Nake Jehova akĩĩra Shaitani atĩrĩ, “Jehova arogũkũũma, wee Shaitani! Jehova ũrĩa ũthuurĩte Jerusalemu arogũkũũma wee! Githĩ mũndũ ũyũ ti gĩcinga gĩtharĩtwo kuuma mwaki-inĩ?”
3 Josua kukenamo'a tusi pehanage hu'negeno ana ankeromofo avuga oti'ne.
Na rĩrĩ, Joshua eehumbĩte nguo irĩ gĩko hĩndĩ ĩyo aarũgamĩte mbere ya mũraika.
4 Hagi ana ankeromo'a mago'a ankerontamima anante'ma oti kagi'naza ankeroramina amanage huno zamasami'ne, pehanage kukena'a hate atreho, huno nehuno rukrahe huno Josuankura amanage hu'ne, Kumika'a atrenegante'na marerirfa kukena rehankre kantoe huno hu'ne.
Mũraika ũcio akĩĩra arĩa maarũngiĩ mbere yake atĩrĩ, “Mũrutei nguo icio ciake irĩ na gĩko.” Agĩcooka akĩĩra Joshua atĩrĩ, “Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩnjeheretie mehia maku, na nĩngũkũhumba nguo cia goro.”
5 Anante nagra amanage hu'noe, atrege'za anuntera agru tavravenu vafoa anakinteho hu'na huge'za, agru hu'nea tavrave pristi vahe'mo'zama zamanunte'ma vafoma negiza tavrave anuntera kinente'za, kasefa za'za kukena eri'za eme hunte'naze. Ana'ma hazageno'a Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a tavaonte otino mani'ne.
Ngĩcooka ngiuga atĩrĩ, “Muohei kĩremba gĩtheru mũtwe.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmuoha kĩremba gĩtheru mũtwe, na makĩmũhumba nguo, mũraika wa Jehova arũgamĩte o hau.
6 Anante ana ankeromo'a amanage huno Josuana avumro nanekea asami'ne.
Mũraika wa Jehova agĩatha Joshua, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ,
7 Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie, kagrama Nagri navu'nava'ma nevaririnka nagrama hanua kema amage'ma antesanke'na, nagra hu izo hugantenugenka noni'ane nonkumani'anena kegava nehunka, amama oti'naza vahe amunompina hu izo huganta'nena vano hugahane.
“Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga ũũ, ‘Ũngĩrũmĩrĩra mĩthiĩre yakwa na ũmenyagĩrĩre maũndũ marĩa nyendaga mekwo, nĩũgaathaga nyũmba yakwa, o na ũtuĩke mũrũgamĩrĩri wa nja ciayo, na ngwĩtĩkĩrie ũtuĩke ũmwe wa andũ aya marũngiĩ haha.
8 Ugagota pristi ne' Josuagane, maka ruga'a pristi vahe'ma kavugama mani'nazamotanena menina antahiho, tamagra henkama fore'ma hania zantmimofo avameza mani'naze. Nagra eri'za vahe'ni'amofo agi'a Zafa Azankunare hu'neanki'na avre'na egahue.
“‘Ta thikĩrĩria, wee Joshua, mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, hamwe na athiritũ aku aya maikarĩte thĩ mbere yaku, o acio kĩmenyithia kĩa maũndũ marĩa magooka: Nĩngarehe ndungata yakwa, o we Rũhonge.’
9 Kama go, mago have 7ni'a avurga hunte'nea have Josua avugama ante'noa havere avona krenente'na, ama mopafima me'nea kefo avu'ava zana magoke knafi eri atregahue, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga ũũ, ‘Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩnjigĩte ihiga mbere ya Joshua! Ihiga rĩu rĩrĩ na maitho mũgwanja, na nĩngakurura maandĩko igũrũ warĩo, na njeherie mehia ma bũrũri ũyũ na mũthenya ũmwe.
10 Ana zupa mago magomota tava'ontamire'ma nemani'namokizmia ke hanage'za tamagri grepi nofimofo turunapine, fiki zafamofo turunapi emanigahaze.
“‘Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, o mũndũ wanyu nĩageeta mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake maikare rungu rwa mũtĩ wake wa mũthabibũ na wa mũkũyũ,’” ũguo nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga.
