Yosuwa
23 Nyuma y’iminsi myinshi Yehova ahaye Abisirayeli amahoro,+ akabakiza abanzi babo bose bari babakikije, ni ukuvuga igihe Yosuwa yari amaze gusaza,+ 2 Yosuwa yahamagaye Abisirayeli bose,+ abakuru babo, abakuru b’imiryango yabo, abacamanza babo n’abatware babo,+ arababwira ati: “Dore maze gusaza cyane 3 kandi rwose mwiboneye ibintu byose Yehova Imana yanyu yakoreye ibi bihugu byose ari mwebwe abikoreye, kuko Yehova Imana yanyu ari we wabarwaniriraga.+ 4 Uturere two mu bihugu bisigaye n’utwo mu bihugu byose narimbuye+ uhereye kuri Yorodani ukagera ku Nyanja Nini* mu burengerazuba,* nabihaye imiryango yanyu+ ngo bibabere umurage nkoresheje ubufindo.+ 5 Yehova Imana yanyu ni we wakomeje kubirukana,+ abaka igihugu cyabo kugira ngo akibahe kandi mwafashe igihugu cyabo nk’uko Yehova Imana yanyu yari yarabibasezeranyije.+
6 Ubu rero mugomba kuba intwari cyane kugira ngo mukurikize ibintu byose byanditswe mu gitabo cy’Amategeko+ ya Mose, mukirinda kuyica,+ 7 mwirinda kwifatanya n’abantu basigaye bo muri ibyo bihugu.+ Ntimuzavuge amazina y’imana zabo,+ ntimuzarahire mu mazina yazo, ntimuzazikorere cyangwa ngo muzunamire.+ 8 Ahubwo muzakomeze kubera indahemuka Yehova Imana yanyu,+ nk’uko mwabigenje kugeza ubu. 9 Yehova na we azabirukanira ibihugu bikomeye kandi bifite imbaraga,+ kuko kugeza ubu nta muntu n’umwe wabashije kubarwanya ngo abatsinde.+ 10 Umuntu umwe muri mwe azirukana abantu igihumbi,+ kuko Yehova Imana yanyu ari we ubarwanirira+ nk’uko yabibasezeranyije.+ 11 Ubwo rero, mukomeze kuba maso,+ mukunde Yehova Imana yanyu.”+
12 “Ariko nimureka Imana, mukagirana ubucuti n’abantu basigaye bo muri ibi bihugu,+ mugashyingirana+ na bo, mukifatanya na bo, kandi na bo bakifatanya namwe, 13 mumenye rwose ko Yehova Imana yanyu atazakomeza kubirukanira abantu bo muri ibyo bihugu.+ Bizababera nk’umutego, bibabere nk’inkoni mukubitwa mu mugongo,+ n’amahwa mu maso yanyu, kugeza igihe muzapfira mugashira muri iki gihugu cyiza Yehova Imana yanyu yabahaye.”
14 “Dore ngiye gupfa* kandi muzi neza n’umutima wanyu wose n’ubugingo* bwanyu bwose ko nta kintu na kimwe mu byiza byose Yehova Imana yanyu yabasezeranyije kitabaye. Byose byababayeho. Nta na kimwe yavuze kitabaye.+ 15 Ariko nk’uko Yehova Imana yanyu yabakoreye ibintu byiza byose yari yarabasezeranyije,+ ni na ko Yehova azabateza ibyago* byose yavuze kandi akabarimbura mugashira muri iki gihugu cyiza Yehova Imana yanyu yabahaye.+ 16 Nimutubahiriza isezerano mwagiranye na Yehova Imana yanyu kandi mugakorera izindi mana mukazunamira, Yehova azabarakarira cyane+ kandi muzahita murimbuka mushire mu gihugu cyiza yabahaye.”+
