51 “Nena na wana wa Israeli uwaambie. 'Mtakapovuka mto Yorodani kuingia Kanaani,
“Tell this to the Israeli people: When you cross the Jordan [River] and enter the Canaan [region],
52 ndipo mtakapowafukuza wenyeji wote mbele yenu. Mtaziharibu sanamu zote za kuchongwa. Mtaziharibu sanamu zao za kusubu na kuharibu mahali pao pote palipoinuka.
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 Mtachukua hiyo ardhi iwe mali yenu na muishi ndani yake, kwa sababu nimewapeni hiyo nchi iwe mali yenu.
Take their land from them and start to live there, because I have given their land to you for you to own.
54 Mtairithi hiyo nchi kwa kupiga kura, kwa kufuata kila ukoo. Kwa zile koo kubwa kubwa mtawapa sehemu kubwa ya ardhi, na kwa zile koo ndogo ndogo mtawapa sehemu ndogo ya ardhi. Kura itakapoanguka kwenye kila ukoo, hiyo ardhi itakuwa mali yake. Mtairithi ardhi kufuata ukoo wa kabilla la jamaa 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 hamtawafukuza wenyeji wa nchi hiyo watoke mbele yenu, ndipo wale watu mtakaowaruhusu wakae nanyi watakapokuwa kama sindano machoni mwenu na miiba katika mbavu zenu. Watayafanya maisha yenu yawe magumu katika nchi mnayoishi.
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 Ndipo itakapotokea kuwa kile ambacho Mimi ninakusudia kufanya kwa wale watu, Nitawafanyia pia ninyi'”
And then I will punish you, as I had planned to punish them.”
