Bisisu 8

1 Amalalu, Ifala: ime fi dunu da Gidionema amane sia: i, “Di da Midia: ne fi ilima gegemusa: ahoanoba, abuliba: le nini misa: ne hame wele sia: bela: ? Abuliba: le nini se nabima: ne agoane hamobela: ?” Ilia da da: i dione egai.

And the men of Ephraim said unto him, Why hast thou served us thus, that thou calledst us not, when thou wentest to fight with the Midianites? And they did chide with him sharply.

2 Be Gidione da ilima bu adole i, “Mae dawa: ma! Dilia hamoi hou da na hamoi bagade baligisa. Dilia fidisu da na fi dunu huluane ilia fidisu amo bagade baligisa.

And he said unto them, What have I done now in comparison of you? [Is] not the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abi-ezer?

3 Dilia Gode Ea gasa lai dagoiba: le, Midia: ne ouligisu dunu aduna amo Oulebe amola Siebe fane legei dagoi. Na da dilia gasa bagade hou defele hamomu hamedei agoane ba: i.” E da amo sia: beba: le, Ifala: ime dunu ilia ougi bu gumi ba: i.

God hath delivered into your hands the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb: and what was I able to do in comparison of you? Then their anger was abated toward him, when he had said that.

4 Gidione amola ea dadi gagui (ilia idi da 300) da Yodane Hano amoga doaga: le degei dagoi. Ilia da bagade helei ba: i, be mae fisili ilia ha lai dunu sefasilalu.

And Gideon came to Jordan, [and] passed over, he, and the three hundred men that [were] with him, faint, yet pursuing [them].

5 Ilia da Sagode moilaiga doaga: loba, Gidione da Sagode dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Ha: i manu ninima ima. Na dunu da bagade helebe. Na da Midia: ne fi hina bagade dunu aduna amo Siba amola Sa: lamana sefasilala.”

And he said unto the men of Succoth, Give, I pray you, loaves of bread unto the people that follow me; for they [be] faint, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna, kings of Midian.

6 Be Sagode moilai ouligisu dunu da Gidionema bu adole i, “Ninia abuliba: le dia dadi gagui dunuma ha: i manu ima: bela: ? Di da wali Siba amola Sa: lamana hame gagui.”

And the princes of Succoth said, [Are] the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thine hand, that we should give bread unto thine army?

7 Amaiba: le, Gidione da amane sia: i, “Defea! Hina Gode da na fidimuba: le, na da Siba amola Sa: lamana gagumu. Amasea, na da dili aya: gaga: nomei hafoga: i sogega lai amoga famu.”

And Gideon said, Therefore when the LORD hath delivered Zebah and Zalmunna into mine hand, then I will tear your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers.

8 Gidione da bu asili, Beniuele moilaiga doaga: i. E da Sagode moilai dunu amoga edegei defele Beniuele dunuma adole ba: i. Be Beniuele dunu da Sagode dunu ilia hou defele, ha: i manu hame imunu sia: i.

And he went up thence to Penuel, and spake unto them likewise: and the men of Penuel answered him as the men of Succoth had answered [him].

9 Amaiba: le, Gidione da ilima amane sia: i, “Defea! Na da na ha lai ili hasalasili, hahawane bu misunu. Amalalu, na da dilia diasu gado gagagula heda: i amo mugulumu.”

And he spake also unto the men of Penuel, saying, When I come again in peace, I will break down this tower.

10 Siba amola Sa: lamana elea dadi gagui dunu huluane da Gago moilai bai bagadega gilisibi ba: i. Amo esoga, ilia hafoga: i soge dadi gagui dunu idi da 15,000 fawane ba: i. Eno dadi gagui dunu amo 120,000 da medole legei dagoi ba: i.

Now Zebah and Zalmunna [were] in Karkor, and their hosts with them, about fifteen thousand [men], all that were left of all the hosts of the children of the east: for there fell an hundred and twenty thousand men that drew sword.

11 Gidione da logo amo hafoga: i soge bega: Nouba moilai amola Yogebiha moilaiga eso mabadi la: ididili dialu, amo logoga asi. E da hedolowane Siba amola Sa: lamana ilia dadi gagui wa: i ilima doagala: le, ilia da fofogadigi.

And Gideon went up by the way of them that dwelt in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and smote the host: for the host was secure.

12 Midia: ne hina bagade dunu aduna amo Siba amola Sa: lamana da hobea: i. Be Gidione da elama doagala: le bobogele, ela gagulaligi. Amalalu, ela dadi gagui dunu huluane da beda: iba: le, hobea: i

And when Zebah and Zalmunna fled, he pursued after them, and took the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and discomfited all the host.

13 Gidione da hasaliba: le, bu misini, Helese fago ahoasu amoga asili,

And Gideon the son of Joash returned from battle before the sun [was up],

14 e da Sagode moilai goi amo gaguli, ema ea fi dunu ilia hou adole ba: i. Amo goi da Sagode moilai ouligisu dunu bagade 77amo ilia dio dedei.

And caught a young man of the men of Succoth, and enquired of him: and he described unto him the princes of Succoth, and the elders thereof, [even] threescore and seventeen men.

15 Amalalu, Gidione da Sagode dunu ilima asili, amane sia: i, “Siba amola Sa: lamana da goea. Na da amo dunu hame gaguiba: le, dilia da na dadi gagui dunu hele nababe, ilima ha: i manu imunu higa: i.”

And he came unto the men of Succoth, and said, Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, with whom ye did upbraid me, saying, [Are] the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thine hand, that we should give bread unto thy men [that are] weary?

16 Amalalu e da hafoga: i soge aya: gaga: nomei liligi lale, amoga Sagode ouligisu dunu se ima: ne fasu.

And he took the elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and with them he taught the men of Succoth.

17 Amola e da diasu gagagula gado heda: i, Beniuele moilaiga mugululi amola Beniuele dunu medole legei dagoi.

And he beat down the tower of Penuel, and slew the men of the city.

18 Amalalu, Gidione da Siba amola Sa: lamana elama amane adole ba: i, “Alia da Da: ibo moilaiga dunu medole legei. Alia da nowa dunu medole legebela: ?” Ela bu adole i, “Ilia da di agoane ba: i. Huluane da hina bagade ea mano defele agoane ba: i.”

Then said he unto Zebah and Zalmunna, What manner of men [were they] whom ye slew at Tabor? And they answered, As thou [art], so [were] they; each one resembled the children of a king.

19 Gidione da amane sia: i, “Ilia da nolalalia galu, na: medafa ea mano. Na da dafawane sia: sa. Alia da amo hame medole legei ganiaba, na da ali amola hame medole legela: loba.”

And he said, They [were] my brethren, [even] the sons of my mother: [as] the LORD liveth, if ye had saved them alive, I would not slay you.

20 Amalalu, e da ea magobo mano ea dio amo Yeda, amoma amane sia: i, “Defea! Dia ela medole legema!” Be amo goi da ea gegesu gobihei bagade hame duga: le gagui. E da hame asigilaiba: le, beda: i.

And he said unto Jether his firstborn, Up, [and] slay them. But the youth drew not his sword: for he feared, because he [was] yet a youth.

21 Amalalu, Siba amola Sa: lamana da Gidionema amane sia: i, “Defea! Disu ani medole legema. Dunudafa da dunudafa ea hawa: hamosu hamomu da defea.” Amaiba: le, Gidione da Siba amola Sa: lamana medole legei dagoi. E da liligi noga: i amo ela ga: mele ilia galogoa amoga gisa: gisi dialu amo lai dagoi.

Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, Rise thou, and fall upon us: for as the man [is, so is] his strength. And Gideon arose, and slew Zebah and Zalmunna, and took away the ornaments that [were] on their camels’ necks.

22 Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu huluane da Gidionema amane sia: i, “Di amola hobea digaga fi da ninima ouligisuwane esalumu da defea. Di da nini amo Midia: ne dunu iliga gaga: i dagoi.”

Then the men of Israel said unto Gideon, Rule thou over us, both thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son also: for thou hast delivered us from the hand of Midian.

23 Be Gidione da bu adole i, “Na da dilima ouligisuwane hame esalumu. Amola nagofe da dilima ouligisuwane hame esalumu. Be Hina Gode Hi fawane da dilima Hina ba: mu.”

And Gideon said unto them, I will not rule over you, neither shall my son rule over you: the LORD shall rule over you.

24 E da eno amane sia: i “Na da dilima afae fawane edegesa. Dilia gedu bagedigi Midia: ne dunu ilima lai, amo huluane nama ima.” (Midia: ne dunu da hafoga: i soge dunu fi huluane defele gouli gedu bagedigili salasu.)

And Gideon said unto them, I would desire a request of you, that ye would give me every man the earrings of his prey. (For they had golden earrings, because they [were] Ishmaelites.)

25 Dunu huluane da bu adole i, “Ninia da hahawane amo liligi dima imunuyo.” Ilia da abula ligisili, dunu huluane da amo da: iya geabagedigisu ilia lai ligisi.

And they answered, We will willingly give [them]. And they spread a garment, and did cast therein every man the earrings of his prey.

26 Gidione da gouli gedu bagedigi lai dagoi. Ilia dioi defei da 210 gilogala: me gadenene doaga: i. Ilia da eno liligi Gidionema i, amo bagedigi, gisa: gini sali amola ogaya: i abula musa: Midia: ne hina bagade dunu da gasi salasu amola gehea: la ilia da ga: mele ea galogoa ga: si.

And the weight of the golden earrings that he requested was a thousand and seven hundred [shekels] of gold; beside ornaments, and collars, and purple raiment that [was] on the kings of Midian, and beside the chains that [were] about their camels’ necks.

27 Gidione da amo gouli lale, ogogosu ‘gode’ agoaila loboga hamone, ea moilaidafa Ofala amo ganodini bugisi. Isala: ili dunu huluane iliawa da Gode fisili, Ofala moilai bai bagadega amo loboga hamoi liligima sia: ne gadomusa: asi. Amo liligi da Gidione amola ea sosogo fi ilima sani agoane ba: i.

And Gideon made an ephod thereof, and put it in his city, [even] in Ophrah: and all Israel went thither a whoring after it: which thing became a snare unto Gideon, and to his house.

28 Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da Midia: ne dunu ili hasalasi amola fa: no Midia: ne dunu da gasa hame ba: i. Amalalu, ode 40 eno amoga, Isala: ili dunu da olofosu ba: i. Amo ode 40 gidigili, Gidione da bogoi dagoi.

Thus was Midian subdued before the children of Israel, so that they lifted up their heads no more. And the country was in quietness forty years in the days of Gideon.

29 Gidione da hina: moilaidafa amoga buhagili esalu.

And Jerubbaal the son of Joash went and dwelt in his own house.

30 E da uda bagohame lale, dunu mano 70agoane lalelegei.

And Gideon had threescore and ten sons of his body begotten: for he had many wives.

31 E da uda eno lai. Amo da gidisedagi uda e da Siegeme moilaiga lai. Amo uda da dunu mano lalelegei. Gidione da amo manoma Abimelege dio asuli.

And his concubine that [was] in Shechem, she also bare him a son, whose name he called Abimelech.

32 Gidione (Youa: se egefe) da ode bagohame gidigili bogoi. Ilia da ea da: i hodo amo ea eda Youa: se ea bogoi uli dogosu Ofala moilai bai bagade (Abiese fi ilia moilai) amoga dialu, amo ganodini sali.

And Gideon the son of Joash died in a good old age, and was buried in the sepulchre of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abi-ezrites.

33 Gidione da bogoloba, Isala: ili dunu ilia da bu Gode fisili, Ba: ile ema nodone sia: ne gadoi. Ilia da ema ‘Ba: ile da Gousa: su Hamoi’ dio asuli, amola e da ilia ‘gode’dafa ilia da sia: su.

And it came to pass, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the children of Israel turned again, and went a whoring after Baalim, and made Baal-berith their god.

34 Ilia Hina Godedafa da ilima sisiga: i ha lai dunu ilima gaga: i dagoi. Be amo mae dawa: le, ilia da Hina Godema hawa: hamosu yolesi dagoi.

And the children of Israel remembered not the LORD their God, who had delivered them out of the hands of all their enemies on every side:

35 Amola Gidione da Isala: ili dunu fidima: ne, hawa: hamosu ida: iwane hamoi. Be ilia da Gidione ea sosogo fi ilima hame nodoi.

Neither shewed they kindness to the house of Jerubbaal, [namely], Gideon, according to all the goodness which he had shewed unto Israel.
