18. wayisondeza indlu yakhe ngokwamadoda ayo, kwacishwa uAkan, unyana kaKarmi, unyana kaZabhedi, unyana kaZera, wesizwe sakwaYuda.
19. Wathi uYoshuwa kuAkan, Nyana wam, mzukise uYehova uThixo kaSirayeli, umdumise; khawundixelele into oyenzileyo; musa ukukhanyela kum.
20. UAkan wamphendula uYoshuwa, wathi, Okunene ndonile kuYehova uThixo kaSirayeli, ndenjenje, ndenjenje:
21. ndabona emaxhobeni ingubo enkulu entle yaseShinare yanye, neeshekele* zesilivere zaba makhulu mabini, nesinqumka segolide sasinye esiziishekele ezimashumi mahlanu ubunzima baso; ndazinqwenela, ndazithabatha; nanzo zimbelwe emhlabeni phakathi kwentente yam, isilivere ingaphantsi.
22. Wathuma uYoshuwa abathunywa; bagidima baya ententeni; nanzo zimbelwe ententeni yakhe, isilivere ingaphantsi.
23. Bazithabatha phantsi kwentente, bazisa kuYoshuwa, nakoonyana bakaSirayeli bonke; bazikhuphela phambi koYehova.
