15 “Kuyothi uma ungalilaleli izwi likaJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ngokuqaphela ukuba wenze yonke imiyalo yakhe nezimiso zakhe engikuyala ngakho namuhla, zonke lezi ziqalekiso ziyokwehlela futhi zikufice:+

24 Manje uJoshuwa, no-Israyeli wonke kanye naye, bamthatha u-Akhani+ indodana kaZera nesiliva nesembatho sezikhulu nesigaxa segolide+ namadodana akhe namadodakazi akhe nenkomo yakhe nembongolo yakhe nomhlambi wakhe wezimvu nezimbuzi netende lakhe nakho konke okwakungokwakhe bakuyisa ethafeni eliphansi lase-Akori.+

25 Kodwa lapho u-Esteri engena phambi kwenkosi yathi ngencwadi elotshiwe:+ “Icebo lakhe elibi+ alicebele amaJuda malibuyele phezu kwekhanda lakhe”;+ futhi walengiswa kanye namadodana akhe esigxotsheni.+

4 ‘Ngisikhiphile,’ kusho uJehova wamabutho, ‘kumelwe singene endlini yesela nasendlini yowenza isifungo samanga egameni lami;+ kumelwe sihlale phakathi endlini yakhe siyiqothule kanye nezingodo zayo namatshe ayo.’”+

5 Kodwa ngobulukhuni bakho+ nenhliziyo engaphenduki+ uzibekelela ulaka+ osukwini lolaka+ nolokwambulwa+ kwesahlulelo sikaNkulunkulu esilungileyo.+

6 Ulaka lukaNkulunkulu luyeza+ ngenxa yalezo zinto.
