1 Hanki ama'i Israeli vahe'mo'zama Kenani mopama refko hu'za erisantihare'naza zamofo naneke. Hagi pristi ne' Eleazaki, Nuni nemofo Josuaki, mago'mago naga nofite'ma ugota hutere hu'naza vahe'mo'zane ana mopa refko hu'za zamizage'za erisantihare'naze.
Lala ngamazwe abantwana bakoIsrayeli abawadla abe yilifa elizweni leKhanani, uEleyazare umpristi loJoshuwa indodana kaNuni lenhloko zaboyise bezizwe zabantwana bakoIsrayeli ababanika wona aba yilifa,
2 Ana mopama refko hu'za eri'nazana 9ni'a naga nofiki 10nima hia nagara amu'nompinti refko hu'ne'za, ana mopa satu zokago re'za Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosesema asmi'nea kante ante'za mopa refko hu'naze.
ngenkatho yelifa labo, njengokulaya kweNkosi ngesandla sikaMozisi, ngezizwe eziyisificamunwemunye lengxenye yesizwe.
3 Hanki tare naga nofiki mago'ma amu'nompinti refko'ma hutre'nea naga nofimo'za Mosese'ma ko'ma hu'nere ante'za, Jodani timofo zage hanati kaziga mopa erisantihare'naze. Hianagi ana mopama ruga'amo'za refkoma hanafintira Livae naga'mo'za erisantiharegahaze huno Mosese'a osu'ne.
Ngoba uMozisi wayesenike ilifa izizwe ezimbili lengxenye yesizwe ngaphetsheya kweJordani; kodwa kumaLevi kanikanga ilifa phakathi kwazo.
4 Hanki Josefe nagara tare naga'nofi efore hu'nazana, e'i Manasene Ifraemikizni nagare. Hagi Livae nagara magore hu'za mopa ozami'naze. Hianagi sipisipima, memema, bulimakao afuzmima, kegavama hu mopane rankuma'ene zamizage'za mani'naze.
Ngoba abantwana bakoJosefa babeyizizwe ezimbili, uManase loEfrayimi. Njalo kabawanikanga amaLevi isabelo elizweni, ngaphandle kwemizi yokuhlala, lamadlelo ayo ezifuyo zabo lempahla zabo.
5 Ana hige'za Israeli vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosesema asmi'nea kea maka amage ante'za, Kenani mopa refko hu'za nagate nofite hu'za eri'naze.
Njengokulaya kweNkosi kuMozisi, abantwana bakoIsrayeli benza njalo, balaba ilizwe.
6 Anante Juda naga'mo'za Josuante Gilgalia ageno, Kenaziti ne' Jefune nemofo Kalepi'a Josuana anage huno asmi'ne, Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosese'ma Anumzamofo Vahe'ma asamigeno, Kades Banea kumate'ma nagriku'ene kagriku'ene hu'nea nanekea kagra ko antahi'nane.
Khona abantwana bakoJuda basondela kuJoshuwa eGiligali; uKalebi indodana kaJefune umKenizi wasesithi kuye: Wena uyalazi ilizwi iNkosi eyalikhuluma kuMozisi umuntu kaNkulunkulu mayelana lawe lamayelana lami eKadeshi-Bhaneya.
7 Hanki ana knafina nagra 40'a kafu hu'nogeno Kades Banea kumatetira frakita vuta mopa ome kehogura Ra Anumzamofo eri'za ne' Mosese'a hunantege'na vutena e'noana, havigea nagra osu'na nagrama ke'noa zanku nagu'areti hu'na tamage naneke eme asmi'noe.
Ngangileminyaka engamatshumi amane lapho uMozisi inceku yeNkosi ingithuma ngisuka eKadeshi-Bhaneya ukuhlola ilizwe. Ngasengibuyisela kuye umbiko njengokusenhliziyweni yami.
8 Hianagi nafuhe'za nagranema vu'namo'za koro ke nehu'za, vahera zamagu'a zamazeri karogro ki'naze. Ana hu'nazanagi nagra maka nagu'areti hu'na Ra Anumzana Anumzanimofona amage ante'noe.
Kodwa abazalwane bami ababenyuke lami benza inhliziyo zabantu zancibilika; kodwa mina ngayilandela ngokupheleleyo iNkosi uNkulunkulu wami.
9 Higeno ana zupa Mosese'a huvempa huno anage hu'ne, tamagerfa huno ina mopare'ma kagiama rente'nana mopa kagrane mofavre nagaka'ane erisantihareta manisaza mopa mevava hugahie. Na'ankure kagra nagri Anumzana kagu'areti hunka amage ante'nane.
UMozisi wasefunga mhlalokho esithi: Isibili umhlaba olunyathele kuwo unyawo lwakho uzakuba ngowakho ube yilifa, lebantwaneni bakho kuze kube nininini, ngoba uyilandele ngokupheleleyo iNkosi uNkulunkulu wami.
10 Hanki Kalepi'a mago'ane huno, Antahiho, maka Israeli vahe'mo'ma ka'ma mopafima mani'za neageno'ma, Ra Anumzamo'ma ama ana zanku'ma Mosesema asmi'nereti'ma e'neana, 45'a kafu evu'ne. Hanki nagrira natrege'na ana knafina ofri'noanki menina kafunimo'a 85'a kafu nehie.
Khathesi-ke khangela, iNkosi ingilondoloze ngiphila njengokutsho kwayo okwale iminyaka engamatshumi amane lanhlanu, kusukela esikhathini iNkosi eyakhuluma ngaso lelilizwi kuMozisi, uIsrayeli esahamba enkangala. Khathesi-ke khangela, lamuhla ngileminyaka engamatshumi ayisificaminwembili lanhlanu.
11 Hu'neanagi Mosese'ma hunantege'nama vu'noa zupama me'neankna hankave menina hankaveni'a zahufa me'neanki'na, amne vu'na e'na hu'na hara hugahue.
Ngisaqinile lalamuhla njengasosukwini uMozisi angithuma ngalo. Njengamandla ami ngalesosikhathi, asenjalo amandla ami khathesi, awempi lawokuphuma lawokungena.
12 Hagi ana zupama Ra Anumzamo'ma hu'nea kante antenka menina agonamofo asopa kaziga mopa namighane. Hanki kagra ana zupa mani'nenka antahi'nanke'za fraki'tama vuta ana mopama ome ke'nona vahe'mo'za ana agonamofo asoparegama me'nea mopagura hu'za, tusinasi Anaki vahe'mo'za ran kuma'zamimofona hankave have kegina hu kagi'za mani'naze hu'za hu'naze. Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'ma nazama huku'ma hanuno'a naza hanige'na, agrama hu'nea kante ante'na ana vahera zamahe natitregahue hu'noe.
Ngakho-ke nginika lintaba iNkosi eyakhuluma ngayo ngalolosuku, ngoba wena wezwa mhlalokho ukuthi amaAnaki ayekhona lapho lemizi emikhulu ebiyelwe ngemithangala. Aluba iNkosi ilami, ngizawaxotsha elifeni, njengokutsho kweNkosi.
13 Anante Josua'a Jefune nemofo Kalepina Anumzamo aza hinogu asomu ke hunenteno, erisantiharenogu Hebroni kaziga mopa Kalepina ami'ne.
UJoshuwa wasembusisa wanika uKalebi indodana kaJefune iHebroni ibe yilifa.
14 E'ina hu'negu Hebroni mopamo'a Kenazi ne' Jefune nemofo Kalepine agripinti'ma fore'ma hanaza vahe'mokizmi mopa me'ne. Na'ankure agra maka agu'areti huno Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe'mokizmi Anumzana amage ante'negu anara hu'ne.
Ngalokho-ke iHebroni yaba ngekaKalebi indodana kaJefune umKenizi yaba yilifa kuze kube lamuhla, ngoba wayilandela ngokupheleleyo iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli.
15 Higeno korapara Hebroni kumamofo agi'a Kiriat-Arbae hu'za nehazane, tusinasi Anaki vahepinti ne' Arba'e nehaza ne'mofo agire asamare'naza kumare. Higeno ana maka mopafina hara forera osigeno, mopamo'a fru huno me'ne.
Lebizo leHebroni kuqala laliyiKiriyathi-Arba, owayengumuntu omkhulu phakathi kwamaAnaki. Ilizwe laseliphumula empini.
