Osigale aanu nʼabaala abaweererya bange. 9 Weetegereze abasaiza e gibakesa era obasengererye ngʼozwaku abaala abaweererya bange e nyuma. Ntumwire nʼabasaiza okutakuloberya.

Awo nʼakona obbaale oguyabbaire akumbaanirye, nʼasunamu ekiro egibita omwikumi na isatu. 18 Ni yeetiika nʼagitwala omu kibuga, era odaaniwe nʼabona obungi obwakumbaanirye. Era oLuusi nʼatoolayo nʼebiyabbaire aliireku nʼalekaku ngʼamalire okwikuta nʼabimuwa.
19 Odaaniwe nʼamubuulya ati, “Olondeekereirye yaina olwatyanu? Okolere yaina? Omusaiza oyo akutakire atyo oMusengwa amuwe enkabi.”
Awo oLuusi nʼakobera odaaniwe ebikwata kwoyo e gyabbaire ngʼakola. Era nʼamukoba ati, “Eriina lyʼomusaiza e gimbaire nga nkola olwatyanu niiye oBbowaazi.”
20 ONawume nʼakoba omulyawe ati, “OMusengwa oyo atalekeire awo okukwatira aboomi nʼabafu ekisa, amuwe enkabi.” Era nʼayongeraku ati, “Omusaiza oyo atuliku oluganda olwʼokumpi; moiza oku bali nʼobuvunaanyizibwa okwira omu kigere kya ibaawo.”+
21 Awo oLuusi omukali oMumowaabbu nʼakoba ati, “Era ankobere nʼokunkoba ati, ‘Osigale ngʼobba nʼabakoli bange paka owebamala okukesa obbaale wange yenayena.’ ”
