Amanga misasa yawo cifupi na Gibeoni mbamenya nkhondo nawo. ⁶Amuna a Gibeoni atumiza mphangwa iyi kuna Djosuwe ku nsasa wa Gilugali: “Lekani kusiya atumiki anu! Bwerani mwakucimbiza mbatipulumusa—tiphedzeni! Amambo onsene a Aamori a ku mapiri agwirizana toera kutimenya.”

⁷Na tenepo Djosuwe akwira kubuluka ku Gilugali pabodzi na anyankhondo ace onsene—anyankhondo ace amphambvu.

⁸Na Baba wathu apanga Djosuwe: “Leka kuagopa—Ine ndakuperekera iwo m'manja mwako. Nkhabe m'bodzi anakwanisa kuima patsogolo pako.”

⁹Na tenepo Djosuwe aafikira mwakudzidzimusa, mudamala iye kufamba masiku onsene mbakwira kubuluka ku Gilugali. ¹⁰Na Baba wathu aabalangaza patsogolo pa Izarayeli, mbaakantha na kukantha kukulu ku Gibeoni, aathamangisa mu njira inakwira ku Bete-horoni, mbaapha mpaka ku Azeka na Makeda. ¹¹Mukhathawa iwo patsogolo pa Izarayeli, mbaselemuka pa phiri ya Bete-horoni, Baba wathu aaponyera miyala mikulu kubuluka kudzulu, mpaka ku Azeka, mbafa. Azinji mwa iwo afa na matalala kupita adaphiwa na anthu a Izarayeli na supada.

Kodi pyenepi nkhabe kulembwa m'Bukhu ya Djasari? Dzuwa laimirira pakati pa kudzulu mbalikhonda kucimbiza kudoka mukupita ninga ntsiku yakukwana. ^a a v13 Bukhu ya Djasari ikhali bukhu yakale ya Ahebereu yakugumanyiza nyimbo na mitsonga, mbyataika cincino. ¹⁴Nkhabe kudaoneka ntsiku ninga iyi, kutsogolo peno nduli, idabvera Baba wathu fala ya munthu—thangwi Baba wathu amenyera Izarayeli nkhondo.

¹⁵Na tenepo Djosuwe pabodzi na Izarayeli onsene abwerera ku nsasa ku Gilugali.

²⁵Djosuwe aapanga: “Lekani kugopa peno kudzudzumika. Khalani akuwanga na acipapo—pyenepi ndipyo pinafuna kucita Baba wathu kuna anyamalwa onsene anamenyana imwe nawo.”
