7 Niqedelani inhliziyo yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuba bangaweli ukuya ezweni uJehova abanike lona na?
8 Benze njalo oyihlo mhla ngibathuma besuka eKadeshi Barineya ukubona izwe.
9 Ngokuba ekukhuphukeni kwabo ukuya esiGodini sase-Eshikoli balibona izwe, baqeda inhliziyo yabantwana bakwa-Israyeli ukuba bangangeni ezweni uJehova abanike lona.
10 Intukuthelo kaJehova yavutha ngalolo suku, wafunga wathi:
11 ‘Impela kulaba bantu abaphuma eGibithe, kusukela kwabaneminyaka engamashumi amabili kuya phezulu, akayikubona noyedwa izwe engalifungela u-Abrahama, no-Isaka, noJakobe, ngokuba abangilandelanga ngokuphelelyo,
12 ngaphandle kukaKalebi indodana kaJefune, umKhenizi, noJoshuwa indodana kaNuni, ngokuba bamlandele uJehova ngokupheleleyo.’
13 Intukuthelo kaJehova yabavuthela abakwa-Israyeli, wabazulisa ehlane iminyaka engamashumi amane, saze saphela sonke leso sizukulwane esasenzile okubi emehlweni kaJehova.
