Iri hakalenga isiku, mu kihugo mwanashubi teera umwena. (Gutali gulya úgukateera abandu ku kyanya kya Hiburahimu.) Yugwo mwena, gwanatuma Hisake agabungira i Geraari, mu kihugo kya Habimereki, mwami waꞌBafirisiti.

Mukuba, Hiburahimu akasimbaha imaaja zaani, nga ngiisi kwo nꞌgakyula.» Iri Hisake akayuvwa kwokwo, anatee beera haaho i Geraari.
Abandu ba mu kihugo kyeꞌGeraari, iri bakabuuza Hisake hiꞌgulu lya mukaage, anabashuvya: «Uyu, ali mwali wani.» Akayoboha ukudeta kwo ali mukaage, bwo Rebeka âli nonosiri bweneene. Âli yobohiri kwaꞌbatuulaga beꞌyo munda bagakengeera bamúyita.
Ulya Habimereki, mwami waꞌBafirisiti, ikyanya âli mali tuula yaho siku nyingi, analingulira mu kaazo, anabona Hisake na Rebeka bagweti bagahoberana. Kyanatuma agatumira Hisake, anamúbuuza: «Si ukambwira kwo Rebeka ali mwali wawe? Kiziga ali mukaawe!»

10 Uyo Habimereki, anamúbwira: «Maki gano watugirira? Si mu bano bandu baani, hali úwangashulehiri mukaawe buzira kuyoboha, unakengeere watuyingiza mu buhube bweneene.»
11 Uyo Habimereki anayerekeza abandu baage, ti: «Ngiisi úgaahuma ku Hisake, kandi iri ku mukaage, agayami yitwa.»

Yugwo mwaka, iri akabyala imbuto zaage mu kihugo, anabeerwa, anayimbula ubugira kali igana. 13 Ibindu byage byanayushuuka ingingwe, anaba mugale bweneene. 14 Âli riiri mutuuzi weꞌngaavu, na weꞌbibuzi bingi. Âli hiiti naꞌbaja bingi, halinde Abafirisiti banakizi múyuvwirwa uluugi.
15 Ku kyanya Hiburahimu âli ki riiri ho, abakozi baage bakahumba ibirigo. Haliko, ku kyanya kya Hisake, yabo Bafirisiti banakizi yiji bifulira. 16 Kwokwo, Habimereki anabwira Hisake: «Lola ngiisi kwo ukola neꞌmisi ukutuhima. Aaho! Utulyokerage mu kino kihugo kiitu.»
17 Kwokwo, Hisake analyoka yaho, anagendi shumbika mu ndekeera yeꞌGeraari. 18 Birya birigo byaꞌbakozi ba Hiburahimu bakahumba ku kyanya âli ki riiri ho, ikyanya Abafirisiti bakabifulira, Hisake anakizi shubi bitoboolola. Ngiisi kwo yishe akabiyinika amaziina, anakizi bibuuza gaago-gaago.
19 Lusiku luguma, mwiꞌyo ndekeera yeꞌGeraari, abakozi ba Hisake banahumba mweꞌkirigo, banabona kwo kyazununuka mwaꞌmiiji. 20 Haliko, abangere ba mwiꞌyo ndekeera, naꞌbeꞌmwa Hisake, banakizi kihambanwa, ti: «Si miiji giitu, yaga!» Yikyo kirigo, Hisake anakiyinika iziina Heseki, (kuli kudeta: milongwe). Mukuba, abangere beꞌGeraari naꞌbeꞌmwage bakakihambanwa.
21 Ha nyuma, yabo bakozi ba Hisake banagendi humba ikindi kirigo. Nakyo kwakundi, banashubi kihambirira. Hisake anakiyinika iziina Sitina, (kuli kudeta: bushombani).
22 Hisake anashubi lyoka yaho, anagendi humba ikindi kirigo. Si kyohe, batanaki kihambirira. Yikyo kirigo, anakiyinika iziina Rehobooti, (kuli kudeta: ndaraara). Anadeta: «Nahano leero atuheereza ino ndaraara, hanali ho twamu gangaaza.»
23 Ha nyuma, Hisake analyoka yaho, anagenda i Beeri-Sheba. 24 Mu bwobwo bushigi, Nahano anamúhulukira kwo, anamúbwira: «Niehe, nie Rurema wa yisho Hiburahimu. Kwokwo, tuyamiinwi, utayobohe. Bwo Hiburahimu âli riiri mukozi wani, kyo kitumiri naawe ngakizi kugashaanira. Na ngizi luza abandu ba mwiꞌkondo lyawe.»
25 Iyo munda i Beeri-Sheba, Hisake anayubaka yaꞌkatanda koꞌkusiriigiza kwaꞌmatuulo, anayikumba Nahano, anahashinga amaheema gaage. Abakozi baage, banahumba heꞌkindi kirigo.
26 Habimereki analyoka i Geraari, ali kuguma noꞌmuhanuuzi wage Ahuzaati, na Fikooli, umukulu waꞌbasirikaani. Banayijira Hisake. 27 Hisake anababuuza: «E bagoma baani, bikagi mwayiji gira leero? Si keera mukanyimula imwinyu!»
28 Nabo, ti: «Keera tukabona ku bweranyange kwo Nahano muyamiinwi. Tukoli bwini kwo buli bwija tubeeranwe mu kati koꞌmutuula. Aahago! Tubikirane indahiro, tunanywane ikihango. 29 Ubiikage indahiro kwo utâye tugirire buligo, bwo nyiitu, ndaabwo twakugirira. Tukakukolera amiija, mu kukuleka ugendage noꞌmutuula. Na buno, Nahano akugashaniiri.»
