OKamani asala olukwe okujigirica aBayudaaya
1 Ebyo owebyawoire, okabaka Akaswero nʼakulya oKamani. OKamani eyabbaire omutaane wa Kameedasa, owʼomwibyaire lyʼAgagi, nʼamukulya era nʼamusuuca okubba owʼekitiisya okukiraku abakungu abandi bonabona. 2 Abakungu ba kabaka bonabona ababbaire oku geeti ya kabaka, ni bakomeranga oKamani amazwi okumuwa ekitiisya, ngʼokabaka oweyabbaire alagiire. Neye oMoludekaayi nʼagaana okukomeranga oKamani amazwi, waire okumuwa ekitiisya.
3 Awo abakungu ba kabaka ababbaire oku geeti ni babuulya oMoludekaayi bati, “Lwaki ojeemera ekiragiro kya kabaka?” 4 Atyanu ni wabitawo ekiseera nga bamukoba nabuli lunaku, neye nʼagaana okubawulira. Nʼolwʼekyo ni bakobera oKamani, okubona nga yaguminkiriza empisa gya Moludekaayi, olwʼokubba oMoludekaayi yabbaire abakobeire ati Muyudaaya.
5 OKamani oweyaboine ngʼoMoludekaayi tamukomera amazwi waire okumuwa ekitiisya, nʼasunguwala ino. 6 Era oweyakitegeire ati oMoludekaayi Muyudaaya, nʼamalirira okutaita oMoludekaayi yenkani, wazira nʼokujigirica abantu ba Moludekaayi, nga niibo aBayudaaya bonabona abali omu bwakabaka bwʼAkaswero bwonabwona.
7 Omu mwanka ogweikumi na mibiri ogwʼobufugi bwa kabaka Akaswero, omu mweri ogusooka, ogubeeta omweri ogwa Nisaani, oKamani nʼalagira okukubba akalulu, ako akebeeta oPuli, okubona olunaku nʼomweri, ogwʼokujigiriciryamu aBayudaaya bonabona omu lunaku olumo. Olunaku lwabbaire lweikumi na isatu, omu omweri ogweikumi na mibiri igwo omweri ogubeeta Adali.
8 Awo oKamani nʼakoba okabaka Akaswero ati, “Waliwo eigwanga lyʼabantu erimo erisaalaine ni libuna omu bantu, omu bitundu byonabyona ebyʼobwakabakabwo. Amateeka gaabwe, gʼenjabulo oku gʼabantu abandi bonabona, era tibakwata amateekago. Nʼolwekyo tikigasa iwe kabaka okubaguminkiriza. 9 Singa owekubba kusiimakwo kabaka, obitye eiteeka eriragira babajigirice. Ekyo owewakikola, njaba okuleeta omwigwanika lyʼobwakabaka etalanta egyʼefeeza 10,000 ngikwatisye abo abalabirira emirimo egyʼobwakabakabwo.”
10 Awo okabaka ni yeetoola oku ngaloye empeta eriku eraama eyʼobwakabaka, nʼagiwa oKamani, iye omutaane wa Kameedasa owʼomwibyaire lyʼAgagi era omulabe wʼaBayudaaya. 11 Okabaka nʼamukoba ati, “Empiiya ogisigaze, nʼabantu abo nkwikiriirye obakoleku ekyotaka.”
12 Awo oku naku nga ikumi na isatu olwʼomweri ogusooka, ni beeta abawandiiki ba kabaka. Ni bawandiika ekiragiro, omuli byonabyona oKamani ebiyalagiire abakungu ba kabaka, nʼabeekubbemberibe abafuga nabuli itwale, nʼabeekubbemberi aba nabuli itwale, nʼabafugi ba buli igwanga. Ni bawandiika ebintu oKamani ebiyalagiire omu mpandiika eya buli itwale era eya buli igwanga omu lutumu lwabwe. Ekiragiro ni bakiwandiika omu liina lya kabaka Akaswero, era ni bakiteekaku eraama yʼempetaye ngʼakamanyiciryoke. 13 Abakwenda ni batwala ekiragiro ekyo mu buli itwale okabaka eryafuga. Ekiragiro kyabbairemu okulagira okwita, nʼokujigirica, nʼokumalirawo nakimo aBayudaaya bonabona, abatobato nʼabakulu, abakali nʼabaana, omu lunaku lumo nga ikumi na isatu, omu mweri ogweikumi na mibiri, igwo omweri ogubeeta Adali, nʼokunyaga ebintu byabwe. 14 Ekopi gyʼekiwandiike kyʼekiragiro ekyo ni gibba mu buli itwale, ni gikola ngʼeiteeka eeri abantu bonabona beetegekere olunaku olwo.
15 Okabaka nʼalagira abakwenda ni baaba, ni basaalaania mangu eiteeka eryo omu kibuga ekikulu oSusa. Era okabaka nʼoKamani ni batyama okwekubba ekigeni, neye ngʼekibuga kyonakyona ekikulu oSusa, kiri mu kuwuninkirira.
