2 Wandula ke uYoshuwa unyana kaNun wathuma ngokufihlakeleyo amadoda amabini aseShitim+ njengeentlola, esithi: “Hambani, niye kukhangela ilizwe neYeriko.” Ngoko ke ahamba aza afika endlwini yebhinqa elingunongogo eligama lalo linguRahabhi,+ alalisa apho.

16 andula amanzi ehla phezulu ema ngxi. Aphakama aba njengedama elinye+ kude kakhulu eAdam, isixeko esingasecaleni kwaseTsaretan,+ ngoxa lawo ayesihla esiya ngakulwandle lwaseArabha, uLwandle lweTyuwa,+ aphelayo. Anqamka, yaye abantu badlula phambi kweYeriko.

6 Ke kaloku iYeriko yayivalwe ngokuqinileyo ngenxa yoonyana bakaSirayeli, kungekho bani uphumayo nabani ungenayo.+
