Emva kwezinsuku eziningi yafa indodakazi kaShuwa umkaJuda ; eseduduzekile uJuda wakhuphuka , waya kubo abagundi bezimvu zakhe eThimna, yena kanye nomhlobo wakhe uHira wase-Adulamu.

UJehova wakhuluma kuMose ubuso nobuso , njengalokhu umuntu ekhuluma nomhlobo wakhe . Wabuyela ekamu , kepha i nceku yakhe uJoshuwa indodana kaNuni, insizwa, ayiphumanga etendeni. UMose ucela ukubona inkazimulo kaJehova

Yebo, nomhlobo wami ebengimethemba , obedla isinkwa sami , ungiphakamisele isithende sakhe.

Wathi kubo : Ngumuphi kini oyakuba nomhlobo , aye kuye phakathi kobusuku, athi kuye: Mhlobo, ngitsheleke izinkwa zibe zintathu,
