Bisisu 6

1 Isala: ili dunu ilia da Hina Godema bu wadela: le hamoi. Amaiba: le, E da Midia: ne dunu ilia Isala: ili dunu ode fesuale amoga wadela: lesima: ne logo doasi dagoi.

And the children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years.

2 Midia: ne fi dunu ilia gasa da Isala: ili fi ilia gasa baligi. Amaiba: le, Isala: ili fi dunu da magufu gelabo amola eno wamoaligisu sogebi agolo ganodini amoga wamoaligisu.

And the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel; and because of Midian the children of Israel made them the dens which are in the mountains, and the caves, and the strongholds.

3 Eso huluane, Isala: ili fi dunu da hawa: sagaloba, Midia: ne fi dunu, A:malege fi dunu amola eno hafoga: i sogega fi dunu da gilisili ilima doagala: le gegesu.

And so it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east; they came up against them;

4 Ilia da hou agoane hamosu. Ilia da Isala: ili soge amoga fisisu. Amalalu, ilia da Isala: ili dunu ilia sagai amo fana asili, gugaga asili, Ga: isa moilaiga doaga: su. Ilia da Isala: ili dunu ilia sibi, bulamagau amola dougi wamolalusu. Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da liligi hamedene esalusu.

and they encamped against them, and destroyed the produce of the earth, till thou come unto Gaza, and left no sustenance in Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass.

5 Midia: ne dunu bagohame ilia idi da danuba: wa: i defele ba: i, ilia da Isala: ili soge amoga ilia ohe fi oule misini, ilia abula diasu gagusu. Ilia amola ilia ga: mele da idimu hamedeiwane ba: i. Ilia da misini, soge huluane wadela: lesisu.

For they came up with their cattle and their tents, and they came in as locusts for multitude; both they and their camels were without number; and they came into the land to destroy it.

6 Isala: ili dunu da gasa hameba: le, ilia logo hedofamusa: gasa bagade ba: i.

And Israel was brought very low because of Midian; and the children of Israel cried unto the LORD.

7 Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da se nababeba: le, Hina Godema wele sia: i. Ilia da Gode Ea fidima: ne, Midia: ne dunu ilia logo hedofama: ne wele sia: i.

And it came to pass, when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD because of Midian,

8 Hina Gode da ilima balofede dunu asunasi. Balofede dunu e da ilima amane sia: i, “Isala: ili fi dunu ilia Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, ‘Dilia da hemonega Idibidi soge ganodini udigili lobo lala: gi agoai hawa: hamonanu. Be Na da dili fisili masa: ne gadili oule asi.

that the LORD sent a prophet unto the children of Israel; and he said unto them: 'Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: I brought you up from Egypt, and brought you forth out of the house of bondage;

9 Idibidi dunu da dili mae wadela: ma: ne, Na da dili gaga: i. Amola Ga: ina: ne sogega fi dunu da dili mae wadela: ma: ne, Na da dili gaga: i. Dilia da gusuba: i heda: loba, Na da amo dunu sefasisu. Amola Na da ilia soge amo dilima i dagoi.

and I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all that oppressed you, and drove them out from before you, and gave you their land.

10 Na da dilia Hina Godedafa, amo Na da dilima olelei. Amola dilia da A: moulaide dunu, (dilia wali ilia soge ganodini esala) amo ilia ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ilima mae sia: ne gadoma: ne, Na da sia: i dagoi. Be dilia da Na sia: hame nabi.’”

And I said unto you: I am the LORD your God; ye shall not fear the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell; but ye have not hearkened unto My voice.'

11 Amalalu, Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu da Ofala moilai bai bagadega misini, “ouge” ifa amo ea ougiha esalu. Amo ifa da Youa: se (A: ibisa fi dunu) amo ea ifa falifai galu. Youa: se egefe Gidione da Midia: ne dunu ilia ba: sa: besa: le, wamowane widi ha: i manu gisi amo afafama: ne, waini hano hamosu diasu amo ganodini widi gisi dabalebe ba: i.

And the angel of the LORD came, and sat under the terebinth which was in Ophrah, that belonged unto Joash the Abiezrite; and his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites.

12 Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu da ema misini, amane sia: i, “Gasa bagade nimi dunu! Hina Gode da ali esala.”

And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him, and said unto him: 'The LORD is with thee, thou mighty man of valour.'

13 Gidione da bu adole i, “Na da dima adole ba: mu gala. Hina Gode da nini esala, di da sia: sa. Amaiba: le amo se nabasu da abuliba: le ninima doaga: bela: ? Ninia ada ilia da Hina Gode Ea gasa bagade hou amo ninima olelei. E da Idibidi sogega nini fisili masa: ne gadili asunasi. Be wali Hina Gode da Midia: ne dunu nini wadela: lesima: ne, fisi dagoi.”

And Gideon said unto him: 'Oh, my lord, if the LORD be with us, why then is all this befallen us? and where are all His wondrous works which our fathers told us of, saying: Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt? but now the LORD hath cast us off, and delivered us into the hand of Midian.'

14 Amalalu, Hina Gode da Gidione ea hamoma: ne, ema amane olelei, “Dina: gasaga masa! Midia: ne dunu ilia Isala: ili fi mae wadela: ma: ne, di gaga: ma! Na Nisu fawane, da di asunasisa.”

And the LORD turned towards him, and said: 'Go in this thy might, and save Israel from the hand of Midian; have not I sent thee?'

15 Gidione da bu adole i, “Na da habodane Isala: ili fi gaga: ma: bela: ? Na sosogo fi da Mana: se fi amo ganodini gogaya: i gala. Amola na da na sosogo fi amo ganodini bodogidafa.”

And he said unto him: 'Oh, my lord, wherewith shall I save Israel? behold, my family is the poorest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house.'

16 Hina Gode da ema bu adole i, “Na da di fidimuba: le, di da amo hamomusa: dawa: mu. Di da Midia: ne dunu huluane hasalili dagomu.”

And the LORD said unto him: 'Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite the Midianites as one man.'

17 Gidione ea bu adole i, “Di da nama nodosa galea, na da Di dafawane Hina Gode esala, amo dawa: ma: ne, dawa: digisu hou amo nama olelema.

And he said unto him: 'If now I have found favour in thy sight, then show me a sign that it is thou that talkest with me.

18 Dafawane! Di da na mae yolesili ouleloma. Na da Dima gobele salasu ha: i manu gaguli misunu,” Gidione amane sia: i. Hina Gode Ea amane sia: i, “Na da di ouesalea, amogainini di bu misunu.”

Depart not hence, I pray thee, until I come unto thee, and bring forth my present, and lay it before thee.' And he said: 'I will tarry until thou come back.'

19 Amaiba: le, Gidione da hi diasua golili sa: ili, goudi mano sefena afae fane, falaua ea dioi defei da10gilougala: me amo lale, yisidi mae legele, agi ga: gi hamoi. E da goudi hu dabaga salawane, gugu gasa: le, ofodo ganodini salawane, gaguli, Hina Gode a: igele dunu “ouge” ifa baiya lelebe amogili iasi.

And Gideon went in, and made ready a kid, and unleavened cakes of an ephah of meal; the flesh he put in a basket, and he put the broth in a pot, and brought it out unto him under the terebinth, and presented it.

20 A: igele dunu da Gidionema amane sia: i, “Hu amola agi ga: gi lale, igi goe da: iya ligisili, amo da: iya gugu soga: sima.” Gidione da amo defele hamoi dagoi.

And the angel of God said unto him: 'Take the flesh and the unleavened cakes, and lay them upon this rock, and pour out the broth.' And he did so.

21 Amalalu, Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu da ea lobo ligiagale, galiamo ea lobo ganodini gagui, amo ea bidiga, e da hu amola agi ga: gi digilisi. Amalalu, lalu da igi da: iya wiligadole, hu amola agi ga: gi nene dagoi. Amalalu, a:igele dunu da asi, hame ba: i.

Then the angel of the LORD put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and there went up fire out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and the angel of the LORD departed out of his sight.

22 Amaiba: le, Gidione hamugini ba: loba, amo da Hina Gode ea a: igele dunu dawa: i galu. Amola e da bagadewane fofogadigili, beda: ne amane sia: i, “Hina Gode Bagadedafa! Na da Dia a: igele dunu ea odagi amola na odagi migadenei ba: i.”

And Gideon saw that he was the angel of the LORD; and Gideon said: 'Alas, O Lord GOD! forasmuch as I have seen the angel of the LORD face to face.'

23 Hina Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Asaboma! Mae beda: ma! Di da hame bogomu.”

And the LORD said unto him: 'Peace be unto thee; fear not; thou shalt not die.'

24 Gidione da Godema gobele salasu fafai (oloda) amogawi gagui. Amoga, e da amo dio asuli, “Hina Gode da Olofosudafa.” Amo fafai da wali Ofala moilai bai bagadega sagasi dana. (Ofala da A: ibisa fi dunu ilia moilai eno galu).

Then Gideon built an altar there unto the LORD, and called it 'Adonai-shalom'; unto this day it is yet in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

25 Amo gasia, Hina Gode da Gidionema amane sia: i, “Dia ada ea bulamagau gawali amola eno bulamagau gawali ode fesuale gala lela, amo lama. Dia ada ea gobele salasu fafai Ba: ilema sia: ne gadomusa: gagui, amo mugululi salima. Amola ogogosu ‘gode’ ifaga hahamoi uda Asila, amola Ba: ile, ela dafulili lelebe go abasalima.

And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said unto him: 'Take thy father's bullock, and the second bullock of seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal that thy father hath, and cut down the Asherah that is by it;

26 Dia Hina Godema gobele salasu fafai noga: idafa, goe bi da: iya gaguma. Amalu bulamagau gawali ageyadu e lale, ea da: i hodo huluane gobele salima. Amo gobele salimusa: di Asila ifa abasali lalu amoga lale didili gobele salima.”

and build an altar unto the LORD thy God upon the top of this stronghold, in the ordered place, and take the second bullock, and offer a burnt-offering with the wood of the Asherah which thou shalt cut down.'

27 Amaiba: le, Gidione ea hawa: hamosu dunu mogili, nabuane agoane lale, amola e da Hina Gode Ea ema adoi amo hamoi. E da ea sosogo fi amola ea moilai fi ilima beda: iba: le, yoga hamomu hamedei ba: i. Amaiba: le, e da gasia fawane hamoi.

Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as the LORD had spoken unto him; and it came to pass, because he feared his father's household and the men of the city, so that he could not do it by day, that he did it by night.

28 Moilai fi dunu da hahabedafa wa: legadole, ilia da gobele salasu fafai Ba: ilema sia: ne gadomusa: gagui, amola Asila ea ifa abasali dagoi ba: i. Amola bulamagau ageyadu amo da gobele salasu fafai (Gidione ea gagui liligi) amo da: iya gobele sali dagoi, ilia ba: i.

And when the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was broken down, and the Asherah was cut down that was by it, and the second bullock was offered upon the altar that was built.

29 Amalalu, ilia amane sia: i, “Nowa dunu da amo hou hamobela: ? Ilia amane lalabilaloba, Youa: se ea mano Gidione ea hamoi, ilia ba: i.

And they said one to another: 'Who hath done this thing?' And when they inquired and asked, they said: 'Gideon the son of Joash hath done this thing.'

30 Amalalu, ilia da Youa: sema amane sia: i, “Diagofe ninia fane legemusa: guiguda: oule misa. E da Ba: ile gobele salasu fafai amo mugululi sali amola Asila hou dawa: ma: ne liligi amoga dafulili dialu amo abasali.”

Then the men of the city said unto Joash: 'Bring out thy son, that he may die; because he hath broken down the altar of Baal, and because he hath cut down the Asherah that was by it.'

31 Be Youa: se da dunu huluane ilia da ema fofada: nanu, ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia da Ba: ile amoma gasala: ? Dilia amola e gaga: sala: ? Nowa da ema gale lela, amo da hahabe fane legei dagoi ba: mu. Ba: ile da Godedafa galea, defea, e da hisu hina: gaga: mu. Amo gobele salasu fafai mugululi sali da ea: liligi fawane, dilia: hame.”

And Joash said unto all that stood against him: 'Will ye contend for Baal? or will ye save him? he that will contend for him, shall be put to death before morning; if he be a god, let him contend for himself, because one hath broken down his altar.'

32 Amalalu, amohaga amola fa: no ilia da Gidione ea dio da Yeluba: ile, ilia da amane sia: dasu. Bai Youa: se da amane sia: i, “Ba: ile ea da hisu hina: gaga: mu da defea. Gobele salasu fafai mugululi sali da ea: liligi fawane.”

Therefore on that day he was called Jerubbaal, saying: 'Let Baal contend against him, because he hath broken down his altar.'

33 Amalalu, Midia: naide fi dunu, A:malege fi dunu amola hafoga: i sogega fi dunu huluane gilisili mogodigili asili, Yodane hano amo degele, Yeseliele fago amogai hawa: i fisu.

Now all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the children of the east assembled themselves together; and they passed over, and pitched in the valley of Jezreel.

34 Hina Gode Ea A: silibu da Gidione amoma noga: le seselalu, A:ibisa sosogo fi dunu ilia ema fa: no bobogema: ne, Gidione da dalabede fulaboi.

But the spirit of the LORD clothed Gideon; and he blew a horn; and Abiezer was gathered together after him.

35 E da sia: adola ahoasu dunu ilia Mana: se fi dunu da ema fa: no bobogema: ne, adole lama: ne asunasi. E da sia: adola ahoasu dunu A: sie, Sebiulane amola Na: fadalai amo fi dunu ilima adoma: ne asunasi. Amalu, ilia misini, ema madelai.

And he sent messengers throughout all Manasseh; and they also were gathered together after him; and he sent messengers unto Asher, and unto Zebulun, and unto Naphtali; and they came up to meet them.

36 Amalalu, Gidione da Godema amane sia: i, “Dia da amane sia: ba: , Isala: ili fi gaga: ma: ne, Dia da nama fidisu imunu sia: i.

And Gideon said unto God: 'If Thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as Thou hast spoken,

37 Defea! Na da sibi hinabo houga: i amo houga: i widi dabasu osobo da: iya amogai ligisimu. Be hahabe sibi hinabo houga: i da: iya oubi baeaga nanegai galea, be osobo da: iya da oubi baea hame ba: lalu, Isala: ili dunu fi amo na gaga: ma: ne, Dia da dafawane fidimusa: ilegei, amo na da dawa: mu.”

behold, I will put a fleece of wool on the threshing-floor; if there be dew on the fleece only, and it be dry upon all the ground, then shall I know that Thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as Thou hast spoken.'

38 Goe da didili agoane hamoi ba: i. Golale hahabedafa Gidione da wa: legadole, e da ofodo lale ligisili, sibi hinabo houga: i amo lale, oubi baea sibi hinaboga nanegai dialu amo ofodo gelaba ganodini dugini sali. Ofodo da amo hanoga nabaidafa ba: i.

And it was so; for he rose up early on the morrow, and pressed the fleece together, and wrung dew out of the fleece, a bowlful of water.

39 Amalalu, Gidione da Hina Godema amane sia: i, “Hina Gode! Dia nama mae ougima. Na da adoba: su afadafa eno hamomu da defeala: ? Be ha afaega musa: agoane hamosea, sibi hinabo houga: i da hafoga: i amola osobo da nanegai agoane ba: mu da defea.”

And Gideon said unto God: 'Let not Thine anger be kindled against me, and I will speak but this once: let me make trial, I pray Thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew.'

40 Amo gasia Gode da amo liligi didiliwane hamoi. Golale hahabe, sibi hinabo houga: i da hafoga: i ba: i, be osobo da oubi baeaga nanegai dialebe ba: i.

And God did so that night; for it was dry upon the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground.
