UJoshuwa 15

1 Isabelo sesizwe sikaJuda, usendo lunye ngalunye sasiqhele sehla sayafika elizweni le-Edomi, sisiyakhawula eNkangala yeZini eningizimu kude le.

Pea ko e tofiʻa eni ʻoe faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Siuta ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga; ʻio, ʻo ʻalu ki he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻItomi ʻi he toafa ʻo Sini ʻi he potu tonga, ko hono ngataʻanga ʻaupito ʻoe potu tonga.

2 Umngcele wabo weningizimu wawuqalisela ethekwini oluseningizimu emaphethelweni oLwandle lweTswayi,

Pea ko honau ngataʻanga ʻi he potu tonga naʻe fai mei he matātahi kona, mei he potu [tahi ]ki kō ʻoku hanga ki tonga:

3 uchaphela eningizimu yoMkhandlu weNkume, uqhubeka usiya eZini, usiyaphutsha eningizimu yeKhadeshi Bhaneya. Wasusedlula eHezironi usiyafika e-Adari wabhoda unquma wayaphutsha ususeKhakha.

Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ai ia ʻi he potu tonga ki Meali-ʻAkilapimi, pea ʻalu ai ki Sini, pea ʻalu hake ai ʻi he potu tonga ki Ketesi-Pania, pea ʻalu ai ki Heseloni, pea ʻalu ai ki ʻAta, pea ʻalu fakatakamilo ki Kalika:

4 Wasusedlula usiya e-Azimoni usiyaxhumana lesiHotsha saseGibhithe, uphelela olwandle. Lo yiwo umngcele wabo waseningizimu.

Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ia ki ʻAsimoni, ʻo mole ai ki he vaitafe ʻo ʻIsipite: pea ko e ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻoe mata fonua ko ia, ko e tahi: ko homou ngataʻanga fonua eni ki tonga.

5 Umngcele wempumalanga luLwandle lweTswayi kuze kufike lapho okuthela khona iJodani. Umngcele weningizimu waqalela okhunjini lolwandle ekuqaleni kweJodani,

Pea ko hono ngataʻanga ki he potu hahake ko e tahi kona, ʻio, ʻo aʻu ki hono ngataʻanga ʻo Soatani. Pea ko honau ngataʻanga ʻi he potu tokelau, naʻe fai mei he potu ki kō ʻi he tahi ʻi hono potu mamaʻo atu ʻo Soatani:

6 wakhwela usiya eBhethi-Hogla, wabuye waqhubeka usiya Bhethi-Arabha uqonda eLitsheni likaBhohani indodana kaRubheni.

Pea naʻe ʻalu ai hono ngataʻanga ki Pete-Hokela, pea ʻalu ai ʻo ofi ki he potu tokelau ʻo Pete-ʻAlapa; pea ʻalu hono ngataʻanga ki he maka ʻo Pohani ko e foha ʻo Lupeni:

7 Umngcele wasuqansa usiya eDebhiri usuka esigodini sika-Akhori, wasujika usiya enyakatho ukhangela eGiligali ekhangelane loMkhandlu ka-Adumimu eningizimu yodonga. Waqhubeka usiya emanzini ase-Eni Shemeshi wasufika e-Eni Rogeli.

Pea naʻe ʻalu hono ngataʻanga ki Tipa mei he teleʻa ʻo Ekoa, ki he feituʻu tokelau, ʻo hanga atu ki Kilikali, ʻo feʻunga mo e hakeʻanga ki Etumima, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he potu tonga ʻoe vaitafe: pea naʻe ʻalu ai hono ngataʻanga ki he ngaahi vai ʻo Eni-Semesi, pea ko hono ʻaluʻanga fakangatangata ʻo ia naʻe ʻi Eni-Lokeli;

8 Wasuqonda esigodini seBheni-Hinomu emthezukweni wangeningizimu yedolobho lamaJebusi (okutsho iJerusalema). Usuka lapho waqansa phezu koqaqa entshonalanga yesigodi seHinomu ekucineni kwangenyakatho yesigodi seRefayi.

Pea naʻe ʻalu hake hono ngataʻanga ki he teleʻa ʻae foha ʻo Henomi ki hono potu tonga ʻoe kau Sepusi; pea ko Selūsalema ia: pea naʻe ʻalu hake ai hono ngataʻanga ki he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga ʻaia ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he mata teleʻa ʻo Henomi ki lulunga, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi hono ngataʻanga ʻoe teleʻa ʻoe kakai lalahi ki tokelau:

9 Usuka engqongeni yoqaqa, umngcele waqonda emthonjeni wamanzi aseNefuthowa, wasuphutsha emadolobheni eNtabeni ye-Efroni wasusehla usiya eBhala (okutsho iKhiriyathi-Jeyarimi).

Pea naʻe fua hono ngataʻanga mei he moʻunga ʻo aʻu ki he matavai ʻo Nefitoa, pea mole atu ia ki he ngaahi kolo ʻoe moʻunga ko ʻEfilone; pea naʻe fua atu hono ngataʻanga ki Peala, ʻaia ko Kesa-Sialimi.

10 Wasujika usiya entshonalanga usuka eBhala usiya entabeni yeSeyiri, wedlula emthezukweni wangenyakatho yentaba iJeyarimi (okutsho iKhesaloni) waqhubeka usiya eBhethi-Shemeshi uchaphela eThimina.

Pea naʻe ʻalu fakatakamilo hono ngataʻanga mei Peala ʻi lulunga ki he moʻunga ko Seia, pea mole ai pe ʻo aʻu ki he potu ʻoe moʻunga ko Sialimi, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Kesaloni, ʻi he potu tokelau, pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ai ki Pete-Semesi, pea ʻalu ai ki Timina:

11 Waqonda emthezukweni wenyakatho owe-Ekroni, wajika ukhangele eShikheroni, wedlule usiya eNtabeni yeBhala wafika eJabhiniyeli. Umngcele waphelela olwandle.

Pea naʻe ʻalu ai hono ngataʻanga ʻo hoko atu ki he potu ʻo Ekiloni ki tokelau: pea naʻe fua hono ngataʻanga ki Sikiloni, pea ʻalu ai ia ki he moʻunga ko Peala, ʻo aʻu atu ki Sapinili: pea ko hono ngataʻanga naʻe aʻu atu ki tahi.

12 Umngcele wangentshonalanga likhumbi loLwandle oLukhulu. Le yiyo imingcele eyayigombolozele abantu bakoJuda usendo lunye ngalunye.

Pea ko hono ngataʻanga ki lulunga ko e Tahi Lahi, mo hono matātahi ʻo ia. Ko hono ngataʻanga eni ʻoe fānau ʻa Siuta ʻo fakatakamilo ʻo fakatatau ki honau ngaahi faʻahinga.

13 Njengokulaya kukaThixo kuye, uJoshuwa wanika uKhalebi indodana kaJefune ingxenye eseJuda, iKhiriyathi Aribha, okutsho iHebhroni (u-Abha wayengukhokho ka-Anakhi).

Pea naʻa ne foaki kia Kelepi ko e foha ʻo Sifune hono vahe fakataha mo e fānau ʻa Siuta, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Siosiua, ʻio, ʻae kolo ʻa ʻAlipa ko e tamai ʻa ʻAnaki, ʻaia ko e kolo ko ia ko Hepeloni.

14 Esuka eHebhroni uKhalebi waxotsha ama-Anakhi amathathu abalisa uSheshayi, u-Ahimani loThalimayi abantwana baka-Anakhi.

Pea naʻe kapusi mei ai ʻe Kelepi ʻae foha ʻe toko tolu ʻo ʻAnaki, ko Sesei mo ʻEhimani mo Talimi, ko e fānau ʻa ʻAnaki.

15 Esuka lapho wahamba ehlasela abantu ababehlala eDebhiri (okwakuthiwa yiKhiriyathi-Sefa).

Pea naʻe ʻalu hake mei ai ia ki he kakai ʻo Tipa: pea ko hono hingoa ʻo Tipa ʻi muʻa ko Kesa-Sefa.

16 UKhalebi wathi, “Ngizakwendisela indodakazi yami u-Akhisa endodeni ezahlasela ithumbe iKhiriyathi-Sefa.”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Kelepi, “Ko ia ʻoku ne taaʻi ʻa Kesa-Sefa, pea lavaʻi ia, te u ʻatu kiate ia hoku ʻofefine ko ʻAkesa ke na mali.

17 U-Othiniyeli indodana kaKhenazi, umfowabo kaKhalebi, wayithumba; ngakho uKhalebi wendisela indodakazi yakhe u-Akhisa kuye.

Pea naʻe lavaʻi ia ʻe Otinili ko e foha ʻo Kenasi, ko e tokoua ʻo Kelepi: pea naʻa ne ʻatu kiate ia hono ʻofefine ko ʻAkesa ko hono uaifi.

18 Ngelinye ilanga u-Akhisa wafika ku-Othiniyeli wamkhuthaza ukuthi acele insimu kuyise. Lapho esehlile kubabhemi wakhe, uKhalebi wambuza wathi, “Kuyini engingakwenzela khona?”

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene haʻu kiate ia, naʻa ne ueʻi ia ke ne kole ʻae ngoue mei heʻene tamai: pea naʻe ʻalu hifo ia mei heʻene ʻasi; pea pehē ʻe Kelepi kiate ia, Ko e hā ho loto?

19 Waphendula wathi, “Ngicela ungenzele umusa obalulekileyo. Njengoba unginike umhlaba eNegebi, ngicela unginike lemithombo yamanzi.” Ngakho uKhalebi wamnika imithombo eyayingaphezulu leyayingaphansi.

Pea naʻa ne tali ʻo pehē, “Tuku mai ha tāpuaki; he kuo ke foaki mai ha fonua ki tonga: foaki mai ʻae ngaahi matavai foki.” Pea ne foaki kiate ia ʻae ngaahi matavai ʻi ʻolunga, mo e ngaahi matavai ʻi lalo.

20 Leli lilifa lesizwe sikaJuda ngezinsendo zaso:

Ko e tofiʻa eni ʻoe faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Siuta ʻo fakatatau ki honau ngaahi faʻahinga.

21 Amadolobho aseningizimu kwesizwe sikaJuda eNegebi ekuyeni emngceleni we-Edomi ayeyila: IKhabhizeli, i-Ederi, iJaguri,

Pea ko e ngaahi kolo ʻoe faʻahinga ʻoe fānau ʻa Siuta ʻoku hanga ki he potu ʻo ʻItomi ki tonga, ko Kapisili mo ʻEta mo Sekua.
