Emiwuluko egibawaire ekika kya Manase
1 Ginu niigyo emiwuluko egibawaire ekika kya Manase, iye eyabbaire omwisuka omubere owa Yusufu. Abaizukulu ba Makiri omubere wa Manase era oiteeye wa Gireyaadi ibo babbaire basunire ekyalo kyʼe Gireyaadi nʼekyʼe Bbasani olwʼokubba ozeiza waabwe oMakiri yabbaire mulwani owʼamaani.+ 2 Kale omugabo gunu ogundi gwʼabaizukulu abandi abaisuka aba Manase ngʼemiryango gyabwe owegyabbaire. Emiryango egyo niigyo ginu: OgwʼAbbiyezeeri, nʼogwa Kereki, nʼogwʼAsuliyeeri, nʼogwa Sekemu, nʼogwa Keefa, nʼogwa Syemida.
3 Atyanu oZerofekadi oyo iye etiyabyaireku omwana omwisuka, wazira abaala bonkani, yabbaire mutaane wa Keefa, oKeefa omutaane wa Gireyaadi, oGireyaadi omutaane wa Makiri, oMakiri omutaane wa Manase. Amaliina gʼabaalabe abo niigo ganu: OMakula, nʼoNuwa, nʼoKogula, nʼoMirika, nʼoTiruza. 4 Abaala abo ni baaba eeri Eryezaali okabona nʼeeri oYoswa omutaane wa Nuuni nʼeeri abeekubbemberi, ni babakoba bati, “OMusengwa yalagiire oMusa okutuwa omuwuluko omu bʼekika kyaiswe.” Kale oYoswa nʼabawa omuwuluko omu bʼekika kyabwe ngʼoMusengwa oweyalagiire.+ 5 OManase nʼasuna ebitundu ebyʼeitakali ikumi okugaita oku Gireyaadi nʼoBbasani ebiri e buzwaisana owa Yoludaani, 6 olwʼokubba nʼabaana ba Manase abaala bona babawaire omuwuluko aamo na badi abaisuka. Eitakali eryʼe Gireyaadi babbaire baliwaire abʼeibyaire lya Manase abandi.
7 Omuwuluko gwa Manase gwazwereire Aseri okutuuka e Mikimesasi e buzwaisana owʼe Sekemu. Okuzweraawo ensalo nʼerungama e maserengeta, nʼetwaliryamu abantu bʼEni Tapuwa. 8 Ekyalo kyʼe Tapuwa kyabbaire kyʼaBamanase, neye ekibuga ekyʼe Tapuwa oku nsalo yʼaBamanase, ni kibba kyʼaBeefulaimu. 9 Awo ensalo ni yeeyongerayo e maserengeta paka ku Mwiga oKaana. Ebibuga ebyʼe maserengeta wa mwiga ogwo, byabbaire byʼaBeefulaimu, newankubbaire nga byabbaire mu kitundu kya Manase. Ensalo ya Manase nʼebita e mambuka owʼomwiga ogwo, nʼekoma oku nyanza oMeditereniani. 10 E maserengeta eitakali eryo lyabbaire lyʼEfulaimu, oManase nabba e mambuka. Omuwuluko gwa Manase ni gutuukira nakimo oku nyanza oMeditereniani era nga gusalagana nʼogwʼAseri e mambuka, kaisi ogwa Isakaali ni gubba e buzwaisana.
11 Omu muwuluko gwa Isakaali nʼogwʼAseri, oManase nʼasunayo ekibuga oBbesi Syani nʼoIbbuleyaamu, nʼoDoli, nʼEndoli, nʼoTaanaki, nʼoMegido nʼobubuga obubyeruguuliriirye.
12 Neye aBamanase nandi ni bayezya okutyama omu bibuga ebyo, olwʼokubba aBakanani babbaire bamaliriri okubba omu kitundu ekyo. 13 Waire ngʼaBaisirairi beeyongeire omu maani, tibabbingiremu aBakanani bonabona, wazira ni babakolesyanga bugalama.+

15 OYoswa nʼabairamu ati, “Owemubba nga muli bangi ino, ngʼekyalo kyʼEfulaimu ekyʼensozisozi tikibamala, mwabe musaawule ebibira byʼomu kyalo kyʼaBaperizi nʼaBaleefa.”
16 Abʼeibyaire lya Yusufu ni bairamu bati, “Ekyalo ekyo ekyʼensozisozi tikitumala, ate ngʼaBakanani bonabona abatyama omu kitantira nʼomu Bbesi Syani nʼobubuga obukyeruguuliriirye, nʼabo abali omu Kiinamo ekyʼeYezireeri, bali nʼebigaali ebyʼebyoma.”
17 Neye oYoswa nʼakoba abʼekika kya Yusufu, ibo ebʼomulyango gwʼEfulaimu nʼogwa Manase ati, “Ngʼowemuli abangi eino era abʼamaani, timwasune omugabo gumo gwonkani, 18 neye era mwasuna nʼekyalo ekyo akyʼamabira ekyʼensozisozi. Mwakisaawula, era nʼempembi waakyo ni wabba waanywe. Era mwezya okubbingamu aBakanani abo newankubbaire nga bali nʼebigaali byʼebyoma era nga bʼamaani.”
