15 Bakhala oonyana bakaSirayeli kuYehova; wabavelisela umsindisi onguEhude, unyana kaGera, umBhenjamin, umfo olinxele. Bathumela oonyana bakaSirayeli ngesandla sakhe umnikelo kuEglon, ukumkani wakwaMowabhi.
16 UEhude wazenzela ikrele elintlangothi mbini, liyikubhite* ubude balo, walinxiba phantsi kwengubo yakhe ethangéni lakhe lokunene.
17 Wawusondeza umnikelo kuEglon ukumkani wamaMowabhi: ke uEglon ebengumfo onengxeba.
18 Kwathi, akugqiba ukuwusondeza umnikelo, wabandulula abantu ababewuthwele umnikelo lowo.
19 Wabuya yena emifanekisweni eqingqiweyo eseGiligali, wathi, Ndinelizwi lasentsithelweni nawe, kumkani. Wathi, Yithini tu. Baphuma bemka kuye bonke ababemi ngakuye.
20 Weza uEhude kuye, ehleli egumbini eliphezulu elinempepho, elibe lilelakhe yedwa. Wathi uEhude, Ndinelizwi likaThixo eliza kuwe; wesuka esihlalweni.
21 UEhude wasolula isandla sakhe sokhohlo, walithabatha ikrele ethangéni lakhe lokunene, walifaka esiswini sakhe.
