1 Arimeelheke Naehudi, attu o Uisraeli ahowonya tho umihoolho wa Apwiiya Nlhuku. 2 Paahi Apwiiya Nlhuku nkaahiya wiira akottolhiye ni Nayabini, amwene o Ukanaani, aakhalha iwani yo Uhazori. Nholhelhi o miphingo chaya cha manyaasikari ari Nasisera, ntu o Uharosheth Hagoimu. 3 Amwene Nayabini ari ni nkukuta cho ikhoto cho upurulhiya ni ashinama imia tisa. Yayo ahaatawara attu o Uisraeli wo waamereriha chinene, wo iyaakha makhumi meelhi. Ni attu o Uisraeli aholhelha Apwiiya Nlhuku wiira oonelhe ikiriri.

4 Paahi yeyo ikatema iyo ahokhalha namilhohi nthiyana ehaniya Debora, ahanu a Nalapidothi. Yayo Nadebora ayo ari ntu o waamulha milhatu a attu o Uisraeli. 5 Nadebora ari ni aavara ntheko aya wo ukhalha vantendeni, ntende waari variyari iwani yo Uraama ni iwani yo Ubetheli, wi ilhapo yo miako cho Efraimu. Attu o Uisraeli ahowaacha vavawo wiira aamulhelhe milhatu chaya. 6 Nihuku nimoka Nadebora aheehana Nabaraka anaaya Naabinoamu o Ukedeshi ilhapo yo Unaftali. Vaawiilhe aya, nkayeerelha wiira, "Apwiiya Nlhuku, Nlhuku o Uisraeli, anouhulhelhani wiira, ‘Nrweeke mwaathothokanihe attu inyu umwaakoni Utabori, mwaathanlheke attu elufu khumi ukhuma makosho a Nanaftali ni Nazabuloni. 7 Ni mii kinowaahachulhacha Nasisera, nholhelhi o manyaasikari a Nayabini, wiira aweeke ni nkukuta chaya aatakane ikhoto ni inyu mwaatti, umwoolhokoni Kishoni, ni inyu mmweeke mwaakottolha.’ "

8 Nabarak nkayaakhulha Nadebora wo wiira, "Mwakittukanaka, kinoorwaa, nansho mwaahikittukaneke, akinorwaa."

9 Paahi Nadebora nkayaakulha wo wiira, "Eiyo kinorwaa vamoka ni inyuva, nansho khannothimichiya vakittu variwoothe, ukhalhawaya Apwiiya Nlhuku, anommaha nthiyana machiri o waakottolha Nasisera." paahi Nadebora nkayaatwarana ni Nabarak urwaa Ukadeshi. 10 Nabaraka nkayeehana makosho a Nanaftali ni Nazabuloni wowo Ukedeshi uwo, ni attu maelufu khumi ahotwaracha. Nadebora nkayarwaa vamoka ni ayo.

11 Yeyo ikatema iyo, Naheberi, o ukhuma ilhapo yo Ukeni, ari aneemeshilhe nihema naya utayi, uri mwiri muulhupalhe wo Uzananimu, vakhiviru ni Ukedeshi, anekuminhe munlhokoni mwa Aakeni nanaya, achishana a Nahobabu, alhamu aya ashinna Musa.

12 Attu nkayeerelha Nasisera wiira Nabaraki anaaya Naabinoamu ahowelha umwaakoni Utabori, 13 ahothukumana miphingo chonkhaye vamoka ni nkukuta chaya imia tisa cho yuuma, nkayaathama Uharosheth Hagoimu, nkayaarwa umwoolhokoni Kishoni.

14 Nadebora nkayeerelha Nabaraka wiira, "Munkweke! Lhelho phi nihuku Apwiiya Nlhuku vanonivaha aya machiri o waakottolha Nasisera. Apwiiya Nlhuku anoorwa umihoolho winyu." Paahi Nabaraka ahokhuruwa umwaakoni Utabori, aholhelhaka attu aya maelufu khumi. 15 Nabaraka vaakelhenlhe aya ni mphingo aya, Apwiiya Nlhuku ahaatutuwanyiha Nasisera ni miphingo chaya chonkhaye. Paahi Nasisera nkayaakhuruwa munkukutani mwaya, nkayaattawa wo mweto. 16 Nansho Nabaraka ni ayo nkayaatwara miphingo chiyo wo nkukuta mpaka Uharosheth Hagoimu ni weeva manyaasikari a Nasisera onkhaye wo waakhapakacha ni maphanga, wo uhinhalhiha ata ntu mmoka.

17 Nansho Nasisera aattawilhe wo mweto mpaka unihemani wa Nayaeli, ahanu a Naheberi, ntu o ilhapo yo Ukeni. Aapannge chiicho ukhalhawaya waari wiiwananiyaka wo mpuha munlhokoni mwa amwene Nayabini o Uhazori, ni manyaalhoko a Naheberi. 18 Nayaeli ahokhuma ni weekamelhani Nasisera, nkayeerelha wiira, "Pwiiya, kharibu uwannyaka, ni wala nhoove." Paahi nkaakelha unihemani mwaya, nkayaakhunelha niblangeti. 19 Nasisera nkayeerelha Nayaeli wiira, "Chonte, nkivahe maashi vakani kiwurie, ukhalhawaya kirini nttona." Nayaeli nkayaavaha Nasisera mapelhe baada yo maashi, Yamalheke nkayaakhunelha tho. 20 Nasisera nkeera, "Mweemelheke vankhorani wo nihema vawo. Ntu riyoothe awaaka ukohani wiira ahaawo ntu riyoothe va, mwiireke wiira khaawo."

21 Ukhalhawaya Nasisera ari anoochelhe chinene, ahorupa ikhove. Vavawo, Nayaeli, ahanu a Naheberi, ahokusha ikhomo yo nihema ni inuto. Nkayaarwaa nrimanrima vakani vakani nkayaakomelhelha ikhomo yo nihema iyo vayuchi wa Nasisera, nkayaaperetta mpaka uttayani, ni Nasisera nkayaakhwa vavawo. 22 Ni Nabaraka vaari aya aatwarelhelhaka Nasisera, Nayaeli ahokhuma vathe ni weekamelhani, nkayeerelha wiira, "Nkawaani kuwoniheni ntu nnomwavia inyu." Paahi Nabaraki ahokelha nnihemani mu Nayaeli ni woona Nasisera anarumpe vathi, ni ikhomo yo nihema inakhomelhiye vayuchi waya.

23 Paahi etu nenno nihuku nno Nlhuku nkaavahera attu o Uisraeli waakottolha amwene Nayabini o Ukanaani 24 Attu o Uisraeli nkayaathepacha waakukutta ni waakottolha amwene Nayabini, o Ukanaani, mpaka vaarimelhinhe aya.
