Otu uvu ayihe mbyoka a ningi muEgipiti. 10 Naashoka a ningile aakwaniilwa yaali yAayamori kuuzilo waJordan: omukwaniilwa Sihon gwaHeshbon nomukwaniilwa Og gwaBaasha, mboka ya kala muAshtarot. 11 Aawiliki yetu naantu ayehe moshilongo shetu oye tu lombwele, tu kuthe iikulya yimwe, tu idhenge mondjila, tu ye tu ku tsakaneke.

14 Aalumentu Aaisraeli oya taamba kuyo iikulya yimwe, ihe inaa pula nando omayele kOmuwa moshinima shika. 15 Josua okwa ningi euvaneno lyombili naantu yomuGibeon e te ya pitika, ya kale ye na omwenyo. Aawiliki yAaisraeli oye shi koleke nokugana.
16 Omasiku gatatu sho ga piti po okuza keuvaneno, Aaisraeli oya koneke kutya nani aantu mbaka oya zi popepi. 17 Onkee Aaisraeli oya thikama nokonima yomasiku gatatu oya thiki kiilando yawo: Gibeon, Kefira, Beerot naKiriat Jearim. 18 Ihe Aaisraeli inaye ya dhipaga, oshoka aawiliki oya adhika ya ninga naantu mbaka euvaneko lyokwakola medhina lyOmuwa, Kalunga kaIsrael. Aantu ayehe oye shi nyenyetele kaawiliki, 19 ihe mbaka oya yamukula: “Otse twe ya pe euvaneko lyokwakola medhina lyOmuwa Kalunga kaIsrael. Onkee itatu vulu oku ya ninga nayi. 20 Otu na oku ya etha, ya kale ye na omwenyo omolweuvaneko lyetu; ngele itatu shi ningi, nena Kalunga ote tu geele. 21 Naa kale ye na omwenyo, ihe oye na okutyaya iikuni noku tu tekela omeya.” Osho aawiliki ya tokola omolwawo.
22 Josua okwi ithanitha aantu yomuGibeon, ye ye kuye, nokwe ya pula: “Omolwashike tamu tu kotokele noku tu lombwela kutya omwa zi kokule, nando omu li popepi natse? 23 Molwashoka mwa ningi ngeyi, Kalunga okwe mu tokola. Oshigwana sheni otashi ka kala aluhe oshipika, aatyayi yiikuni naateki yomeya gomotempeli yaKalunga kandje.”
24 Oya yamukula ya ti: “Shika otwe shi ningi, tatekulu, oshoka otu uvile kutya Omuwa Kalunga koye okwa li a lombwele omumati gwe Moses, e mu pe evi ndika alihe nokudhipaga aantu ayehe mondjila yeni. Otwe shi ningi, oshoka otwa li twe mu tila nokutya otamu tu dhipaga. 25 Ngashingeyi otu li miikaha yoye; tu ninga shoka she ku opalela noshu uka.” 26 Josua osho a ningi. Okwe ya gamene noina zimina, Aaisraeli ye ya dhipage. 27 Ihe okwe ya ningi aapika yokutyaya iikuni nokuteka omeya gAaisraeli nogoshiyambelo shOmuwa. Sigo ongashingeyi oya tsikile okulonga mbika meha ndyoka Omuwa a hogolola, a simanekelwe mo.
