UJoshuwa 18

1 Inhlangano yonke-ke yabantwana bakoIsrayeli yabuthana eShilo, yamisa khona ithente lenhlangano. Lelizwe lalehliselwe phansi phambi kwabo.

Kanyakla duto mag jo-Israel nochokore Shilo ma giguro Hemb Romo kanyo. Pinyno nobedo e bwo lochgi,

2 Kwasekusele phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli izizwe eziyisikhombisa ezazingabelwanga ilifa lazo.

makmana ne pod nitiere dhout Israel abiriyo mane pod ok oyudo girkeni margi.

3 UJoshuwa wasesithi kubantwana bakoIsrayeli: Koze kube nini lidonda ukuyakudla ilifa lelizwe iNkosi uNkulunkulu waboyihlo elinike lona?

Omiyo Joshua nowachone jo-Israel niya, “Ubiro rito nyaka karangʼo kapok uchako kawo mwandu mar piny mane Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach wuoneu, asemiyou?

4 Zinikeni amadoda amathathu ngesizwe, ngiwathume, asukume ahambe adabule ilizwe, alibhale ngokwelifa lazo, abuye kimi.

Yieruru ji adek koa e dhoot ka dhoot. Abiro oorogi mondo gidhi ginon pinyno kendo gindik malongʼo kuom pinyno, kaluwore gi pok mar ngʼato ka ngʼato. Bangʼe, to gidwog ira.

5 Azalehlukanisa libe yizabelo eziyisikhombisa; uJuda uzahlala emngceleni wakhe eningizimu, labendlu kaJosefa bahlale emngceleni wabo enyakatho.

Nyaka upog pinyni e migepe abiriyo. Jo-Juda nyaka dongʼ kargi man yo milambo kendo joka Josef bende odongʼ kargi man yo nyandwat.

6 Lani lizabhala ilizwe ngezigaba eziyisikhombisa, beseliletha kimi lapha, ukuthi ngiliphosele inkatho lapha phambi kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wethu.

Bangʼ ka usendiko malongʼo kuom migepe abiriyo mar pinyno, to ukelnagiuru kae kendo abiro pogonugi gi ombulu e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa.

7 Ngoba amaLevi kawalasabelo phakathi kwenu, ngoba ubupristi beNkosi buyilifa labo. LoGadi loRubeni lengxenye yesizwe sakoManase sebethethe ilifa labo ngaphetsheya kweJordani empumalanga, uMozisi inceku yeNkosi eyabanika lona.

Kata kamano, jo-Lawi to ok noyud pok e dieru, nikech tichgi mar dolo ne Jehova Nyasaye e girkeni margi. To Gad, Reuben kod nus mar dhood Manase, to oseyudo girkeni margi e bath aora Jordan ma yo wuok chiengʼ nikech Musa jatich Jehova Nyasaye nosemiyogi.”

8 Asesuka amadoda ahamba. UJoshuwa wawalaya ahambayo ukubhala ilizwe esithi: Hambani lidabule ilizwe lilibhale, libuyele kimi, ukuze ngiliphosele inkatho lapha phambi kweNkosi eShilo.

E kinde mane jogi owuok mondo gidhi ginon piny, Joshua nomiyogi chik niya, “Dhiuru kendo utim nonro malongʼo mar pinyni kendo undik gik moko duto muyudo e iye. Bangʼe dwoguru ira kendo abiro miyou pok maru Shilo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.”

9 Ngakho amadoda ahamba adabula phakathi kwelizwe, alibhala ngemizi ngezigaba eziyisikhombisa egwalweni; asebuya kuJoshuwa enkambeni eShilo.

Omiyo jogo nowuok modhi koluwo dier piny tir. Negindiko gigo duto mane giyudo e pinyno e kitabu, e dala ka dala, e migepe abiriyo kendo mi gidwogo ir Joshua e kambi man Shilo.

10 UJoshuwa wasebaphosela inkatho eShilo phambi kweNkosi; uJoshuwa wasebabela lapho ilizwe abantwana bakoIsrayeli ngokwezigaba zabo.
