Bisisu 7
1 Eso afaega, Gidione amola ea dadi gagui dunu huluane hahabedafa wa: legadole, wa: i asili, Ha: ilode hano bubuga: su amo gadenene ha wa: i fi. Midia: ne fi dunu ilia hawa: i fisu da Isala: ili fi ilia fisisu amo gadili guga Moule Agolo fago amo gadenene dialebe, amogawi ba: i.
Then Jerobaal, who is the same as Gedeon, rising up early and all the people with him, came to the fountain that is called Harad. Now the camp of Madian was in the valley on the north side of the high hill.
2 Hina Gode da Gidionema amane sia: i, “Na da dilia Midia: ne fi dunu ili hasalasima: ne fidimu. Be di sigi aligisu dunu da bagohamedafa ba: sa. Isala: ili dunu ilia da ilisu Midia: ne fi dunu hasali, amo sia: sa: besa: le, amola Nama hame nodosa: besa: le,
And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people that are with thee are many, and Madian shall not be delivered into their hands: lest Israel should glory against me, and say: I was delivered by my own strength.
3 Isala: ili dunuma amane sia: ma, ‘Nowa dunu da beda: i galea, e da ea diasuga buhagimu da defea. Be ninia mogili da Gilia: de Goumia esalumu.’” Amaiba: le, dunu22,000 agoane da ilia diasuga buhagi. Be dunu 10,000 da ouesalu.
Speak to the people, and proclaim in the hearing of all, I Whosoever is fearful and timorous, let him return. So two and twenty thousand men went away from mount Galaad and returned home, and only ten thousand remained.
4 Amalalu, Hina Gode da Gidionema amane sia: i, “Wali amola dia dunu idi da bagohamedafa ba: sa. Dia ili huluane hanoa gudu amogai oule sa: ima. Amogai na da ili momogilisimu. Na da dunu afae dia sigi masa: ne sia: sea, e da masunu. Be Na da eno dunu mae masa: ne sia: sea, e da hame masunu.”
And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people are still too many, bring them to the waters, and there I will try them: and of whom I shall say to thee, This shall go with thee, let him go: whom I shall forbid to go, let him return.
5 Gidione da ea dunu amo hanoa oule sa: ili, Hina Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Nowa dunu ilia da wa: me agoane hano leba: le nasea, amola nowa ilia da muguni bugili hano nosone nasea, amo dia mogima.”
And when the people were come down to the waters, the Lord said to Gedeon: They that shall lap the water with their tongues, as dogs are wont to lap, thou shalt set apart by themselves: but they that shall drink bowing down their knees, shall be on the other side.
6 Dunu 300 agoane da hano amo loboga ofodalu leba: le nasu. Be dunu eno huluane da muguni bugili, hano nosona dasu.
And the number of them that had lapped water, casting it with the hand to their mouth, was three hundred men: and all the rest of the multitude had drunk kneeling.
7 Hina Gode Ea da Gidionema amane sia: i, “Na da di fidimuba: le, di amola dunu 300 amo da hano loboga ofodalu leba: le nasu, amo fawane da Midia: ne dunu fi ili hasalasimu. Eno dunu huluane ilia diasuga buhagima: ne sia: ma.”
And the Lord said to Gedeon: By the three hundred men, that lapped water, I will save you, and deliver Madian into thy hand: but let all the rest of the people return to their place.
8 Amalalu, Gidione da amo dunu 300 amo fawane esaloma: ne sia: i. Eno huluane e da ilia diasuga buhagima: ne asunasi. Be Gidione amola amo dunu 300 da liligi sagosu, amola dalabede huluane gegedole legei.
So taking victuals and trumpets according to their number, he ordered all the rest of the multitude to depart to their tents: and he with the three hundred gave himself to the battle. Now the camp of Madian was beneath him in the valley.
9 Amo gasia, Hina Gode da Gidionema amane sia: i, “Wa: legadole, Midia: ne hawa: i fisu amo doagala: ma! Na fidimuba: le, dia da ili osa: la heda: mu.
The same night the Lord said to him: Arise, and go down into the camp: because I have delivered them into thy hand.
10 Be di da beda: iba: le, doagala: mu hamedei ba: sea, di amola dia hawa: hamosu dunu Fiula, Midia: ne dunu ilia fia amo gudu sa: ima.
But if thou be afraid to go alone, let Phara thy servant go down with thee.
11 Amogawi, alia da ilia fada: i sia: dalebe nabimu. Amasea di da ilima mae beda: iwane doagala: mu.” Amaiba: le, Gidione amola ea hawa: hamosu dunu Fiula da ilia ha lai dunu hawa: i fisu bega: gudu sa: i.
And when thou shalt hear what they are saying, then shall thy hands be strengthened, and thou shalt go down more secure to the enemies’ camp. And he went down with Phara his servant into part of the camp, where was the watch of men in arms.
12 Midia: ne fi dunu, A:malege fi dunu amola hafoga: i soge fi dunu da fago ganodini fiafia: i esalebe ba: i. Ilia wa: i da danuba: wa: i agoane ba: i. Idimu hamedei agoai ba: i. Ilia ga: mele idi da sa: iboso hano wayabo bagade bega: dialebe amo defele ba: i.
But Madian and Amalec, and all the eastern people lay scattered in the valley, as a multitude of locusts: their camels also were innumerable as the sand that lieth on the sea shore.
13 Gidione da Midia: ne awali asili fisisu amoga doaga: loba, e da Midia: ne dunu afae ea fi dunu ilima ea simasia ba: i liligi adolalebe nabi. E da amane adolalu, “Na da simasia agoane ba: i. Bali agi ga: gi gasui da bebesola asili, ninia fisisu amo ganodini misini, abula diasu afadafa fai. Abula diasu da mugululi sa: ili, bana: na sa: i ba: i.”
And when Gedeon was come, one told his neighbour a dream: and in this manner related what he had seen: I dreamt a dream, and it seemed to me as if a hearth cake of barley bread rolled and came down into the camp of Madian: and when it was come to a tent it struck it, and beat it down flat to the ground.
14 Ea fi dunu da ema bu adole i, “Dafawane! Goe da Isala: ili dunu Gidione, Youa: se egefe amo ea gegesu gobihei sedade olelesa. Bai eno da hame gala. Gode da Gidione ninia Midia: ne fi dadi gagui huluane ili hasalasima: ne, logo doasi dagoi.”
He to whom he spoke, answered: This is nothing else but the sword of Gedeon the son of Joas a man of Israel. For the Lord hath delivered Madian, and all their camp into his hand.
15 Gidione da amo simasia ba: i amola amo ea bai nabaloba, e da ea muguni dudugini sa: ili, Godema nodone sia: ne gadoi. Amalalu, e da Isala: ili dunu ilia awalia asili fisisu amoga bu asili, Isala: ili dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Wa: legadoma! Hina Gode da nini Midia: ne dadi gagui ilima osa: la heda: ma: ne logo doasi dagoi.”
And when Gedeon had heard the dream, and the interpretation thereof, he adored: and returned to the camp of Israel, and said: Arise, for the Lord hath delivered the camp of Madian into our hands.
16 E da ea fi dunu 300 amo udiana agoane momogi. E da dunu huluane afae afae ilima dalabede amola ganagu osoboga hamoi i dagoi.
And he divided the three hundred men into three parts, and gave them trumpets in their hands, and empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.
17 E da ilima amane sia: i, “Na da Midia: ne fisisu bidiga doaga: sea, dilia na hou ba: lalu amo defele hamoma.
And he said to them: What you shall see me do, do you the same: I will go into one part of the camp, and do you as I shall do.
18 Na amola na dunu gilisisu da ninia dalabede fulabosea, dilia amola hawa: i fisu fiafia: le esala amo sisiga: le, dilia dalabede fulabole, bagadewane amane wele sia: ma, ‘Ninia da Hina Gode amola Gidione elamagale gegesa.’”
When the trumpet shall sound in my hand, do you also blow the trumpets on every side of the camp.
19 Gidione amola ema fa: no bobogesu dunu 100 agoane da gasimoga Midia: ne amola A: malege ilia fisisu bega: doaga: i. Ilia amo fisisu sosodo aligisu dunu da afadenei dagoi ba: i. Amalalu, ilia da dalabede fulaboi amola osobo ganagu ilia lobo ganodini gagui amo goudai.
And Gedeon, and the three hundred men that were with him, went into part of the camp, at the beginning of the midnight watch, and the watchmen being alarmed, they began to sound their trumpets, and to clap the pitchers one against another.
20 Gidione ea fi aduna eno da amo defele hamoi. Ilia da ilia hanu amo ilia lobo fofadi amoga gaguli amola ilia dalabede lobodafa amo ganodini gaguli, amane wele sia: i, “Gobihei bagade Hina Gode amola Gidione elamagale gegemusa: gala.”
And when they sounded their trumpets in three places round about the camp, and had broken their pitchers, they held their lamps in their left hands, and with their right hands the trumpets which they blew, and they cried out: The sword of the Lord and of Gedeon;
21 Gidione ea fi dunu da fisisu sisiga: le lelu. Amola ha lai dadi gagui dunu da beda: iba: le, wele sia: nanu, hobea: i.
Standing every man in his place round about the enemies’ camp. So all the camp was troubled, and crying out and howling they fled away.
22 Gidione ea dunu da dalabede fulabolalu, Hina Gode da Midia: ne dunu ilia dogo ganodini olelebeba: le, ilia da sama eno ea sama amoma doagala: i. Ilia da Sa: leda: ne moilaiga doaga: musa: asili, Bedesida moilai amola A: ibele Mihoula moilai (Da: bade soge gadenene) amoga doaga: i.
And the three hundred men nevertheless persisted sounding the trumpets. And the Lord sent the sword into all the camp, and they killed one another,
23 Amalalu Gidione da Na: fadalai fi, A:sie fi amola Mana: se fi aduna ilima misa: ne sia: nanu, ilia da Midia: ne dunu sebobogelalu.
Fleeing as far as Bethsetta, and the border of Abelmahula in Tebbath. But the men of Israel shouting from Nephtali and Aser, and from all Manasses pursued after Madian.
24 Gidione da sia: adola ahoasu dunu asunasi. Ilia da Ifala: ime agolo soge amoga lalu, amane sia: i, “Midia: ne dunuma gegemusa: , gudu sa: ima. Ilia da Yodane Hano amola hano huluane asili Bedebala amoga doaga: sa, amo ilia mae degema: ne, noga: le ouligima.” Ilia da Ifala: ime dunu huluane gagadomusa: sia: i, amola ilia da hano huluane amo Yodane Hano amola hano huluane asili, Bedebala amoga doaga: su, amo huluane gagulaligi.
And Gedeon sent messengers into all mount Ephraim, saying: Come down to meet Madian, and take the waters before them to Bethbera and the Jordan. And all Ephraim shouted, and took the waters before them and the Jordan as far as Bethbera.
25 Ilia da Midia: ne hina dunu aduna amo Oulebe amola Siebe gagulaligi. Ilia da Oulebe amo Oulebe Igi sogebi amoga fuga: i. Amola ilia da Siebe amo Siebe Waini Fage Labugisu amoga fuga: i. Ilia da mae fisili, Midia: ne dunu sefasilalu. Gidione da asili, Yodane Hano ea eso mabe la: idi amoga esalu. Isala: ili dunu da Oulebe amola Siebe ela dialuma damuni, gaguli asili, Gidionema i.
And having taken two men of Madian, Oreb and Zeb: Oreb they slew in the rock of Oreb, and Zeb in the winepress of Zeb. And they pursued Madian, carrying the heads of Oreb and Zeb to Gedeon beyond the waters of the Jordan.
