Ndebele - Joshua - 11

11:1  Kwasekusithi lapho uJabini inkosi yeHazori ekuzwa, wathumela kuJobabi inkosi yeMadoni, lenkosini yeShimironi, lenkosini yeAkishafi,

11:2  lemakhosini ayengenyakatho ezintabeni, lemagcekeni, eningizimu kweKinerothi, lesihotsheni, lemaqaqeni eDori entshonalanga,

11:3  amaKhanani empumalanga lentshonalanga, lamaAmori lamaHethi lamaPerizi lamaJebusi entabeni, lamaHivi ngaphansi kweHermoni elizweni leMizipa.

11:4  Asephuma, wona lawo wonke amabutho awo kanye lawo, abantu abanengi, njengetshebetshebe elisekhunjini lolwandle ngobunengi, lamabhiza lenqola okunengi kakhulu.

11:5  Wonke lamakhosi asehlangana, eza amisa inkamba ndawonye emanzini eMeroma, ukulwa emelene loIsrayeli.

11:6  INkosi yasisithi kuJoshuwa: Ungesabi ngenxa yabo, ngoba kusasa phose ngalesisikhathi ngizawanikela wonke esebulewe phambi kukaIsrayeli; uzaquma imisipha yamabhiza awo, utshise inqola zawo ngomlilo.

11:7  UJoshuwa wasesiza, labo bonke abantu bempi kanye laye, bemelene lawo emanzini eMeroma bawajuma, bawadumela.

11:8  INkosi yasiwanikela esandleni sikaIsrayeli, owawatshaya waxotshana lawo kwaze kwaba seSidoni enkulu, kwaze kwaba seMisirefothi-Mayimi, kwaze kwaba sesihotsheni seMizipa empumalanga. Bawatshaya, kabaze batshiya insali kubo.

11:9  UJoshuwa wasesenza kiwo njengokutsho kweNkosi kuye; waquma imisipha yamabhiza awo, watshisa inqola zawo ngomlilo.

11:10  UJoshuwa wasebuya ngalesosikhathi, wathumba iHazori, watshaya inkosi yayo ngenkemba. Ngoba kuqala iHazori yayiyinhloko yayo yonke leyomibuso.

11:11  Batshaya yonke imiphefumulo eyayikiyo ngobukhali benkemba, bayitshabalalisa; kakusalanga lokukodwa okuphefumulayo; wasetshisa iHazori ngomlilo.

11:12  Yonke-ke imizi yalawomakhosi lamakhosi ayo wonke uJoshuwa wakuthumba, wakutshaya ngobukhali benkemba, wakutshabalalisa, njengokulaya kukaMozisi inceku yeNkosi.

11:13  Kuphela imizi yonke eyayimi emadundulwini ayo uIsrayeli kayitshisanga, ngaphandle kweHazori kuphela uJoshuwa ayitshisayo.

11:14  Layo yonke impango yalimizi lezifuyo abantwana bakoIsrayeli baziphangela. Kuphela bonke abantu babatshaya ngobukhali benkemba baze babachitha; kabatshiyanga loyedwa ophefumulayo.

11:15  Njengalokhu iNkosi yayimlayile uMozisi inceku yayo, ngokunjalo uMozisi wamlaya uJoshuwa, langokunjalo uJoshuwa wakwenza; kasusanga lutho kukho konke iNkosi eyakulaya uMozisi.

11:16  Ngakho uJoshuwa walithatha lelolizwe lonke, izintaba, leningizimu yonke, lelizwe lonke leGosheni, lesihotsha, lamagceke, lentaba zakoIsrayeli, lesigodi sakhe,

11:17  kusukela entabeni yeHalaki eyenyukela eSeyiri, kuze kube seBhali-Gadi esihotsheni seLebhanoni ngaphansi kwentaba yeHermoni. Wawathumba wonke amakhosi abo, wawatshaya wawabulala.

11:18  UJoshuwa wayilwa-ke impi insuku ezinengi lawo wonke lawomakhosi.

11:19  Kakubanga lamuzi owenza ukuthula labantwana bakoIsrayeli ngaphandle kwamaHivi abahlali beGibeyoni; bayithatha yonke ngempi.

11:20  Ngoba kwakuvela eNkosini ukwenza lukhuni inhliziyo zabo ukuze bahlangabezane loIsrayeli empini, ukuze abatshabalalise, ukuze bangazuzi umusa, kodwa ukuze ababhubhise, njengokulaya kweNkosi kuMozisi.

11:21  UJoshuwa wasesiza ngalesosikhathi, waquma amaAnaki asuke ezintabeni, eHebroni, eDebiri, eAnabi, lentabeni zonke zakoJuda, lakuzo zonke intaba zakoIsrayeli; uJoshuwa wawatshabalalisa lemizi yawo.

11:22  Kakusalanga amaAnaki elizweni labantwana bakoIsrayeli; kuphela eGaza, eGathi, leAshidodi, asala.

11:23  UJoshuwa wasethatha ilizwe lonke njengakho konke iNkosi eyakukhuluma kuMozisi. UJoshuwa waselinika laba yilifa kuIsrayeli, njengokwehlukaniswa kwabo ngezizwe zabo. Ilizwe laseliphumula empini.
