< UJoshuwa 4 >
1 Kwasekusithi lapho isizwe sonke sesiqede ukuchapha iJordani, iNkosi yakhuluma kuJoshuwa isithi:
Pütkül hǝlⱪ Iordan dǝryasidin tamamǝn ɵtüp bolƣanda, Pǝrwǝrdigar Yǝxuaƣa sɵz ⱪilip: —
2 Zithathele amadoda alitshumi lambili ebantwini, indoda ibenye kuleso lalesosizwe,
Hǝlⱪning arisidin on ikki adǝmni talliƣin, ⱨǝr ⱪǝbilidin birdin adǝm bolsun,
3 uwalaye uthi: Zithatheleni okuvela lapha phakathi kweJordani kuleyondawo, lapho obekumi khona inyawo zabapristi ziqinile, amatshe alitshumi lambili, liwathwale lichaphe lawo, liwabeke endaweni yokulala lapho elizalala khona ebusuku.
ularƣa: — Silǝr Iordan dǝryasining otturisidin, kaⱨinlarning putliri mǝzmut turƣan jaydin on ikki taxni elip, ularni kɵtürüp kelip ɵzünglar bügün keqǝ bargaⱨ tikidiƣan yǝrgǝ ⱪoyunglar, degin, dedi.
4 UJoshuwa wasebiza amadoda alitshumi lambili ayewalungisile ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli, indoda yabanye kuleso lalesosizwe.
Xuning bilǝn Yǝxua ⱨǝr ⱪǝbilidin birdin adǝmni, yǝni Israillar arisidin talliƣan on ikki kixini qaⱪirdi;
5 UJoshuwa wasesithi kuwo: Dlulani phambi komtshokotsho weNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu, lingene phakathi kweJordani, lizithathele, lowo lalowo, ilitshe elilodwa, aletshate ehlombe, njengokwenani lezizwe zabantwana bakoIsrayeli,
andin Yǝxua ularƣa: — Silǝr Iordan dǝryasining otturisiƣa qüxüp Pǝrwǝrdigar Hudayinglarning ǝⱨdǝ sanduⱪining aldiƣa berip, Israilning on ikki ⱪǝbilisining saniƣa mas ⱨalda birdin taxni elip mürǝnglǝrgǝ ⱪoyunglar.
6 ukuze lokhu kube yisiboniso phakathi kwenu. Nxa abantwana benu bebuza kusasa besithi: Ayini lamatshe kini?
Qünki bu aranglarda bir ǝslǝtmǝ-bǝlgǝ bolidu; kǝlgüsidǝ baliliringlar: — Bu taxlarning silǝrgǝ nemǝ ǝⱨmiyiti bar? — dǝp sorap ⱪalsa, silǝr ularƣa: —
7 Lizabatshela-ke: Ngoba amanzi eJordani aqunywa phambi komtshotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi. Lapho uchapha iJordani, amanzi eJordani aqunywa. Ngakho lamatshe azakuba yisikhumbuzo ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli kuze kube nininini.
Iordan dǝryasining suliri Pǝrwǝrdigarning ǝⱨdǝ sanduⱪining aldida üzüp ⱪoyuldi; [ǝⱨdǝ sanduⱪi] Iordan dǝryasidin ɵtküzülgǝndǝ Iordan dǝryasining suliri üzüp ⱪoyuldi; xunga bu taxlar Israillarƣa mǝnggülük bir ǝslǝtmǝ-bǝlgǝ bolidu, — dǝp jawap berisilǝr.
8 Labantwana bakoIsrayeli benza njalo njengokulaya kukaJoshuwa, bathatha amatshe alitshumi lambili phakathi kweJordani, njengokutsho kweNkosi kuJoshuwa, ngokwenani lezizwe zabantwana bakoIsrayeli; bawathwala bachapha lawo, baya endaweni lapho abalala khona, bawabeka khona.
Xuning bilǝn Israillar Yǝxua ularƣa buyruƣandǝk ⱪildi. Pǝrwǝrdigarning Yǝxuaƣa ⱪilƣan ǝmri boyiqǝ Israilning ⱪǝbililirining saniƣa muwapiⱪ Iordan dǝryasining otturisidin on ikki taxni elip, ⱪonidiƣan jayƣa kɵtürüp berip, xu yǝrdǝ ⱪoyup ⱪoydi.
9 UJoshuwa wasemisa amatshe alitshumi lambili phakathi kweJordani endaweni lapho inyawo zabapristi ababethwele umtshokotsho wesivumelwano ezazimi khona. Njalo asekhona lapho kuze kube lamuhla.
Buningdin baxⱪa Yǝxua Iordan dǝryasining otturisida ǝⱨdǝ sanduⱪini kɵtürgǝn kaⱨinlarning putliri mustǝⱨkǝm turƣan jayda on ikki taxni tiklǝp ⱪoydi. Bu taxlar bolsa bügüngiqǝ xu yǝrdǝ turidu.
10 Ngoba abapristi ababethwele umtshokotsho bema phakathi kweJordani kwaze kwaphela yonke into iNkosi eyayimlaye yona uJoshuwa ukuyitshela abantu, njengakho konke uMozisi ayekulaye uJoshuwa. Labantu baphangisa bachapha.
Pǝrwǝrdigar Yǝxuaƣa hǝlⱪⱪǝ eytixⱪa tapiliƣan barliⱪ ixlar orunlanƣuqilik, yǝni Musa ǝslidǝ Yǝxuaƣa buyruƣanlirining ⱨǝmmisi bǝja kǝltürülgüqǝ, ǝⱨdǝ sanduⱪini kɵtürgǝn kaⱨinlar Iordan dǝryasining otturisida tohtap turdi. Hǝlⱪ xu yǝrdin tezdin ɵtüwatatti.
11 Kwasekusithi bonke abantu sebeqedile ukuchapha, umtshokotsho weNkosi wachapha, labapristi phambi kwabantu.
Xundaⱪ boldiki, barliⱪ hǝlⱪ tamamǝn ɵtüp bolƣanda, Pǝrwǝrdigarning [ǝⱨdǝ] sanduⱪi bilǝn kaⱨinlar hǝlⱪning aldidin ɵtti.
12 Njalo abantwana bakoRubeni labantwana bakoGadi lengxenye yesizwe sakoManase bachapha behlomile phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, njengokubatshela kukaMozisi.
Rubǝnlǝr bilǝn Gadlar wǝ Manassǝⱨning yerim ⱪǝbilisidikilǝrmu Musaning ularƣa buyruƣinidǝk sǝptǝ tüzüp Israillarning aldida dǝryadin ɵtti.
13 Phose izinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amane behlomele impi, bachapha phambi kweNkosi ukuya empini, emagcekeni eJeriko.
jǝmiy bolup ⱪiriⱪ mingqǝ ⱪorallanƣan kixi Pǝrwǝrdigarning aldidin ɵtüp, Yeriho tüzlǝngliklirigǝ kelip, jǝng ⱪilixⱪa tǝyyar turdi.
14 Ngalolosuku iNkosi yamkhulisa uJoshuwa emehlweni kaIsrayeli wonke, njalo bamesaba njengalokhu babemesaba uMozisi insuku zonke zempilo yakhe.
U küni Pǝrwǝrdigar Yǝxuani pütkül Israilning nǝziridǝ qong ⱪildi; ular uning pütün ɵmridǝ Musadin ⱪorⱪⱪandǝk uningdinmu ⱪorⱪti.
15 INkosi yasikhuluma kuJoshuwa isithi:
Pǝrwǝrdigar Yǝxuaƣa sɵz ⱪilip: —
16 Laya abapristi abathwala umtshokotsho wobufakazi ukuthi bakhuphuke eJordani.
Ⱨɵküm-guwaⱨliⱪ sanduⱪini kɵtürgǝn kaⱨinlarƣa: — Iordan dǝryasidin qiⱪinglar, dǝp buyruƣin, dedi.
17 UJoshuwa wasebalaya abapristi esithi: Khuphukani eJordani.
Xunga Yǝxua kaⱨinlarƣa: — Iordan dǝryasidin qiⱪinglar, dǝp buyrudi.
18 Kwasekusithi lapho abapristi ababethwele umtshokotsho wesivumelwano seNkosi sebekhuphukile phakathi kweJordani, lengaphansi yenyawo zabapristi isiphakanyiselwe emhlabathini owomileyo, amanzi eJordani abuyela endaweni yawo, ahamba njengamandulo aphuphuma enkunjini zonke zayo.
Xundaⱪ boldiki, Pǝrwǝrdigarning ǝⱨdǝ sanduⱪini kɵtürgǝn kaⱨinlar Iordan dǝryasining otturisidin qiⱪip, putlirining tapini ⱪuruⱪluⱪni dǝssixi bilǝnla, Iordan dǝryasining süyi yǝnǝ ɵz jayiƣa ⱪaytip kelip, awwalⱪidǝk ikki ⱪirƣiⱪiƣiqǝ texip eⱪixⱪa baxlidi.
19 Labantu bakhuphuka besuka eJordani ngolwetshumi lwenyanga yokuqala, bamisa inkamba eGiligali ephethelweni lempumalanga yeJeriko.
Hǝlⱪ bolsa birinqi ayning oninqi küni Iordan dǝryasidin ɵtüp, Yerihoning xǝrⱪining ǝng qǝt tǝripidiki Gilgalƣa kelip qedirgaⱨ tikti.
20 Lalawomatshe alitshumi lambili abawathatha eJordani uJoshuwa wawamisa eGiligali.
Ular Iordan dǝryasidin alƣaq kǝlgǝn on ikki taxni bolsa, Yǝxua ularni Gilgalda tiklǝp ⱪoydi;
21 Wakhuluma kubantwana bakoIsrayeli esithi: Nxa abantwana benu bebuza kusasa kuboyise besithi: Ayini lamatshe?
andin Israillarƣa: — Keyin baliliringlar ɵz atiliridin: — Bu taxlarning ǝⱨmiyiti nemǝ, dǝp sorisa,
22 Lizabazisa-ke abantwana benu lisithi: UIsrayeli wayichapha le iJordani emhlabathini owomileyo.
silǝr baliliringlarƣa mundaⱪ uⱪturup ⱪoyunglar: — «Israil ilgiri ⱪuruⱪ yǝrni dǝssǝp Iordan dǝryasidin ɵtkǝnidi;
23 Ngoba iNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu yenza amanzi eJordani atsha phambi kwenu laze lachapha, njengokwenza kweNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu kuLwandle oluBomvu eyalomisa phambi kwethu saze sachapha,
qünki Pǝrwǝrdigar Hudayinglar biz Ⱪizil Dengizdin ɵtküqǝ aldimizda uning sulirini ⱪurutup bǝrgǝndǝk, Pǝrwǝrdigar Hudayinglar silǝr ɵtküqǝ aldinglarda Iordan dǝryasining süyini ⱪurutup bǝrdi;
24 ukuze zonke izizwe zomhlaba zazi isandla seNkosi, ukuthi silamandla, ukuze liyesabe iNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu zonke izinsuku.
yǝr yüzidiki barliⱪ ǝllǝr Pǝrwǝrdigarning ⱪolining ⱪanqilik küqlüklükini bilsun, xundaⱪla silǝrning Pǝrwǝrdigar Hudayinglardin ⱨǝmixǝ ⱪorⱪuxunglar üqün U xundaⱪ ⱪildi» — dedi.
