Joshua akatuma varume vabve Jeriko vaende Ai, guta riri parutivi rweBheti‐avheni, kumabvazuva eBheteri, akataura navo, akati, “Kwirai, mundoshora nyika.” Varume vakakwira, vakandoshora Ai, Vakadzokera kuna Joshua, vakati kwaari, “Vanhu vose ngavarege kukwira; varume vanenge zviuru zviviri kana zvitatu ngavaende kundorwa neAi, asi vanhu vose ngavarege havo kutambudzwa kuendako, nokuti vashoma havo.” Naizvozvo varume vanenge zviuru zviviri kana zvitatu vakaendako, ivo vakatiza pamberi pavarume veAi.

Naizvozvo mangwanani munofanira kuuya kuno muri dzinza nedzinza. Dzinza rinenge rabatwapo naTenzi richapinda mudariro mhuri nemhuri. Kwozotiwo mhuri yomo inenge yabatwapo naTenzi, inofanira kupindawo mudariro imba nemba. Vembawo inenge yabatwa naTenzi vachapinda mudariro vachiteverana munhu nomunhu. Munhu anobatwa aine zvinhu izvozvo zvakaturirwa kuti zviparadzwe Mwari, anosungirwa kupiswa nomoto pamwechete nezvinhu zvake zvose nokuti atyora chitsidzirano chawakanzi naTenzi chichengetwe, uyewo nokuti akaita zvinonyadza muIsiraeri.’ ” Joshuwa akamuka rungwanangwana akati vaIsiraeri vauye mberi dzinza nedzinza, ndokubva kwabatwa dzinza rokwaJudha. Akapinza dzinza rokwaJudha mudariro, kukabatwa vemhuri yokwaZera. Akapinza vemhuri yokwaZera mudariro, vachiteverana munhu nomunhu kukabatwa vemba yokwaZabhudhi. Akapinza mudariro vemba yake iyeyu vachiteverana munhu nomunhu kukabatwa Akani mwanakomana waKarumi, mwanakomana waZera wedzinza rokwaJudha. Joshuwa akati kuna Akani, “Mwanangu pano apaka, chiremekedza Tenzi, Mwari wavaIsiraeri umurumbidze, ureurure kwandiri zvawakaita usandivanzire.” Akani akapindura Joshuwa achiti, “Chokwadi ndakatadzira Tenzi Mwari wavaIsiraeri. Zvandakaita ndezvizvi. Pandakaona hanzu yegemenzi yamandiriri kunaka yokuShinari pazvinhu zvakanga zvapambwa, nemari yamashekeri yesirivha inorema makirogiramu maviri, nechidimbu chendarama chino uremu hunopfuura chikamu chapakati napakati chekirogiramu, ndakazvichiva ndikazvitora. Zvino zvinhu izvozvo ndakazviviga muvhu, mutendhe yangu, pakati, sirivha ndiyo iri nechapasi pazvo.” Joshuwa akatuma nhume dzikamhanya kutendhe iroro, wanei zvakavigwa mutendhe rake imomo, sirivha iri nechepasipasi. Vakazviburitsa mukati metendhe imomo, vakaenda nazvo kwaiva naJoshuwa navaIsiraeri vose, vakazviti ware ware pasi pana Tenzi. Joshuwa pamwechete navaIsiraeri vose vakatora Akani mwanakomana waZera, nesirivha iya nehanzu iya nechidimbu chendarama chiya, vakatorawo vana vake vakomana navasikana, pamwechete nemombe dzake namadhongi nehwai dzake netendhe rake netwake twose, vakaenda nazvo kubani reAkori. Joshuwa akati, “Ko iwe wakatipinzirei munhamo yakadai? Nhasi uno, Tenzi akupinzawo munhamo.” VaIsiraeri vose vakamutema namabwe, pamwechete navaaiva navo, vakavapisa nomoto. Vakatutira murwi wamatombo mukuru pamusoro pake, uchiripo nanhasi uno, hasha dzaTenzi dzakanga dzaviruka dzikanyevenuka. Saka nanhasi uno zita rebani iroro richinzi, Bani reAkori.
