U-Abrama wadabula izwe , waze wafika endaweni yaseShekemi nase -okini laseMore; amaKhanani ayesekhona ezweni.

Kwavela ukuxabana phakathi kwabelusi bezinkomo zika -Abrama nabelusi bezinkomo zikaLoti; amaKhanani namaPherizi ayehlala khona ezweni.

Ngizakukufungisa uJehova, uNkulunkulu wezulu noNkulunkulu womhlaba , ukuthi awuyikuthathela indodana yami umfazi emadodakazini amaKhanani engihlezi phakathi kwawo,

Inkosi yami yangifungisa yathi : U ngathatheli indodana yami umfazi emadodakazini amaKhanani engihlezi ezweni lawo,

UJakobe wayesethi koSimeyoni noLevi : Ningihluphile, ningenzile ukuba nginukele kabi abantu bezwe , amaKhanani namaPherizi , lokhu ngiyingcosana, bayakungihlanganyela, bangibulale, ngichithwe mina nendlu yami.

Abakhileyo ezweni , amaKhanani, sebebone isililo eGoreni Ha thadi bathi : Lokhu kuyisililo esinzima sabaseGibithe . Ngalokho igama laleyo ndawo laqanjwa ngokuthi i-Abela Misirayimi elingaphesheya kweJordani.

Ngiyakuthuma ingelosi phambi kwakho , ngiwaxoshe amaKhanani , nama- Amori, namaHeti, namaPherizi, namaHivi, namaJebusi,

U-Amaleki wakhile ezweni laseningizimu; amaHeti, namaJebusi, nama- Amori ahlala ezintabeni ; amaKhanani akhile ngaselwandle naseceleni kweJordani.

UJehova walilalela izwi lika -Israyeli, wanikela amaKhanani; bawaqothula kanye nemizi yawo; igama laleyo ndawo lathiwa iHorma. Inyoka yethusi

Wathi uJoshuwa : Niyakwazi ngalokhu ukuthi uNkulunkulu ophilayo uphakathi kwenu nokuthi uyakuxosha nokuxosha phambi kwenu amaKhanani, namaHeti, namaHivi, namaPherizi, namaGirigashi, nama- Amori, namaJebusi.

Kwathi onke amakhosi ama -Amori ayengaphesheya kweJordani ngasentshonalanga, nawo onke amakhosi amaKhanani ayengaselwandle esezwa ukuthi uJehova womise amanzi aseJordani phambi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli saze sawela , izinhliziyo zabo zaphela amandla , kungabe kusaba khona sibindi ngenxa yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.

Ngokuba amaKhanani nabo bonke abakhileyo ezweni bayakukuzwa , basihaqe, banqume igama lethu emhlabeni ; uyakwenzela ntoni igama lakho elikhulu na?

nakuwo amaKhanani ngasempumalanga nangasentshonalanga, nakuwo ama- Amori, namaHeti, namaPherizi, namaJebusi ezintabeni, namaHivi ngaphansi kweHermoni ezweni laseMispa.

Kodwa abawaxoshanga amaKhanani ahlala eGezeri, kepha amaKhanani ahlala phakathi kuka -Efrayimi kuze kube namuhla , aba yizinceku zokusebenza.

Kodwa abantwana bakwaManase babengenakunqoba leyo mizi ; kepha amaKhanani ayethanda ukuhlala kulelo zwe.

Kwathi lapho abantwana bakwa -Israyeli sebeqinile , bawasebenzisa amaKhanani, abawaxoshanga ngokupheleleyo.

Bathi abantwana bakwaJosefa: Izintaba azisanele; onke amaKhanani ahlala ezweni lesigodi anezinqola zensimbi, wona aseBeti Sheyani kanye nemizana yalo nawo asesiGodini saseJizreyeli.

kepha izintaba ziyakuba ngezakho ; noma ziyihlathi , woligawula; namaphethelo alo mawabe ngawakho , ngokuba uyakuwaxosha amaKhanani, nakuba enezinqola zensimbi nakuba enamandla.

Kwathi emva kokufa kukaJoshuwa aban twana bakwa -Israyeli bambuza uJehova, bathi: Ngubani phakathi kwethu oyakusikhuphukelela kuwo amaKhanani kuqala ukulwa nawo na?

UJuda wakhuphuka ; uJehova wanikela esandleni sabo amaKhanani namaPherizi, babulala kuwo abantu abayizinkulungwane eziyishumi eBezeki.

EBezeki bafumana u -Adoni Bezeki , balwa naye , bawabulala amaKhanani namaPherizi.

UJuda wayesehlasela amaKhanani ayakhe eHebroni igama leHebroni laliyiKiriyati Araba kuqala babulala oSheshayi, no-Ahimani, noTalimayi.

UManase akaxoshanga abaseBeti Sheyani nemizana yalo, nabaseThahanaki nemizana yalo , nabakhe eDori nemizana yalo , nabakhe eJibileyamu nemizana yalo , nabakhe eMegido nemizana yalo ; amaKhanani aphumelela ukuhlala kulelo zwe.

Kwathi u-Israyeli esenamandla , bawasebenzisa amaKhanani , kepha abawaxoshanga nokuwaxosha.

Naye u -Efrayimi akaxoshanga amaKhanani ayakhe eGezeri ; kepha amaKhanani ahlala phakathi kwabo eGezeri.

UZebuloni akaxoshanga abakhe eKitroni , nabakhe eNahaloli ; kepha amaKhanani ahlala phakathi kwabo, asetshenziswa.

Amakhosi ayisihlanu amaFilisti , nawo onke amaKhanani , namaSidoni, namaHivi ahlala entabeni yaseLebanoni, kusukela entabeni yaseBali Hermoni kuze kube sekuyeni eHamati.

uFaro inkosi yaseGibithe wayenyukile wathatha iGezeri , walishisa ngomlilo, wabulala amaKhanani ayehlezi emzini , walinika umkaSolomoni indodakazi yakhe, libe yisipho sakhe.

Abantwana bangena -ke, balidla izwe , wahlula phambi kwabo abakhe ezweni, amaKhanani, wabanikela ezandleni zabo , kanye namakhosi abo , nabantu bezwe, ukuba benze kubo njengokuthanda kwabo.
