(2 Baami 20.12-19)
Ku yikyo kyanya, mwami Merodaaki-Baladani, mugala mwami Baladani weꞌBabeeri, anayuvwa ngiisi kwo Hezekiya ashubi lwaziri. Kyanatuma agamúlungikira amaruba kuguma noꞌlutengu. Yabo ábakatumwa, ikyanya bakahika, Hezekiya anabayegereza, anabuli bayereka ibindu byoshi mu bihinda byage, ngeꞌharija, neꞌnooro, neꞌndungo zeꞌbyokulya, naꞌmavuta goꞌmuhongolo mwija, neꞌsiribo zaage, neꞌbindi byoshi íbyâli bisingule mu bihinda byage. Emwe! Ndaakyo kindu kyo atakabayereka, kiba mu kajumiro, kandi iri mu kihugo kyage kyoshi.
Ha nyuma, ulya Hezekiya, umuleevi Hisaaya anamúgendera, anamúbuuza: «Yaba bandu, balyoka hayi? Na kuti kwo badeta?» Hezekiya, ti: «Balyosiri mu mahanga geꞌBabeeri.» Uyo Hisaaya, anashubi múbuuza: «Biki byo babonaga mu nyumba yawe?» Hezekiya, ti: «Babona byoshi íbiri mwo. Kiri na mu bihinda byani, ndaakyo kindu kyo ndabayereka.»
Hisaaya, ti: «Yuvwagwa igambo lya Nahano: Mu siku ízigayija, yabo Bababeeri bagashaaza byoshi íbiri mu nyumba yawe, kiri neꞌbindu byoshi byo bashokuluza baawe bakakuumania, banabitwale imwabo. Ndaakyo kindu íkigasigala. Kwokwo, kwo Nahano adesiri. Na kwakundi, mu baana baawe, baguma bagatwalwa, banagendi ba batungule mu kajumiro ka mwami weꞌBabeeri.*»
Hezekiya anashuvya: «Yago magambo ga Nahano, gali miija.» Na íbitumiri akadeta kwokwo, bwo akayitoneesa, ti: «Mu burambe bwani bwoshi, hagaaba umutuula noꞌbutoge.»
