19 Ngibeka amazulu lomhlaba ukuthi kube ngofakazi abamelane lani lamuhla, bokuthi sengibeke ukuphila kanye lokufa phambi kwenu, isibusiso kanye lesiqalekiso+ futhi kumele likhethe ukuphila ukuze liphile+ lina kanye lezizukulwane zenu,+

15 Kodwa nxa lingafuni ukukhonza uJehova khethani lamuhla ukuthi lizakhonza bani.+ Lingazikhethela ukukhonza onkulunkulu ababekhonzwa ngokhokho benu ngaphetsheya komfula*+ kumbe onkulunkulu bama-Amori elihlala elizweni lawo.+ Kodwa mina lemuli yami sizakhonza uJehova.”

22 UJoshuwa wasesithi ebantwini: “Liyazifakazela lina ngokwenu ukuthi selikhethe ukukhonza uJehova.”+ Bona baphendula bathi: “Ye lokho siyakufakaza.”
