31 “Ngizabeka umngcele wenu kusukela eLwandle Olubomvu kuze kuyefika elwandle lwamaFilisti, kusukela enkangala kuze kuyefika emfuleni*+ ngoba ngizanikela izakhamizi zelizwe esandleni senu njalo lizazisusa phambi kwenu.+ 32 Akumelanga lenze isivumelwano labo kumbe labonkulunkulu babo.+ 33 Akumelanga bahlale elizweni lenu ukuze bangabangeli ukuthi lenze isono kimi. Nxa lingakhonza onkulunkulu babo, kuzakuba ngumjibila kini.”+

3 Lingendiselani lazo izizwe lezi. Lingendiseli amadodakazi enu emadodaneni azo kumbe lithathele amadodana enu abafazi phakathi kwamadodakazi azo,+ 4 ngoba azakwenza amadodana enu aphambuke, ayekele ukungilandela ayekhonza abanye onkulunkulu.+ Lapho-ke ulaka lukaJehova luzavutha phezu kwenu ahle alitshabalalise masinyane.+

12 “Kodwa nxa lingaphambuka lilandele izizwe lezi eziseleyo,+ lendiselane lazo+ njalo libe lobudlelwano lazo, 13 lihle lazi ukuthi uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu kasoze aqhubeke ezixotsha phambi kwenu+ izizwe lezi. Zizakuba ngumjibila kini lomchilo wokulibhaxabula emhlane+ kanye lameva emehlweni enu, lize liphele lonke elizweni leli elihle uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu aliphe lona.

2 Ngakho lani lingenzi isivumelwano labantu abahlala elizweni leli+ futhi kumele lidilize ama-alithare abo.’+ Kodwa lina kalingilalelanga.+ Kungani lingangilalelanga? 3 Yikho lami ngathi, ‘Kangisoze ngibasuse phakathi kwenu.+ Bazakuba ngumjibila kini+ njalo onkulunkulu babo bazalidukisa.’”+
