Debola wādi na musapu wa Balaka utamba kudi Yehova wa amba: ‘Sela bana-balume 10 000, wende ukasambakane kibumbo kya divita kya Yabine ku kamunonga ka Kishone. Ku kano kamunonga usa kunekenya’ko Shisela, mukatampe wa kibumbo kya divita kya Yabine.’ Balaka wāsapwila Debola amba: ‘Nsa kwenda’ko, inoko poso’nka wende nami.’ Debola nandi amba: ‘Nsa kwenda nobe. Ino yuka’mba ke abepo usa kwipaya Shisela. Yehova wanena’mba, i mwana-mukaji umo usa kumwipaya.’

Debola wākanda na Balaka ne kibumbo kyandi kya divita ku lūlu lwa Tabola kwiteakanya mwanda wa kukalwa. Shisela pa kwivwana uno mwanda, wākongakanya makalo andi a divita ne basola munshi mwa musanza.

Balaka ne basola bandi bānekenye kibumbo kya divita kya Shisela, inoko Shisela mwine wānyema! Wānyemēne kulampe wākefya mu pema wa mwana-mukaji umo witwa bu Yaile. Yaile wāmupa mabele a kutoma, kupwa wāmupūta bulangetyi. Uno wa bulwi wādi mukōke wāpona mu tulo. Ebiya Yaile wākalabila bityebitye kwadi, wāmupopa kikomo kya pema ku mutwe. Wāfwa.

Balaka wāiya kukimba Shisela. Yaile wātamba panja pa pema wandi, wamwita amba: ‘Twela muno. Nsa kukulombola muntu okimba’ye.’ Balaka pa kutwela wāmona Shisela ulēle mufwe. Balaka ne Debola bātendele Yehova mu lwimbo pa kupa kwaāpele bene Isalela bushindañani pa balwana nabo. Mu myaka 40 yālondele’po, Isalela wādi mu ndoe.
