1 Yeinom ne ahemfo a wɔwɔ Asubɔnten Yordan apueeɛ fam a wɔkunkumm wɔn na wɔfaa wɔn nsase. Wɔn nsase no firi Arnon Subɔnhwa kɔsi Bepɔ Hermon so a Yordan Bɔnhwa asase a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam nyinaa ka ho.
La ngamakhosi amazwe anqotshwa ngabako-Israyeli njalo alezabelo ezathunjwa empumalanga yeJodani, kusukela eDongeni lwase-Arinoni kusiya entabeni yaseHemoni, okugoqela lonke icele langempumalanga ye-Arabha:
2 Wɔdii Amorifoɔhene Sihon a na ɔte Hesbon so. Na nʼahemman bi ne Aroer a ɛwɔ Arnon Subɔnhwa ano na ɛtene firi ne mfimfini kɔsi Asubɔnten Yabok a ɛda hɔ sɛ ɛhyeɛ ma Amorifoɔ no. Ɛnnɛ yi, Gilead fa a ɛda Asubɔnten Yabok atifi no ka ɔmantam no ho.
USihoni inkosi yama-Amori, wayebusa eHeshibhoni. Wayebusa kusukela e-Aroweri emaphethelweni oDonga lwase-Arinoni, kusukela phakathi laphakathi kodonga kusiyafika emfuleni uJabhoki, oyiwo umngcele wama-Amoni. Lokhu kwakugoqela ingxenye yeGiliyadi.
3 Ɛfiri Yordan bɔnhwa atifi a ɛbɛn Galilea ɛpo no atɔeɛ fam mpoano na ɛsiane ba anafoɔ fam bɛsi Nkyene Ɛpo, firi Bet-Yesimot kɔsi Pisga nsianeɛ so hyɛɛ Sihon ase.
Wayebusa njalo empumalanga ye-Arabha kusukela olwandle lweKhinerethi kusiyafika olwandle lwe-Arabha (uLwandle lweTswayi) kusiya eBhethi-Jeshimothi, eningizimu phansanyana kwemithezuko yasePhisiga:
4 Basanhene Og a ɔtwa Refaimfoɔ to no tenaa Astarot ne Edrei asase so.
Lelizwe lika-Ogi inkosi yaseBhashani, omunye wamaRefayi okucina owayebusa e-Ashitharothi le-Edreyi.
5 Na ɔdii ɔhene wɔ ɔman a ɛfiri Bepɔ Hermon so de kɔsi Saleka wɔ atifi fam ne Basan a ɛwɔ apueeɛ fam nyinaa, de kɔ atɔeɛ fam kɔsi Gesurfoɔ ne Maakatfoɔ ahemman ɛhyeɛ so. Gilead fa a ɛwɔ atifi fam, ne ɛfa a aka a na ɛwɔ Hesbonhene Sihon asase mu no ka ho.
Wabusa eNtabeni yaseHemoni, eSalekha, iBhashani yonke kusiya emngceleni wabantu beGeshuri leMahakhathi, lengxenye yeGiliyadi kusiya emngceleni kaSihoni inkosi yeHeshibhoni.
6 Na Mose a ɔyɛ Awurade ɔsomfoɔ no ne Israelfoɔ atɔre ɔhene Sihon ne ɔhene Og nkurɔfoɔ ase. Mose de wɔn asase maa Ruben ne Gad mmusuakuo ne Manase abusua fa no.
UMosi inceku kaThixo, labako-Israyeli babanqoba. UMosi inceku kaThixo wanika ilizwe labo abakoRubheni labakoGadi lengxenye yesizwana sakoManase ukuthi libe ngelabo.
7 Saa ahemfo a wɔn din didi soɔ yi na Yosua ne Israel akodɔm dii wɔn so wɔ Yordan atɔeɛ fam firi Baal-Gad wɔ Lebanon bɔnhwa mu de kɔsi Halak bepɔ a ɛkɔsi Seir no. Na Yosua de asase no maa Israel mmusuakuo no sɛ wɔn agyapadeɛ,
