2 Aboobo Jehova wakandaambila kuti, ‘Utamuyoowi pe, nkaambo ndilamwaaba mumaanza aako abantu bakwe boonse anyika yakwe, alimwi uyoomucita mbubonya mbookacita Sihoni mwami wabana Amori, iwakali kukkala mu Hesiboni.’
3 Aboobo Jehova Leza wesu wakamwaaba awalo Mwami Ogi wa Basani abantu bakwe boonse mumaanza eesu, alimwi twakazumanana kubajaya kusikila boonse bafwa.
4 Mpoonya twakaibweza minzi yakwe yoonse. Kunyina munzi nouba omwe ngotwatakabanyanga, twakabanyanga minzi iili 60, cilawo coonse ca Arigobi, ibwami bwa Ogi ku Basani.+
5 Minzi eeyi yoonse yakayakilidwe bulambo bulamfwu, milyango aminkulwa yayo, antoomwe atunzi tunji kapati itwatakayakilidwe.
6 Nokuba boobo twakainyonyoona+ mbubonya mbotwakacita ku Mwami Sihoni wa Hesiboni, notwakanyonyoona minzi yakwe yoonse kubikkilizya abaalumi, bamakaintu abana.+
7 Banyama boonse bavwubwa azisaalo zyamuminzi twakazibweza.
8 “Aciindi eeco twakabanyanga nyika bami bobilo babana Amori+ aabo ibakali mucilawo ca Jordano, kuzwa ku Kkuti lya Arinoni* kusikila ku Cilundu ca Herimoni;+
9 (bana Sidoni bakali kwiita cilundu ca Herimoni kuti Sirioni, eelyo bana Amori bakali kuciita kuti Seniri),
10 minzi yoonse yakali anyika iiyalene, nyika ya Gileadi yoonse aya Basani yoonse kusikila ku Saleka aku Edrei,+ iminzi yabwami bwa Ogi ku Basani.
11 Nkaambo Mwami Ogi wa Basani alikke ngowakasyeede akati kaba Refaimu. Macila* aakwe akali aabutale, alimwi nkwaacili mu Raba, imunzi wabana Amoni. Alampa tukokola* tuli fwuka atukokola tone mubwamba kweelana ambobakali kweeleka tukokola.
12 Aciindi eeco twakaibweza nyika eeyi: kuzwa kunyika ya Aroeri+ iili ku Kkuti lya Arinoni,* acisela camalundu aaku Gileadi alimwi minzi yayo ndakaipa kubana Rubeni abana Gadi.+
13 Eelyo nyika ya Gileadi iyakasyaala alimwi anyika ya Basani yamubwami bwa Ogi ndazipa kucisela camusyobo wa Manase.+ Cilawo coonse ca Arigobi, caku Basani cakazyibidwe kuti ninyika yaba Refaimu.
14 “Jairi+ mwana wa Manase wakabweza cilawo coonse ca Arigobi+ kusikila kumunyinza wabana Gesuri abana Maakati,+ aboobo minzi eeyo ya Basani wakayuulika zina lyakwe lyakuti Havoti-jairi*+ kusikila sunu.
15 Alimwi Makiri ndamupa Gileadi.+
16 Bana Rubeni abana Gadi ndabapa kuzwa ku Gileadi+ kusikila ku Kkuti lya Arinoni,* kkuti eeli mpolili akati kauli ngomunyinza, alimwi akusika ku Jaboki, ikkuti kalili ngomunyinza wabana Amoni,
17 a Araba, Jordano amunyinza wanguwo, kuzwa ku Kinereti kusikila ku Lwizi lwa Araba, Lwizi lwa Munyo,* aansi eeni mpocigolela cilundu ca Pisiga kulubazu lwakujwe.+
18 “Mpoonya ndakamupa malailile aaya aakuti, ‘Jehova Leza wanu wamupa nyika eeyi kuti ibe yanu. Baalumi banu boonse bakonzya kuya kunkondo abalibambile nkondo akuzabuka kumbele lyabanabokwanu ibana Israyeli.+
19 Pele buyo bamakaintu banu, bana banu abanyama banu bavwubwa (Ndilizyi kuti mulivwubide banyama banji kapati) mbobatisyaale muminzi njindamupa,
20 kusikila Jehova akabape kulyookezya banabokwanu mbubonya mbuli ndinywe, eelyo abalo baakubweza nyika eeyo Jehova Leza wanu njayoobapa mutala lya Jordano. Mpoonya muyoopiluka, umwi aumwi kulukono lwakwe ndondamupa.’+
21 “Aciindi eeco ndakalailila Joshua+ kuti: ‘Walibonena ameso zyoonse Jehova Leza wanu nzyaacita kubami aaba bobilo. Jehova uyoocita mbubonya oobo kumami oonse aamunyika ooko nkomuya.+
22 Tamweelede kubayoowa pe nkaambo Jehova Leza wanu nguumulwanina.’+
23 “Kuciindi eeco ndakakombelezya Jehova kuti,
24 ‘O Mwami Singuzuzyoonse Jehova, watalika kunditondezya ndemubelesi wako bupati bwako ajanza lyako lyanguzu,+ nkaambo ngwani akati kabaleza kujulu naa anyika uukonzya kucita milimo iili boobu iigambya mbuli yako?+
25 Kondizumizya kaka, ndizabuke kuti ndikabone nyika mbotu iili mutala lya Jordano, nyika mbotu eeyi yamalundu alimwi a Lebano.’+
26 Pele Jehova wakacilindinyemenede akaambo kandinywe+ alimwi tanaakandiswiilila pe; pele Jehova wakati kulindime, ‘Mbubo lino! Utakandaambili limbi makani aaya.
27 Koya utante atala aacilundu ca Pisiga+ akulanga kumbo, kunyika, kumusanza akujwe wiibone nyika ameso aako, nkaambo tokauzabuki mulonga ooyu wa Jordano.+
28 Kobikka Joshua+ kuba musololi alimwi umukulwaizye akumuyumya-yumya, nkaambo nguuyoosololela+ bantu aaba alimwi ngonguwe uuyoobapa kuti bakone nyika njotiibone.’
29 Eezyi zyoonse zyakacitika notwakakkede mukkuti kumbele lya Beti-peori.+
