AbaseShekemi bambekela abaqamekeli eziqongweni zezintaba, baphanga bonke ababedlula kubo ngaleyo ndlela; kwabikwa ku-Abimeleki.

Lapho uGali ebona abantu , wathi kuZebule : Bheka, kwehla abantu eziqongweni zezintaba . UZebule wathi kuye : Uyabona amathunzi ezintaba kungathi ngabantu.

Umhlaba wawusuzamazama, wadikizela; izisekelo zezintaba zathuthumela, zagubhuzela ngokuba ethukuthele.

Esandleni sakhe kukhona ukujula komhlaba ; iziqongo zezintaba ngezakhe nazo.

Ngalolo suku imizi yabo enamandla iyakuba njengezindawo ezishiyiweyo zasehlathini nezaseziqongweni zezintaba abazishiya pha mbi kwabantwana bakwa-Israyeli zibe yincithakalo.

Ihlane nemizi y alo makujabul e nemizana abakhileyo kuyo abakwaKedari , bahube abakhile emadwaleni, benanele beseziqongweni zezintaba.

Ngokuba umlilo uphenjiwe entukuthelweni yami ; uyasha kuze kube sendaweni yabafileyo engaphansi , uqede umhlaba nezithelo zawo , wokhele izisekelo zezintaba.

nangezinto ezinqabileyo zezintaba zamandulo , nangamagugu amagquma angunaphakade,

Amanzi ancipha njalonjalo, kwaze kwaba senyangeni yeshumi . Ngeyeshumi ngolokuqala lwenyanga iziqongo zezintaba zabonakala.

Niyakwazi ukuthi nginguJehova , lapho ababuleweyo babo beyakuba phakathi kwezithombe zabo nxa zonke zama-altare abo kuwo onke amagquma aphakemeyo, nakuzo zonke iziqongo zezintaba , naphansi kwayo yonke imithi eluhlaza, naphansi kwawo onke ama -oki adumbileyo, izindawo lapho bebenikela khona ngephunga elimnandi kuzo zonke izithombe zabo.

Bayahlabela eziqongweni zezintaba, bashisa impepho emagqumeni, phansi kwama-oki nemipopula nemitherebinte , ngokuba umthunzi wakho muhle ; kungalokho amadodakazi enu ayafeba, nawomakoti benu bayaphinga.

Bangqabashiya ngomsindo wezinqola eziqongweni zezintaba , njengokuchochoza kwelangabi lomlilo elidla amabib i nanjengabantu abanamandla, abahlelelwe ukulwa.
