1Wayesengikhombisa uJoshuwa umphristi omkhulu emi phambi kwengelosi kaSimakade, noSathane wayemi ngakwesokunene sakhe emmangalela.

2USimakade wathi kuSathane: “USimakade uyakukhuza, Sathane. Impela, uSimakade okhethe iJerusalema uyakukhuza. Lona akasiso yini isikhuni esophulwe emlilweni na?”

3UJoshuwa wayembethe izingubo ezingcolileyo, emi phambi kwengelosi.

4Yayala ababemi phambi kwakhe, yathi: “Mkhumuleni izingubo ezingcolileyo.” Yayisithi kuye: “Uyabona, sengisisusile kuwe isiphambeko sakho; ngizokwembathisa izingubo zobukhosi.”

5Yayisithi: “Methweseni umshuqulu ohlanzekileyo ekhanda.” Base bemethwesa umshuqulu ohlanzekileyo ekhanda, bamembathisa izingubo, ingelosi kaSimakade yayimile.

6Ingelosi kaSimakade yamyala uJoshuwa, ithi:

7“Usho kanje uSimakade Wamabandla, uthi: ‘Uma uhamba ngezindlela zami, ugcine imiyalo yami, uyakuphatha endlini yami, unakekele namagceke ami; ngiyakwenza uhambe phakathi kwalaba abami lapha.

8“ ‘Ake ulalele, Joshuwa, mphristi omkhulu, wena nobambisene nabo abahlala phambi kwakho, ngokuba bangabantu abayisibonakaliso: niyabona-ke, sengizakuletha inceku yami, uHlumela.

9Ngokuba bheka, itshe engilibeke phambi kukaJoshuwa kukhona amehlo ayisikhombisa etsheni lilodwa ngiyakuqopha umbhalo kulo, bese ngisusa bonke ububi baleli lizwe ngalusuku lunye,’ ” kusho uSimakade Wamabandla.

10“ ‘Ngalolo lusuku, yilowo nalowo uyakumema umakhelwane wakhe, phansi komvini naphansi komkhiwane.’ ”
