10 UBhalamu wathi kuNkulunkulu weqiniso: “UBhalakhi indodana kaZiphori inkosi yakoMowabi ungithumele ilizwi esithi, 11 ‘Abantu abaphume eGibhithe sebegcwele umhlaba wonke.* Woza uzongiqalekisela bona.+ Mhlawumbe ngingalwa labo ngibaxotshe.’”

11 UBhalakhi wasesithi kuBhalamu: “Kanti ungenzani? Ngikulethe lapha ukuthi uzoqalekisa abantu abayizitha zami kodwa akulalutho olwenzileyo ngaphandle kokubabusisa.”+

13 Ngalelolanga ibhuku loMthetho kaMosi labalwa phambi kwabantu+ njalo bathola kubhalwe ukuthi ama-Amoni lamaMowabi+ akumelanga angene ebandleni likaNkulunkulu weqiniso,+ 2 ngoba awazange anike abako-Israyeli ukudla lamanzi kodwa athenga uBhalamu ukuthi abaqalekise.+ Lanxa kunjalo, uNkulunkulu wethu wasitshintsha isiqalekiso leso saba yisibusiso.+
