6 Joshua akati kuvaprista, “Simudzai areka yesungano mutungamirire vanhu.” Naizvozvo vakaisimudza vakatungamirira vanhu.

7 Zvino Jehovha akati kuna Joshua, “Nhasi ndichatanga kukusimudzira pamberi pavaIsraeri vose, kuitira kuti vazive kuti ndinewe sezvandaiva naMozisi.
And the Lord seide to Josue, To dai Y schal bigynne to enhaunse thee bifor al Israel, that thei wite, that as Y was with Moises, so Y am also with thee.
8 Taurira vaprista vanotakura areka yesungano uti: ‘Kana masvika panotangira mvura yeJorodhani, munofanira kupinda momira muJorodhani.’”
Forsothe comaunde thou to preestis, that beren the arke of bond of pees, and seie thou to hem, Whanne ye han entrid in to a part of the watir of Jordan, stonde ye therynne.

12 Naizvozvo, sarudzai varume gumi navaviri kubva kumarudzi avaIsraeri, mumwe chete kubva kurudzi rumwe norumwe.
Make ye redi twelue men of the twelue lynagis of Israel, bi ech lynage o man.
13 Uye vaprista vanotakura areka yaJehovha, Ishe wenyika yose, pavanongotsika netsoka dzavo muJorodhani, mvura yarwo inoerera ichibva kumusoro ichamira yoita murwi.”
