< UDutheronomi 34 >
1 UMozisi wasesenyuka esuka emagcekeni akoMowabi, esiya entabeni yeNebo, engqongeni yePisiga, emaqondana leJeriko. INkosi yasimtshengisa ilizwe lonke, iGileyadi kuze kube koDani,
UMosi wasekhwela eNtabeni yaseNebho evelela emagcekeni eMowabi esiya phezu kwePhisiga, ngaphetsheya malungana leJerikho. Kukhonale uThixo amtshengisa khona ilizwe lonke, kusukela eGiliyadi kusiya kwelikaDani,
2 layo yonke iNafithali, lelizwe lakoEfrayimi, leManase, lelizwe lonke lakoJuda, kwaze kwaba selwandle lokucina,
lonke elikaNafithali, ilizwe lika-Efrayimi lelikaManase, lonke ilizwe likaJuda kusiyafika olwandle olungentshonalanga,
3 leningizimu, legceke lesigodi seJeriko, umuzi wamalala, kwaze kwaba seZowari.
iNegebi kanye lomhlaba wonke osuka eSigodini seJerikho, iDolobho laMalala, kusiya kude khonale eZowari.
4 INkosi yasisithi kuye: Leli yilizwe engalifungela uAbrahama, uIsaka, loJakobe ngisithi: Ngizalinika inzalo yakho. Sengikwenze walibona ngamehlo akho, kodwa kawuyikuchaphela kilo.
Ngakho uThixo wathi kuye, “Leli yilo ilizwe engathembisa ngesifungo u-Abhrahama, u-Isaka loJakhobe, lapho engathi khona, ‘Ngizalinika izizukulwane zenu.’ Ngikuvumele ukuthi ulibone ngawakho amehlo, kodwa awusoze uchaphele kulo.”
5 UMozisi inceku yeNkosi wasefela khona elizweni lakoMowabi njengokomlayo weNkosi.
Ngakho uMosi inceku kaThixo wafela khonapho kwelamaMowabi, njengokwakutshiwo nguThixo.
6 Yasimngcwaba esigodini elizweni lakoMowabi maqondana leBeti-Peyori; kodwa kakulamuntu olaziyo ingcwaba lakhe kuze kube lamuhla.
Wamngcwaba eMowabi, esigodini esikhangelene leBhethi-Pheyori, kodwa kuze kube lamuhla lokhu kakho loyedwa olaziyo ingcwaba lakhe.
7 Njalo uMozisi wayeleminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amabili ekufeni kwakhe. Amehlo akhe ayengafiphalanga, lamandla akhe ayenganyamalalanga.
UMosi wayeseleminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amabili ekufeni kwakhe, ikanti amehlo akhe ayesabona kuhle njalo engakaphelelwa ngamandla.
8 Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebemlilela uMozisi emagcekeni akoMowabi insuku ezingamatshumi amathathu; zaphela-ke insuku zokukhala zokumlilela uMozisi.
Abako-Israyeli bamlilela uMosi emagcekeni aseMowabi okwensuku ezingamatshumi amathathu, kwaze kwedlula insuku zokukhala lokulila.
9 Njalo uJoshuwa indodana kaNuni wayegcwele umoya wokuhlakanipha, ngoba uMozisi wayebekile izandla zakhe phezu kwakhe. Ngakho abantwana bakoIsrayeli bamlalela, benza njengalokhu iNkosi imlayile uMozisi.
UJoshuwa indodana kaNuni wayegcwele umoya wokuhlakanipha ngoba uMosi wayembeke izandla. Ngakho abako-Israyeli bamlalela njalo benza lokho uThixo ayekulaye uMosi.
10 Kakusavelanga-ke umprofethi koIsrayeli onjengoMozisi, iNkosi eyamazi ubuso ngobuso,
Kusukela lapho, kakukabi lomunye njalo umphrofethi ko-Israyeli onjengoMosi, owayesaziwa nguThixo ubuso ngobuso,
11 ngazo zonke izibonakaliso lezimangaliso iNkosi eyamthuma ukuthi azenze elizweni leGibhithe, kuFaro lakuzo zonke inceku zakhe lelizweni lakhe lonke,
owenza zonke lezozimanga lezibonakaliso ayethunywe nguThixo ukuba ayezenza eGibhithe, kuFaro lakuzo zonke izikhulu zakhe lakulo lonke ilizwe lakhe.
12 langaso sonke lesosandla esilamandla langakho konke okwesabekayo okukhulu uMozisi akwenzayo phambi kwamehlo kaIsrayeli wonke.
Ngoba kakho oyake atshengisele amandla amakhulu kangako loba ukwenza izenzo ezesabekayo uMosi azenzayo emehlweni abo bonke abako-Israyeli.
