Ndiyo maana abhantu bhahapenta amahali pala Mahane Dani hata ilelo; hu maghalibi yi Kiriath yearimu. ¹³ Bhahasogola uho nabhale hunsi yi gamba lya Efraimu, bhahafiha hu nyumba ya Mika. ¹⁴ Alafu abhantu bhasanu bhabhahabhalile ahwenye insi iya Laisha bhahabhawuozya abhantu bhao, "Je, mumenye aje hu nyumba ezi huli efodi, amangolobhe gi nyumba isanamu zizipuzilwe ni sanamu zijela? Amula eshi lyuzawombe." ¹⁵ Basi bhahawela uho, bhahafiha hu nyumba ya Mlawi, hu nyumba ya Mika; bhahabhalamha. ¹⁶ Abhana bha Dani mia sita bhi silaha ziwo, bhahemelela hwa hwinjilile huniango. ¹⁷ Bhala abhantu bhasanu bhabhahabhalile ajendele insi bhahabhala uho, bhahenge isanamu zyapunze efodi, na mangolobhe gi nyumba, ni sanamu zimajela wakati uputi ayemeleye hwa hwiinjilile hu niango nabhahome mia sita wi silaha ziwo. ¹⁸ Lwabhahinjilaga hu nyumba ya Mika nahweje isanamu zyapunez, efodi, amangolobhe gi nyumba ni sanamu zimajela, uputi ahayanga, "muombashi?" ¹⁹ Bhahamuozya, "Puma!

Ahega efodi, amangolobhe gi nyumba, ni sanamu zya punze, ahabhala peka na bhantu ewo. ²¹ Basi bhahagaluha bhahabhala. Abhana abhadodo bhahabhabheha hwilongolela lyao, peka ni ng'ombe ni mali zyao. ²² Lwabhabha patali ni nyumba ya Mika, abhantu bhabhahali mhanti yi nyumba yihali pepe ni nyumba ya Mika bhahetelwe, nope bhahafiha hwa Bhadani. ²³ Bhahabhakhomela ishongo, nope bhahagaluha, bhahamuozya uMika, "Shonu mwenzele peka? ²⁴ Ahayanga, "amwe mwibhile amangolobhe gingagombile, mumwejile uputi wane, alafu msogoye. Je, indi ni yenu tena? Ubhajiye humbozelezye henu hahulavya?" ²⁵ 'Abhantu bhahwa Dani bhahamuozya," Usahaleshe tumvye shoshonti shiyanga, abhatu bhilyoyo sana bhanza hubhakhome awe ni familia yaho bhanzahubhabude." ²⁶ Ndipo abhantu wa hwa Dani bhahabhala uMika lwawalola aje bhahali ni ngovu sana pamwanya yakwe, ahagaluha nawele hu khaya yakwe. ²⁷ Abhantu bha Dani bhahenga ahantu hawombile uMika peka nuputi wakwe, bhahafiha hu Laisha, hwa bhantu bhasagabhalaga bhahabhabuda nwipanga napembe umji ugwo. ²⁸ Saga pahali umuntu wahuwokole kwa sababu pahali patali afume hu Sidoni, nasanga bhahakondene nu muntu wowonti. Pahali pikhombe lili karibu ni Beth Rehobu. Abhadani bhahazenga umuji nakhale uho. ²⁹ Bhahweta itawa lyakwe Dani, itawa lya bhababa wakwe Dani, yahali peka na bhana bha Israeli. Lakini itawa ilya hwande limji lyahali Laisha. ³⁰ Abhantu bha Dani bhahazenga isanamu zya punze bhewo. Nope uYonathani, umwana wa Gershomu, umwana wa Musa, umwene na bhana wakwe, bhali bhaputi bhi kabila lya Bhadani mpaka isiku lya same insi. ³¹ Basi bhahaputa isanamu ya punze iya Mika yahagabheshele mnyumba ya Ngolobhe uho hu Shilo.
