Awo oYoswa omutaane wa Nuuni omu kyama nʼatuma abakeeti babiri okuzwa omu Sitimu, nʼabakoba ati, “Mwabe mwetegereze ekyalo kyʼe Kanani, eino eino ekibuga oYeriko.” Kale ni baaba, owebatuukire omu kibuga ekyo ni baingira e wa malaaya, ogubeeta oLakabbu, ni bagonayo. 
OKabaka wʼe Yeriko ni bamukobera ngʼewaliwo abamo oku Baisirairi abaizire oku lunaku olwo okukeeta ekyalo ekyo. 
Kale okabaka wʼe Yeriko nʼasindika obukwenda eeri oLakabbu ati, “Owuluceyo abantu abaizire ni baingira e wuwo, olwʼokubba baizire kukeeta kyalo kinu kyonakyona.” 
Neye omukali oyo yabbaire amalire okutwala abasaiza abo ababiri okubabisa. Iye omukali oyo nʼakoba ati, “Kituuce, abantu abo baizire e wange, neye nze tinamaite e gibazwire. 
Akanaigulo ekiseera kyʼokwigalawo egeeti yʼekibuga owekituukire, abasaiza abo beeyabiire. Nandi ni mmanya nziraki egibakwaite. Mwabe mangu mubanoonie. Muyinza okubaajirya.” 
Neye yabbaire amalire okubaniinisya e ngulu oku nyumbaye, ngʼababisire omu binywa byʼenkokooli ebiyabbaire acaanire e ngulu oku nyumba. 
Awo abasaiza abebabbaire batumire ni bayiigangana nʼabakeeti nga bakwaite oluguudo olwaba oku byambu byʼomwiga oYoludaani. Era nga badi abayiiga bankuzwa omu kibuga, egeeti yaakyo ni bagiigalawo. 
Abakeeti nga bakaali okugona, oLakabbu nʼaniina e gibabbaire e ngulu oku nyumba 
kaisi nʼabakoba ati, “Mmaite ngʼoMusengwa abawaire ekyalo kinu era ensisi etukwaite oku lwanywe. Era abantu bonabona entiisya ebakwaite oku lwanywe. 
Ekyo kityo olwʼokubba twawuliire ngʼoMusengwa oweyabakaliirye eNyanza eNtukuliki owemwazwereire omu Misiri. Era nʼekimwakolere abakabaka ababiri abʼaBamooli, oSikoni nʼOgi, ababbaire e buzwaisana wʼomwiga oYoludaani, abemwajigiriciirye nʼakimo. 
Owetwakiwuliire emyoyo gyatuwoiremu ino, era nabuli moiza nʼaweeramu nakimo amaani oku lwanywe, olwʼokubba oMusengwa iye oKibbumba waanywe, niiye oKibbumba aali angulu omwigulu, nʼansi oku kyalo. 
Kale atyanu mbegairira mundayirire omu liina lya Musengwa iye oKibbumba waanywe, muti abʼolulyo lwange mwalibakwatira ekisa, olwʼokubba mbakwatiire inywe ekisa. Mumpe akamanyiciryo akakakasa, 
nga timwaliita obbaabba nʼomama nʼaboonyoko bange nʼabaganda bange, nʼabʼomu maka gaabwe bonabona, era nga mwalitulamya okutwita. 
“Abasaiza ni beeyama bati, ‘Tusingawo obwomi bwaiswe okulwa bwomi bwanywe. Singa timwaloope ebituli kukola, oMusengwa oweyalituwa ekyalo kinu, swena twalibba bʼamazima ni tubakwatira ekisa.’ ” 
Awo oLakabbu nʼabaicirya oku muguwa ngʼababitya omu dinisa, olwʼokubba enyumba egiyabbaire abbaamu yabbaire nkwatisye oku kitempe ekyʼekikomera ekyʼekibuga ekyo. 
Atyanu oLakabbu yabbaire abakobere ati, “Mwabe mu nsozisozi, ababayiiga tibababona. Mwebise eeyo enaku isatu paka owebalikanga, kaisi awo ni mwekwatira enzira yaanywe.” 
Abasaiza abo ni bamukoba bati, “Ekirayiro kinu ekyotulayirisirye titwalikikuuma 
okutoolaku, owetwalingirira omu kyalo kinu ngʼosibire akaguwa kanu akatukuliki omu dinisa egyotubitiiryemu. Era okutoolaku ngʼosolongeire omu nyumbayo oiteewo nʼomaawo, nʼaboonyokobo nʼabʼolulyolwo bonabona. 
Singa walibbaawo awuluka omu nyumbayo nʼaira omu luguudo, yalibba yeitire yenkani; tigwalibba musango gwaiswe. Neye nabuli eyalibba na iwe omu nyumba, akabbikabbi ni kamutuukaku, gwalibba musango gwaiswe. 
Neye singa waliroopa ebituli kukola, ekirayiro ekyo ekyotulayirisirye kyalibba tikitusiba.” 
OLakabbu nʼabairamu ati, “Njikiriirye. Oleke kibbe ngʼowemukobere.” Kale nʼabaseebula era ni basimbuka. Nʼasiba akaguwa kadi akatukuliki omu dinisa. 
Abakeeti owebasimbukire baabire omu nsozisozi, ni babba eeyo enaku isatu, paka badi ababayiiga owebabanoonerye omu luguudo wonawona ni bakanga nga babakaire. 
Awo abasaiza abo ababiri ni baniinuka omu nsozisozi ni bayambuka oYoludaani, ni bakanga eeri oYoswa omutaaane wa Nuuni, ni bamukobera byonabyona ebyabatuukireku. 
Ni bakoba oYoswa bati, “Dala oMusengwa ekyalo kidi kyonakyona akituwaire; abantu bonabona entiisya yabakwaite oku lwaiswe.”
