2 O sobha ya Jedikó a mutangela exi: “Sayi mayala akwa Izalayele eza kuku mu usuku, phala kulonda o ixi.”
3 Mukyenyiki, o sobha ya Jedikó watumina kwambela Lahaba, wixi: “Tubhula bhu kanga o mayala eza m’onzo yé, mukonda ene eza mulonda o ixi yetu.”
4 Maji o muhatu wambata o mayala ayadi, yu wa asweka. Kyenyiki, mwene wambela o jiselevende ja sobha, wixi: “Kidi mwene, o mayala ejile muzwela n’eme, maji kingijidile se ene atundu kwebhi.
5 O mayala atundu ande dya kujika o dibhitu dya mbanza, kyoso kikwakexile muvunda kya. Kingejiya se ene aditela kwebhi. Se mwakayela ni lusolo lwoso, mwanda ku akwata.”
6 (Mwene wa ambata kuditala dya inzo, yu wa asweka mu ita ya linyu yakexile kwenyoko.
7 Kyenyiki, o mayala ayi mwa akayela mu ididi muzaukila o athu mu ngiji ya Njolodá. O dibhitu dya mbanza anga adijika kyoso kyatundu o mayala ayi mwakayela.
8 Ande dya alondi kuya muzeka, Lahaba wayi kuditala dya inzo muzwela nawu.
9 Lahaba wambela o alondi, wixi: “Ngejiya kwila Jihova wanda mibhana o ixi yiyi. Etu enyoso twala ni wôma wenu. O athu oso a ixi yiyi, a muteketa ni wôma wavulu mukonda dyenu.
10 Kuma twevu kyebhi Jihova kya kukutisa o menya a Kalunga Kakusuka ku pholo yenu, kyoso ki mwatundu ku Ijitu, ni ihi i mwabhange ku jisobha jiyadi ja akwa Mamodi, Sihone ni Hoge, mwa abwika ku sambwa* ya Njolodá.
11 Kyoso kitwevu o ima yiyi, wôma* watukwata, o nguzu yatubhu mukonda dyenu, kuma Jihova Nzambi yenu, mwéne ngo o Nzambi ku dyulu ni mu ixi.
12 Kyenyiki, nga midyondo, ngikanenyenu mu dijina dya Jihova kwila, kala ki nga mibhange o mbote,* enu we mwanda bhangela mbote* kwa yó atokala ku dibhata dya tat’etu. Ngibhanyenu kijimbwete kilondekesa kwila enu mwanda kumbidila o izwelu yenu.
13 Kanenu kujibha tat’etu ni mam’etu, ni jiphange jami ja mala ni ja ahatu, ni athu oso a atokala. Mu tubhulula ku kalunga.”*
14 Mukyenyiki, o mayala a mwambela: “Twanda bhana o myenyu yetu phala ku mibhulula!* Se ki uzwela kima kyalungu ni kima kitweza mubhanga, kyoso Jihova kyanda tubhana o ixi yiyi, twanda mibhanga mbote* ni ku milondekesa ufiyele.”
15 Mukusuluka, mwene wa abhangesa kutuluka ni mukolo wakusuka bhu njanena, mukonda o inzo yê yakexile ku mbandu ya ilumbu ya mbanza. Mukidi, o inzo yê yakexile ku thandu a ilumbu.
16 Mukyenyiki, mwene wa ambela, wixi: “Ndenu mudisweke ku milundu, mukala kwenyoko mu izuwa itatu, phala o yó a mu misota, kamisange. Kyoso ene kyanda vutuka, enu mutena kusuluka ni njila yenu.”
17 O mayala a mwambela: “Kitwanda kala ni kikuma mu kima kiki ki wa tubhingi,
18 se kyoso kitwanda vutuka mu ixi yiyi, ukamba kukuta o mukolo wakusuka mu njanena mu wa tubhangesa kutulukila. Watokala kukala mu inzo yé ni tat’é ni mam’enu, ni jiphange jê ni athu oso atokala ku dibhata dya tat’enu.
19 Kyenyiki, se bhukala muthu utunda bhu kanga dya inzo yê, mwéne wanda kala ni kikuma kya manyinga, etu kitwanda kala ni kikuma. Maji se kubhita kima kyayibha ku muthu wala mu inzo yê, etu twanda kala ni kikuma kya manyinga.
20 Maji se ukitangela muthu yalungu ni kima kitweza mubhanga, etu kitwanda kala ni kikuma mu kikutu ki wabhange n’etu.”
21 Mwene wa atambwijila, wixi: “Kibhite kala ki mwazwela.”
Mukyenyiki, mwene wa atumina kuya, ene anga abhanga o njila yâ. Ku pholo dya kwenda, mwene wakutu o mukolo wakusuka mu njanena.
22 Ene alengela ku milundu ya adisweka kwenyoko mu izuwa itatu, kate o mayala akexile mwasota kyavutuka. O mayala a asota mu ikoka yoso, maji ka asange.
23 O mayala ayadi atundu ku milundu, ya azauka o ngiji. Ene ayi kwa Jozuwé mon’â Nune, ya a mutangela yoso yabhiti ni ene.
24 Kyenyiki, atangela Jozuwé, exi: “Jihova wa tubhana o ixi yoso yiyi. Mukidi o athu oso atungu mu ixi yiyi, a muteketa ni wôma mukonda dyetu.”
