3 ubusubatshela ukuthi bathathe amatshe alitshumi lambili phakathi laphakathi kweJodani kusukela lapho okwakumi khona abaphristi, beseliwathwala liwabeke endaweni elizalala kuyo lamuhla ebusuku.”

8 Ngakho-ke abako-Israyeli benza njengokulaya kukaJoshuwa. Bathatha amatshe alitshumi lambili phakathi laphakathi kweJodani, kusiya ngenani lezizwana zako-Israyeli, njengokulaywa kukaJoshuwa nguThixo; basebewathwalela ezihonqweni zabo lapho abafika bawabeka khona phansi.

9 UJoshuwa wamisa amatshe alitshumi lambili ayekade ephakathi laphakathi kweJodani, endaweni lapho abaphristi ababethwele umtshokotsho wesivumelwano abafika bema khona njalo lokhu ekhonapho kuze kube lamhlanje.
Ac Joshua el oayapa oakiya eot singoul luo ke infulwen Infacl Jordan, yen ma mwet tol su us Tuptup in Wuleang elos tuh tu we ah, ac eot inge oasr na we nu misenge.
10 Abaphristi ababethwele umtshokotsho baqhubeka bemi phakathi kweJodani abantu baze baqeda konke uThixo ayekulaye uJoshuwa, njengokuqondiswa kukaJoshuwa nguMosi. Abantu bedlula ngokuphangisa

Ac mukul ke sruf lal Reuben, ac sruf lal Gad, ac tafu sruf lal Manasseh, elos us mwe mweun ac fahsr meet liki mwet uh, oana ke Moses el tuh sapkin nu selos.
13 Abantu abaphose bafike kunkulungwane ezingamatshumi amane ababehlomele impi bachapha phambi kukaThixo besiya emagcekeni eJerikho ukuyakulwa impi.
Apkuran in tausin angngaul pisen mwet su akola nu ke mweun pa utyak ye mutun LEUM GOD nu yen tupasrpasr sisken acn Jericho.
14 Ngalelolanga uThixo waphakamisa uJoshuwa emehlweni abo bonke abako-Israyeli; njalo bamhlonipha okwempilo yakhe yonke, njengoba babehloniphe uMosi.

15 UThixo wathi kuJoshuwa,
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua,
16 “Laya abaphristi abathwele umtshokotsho woBufakazi bakhuphuke baphume eJodani.”
“Fahkang nu sin mwet tol su us Tuptup in Wuleang tuh elos in utyak liki Infacl Jordan.”
17 Ngakho uJoshuwa walaya abaphristi wathi, “Phumani phakathi kweJodani.”
Na Joshua el oru oana.
18 Abaphristi baphuma emfuleni bethwele umtshokotsho wesivumelwano sikaThixo. Bonela ukunyathela umhlabathi owomileyo amanzi eJodani ahle abuyela endaweni yawo, ageleza okomfula ogcweleyo njengakuqala.
Ouinge ke pacl se mwet tol elos tufahna sroak liki infacl ah nu finmes ah, na kof ke infacl ah sifilpa soror ac sronoti oana meet ah.
19 Ngelanga letshumi enyangeni yakuqala abantu basuka eJodani bayamisa izihonqo eGiligali emngceleni ongempumalanga yeJerikho.
Mwet uh elos tuh fahsr sasla Infacl Jordan ke len aksingoul in malem se meet, ac elos tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos in acn Gilgal, kutulap in Jericho.
20 UJoshuwa wamisa amatshe alitshumi ayethethwe phakathi kweJodani eGiligali.
Na eot singoul luo ma elos tuh us liki Infacl Jordan, Joshua el oakiya in acn Gilgal.
21 Wakhuluma kwabako-Israyeli wathi, “Kwelizayo nxa izizukulwane zenu zingabuza abazali bazo zisithi, ‘Amatshe la atshoni?’
Ac el fahk nu sin mwet Israel, “In pacl fahsru, tulik nutuwos fin siyuk suwos lah mea kalmen eot inge,
22 Kumele libatshele ukuthi ‘Abako-Israyeli bachapha uJodani emhlabathini owomileyo!’
na kowos fah srumun nu selos, ke pacl se mwet Israel tuh fahsr sasla Infacl Jordan elos fahsr ke acn pao.
23 Ngoba uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu womisa umfula uJodani phambi kwenu laze lachapha. UThixo uNkulunkulu wenu wenza kuJodani lokho akwenza oLwandle Olubomvu aze alomise phambi kwethu saze sachapha sonke.

24 Wenza lokhu ukuze abantu bonke bomhlaba bakwazi ukuthi isandla sikaThixo silamandla lokuthi lihlale limesaba uThixo uNkulunkulu wenu.”
