Joshuwa
20 Ngemuva kwaloko Jehova watsi kuJoshuwa: 2 “Tjela ema-Israyeli utsi: ‘Tikhetseleni emadolobha ekukhosela+ lengakhuluma ngawo kini ngisebentisa Mosi, 3 kuze umuntfu lobulele lomunye angakahlosi nobe ngengoti* atewubalekela kuwo. Atawuba sivikelo kini kumphindziseli wengati.+ 4 Lomuntfu kufanele abalekele kulinye lalamadolobha+ futsi eme ekungeneni kweligede lalo,+ etfule indzaba yakhe emadvodzeni lamadzala akulelidolobha. Lamadvodza lamadzala abobese ayamngenisa kulo, amnikete indzawo latawuhlala kuyo bese uhlala nawo. 5 Nangabe umphindziseli wengati amcosha, lamadvodza lamadzala akukafaneli amkhiphele kuye, ngobe lomuntfu wakubo umbulele ngesiphosiso* futsi bekangamenyanyi.+ 6 Lomuntfu abohlala kulelidolobha aze atekiswe licala embikwesive+ futsi abohlala lapho kuze kufe umphristi lophakeme+ wangaleso sikhatsi. Angabese uyabuyela kulelidolobha labaleka kulo aphindze angene endlini yakhe.’”+
7 Ngako bangcwelisa* iKhedeshi+ leseGalile esifundzeni setintsaba sakaNaftali, iShekhemu+ lesesifundzeni setintsaba saka-Efrayimu, neKhiriyathi-abha+ lokuyiHebroni, esifundzeni setintsaba sakaJuda. 8 Esifundzeni saseJordane lesisemphumalanga yeJerikho, bakhetsa iBheseri+ lesehlane endzaweni lephakeme* yesive sakaRubeni, iRamothi+ leseGileyadi esiveni sakaGadi neGolani+ leseBhashani esiveni sakaManase.+
9 Lawa kwaba ngemadolobha lakhetselwa onkhe ema-Israyeli kanye nebantfu bekuhamba labahlala emkhatsini wawo, kuze nobe ngubani lobulala umuntfu ngesiphosiso abalekele kuwo+ futsi angabulawa ngumphindziseli wengati asengakatekiswa licala embikwesive.+
