1 Baphinda oonyana bakaSirayeli benza ububi emehlweni kaYehova, akuba efile uEhude.
2 UYehova wathengisa ngabo, wabanikela esandleni sikaYabhin, ukumkani wakwaKanan, obephethe ubukumkani eHatsore, omthethelimkhosi ebenguSisera, ohleli eHarosheti yeentlanga.
3 Bakhala oonyana bakaSirayeli kuYehova; ngokuba ebeneenqwelo zesinyithi ezingamakhulu asithoba; wabaxina ke oonyana bakaSirayeli ngamandla iminyaka emashumi mabini.
4 Ke kaloku uDebhora, umprofetikazi, umkaLapidoti, ebewalawula amaSirayeli ngelo xesha.
