1 ABaisirairi tete era ni bakola ekibbikibbi omumaiso ga Musengwa, era oMusengwa nʼabawaayo eeri aBamidiyaani, ni babafuga okumala emyanka musanvu. 2 ABamidiyaani ni babitya kubbikubbi ino aBaisirairi, kale aBaisirairi ni beekolera ebyebiso omu nsozi, era nʼomu mpuku nʼomu bifo ebindi omu nsozi. 3 Nabuli aBaisirairi owebasiganga ebirime byabwe, aBamidiyaani nʼaBamereki nʼabatyami abʼe Buzwaisana babalumbanga. 4 Bakolanga enkambi oku kyalo ekyo ni bajigirica ebirime byʼaBaisirairi okwabira nakimo paka Gaza, anambula kulekeraku Isirairi kintu kyonakyona ekyomi, kadi ntaama ooba nte ooba mpunda. 5 Baizanga nʼebyayo byabwe nʼeweema gyabwe, nga bangi ooti biziima byʼenzige. Kyabbanga tikyezyeka okubala abantu nʼengamira gyabwe; era ni baingira omu kyalo ekyo, ni bakijigirica. 6 ABamidiyaani ni badoobya ino aBaisirairi, era aBaisirairi ni beekungirira oMusengwa okubabbeera.
7 Awo aBaisirairi owebeekungiriire oMusengwa olwʼaBamidiyaani, 8 oMusengwa nʼabatumira onaabbi okubakoba ati, “OMusengwa iye oKibbumba wa Isirairi akoba ati, ‘Nabatoire omu Misiri omu kyalo e gimwabbaire omu bugalama. 9 Era nabanunwire omu bwezye bwʼaBamisiri. Era ni mbanunula nʼomu bwezye bwʼabo bonabona ababbaire babamigirirya ni mbabbinga nga wemubataabaala era ni mbawa inywe, ekyalo kyabwe. 10 Era inywe ni mbakoba nti, Ninze oMusengwa iye oKibbumba waanywe. Timwasinzanga abakibbumba bʼaBamooli abananyere ekyalo ekimutyamamu. Neye timwampulisisirye.’ ”
OKibbumba alonda oGidyoni okununula oIsirairi
11 Atyanu oMalaika wa Musengwa nʼaiza omwOfula nʼatyama omu muvule gwa Yowaasi owʼekika kyʼAbbiyezeeri. OGidyoni omutaane wa Yowaasi nago yabbaire ngʼali kwiga ngaano omu kikunyiro kyʼemizabbibbu, mu mbiso nga tataka aBamidiyaani bamanye. 12 Awo oMalaika wa Musengwa nʼabonekera oGidyoni nʼamukoba ati, “OMusengwa ali na iwe, iwe omusaiza omulwani owʼamaani.”
13 OGidyoni nʼamukoba ati, “Neye sengwa, oMusengwa owaabba ngʼali na iswe, lwaki ebintu ebibbibibbi binu byonabyona bitutuukireku? Era ebyewunyo abazeiza baiswe ebibatulonseryanga nga batukobera ngʼoMusengwa oweyabatoire omu Misiri biri yaina? Neye atyanu oMusengwa atulekeswire nʼatuwaayo omu bwezye bwʼaBamidiyaani.”
14 Awo oMusengwa* nʼalingirira oGidyoni nʼamukoba ati, “Oyabe nʼamaanigo agooli nago, onunule oIsirairi omu bwezye bwʼaBamidiyaani. Nze ninze nkutuma.”
15 OGidyoni nʼamukoba ati, “Musengwa wange, nanunula ntya oIsirairi? Abʼomulyango ogwange niibo abakira obunafu omu kika kya Manase, ate ninze omutomuto omu nyumba ya bbaabba.”
16 OMusengwa nʼamukoba ati, “Mazima njaba kubba aamo na iwe, era kyaba okukubbeera kyangu okuwangula aBamidiyaani ooti-so olwana na muntu moiza.”
17 OGidyoni nʼamwiramu ati, “Obwemba nga nsunire obukoda omumaisogo, ompe akamanyiciryo akalaga nga dala niiwe oMusengwa otumula na nze. 18 Nkwegairiire tiwaazwawo paka nga ndeetere obugeni era ni mbukuwa.”
Era oMusengwa nʼakoba ati, “Tinaazwewo paka owewaira.”
19 Awo oGidyoni nʼayaba, nʼasumba ombuli omutomuto atuukire okulya, nʼemigaati egibulamu okazumbulukuca omu kiro aabiri egyʼobusye. Enyama nʼagiteeka omu kidubi, nʼomuunyu nʼagusuka omu kibya, nʼabitwala eeri omalaika wa Musengwa, nʼabimuweera omu muvule nago.
20 OMalaika wa Musengwa nʼamukoba ati, “Okwate enyama nʼemigaati egibulamu okazumbulukuca obiteeke okwibbaale linu, kaisi obisukeku omuunyu.” Era oGidyoni nʼakola atyo. 21 Awo omalaika wa Musengwa nʼaguunya epembi wʼomwigo oguyabbaire akwaite, oku nyama nʼoku migaati egibulamu okazumbulukuca. Omusyo ni gutumbuka okuzwa omwibbaale, ni gwoca enyama nʼemigaati ni biwaawo. Awo oMalaika wa Musengwa nʼagotawo. 22 OGidyoni nʼakitegeera ati ogwaboine abbaire malaika wa Musengwa, nʼakoba ati, “Oo Musengwa iwe oMukulu nga ndabire! Mboine omalaikawo maiso ku maiso!”
23 OMusengwa nʼamukoba ati, “Tiweeraliikira era tiwaatya. Tiwaafe.”
24 Kale oGidyoni nʼayombekera oMusengwa ekyoto omu kifo ekyo, era nʼakyeta ati, “OMusengwa niiye eMirembe.” Paka lwatyanu kiri omu kibuga Ofula ekyʼaBabbiyezeeri.
25 Omu kiire ekyo, oMusengwa nʼakoba oGidyoni ati, “Okwate onumi owokubiri iye owʼemyanka omusanvu okuzwa omu kiraalo kya iteewo. Ovunewo ekyoto oiteewo ekiyayombekeire oBbaali, otemetemewo nʼekikondo kyʼAsera onkuni omukali ekiri okumpi nʼekyoto ekyo. 26 Awo kaisi oyombekere oMusengwa iye oKibbumbawo ekyoto oku nairungu wʼeibbaale linu, ngʼokolesya amabbaale amacaane kusani. Wakwata onte oyo owokubiri nʼomuwaayo ngʼesadaaka egibooca yonayona ngʼokolesya enkwi gyʼekikondo kyʼAsera onkuni omukali ekiwatema.”
27 Awo oGidyoni nʼatwala abasaiza ikumi oku baweereryabe, nʼakola ngʼoMusengwa obweyabbaire amulagiire. Neye olwʼokutya abʼenyumba ya iteeye nʼabʼomu kibuga, nʼakikola bwire.
28 Abantu abʼomu kibuga ekyo owebalamukire eizo amakeezikeezi, ni babona ngʼekyoto kya Bbaali kivunewo, nʼekikondo kyʼAsera onkuni omukali ekibbaire okumpi nga kitemewo, era nʼonumi owokubiri nga bamwoceirye oku kyoto ekibalukirewo.
29 Babuulyangaine bati, “Naani akolere kinu?”
Awo owebabuuliriirye eino, ni bazuula bati oGidyoni, omutaane wa Yowaasi niiye akikolere.
30 Awo ni bakoba oYowaasi bati, “Otooleyo omutaanewo tumwite, olwʼokubba avunirewo ekyoto kya Bbaali nʼatemawo nʼekikondo kyʼAsera onkuni omukali ekikibbaire okumpi.”
31 Cooka oYowaasi nʼakoba abo bonabona abamulumbire ati, “Mutaka kuwozererya oBbaali? Ooba mutaka kumulwanirira? Nabuli ataka okumulwanirira baaba okumwita nga bukaali okuca eizo. OBbaali owaabba nga dala kibbumba, ayezya okwerwanirira owebavunawo ekyotokye.” 32 Okuzwa kwolwo oGidyoni ni bamweta Yerubba Bbaali, ekikoba kiti, “Oleke oBbaali amulwanisye olwʼokubba avunirewo ekyoto kya Bbaali.”
33 Awo aBamidiyaani bonabona nʼaBamereki nʼabatyami abandi abʼe buzwaisana ni beekumba, ni bambuka omwiga oYoludaani, ni bakola enkambi omu kiinamo kyʼe Yezireeri. 34 Awo oMwoyo wa Musengwa nʼaika oku Gidyoni, nʼafuwa ekondeere okweta aBabbiyezeeri bamweyimbyeku. 35 Yatumire abakwenda omu byalo bya Manase byonabyona era okweta abaayo bona bamweyimbyeku. Era yatumire abakwenda eeri ekika kyʼAseri nʼekya Zebbulooni, nʼekya Nafutaali, ni baaba okumweyimbyaku.
36 Awo oGidyoni nʼakoba oKibbumba ati, “Owoobba nga wanunula oIsirairi ngʼonkolesya ngʼowewakobere, 37 aale ngonu ndi kuteeka ebyoya bya ntaama e gibakonera engaano. Amakeezi olume owerwabba ku byoya byonkani, eitakali nga likalu, nʼamanya nga wanunula oIsirairi ngʼonkolesya.” 38 Kityo wekyabbaire. OGidyoni oweyalamukire eizo amakeezikeezi, nʼakamula ebyoya nʼabimalamu olume, nʼaizulya ekibya.
39 Awo oGidyoni nʼakoba oKibbumba ati, “Tiwansunguwalira. Oleke nkusabeyo omulundi ogundi gumo. Oganye ngezeserye ku byoya. Oku mulundi gunu, oleke byoya niibyo ebibba bibbe bikalu, kaisi eitakali iryo lidode nʼolume.” 40 Era ekiire ekyo, oKibbumba nʼakola atyo. Eizo amakeezi ebyoya niibyo ebyabbaire ebikalu, kaisi eitakali ni libba lidodi nʼolume.
