17 Wawathuma ke uMoses, ukuba aye kuhlola ilizwe lakwaKanan, wathi kuwo, Nyukani nina ngasezantsi, ngale ndlela;
18 nyukani niye entabeni, nilikhangele ilizwe ukuba linjani na, nabantu abemi kulo, ukuba bomelele, bangamaphakuphaku, kusini na; bambalwa, baninzi, kusini na;
19 ukuba linjani na ilizwe abemi kulo, lihle, libi, kusini na; ukuba injani na imizi abemi kuyo, baseminqubeni, basezinqabeni, kusini na;
20 ukuba linjani na ilizwe elo, liyachuma, alichumi, kusini na; linemithi, alinayo, kusini na. Yomelelani, nize neziqhamo zelo zwe. Loo mihla yabe iyimihla yentlahlela yeediliya.
21 Enyuka ke, alihlola ilizwe, ethabathela entlango yaseTsin, esa eRehobhi, ekuyeni eHamati.
22 Enyuka ngezantsi, afike eHebron; babekhona ooAhiman, noSheshayi, noTalemayi, abenzalo ka-Anaki. Ke owaseHebron wawusewakhiwe iminyaka esixhenxe, ingekakhiwa iTsohan eYiputa.
23 Afika esihlanjeni sakwaEshekoli, anqumla khona isebe linesihloko seediliya sisinye, asithwala ngesibonda emabini; nakwiirharnate, nakumakhiwane enjenjalo.
