[2] Wa humman raakho fi kulla mamlakat Yahuuza wa lammo al-Laawiyiin min kulla hillaal balad Yahuuza wa chuyuukh khuchuum buyuut Bani Israaʼiil. Wa kulluhum jo Madiinat al-Khudus sawa.
[3] Wa kulla l-mujtamaʼ lammo wa sawwo muʼaahada maʼa l-malik fi beet Allah. Wa Yahuuyadaʼ gaal leehum : «Daahu Yuwaach wileed al-malik ! Waajib hu bas yabga malik wa da yihaggig al-kalaam al-Allah gaalah al-bukhuss zurriiyit Dawuud.

[6] Wa ma tikhallu naadum yadkhul fi beet Allah illa rujaal al-diin wa l-Laawiyiin al-gaaʼidiin yakhdumu. Humman bas yadkhulu achaan humman mukhassasiin. Wa kulla l-chaʼab yabgo haraasa le yahfado beet Allah.
[7] Wa l-Laawiyiin yihawwugu al-malik min kulli jiihe wa ayyi waahid be silaahah fi iidah. Wa ayyi naadum al-yidoor yadkhul fi lubb beet Allah da, yaktuluuh. Wa l-Laawiyiin yamchu maʼa l-malik fi ayyi bakaan al-yamchi foogah.»
[8] Wa khalaas, al-Laawiyiin wa kulla naas mamlakat Yahuuza sawwo kulla cheyy al-amaraahum beyah raajil al-diin Yahuuyadaʼ. Wa ayyi kabiir lamma naasah, al-naas al-kammalo khidmithum fi yoom al-sabt wa l-naas al-yichiilu khidmithum fi yoom al-sabt kula. Yahuuyadaʼ raajil al-diin ma anta yoom hana jumma le ayyi naadum min al-majmuuʼaat dool.
[9] Wa Yahuuyadaʼ anta le khuyyaad al-miyaat al-huraab wa l-darag dugaag wa kubaar hana l-malik Dawuud al-gaaʼidiin fi beet Allah.

Di muʼaamara !»
[14] Wa raajil al-diin Yahuuyadaʼ naada khuyyaad al-miyaat al-mukallafiin be l-askar wa gaal leehum : «Amurguuha barra min sufuufku. Wa ayyi naadum al-yitaabiʼha, aktuluuh be l-seef.» Achaan hu ma dawwar yaktuluuha fi beet Allah.
[15] Wa humman karabooha wa maragooha. Wa wakit wassalo ale gasir al-malik be baab Dakhuul al-Kheel, khalaas katalooha fi l-bakaan da.
