Awo eizo amakeezikeezi oYerubba Bbaali, nga niiye oGidyoni, nʼabalwanibe bonabona, ni bakola enkambi okumpi nʼeiruba lyʼe Kalodi. Enkambi yʼaBamidiyaani yababbaireku mambuka omu kiinamo okumpi nʼakasozi oMoole. 
OMusengwa nʼakoba oGidyoni ati, “Abalwani abooli nabo babitiriri nze okubawa okuwangula aBamidiyaani. ABaisirairi okutaneekudumbaliryaku bati maani gaabwe niigo agabanunwire, 
atyanu olangirire omu bantu oti, ‘Nabuli atya era atukuta, azwe oku Lusozi oGireyaadi akange.’ ” Awo abalwani 22,000 ni bakangayo, ni basigalawo 10,000. 
Neye oMusengwa nʼakoba oGidyoni ati, “Abalwani bakaali babitiriri. Obaserengetye oku maizi, nabakulonderyamu eeyo. Oyo ogunakukoba nti ayaabe na iwe, yaaba. Era oyo ogunakoba nti tiyaaba na iwe, tiyaabe.” 
Kale oGidyoni nʼaserengetya abantu oku maizi. OMusengwa nʼamukoba ati, “Nabuli eyakomba amaizi nʼolulimirwe ooti mbwa, omwawule ku buli eyakoma amazwi okunywa amaizi.” 
Abasenere amaizi omu bigalabaayo byabwe ni bagakomba nʼolulumi, babbaire 300. Abandi bonabona ni bakoma mazwi okunywa amaizi. 
Awo oMusengwa nʼakoba oGidyoni ati, “Njaba kubanunula inywe nga nkolesya abasaiza abo 300 abakombere amaizi, era aBamidiyaani mbaweeyo omu bwezyebwo obawangule. Oleke abandi bonabona nabuli muntu akange e wuwe.” 
Kale oGidyoni nʼasigalya abalwanibe abo 300 era aBaisirairi badi abandi bonabona nʼabatoolaku ebyokukolesya byonabyona nʼamakondeere, nʼabasindika bakange e waabwe. Atyanu enkambi yʼaBamidiyaani yabbaire ansi waaku nʼe giyabbaire omu kiinamo. 
Ekiire ekyo, oMusengwa nʼakoba oGidyoni ati, “Osetuke, olumbe enkambi olwʼokubba ngiwaireyo omu bwezyebwo okugiwangula. 
Neye owoobba ngʼotya okulumba, oserengeteyo oku nkambi nʼomuweereryawo oPula. 
Era oyaba okuwulira ebibatumula, kaisi awo osune amaani okulumba enkambi eyo.” Awo oGidyoni nʼaserengeta nʼayaba nʼomuweereryawe oPula okumpi kumpi nʼenkambi eyʼomulabe. 
ABamidiyaani nʼaBamereki nʼabatyami abʼe Buzwaisana bonabona, babbaire bakwalaime omu kiinamo ooti nzige nʼengamira gyabwe nga tigibalika ooti musenye gwʼoku nyanza. 
OGidyoni oweyatuukire eeyo, nʼawulira omusaiza ngʼalonserya omwinaye ekirooto, ngʼamukoba ati, “Nalootere omugaati ogubasumbire omu busye bwa bbaale, nga guyiringita omu nkambi yʼaBamidiyaani, ni gutuuka oku weema, ni gugikubba nʼegwa, ni yeefuula, nʼeweera okwitakali.” 
Omwinaye nʼamwiramu ati, “Eyo mpiima ya Gidyoni, omutaane wa Yowaasi, oMwisirairi! Tikitegeeza kintu kindi! OKibbumba awaireyo aBamidiyaani nʼamaje gaabwe gonagona omu bwezye bwa Gidyoni okubawangula.” 
OGidyoni oweyawuliire ekirooto kya musaiza nʼamakulu gaakyo, nʼasinza oKibbumba, nʼakanga omu nkambi yʼaBaisirairi, nʼabakoba ati, “Musetuke! OMusengwa awaireyo amaje gʼaBamidiyaani omu bwezye bwanywe mubawangule.” 
Abasaizabe 300 nʼabagabulamu ebibinja bisatu. Nabuli musaiza nʼamukwatisya ekondeere nʼensaka erimu ekibakolesya okumoleka. 
Nʼabakoba ati, “Owetwatuuka okumpi kumpi nʼenkambi, ekinakola nywena kimwakola. 
Nze nʼabo bonabona abali na nze owetwafuwa amakondeere gaiswe, kaisi nywena abandi omwabba mweruguulirirye enkambi yonayona, ni mufuwa aganywe nga muceera muti, ‘Okulwa Musengwa nʼokulwa Gidyoni!’ ” 
Ngʼobwire bubulaku katono okutuuka omu kiire aakati, era ngʼaBamidiyaani bankuzwa okucuusa abakuumi, oGidyoni nʼabalwanibe 100 abeyabbaire nabo, ni batuuka okumpi kumpi nʼenkambi, ni bafuwa amakondeere gaabwe, ni baata ensaka egibabbaire bakwaite. 
Kaisi awo ebibinja byonabyona ebisatu ni bifuwa amakondeere gaabwe era ni byata ensaka egibabbaire nagyo. Bakwaite ebimoleka omu ngalo engooda, nʼamakondeere omu ndiiro, ni baceera bati, “Empiima ya Musengwa era eya Gidyoni!” 
Ni bayemerera nabuli moiza omu kifookye okweruguulirya enkambi. Amaje gonagona agʼaBamidiyaani ni gairuka nga gakuukulya olwʼekiwuubiryo. 
Abalwani ba Gidyoni badi 300 owebafuwire amakondeere gaabwe, oMusengwa nʼaleetera amaje gʼaBamidiyaani okulumbangana bonka na bonka, nabuli moiza ngʼalwanisya omwinaye nʼempiimaye. Ni bavulumuka okutuuka e Bbesi Siita, okulungama e Zerera, okutuuka oku nsalo nʼAbberi Mekola, okumpi nʼe Tabbasi. 
OGidyoni nʼatumisya abalwani okuzwa omu kika kya Nafutaali, nʼekyʼAseri, nʼekya Manase kyonakyona okwiza okubeegaitaku, omu kulukutya aBamidiyaani. 
OGidyoni nʼatuma abakwenda omu kyalo kyʼEfulaimu ekyʼensozisozi kyonakyona, ngʼabakoba ati, “Mwikirire twabe tulwanisye aBamidiyaani. Muzige oku byambu byʼemiga okwabira nakimo e Bbesi Bbala nʼebyʼoku mwiga oYoludaani. “Kale abalwani bonabona abʼEfulaimu ni beekumbaania ni baziga ebyambu byʼemiga okwabira nakimo e Bbesi Bbala nʼebyʼoku Yoludaani.” 
Ni bakwata abaduumiri Bamidiyaani ababiri Olebbu nʼoZeebbu, ni baitira Olebbu okwibbaale Olebbu, nʼoZeebbu ni bamwitira ku kikunyiro kya Zeebbu. Ni beeyongera okulukutya aBamidiyaani. Omutwe gwʼOlebbu nʼogwa Zeebbu ni bagitwalira oGidyoni oku lubba ludi olwʼomwiga oYoludaani.
