16 Ame siawoe Mose dɔ be woaɖatsa anyigba la me. Ɣeyiɣi sia mee (Mose trɔ Hosea ƒe ŋkɔ wòzu Yosua) si gɔmee nye “Yehowa nye Ɖeɖe.”
La ngamabizo alawomadoda athunywa nguMosi ukuyahlola ilizwe. (UMosi wetha uHosheya indodana kaNuni ibizo elithi Joshuwa.)
17 Mose dɔ wo ɖa, eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miyi anyigba la ƒe anyigbeme lɔƒo, le Negeb ƒe tonyigba la dzi,
Ekubathumeni kwakhe ukuyahlola ilizwe laseKhenani, uMosi wathi kubo, “Hambani liye eNegebi likhuphukele elizweni lezintaba.
18 ne miakpɔ ale si anyigba la le. Mikpɔ ale si ame siwo le anyigba la dzi hã le, ne wonye ame sesẽwo alo ame benɔewo, ne wosɔ gbɔ alo womesɔ gbɔ o.
Likhangele ukuthi ilizwe lakhona linjani njalo lokuthi abantu bakhona balamandla kumbe babuthakathaka, balutshwana kumbe banengi.
19 Milé ŋku ɖe nuwo ŋu, miakpɔ ne anyigba la nyo na agblemenukuwo loo alo menyo na wo o, ne woƒe duwo lolo loo alo wole sue, ne wotu mɔ sesẽwo ɖe wo ŋu,
Ilizwe abahlala kulo linjani? Lihle na loba libi? Amadolobho abahlala kuwo anjani? Agonjolozelwe ngemiduli loba asegcekeni nje?
20 ne anyigba la nyo alo menyo o, eye ne atiwo sɔ gbɔ le edzi loo alo womesɔ gbɔ o. Migavɔ̃ o. Mitsɔ woƒe agblemenuku, siwo miakpɔ la ƒe ɖewo vɛ.” (Wonɔ waintsetse gbãtɔwo gbem ɣe ma ɣi.)
Umhlabathi wakhona unjani? Uvundile na loba ulugwadule? Langabe lilezihlahla loba hayi? Yenzani ubungcono benu libuye lezinye zezithelo zakulelolizwe.” (Kwakuyisikhathi sokuvuthwa kwezithelo zakuqala zevini.)
21 Ale wotsa ŋku le anyigba la dzi tso keke Zin gbegbe la va ɖo Rehob, le Hamat gbɔ.
Ngakho bahamba ukuyahlola ilizwe besukela eNkangala yaseZini kuze kuyefika eRehobhi, ngokuya eLebho Hamathi.
22 Wotso afi ma ɖo ta dzigbeme lɔƒo; woto Negeb gbã, eye woyi Hebron. Wokpɔ Ahimanitɔwo, Sesaitɔwo kple Talmaitɔwo. Ame siawo katã nye Anak, ame dzɔatsu ƒe dzidzimeviwo. (Hebron nye du xoxo aɖe. Wotsoe ƒe adre do ŋgɔ na Tanis tsotso le Egipte.)
Bahamba-ke badabula eNegebi baze bayafika eHebhroni, lapho okwakuhlala khona u-Ahimani, loSheshayi kanye loThalimayi, izizukulwane zika-Anakhi. (IHebhroni yakhiwa iminyaka eyisikhombisa kungakakhiwa idolobho laseZowani eGibhithe.)
23 Tso afi ma la, wova afi si woyɔna egbegbe be, Eskɔl ƒe Balime. Wotso waintsetse kpo ɖeka le afi sia wòlolo ale gbegbe be ame evee tsɔ ati de eme hafi te ŋu tsɔe! Wotsɔ yevuboɖa kple gbotsetse siwo wokpɔ le afi ma hã ƒe ɖewo ɖe asi.
Bathi befika esihotsheni sase-Eshikholi baquma ugatsha olwalulesixha sezithelo zevini. Ababili babo basithwala besigaxe egodweni ndawonye lamaphomegranathi kanye lomkhiwa.
24 Israelviwo na ŋkɔ Balime sia be, Eskɔl, si gɔmee nye “Kpo ɖeka” le waintsetse si wokpɔ le afi ma ƒe kpo ɖeka ƒe lolo ta!
Lindawo yabizwa ngokuthi yisihotsha sase-Eshikholi ngenxa yesixha sezithelo zevini esaqunywa khona ngabako-Israyeli.
25 Le ŋkeke blaene megbe la, wotrɔ gbɔ.
Ngemva kwensuku ezingamatshumi amane zokuhlola ilizwe inhloli zabuyela emuva.
26 Wogblɔ nu si wokpɔ la na Mose, Aron kple Israelviwo katã le Paran gbedzi le Kades, eye wotsɔ kutsetse siwo wotsɔ vɛ la fia wo.
Babuyela kuMosi lo-Aroni lakuso sonke isizwe sako-Israyeli eKhadeshi, enkangala yasePharani. Babikela uMosi lo-Aroni kanye labo bonke abako-Israyeli njalo batshengisa lezithelo zakulelolizwe.
27 Wona nutsotso Mose ale, “Míede anyigba si dzi mieɖo mí ɖo be míatsa ŋku le la dzi. Enye anyigba nyui aɖe ŋutɔ, anyigba si dzi notsi kple anyitsi le tsatsam le. Míetsɔ kutsetse siawo vɛ be woaɖe nya si gblɔm míele la ƒe nyateƒenyenye afia.
Balandisela uMosi bathi: “Sihambile elizweni lelo obukade usithume kulo, ngempela ligeleza uchago loluju! Nanzi izithelo zalo.
28 Ke afi ma tɔwo nye ŋusẽtɔwo. Woƒe duwo lolo, eye woglã wo katã. Gawu la, míekpɔ Anak ƒe dzidzimeviwo gɔ̃ hã le afi ma!
Kodwa abantu abahlala khona balamandla kanti lamadolobho akhona makhulu njalo avikelwe. Size sabona lezizukulwane zika-Anakhi khonale.
29 Amalekitɔwo le gbegbe le dziehe gome, ke Hititɔwo, Yebusitɔwo kple Amoritɔwo ya le togbɛwo dzi, eye Kanaantɔwo le atsiaƒu kple Yɔdan to.”
Ama-Amaleki ahlala eNegebi; amaHithi, lamaJebusi lama-Amori bahlala elizweni lezintaba, amaKhenani wona ahlala eduzane lolwandle esekele umfula uJodani.”
30 Tete Kaleb tsi nya ɖe ameawo nu le Mose ŋkume, eye wògblɔ be, “Mina míayi aɖaxɔ anyigba la, elabena míate ŋui xoxoxo.”
Emva kwalokho uKhalebi wathulisa abantu phambi kukaMosi wasesithi, “Kufanele ukuthi sihambe siyethatha ilizwe leli libe ngelethu, ngoba singakwenza sibili.”
31 Ŋkutsala bubuawo gblɔ be, “Miate ŋu aɖadze wo dzi o, elabena wosesẽ wu mi.”
Kodwa amadoda lawo ayehambe laye athi, “Asingeke sibahlasele abantu labo; balamandla kulathi.”
32 Ale wokaka nutsotso gbegblẽ ɖe Israelviwo dome tso anyigba si dzi wotsa ŋku le la ŋuti. Wogblɔ na ameawo be, “Anyigba si dzi míetsa ŋku le la le edzinɔlawo mim. Ame siwo katã míekpɔ la nye ame dzɔatsuwo.
Basebetshela abantu bako-Israyeli umbiko omubi ngelizwe ababelihlolile. Bathi, “Ilizwe esilihlolileyo liyabagabhela labantu abahlala kulo. Bonke abantu esibabone khonale yiziqhwaga.
33 Míekpɔ Nefilimtɔwo hã le afi ma (Anak nye Nefilimtɔwo ƒe dzidzimeviwo). Míedze le woƒe ŋkume abe abɔwo ene, eye nenema kee woawo hã kpɔ míe.”
Sibone khona amaNefilimi (isizukulwane sika-Anakhi sivela kumaNefilimi.) Emehlweni ethu besingangentethe phambi kwabo, lasemehlweni abo besinjalo.”
