10 Mushure mokunge chizvarwa chake chose chasanganiswa namadzibaba acho, chimwe chizvarwa chakanga chisingazivi Jehovha kana zvaakanga aitira Israeri chakamuka.
Saa awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ no akyi no, awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ foforɔ nyiniiɛ a na wɔnnim Awurade, na wɔnkae nneɛma akɛseɛ a wayɛ ama Israel.
11 Ipapo vaIsraeri vakaita zvakaipa pamberi paJehovha uye vakashumira vanaBhaari.
Na Israelfoɔ no yɛɛ deɛ ɛnyɛ wɔ Awurade ani so, na wɔsom Baalim ahoni.
12 Vakarasa Jehovha, Mwari wamadzibaba avo, akanga avabudisa kubva muIjipiti. Vakatevera uye vakanamata vamwari vakasiyana-siyana vendudzi dzakanga dzakavapoteredza. Vakatsamwisa Jehovha,
Wɔgyaa Awurade, wɔn agyanom Onyankopɔn a ɔyii wɔn firii Misraim no. Wɔdii anyame foforɔ akyi, somm saa anyame no a ɛyɛ nnipa a wɔatwa wɔn ho ahyia no dea. Na wɔmaa Awurade bo fuiɛ.

15 Pose paienda Israeri kundorwa, ruoko rwaJehovha rwairwa navo kuti ruvakunde, sezvaakanga apika kwavari. Vakanga vari munhamo huru.
Ɛberɛ biara a Israelfoɔ bɛkɔ ɔko no, Awurade ko tia wɔn ma wɔdi nkoguo, sɛdeɛ ɔhyɛɛ bɔ no. Enti, wɔn ho hiahiaa wɔn papaapa.

20 Naizvozvo Jehovha akavatsamwira zvikuru akati, “Nemhaka yokuti rudzi urwu rwakaputsa sungano yangu yandakaita namadzitateguru avo uye vakasanditeerera,
Enti, Awurade bo fuu Israel. Ɔkaa sɛ, “Esiane sɛ saa nnipa yi abu apam a me ne wɔn agyanom yɛeɛ so, na wɔapo me mmaransɛm enti,

22 Ndichavashandisa kuti vaedze vaIsraeri, kuti ndione kuti vachachengeta here nzira yaJehovha vagofamba mairi sezvakaitwa namadzitateguru avo.”
Meyɛɛ yei de sɔɔ Israel hwɛeɛ sɛ wɔbɛtie Awurade sɛdeɛ wɔn agyanom yɛeɛ no.”
23 Jehovha akatendera ndudzi idzo kuti dzisare; haana kudzidzinga pakarepo uye haana kudziisa mumaoko aJoshua.
Ɛno enti na amma Awurade ampam aman no ntɛm so na wamma Yosua ammɛdi wɔn nyinaa so no.
