Akabachika akabateebia, “Genda mwebise, moboere omochie korwa magega, timobeera aare, korende mwebeeke ang’e koyoumokera. 
Inche amo nabarwani bonsi tore komo natoumokere omochie. Ekero abanto ba Ai barasoke gotorwania, buna bakorete engaki eria ye ritang’ani, intwe ntotame. 
Erio batobwatie, naintwe tobang’use gochia aare korwa ase omochie. Barabwo barengererie iga: Bono batamire korwa ase tore, buna bakorete engaki eria ye ritang’ani. 
Bono ekero togotama, inwe morue ase moboete, moumokere omochie, ekiagera Omonene, Nyasae oino, oyobeekire ase amaboko aino. 
Ekero mwabwatire omochie goika moyosambe, buna Omonene achiikire, Morigererie mono, mokore buna nabachiikire.” 
Naboigo Yoshua akabatoma, na barabwo bakagenda, bakaboa egati ya Beteli na Ai, bosongo ya Ai. Korende Yoshua agatigara, akabeera amo nabaanto obotuko obwo. 
Yoshua akaimoka, mambia chuni, akaroberia abanto baye, ere amo nabagaaka b’Abaisraeli bagatang’ana abanto gochia Ai. 
Abarwani bonsi, abarenge amo nere, bagatiira, bagaika ang’e nomochie, bagatoora sugusu ya Ai; rikura ndiarenge egati yabo na Ai. 
Yoshua agachora abarwani chilifu isano, akababisa bosongo y’omochie, ase egati ya Beteli na Ai. 
Naboigo abarwani baroberetigwe: Omoganda omonene bw’abarwani okabeekwa sugusu y’omochie, na abarwani bande bakabeekwa koboa bosongo y’omochie. Yoshua akagenda, akabeera gati‐gati ye rikura obotuko boria. 
Ekero omorwoti o Ai aroche amang’ana buna are, akaayerera amo nabaanto baye baare omochie ime, bakebeeka ang’e. Bakayerera, bakaboka mambia chuni bagasoka korwania Abaisraeli agwo aase aragetwe, kororia Ekerubo Ekiomo. Korende omorwoti tamanyete ng’a abarwani mbaboete magega y’omochie. 
Yoshua amo n’Abaisraeli bonsi bagekora buna babuirwe, bagatama gochia erooro. 
Abanto bonsi b’omochie bakarangerigwa kobabwatia, na kobabwatirie Yoshua, bakang’uswa gochia aare korwa ase omochie. 
Kera omonto agatiga omochie ase okobwatia Abaisraeli. Onde tatigarete ime ya Ai, gose Beteli; omochie ogatigwa bosa otari na getango. 
Omonene agateebia Yoshua, “Raga ne ritimo riao rire koboko kwao gochia Ai, ekiagera ninkoe omochie oyo ase amaboko ao.” Yoshua akaraga omochie ne ritimo abwate koboko kwaye. 
Bwango ekero Yoshua aramborete okoboko kwaye, abarwani baria bakaimoka korwa ase baboete bakaminyoka gochia ase omochie, bakayobwata. Erio bwango bakayosamba nomorero. 
Abanto ba Ai bagachia korigereria magega, bakarora erioki korwa ase omochie rikoimoka igoro. Bagasinywa gotama gochia aaria na aaria, ekiagera Abaisraeli abwo konya batamire gochia erooro bakairana kobaumokera. 
Ekero Yoshua na Abaisraeli bonsi baroche ng’a abwo baboete babwatire omochie na koyosamba, bakairana, bagachaaka goita abanto ba Ai. 
Abaisraeli abarenge ase omochie ime bagatirimboka gochiao. Ase igo abanto ba Ai bagaetananwa kegima n’Abaisraeli, na bonsi bagaitwa. Onde tatigarete otooregete, 
otatiga omorwoti o Ai. Ere akabwatwa, akarentwa ore moyo ase Yoshua. 
Ekero Abaisraeli bakoorire goita abanto bonsi ba Ai abarenge agwo aase aarabu, na ase erooro, ase baabaseretie gochia, bakairana Ai, bagaita nemioro bonsi abarenge aroro. 
Bonsi abaitetwe ase rituko erio abasacha na bakungu nigo barenge abanto chilifu ikomi na ibere. Abwo nabwo barenge abanto bonsi ba Ai. 
Yoshua taringete okoboko kwaye, okwo kwabwatete ritimo goika ekero abanto bonsi ba Ai baitetwe. 
Abaisraeli bakaira chitugo na ebinto binde basakorete bikaba ebiabo, buna Omonene atebeetie Yoshua. 
Yoshua agasamba omochie o Ai, akayotiga ore ritombe, nabo ore goika reero iga. 
Agatonga omorwoti o Ai ase omote igoro, akamotigao goika mogoroba. Ekero erioba rikogwa Yoshua agachiika ng’a egetondo gesungorwe, getugutwe ase egeita ki’omochie; na abanto bagakora bo. Erio bakagetuba amagena, akaba etui eyereo goika reero iga. 
Yoshua akaagachera Omonene, Nyasae bw’Abaisraeli, egesasiimero ase egetunwa ki’Ebali. 
Agakeagacha buna Musa, omosomba bw’Omonene, achigete Abaisraeli, buna ariikire ase Egetabu ki’Amachiko a Musa: “Egesasiimero keagacheire amagena atabaachetwe negekorero gi’ekioma.” Agwo bakaruera Omonene ekeng’wanso ki’ogosambwa, na eki’omorembe. 
Abaisraeli kobarigereretie, Yoshua akarika ase amagena amachiiko aria aria Musa konya ariikire. 
Omoganda bwonsi bw’Abaisraeli amo nabagaaka babo, na abatang’ani, na abagaambi ebiina, amo nabamenyi bonsi, abamenyete ase egati yabo, bagatenena ase chinsemo ibere chi’Esanduki y’Okobwatana kw’Omonene, barigereretie abakuani Abalawi abayebogoretie. Ekeng’ese ki’abaanto bakarigereria egetunwa kia Gerisimu, na ekeng’ese kende egetunwa ki’Ebali. Musa omosomba bw’Omonene, konya ochikiire kare ng’a Abaisraeli banyore ogosesenigwa ritang’ani. 
Erio Yoshua akabasomera amang’ana onsi ay’amachiiko, ogosesenigwa na okoragererigwa, buna ariikire ase Egetabu ki’Amachiko. 
Yoshua agasomera omoganda bwonsi bw’Abaisraeli, amo nabakungu na abana, na abamenyi, abamenyete ase egati yabo, amang’ana onsi Musa achigete, tatigete nonya nerimo.
