1 Kisha akanionyesha Yoshua, kuhani mkuu, akiwa amesimama mbele ya malaika wa Bwana, naye Shetani amesimama upande wake wa kuume ili amshtaki.
Hanki ana ankeromo'a ugagota pristi ne' Josua'a Ra Anumzamofo ankeromofo avuga oti'negeno naveri hu'ne. Hagi vahe'mofoma huhaviza huno, e'ina hu'ne amana hu'nema nehia ne' Sata'a ana ankeromofona azantamaga kaziga oti'neno, Josuana keaga hunte'naku retro huno mani'ne.
2 Bwana akamwambia Shetani, “Bwana akukemee Shetani! Bwana, ambaye ameichagua Yerusalemu, akukemee! Je, mtu huyu siyo kijinga kinachowaka kilichonyakuliwa kwenye moto?”
Ra Anumzamo'a Satankura huno, Ra Anumzamo'a Sataga keonke kema nehanana, havige nehane huno nehie. Tamage, Ra Anumzana Jerusalemi kuma'ma huhampri'nea Ra Anumzamo'a ama ne'ma keagama huntanana eri atroe huno kazeri ko'nerino anage hu'ne, Ama nera tevefinti'ma tevema tagisga nehiaza hu'noe.
3 Wakati huu, Yoshua alikuwa amevaa nguo chafu alipokuwa amesimama mbele ya malaika.
Josua kukenamo'a tusi pehanage hu'negeno ana ankeromofo avuga oti'ne.
4 Malaika akawaambia wale waliokuwa wamesimama mbele yake, “Mvueni hizo nguo zake chafu.” Kisha akamwambia Yoshua, “Tazama, nimeiondoa dhambi yako, nami nitakuvika mavazi ya kitajiri.”
Hagi ana ankeromo'a mago'a ankerontamima anante'ma oti kagi'naza ankeroramina amanage huno zamasami'ne, pehanage kukena'a hate atreho, huno nehuno rukrahe huno Josuankura amanage hu'ne, Kumika'a atrenegante'na marerirfa kukena rehankre kantoe huno hu'ne.
5 Kisha nikasema, “Mvike kilemba kilicho safi kichwani mwake.” Kwa hiyo wakamvika kilemba safi kichwani na kumvika yale mavazi mengine, wakati malaika wa Bwana akiwa amesimama karibu.
Anante nagra amanage hu'noe, atrege'za anuntera agru tavravenu vafoa anakinteho hu'na huge'za, agru hu'nea tavrave pristi vahe'mo'zama zamanunte'ma vafoma negiza tavrave anuntera kinente'za, kasefa za'za kukena eri'za eme hunte'naze. Ana'ma hazageno'a Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo'a tavaonte otino mani'ne.
6 Malaika wa Bwana akamwamuru Yoshua:
Anante ana ankeromo'a amanage huno Josuana avumro nanekea asami'ne.
7 “Hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote: ‘Ikiwa utakwenda katika njia zangu na kushika masharti yangu, basi utaitawala nyumba yangu na kuwa na amri juu ya nyua zangu, nami nitakupa nafasi miongoni mwa hawa wasimamao hapa.
Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie, kagrama Nagri navu'nava'ma nevaririnka nagrama hanua kema amage'ma antesanke'na, nagra hu izo hugantenugenka noni'ane nonkumani'anena kegava nehunka, amama oti'naza vahe amunompina hu izo huganta'nena vano hugahane.
8 “‘Sikiliza, ee Yoshua kuhani mkuu, pamoja na wenzako walioketi mbele yako, ambao ni watu walio ishara ya mambo yatakayokuja: Ninakwenda kumleta mtumishi wangu, Tawi.
Ugagota pristi ne' Josuagane, maka ruga'a pristi vahe'ma kavugama mani'nazamotanena menina antahiho, tamagra henkama fore'ma hania zantmimofo avameza mani'naze. Nagra eri'za vahe'ni'amofo agi'a Zafa Azankunare hu'neanki'na avre'na egahue.
9 Tazama, jiwe nililoliweka mbele ya Yoshua! Kuna macho saba juu ya jiwe lile moja, nami nitachora maandishi juu yake,’ asema Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote, ‘nami nitaiondoa dhambi ya nchi hii kwa siku moja.
Kama go, mago have 7ni'a avurga hunte'nea have Josua avugama ante'noa havere avona krenente'na, ama mopafima me'nea kefo avu'ava zana magoke knafi eri atregahue, huno Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzamo'a hu'ne.
10 “‘Katika siku hiyo kila mmoja wenu atamwalika jirani yake akae chini ya mzabibu wake na mtini wake,’ asema Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote.”
Ana zupa mago magomota tava'ontamire'ma nemani'namokizmia ke hanage'za tamagri grepi nofimofo turunapine, fiki zafamofo turunapi emanigahaze.
