While we were there on the plains of the Moab [region] near the Jordan [River], across from Jericho, Yahweh spoke to Moses/me. He said,
51 “Sema na Waisraeli uwaambie: ‘Mtakapovuka Mto Yordani kuingia Kanaani,
“Tell this to the Israeli people: When you cross the Jordan [River] and enter the Canaan [region],
52 wafukuzeni wakazi wote wa nchi iliyo mbele yenu. Haribuni sanamu zao zote za kuchongwa, na sanamu zilizotengenezwa kwa kuyeyusha chuma, na kupabomoa mahali pao pa ibada.
you must force all the people who live there to leave. Destroy all their carved statues and all their idols made of metal. Wreck all the places where they worship [their idols].
53 Mtaimiliki nchi hiyo na kukaa huko, kwa kuwa nimewapeni ninyi kuimiliki.
Take their land from them and start to live there, because I have given their land to you for you to own.
54 Mtaigawanya nchi hiyo kwa kupiga kura, kufuatana na koo zenu. Kwa kundi kubwa zaidi toa urithi mkubwa zaidi, na kwa kundi dogo zaidi urithi mdogo zaidi. Chochote kinachowaangukia kwa kura kitakuwa chao. Mtaigawanya nchi kufuatana na makabila ya babu zenu.
“Divide up the land by throwing (lots/small stones which have been marked) [to decide which group will get which area]. Give the larger areas to the groups that have more people, and give the smaller areas to the groups that have fewer people. Each tribe will receive its own land.
55 “‘Lakini kama hamkuwafukuza wenyeji wakaao katika nchi hiyo, wale mtakaowaruhusu wabaki watakuwa kama sindano kwenye macho yenu na miiba kwenu kila upande. Watawasumbua katika nchi mtakayoishi.
If you do not force the people who live there to leave, they will cause you to have much trouble. They will be like sharp hooks in your eyes, and like thorns in your sides. And they will bring trouble to you, in that land where you will be living.
56 Kisha nitawatenda ninyi kile ambacho nimepanga kuwatenda wao.’”
And then I will punish you, as I had planned to punish them.”
