2 UMozisi inceku yami usefile; ngakho-ke sukuma uchaphe le iJordani, wena labo bonke lababantu, liye elizweni engibanika lona, ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli.
“Kalhacha Mose athitai, hijeh chun nangma kipatnin lang hiche Jordan hi galkaijin, nangle hiche mipiho hin Keiman Israel chate kapehna gam hi jonlut tauvin.
3 Yonke indawo lapho ingaphansi yonyawo lwenu ezanyathela khona ngilinike yona, njengokutsho kwami kuMozisi.

4 Kusukela enkangala lale iLebhanoni kuze kufike emfuleni omkhulu, umfula iYufrathi, ilizwe lonke lamaHethi, njalo kufike elwandle olukhulu lapho okutshona khona ilanga, kuzakuba ngumngcele wenu.
Gamthip gam le Lebanon gamma vadunglen changgei, Eupharates vadung, Hit mite gampumpi chuleh nisa lhumna lang twikhanglen changgei nagam’u hiding ahi.
5 Kakulamuntu ozakuma phambi kwakho zonke izinsuku zempilo yakho. Njengalokhu ngangiloMozisi, ngizakuba lawe; kangiyikukutshiya, kangiyikukulahla.
Nahinkho lhumkeijuva namasang uva koimacha dingjoulou ding, Mose kana dinpi banga nangho jong kadinpi jingdiu, kadalhah louheldiu chuleh kanungsun louhel ding nahiuve.
6 Qina, ume isibindi, ngoba wena uzakwenza lababantu badle ilifa lelizwe engalifungela oyise ukubanika lona.
Hatninlang hangin, hiche mite hi pehdinga apu apateu kanateppeh gamchu agoulo diuva nahoppeh ding ahi.
7 Kuphela qina, ube lesibindi esikhulu, ukugcina ukwenza ngokomlayo wonke uMozisi inceku yami akulaya wona; ungaphambuki kuwo uye ngakwesokunene loba ngakwesokhohlo, ukuze uphumelele loba ngaphi lapho oya khona.
Hatninlang hangpou pouvin, Kalhacha Mose kanapeh danthu jouse nanit jouna dingin, hichea konhin jetlang hihen veiling hijongleh kiheimang hihbeh’in, chutileh nachena channa nakhantou theiding ahi.
8 Ugwalo lwalumlayo lungasuki emlonyeni wakho, kodwa uzindle kuwo emini lebusuku, ukuze uqaphele ukwenza njengakho konke okubhaliweyo kulo, ngoba khona uzakwenza indlela yakho iphumelele, ubusuphumelela.
Hiche danthubu hi, nakamma kon mangthah louhel ding, amavang asun ajanna nageljoh ding, akijih dungjuija hi nachon jingdiu ahi. Chitilebou nakhantou ding chuleh nalolhin teiding'u ahi.
9 Kangikulayanga yini? Qina, ume isibindi; ungesabi, ungatshaywa luvalo, ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ilawe loba ngaphi lapho oya khona.
Keiman thupeh kahinpeh louva nabol ham? Hatninlang hangin, kicha hihbeh’in, tijatna jong neihih in ajeh chu na Pakai na Pathennin nachena chan’uva nalhonpi jing dingu ahi,” ati.
10 UJoshuwa waselaya izinduna zabantu, esithi:
Chujouchun, Josuha’in mipi lamkaiho chu thu apen hitin aseije,
11 Dabulani phakathi kwenkamba lilaye abantu lithi: Zilungiseleni umphako, ngoba kusesezinsuku ezintathu lizachapha le iJordani, ukuze lingene lidle ilifa lelizwe iNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu elinika lona ukuthi lidle ilifa lalo.
“Ponbuh sunga khun cheuvin lang mipiho khu anehdiu akigot toh dingun gaseipeh’un, ajeh chu nithum sunga hi Jordan luipi khu nagalkaijuva Pakai na Pathen in napeh’u gamkhu galotauvin.
12 UJoshuwa wasekhuluma kwabakoRubeni labakoGadi lengxenye yesizwe sakoManase esithi:
Chuleh Reuben phungleh Gad phung chuleh Mannasseh phung akehkhat ho kommachun Joshua’n hitin aseije,
13 Khumbulani ilizwi uMozisi inceku yeNkosi alilaya ngalo esithi: INkosi uNkulunkulu wenu iyaliphumuza, ilinika lelilizwe.
Pakai lhacha Mose’n nakom uva aseichu sumil hih’un, Pakai na Pathennun nakicholdosah tauvin, chuleh hiche gamhi napeh’u ahitai.
14 Omkenu, abantwanyana benu, lezifuyo zenu kuzahlala elizweni uMozisi alinika lona nganeno kweJordani; kodwa lina lizachapha lihlomile phambi kwabafowenu, wonke amaqhawe alamandla, libasize,

15 iNkosi ize iphumuze abafowenu njengani, labo njalo badle ilifa lelizwe iNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu ebanika lona. Lizabuyela-ke elizweni lelifa lenu, lidle ilifa lalo, uMozisi inceku yeNkosi alinika lona, nganeno kweJordani, empumalanga.
Pakaiyin nangho gam napeh banguva amaho jong alodiu gam apeh kahseuva nakithopidiu ahi. Chujouteng leh nahung kileuva Pakai lhacha Mose’n napehnao Jordan solam nagam uva nachendiu ahi.
16 Basebemphendula uJoshuwa besithi: Konke osilaya khona sizakwenza, laloba ngaphi lapho ozasithuma khona sizahamba.
Hitichun amahon Joshua chu adonbutnun, “Ipi hileh nangin neithupeh jouseu chu kaboldiu, chuleh neisol solnauva chu kache jengdiu ahi atiuve”.
17 Njengakho konke esamlalela uMozisi ngakho, ngokunjalo sizakulalela. Kuphela iNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho ibe lawe njengoba yayiloMozisi.
“Keihon Mose thu kanangai bang banguva chu imalam jousea nangma thujong kangai diu ahi. Pakai na Pathen chun Mose ana umpi bang bangin nangjong naumpi jinghen,” atiuve.
18 Wonke umuntu ozavukela umlomo wakho, angalaleli amazwi akho, kukho konke omlaya khona, uzabulawa. Kuphela qina, ume isibindi.
“Koi hileh nangma thupeh jouse chu nitlouva aumma, nahindouva aumpoupou leh thadoh jengding ahi. Hatninlang hangpou pouvin”.
