1 Mu kihugo kyeꞌGirigaali, mwanayimuka ihiregerege higuma, iziina lyahyo Sheeba. Âli riiri mugala Bikiiri, mwene Binyamiini. Uyo Sheeba, anadihiriza ikibuga, anadeta kwokuno:
«Twe na Dahudi, ndaayo ngoome tuhiiti.
Ndaagwo gwitu mutuli gwo tuhiiti imwoꞌyu mugala Yese.
E Bahisiraheeri, ngiisi mundu agalukire mwiꞌheema lyage.»
2 Abahisiraheeri booshi, banasiga bajanda Dahudi, banakizi kulikira uyo Sheeba mugala Bikiiri. Haliko Abayuda boohe, banakizi kunga mwami wabo mu kukizi múyemeera, ukulyokera ha lwiji Yorodaani, halinde mu kaaya keꞌYerusaleemu.
3 Uyo Dahudi, ikyanya akagalukira mu kajumiro kaage i Yerusaleemu, anayabiira balya bagoli ikumi ábakasigala hiꞌgulu lyoꞌkulanga inyumba. Yabo bagoli, anababiika mu nyumba nguma, gira bakizi langirwa mwo, anakizi baheereza ibyokulya. Haliko, yenyene atanakizi gwejera mwo bali. Balya bagoli banazirirwa mwiꞌyo nyumba, banaba banakororo, halinde ukuhisa ku lusiku bakafwa.
4 Mwami Dahudi anabwira Hamaasa: «Mu siku zishatu, ungumanize Abayuda booshi. Na naawe ube ho.» 5 Haliko uyo Hamaasa, ikyanya akagendi kuumania Abayuda, anakeereza, atanagaluka mu yizo siku zo mwami amúbwira.
6 Kwokwo, Dahudi anabwira Habishaayi: «Buno, Sheeba mugala Bikiiri, agatuleetera amakuba, ukuhima geꞌmwa Habusalumu. Ku yukwo, uyabiirage abasirikaani baani, unayami gendi looza Sheeba, átazi gendi bishama mu twaya útuli neꞌnzitiro ngomu.»
7 Kwokwo, Yohabu na Habishaayi, kuguma naꞌbalaliizi, banayimuka yaho i Yerusaleemu, bali kuguma neꞌndwani zaage. Yabo booshi, Habishaayi ye kabarongoora, banagenda bagalooza Sheeba.
8 Yabo booshi, iri bakahika ku lwala lweꞌGibyoni, Hamaasa anayiji basanganira. Yohabu âli yambiiti ibyambalwa byeꞌkisirikaani. Anâli hagasiri ingooti íyâli riiri mu kyubati. Yohabu, iri akamúyegeera, ingooti yage yanayomoka, yanatibukira haashi.
9 Yohabu anabuuza uyo Hamaasa: «E mwene witu wa Hamaasa, myazi miki?» Haaho, Yohabu anayami gwatira Hamaasa ku lwanwa noꞌkuboko kweꞌlulyo, nga agamúnyunyuguta. 10 Hamaasa atanabona kwo Yohabu afumbiiti iyo ngooti mu kuboko kweꞌlumosho. Lyeryo, ulya Yohabu anayami yomeka Hamaasa ingooti mu nda. Ibya mu nda byanafudukira imbuga, anafwa. Irya ngooti, Yohabu atakamúyomeka yo kabiri. Haaho, Yohabu na mwene wabo wa Habishaayi, banabuli genderera ukulooza Sheeba.
11 Mu yabo bandu ba Yohabu, muguma anayimanga ha butambi lyeꞌkirunda kya Hamaasa, anadeta: «Ngiisi úkuuziri Yohabu, bo na Dahudi, akulikirage Yohabu.»
12 Kirya kirunda kya Hamaasa, kyâli gweti kigasambagana mu muko gwage yaho mu njira. Ngiisi mundu úwâli kizi lenga, anakizi yimanga ha butambi lyakyo. Kwokwo, ulya mundu, iri akabona kwaꞌbandu bagweti bagayimanga-yimanga yaho, anayabiira kirya kirunda, anakibungira mu mulondo, anagendi kibisha mu ndalo. 13 Neꞌkyanya bakaba keera balyosa ikirunda mu njira, abandu booshi banakulikira Yohabu, gira bagendi looza Sheeba.
14 Ulya Sheeba analenga mu milala yoshi yaꞌBahisiraheeri, halinde anahika mu kaaya keꞌHabeeri-Beti-Maka. Imbaga yoshi ya Bikiiri yanakuumana, yanamúkulikira. 15 Na bwoꞌlya Sheeba âli yibishiri mu yako kaaya, kyanatuma beene Yohabu bagakasokanana. Beene Yohabu, banakazungulusa indundo yoꞌluvu, banatondeera ukuhongola uluzitiro lwaꞌkaaya.
16 Haaho, umukazi mwitegeereza wa mu kaaya, anadetaga kwokuno: «Muyuvwirize, muyuvwirize! Mumbwirire Yohabu ayije, gira tuyiji ganuula.»
17 Iri Yohabu akayija ha butambi lyage, anamúbuuza: «Ka we Yohabu?» Yohabu, ti: «Nie yehe.»
Uyo mukazi, ti: «Ndi mukozi wawe. Undegage amatwiri.» Yohabu anamúbwira: «Nguteziri go.»
18 Ulya mukazi anashubi deta: «Mu siku ízikalenga, ikyanya abandu bâli kizi hambuulana, banakizi deta mbu: “Mugendi huuna ubuhanuuzi mu kaaya keꞌHabeeri.” Kunali kwo bâli kizi gira. 19 Mu Bahisiraheeri, twe tuli mu looza umutuula. Haliko kano kaaya, wehe, ukoli loziizi ukukashereeza, kanali nga nyina waꞌBahisiraheeri. Si yaka kaaya, biri bindu bya Nahano! Aahago! Kituma kiki ukoli loziizi ukukashereeza?»
20 Yohabu naye, ti: «E mugoli, nanga! Ndaloziizi ukushereeza kano kaaya. 21 Yukwo wadeta, kutali mu shungi ziitu. Si mundu muguma, iziina lyage Sheeba, akahuna imbere lya mwami Dahudi. Ali mugala Bikiiri, wa mu migazi yeꞌHifurahimu. Mumúndeetere hano, lyo ndyoka mu kano kaaya.» Uyo mukazi anashuvya kwokuno: «Itwe lyage, tugakukabula lyo, inyuma lyoꞌluzitiro.»
22 Ha nyuma, ulya mukazi anagalukira mu bandu booshi ba mu kaaya, anabahanuula kwo bagwate Sheeba, banamúsingule itwe. Kwokwo, banagendi múgwata, banamúsingula lyo, banalikabulira imbuga, imunda Yohabu. Iri bakagira kwokwo, Yohabu anayami dihiriza ikibuga. Yabo basirikaani banalyoka mu kaaya keꞌHabeeri. Ngiisi muguma wabo, anataahira imwage. Yohabu anagalukira i Yerusaleemu, imunda mwami Dahudi.
Amaziina gaꞌbakozi ba Dahudi
23 Ku yikyo kyanya, Yohabu ye wâli yimangiiri abasirikaani booshi baꞌBahisiraheeri. Benaya mugala Yehoyada, ye wâli kirongoozi kyaꞌbalaliizi ba mwami. 24 Na Hadoraamu ye wâli mwimangizi mukulu weꞌmikolwa yaꞌkahaati. Na Yoshafaati mugala Ahiludi, ye wâli kizi langa amandiko goꞌbwami. 25 Na Shahusha, ye wâli mwandisi. Saadoki na Habyataari, bo bâli riiri bagingi. 26 Na Hira, wa mu kaaya keꞌYahiiri, naye kwakundi âli riiri mugingi wa Dahudi.
