Morena o tla le nea naha ena e be lefa la lona.
23“Empa ha le sa etse jwalo, e tla ba le sitetswe Morena, mme le ke ke la phema kotlo ya sebe sa lona. 24Hahelang bana ba lona metse, le hahe le masaka a dinku tsa lona, mme le etse seo le se tshepisitseng.”
25Yaba bara ba Gade le bara ba Rubene ba re ho Moshe: “Bahlanka ba hao ba tla etsa jwalokaha monga rona a re laela. 26Bana ba rona, le basadi ba rona, le mehlape ya rona, le makgomo wohle a rona, tsena di tla sala Gileade. 27Empa bahlanka ba hao ba tla tshelela mose, mohlabani e mong le e mong o tla hlomella ntwa moo Morena a ntseng a bona jwalokaha monga rona a boletse.”
