1 Iri hakalenga isiku, mwami Nahaashi waꞌBahamooni anashaaja. Mugala wage Hanuuni anayima ahandu haage. 2 Kwokwo, Dahudi anatona: «Uyo Hanuuni mugala Nahaashi, ngamúgirira amiija, bwo naani yishe âli kizi gangirira.» Kwokwo, Dahudi anamúlungikira abandu boꞌkumúshiivya.

Yabo bashosi ba Dahudi, ikyanya bakahika mu kihugo kyaꞌBahamooni, 3 abatwali banabwira Hanuuni kwokuno: «Ewe! Uyo Dahudi, ikyanya atuma yaba bandu mbu bayiji kushiivya, ka utoniri kwo alooza ukusimbaha yisho? Aahabi! Haliko, íbitumiri abatuma, gira bayiji gahiriza ikihugo kiitu, na ha nyuma bakayiji kigwata.»

4 Kwokwo yabo bashosi ba Dahudi, ulya Hanuuni anabagwatiisa, anababegeesa inyanwa, anabalandamulira neꞌbyambalwa halinde ku nio, abuli baliika bagende.

5 Dahudi, indumwa yanamúhikira, kwo yabo bashosi bakateezibwa ishoni bweneene. Kyanatuma agabatumira abandu, bagendi basanganira, banababwire kwo batee beera ngana mu kaaya keꞌYeriko, halinde inyanwa zimere, bakabuli taaha.

6 Yabo Bahamooni banabona kwo Dahudi akoli rakiiri bweneene, kyanatuma Hanuuni na yabo baabo bagalungika abandu, batwale ibilo bihumbi makumi gashatu byeꞌharija imwaꞌBaharaamu beꞌMezopotamiya, neꞌMaaka, neꞌZoba, gira bagendi babulika, babaheereze amagaare giꞌzibo, kiri naꞌbasirikaani boꞌkugarongoora. 7 Banakoleesa amagaare giꞌzibo bihumbi makumi gashatu na bibiri, kuguma naꞌbasirikaani boꞌkugarongoora, banakoleesa na mwami weꞌMaka, kuguma naꞌbasirikaani baage. Banayiji shumbika hoofi neꞌMedeba. Abahamooni nabo, banalyoka mu twaya twabo twoshi, banakuumana hiꞌgulu liꞌzibo.

8 Iyo myazi yoshi, ikyanya Dahudi akagiyuvwa, analungika Yohabu, kuguma naꞌbasirikaani booshi gira bagendi bateera. 9 Yabo Bahamooni, banagendi yiguga kwiꞌrembo lyaꞌkaaya kaabo. Yabo bandi baami ábakayija, nabo bâli boonyene mu ndagiriro.

10 Uyo Yohabu, iri akabonaga kwaꞌbagoma bagweti bagamúyijira imbere neꞌnyuma, anatoola ibikalage byaꞌbasirikaani baage, anabatengeka ngiisi kwo bagaalwa naꞌBaharaamu. 11 Naꞌbasirikaani ábâli sigiiri, anabasikiiriza mwene wabo wa Habishaayi. Uyo Habishaayi naye, anabatengeka, gira balwise Abahamooni.

12 Yohabu anabwira Habishaayi kwokuno: «Yabo Baharaamu, iri bangambima imisi, unayiji ndabaala. Na naawe, iri Abahamooni bangakuhima imisi, naani ngayiji kutabaala. 13 Aaho! Tukizi ba bihagarusi. Tulwirage abandu biitu, kiri noꞌtwaya twa Rurema witu. Nahano atugirire nga ngiisi kwo asiimiri.»

14 Uyo Yohabu naꞌbasirikaani baage, mbu bayegeerage Abaharaamu, gira balwe, yabo Baharaamu ku magulu, ti puu! 15 Balya Bahamooni, iri bakabona kwaꞌBaharaamu bapuumuka, nabo banayami puumuka imbere lya Habishaayi. Banashubi galukira i kaaya. Yohabu naye anagalukira i Yerusaleemu.

16 Yabo Baharaamu, iri bakabona kwaꞌBahisiraheeri keera babahima, banatumira abaabo Baharaamu ábâli tuuziri ku ngombe yoꞌlwiji Hefuraati. Yabo bandi, bâli rongwirwi na Shofaaki, umukulu waꞌbasirikaani ba Hadadezeeri.

17 Iri Dahudi akayuvwa kwokwo, anakuumania Abahisiraheeri booshi, anabajabukana ulwiji Yorodaani, anagaba ibiso byage, anayegeera abagoma. Ikyanya akabateera, nabo banamúlwisa.

18 Kundu kwokwo, yabo Baharaamu banashubi tibita Abahisiraheeri. Dahudi anabayita mwaꞌbasirikaani bihumbi birinda ábâli mu rongoora amagaare giꞌzibo, naꞌbasirikaani bihumbi makumi gana boꞌkugenda naꞌmagulu. Kiri na Shofaaki, umukulu waꞌbasirikaani baabo, Dahudi anamúyita.

19 Abatwali booshi ábâli kizi kolera Hadadezeeri, iri bakabona kwaꞌBahisiraheeri babahima, banagendi yinginga Dahudi kwo banywane. Banakizi múkolera. Ukulyokera yaho, yabo Baharaamu batanaki yemeera kwo bashubi tabaala Abahamooni.
