2. “Kwintaba iSinayi gqi qhaphu *uNdikhoyo;njengelanga wathi gqi kwaEdom.Wabengezela evela kwiintaba zeParan;wavela enamawaka-waka ezithunywa zakhe,kudangazela okomlilo ngasekunene kwakhe.
3. Hayi ukubathanda kwakho abantu bakho!Ewe, uyabafumbatha bonke abalibango lakho.Kungoko basuka bathi guqaqa ezinyaweni zakho,bethobela umnwe wakho,
4. mhla uMosis wabanika umthetho,olibango lebandla likaSirayeli.
5. Wena Ndikhoyo waba ngukumkani kaYeshurun,zakuba zihlanganisene iinkokheli zabantu,zakuba ziqukene izizwe zakwaSirayeli.”
6. Wasuka ke uMosis wathetha ngoRubhen, wenjenje:“URubhen makahlal' ehleli angaze atshitshe,nakuba engengakanani ngamanani.”
7. NgoJuda wathi:“Kambe ke, wena Ndikhoyo,bek' iindlebe umphulaphule uJuda,ubuye ummanye namawabo.Yena wazilwela ngezo zandla zakhe, Ndikhoyo,ke ngoko msize ezintshabeni zakhe.”
8. NgoLevi wathi:“Ndikhoyo, *iiurim neethumim otyhila intando yakho ngazo,zezentandane yakho uLevi,yena lowo wamvavanyayo eMasa,owabambana naye emanzin' aseMeribha.
9. Ngoyise nonina wathi: ‘Andiseva ngani.’Ngabantakwabo wathi: ‘Andinazi.’Ngabantwana bakhe wathi: ‘Andisenanto nani.’Ewe, yena wanonophela ilizwi lakho,wanyaniseka kumnqophiso wakho.
10. Uya kufundisa uSirayeli imimiselo yakho,ayale abantu ngomyalelo wakho.Uya kwenza isiqhumiso phambi kwakho,anikele namadini atshiswayo eqongeni lakho.
11. Ndikhoyo, nceda umthi jize ngokomelela,waneliseke ngumsebenzi awenzayo.Ke bona abamvukelayo bavikive;abamthiyayo mabangaze babuye bavele.”
12. NgoBhenjamin wathi:“UNdikhoyo uyamthanda uBhenjamin;yena usoloko emalusile.Uhlala ekhuselekile imini yonke;yena umi phantsi kwephiko lakhe.”
13. NgoJosefu wathi:“Ke lona ithamsanqa likaNdikhoyo likwaJosefu;umhlaba wakhe mawunyakamiswe yimvulanangamanzi emithombo ampompoza phantsi komhlaba.
14. Ilanga nenyanga mazimchumise,ziwulize ngeyona-yona mveliso.
15. Iintaba zamandulo mazivathe iziqhamo;iinduli zamhlamnene maziphuphume imveliso.
16. Umhlaba wakhe mawuvelise eyona-yona;uthamsanqelwe kukulunga kukaNdikhoyoowayekho etyholweni elivuthayo.La mathamsanqa makavele kwaJosefu,yena olitshawe phakathi kwabantakwabo.
17. UJosefu nkunzi yakwabani ukomelela,emise okwenyathi –mpondo ezo zizezamawaka akwaManasenamashumi amawaka akwaEfrayim.Ngazo uhlabanisela izizwe;ewe, nezo ziseziphelweni zehlabathi.”
18. NgoZebhulon noIsakare wathi:“KwaZebhulon makube yimihlali ukucanda elwandle;kwaIsakare makube yimivuyo ukuhlala ekhaya.
