Bwile obu bwona bahongi̱ baanateelagha bi̱i̱di̱yo byabo. 10 Bhaatu Yosuwa aalaghila bantu aba ati, “Mutagugangana, mu̱holi̱ye kandi mutabu̱gha kighambo kyona, ku̱hi̱ki̱ya kilo eki nkubasi̱i̱mi̱lani̱ya kugugangana, haaliibuwo mwagugangana.” 11 Yosuwa aalaghila bantu aba kutwala sandu̱u̱ku̱ ya ndaghaano ya Mukama kandi kweli̱ghi̱i̱li̱li̱ya kibugha eki mulundi ghumui, du̱mbi̱ baakuuka hambali baghooneeye baalaalayo.
12 Yosuwa aamuka nkyambisi cu̱i̱ ya kilo ekyalabhi̱yʼo kandi bahongi̱ baaheeka sandu̱u̱ku̱ ya ndaghaano ya Mukama. 13 Bahongi̱ musanju̱ abakwete bi̱i̱di̱yo byabo baaghenda bahikiiye sandu̱u̱ku̱ ya ndaghaano ya Mukama mbanateela bi̱i̱di̱yo. Basaasa abakwete byakulwani̱i̱si̱ya baahikila kandi baasilikale banji baaghenda balabhi̱ye sandu̱u̱ku̱ ya ndaghaano ya Mukama, bahongi̱ mbanateela bi̱i̱di̱yo. 14 Haa kilo kyakabili baatodha baalubhatanga kandi beeli̱ghi̱i̱li̱li̱ya kibugha eki mulundi ghumui, du̱mbi̱ baakuuka hambali baabaagha baghooneeye. Eki baakikola haabwa bilo mukaagha.

Bhaatu kilo eki beeli̱ghi̱i̱li̱li̱ya kibugha eki milundi musanju̱. 16 Mulundi ghwamusanju̱ oghu, obu bahongi̱ aba baateeye bi̱i̱di̱yo byabo, Yosuwa aalaghila bantu aba ati, “Mugugangane, nanga Mukama aabahaaye kibugha eki! 17 Kibugha eki na bintu byona ebilimu mu̱bi̱hwelekeeleli̱ye nga kihonguwa ewaa Mukama. Bhaatu Lahaabbu muumalaaya na bantu boona abali mu numba yee mubaleke bali boomi̱i̱li̱, nanga niiye akabi̱sa bambega aba twatu̱mi̱ye. 18 Mutatwala kintu kyona eki̱heebeu̱weyo kuhwelekeelela. Kaakuba mutwala haa bintu ebi, mukuleetela kijibu Banai̱saaleeli̱ kandi kuhwelekeelela hambali baghooneeye. 19 Bintu byona ebi̱koleeu̱we mu siliva, feeja na byoma, ni bintu bi̱hi̱ki̱li̱i̱ye bya Mukama, nahabweki mubileete mu sitoowa ya Mukama.”
20 Obu bahongi̱ baateeye bi̱i̱di̱yo, bantu baa I̱saaleeli̱ makaaghu̱wa elaka lyabiyo, baatandika kugugangana nʼelaka lyamaani̱, du̱mbi̱ bisiika bya kibugha eki byegenga, bantu aba boona baataaha mu kibugha eki kandi baakikwata. 21 Baahwelekeeleli̱ya na bihiyo byabo bintu byona ebyabaagha mu kibugha eki. Baata basaasa, bakali̱, baana, bantu bakulu, nte, ntaama, mbu̱li̱ na ndogooi̱.
22 Yosuwa aaghila basaasa babili abaabegi̱ye nsi eghi ati, “Mughende mu numba ya malaaya oghu kandi mumuuyeyo na bantu boona abali mu numba yee, ngoku mwalahiiye ewe.” 23 Basaasa abaabegi̱ye aba baaghenda baataaha mu numba eghi kandi baatwesi̱yamu Lahaabbu, ese wee, ni̱na wee, baana baani̱na wee na nganda siye syona esyabaagha naye, baabata enja ya hambali Banai̱saaleeli̱ baghooneeye.
24 Du̱mbi̱ Banai̱saaleeli̱ booki̱ya na mulilo kibugha eki na bintu byona ebyabaaghamu. Bintu ebi̱koleeu̱we mu siliva, feeja na byoma, baabitwala kandi baabibiika mu sitoowa ya numba ya Mukama. 25 Bhaatu Yosuwa aajuna bwomi̱i̱li̱ bwa Lahaabbu muumalaaya, ka ya ese wee, na bantu boona abaakalagha naye, nanga akabi̱sa basaasa aba Yosuwa aatu̱mi̱ye kubega kibugha kya Yeli̱ko.
