17 Waliva uYoshuwa izwi labantu ekudumeni kwabo, wathi kuMoses, Lilizwi lemfazwe eminqubeni.
18 Wathi yena, Àsilizwi lakuduma kwabeyisayo, àsilizwi lakukhala kwabeyiswayo; lilizwi labahlabelayo nabavumayo, endilivayo mna.
19 Kwathi, xa asondelayo eminqubeni, walibona ithole nomdudo. Wavutha umsindo kaMoses, wawalahla amacwecwe, wawaqhekeza emazantsi entaba.
20 Walithabatha ithole ababelenzile, walitshisa ngomlilo, walisila lada lacoleka, waligcwayela emanzini, waseza oonyana bakaSirayeli.
21 Wathi uMoses kuAron, Benzé ntoni na aba bantu kuwe, ukuba ubazisele isono esikhulu kangaka?
22 Wathi uAron, Umsindo wenkosi yam mawungavuthi. Wena uyabazi aba bantu, ukuba banobubi.
