9 Kenaka Yehova anati kwa Yoswa, “Kuyambira tsopano anthu a ku Igupto sadzakunyozaninso.” Nʼchifukwa chake malowa anatchedwa Giligala mpaka lero.
10 Akupumulabe ku Giligala kuja mʼchigwa cha Yeriko, Aisraeli anachita chikondwerero cha Paska madzulo pa tsiku la 14 la mwezi woyamba womwewo. 11 Mmawa mwake ndi pamene anayamba kudya zakudya za mʼdziko la Kanaani.

Kuyambira nthawi imeneyo Aisraeli anayamba kudya chakudya cha mʼdziko la Kanaani.
