1 Nahano anabwira Musa kwokuno: 2 «Utumage abandu, bagendi gahiriza ikihugo kyeꞌKaanani. Yikyo kihugo, ngakiheereza abandu baani Abahisiraheeri. Mu ngiisi mulala, ulungike mweꞌkirongoozi kiguma-kiguma.»3 Kwokwo, Musa anatuma abagahirizi ukulyoka yaho mwiꞌshamba lyeꞌParaani. Yabo bagahirizi booshi, bâli riiri bakulu baꞌBahisiraheeri. 4-15 Naꞌmaziina gaabo, go gaaga:
Mu beene Rubeni, hâli Shamuwa mugala Zakuri.
Na mu beene Simyoni, hâli Shafaati mugala Hoori.
Na mu beene Yuda, hâli Kalebu mugala Yefune.

16 Yabo bo bakulu baꞌBahisiraheeri, Musa akatuma, kwo bagendi gahiriza ikihugo kyeꞌKaanani. (Hosheya mugala Nuuni, Musa akamúyinika iziina lya Yoshwa.)
17 Yabo bagahirizi booshi, ikyanya Musa akabatuma, anababwira: «Muzamukirage iriira munda i Negebu, munahike mu migazi. 18 Mugendi yitegeereza ngiisi kweꞌkihugo kiri. Munalangiize iri abandu baamwo bali bihagarusi, kandi iri nanga. Munalole kwakundi, iri bangaba bali katundu, kandi iri bagerwa. 19 Ikihugo kyabo, ka kiri kiija, kandi iri kibi? Noꞌtwaya twakyo, kuti tuli? Ka tuzungulusirwi neꞌnzitiro ngomu, kandi iri nanga? 20 Yikyo kihugo, ka kihiiti inagiira, kandi iri ndaayo? Ka hali ibiti, kandi iri ndaabyo? Ikyanya mugagaluka, mugire umwete gwoꞌkugalukana neꞌmimbu.» (Yikyo kyanya, imizabibu yâli koli tondiiri ukuyera.)
21 Kwokwo, yabo bagahirizi banazamuuka, banagendi gahiriza ikihugo, ukulyokera mwiꞌshamba lyeꞌSiini, halinde i Rehobu, mu njira yoꞌkugenda i Hamaati. 22 Banalenga mu Negebu, banagenderera halinde i Heburooni. Iri bakahika ho, banagwana beene Ahimaanu, na Shesayi, na Talimaayi. Yabo, bo bakakomooka ku Hanaaki. (Yako kaaya keꞌHeburooni, kakahisa imyaka irinda kayubasirwi, ku kyanya akaaya keꞌSowani, ka mu kihugo kyeꞌMiisiri, kakatondeera ukuyubakwa.)
23 Yabo bandu, iri bakahika mu ndekeera yeꞌHeshikooli, banatema itavi lyoꞌmuzabibu íryâli hembiri bweneene. Banalishwekera ku kiti kyoꞌkubetulira, gira abandu babiri bakizi libetula. Banatwala neꞌbitumbwe byaꞌmakoma-manga, na byoꞌmutiini. 24 Yaho handu, íbikatuma bagahahamagala Heshikooli, bwaꞌBahisiraheeri bakahagwana lirya itavi, banalitema.
25 Yabo bagahirizi, iri bakahisa isiku makumi gana bagweti bagagahiriza ikihugo, 26 banagalukira mwiꞌshamba lyeꞌParaani, imunda Musa na Harooni, kiri naꞌbandi Bahisiraheeri booshi, kwo bâli shumbisiri i Kadeeshi. Banaganuulira booshi ngiisi byo bakabona mu kihugo, banabayereka neꞌmbuto zaakyo.
27 Banabwira Musa: «Yikyo kihugo kyo utátutumiri mwo, twakiyingira mwo, twanabona kwo kiyeziri mwaꞌmata, noꞌbuuki. Neꞌmbuto zaamwo, zeezino. 28 Si abatuulaga baamwo, yehee! Balyagagi bihagarusi bweneene. Noꞌtwaya twabo, tudediiri, tunali tuhamu. Iyo munda, tukabona kiri naꞌBahanaaki.
29 «Ha Negebu, hatuuziri Abahamareki. Na mu migazi, mutuuziri Abahiti, naꞌBayebuusi, naꞌBahamoori. Na ku Nyaaja Mediterane, kutuuziri Abakaanani. Baabo, batuuziri na ha butambi lyoꞌlwiji Yorodaani.»
30 Balya Bahisiraheeri kwo bâli yimaaziragi imbere lya Musa, banatondeera ukuyidodomba. Lyeryo, Kalebu anagira mbu abahoohye, ti: «Nanga, maashi! Kiriira kihugo, tuyami gendi kigwata. Tugaahasha ma!»
31 Balya baabo bagahirizi, banalahira: «Aahabi! Tutangagendi bateera. Si balyagagi bihagarusi bweneene, ukutuhima.»
32 Balya bagahirizi, banalumbuusa ibibeesha mu Bahisiraheeri, ti: «Kirya kihugo, ikyanya tukakigahiriza, twanabona kwo ngiisi ábatuuziri mwo, kigweti kigaabalya. Neꞌri tukalola abandu baakyo, twanabona kwo bali bifigisi bweneene. 33 E maashi, tukabona ibihagarusi byaꞌBahanaaki. Twehe imbere lyabo, tushuba mu yibonekera nga tuhaazi. Nabo kwakundi, kwokwo kwo bashuba mu tubona.»
