Mu mwaka ghwakasatu ghwa Ku̱u̱lo mukama wa Paasiya, Dhaneeli̱ oghu baaghilaghamu Bbeli̱tesaja aabonekeluwa. Butumuwa bwasa ewaa Dhaneeli̱ ku̱lu̱gha ewaa Luhanga kandi bwabonekela mu kubonekeluwa. Butumuwa obu bukaba buli bwamajima kandi bwabu̱ghaghʼo bulemo bwamaani̱. 
Bwile obu si̱ye Dhaneeli̱ neeghunga haabwa wi̱i̱ki̱ esatu. 
Tanaaliiye byokuliya bisemeeye, nyama, kedha kunuwa vi̱i̱ni̱ kedha kwesiigha bigita haabwa wi̱i̱ki̱ esatu esi. 
Haa kilo kya maku̱mi̱ abili na bbinaa kya kweli̱ kwʼoku̱du̱bha, nkaba neemiliiye haakpengbu̱ ya maasi ghaanamu̱li̱to Ti̱gu̱li̱i̱si̱. 
Obu naamu̱ki̱i̱ye maaso, naabona musaasa alu̱wete lughoye lusemeeye lunjelu kandi eebohi̱ye mu̱ci̱pi̱ ghwa feeja esemeeye mu mi̱ghelu̱. 
Mubili ghuwe ghukaba ghu̱su̱si̱ye ebaale lya muhendo bakughilaghamu bbelu̱lo, haali̱i̱so yee aabbyokelelagha, maaso ghe ghaabbebbeniyagha nga bilimi bya mulilo, mikono yee na maghulu bikaba bi̱su̱si̱ye kyoma kyokeei̱ye bakughilaghamu bbu̱looji̱ kandi elaka liye likaba lili nga lya bantu bakaniiye kimui. 
Si̱ye nenkaha, Dhaneeli̱, ni̱i̱si̱ye nkabona kintu eki mu kubonekeluwa oku, basaasa abaabaagha nanje tabaakiboone. Bhaatu ebo boobahila kimui, baali̱gi̱ta kandi beebi̱sa. 
Ni̱i̱si̱ye nenkaha nkati̱ghalʼo kubona kubonekeluwa kwamaani̱ oku. Maani̱ ghampuwa, haali̱i̱so yanje aahinduka kandi muntu tangu̱gu̱bhi̱ye kuumaniilila, naabeela kimui muceke. 
Niibuwo naaghu̱u̱ye musaasa oghu naabu̱gha, obu naaghu̱u̱ye elaka liye, neegenga kandi naasalikilʼo haali̱i̱so yanje haaku̱ma hansi. 
Mukono ghwanku̱mʼo, ghwankoonela ku̱nji̱mu̱ki̱ya niinatukumila hambali nteei̱ye kandi mikono yanje enaku̱mi̱ye hansi. 
Musaasa oghu aaghila ati, “Dhaneeli̱, Luhanga aku̱ku̱ndi̱ye kwonini, nahabweki otegheeleli̱ye bhyani ebi ndimakughambila. Oomuke nanga bantu̱mi̱ye ewaawe.” Obu angambiiye eki, naamuka niinatukumila. 
Du̱mbi̱ angila ati, “Dhaneeli̱ oleke kwobaha. Kilo kyʼoku̱du̱bha eki waatandi̱ki̱ye kusaba kuba na kwetegheeleli̱ya kandi kuba mu̱dhooti̱ mu maaso ghaa Luhanga waawe, kusaba kwawe baaku̱u̱ghu̱u̱ye mu eghulu kandi naasi̱ye kukuukamu nsaala yaawe. 
Mukulu wa bakama baa Paasiya aalwana nanje haabwa bilo maku̱mi̱ abili na kimui. Bhaatu Mikai̱li̱, oghu ali omui haa baheeleli̱ya bakulu baa Luhanga baamaani̱, aasa kunkoonela. Naamu̱ti̱ghayo ali na mutabani̱ wa mukama wa Paasiya. 
Nahabweki naasi̱ye kukusoboolola ebikubʼo bantu baawe mu bwile obuliisa, nanga kubonekeluwa oku kukwete ku̱bu̱ghʼo ebikubʼo mu bwile obuliisa.” 
Obu malai̱ka oghu aanabu̱ghagha nanje bighambo ebi, naalola hansi kandi naasaaghuwa ku̱bu̱gha kantu. 
Du̱mbi̱ malai̱ka oghu akaba asu̱si̱ye musaasa aananula mukono ghuwe kandi aaku̱ma haa mi̱nu̱wa, naatandika ku̱bu̱gha na kanu̱wa kanje. Naaghila musaasa oghu eemiliiye mu maaso ghanje nti, “Ai̱ mukama wanje, kubonekeluwa kuni kwaleki̱ye maani̱ ghampuwa kandi tankugubha kuleka kutukumila. 
Mukama, si̱ye mu̱heeleli̱ya waawe nkugubha nti̱ya ku̱bu̱gha naawe? Tandi na maani̱ kandi tankugubha kuhuumula kusemeeye.” 
Malai̱ka oghu akaba asu̱si̱ye nga musaasa aatodha anku̱mʼo mulundi ghwakabili, du̱mbi̱ maani̱ ghankuukamu. 
Angila ati, “Mpempa yonkaha! Oleke kwobaha. Luhanga aku̱ku̱ndi̱ye kwonini, ogume kandi obe wamaani̱!” Obu abu̱ghi̱ye nanje, maani̱ ghankuukamu kandi naaghila nti, “Wai̱tu̱, obu̱ghe nanje, nanga wanku̱u̱ki̱i̱yemu maani̱.” 
Nahabweki malai̱ka oghu aaghila ati, “Omani̱ye ekyaleki̱ye naasa ewaawe? Nkukuukayo bwangu kulwana na mukulu wa bakama baa Paasiya. Nkaakughenda, mukulu wa bakama baa Bu̱gi̱li̱ki̱ akwisa. 
Bhaatu nkukughambila ebihandi̱i̱ku̱u̱we mu kitabo kya majima. Taaliyo nʼomui oghu akunkoonelagha kulwana na bakulu baa bakama aba, kuuyʼo Mikai̱li̱, mukulu wa baamalai̱ka oghu akulindagha bantu baawe.
