Na buno kanyagya, ojè ebw’ihêma lyâge, baguma muli rhwe bakulusâyo, banakuhise omu maboko gâge. 16 “Hano onahika embere zâge, omanye wankajà entemu oku murhima, ci onamubwîre emyanzi yâwe nk’okwo onadesire. Kandi anakujirira bwinjà”». 17 Banacîshoga balume igana, banacimulusa ye n’omwambalikazi, banacibahisa ah’ihêma lya Holoferno.
18 Abâli omu cirâlo boshi banashagamukira emunda ali, bulya omwanzi gw’oku anajagamwo gwamâhika omu ngasi ihêma.
