Ikyanya tukahisa imyaka makumi gabiri niꞌtaanu tutwazirwi i mahanga, mu siku ikumi zoꞌmwezi gweꞌndondeko za yugwo mwaka, akaaya keꞌYerusaleemu kanaba kahisa imyaka ikumi niꞌna kahongwirwi. Mu lwolwo-lwolwo lusiku, Nahano ananyijuza mwoꞌbushobozi bwage, nanayuvwa kwo andwala i Yerusaleemu. 
Mu yago mabone, nanabona kwo Rurema agweti agandwala mu kihugo kyeꞌHisiraheeri, anambiika ku kanywangi-nywangi koꞌmugazi, uluhande lweꞌkisaka. Kwokwo, nanabona ákali ngaꞌkaaya. 
Iri Rurema akaba keera andwala yaho, nanabona umundu ayimaaziri mu mulyango, akeyengiini nga mulinga, anafumbiiti umugozi gweꞌkitaani, niꞌsanga. Yibyo byombi, âli kizi bikoleesa mu kugera. 
Uyo mundu anambwira kwokuno: «E mwana woꞌmundu, uloleekeze bwija, unayitegeereze. Ngiisi kyoshi kyo ngakuyereka, ukisingule mu mutima. Mukuba, byebyo byo bitumiri waleetwa hano. Aaho! Byoshi byo ugaabona, ukwiriiri ugendi bimenyeesa Abahisiraheeri.» 
Lyeryo, nanabona inyumba ya Rurema, imbuga, izungulusirwi neꞌkibambaazi. Uyo mundu anayabiiraga lirya isanga lyoꞌkugera mwo. Ubula-bula bwalyo, zâli hisiri meetere zishatu. Kwokwo, analikoleesa mu kugera yikyo kibambaazi, anabona kweꞌkita kyakyo, zâli meetere zishatu, neꞌkimango, zindi meetere zishatu. 
Ha nyuma, anagenda iwa mulyango gweꞌsheere, anashonera ku bishonero, anagera ikihamambiro kyagwo. Mu matambi, kyanahisa imeetere zishatu. 
Yaho, hâli riiri injira yoꞌkuyingirira. Ngiisi luhande, hâli riiri ibisiika bishatu-bishatu byaꞌbalaliizi. Na ngiisi kisiika, ibibambaazi byakyo byâli yumiini, byanâli riiri byeꞌmeetere zishatu-zishatu. Yibyo bisiika, byâli yihanduliini kwo neꞌbibambaazi byeꞌkita kyeꞌmeetere zibiri-zibiri neꞌkitolo. Kwakundi, hâli riiri ubululi bweꞌmeetere zishatu, úbwâli kizi lolana neꞌkisiika kihamu kyeꞌmbere lyeꞌnyumba ya Rurema. 
Yikyo kisiika, ulya mundu anakigera mu nda yakyo, anabona kwo kihisiizi imeetere zina. 
Ha nyuma, anagera ibibambaazi byakyo byeꞌmbuga, byanaba neꞌkita kyeꞌmeetere nguma-nguma. Iwa mulyango, uluhande lwa mu nda, ho hâli yegereriini bweneene neꞌnyumba ya Rurema. 
Na birya bisiika ndatu byaꞌbalaliizi byeꞌwa mulyango úguli isheere yeꞌnyumba ya Rurema, kwo biri byoshi, byâli yumiini. Byâli bishatu-bishatu ngiisi luhande lweꞌnjira yoꞌkuyingirira. Neꞌbibambaazi íbyâli bihandwiri, nabyo byâli yumiini ikita. 
Kwakundi, ulya mundu anagera injira yoꞌkugenda iwa mulyango, yanahisa imeetere ndatu neꞌkitolo, ku meetere zitaanu. 
Imbere lya birya bisiika byaꞌbalaliizi byeꞌmeetere zishatu-zishatu, hâli riiri ikibambaazi kyofi kyoꞌkukizi zibira. Ikimango kyakyo, zâli riiri sendimeetere makumi gataanu, neꞌkita kyeꞌzindi sendimeetere makumi gataanu. 
Ulya mundu anashubi gera ukulyokera ku kibambaazi kyeꞌnyuma lyeꞌkisiika kiguma, halinde ku kibambaazi kyeꞌnyuma kyeꞌkindi kisiika, íkiri mu lolana naꞌhandu ho kulenga, analonga imeetere ikumi na zibiri neꞌsendimeetere makumi gataanu. 
Ikisiika kyeꞌmbeka bweneene, kyâli zungulusirwi noꞌlubuga. Nakyo, anakigera, kyanahisa imeetere ikumi. 
Ukutondeerera ha njira yoꞌkugenda iwa mulyango, halinde ukuhisa ku bululi bweꞌkati, zâli riiri meetere makumi gabiri na zitaanu. 
Birya bisiika byoshi, ku bihamambiro byeꞌmbuga, kwâli riiri utwazo tuniini-tuniini, tulingaanie mu tuyungiro tweꞌbyuma. Twanâli riiri kiri na ku bibambaazi íbyâli kizi bihandula. Na ku bibambaazi byeꞌkati, kwâli kushoore ibiti byeꞌbigazi. 
Ulya mundu anandwala, halinde mu lubuga lweꞌmbuga lweꞌnyumba ya Rurema. Mu yulwo lubuga, mwâli museemanie neꞌshima. Lwanâli zungulusirwi neꞌbisiika makumi gashatu. 
Kiri na ha miryango yoshi hâli haseemanie uluhande noꞌlundi. Yaho, ho hâli riiri mwiꞌdako lyoꞌbululi bweꞌkati. 
Ulya mundu anagera injira íyâli kizi lyoka mu lubuga lweꞌkati, ku luhande lwayo lwiꞌfwo halinde imbuga, zâli meetere makumi gataanu. 
Ha nyuma, ulya mundu anashubi gera umulyango úguli imbembe yoꞌlubuga lweꞌmbuga. 
Yugwo mulyango, ngiisi luhande hâli riiri ibisiika bishatu byaꞌbalaliizi. Ulugero lweꞌbihamambiro byagwo kuguma neꞌnguliro zaagwo, byâli yumiini noꞌlugero lwoꞌmulyango gwoꞌkuyingirira isheere. Injira yâli yeꞌmeetere makumi gabiri na zitaanu, ku meetere ikumi na zibiri neꞌsendimeetere makumi gataanu. 
Ikisiika kyoꞌkuyingirira, noꞌtwazo twakyo, kiri na birya bishushanio byeꞌbiti byeꞌbigazi íbyâli bishoore ku bibambaazi, byoshi byâli shushiini neꞌbya gulya mulyango gweꞌsheere. Hanâli riiri ibishonero birinda, neꞌmitanda imbere lyabyo. 
Ukulyokera yaho ku njira yoꞌkuyingirira uluhande lweꞌmbembe, halinde ukuhulukaana ubululi bweꞌkati, hâli riiri ugundi mulyango gwoꞌkuyingirira. Iyo njira yâli kizi lola iwa lubuga lweꞌkati, nga kwo bikaba ku luhande lweꞌsheere. Ulya mundu anagera ha kati keꞌyo miryango yombi, analonga imeetere makumi gataanu. 
Ulya mundu anandwala uluhande lweꞌkisaka. Iyo munda yâli riiri ugundi mulyango. Mbu agere ibihamambiro byagwo, kuguma noꞌbululi bwayo, analonga byebirya-byebirya bigero byeꞌbindi bihamambiro. 
Imbande zooshi, yâli riiri utwazo, nga kwo twâli ku bindi bisiika. Yutwo twazo, twâli tweꞌmeetere makumi gabiri na zitaanu, ku meetere ikumi na zibiri, neꞌsendimeetere makumi gataanu. 
Mu kuhika ha yugwo mulyango, hâli ibishonero birinda. Na ku mbeka yagwo, hâli ubululi úbwâli kizi lolana noꞌlubuga. Ku kibambaazi kyeꞌkati, akajabo naꞌkandi keꞌnjira yoꞌkuyingirira, kwâli kushoore ibiti byeꞌbigazi. 
Ku mbeka yeꞌyo njira yoꞌmulyango gwoꞌkuyingirira ikisaka, hâli ugundi mulyango gwoꞌkuyingira mu lubuga lweꞌkati. Ulya mundu anagera ha kati keꞌyo miryango yombi, analonga imeetere makumi gataanu. 
Ulya mundu anandeeza mu njira yoꞌkuyingirira mu mulyango gweꞌkisaka, twanahika mu lubuga lweꞌkati. Iyo njira anagigera, anabona kwo iyumiini na zirya zindi njira zoꞌkuhulukaana iwa bibambaazi byeꞌmbuga. 
Ibisiika byaꞌbalaliizi, noꞌbululi, kuguma neꞌbibambaazi byoꞌkubihandula, byâli yumiini na birya bindi bisiika. Iyo njira kuguma noꞌbululi, kwâli riiri utwazo. Yutwo twazo, twâli tweꞌmeetere makumi gabiri na zitaanu, ku meetere ikumi na zibiri neꞌsendimeetere makumi gataanu. 
Mu matambi geꞌyo njira yoꞌkuyingirira, mwâli ibisiika byeꞌmeetere makumi gabiri na zitaanu ku meetere ikumi na zibiri neꞌsendimeetere makumi gataanu. 
Bulya bululi, bwâli kizi lola uluhande lweꞌwa lubuga lweꞌmbuga. Iyo njira yoꞌkuyingirira, ku nguliro zaayo za mu matambi, kwâli kushoore ibiti byeꞌbigazi. Ha yugwo mulyango, mu kuhagenda, bâli kizi shona ku bishonero munaana. 
Ha nyuma, ulya mundu anandeeza mu mulyango gweꞌsheere, anandwala mu lubuga lweꞌkati. Anagera injira yoꞌkuyingirira, anabona kwo iyumiini neꞌzaabo. 
Ibisiika byayo byaꞌbalaliizi, neꞌnguliro zaayo zeꞌkati, kuguma noꞌbululi, byoshi byâli yumiini neꞌbyabo. Iyo njira, imbande zaayo zooshi kiri neꞌza yubwo bululi, zâli riiri noꞌtwazo. Zanâli zeꞌmeetere makumi gabiri na zitaanu ku meetere ikumi na zibiri neꞌsendimeetere makumi gataanu. 
Kirya kisiika kyoꞌkuyingirira, kyâli kizi lola iwa lubuga lweꞌmbuga. Imbande zooshi zeꞌbibambaazi byeꞌkati, kwâli kushoore ibiti byeꞌbigazi. Mu kugenda iwa yugwo mulyango, bâli kizi shonera ku bishonero munaana. 
Ha nyuma, ulya mundu anandeeza mu mulyango gweꞌmbembe, anandwala mu lubuga lweꞌkati. Anagera injira yoꞌkuyingirira, anabona kwo iyumiini neꞌzaabo. 
Iyo munda nayo, yâli ibisiika byaꞌbalaliizi, neꞌbibambaazi byeꞌkati íbyâli limbisiibwi ngana-ngana, hâli noꞌbululi bwoꞌkuyingirira, noꞌtwazo ngiisi luhande. Yugwo mulyango, gwâli gweꞌmeetere makumi gabiri na zitaanu, ku meetere ikumi na zibiri neꞌsendimeetere makumi gataanu. 
Bulya bululi bwoꞌkuyingirira, bwâli kizi lola iwa lubuga lweꞌmbuga. Imbande zooshi ku bibambaazi byeꞌkati, kwâli kushoore ibiti byeꞌbigazi. Mu kugenda iwa yugwo mulyango, bâli kizi shonera ku bishonero munaana. 
Mu lubuga lweꞌmbuga, hâli ikindi kisiika íkyâli nanisirwi ku njira yoꞌkuyingirira uluhande lweꞌmbembe. Yikyo kisiika, kyâli kizi lola iwa bululi bwoꞌkuyingirira, na yaho ho bâli kizi yeruukiza ibitugwa byo bâli kizi baaga, bibe matuulo goꞌkusiriiza lwoshi. 
Mu yubwo bululi, ngiisi luhande lweꞌnjira, hâli utushasha tubiri-tubiri. Ku yutwo tushasha, kwo bâli kizi baagira amatuulo goꞌkusiriiza lwoshi, naꞌgandi goꞌkukogwa ibyaha, na goꞌkuhyula. 
Imbuga lya yubwo bululi, hâli utushasha tuna. Tubiri-tubiri, mu njira yoꞌkuyingirira iwa mulyango gweꞌmbembe. 
Yutwo tushasha twoshi útukakoleesibwa mu kukizi baagira kweꞌbitugwa byaꞌmatuulo goꞌkusiriiza, twâli riiri munaana. Tuna twâli mu bululi, noꞌtundi tuna twâli imbuga lyabwo. 
Kwakundi, mu yubwo bululi, mwâli utundi tushasha tuna, útwâli kizi koleesibwa mu kutegaanura amatuulo goꞌkusiriiza. Yutwo tushasha twâli yubasirwi naꞌmabuye mabaaje. Ngiisi kashasha, imbande zaako zâli yumiini. Ngiisi luhande, zâli sendimeetere makumi galinda na zitaanu, neꞌkimango kyeꞌsendimeetere makumi gataanu. Ku yutwo tushasha, kwo bâli kizi singula ibikolanwa byoshi íbyâli kizi koleesibwa mu kutongeera amatuulo goꞌkusiriiza kuguma naꞌgandi. 
Mu yubwo bululi, bâli humbiri ingera yeꞌndambo nguma yeꞌkigasha. Iyo ngera, yâli zungulusiri tulya tushasha, tunali two bâli kizi shasha kwo zirya nyama zaꞌmatuulo. 
Imbuga lyoꞌlubuga lweꞌkati hâli ibisiika byaꞌbimbi. Kisiika kiguma, kyâli hoofi noꞌmulyango gweꞌmbembe, kyanâli kizi lola ikisaka. Ikyabo, kyâli hoofi noꞌmulyango gweꞌkisaka, kyanâli kizi lola imbembe. 
Kwokwo, ulya mundu anambwiraga kwokuno: «Yiki kisiika íkiri mu lola ikisaka, kiri kyaꞌbagingi ábali mu kola mu nyumba ya Rurema. 
Neꞌkisiika íkiri mu lola imbembe, kiri kyaꞌbagingi ábali mu kola ha katanda. Na yabo bagingi, bali balya ba mwiꞌkondo lya Saadoki naaho. Mukuba, mu mulala gwa Laawi, bo bahangwirwi ukuyegeera Nahano.» 
Ulya mundu anagera ulubuga lweꞌkati, anabona kweꞌmbande zooshi ziyumiini. Ngiisi luhande zâli meetere makumi gataanu. Imbere lyeꞌyo nyumba ya Rurema, hâli riiri akatanda. 
Ha nyuma, anandwala mu bululi bwoꞌkuyingirira mu nyumba ya Nahano. Iri akagera umulyango, gwâli gweꞌmeetere zibiri neꞌsendimeetere makumi gataanu ku meetere zirinda. Neꞌbibambaazi byalwo, ngiisi luhande, byâli hiiti ikita kyeꞌmeetere nguma neꞌsendimeetere makumi gataanu. 
Ikisiika kyoꞌkuyingirira kyâli kyeꞌmeetere ikumi, ku meetere ndatu. Na ha ngiisi luhande lwoꞌmulyango, hâli inguliro nguma. Mu kuyingira yaho, hâli ibishonero byoꞌkushonera kwo.
