Abacamanza

12 Nuko abakomoka kuri Efurayimu batumanaho bambuka i Safoni,* babwira Yefuta bati: “Kuki wambutse ukajya kurwana n’Abamoni+ utaduhamagaye ngo tujyane? Turagutwikiraho inzu yawe.” 2 Yefuta arabasubiza ati: “Njye n’ingabo zanjye twagiranye ibibazo bikomeye n’Abamoni. Narabahamagaye ngo muntabare, ariko ntimwaza kubankiza. 3 Mbonye ko mutari bunkize, niyemeza gushyira ubuzima bwanjye mu kaga ntera Abamoni,+ nuko Yehova atuma mbatsinda. None se kuki muje kundwanya?”

4 Yefuta ahita ateranyiriza hamwe abagabo bose b’i Gileyadi,+ barwana n’abakomoka kuri Efurayimu. Nuko ab’i Gileyadi batsinda abakomoka kuri Efurayimu kuko bari babacyuriye bati: “Mwebwe ab’i Gileyadi, nubwo mutuye mu karere ka Efurayimu n’aka Manase, muri impunzi zavuye muri Efurayimu!” 5 Nuko ab’i Gileyadi bafata ibyambu bya Yorodani+ mbere y’uko Abefurayimu bahagera. Iyo abo muri Efurayimu bahageraga bahunze bakavuga bati: “Nimutureke,” ab’i Gileyadi babazaga buri wese bati: “Uri uwo muri Efurayimu?” Yasubiza ati: “Oya,” 6 bakamubwira bati: “Ngaho vuga ijambo Shiboleti,” na we akavuga ati: “Siboleti,” kuko atashoboraga kuvuga iryo jambo neza. Bahitaga bamufata bakamwicira aho ku byambu bya Yorodani. Icyo gihe hapfuye abantu 42.000 bo muri Efurayimu.
