Amawanga agebalekerewo omu Kanani
1 Atyanu ganu niigo amawanga oMusengwa ageyalekerewo omu Kanani okugezesya aBaisirairi, ababbaire tibamanyanga oku byʼentalo omu kyalo ekyo. 2 Ekyo yakikolere, okumanyikisya abaizukulu ba Isirairi ebyʼentalo, abo ababbaire tibamanyangaku entalo. 3 Ganu niigo amawanga nago: ABafirisuuti abo ababbaire ansi wa bafugi abataanu, nʼaBakanani bonabona, nʼaBasidoni nʼaBakiivi abatyami bʼomu nsozi gyʼomu Lebbanooni okuzwera oku Lusozi oBbaali Kerumoni, okutuuka e Lebbo Kamasi. 4 Yagalekerewo kugezesya Baisirairi, okubona ooba nga bagonderanga ebiragiro bya Musengwa ebiyabbaire awaire abazeiza baabwe ngʼabitira omu Musa.
5 ABaisirairi ni batyama omu Bakanani, nʼomu Bakiiti, nʼomu Bamooli, nʼomu Baperizi, nʼomu Bakiivi, nʼomu Bayebbusi. 6 Ni bafumbirwanga abaala bʼamawanga ago, era ni bawanga abaala baabwe abaisuka bʼamawanga ago okubafumbirwa, era ni baweereryanga abakibbumba bʼamawanga ago.
Omulamuzi Osiniyeeri
7 ABaisirairi ni bakola ekibbikibbi omumaiso ga Musengwa; ni beerabira oMusengwa iye oKibbumba waabwe, ni baweereryanga ebifaananyi byʼokusinza ebya Bbaali nʼebyʼAsera onkuni omukali. 8 Olwʼekyo oMusengwa nʼasunguwalira ino aBaisirairi, nʼabalekera oKusaani Lisasaimu, okabaka wʼe Mesopotamiya okubawangula. Era nʼabafuga emyanka munaana. 9 Neye aBaisirairi owebeekungiriire oMusengwa, nʼabateekerawo omununuli, Osiniyeeri omutaane wa Kenazi omuganda wa Kalebbu. OKenazi yabbaire mutomuto oku Kalebbu. 10 OMwoyo wa Musengwa nʼaika okwOsiniyeeri, nʼasuuka mulamuzi* wa Isirairi era nʼayaba okulwana olutalo. OMusengwa nʼawaayo oKusaani Lisyasaimu, okabaka wʼe Mesopotamiya omu bwezye bwʼOsiniyeeri nʼamuwangula. 11 Kale ekyalo ekyo ni kibba nʼemirembe okumala emyanka 40 paka Osiniyeeri omutaane wa Kenazi oweyafiire.
Omulamuzi Ekudi
12 ABaisirairi tete ni bakola ekibbikibbi omumaiso ga Musengwa, era olwʼokubba bakolere ekibbikibbi, oMusengwa nʼawa Egulooni okabaka wa Mowaabbu amaani okuwangula oIsirairi. 13 Egulooni ni yeeyimbya nʼaBaamoni nʼaBamaleki, ni balumba oIsirairi, ni bawamba ekibuga ekyʼeNsansa.† 14 Okabaka Egulooni nʼafuga aBaisirairi okumala emyanka ikumi na munaana.
15 Era tete aBaisirairi ni beekungirira oMusengwa, nʼabateekerawo omununuli, Ekudi owʼengalo engooda, omutaane wa Gera, oMubbenyamini. ABaisirairi ni batuma Ekudi nʼomusolo agutwalire Egulooni okabaka wa Mowaabbu. 16 Atyanu Ekudi yabbaire ayeesere empiima eyʼobwogi obubiri, nga eyerya esentimita ooti 50 omu buwanvu. Nʼagyesiba oku kisambikye ekyʼoku ndiiro, omu bizwalobye. 17 Nʼatwalira Egulooni okabaka wa Mowaabbu omusolo. Era Egulooni yabbaire musaiza munene ino. 18 Ekudi oweyamalire okuwaayo omusolo, nʼaseebula abantu abamubbeereireku okuguleeta. 19 Neye iye onanyere nʼakoma ku bifaananyi ebibayeesere omu mabbaale okumpi nʼe Girugaali, nʼakanga eeri Egulooni, nʼamukoba ati, “Oo kabaka, ndi nʼobukwendabwo obwʼekyama.”
Awo okabaka nʼakoba ati, “Osirike kaisi!” Era nʼakoba abaweereryabe bonabona bazwewo.
20 Awo Ekudi nʼaigerera okabaka aweyabbaire atyaime yenkani omu kisengekye ekyʼangulu ekiwolu, nʼamukoba ati, “Ndi nʼobukwendabwo obuzwa eeri oKibbumba.” Awo okabaka oweyabbaire asetuka oku ntebeye, 21 Ekudi nʼasowolayo empiima oku kisambikye ekyʼoku ndiiro ngʼakolesya engalo engooda, nʼagisumuta okabaka omu kida. 22 Empiima yonayona nʼekikwatiro kyaku nʼemuweeramu, nʼewulukira omu mugongo. Ekudi tiyagikuusiremu era amasavu ni gagibbuunaku. 23 Awo Ekudi nʼawuluka nʼaigalawo, enjigi egyʼekisenge ekyo nʼagifungaku nʼayaba. 24 Ekudi oweyamalire okwaba, abaweererya bʼEgulooni owebaizire ni babona ngʼenjigi gyʼekisenge ekyo okabaka omuyabbaire nga nfungeku, ni baseega bati, “Okabaka ateekwa okubba ayabireku kweyamba.” 25 Bakuumire eibbanga eribaboine nga limala nga taigulawo enjigi egyʼekisenge ekyo, ni bakwata ekifunguwo, ni baigulawo. Awo ni bayajirya omusengwa waabwe ngʼagwire ansi era nga mufu.
26 Omu kaseera abaweererya abo akebabbaire nga bakaali bakuumiriire okabaka okwigulawo, niiko Ekudi akeyasodokeiremu. Oweyasodokere yabitire mu kifo omwabbaire ebifaananyi byʼokusinza ebibayeesere omu mabbaale nʼayaba e Seira. 27 Oweyatuukire eeyo omu kyalo kyʼEfulaimu ekyʼensozisozi, nʼafuwa ekondeere okweta aBaisirairi. Owebatuukire e giyabbaire nʼabeekubbembera, ni baserengeta aamo na iye okuzwa omu kyalo ekyo ekyʼensozisozi. 28 Nʼabakoba ati, “Munsengererye olwʼokubba oMusengwa abawaire inywe okuwangula abalabe baanywe aBamowaabbu.” Kale awo ni basengererya Ekudi, ni baserengeta, ni baaba bawamba ebyambu ebyʼomwiga oYoludaani, aBamowaabbu ebibabbaire bambukiraku, nandi ni baikirirya omuntu yenayena okwambuka. 29 Oku mulundi ogwo ni baita abasaiza ooti 10,000 abʼamaani era abazira oku Bamowaabbu, nandi ni wabbaawo alamaku. 30 Oku lunaku olwo aBaisirairi ni bawamba oMowaabbu. Ekyalo ni kibba nʼemirembe okumala emyanka 80.
