| 1. | Yoshuwa unyana kaNun wesusa amadoda amabini aziintlola, esithi ngasese, Hambani niye kulikhangela ilizwe neYeriko. Ahamba ke, aya endlwini yenkazana elihenyukazi, egama linguRahabhi, alala khona. |
| 2. | Kwathiwa kukumkani waseYeriko, Yabona, kufike apha ebusukunje amadoda avela koonyana bakaSirayeli, eze kuhlola eli lizwe. |
| 3. | Wathumela ukumkani waseYeriko kuRahabhi, esithi, Wakhuphe amadoda afikileyo kuwe, angenileyo endlwini yakho; kuba aze kulihlola lonke ilizwe. |
| 4. | Yawathabatha loo nkazana loo madoda omabini, yawafihla; yathi, Okunene afikile kum amadoda lawo, andazi ukuba avela ngaphi na; |
| 5. | kwathi, ukuvalwa kwesango, kwakuba mnyama, amadoda lawo aphuma; andazi ukuba aye ngaphi na amadoda lawo; wasukeleni kamsinya, ngokuba nowafumana. |
| 6. | Ke yona yayiwanyusele phezu kwendlu, yawaqhusheka ezindizeni zeflakisi, eyabe izicwangcise phezu kwendlu. |
| 7. | Amadoda awasukela ngendlela yaseYordan eya emazibukweni; lavalwa isango emveni kokuba bephumile abo basukelayo. |
| 8. | Engekalali amadoda, yenyuka yona yaya kuwo phezu kwendlu; yathi kuloo madoda, |
| 9. | Ndiyazi ukuba uYehova uninikile eli lizwe; nokuba siwelwe luqhiphuko-mbilini ngani; nokuba bathe amandla bonke abemi beli lizwe ebusweni benu. |
| 10. | Kuba sivile ukuba uYehova wawomisa amanzi oLwandle oluBomvu phambi kwenu ekuphumeni kwenu phambi kwenu ekuphumeni kwenu eYiputa; noko nakwenzayo kookumkani bobabini bama-Amori, ababephesheya kweYordan, oSihon no-Ogi, enabasingela phantsi. |
| 11. | Sivile ke, zanyibilika iintliziyo zethu, akwaba sabakho kuqina kwamxhelo mntwini ngenxa yenu; ngokuba uYehova uThixo wenu nguye uThixo emazulwini phezulu, nasehlabathini phantsi apha. |
| 12. | Kaloku khanindifungele uYehova, nithi, kuba ndinenzele inceba, niyenzele inceba nani indlu kabawo, nindinike umqondiso wenyaniso; |
| 13. | nimsindise ubawo, noma, nabanakwethu, noodade bethu, neento zonke abanazo, niyihlangule imiphefumlo yethu ekufeni. |
| 14. | Athi kuyo amadoda lawo, Umphefumlo wethu wofa esikhundleni sowenu, ukuba aniyixelanga le nto yethu; kothi ekunikweni kwethu eli lizwe nguYehova, sikwenzele inceba nenyaniso. |
| 15. | Yawahlisa ke ngentsontelo ngefestile; kuba indlu yayo yabe iseludongeni lomzi; yayihleli eludongeni. |
| 16. | Yathi kuwo, Yiyani entabeni, hleze baqubisane nani abo banisukelayo; zimelani khona iintsuku zibe ntathu, bade babuye abo banisukelayo, nandule ke ukuhamba indlela yenu. |
| 17. | Athi kuyo amadoda lawo, Soba msulwa kwesi sifungo sakho usifungise sona. |
| 18. | Uyabona, sakufika kweli lizwe, wobopha intsontelo yosinga olu lubomvu efestileni le usihlise ngayo; uhlanganisele kuwe endlwini yakho uyihlo, nonyoko, nabanakwenu, nendlu yonke kayihlo. |
| 19. | Kothi, bonke abasukuba bephuma emnyango endlwini yakho, besiya phandle, igazi labo libe phezu kwentloko yabo, sibe msulwa thina; ke bonke abasukuba bekuwe endlwini, igazi labo loba phezu kwentloko yethu, ukuba kuthe kwasiwa sandla kubo. |
| 20. | Ukuba ke uthe wayixela le nto yethu, soba msulwa esifungweni sakho osifungise sona. |
| 21. | Yathi ke, Makube njengamazwi enu, kube njalo. Yawandulula, ahamba ke. Yayibopha intsontelo ebomvu efestileni. |
| 22. | Ahamba ke aya entabeni, ahlala khona iintsuku zantathu, bada babuya abo bawasukelayo; bafuna abo bawasukelayo endleleni yonke, abawafumana. |
| 23. | Abuya amadoda omabini, ehla entabeni, awela, afika kuYoshuwa unyana kaNun, ambikela zonke izinto afumenene nazo. |
| 24. | Athi kuYoshuwa, UYehova ulinikele esandleni sethu lonke ilizwe elo; kananjalo bathe amandla bonke abemi belizwe phambi kwethu. |
