1 Hanki ana ankeromo'a ugagota pristi ne' Josua'a Ra Anumzamofo ankeromofo avuga oti'negeno naveri hu'ne. Hagi vahe'mofoma huhaviza huno, e'ina hu'ne amana hu'nema nehia ne' Sata'a ana ankeromofona azantamaga kaziga oti'neno, Josuana keaga hunte'naku retro huno mani'ne.
Kisha Yahwe akanionesha Yoshua kuhani mkuu amesimama mbele za malaika wa Yahwe na Shetani amesimama mkono wake wa kushoto kumshitaki kwa ajili ya dhambi.
2 Ra Anumzamo'a Satankura huno, Ra Anumzamo'a Sataga keonke kema nehanana, havige nehane huno nehie. Tamage, Ra Anumzana Jerusalemi kuma'ma huhampri'nea Ra Anumzamo'a ama ne'ma keagama huntanana eri atroe huno kazeri ko'nerino anage hu'ne, Ama nera tevefinti'ma tevema tagisga nehiaza hu'noe.
Malaika wa Yahwe akamwambia Shetani, “Yahwe na akukemee, Yahwe, aliyeuchagua Yerusalemu, akukemee! Je hiki si kinga kilichotolewa motoni”
3 Josua kukenamo'a tusi pehanage hu'negeno ana ankeromofo avuga oti'ne.
Yoshua alikuwa na mavazi machafu aliposimama mbele ya malaika.
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.
Malaika akawaambia waliosimama mbele yake, “Mvulisheni hayo mavazi machafu.” Kisha akamwambia Yoshua, “Tazama! nimeuondoa uovu wako na nitakuvika mavazi safi.”
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.
Haya wamvike kilemba safi kichwani!” Hivyo wakaweka kilemba safi kichwani pa Yoshua na wakamvika mavazi safi wakati malaika wa Yahwe amesimama kando.
6 Anante ana ankeromo'a amanage huno Josuana avumro nanekea asami'ne.
Kisha malaika wa Yahwe akamwagiza Yoshua na kusema,
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.
Yahwe wa majeshi asema hivi: “Ikiwa utatembea katika njia zangu, na kutunza amri zangu, ndipo utakapoisimamia nyumba yangu na kulinda nyua zangu, kwa maana nitakuruhusu kwenda na kutoka kati ya wasimamao mbele zangu.
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.
WeweYoshua kuhani mkuu na wenzako wanaoishi nawe! Sikilizeni. Watu hawa ni ishara, kwa kuwa mimi mwenyewe nitamwinua mtumishi wangu aitwaye Tawi.
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.
Tazameni jiwe nililoliweka mbele ya Yoshua. Kuna macho saba juu ya jiwe hili moja, nami nitaandika maneno juu yake - asema Yahwe wa majeshi - nami nitaondoa dhambi katika nchi hii kwa siku moja.
10 Ana zupa mago magomota tava'ontamire'ma nemani'namokizmia ke hanage'za tamagri grepi nofimofo turunapine, fiki zafamofo turunapi emanigahaze.
Katika siku hiyo kila mtu atamwalika jirani yake kukaa chini ya mzabibu na mtini wake.” asema Yahwe wa majeshi.
