1 Waya uMoses, wawathetha la mazwi kumaSirayeli onke,
2 wathi kuwo, Ndiminyaka ilikhulu elinamanci mabini namhla ndizelwe. Andisenako ukuphuma nokungena; noYehova uthe kum, Akusayi kuyiwela le Yordan.
3 NguYehova uThixo wakho owela phambi kwakho; wózitshabalalisa ezo ntlanga phambi kwakho, uzithimbe. NguYoshuwa owela phambi kwakho, njengoko wathethayo uYehova.
4 Úya kwenza uYehova kuzo njengoko wenzayo kuSihon nakuOgi, ookumkani bama-Amori, nakwilizwe labo, awabatshabalalisayo;
5 azinikele kuni uYehova; nenze kuzo ngokomthetho wonke endiniwiseleyo.
6 Yomelelani nikhaliphe: musani ukoyika, musani ukungcangcazela ebusweni bazo. Ngokuba nguYehova uThixo wakho ohamba nawe; akayi kukuyekela, akayi kukushiya.
