Hazageno nenaroma ahe fri'naza Livae ne'mo'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Benzameni nagamofo kumate Gibea masenaku a'ni'ane nagranena emani'no'e.

5 Abasajja ab’e Gibea ne bangolokokerako mu kiro, ne bazingiza ennyumba gye twalimu, ne baagala okunzita. Kyokka ne bakwata mukazi wange ne bamusobyako n’afa.

Hianagi ana kenagera Gibea kumate vahe'mo'za eme tavazagigagi'za nahe'za nehu'za, a'ni'a avre'za monko'zana hunentazageno fri'ne.

Hagi anagema hige'za, maka Israeli vahe'mo'za magoke zamagi ante'za amanage hu'naze, Mago'mo'e huno seli noma'arega ovuge, noma'arega ovuge hugahie.

9 Naye kaakano ekintu kye tulikola Gibea okumulwanyisa, kwe kumukubira akalulu.

10 Abantu kkumi ku bantu kikumi okuva mu bika byonna ebya Isirayiri, n’abalala kikumi ku bantu olukumi, n’abalala lukumi ku bantu omutwalo ogumu bagende bafunire eggye ebyetaago. Eggye bwe lirituuka e Gibea eky’e Benyamini balyoke bababonereze ng’ekikolwa kyabwe eby’obugwenyufu bwe kiri, kye baakola mu Isirayiri.”

Hagi 100'a Israeli vahepintira 10ni'a vaheke nezamavareta, 1tauseni'a vahepintira 100'a vahe nezamavareta, 10 tauseni'a vahepintira 1tauseni'a vahetami zamavaresunke'za Gibea kumate vahe'mo'zama Israeli vahe amu'nompima kasrino havizantfama hu'nea monko avu'avazama hu'nazare'ma ha'ma ome huzmante'za zamavu'za zamagesazama hanaza sondia vahe'mokizmi ne'zana eri'za vugahaze.

Ana nehu'za Israeli vahe'mo'za Benzameni nagatega amanage hu'za kea atrazageno vu'ne. Nankna kefo avu'avaza amu'nontamifina fore hu'ne?

13 Kale kaakano muweeyo abasajja abaana b’ebikolwa ebitali bya butuukirivu abali mu Gibea tubatte, tuggyewo ekibi mu Isirayiri.” Naye abaana ba Benyamini ne bagaana okuwuliriza eddoboozi ly’abaana ba Isirayiri.

E'ina hazenke vahetmina Gibea kumapintira avre taminketa zamahe frisunkeno, Israeli mopamo'a agru hino. Hianagi zamafuhe'zama Israeli vahe'mo'za hazankea Benjamen naga'mo'za ontahi'naze.

14 Awo abaana ba Benyamini ne bakuŋŋaanira mu Gibea nga bava mu bibuga byonna, bagende balwanyise abaana ba Isirayiri.

Ana nehu'za maka Benzameni mopafima me'nea ranra kumatamimpinti vahe'mo'za Israeli vahera hara huzamantenaku Gibea kumate emeritru hu'naze.

15 Ku lunaku olwo, abaana ba Benyamini ne bavaayo okuva mu bibuga abasajja abalina ebitala emitwalo ebiri mu kakaaga.

Hagi Benzameni naga'mofo kumatamimpintira kazinteti'ma ha'ma hu vahera 26 tauseni'a vahe eritru hazageno, Gibea kumatetira anampina 700'a hankave sondia vahetami eritru hu'naze.

16 Mu bantu abo bonna mwalimu abasajja abalondemu lusanvu abakozesa kkono. Buli omu ku bo yayinzanga okuteeka ejjinja mu nvumuulo ekube oluviiri, n’atasubwa.

Hagi e'i ana 700'a ha' vahetmina hoga kazigati hara hu vahetminkino, kumi atifima havema ante'zama osi'zama ahesazana hantaga osugahaze.

17 Abasajja ba Isirayiri, nga totaddeeko abava mu Benyamini, ne bakuŋŋaana abasajja abalwanyi abasitula ebitala, emitwalo amakumi ana.

Hagi kazinteti'ma ha'ma hu vahera 400 tauseni'a Israeli vahera eritru hu'za, Benzameni nagara hara huzmante'naku hu'naze.

18 Abaana ba Isirayiri ne bagolokoka ne bayambuka e Beseri ne beebuuza ku Katonda nga bagamba nti, “Ani ku ffe alisooka okugenda okulwanyisa abaana ba Benyamini?” Mukama n’abaddamu nti, “Yuda yalisooka.”

Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za henka hara ome hugahunanki hu'za nehu'za, esera Beteli kumate vu'za Anumzamofona amanage hu'za ome antahige'naze. Ina naga nofimo'za vugota hurantesageta Benzameni nagara hara ome huzmantegahune? Hu'za hazageno, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno zamasami'ne, Juda naga'mo'za vugota hu'za vugahaze.

19 Abaana ba Isirayiri ne bagolokoka mu makya ne basiisira okumpi ne Gibea.

Hagi anagema hutege'za Israeli vahe'mo'za nantera otiza Gibea kuma tava'onte vu'za seli nonkumazmia ome ki'za mani'naze.

20 Abasajja ba Isirayiri ne bagenda okulwanyisa Benyamini, n’abasajja ba Benyamini ne basimba ennyiriri okulwanyisa abasajja ba Isirayiri e Gibea.

Hagi anante Israeli vahe'mo'za Benzameni nagara ha' ome huzamante'naku Gibea kumate ome erimpi hu'za oti'naze.

21 Abaana ba Benyamini ne bava mu Gibea ne batta abasajja ba Isirayiri emitwalo ebiri mu enkumi bbiri mu lutalo ku lunaku olwo.

Hagi anama hazageno'a Benzameni naga'mo'za Gibea kumapintira atiramiza Israeli vahe'enena hara eme nehu'za, ana zupa 22 tauseni'a Israeli sondia vahera zamahe fri'naze.

22 Naye abantu bazzaamu abasajja ba Isirayiri amaanyi, ne baddayo ne basimba ennyiriri mu kifo mwe baali ku lunaku olwasooka.

Ana hute'za Israeli vahe'mo'za Beteli kumate mareri'za, Ra Anumzamofontega zavi krafa ome nehazageno vuno kinagase'ne. Hagi zavima nete'za amanage hu'za Ra Anumzamofona antahige'naze. Tafuhe'mofona Benzameni nagara ete hara ome huzamantenumpi atrenune? Hu'za hazageno, Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno hu'ne, Vuta hara ome huzamanteho.

24 Ku lunaku olwokubiri Abayisirayiri ne basembera okulwanyisa Ababenyamini.

Anagema hige'za mase'za anante nanterana vu'za Benzameni nagara hara ome huzamante'naze.

25 Ababenyamini ne bavaayo ne balumba okuva e Gibea, ne batta abaana ba Isirayiri abalala omutwalo gumu mu kanaana mu lutalo ku lunaku olwo olwokubiri; Abayisirayiri abo bonna baalina ebitala.

Hagi Benzameni naga'mo'za ete mago'ane Gibea kumapintira atirami'za 18 tauseni'a Israeli vahetamina kazinteti'ma ha'ma nehaza vahera zamahe fri'naze.

26 Awo abaana ba Isirayiri bonna n’abantu bonna, ne bambuka okulaga e Beseri, ne bakaabira Mukama Katonda ne batuula eyo mu maaso ge ne basiiba olunaku olwo okutuusa akawungeezi, lwe baawaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe mu maaso ga Mukama.

32 Abaana ba Benyamini bwe baagambanga nti, “Tubawangula nga luli bwe kyali ku mulundi ogwasooka,” Abayisirayiri bo ne beeteesa nti, “Tuddeyoko emabega, tubasikirize okubaggya mu kibuga badde mu nguudo.”

Hagi Benzameni naga'mo'za amanage hu'naze, kote'ma hu'nonaza huta Israeli vahera zamahone. Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'za amange hu'naze, Atreta nefreta zami'mi huta karanka vanunke'za, kumazmia atre'za afete egahaze.
