² Bibatera ubwoba cyane, kuko Gibewoni wari umugi mugari ungana n’imigi ifite abami, uruta kure Hayi kandi abantu bawo bose bakaba intwari.

³ Adoni‐Sedeki, umwami wa Yeruzalemu, yohereza intumwa kwa Howamu, umwami w’i Heburoni, kwa Pireyamu, umwami wa Yarimuti, kwa Yafiya, umwami wa Lakishi, no kwa Debiri, umwami wa Egiloni, ati

⁴ «Muzamuke muze iwanjye, muntabare turwanye Gibewoni kuko yagiranye isezerano ry’amahoro na Yozuwe n’Abayisraheli.»

⁵ Abo bami batanu b’Abahemori, ari bo umwami wa Yeruzalemu, uwa Heburoni, uwa Yarimuti, uwa Lakishi n’uwa Egiloni, bishyira hamwe maze bazamukana n’imitwe y’ingabo zabo yose, bajya guca ingando imbere y’umugi wa Gibewoni kugira ngo bawutere.

⁷ Yozuwe n’imbaga yose yakereye kurwana bava i Giligali, barazamuka.

⁸ Uhoraho abwira Yozuwe, ati «Ntutinye, nabakweguriye; nta n’umwe muri bo uzaguhangara.»

¹⁰ Uhoraho abaca intege imbere ya Israheli, maze banesherezwa bikomeye i Gibewoni; abakurikirana ahamanuka hagana i Betihoroni, maze arabarwanya kugeza i Azeki n’i Makeda.

¹¹ Uko bagahunze Israheli bakamanuka Betihoroni, Uhoraho abamanuriraho amabuye manini ava mu ijuru barinda bagera i Azeki, maze barapfa. Abishwe n’amabuye y’urubura babaye benshi, kuruta abishwe n’inkota y’Abayisraheli.

¹² Kuri uwo munsi, umunsi Uhoraho yegurira Abahemori mu maboko y’Abayisraheli, ni ho Yozuwe yabwiriye Uhoraho imbere y’Abayisraheli, ati «Zuba, hagarara hejuru ya Gibewoni, nawe kwezi, hejuru y’akabande ka Ayaloni!»

¹³ Nuko izuba rirahagarara, n’ukwezi ntikongera gutirimuka, kugeza ubwo Abayisraheli bamaze kwivuna abanzi babo. Ibyo se, si ko byanditswe mu «Gitabo cy’Intungane»? Izuba ryemaraye hagati ku ijuru maze ntiryihutira kurenga, bimara nk’umunsi wose.

¹⁹ Naho mwe ntimuhatinde, nimukurikire abanzi banyu mubabuze ubuhumeka; kandi ntimukareke basubira mu migi yabo, kuko Uhoraho, Imana yanyu, yababeguriye.»

²⁵ Yozuwe ati «Mwitinya kandi ntimugire ubwoba, mukomere kandi mube intwari! Kuko ari uko Uhoraho azagenzereza abanzi bose muzashyamirana.»
