1Weva ke uYabhin, ukumkani waseHatsore, wathumela kuYobhabhi ukumkani waseMadon, nakukumkani waseShimron, nakukumkani ka-Asafu;

2nakookumkani abangasentla kweentaba namahewu, ngasezantsi kweKineroti, nasesihlanjeni, nasentshonalanga kweDore;

3namaKanan empumalanga nasentshonalanga, nama-Amori, namaHeti, namaPerizi, namaYebhusi asezintabeni, namaHifi abephantsi kweHermon, ezweni laseMizpa.

4Bemka bona nemikhosi yabo yonke, into eninzi yabantu, ebaninzi entlabathini naselunxwemeni lolwandle, enamahashe amaninzi, neenqwelo zokulwa.

5Bahlanganisana abo kumkani bonke, beza bamisa emanzini aseMerom ukuba balwe namaSirayeli.

6Wathi uYehova kuYoshuwa, Musa ukuboyika; ngokuba ngomso eli xa ndiya kubanikela bonke ababuleweyo phambi koonyana bakaSirayeli; wagawuleni amahashe abo, nizitshise ngomlilo iinqwelo zabo zokulwa.

7Waza uYoshuwa namadoda okulwa awayekunye naye kwaoko bawaxabela emanzini aseMerom; bawa phezu kwabo.

8uYehova wabanikela esandleni soonyana bakaSirayeli, bawaxabela, bawasukela, kwada kwesa eTsidon enkulu, kwesa eMisrefoti-mayim, kwesa entilini yeMizpa ngasempumalanga; bawoyisa kwada akwasala namnye.

9Wenza ke uYoshuwa kubo njengoko uYehova wamwisela umthetho ngako; wawenyusa amahashe abo, wazitshisa ezinqwelweni zabo zokulwa.

10Wajika uYoshuwa ngelo xesha, wayithimba iHatsore, wambulala ukumkani wayo ngekrele, kuba uHatsore wayefudula eyintloko yazo zonke ezo zikumkani.

11Ababulala bonke abantu abakuyo ngobushushu bekrele, babaxabela ngekrele; kwakungekho mntu uphefumlayo; wamtshisa uHatsore ngomlilo.

12uYoshuwa wazithimba zonke izixeko zabo kumkani nabo bonke ookumkani bazo waza wababulala ngohlangothi lwekrele, wababulala ngesiqalekiso, kanye njengoko uMoses umkhonzi kaYehova wayalelayo.

13Ke imizi eyayishiyeke ezinqabeni zayo amaSirayeli akayitshisanga, yaba yiHatsore kuphela; wamtshisa uYoshuwa.

14Onke amaxhoba aloo mizi neenkomo bazithimbelayo oonyana bakaSirayeli; kodwa bababulala wonk’ ubani ngohlangothi lwekrele de babatshabalalisa, yaye abazange bavumele nabani na ophefumlayo.

15Njengoko uYehova wamwiselayo umthetho uMoses umkhonzi wakhe, uMoses wamwisela umthetho ngokunjalo uYoshuwa. Wenjenjalo ke uYoshuwa; makangonakalisi nantoni na uYehova awamwisela umthetho ngayo uMoses.

16Waloyisa uYoshuwa lonke elo zwe leentaba, nelizwe lonke lasezantsi, nelizwe laseGoshen lonke, leentili, nentlango, neentaba zakwaSirayeli, nezihlambo zakhona;

17ukusuka kwiNtaba yeHalaki enyuka iye kwaSehire ukuya eBhahali-gadi kwintlambo yaseLebhanon phantsi kweNtaba yeHermon; bonke ookumkani bawo wabathimba, waboyisa, wababulala.

18uYoshuwa waqhubeka esilwa nabo bonke abo kumkani ixesha elide.

19Akubangakho mzi wazinikelayo ngoxolo koonyana bakaSirayeli, ingengamaHifi kuphela abemi baseGibheyon; abaseleyo babasa emfazweni.

20Kuba kwavela kuYehova ukuze azenze lukhuni iintliziyo zawo ukuba amhlasele uSirayeli ngemfazwe, ukuze awabethe ngesiqalekiso esitshabalalisayo, yaye awaba nanceba, ngaphandle kokuba amtshabalalise, kanye njengoko uYehova wayeyalele.

21Ngelo xesha uYoshuwa weza waza wawatshabalalisa ama-Anaki ezintabeni, eHebron, eDebhiri, eAnabhi nakuzo zonke iintaba zakwaYuda nakwiintaba zonke zakwaSirayeli; Wawaqalekisa uYoshuwa wona nemizi yawo.

22Akwasala namnye kuma-Anaki ezweni loonyana bakaSirayeli, ngaphandle kweGaza neGati neAshdode.

23Waliloyisa ke uYoshuwa lonke ilizwe, njengako konke uYehova awakuthethayo kuMoses; uYoshuwa wababela oonyana bakaSirayeli ilifa labo, ngokwezabelo zabo ngokwemizalwane yabo. Yaye ihlabathi laphumla emfazweni.
