3 Nunku Adoni-sedeke mukalenge wa Yelushalema wakatumina Hohama mukalenge wa Hebelone,+ Pilama mukalenge wa Yâmuta, Yafia mukalenge wa Lakisha, ne Debî mukalenge wa Egelona, mukenji eu ne:+
4 “Luayi nungambuluishe, tuluishayi Gibeona, bualu mmupunge tshipungidi tshia ditalala ne Yoshua ne bena Isalele.”+
5 Nunku bakalenge batanu ba bena Amole+ bakadisanga pamue, mmumue ne: mukalenge wa Yelushalema, mukalenge wa Hebelone, mukalenge wa Yâmuta, mukalenge wa Lakisha, ne mukalenge wa Egelona, pamue ne biluilu biabu, bobu kuya, kuasabu tshitudilu bua kuluisha Gibeona.
6 Pashishe bantu ba mu Gibeona bakatumina Yoshua mukenji mu tshitudilu ku Gilegala ne:+ “Kulekedi* bapika bebe to.+ Luaku lukasa! Utusungile ne utuambuluishe! Bakalenge bonso ba bena Amole ba ku buloba bua mikuna mbadisange bua kutuluisha.”

8 Pashishe Yehowa wakambila Yoshua ne: “Kubatshinyi to,+ bualu ndi mubafile mu tshianza tshiebe.+ Muntu nansha umue wa kudibu kakukukandamena to.”+

13 Nunku dîba diakimana tendee ne ngondo kakanyunga too ne pavua tshisamba tshidisombuele kudi bena lukuna batshi. Ki mbafunde bualu ebu mu mukanda wa Yashâ anyi?+ Dîba diakimana tendee munkatshi mua diulu ne kadiakabuela lukasa dituku bu dijima.
14 Kakutu kuanji kuikala dituku bu dituku adi to, ni nkumpala kuadi anyi panyima padi, divua Yehowa muteleje dîyi dia muntu,+ bualu Yehowa uvua uluila Isalele.+
15 Pashishe Yoshua pamue ne Isalele mujima bakapingana mu tshitudilu ku Gilegala.+
16 Pine apu bakalenge batanu abu bakanyema, kusokomabu mu nyongolo ku Makeda.+
17 Pashishe bakambila Yoshua ne: “Mbasangane bakalenge batanu abu basokome mu nyongolo ku Makeda.”+

19 Kadi nuenu bakuabu kanuimanyi to. Londayi bena lukuna benu, nubashipele lua panyima.+ Kanubalekedi babuela mu bimenga biabu to, bualu Yehowa Nzambi wenu mmubafile mu bianza bienu.”
