufike e-Afeki, kuze kube semkhawulweni wama-Amori;

⁵ nezwe lamaGibhili, nalo lonke iLebanoni ngasempumalanga, kusukela eBali-gadi phansi kwentaba yaseHermoni kuze kube sekuyeni eHamati.

⁶ Bonke abakhileyo ezintabeni kusukela eLebanoni kuze kube seMisirefotimayimi, nawo wonke amaSidoni, ngiyobaxosha phambi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli; nje ulabele abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ngenkatho njengefa, njengalokho ngakuyala.

⁷ Bese uhlukanisa leli zwe libe yifa lezizwe eziyisishiyagalolunye nengxenye yesizwe sakwaManase,

⁸ abakwaRubeni nabakwaGadi bamukela kubo ifa labo uMose abanika lona phesheya kweJordani ngasempumalanga, njengalokho uMose inceku kaJehova abanika khona;

⁹ kusukela e-Aroweri elisosebeni lomfula i-Arinoni, nomuzi ophakathi nomfula, nethafa lonke kusukela eMedeba kuze kube seDiboni;

¹⁰ nayo yonke imizi kaSihoni inkosi yama-Amori, owayebusa eHeshbhon, kuze kube semkhawulweni wabantwana bakwa-Amoni;

¹¹ nelakwaGileyadi, nomkhawulo wamaGeshuri, namaMahagati, nayo yonke intaba yaseHermoni, neBashani yonke, kwaze kwaba seSaleka;

¹² wonke umbuso ka-Ogi eBashani owabusa e-Ashitaroti nase-Edireyi owasala ensalini yamaRefa; ngoba bamnqoba uMozisi, babaxotsha.

¹³ Kepha abantwana bakwa-Israyeli abawaxoshanga amaGeshuri namaMagati, kepha amaGeshuri namaMagati ahlala phakathi kuka-Israyeli kuze kube namuhla.

¹⁴ Isizwe sakwaLevi sodwa akasinikanga lifa; iminikelo yomlilo kaJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli iyifa labo njengokusho kwakhe kubo.

¹⁵ UMose wanika isizwe sabantwana bakwaRubeni ifa ngokwezizukulwane zabo.

¹⁶ Umkhawulo wabo wasukela e-Aroweri elisosebeni lomfula i-Arinoni, nomuzi ophakathi nomfula, nethafa lonke eMedeba;

¹⁷ iHeshiboni nayo yonke imizi yalo esethafeni; iDiboni, neBamoti Bali, neBeti Bali-meyoni,

¹⁸ neJahasa, neKedemoti, neMefati,

¹⁹ neKiriyatayimi, neSibima, neSareti-Sahari entabeni yesigodi;

²⁰ neBeti Peyori, ne-Ashidoti iPisiga, neBeti Jesimoti,

²¹ nayo yonke imizi yasethafeni, nombuso wonke kaSihoni, inkosi yama-Amori, owayebusa eHeshiboni, owanqotshwa nguMose kanye nezikhulu zakwaMidiyani, o-Evi, noRekemi, noSuri, noHure, noReba, izikhulu zakwaMidiyani. USihoni, ohlala ezweni.

²² UBileyamu indodana kaBeyori, umthakathi, wabulala abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ngenkemba phakathi kwalabo ababulawa yibo.

²³ Umkhawulo wabantwana bakwaRubeni wawuyiJordani nomkhawulo walo. Leli laliyifa labantwana bakwaRubeni ngemindeni yabo, imizi nemizana yayo.

²⁴ UMose wanika isizwe sakwaGadi ifa, abantwana bakwaGadi ngezizukulwane zabo.

²⁵ Umkhawulo wabo wawuyiJazeri, nayo yonke imizi yakwaGileyadi, nenxenye yezwe labantwana bakwa-Amoni, kuze kufike e-Aroweri ephambi kweRaba;

²⁶ kusukela eHeshiboni ukuya eRamatimispa naseBetonimi; kusukela eMahanayimi kuze kufike emngceleni waseDebiri;

²⁷ nasesigodini iBeti-ram, neBeti Nimra, neSukoti, neSafoni, ingxenye eseleyo yombuso kaSihoni, inkosi yaseHeshiboni, neJordani nemikhawulo yalo, kuze kube semaphethelweni oLwandle lwaseKinereti ngaphesheya kweJordani, ngasempumalanga.

²⁸ Leli yifa labantwana bakwaGadi ngemindeni yabo, imizi nemizana yayo.

²⁹ UMose wayinika inxenye yesizwe sakwaManase ilifa, laba yifa lenxenye yesizwe sabantwana bakwaManase ngezizukulwane zabo.

³⁰ Umkhawulo wabo wasukela eMahanayimi, lonke iBashani, wonke umbuso ka-Ogi, inkosi yaseBashani, nayo yonke imizana yaseJayire eseBashani: imizi engamashumi ayisithupha;

³¹ Inxenye yakwaGileyadi, ne-Ashitaroti, ne-Edireyi, imizi yombuso ka-Ogi eBashani, yayingelabantwana bakwaMagiri indodana kaManase, inxenye yabantwana bakwaMagiri ngemindeni yabo.

³² Lawa angamafa uMose awanika ukuba abe yifa emathafeni akwaMowabi ngaphesheya kweJordani eJeriko ngasempumalanga.

³³ Kodwa isizwe sakwaLevi uMozisi akasinikanga ilifa; uJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli wayeyifa labo njengokusho kwakhe kubo.
