UJoshuwa 24:7-15 Contemporary Zulu Bible 2024 (CZB24)
Lapho bembiza uJehova, wabeka ubumnyama phakathi kwenu nabaseGibhithe, waletha ulwandle phezu kwabo, wabasibekela; amehlo enu akubona engakwenzayo eGibithe, nahlala isikhathi eside ehlane. Nganingenisa ezweni lama-Amori ahlala ngaphesheya kweJordani; futhi balwa nawe; ngiwanikele esandleni senu, ukuze lidle ilifa lelizwe lawo; ngabachitha phambi kwakho. UBalaki indodana kaSipori, inkosi yakwaMowabi, wasukuma walwa no-Israyeli, wathumela wabiza uBileyamu indodana kaBeyori ukuba aniqalekise. Kepha angivumanga ukumlalela uBileyamu; ngakho-ke usakubusisa; ngalokho nganisindisa esandleni sakhe. Nawela iJordani, nafika eJeriko, amadoda aseJeriko alwa nani, ama-Amori, namaPherizi, namaKhanani, namaHeti, namaGirigashi, namaHivi, namaJebusi; ngiwanikele esandleni sakho. Ngathuma iminyovu phambi kwenu, eyawaxosha phambi kwenu, amakhosi amabili ama-Amori; kodwa kungabi ngenkemba yakho noma ngomnsalo wakho. Nganinika izwe eningalisebenzelanga, nemizi eningayakhanga, nahlala kuyo; izivini neminqumo eningayitshalanga niyadla. Mesabeni manje uJehova, nimkhonze ngobuqotho nangeqiniso; nisuse onkulunkulu ababakhonzayo oyihlo phesheya koMfula naseGibithe; nikhonze uJehova. Uma kukubi emehlweni enu ukumkhonza uJehova, zikhetheleni namuhla ukuthi ngubani eniyakumkhonza; noma onkulunkulu ababakhonzayo oyihlo ababephesheya komfula, nonkulunkulu bama-Amori enihlala ezweni lawo; kepha mina nendlu yami siyakumkhonza uJehova.
UJoshuwa 24:7-15 IsiZulu 2020 (ZUL20)
Lapho bekhala kuSimakade, waletha ubumnyama phakathi kwenu nabaseGibhithe. Wenza ulwandle ukuba lubuyele phezu kwabo lubagubuzele; nakubona engakwenza kwabaseGibhithe; emveni kwalokho nahlala ehlane izinsuku eziningi. “ ‘Nganingenisa ezweni lama-Amori ahlala phesheya kweJordani, alwa nani; ngawanikela esandleni senu, nalidla izwe lawo; ngawabhubhisa phambi kwenu. Inkosi uBhalaki, indodana kaZiphori wakwaMowabi, waphuma ukuyolwa no-Israyeli. Wathumela ukuyobiza uBhileyamu indodana kaBheyori ukuba aniqalekise, kodwa angimlalelanga uBhileyamu; ngakho-ke wanibusisa, nganikhulula esandleni sakhe. “ ‘Lapho niwela iJordani, nafika eJerikho; izakhamuzi zalo zalwa nani, kanjalo nama-Amori, amaPherizi, amaKhanani, amaHithi, amaGirigashi, amaHivi, namaJebusi, ngabanikela esandleni senu. Ngathumela iminyovu phambi kwenu, eyaxosha phambi kwenu amakhosi amabili ama-Amori, kwakungengankemba yakho noma ngomnsalo wakho. Nganinika izwe eningalikhandlekelanga nemizi eningayakhanga, nihlala kuyo; nidla izithelo zemivini nezeminqumo eningakutshalanga.’ “Manje mesabeni uSimakade, nimkhonze ngobuqotho nangeqiniso, nibasuse onkulunkulu ababekhonzwa ngokhokho besengaphesheya komfula naseGibhithe, nikhonze uSimakade. Uma kukubi emehlweni enu ukukhonza uSimakade, khethani namuhla ukuthi ngubani eniyakumkhonza, noma ngonkulunkulu ababekhonzwa ngokhokho benu besengaphesheya komfula, noma ngonkulunkulu bama-Amori enihlala ezweni lawo, kepha mina nendlu yami siyakumkhonza uSimakade.”
UJoshuwa 24:7-15 IBHAYIBHELI ELINGCWELE (ZUL59)
Lapho bekhala kuJehova, wabeka ubumnyama phakathi kwenu nabaseGibithe, waluhambisa ulwandle phezu kwabo, wabasibekela; amehlo enu abona engakwenzayo eGibithe; nahlala ehlane izinsuku eziningi. “ ‘Nganingenisa ezweni lama-Amori ahlala ngaphesheya kweJordani, alwa nani; ngawanikela esandleni senu, nadla izwe lawo; ngawachitha phambi kwenu. Kwase kuvuka uBalaki indodana kaSipori, inkosi yakwaMowabi, walwa no-Israyeli; wathuma wabiza uBileyamu indodana kaBeyori ukuba aniqalekise, kepha angithandanga ukumlalela uBileyamu, kodwa kakhulu wanibusisa, nganophula esandleni sakhe. “ ‘Nase niwela iJordani, nafika eJeriko; amadoda aseJeriko alwa nani, nama-Amori, namaPherizi, namaKhanani, namaHeti, namaGirigashi, namaHivi, namaJebusi, ngawanikela esandleni senu. Ngathuma iminyovu phambi kwenu eyawaxosha phambi kwenu amakhosi omabili ama-Amori, kungengankemba yakho noma ngomnsalo wakho. Nganinika izwe eningakhandlekanga kulo, nemizi eningayakhanga nihlala nokho kuyo; niyadla ezivinini naseminqumeni eningakutshalanga.’ “Manje yesabani uJehova, nimkhonze ngobuqotho nangeqiniso, nisuse onkulunkulu ababakhonzayo oyihlo phesheya koMfula* naseGibithe, nimkhonze uJehova. Uma kukubi emehlweni enu ukumkhonza uJehova, khethani namuhla ukuthi ngubani eniyakumkhonza, noma onkulunkulu ababakhonzayo oyihlo besengaphesheya koMfula,* noma onkulunkulu bama-Amori enihlala ezweni lawo; kepha mina nendlu yami siyakumkhonza uJehova.”
