1. Kwathi emva kokufa kukaYoshuwa, babuza oonyana bakaSirayeli kuYehova, besithi, Ngubani na oya kusiqalela ukunyuka aye kumaKanan, alwe nawo?
2. Wathi uYehova, Konyuka uYuda: yabonani, ndilinikele ilizwe esandleni sakhe.
3. Wathi uYuda kuSimon umkhuluwa wakhe, Nyuka nam, siye eqashisweni lam silwe namaKanan; nam ndoya nawe eqashisweni lakho. USimon wahamba naye ke.
4. Wenyuka ke uYuda; uYehova wawanikela amaKanan namaPerizi esandleni sabo. Bawabulala eBhezeki amadoda angamawaka alishumi.
5. UAdoni waseBhezeki bamfumana eBhezeki, balwa naye, bawabulala amaKanan namaPerizi.
