Bwile obu, Yu̱da aalu̱ghʼo baghenji̱ be, aaghenda kuukala na musaasa wa mu ntu̱la ya Adulaamu oghu baaghilaghamu Hiila.

Bhaatu Eli̱, mu̱li̱ghaaso ghwa Yu̱da, akaba ali mu̱si̱i̱si̱ mu maaso ghaa Mukama, du̱mbi̱ Mukama aamwita. 
Du̱mbi̱ Yu̱da aaghila mutabani̱ wee Onani ati, “Oghende olangaale na mukaa wanjoko waawe, omuswele niikuwo obyalile wanjoko waawe baana.”

Haanu̱ma ya bwile bukani̱ye, mukaa Yu̱da, muhala wa Suha, aaku̱wa. Obu Yu̱da aamali̱ye kunaaba mukali̱ wee oghu, aaghenda na bhootu̱ siye Hiila wa mu ntu̱la ya Adulaamu, mu kyalo kya Temina hambali basaasa abaaghembagha ntaama siye byoha baakalagha. 
Obu Tamaali̱ aaghu̱u̱ye ngoku esebyala wee Yu̱da alimaghenda mu kyalo kya Temina kughemba ntaama siye byoha, 
eetu̱u̱bbu̱lamu ngoye sya bu̱kwi̱si̱ya esi aakalagha alu̱wete. Du̱mbi̱ aalu̱wala ngoye sinji, aatodha eeswi̱ki̱li̱la lunji, aasitama mu elembo lya tau̱ni̱ ya Enai̱mu̱ mu kihanda ekyaghendagha mu kyalo kya Temina. Akakola eki haanu̱ma ya kubona ati Seela oghu baamulaghi̱i̱sani̱i̱ye kumuswela aamali̱ye kukula, bhaatu tabakaghi̱li̱ye bati amuswele. 
Obu Yu̱da aamuboone, aamanya ati ni malaaya haabwa kweswi̱ki̱la haali̱i̱so. 
Haabwa kutamanya ngoku ali mugholi wee, aaghenda hambali aabaagha ali mu maakpengbu̱ ghaa luguudhe, aamughila ati, “Nkubbala kulangaala naawe.” Mugholi wee aamukuukamu ati, “Buuye nuuwalangaaye nanje, mbiki okumpa?” 
Yu̱da aamughila ati, “Nkukuha kyana kya mbu̱li̱ ku̱lu̱gha mu etungo lyanje.” Mugholi wee aamukuukamu ati, “Buuye ni musimbo ki oku̱nti̱ghi̱la ku̱hi̱ki̱ya oleeti̱ye mbu̱li̱ eghi?” 
Aamukuukamu ati, “Buuye nku̱ti̱ghi̱le musimbo ki?” Tamaali̱ aamukuukamu ati, “Onti̱ghile mpete eghi eliyo li̱i̱na lyawe, na kaghuwo kaayo akali mu bikiya byawe, hamui na mwi̱gho okwete mu ngalo oghu.” Yu̱da aasi̱i̱ma kumuha biyo, du̱mbi̱ aalangaala naye, du̱mbi̱ mukali̱ oghu aaku̱li̱ya. 
Obu mukali̱ oghu aalu̱ghi̱ye haala, eetu̱bbu̱la ngoye esi aabaagha alu̱wete, aatodha aalu̱wala ngoye sya bu̱kwi̱si̱ya. 
Du̱mbi̱ Yu̱da aatuma bhootu̱ siye Hiila kutwalila mukali̱ oghu mbu̱li̱ eghi baalaghaane niikuwo aayeyo musimbo oghu aati̱ghi̱yeyo. Bhaatu Hiila obu aaki̱dhi̱yeyo, atasangayo mukali̱ oghu. 
Du̱mbi̱ aabu̱u̱li̱ya bantu abaakalaghʼo ati, “Malaaya oghu akuukalagha haa elembo lya tau̱ni̱ ya Enai̱mu̱ ali haa?” Baamukuukamu bati, “Hani taaliyo malaaya nʼomui bbaa.” 
Du̱mbi̱ Hiila aakuukayo, aaghila Yu̱da ati, “Tanaamusangi̱yʼo, kuuyʼo naasangi̱yʼo bantu abakuukalaghʼo, bangila bati taaliyo malaaya weena oghu aakuukalaghʼo bbaa.” 
Du̱mbi̱ Yu̱da aaghila ati, “Oleke aakale na bintu ebi naamu̱ti̱ghi̱i̱ye, nanga bantu mbaakimani̱ye, batusekeelela. Olole naali nku̱tu̱mi̱ye kumusasula, bhaatu tawamusangi̱yʼo.” 
Haanu̱ma ya meeli̱ asatu, muntu aaghambila Yu̱da ati, “Mugholi waawe Tamaali̱ aabaaye malaaya kandi aku̱li̱i̱ye.” Yu̱da aaghila ati, “Mumuleete, bamwoki̱ye aku̱we.” 
Obu banamutwalagha, aatu̱mi̱i̱si̱ya makulu ewaa esebyala wee naaghila ati, “Mukama wa bintu bini ebi ndi nabiyo, niiye akampa etundu lini.” Aatodha aaghila ati, “Olole kandi omaaniilile mpete eghi na kaghuwo kaayo na mwi̱gho ni bintu bya ani̱?” 
Yu̱da aamaniilila bintu ebi, du̱mbi̱ aaghila ati, “Mukali̱ oghu aabu̱ghi̱ye majima kandi eki aakoli̱ye ki̱hi̱ki̱ye. Nanga nkeelaghi̱i̱sani̱ya kumuha mutabani̱ wanje Seela kumuswela, bhaatu ntaamuha mukali̱ oghu kumuswela.” Du̱mbi̱ Yu̱da taatodhi̱ye alangaala naye bbaa. 
Obu bwile buwe bwa ku̱byala bwahi̱ki̱ye, aabyala balongo. 
Obu aatandi̱ki̱ye kulumuwa, mwana omui aatwesi̱yayo mukono ghumui, du̱mbi̱ mukali̱ oghu aamu̱byali̱i̱si̱yagha aamuboha kahu̱u̱ji̱ kaamutuku haa mukono, naaghila ati, “Oni niiye aadu̱bhi̱ye ku̱byaluwa.” 
Bhaatu obu mwana oni aatodhi̱ye ku̱ku̱u̱ki̱yayo mukono ghuwe, waani̱na wee aabyaluwa, du̱mbi̱ mukali̱ oghu ababyali̱i̱si̱yagha aaghila ati, “Olole ngoku mwetambu̱lani̱i̱yemu.” Du̱mbi̱ mwana oghu baamuluka li̱i̱na Peleeji̱. 
Na waani̱na wee oghu baabohi̱ye kahu̱u̱ji̱ kaamutuku naye aabyaluwa, du̱mbi̱ baamuluka li̱i̱na bati niiye Jeela.
