13 Kwathi esebone ukuthi ushiyile ingubo esandleni sakhe, wabaleka,
14 wabiza abantu bendlu, wakhuluma kubo, wathi: “Bonani usilethele umHeberu ukuba adlale ngathi; uze kimina ukuba alale nami; ngamemeza ngezwi elikhulu;
15 wathi ezwa ukuthi ngiphakamisa izwi lami ngimemeza, washiya ingubo yakhe kimi, wabaleka, wagijimela phandle.”
16 Wayesebeka le ngubo kuye, yaze yafika ekhaya inkosi yakhe.
17 Wakhuluma kuyo wona lawa mazwi, wathi: “Le nceku engumHeberu, osilethele yona, ize kimi ukuba idlale ngami;
18 kwathi ukuba ngiphakamise izwi lami ngimemeza, yashiya ingubo yayo kimi, yabalekela phandle.”
