4 Ngokuba oonyana bakaYosefu babezizizwe ezibini, uManase noEfrayim; ke abaLevi ababanikanga sabelo ezweni elo, babanika kuphela imizi yokuhlala, namadlelo ayo emfuyo yabo nempahla yabo.
5 Njengoko uYehova wamwiselayo uMoses umthetho, benjenjalo oonyana bakaSirayeli, balaba ilizwe.
6 Basondela oonyana bakaYuda kuYoshuwa eGiligali. Wathi uKalebhi unyana kaYefune, umKenazi, kuye, Ùyalazi wena ilizwi awalithethayo uYehova kuMoses umntu kaThixo, ngenxa yam nangenxa yakho, eKadeshe-bharneha.
7 Ndandiminyaka imashumi mané ndizelwe, ekususweni kwam nguMoses umkhonzi kaYehova, eKadeshe-bharneha, ukuba ndiye kulihlola ilizwe; ndambuyisela ilizwi njengoko bekusentliziyweni yam.
8 Abazalwana bam, abanyukáyo nam, bayinyibilikisa intliziyo yabantu; ke mna ndakuzalisa ukumlandela uYehova uThixo wam.
9 Wafunga ke uMoses ngaloo mini, esithi, Inene, ilizwe elinyathelwe lunyawo lwakho loba lilifa lakho, neloonyana bakho, kude kuse ephakadeni, ngokuba ukuzalisile ukumlandela uYehova uThixo wam.
10 Khangela ke ngoko, uYehova undisindisile njengoko watshoyo, le minyaka imashumi mané anamihlanu, kususela koko walithethayo uYehova elo lizwi kuMoses, oko amaSirayeli abehamba entlango; yabona ke, ngoku namhla ndiminyaka imashumi asibhozo anamihlanu ndizelwe.
