Ase amatuko aria ekero omorwoti atarenge ase Abaisraeli, nareengeo omonto gete Omolawi omenyete buna omomenyi rogoro kegima ase ense y’ebitunwa ya Efraimu. Ere agatwara omokungu o sere‐sere korwa Bethlehemu o Yuda. 
Omokungu oyio tarenge omwegenwa ase omosacha oye, erio akamotiga, akairana gochia o ise, aaria Bethlehemu, akamenya aroro ase engaki y’emetienyi ene. 
Omosacha oria akaimoka ore n’omosomba oyomo ne’chitigere ibere, akageenda kogaamba nere ase obwororo, agateema komoebereria airanerane nere. Omokungu oria akamosoyia nyomba mwa ise, na ise akamoroisia ase omogooko. 
Ise biara akamobooria abeere aroro; erio akaba amo nere amatuko atato, bakaria na konywa, bakarara aroro. 
Rituko ria kane bakaboka mambia chuni, na Omolawi oria akebeeka ang’e kogeenda, korende ise omosubati oria akamoteebia, “Kararia endagera onyore chinguru, erio mogende.” 
Abanto baria babere bagaikaransa aroro, bakaria na konywa amo. Erio ise omosubati oria agateebia omonto oria, “Koranche, oraare aiga naende ase obotuko bwa reero, oigwe buya.” 
Ekero omonto oria aimogete naende ng’a agende, ise omosubati oria akamosorora araare agwo naende. 
Rituko ria gatano, mambia chuni, akaimoka agachaaka kogeenda. Korende ise omosubati oria akamoteebia, “Karie endagera onyore chinguru. Ganya goika omobaso orakenda.” Ase ayio bakaragera amo bonsi babere. 
Ekero omonto oria amo n’omokuungu oye o sere‐sere, n’omosomba oye, baimogete kogeenda, ise omosubati oria akamoteebia, “Rora bono omobaso oerire, na bwaisire koira, nagosoroire, beera aiga ase obotuko bwa reero naende, oigwe buya. Ankio oimoke mambia chuni, ochake orogeendo, ogende seino.” 
Korende omonto oria tancha korara aroro ase obotuko boria. Ase igo akaimoka amo n’omokuungu oye o sere‐sere, bagachaaka orogeendo rwabo gochia Yebusi, (n’oro Yerusalemu), babwate chitigere chiabeekire ebiikaransero. 
Bagaika ensemo erochie Yebusi, na konya bwairire, omosomba agateebia omonene oye, “Inchuo, togobere gochia ase omochie oyo bw’Abayebusi, erio toraare aroro ase obotuko obo.” 
Omonene bw’omosomba oria akabora, “Titokogobera kogeenda korara ase omochie bw’ abanto batari Abaisraeli, korende tobaetanie togende Gibea.” 
Naende agateebia omosomba oye, “Eta togende, torore gose ’ntoike Gibea gose Rama, erio toraare aroro ase obotuko obo.” 
Bakagenderera orogeendo rwabo, na ekero baikire ang’e na Gibea, omochie bw’Ababenjamini, konya bwairiire kegima. 
Bakagobera gochia Gibea, baraare aroro ase obotuko boria. Kobasoire aroro, bagaikaransa eraaro isiko, ase omochie oria, korende onde tarenge bwanchete kobasoyia nyomba mwaye ase obotuko obwo. 
Ekero baikaranseteo, omogaka oyomo agacha, orenge korwa mogondo. Ere nigo arenge omonto bw’ense y’ebitunwa ya Efraimu, na bono nigo arenge omomenyi bw’omochie o Gibea. (Abanto b’aase aria nigo barenge Ababenjamini). 
Omogaka oria akarora omogendi oria ase eraaro eria, akamobooria, “Ng’ai okorwa? Naende ng’ai okogeenda?” 
Omogendi oria akamoiraneria, “Igo tokorwa Bethlehemu o Yuda, tokogeenda rogoro kegima ase ense y’ebitunwa ya Efraimu, nao seito. Igo nageenda Bethlehemu o Yuda, na bono nkogeenda inde ase enyomba ya Nyasae. Onde tari bwanchire gonsoyia nyomba mwaye. 
Obonyansi obwomo na endagera ende ye chitigere ’ntobwate. Naboigo ’ntobwate omogati na edivai bitoisaine inche na omokungu oyo, omosomba oo, na omosae oyo ore amo naintwe, abasomba bao. Titoremeiri gento kende gionsi.” 
Omogaka oria akamoteebia, “Kabe n’omorembe! Tiga inche ’noboseemia ase kende gionsi oremeire. Tokonyaara korara isiko aa ase eraaro botuko.” 
Erio akabasoyia nyomba mwaye, akaa chitigere endagera. Na ekero besibirie amagoro abo, bakaria na konywa. 
Ekero barenge kwegokia igo, abanto bande abanyaka b’omochie oria bagaacha mobosokano, bagaetanana enyomba na goaka egesieri, bagateebia omogaka oria, “Mosokie omonto oria ocha mwao, erinde toraare nere tomosarie.” 
Omonto oria, omonyene enyomba, agasoka, akabateebia, “Taibo, abaminto, timobaisa gokora obokayayu buna obwo. Omonto oyio n’omogeni one. Timobaisa komokorera obonyaka buna obwo. 
Rora, nimbwate omoiseke one omwekungi, na omonto oyo n’abwate omokungu oye o sere‐sere, tiga ’mbasokie ase more bono. Mobakorere obonyaka buna moganetie, korende timobaisa gokorera omonto oyo egento buna ekio gi’okogeechia.” 
Korende abanto baria tibamoigwera. Erio Omolawi oria akabwata omokungu oye o sere‐sere, akamoira isiko ase bare. Barabwo bagakora obonyaka nere bakamokorera bobe ase obotuko obogima goika mambia; na ekero bwachia gokiamoka bakamotiga agende. 
Ekero bwachia koba mambia, omokungu oria agacha, akagwa inse ase egesieri ki’enyomba y’omonto oria omosacha oye arenge, akarara aroro goika ense egakiamoka na koraba. 
Omosacha oye akaimoka mambia, akaigora ebisieri, na ekero are gosoka agenderere orogeendo rw’aye, akanyora omokungu oye o sere‐sere oraire obwatete omoriibo o inse bw’egesieri ki’enyomba. 
Omonto oria akamoteebia, “Imoka, tochake orogeendo!” Korende omokungu oria tamoiraneria. Erio akamoimokia, akamobeka ase etigere igoro, agachaaka orogeendo rw’aye gochia inka bwoye. 
Na ekero aigete inka bwoye, akaimokia omoyio, akabwata omokungu oye o sere‐sere, akamonachana ekiimo ase ekiimo goika ebing’ese ikomi na bibere. Erio agatoma abanto, nabarabwo bakabiira chinsemo chionsi ase ense y’Abaisraeli. 
Abanto bonsi abarooche amang’ana ayio nigo bakwanete, “Amang’ana anga buna ayio tana gokorekana, gose kororekana, korwa rituko riria Abaisraeli baruete ense ya Misiri goika reero! Rengereria amang’ana aya! Mogambe inki moranyaare gokora!”
