2. “Thuma wena abantu ukuba bahlole izwe laseKhanani engibanika lona abantwana bakwa-Israyeli; uthume umuntu waleso naleso sizwe sawoyise, kube yilowo nalowo abe yinduna phakathi kwabo.”
3. UMose wabathuma-ke besuka ehlane lasePharanu ngesiyalezo sikaJehova; bonke babo babe ngabantu abayizinhloko zabantwana bakwa-Israyeli.
4. Lawa angamagama abo:Owesizwe sakwaRubeni: uShamuwa indodana kaZakuri.
5. Owesizwe sakwaSimeyoni: uShafati indodana kaHori.
