YILI yisigele yaka yejinji Ayisalayeli mkanajinjile m’cilambo ca Kanani, Yehofa ŵaŵecete kuti cilamboci cacicipeleka kwa yisukulu ya Abulahamu. Sambano Ayisalayeliŵa paŵaliji asigele panandi kwinjila m’Cilambo Cacilanga, Yoswa ni juŵaliji jwakwalongolela.

Nambo mkanajinjile m’cilambomo, Yoswa ŵatumisye ŵakusonda ŵaŵili ŵaŵajile kwicila mu msinda wa Yeliko kwa jwamkongwe jwine lina lyakwe Lahabu. Jwamkongweju ŵapocele ŵakusondaŵa m’nyumba jakwe, soni ŵasisile, atamose kuti jwalakwe ŵamanyililaga kuti jemanjaji ŵaliji Ayisalayeli.

Asilikali ŵa Yoswa ŵawutucile mkatimo ni kuwujonanga msindawo, nambo ŵamkulupwisye Lahabu ni liŵasa lyakwe.

Nambo paŵawile Yoswa yimpepe ni acakulungwa acimjakwe, Ayisalayeli ŵamlesile Yehofa ni kutanda kutumicila milungu jaunami. Kwa yaka yakwana 300, ŵanduŵa nganapikanilaga malamusi ga Yehofa mwakulupicika. Mu yaka yeleyi, Yehofa ŵakundaga kuti acimmagongo mpela Afilisiti ŵalagasyeje Ayisalayeli.
