1 Atamwalira Yoswa Aisraeli anafunsa Yehova kuti, “Ndani mwa ife ayambe nkhondo yomenyana ndi Akanaani?”
Thuutha wa Joshua gũkua, andũ a Isiraeli makĩũria Jehova atĩrĩ, “Nĩ a mekwambata mathiĩ mbere magatũhũũranĩre kũrĩ andũ a Kaanani?”
2 Yehova anayankha kuti, “Fuko la Yuda ndilo liyambe kupita. Ndawapatsa dzikolo mʼmanja mwawo.”
Nake Jehova agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Andũ a Juda nĩo megũthiĩ, tondũ nĩneanĩte bũrũri ũcio moko-inĩ mao.”
3 Choncho Ayuda anawuza abale awo a fuko la Simeoni kuti, “Bwerani tipitire limodzi mʼdziko limene tapatsidwa kuti tikamenyane ndi Akanaani. Ifenso tidzapita nanu mʼdziko limene anakugawirani.” Ndipo Asimeoni anapita nawo.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ a Juda makĩĩra andũ a Simeoni, ariũ a ithe wao, atĩrĩ, “Ũkai mwambatanie na ithuĩ tũtoonye bũrũri ũrĩa twagaĩirwo, tũkahũũrane na andũ a Kaanani, na ithuĩ nĩtũgaacooka tũthiĩ na inyuĩ tũkahũũranĩre igai rĩanyu.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Simeoni magĩthiĩ hamwe nao.
4 Choncho Ayuda ananyamuka, ndipo Yehova anapereka Akanaani ndi Aperezi mʼmanja mwawo. Ndipo anapha anthu 10,000 ku Bezeki.
Rĩrĩa andũ a Juda maamatharĩkĩire-rĩ, Jehova akĩneana andũ a Kaanani na Aperizi moko-inĩ mao, nao andũ a Juda makĩũraga arũme 10,000 kũu Bezeki.
5 Ku Bezekiko anakumana ndi ankhondo a mfumu Adoni-Bezeki ndipo anamenyana nawo, ndipo Ayudawo anagonjetsa Akanaani ndi Aperezi.
Kũu nĩkuo maakorire Adoni-Bezeki, makĩhũũrana nake, magĩtooria andũ a Kaanani na Aperizi.
6 Adoni-Bezekiyo anathawa, koma anamuthamangira ndi kumupeza, namugwira. Atamugwira anamudula zala zake zazikulu za ku manja ndi miyendo.
Adoni-Bezeki akĩũra, no makĩmũtengʼeria, makĩmũnyiita, makĩmũtinia ciara iria nene cia moko na iria nene cia magũrũ.
7 Tsono Adoni-Bezeki anati, “Mafumu 70 omwe anadulidwa zala zazikulu za ku manja ndi miyendo yawo ankatola nyenyeswa pansi pa tebulo langa. Mulungu tsopano wandibwezera zomwe ndinawachita.” Kenaka anapita naye ku Yerusalemu ndipo anafera komweko.
Nake Adoni-Bezeki akiuga atĩrĩ, “Athamaki mĩrongo mũgwanja matinĩtio ciara ciao iria nene cia moko na iria nene cia magũrũ, moonganagia rũitĩki rwa irio rungu rwa metha yakwa. Na rĩrĩ, Ngai nĩandĩhĩte nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa ndeekire.” Nao makĩmũtwara Jerusalemu, na agĩkuĩra kuo.
8 Pambuyo pake Ayuda anakathira nkhondo mzinda wa Yerusalemu ndipo anawulanda. Anapha anthu ambiri ndi kutentha mzinda wonse.
Ningĩ andũ a Juda magĩtharĩkĩra itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu, o narĩo makĩrĩtunyana, makĩũraga andũ a itũũra rĩu na hiũ cia njora, magĩcooka makĩrĩcina na mwaki.
9 Kenaka Ayuda anapita kukamenyana ndi Akanaani omwe amakhala ku dziko la ku mapiri, dziko la Negevi kummwera ndiponso mu zigwa.
Thuutha wa ũguo, andũ a Juda magĩikũrũka makahũũrane na andũ a Kaanani arĩa maatũũraga bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Negevu na magũrũ-inĩ ma irĩma cia mwena wa ithũĩro.
10 Anakalimbananso ndi Akanaani amene ankakhala ku Hebroni (mzinda womwe kale unkatchedwa Kiriyati-Araba). Kumeneko anagonjetsa Sesai, Ahimani ndi Talimai.
Ningĩ magĩthiĩ kũhũũrana na andũ a Kaanani arĩa maatũũraga kũu Hebironi (kũrĩa tene gwetagwo Kiriathu-Ariba) maathiĩ makĩhoota Sheshai, na Ahimani, na Talimai.

Kuuma kũu magĩthiĩ kũrũa na andũ arĩa maatũũraga Debiri (kũrĩa tene gwetagwo Kiriathu-Sefari.)
12 Tsono Kalebe anati, “Munthu amene angathire nkhondo mzinda wa Kiriati Seferi ndi kuwulanda, ndidzamupatsa mwana wanga Akisa kuti akhale mkazi wake.”
Nake Kalebu akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũgũtharĩkĩra na atunyane Kiriathu-Sefari-rĩ, ũcio nĩwe ngũhe mwarĩ wakwa Akisa, amũhikie.”
13 Otanieli mwana wa Kenazi, mngʼono wake wa Kalebe, ndiye anawulanda. Choncho Kalebe anamupatsa mwana wake Akisa kuti akhale mkazi wake.
Nake Othinieli, mũrũ wa Kenazu, mũrũ wa ithe na Kalebu ũrĩa mũnini, nĩwe watunyanire itũũra rĩu. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Kalebu akĩmũhe mwarĩ Akisa atuĩke mũtumia wake.
14 Tsiku lina atafika Akisayo, Otanieli anamuwumiriza mkazi wakeyo kuti apemphe munda kwa Kalebe abambo ake. Pamene Akisa anatsika pa bulu wake, Kalebe anamufunsa kuti, “Kodi ukufuna ndikuchitire chiyani?”
Mũthenya ũmwe Akisa nĩathiire kũrĩ Othinieli, nake akĩringĩrĩria Akisa ahooe mũgũnda kũrĩ ithe Kalebu. Aarĩkia kuuma igũrũ rĩa ndigiri yake, Kalebu akĩũria mwarĩ atĩrĩ, “Ũkwenda ngwĩkĩre atĩa?”
15 Iye anayankha kuti, “Mundikomere mtima. Popeza mwandipatsa ku Negevi, kumalo kumene kulibe madzi, mundipatsenso akasupe amadzi.” Choncho Kalebe anamupatsa akasupe a kumtunda ndi a kumunsi.
Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndagũthaitha ũndathime. Tondũ nĩũũheete bũrũri wa Negevu, he ithima cia maaĩ o nacio.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Kalebu akĩmũhe ithima cia mwena wa rũgongo na cia mwena wa kĩanda.
16 Tsono zidzukulu za Hobabu, Mkeni uja, mpongozi wa Mose, zinachoka ku Yeriko mzinda wa migwalangwa pamodzi ndi anthu a fuko la Yuda mpaka ku chipululu chimene chili kummwera kwa Aradi ndi kukakhala ndi Aamaleki.
