4.
Taifa rosi ririphokala rikavuka muho Joridani, Mwenyezi Mlungu wamuamba Joshuwa: 
“Tsambula alume kumi na airi kula nyo atu, chila mbari mutu mmwenga, 
nao alagize uambe, ‘Halani mawe kumi na mairi kula pho kahi-kahi ya nyo muho Joridani haswa pharatu phaimirepho alavyadzi-sadaka, gatsukuleni mkagaike phatu ambapho rero mundalala.’” 
Hipho Joshuwa waiha hara Aiziraeli kumi na airi, ambao kala akaatsambula, mmwenga kula chila mbari. 
Joshuwa achiambira, “Phiyani pho kahi-kahi ya nyo muho Joridani mbere za ro sanduku ra chilagane ra Mwenyezi Mlungu, Mlungu wenu chila mmwenga akatsole dziwe aritsukule fuzini, chila dziwe kpwa mbari mwenga ya Aiziraeli, 
ili ikale ishara kahi-kahi yenu. Ana enu ndiphokuuzani siku zedzazo, ‘Gano mawe manage nini?’ 
Phahi mundaambira kukala madzi ga muho Joridani gaimiswa kujera phokala Sanduku ra chilagane ra Mwenyezi Mlungu rinavuswa muho Joridani. Kpwa hivyo mawe gago gandakala ushaidi kpwa Aiziraeli kare na kare.” 
Hara Aiziraeli ahenda kama vyolagizwa ni Joshuwa. Ahala gara mawe kumi na mairi kula kahi-kahi ya muho Joridani, kulengana na isabu ya mbari za Iziraeli, dza viratu Mwenyezi Mlungu arivyomuambira Joshuwa, achigatsukula hadi phara pholala, nao achigapanga hipho. 
Joshuwa waimisa mawe ganjina kumi na mairi kahi-kahi ya muho Joridani, haswa pharatu ambapho alavyadzi-sadaka ariotsukula sanduku ra chilagane kala aimire, nago gachere phapho hadi rero. 
Hara alavyadzi-sadaka ariotsukula sanduku ra chilagane asala kuima kahi-kahi ya muho Joridani hadi atu ariphomala kuhenda chila chitu ambacho Mwenyezi Mlungu wamlagiza Joshuwa aambire atu, kulengana na vira arivyolagizwa ni Musa. Nao atu achihenda wangbwi wa kuvuka nyo muho. 
Bada ya atu osi kusira kuvuka, hara alavyadzi-sadaka na sanduku ra chilagane ra Mwenyezi Mlungu avuka kuno atu anaalola. 
Ana alume a mbari za Rubini, Gadi na nusu ya mbari ya Manase ambao kala akadzitayarisha chiviha, avuka mbere ya Aiziraeli kama Musa arivyoalagiza. 
Anajeshi aho apatao elufu mirongo mine okala na silaha tayari kpwa viha aphiya kuelekeya tsi ya kugbwa za mudzi wa Jeriko tayari kpwa viha naye Mwenyezi Mlungu kala a phamwenga nao. 
Siku iyo Mwenyezi Mlungu wamtukuza Joshuwa mbere za Aiziraeli osi; nao achimuishimu Joshuwa maishage gosi kama arivyomuishimu Musa. 
Naye Mwenyezi Mlungu kala akamuamba Joshuwa, 
“Lagiza alavyadzi-sadaka atsukulao sanduku ra chilagane, atuluke kula muho Joridani.” 
Kpwa hivyo Joshuwa waamurisha hara alavyadzi-sadaka achiambira, “Tulukani himo muho Joridani.” 
Wakati hara alavyadzi-sadaka a Mwenyezi Mlungu ariphotuluka kula kahi-kahi ya muho Joridani, na ariphovyoga tsi kavu, madzi ga muho Joridani gauya kujera gachiodzala pande zosi kama garivyokala mwandzo. 
Hara atu ariphovuka muho Joridani kala ni siku ya kumi ya mwezi wa mwandzo, nao achichita kambi hiko mudzi wa Giligali urio mphaka wa uphande wa mlairo wa dzuwa wa mudzi wa Jeriko. 
Gara mawe kumi na mairi, ambago agahala kula muho Joridani gasimikpwa ni Joshuwa hipho mudzi wa Giligali. 
Achiambira hara Aiziraeli, “Ana enu ndiphokuuzani siku zedzazo, ‘Gano mawe gana mana yani?’ 
Hipho mundaamanyisa kukala, Aiziraeli avuka muho Joridani tsi kavu.” 
Mana Mwenyezi Mlungu, Mlungu wehu waumisa madzi ga muho Joridani kuno hunalola hata huchivuka kama Mwenyezi Mlungu wehu arivyohenda hiko Bahari ya Shamu, ambayo waiumisa madzi hadi akare ehu achisira kuvuka. 
Higa gahendeka ili atu osi duniani amanye kukala uwezo wa Mwenyezi Mlungu una nguvu, ili namwi mumuogophe Mwenyezi Mlungu, Mlungu wehu hata kare na kare.
