20 Ma e gima wabiro timonegi: ‘Wabiro wegi gidagi mondo kik mirima bi kuomwa nikech waketho kwongʼruok mane wasingonegi.’”
Sizakwenza lokhu kibo, sibayekele baphile, ukuze kungabi khona ulaka phezu kwethu ngenxa yesifungo esasifunga kibo.
21 Negidhi nyime kagiwacho niya, “Wegi gidagi, mondo gibednwa jobar yien gi joumb pi ni jowa duto.” Omiyo jotelo norito singruok margi.
Lezinduna zathi kubo: Bayekeleni baphile, kodwa kababe ngabagamuli benkuni labakhi bamanzi enhlanganweni yonke, njengokutsho kwezinduna kubo.
22 Eka Joshua noluongo jo-Gibeon kendo owachonegi niya, “Angʼo momiyo ne uwuondowa ka uwacho ni, ‘Wadak mochwalore kodu,’ to kuom adier udak mana butwa?
UJoshuwa wasebabiza, wakhuluma labo esithi: Lisikhohliseleni, lisithi: Sikhatshana kakhulu lani; kanti lina lihlala phakathi kwethu?
23 Un joma okwongʼ! Ok unuwe tiyonwa kaka jobar yien gi joumb pi e od Nyasacha.”
Ngakho-ke liqalekisiwe, njalo kakuyikuqunywa phakathi kwenu izigqili labagamuli benkuni labakhi bamanzi bendlu kaNkulunkulu wami.
24 Negidwoko Joshua niya, “Jotichni notimo kamano nikech Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi nochiko Musa jatichne mondo omiu pinyni duto kendo uneg ji duto modakie. Omiyo ne waluor nikech un, kendo mano ema nomiyo watimo kamano.
Basebephendula uJoshuwa bathi: Ngoba kwatshelwa lokutshelwa ezincekwini zakho ukuthi iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho yalaya uMozisi inceku yayo ukulinika ilizwe lonke lokuchitha bonke abakhileyo belizwe phambi kwenu. Ngakho sesaba kakhulu ngempilo yethu ngenxa yenu. Yikho senze le into.
