Bhekani, njengalokho uJehova eniphile isabatha , ngalokho uyaninika ngosuku lwesithupha isinkwa sezinsuku ezimbili ; hlalani, kube yilowo nalowo endaweni yakhe , kungaphumi muntu endaweni yakhe ngosuku lwesikhombisa.

UJoshuwa wayala abantu, wathi: Aniyikukhamuluka; ningalizwakalisi izwi lenu, kungaphumi gama emlonyeni wenu , kuze kufike usuku engiyakuthi ngalo kini: Khamulukani! Bese nikhamuluka.

Ningabe nisakhuluma ngokuzidla kangaka , kungaphumi ukuqhosha emlonyeni wenu , ngokuba uJehova unguNkulunkulu wokwazi ; izenzo zilinganiswa nguye.

Kwathi eseqedile ukunikela ng omnikelo wokushiswa , uJehu wathi kubalindi nasezinduneni : Ngenani, nibabulale, kungaphumi muntu . Bababulala ngosiko lwenkemba . Abalindi nezinduna babantshinga phandle , bangena ekamelweni eliphakathi lendlu kaBali.
