6 Yiba nesibindi womelele,+ kuba nguwe oya kubangela esi sizwana silidle ilifa+ ilizwe endafungayo ukulinika ookhokho baso.+

18 Ngoku uYehova wathi kuYoshuwa: “Yolulela intshuntshe esesandleni sakho ngaseAyi,+ kuba ndiya kuyinikela esandleni sakho.”+ Ngako oko uYoshuwa wayolulela ngasesixekweni intshuntshe eyayisesandleni sakhe.

14 Koko uYehova wamjonga waza wathi: “Hamba ngala mandla akho,+ yaye ngokuqinisekileyo uya kumsindisa uSirayeli entendeni kaMidiyan.+ Andikuthumelanga na?”+

32 Ngoko uYifeta wadlulela koonyana baka-Amoni ukuze alwe nabo, yaye uYehova wabanikela esandleni sakhe.
