32 ¹Oonyana bakaRubhen noonyana bakaGadi babenemfuyo eninzi kunene. Bakubona ilizwe laseYazere nelizwe laseGiliyadi, baqaphela ukuba lilungile kwimfuyo. ²Beza oonyana bakaGadi noonyana bakaRubhen, bathi kuMoses, nakuElazare umbingeleli, nakwizikhulu zebandla: ³“IAtaroti, neDibhon, neYazere, neNimra, neHeshbhon, neElale, neSebham, neNebho, neBheyon, ⁴ilizwe uBawo wethu alixabelayo phambi kwebandla lakwaSirayeli, lilizwe elilungele imfuyo; abakhonzi bakho banemfuyo.” ⁵Bathi: “Ukuba sibabalwe nguwe, mabanikwe eli lizwe abakhonzi bakho, libe lelabo; musa ukusiwelisa iYordan.”

⁶Wathi uMoses koonyana bakaGadi noonyana bakaRubhen: “Abazalwana benu baye emfazweni, nina nihleli apha na? ⁷Niyityhafiselani na intliziyo yoonyana bakaSirayeli ukuba bangaweleli kwilizwe abalinikileyo uBawo wethu? ⁸Benza njalo ooyihlo, mhla ndathuma bona eKadeshe-bharneha, ukuba balibone ilizwe. ⁹Benyuka baya esihlanjeni sakwaEshkoli, balibona ilizwe, baza bayityhafisa intliziyo yoonyana bakaSirayeli ukuba bangangeni kwilizwe ababelinikwe nguBawo wethu. ¹⁰Wavutha umsindo kaBawo wethu ngaloo mini, wafunga, esithi: ¹¹Okunene, la madoda enyuka eYiputa, ethabathela kominyaka imashumi mabini ezelwe, anyuse, akayi kulibona ilizwe endalifungela uAbraham, noIsake, noYakobi, ngokuba abazalisanga ukundilandela. ¹²Kuphela nguKalebhi unyana kaYefune, umKenazi, noYoshuwa unyana kaNun, ngokuba bazalisa ukumlandela uBawo wethu. ¹³Wavutha umsindo kaBawo wethu kwaSirayeli; wababhadulisa entlango iminyaka emashumi mane, sada saphela sonke eso sizukulwana, benze okubi phambi koBawo wethu.

¹⁴Nanku ke nivelile endaweni yooyihlo, nina nzala yaboni, ukwandisa okukhona ukuvutha komsindo kaBawo wethu kwaSirayeli! ¹⁵Ukuba nithe nabuya ekumlandeleni, uya kubuya abashiye entlango; notshabalalisa bonke aba bantu.”

¹⁶Basondela kuye, bathi: “Siya kwakha apha izibaya zemfuyo yethu, nemizi yabantwana bethu. ¹⁷Ke thina siya kuxhoba, sikhawulele phambi koonyana bakaSirayeli, side sibafikise kwindawo yabo, bahlale abantwana bethu kwimizi enqatyisiweyo, bekhuselekile kubemi belizwe. ¹⁸Asiyi kubuyela emizini yethu, ade elowo woonyana bakaSirayeli alidle ilifa lakhe. ¹⁹Asiyi kudla ilifa kunye nabo phesheya kweYordan nangaphaya, kuba ilifa lethu lifikile kuthi ngeli cala leYordan, ngasempumalanga.”

²⁰Wathi uMoses kubo: “Ukuba nithe nenjenje—ukuba nithe naxhoba phambi koBawo wethu ukuya emfazweni, ²¹yaza yonke indoda exhobileyo phakathi kwenu iwele iYordan phambi koBawo wethu, ade azigqogqe iintshaba zakhe phambi kwakhe, ²²lada lathotywa ilizwe phambi koBawo wethu, nandule ke nibuye nibe msulwa kuye nakuSirayeli, lize eli lizwe libe lelenu phambi koBawo wethu. ²³Ke ukuba anenjenjalo, yabonani, niya kuba nonile kuBawo wethu; yazini, sona isono senu siya kunifumana. ²⁴Yakhani imizi yabantwana benu, nezibaya zempahla yenu emfutshane, nenze loo nto iyithethileyo imilomo yenu.”

²⁵Bathi oonyana bakaGadi noonyana bakaRubhen kuMoses: “Abakhonzi bakho baya kwenza njengoko inkosi yam iwisa umthetho. ²⁶Abantwana bethu, nabafazi bethu, nempahla yethu emfutshane, nemfuyo yethu yonke, baya kuhlala apho emizini yaseGiliyadi; ²⁷ke abakhonzi bakho, yonke indoda exhobele imfazwe, baya kuwela phambi koBawo wethu ukuya emfazweni, njengoko inkosi yam itshoyo.”

²⁸Wabawisela umthetho ke uMoses ngabo uElazare umbingeleli, noYoshuwa unyana kaNun, neentloko zezindlu zooyise zezizwe zoonyana bakaSirayeli. ²⁹Wathi uMoses kubo: “Ukuba oonyana bakaGadi noonyana bakaRubhen bathe bayiwela nani iYordan, yonke indoda ixhobele imfazwe phambi koBawo wethu, lada lathotywa ilizwe phambi kwenu, nobanika iGiliyadi ibe lelabo. ³⁰Kodwa ukuba abavumanga ukuwela nani bexhobile, mabazuze ilifa labo phakathi kwenu, elizweni lakwaKanan.”

³¹Baphendula oonyana bakaGadi noonyana bakaRubhen, bathi: “Siya kwenza njengoko uBawo wethu atshoyo kubakhonzi bakho. ³²Thina siya kuwela sixhobile phambi koBawo wethu, singene ezweni lakwaKanan, lize ilifa lelizwe lethu libe lelethu ngaphaya kweYordan.”

³³Wabanika ke uMoses—oonyana bakaGadi, noonyana bakaRubhen, nesiqingatha sesizwe sikaManase unyana kaYosefu—ubukumkani bukaSihon ukumkani wama-Amori, nobukumkani bukaOgi ukumkani waseBhashan: ilizwe, nemizi yalo, nemida, nemizi yelizwe elingqongileyo. ³⁴Oonyana bakaGadi bakha iDibhon, neAtaroti, neArohere, ³⁵neAtaroti-shofan, neYazere, neYogebheha, ³⁶neBhete-nimra, neBhete-haran—yimizi enqabileyo, inezibaya zezimvu. ³⁷Oonyana bakaRubhen bakha iHeshbhon, neElale, neKiriyatayim, ³⁸neNebho, neBhahali-mehon (eyathiywa ngokutsha), neSibhema—bayithiya ngamanye amagama imizi abayakhayo. ³⁹Benyuka oonyana bakaMakire unyana kaManase, baya eGiliyadi, bayithimba, bawagqogqa ama-Amori abekhona. ⁴⁰Wayinika ke uMoses iGiliyadi kuMakire unyana kaManase; wahlala kuyo. ⁴¹UYahire unyana kaManase waya wathimba imizana yabo, wayibiza ngokuba yiHavoti-yahire. ⁴²UNobha waya wathimba iKenati nemizana yayo, wayibiza ngokuba yiNobha, ngegama lakhe.
