14 “Yikho-ke mesabeni uJehova limkhonze, libe qotho kuye* futhi lithembeke.*+ Susani onkulunkulu ababekhonzwa ngokhokho benu ngaphetsheya komfula* laseGibhithe,+ likhonze uJehova.

23 UJoshuwa wasesithi: “Nxa kunjalo susani onkulunkulu bezizweni abaphakathi kwenu, libeke inhliziyo zenu kuJehova uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.”

7 Abako-Israyeli benza okubi phambi kukaJehova,* bamkhohlwa uJehova uNkulunkulu wabo futhi bakhonza oBhali+ lezithombe zika-Ashera.*+
