47Emva kwalokho wangibuyisela emnyango wendlua, khangela-ke, amanzi aphuma ngaphansib kombundu wendlu ngasempumalangac; ngoba ingaphambili yendlu yayingasempumalanga; lamanzi ehla esuka ngaphansi esuka ehlangothini lokunene lwendlu, ngaseningizimu kwelathid. 2 Wasengikhupha ngendlela yesango ngasenyakathoe, wangibhodisa ngendlela engaphandle wangisa esangweni elingaphandle, ngendlela ekhangele ngasempumalangaf. Khangela-ke, kwageleza amanzi avela ehlangothini lwesokunene. 3 Ekuphumeni kwendodag ngasempumalanga, elentambo esandleni sayoh, yalinganisa izingalo eziyinkulungwane, yangidabulisa phakathi kwamanzi; amanzi afika enqagaleni. 4 Walinganisa futhi inkulungwane, wangidabulisa emanzini; amanzi afika emadolweni. Walinganisa futhi inkulungwane, wangidabulisa; amanzi afika ekhalweni. 5 Walinganisa futhi inkulungwane; kwaba ngumfula engingeke ngiwuchaphe, ngoba amanzi ayesephakeme, amanzi ongantsheza kuwo, umfula owawungeke wachatshwa.

6 Wasesithi kimi: Ubonile yini, ndodana yomuntu? Wasengihambisa, wangenza ngabuyela ekhunjini lomfula. 7 Ekubuyeleni kwami, khangela-ke, ekhunjini lomfula kwakulezihlahla ezinengi kakhulu ngapha langaphai. 8 Wasesithi kimi: La amanzi aphumela ngaselizweni lempumalangaj, ehlele enkangala, abesesiya elwandlek; athi esekhutshelwe olwandlel, amanzi azakwelatshwa. 9 Kuzakuthi-ke, sonke isidalwa esiphilayom, esinyakazelayon, loba ngaphi lapho imifula efika khona, sizaphila. Futhi kuzakuba khona inhlanzi ezinengi kakhulu, ngoba amanzi la azafika lapho; ngoba zizakwelatshwa; ngoba kuzaphila konke lapho umfula ofika khona. 10 Kuzakuthi-ke, abagoli benhlanzi beme ngakuwo kusukela e-Engedio kuze kube se-Enegilayimip; kuzakuba lendawo yokuchaya amambuleq. Inhlanzi zabo zizakuba ngenhlobo zazo, njengenhlanzi zolwandle olukhulur, ezinengi kakhulu. 11 Kodwa izindawo zawo ezilodakas lamaxhaphozi awot kakuyikwelatshwa; kuzanikelwa ekubeni litshwayiu. 12 Futhi ngasemfuleni ekhunjini lwawo, ngapha langaphav, kuzakhula sonke isihlahla sokudlaw, ohlamvu lasox kaliyikubunay, lesithelo saso kasiyikuphela. Sizathelaz isithelo saso esitshaa njengokwenyanga zaso, ngoba amanzi aso aphuma endaweni engcwele. Isithelo saso sizakuba yikudla, lehlamvu laso libe ngelokwelaphab c.

13 Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Lo uzakuba ngumngcele, elizakudla ilifa lelizwe ngawo njengokwezizwe ezilitshumi lambili zakoIsrayelid. UJosefa uzakuba lezabelo ezimbilie. 14 Njalo lizakudla ilifa lalo, omunye njengomunye, engaphakamisa isandla sami ngalo ukulinika oyihlof. Njalo lelilizwe lizawela kini libe yilifag. 15 Njalo lokhu kuzakuba ngumngcele welizwe ngakuhlangothi lwenyakatho, kusukela olwandle olukhuluh, indlela yeHethilonii, ekungeneni eZedadij. 16 IHamathik l m, iBerothan, iSibirayimi ephakathi komngcele weDamasekoo p lomngcele weHamathiq, iHazeri-Hathikhoni esemngceleni weHawuranir. 17 Lomngcele osuka elwandle uzakuba yiHazari-Enonis t, umngcele weDamasekou v, lenyakatho ngasenyakatho, lomngcele weHamathiw x. Lalolu luhlangothi lwenyakatho. 18 Futhi uhlangothi lwempumalanga lizalulinganisa lusuka phakathi kweHawuraniy, lusuka phakathi kweDamasekoz, lusuka phakathi kweGileyadia, lusuka phakathi kwelizwe lakoIsrayeli ngaseJordani, kusuke emngceleni kuze kufike elwandle olungempumalangab. Lalolu luzakuba luhlangothi lwempumalanga. 19 Lohlangothi lweningizimu ngaseningizimuc, kusukelad eTamarie kuze kube semanzinif eMeribathi-Kadeshig, emfulenih kuze kube selwandle olukhului. Lalolu luzakuba luhlangothi lweningizimu ngaseningizimuj. 20 Lohlangothi lwentshonalanga luzakuba lulwandle olukhulu kusukela emngcelenik, kuze kube maqondana lokungena eHamathil. Lolu luhlangothi lwentshonalanga. 21 Ngokunjalo lizazehlukanisela lelilizwe njengokwezizwe zakoIsrayelim.

22 Kuzakuthi-ke, lilabe ngenkathon libe yilifa kini, lakwabezizwe abahlala phakathi kwenuo, abazazala abantwana phakathi kwenu. Njalo bazakuba kinip njengabazalelwe elizweni phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeliq. Bazakudla ilifa ngenkatho kanye lani phakathi kwezizwe zakoIsrayelir. 23 Kuzakuthi-ke, esizweni owezizwe ahlala njengowezizwe kiso, lapho lizamnika ilifa lakhe, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
