UDuteronomi 2
Uhambo oluya eKhanani
1Sase siphenduka, samuka saya ehlane endleleni yaseShelfsee, njengokukhuluma kukaJehova kimi; sazungeza intaba yaseSeyiri izinsuku eziningi.
2UJehova wakhuluma kimi, wathi:
3Sekuyisikhathi eside niyizungeza le ntaba; jikelani enyakatho.
4Yala abantu, uthi: Niyakudabula umkhawulo wabafowenu, abantwana bakwa-Esawu, abahlala eSeyiri; bayakunesaba; khona-ke zinakekeleni.
5Ungagxambukeli kubo; ngokuba angiyikuninika okwezwe labo, ngisho nobubanzi bonyawo; ngoba intaba iSeyiri ngamnika uEsawu ibe yilifa.
6Kumelwe nithenge kubo inyama ngemali, ukuze nidle; futhi kumelwe uthenge kubo amanzi ngemali, ukuze uphuze.
7Ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho ukubusisile emsebenzini wonke wesandla sakho; Uyakwazi ukuhamba kwakho kulolugwadule olukhulu; ngoba le minyaka engamashumi amane uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho wayenawe; entula lutho.
8Sase sidlula kubafowethu, abantwana bakwa-Esawu, ababehlala eSeyiri, ngendlela yase-Elati nase-Esiyoni-Geberi, saphenduka sahamba ngendlela yasehlane lakwaMowabi.
9UJehova wathi kimi: “Ningabakhathazi abakwaMowabi, ningalwi nabo empini, ngokuba angiyikuninika izwe labo libe yifa; ngoba iAri ngalinika abantwana bakaLothi njengelifa.
10Ama-Emi ayehlala kulo, abantu abakhulu, abaningi nabade njengama-Anaki;
11nabo babebalwa njengamaRefa njengama-Anaki; kepha abakwaMowabi bababiza ngokuthi ama-Emi.
12AmaHori ahlala eSeyiri kuqala; kepha abantwana bakwa-Esawu babalandela, babachitha phambi kwabo, bahamba bahlala endaweni yabo; njengalokho u-Israyeli enza ezweni lefa lakhe uJehova abanika lona.
13Sukumani manje, niwele umfula iSeredi; Futhi sawela umfudlana iSeredi.
14Isikhathi esahamba ngaso sisuka eKadeshi-bharineya saze sawela umfudlana iSeredi, sasiyiminyaka engamashumi amathathu nesishiyagalombili; saze saqedwa sonke isizukulwane samadoda okulwa phakathi kwempi, njengokukhuluma kukaJehova kubo ngesifungo.
15Ngokuba isandla sikaJehova impela sasimelene nabo ukubachitha empini baze baqedwe.
16Kwathi lapho onke amaqhawe esephelile, efa phakathi kwabantu;
17uJehova wakhuluma kimi, wathi:
18Namuhla niyakudabula i-Ari, ugu lwakwaMowabi;
19“Nxa usondela kubantwana bakwa-Amoni, ungabakhathazi, ungaphambanisi nabo; ngokuba angiyikuninika ifa lezwe labantwana bakwa-Amoni; ngoba ngalinika abantwana bakaLothi njengelifa.
20(Lalibhekwa njengezwe lamaRefa; amaRefa ayehlala kulo ezikhathini zasendulo; abantwana bakwa-Amoni bababiza ngokuthi amaSamumu;
21abantu abakhulu, abaningi nabade njengama-Anaki; kepha uJehova wabachitha phambi kwabo; babalandela, bahlala endaweni yabo.
22Njengalokho wenza kubantwana bakwa-Esawu ababehlala eSeyiri, lapho ebhubhisa amaHori phambi kwabo; bawalandela, bahlala ezindaweni zabo kuze kube namuhla.
Ama-Israyeli amnqoba uSihoni
23Ama-Avi ayehlala eHazerimi kwaze kwaba se-Asa, amaKafitori aphuma eKafitori, awachitha, ahlala endaweni yawo.)
24Sukumani, nihambe, niwele umfula i-Arinoni; bhekani, ngiyakunikela uSihoni umAmori, inkosi yaseHeshiboni, nezwe lakhe esandleni senu; qala ukulidla futhi ulwe naye empini.
25Namuhla ngizoqala ukubeka ukwesatshwa kwakho nokwesaba kwakho phezu kwezizwe ezingaphansi kwalo lonke izulu eziyozwa ngawe futhi zithuthumele futhi zikwesabe.
26Ngathuma izithunywa zisehlane laseKedemoti kuSihoni inkosi yaseHeshiboni ngamazwi okuthula, ngathi:
27Ngivumele ngidabule izwe lakho; Ngizohamba ngomgwaqo omkhulu, angiyikujika kwesokudla noma kwesokunxele.
28Kumelwe ungithengisele inyama ngemali, ukuze ngidle; ungiphe amanzi ngemali, ngiphuze; kodwa ngiyakubhodloza ngezinyawo zami;
29njengalokho benza kimi abantwana bakwa-Esawu abahlala eSeyiri nabakwaMowabi abahlala e-Ari, ngize ngiwele iJordani, ngingene ezweni uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu azosinika lona.
30Kepha uSihoni inkosi yaseHeshiboni akasivumelanga ukuba sidlule kuye, ngokuba uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho wenza lukhuni umoya wakhe, wayenza lukhuni inhliziyo yakhe ukuba amnikele esandleni sakho, njengokuba kubonakala namuhla.
31UJehova wathi kimi: “Bheka, sengiqalile ukunikela uSihoni nezwe lakhe phambi kwakho; qalani ukulidla, ukuze lidle ilifa lelizwe lakhe.
32USihoni wayesephuma wasihlangabeza, yena nabo bonke abantu bakhe, ukulwa eJahazi.
33UJehova uNkulunkulu wethu wamnikela phambi kwethu; futhi samnqoba yena namadodana akhe nabo bonke abantu bakhe.
34Sayithatha yonke imizi yakhe ngaleso sikhathi, sashaya abesilisa nabesifazane nabantwana bayo yonke imizi ngesiqalekiso; asinamuntu osele.
35Izinkomo kuphela esazithathela zona njengempango, nempango yemizi sayithumba.
36Kusukela e-Aroweri eliseceleni komfula i-Arinoni, nokusukela emzini oseceleni komfula kuze kufike kwaGileyadi, akubangakho umuzi owawunamandla kunathi; uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu usinike konke.
37Kuphela ezweni labantwana bakwa-Amoni anifikanga kuzo, nakuyo yonke indawo yomfula iJabhoki, nasemizini yasezintabeni, nakho konke uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu asenqabele ngakho.
