¹Zvino Jehovha wakataura naJoshua, akati,

¹Markaasaa Rabbigu Yashuuca la hadlay, oo ku yidhi,

²Taura navana vaIsiraeri, uti, Muzvitsaurire maguta outiziro, andakakuudzai nomuromo waMozisi;

²La hadal reer binu Israa'iil, oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Sooca magaalooyinkii magangalka oo aan idiinku sheegay Muuse,

³kuti munhu wakauraya mumwe nokusaziva kana asina kuita nobwoni, atizirepo; achava kwamuri utiziro pamutsivi weropa.

³in gacankudhiiglihii qof dilaa, isagoo aan u kasayn oo aan badheedh u samayn, uu halkaas u cararo; oo waxay idiin noqonayaan meeshaad ka magan geli lahaydeen kan dhiigga ka aarsada.

⁴Anofanira kutizira kune rimwe ramaguta iwayo, agondomira panopindwa napo pasuwo reguta, agoreva mhosva yake panzeve dzavakuru veguta iro; ipapo vanofanira kumugamuchira pakati pavo muguta, vamupe pokugara, agogara pakati pavo.

⁴Oo magaalooyinkaas middood waa inuu u cararaa, oo waa inuu istaagaa iridda magaalada laga soo galo, oo xaalkiisa waa inuu u caddeeyaa odayaasha magaalada, oo iyana waa inay magaalada soo geliyaan, oo meel siiyaan inuu la degganaado.

⁵Zvino kana mutsivi weropa achinge amutevera, haafaniri kuisa muurayi paruoko rwake, nekuti wakauraya wokwake asingaiti nobwoni, asina kumuvenga kare.

⁵Oo haddii kan dhiigga ka aarsadaa uu soo eryado, markaas waa inaanay gacankudhiiglihii gacantiisa gelin, maxaa yeelay, kaasu wuxuu deriskiisa ku dilay kama' oo horena ma uu nebcaan jirin.

⁶Zvino iye anofanira kugara muguta iro, kusvikira amira pamberi peungano atongwe, kusvikira pakufa komupristi mukuru uchavapo namazuva iwayo; ipapo muurayi anofanira kudzoka, aende kuguta rake nokumba kwake, kuguta kwaakanga atiza.

⁶Oo magaaladaas waa inuu degganaadaa ilaa uu xukun isu hor taago shirka, iyo ilaa uu ka dhinto wadaadka sare oo jiri doona waayahaas, oo markaas ka dib gacankudhiigluhu waa inuu noqdaa, oo waa inuu magaaladiisii yimaadaa, iyo gurigiisii, ilaa magaaladii uu markii hore ka cararay.

⁷Ipapo vakatsaura Kedheshi muGarirea panyika yamakomo yaNafutari, neShemi, panyika yamakomo yaEfuremu, neKiriati-abha (ndiro Zebhuroni) panyika yamakomo yaJudha.

⁷Oo waxay sooceen Qedesh oo ku tiil Galili oo ah dalka buuraha leh oo reer Naftaali, iyo Shekem oo iyana ku tiil dalka buuraha leh oo reer Efrayim, iyo Qiryad Arbac (oo ah Xebroon) ee ku tiil dalka buuraha leh oo reer Yahuudah.

⁸Nemhiri kwaJoridhani paJeriko kumabvazuva vakatsaura Bhezeri murenje pabani kurudzi rwaRubheni, neRamoti muGiriyadhi kurudzi rwaGadhi, neGorani muBhashani kurudzi rwaManase.

⁸Oo Webi Urdun shishadiisa meel Yerixoo u dhow oo bari ka xigta waxay ka sooceen Beser oo ku tiil cidladii ku tiil bannaankii qabiilka reer Ruubeen, iyo Raamod oo ku tiil Gilecaad oo ay qabiilkii reer Gaad lahaayeen, iyo Goolaan oo ku tiil Baashaan oo ay qabiilkii reer Manaseh lahaayeen.Intaasu waa magaalooyinkii loo doortay reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, iyo qariibkii dhexdooda degganaa, in ku alla kii qof dilaa, isagoo aan u kasayn, uu halkaas ku carari karo inaanu ku dhiman gacanta kan dhiigga ka aarsada, ilaa uu hor istaago shirka.

⁹Ndiwo maguta akatsaurirwa vana vaIsiraeri, vose navatorwa vaigara pakati pavo, kuti ani naani unouraya munhu nokusaziva atizireko, arege kufa noruoko rwomutsivi weropa, kusvikira amira pamberi peungano.

⁹Intaasu waa magaalooyinkii loo doortay reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, iyo qariibkii dhexdooda degganaa, in ku alla kii qof dilaa, isagoo aan u kasayn, uu halkaas ku carari karo inaanu ku dhiman gacanta kan dhiigga ka aarsada, ilaa uu hor istaago shirka.
