1 Gidione egefe amo Abimelege (Gidione ea gidisedagi uda ea mano) da Siegeme moilai bai bagadega asi. Ea ame ea sosogo fi da amogawi esalu. E da ilima amane sia: i,
And Abimelech the son of Yerubba'al went to Shechem unto his mother's brothers, and spoke unto them, and unto all the family of the house of his mother's father, saying,
2 “Siegeme dunu ilima amane adole ba: ma, ‘Dilima ouligisuwane esaloma: ne dilia da nowa hanabela: ? Gidione egefe70da dilima ouligisu esalumu da defeala: ? O dunu afadafa fawane da defeala: ? Mae gogolema! Abimelege da dilia fidafa dunu. Dilia hu amola maga: me afadafa fawane hamoi galu.’”
Speak, I pray you, in the ears of all the men of Shechem, What is better for you, either that there should rule over you seventy men, all the sons of Yerubba'al, or that there reign over you one man? and remember that I am your bone and your flesh.
3 Abimelege ame ea sosogo fi da amo sia: Siegeme dunuma sia: dasu. Amola Siegeme dunu da Abimelege ema fa: no bobogemusa: dawa: i galu. Bai Abimelege da ilia sosogo fi dunu esalu, ilia ba: i.
And his mother's brothers spoke concerning him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all these words; and their heart became inclined after Abimelech; for they said, He is our brother.
4 Ilia da Ba: ile gousa: su hamoi amo ea debolo diasuga, muni silifa fage 70 agoane lale, Abimelegema i. Abimelege da hamedei wadela: i hamosu dunu e fidima: ne sia: i amola, ilima amo muni i.
And they gave him seventy pieces of silver out of the house of Ba'al-berith; and Abimelech hired therewith idle and heedless persons, who followed him.
5 E da ea ada diasu Ofala moilai bai bagadega dialu amoga asili, igi afae amo da: iya ea yolali (Gidione egefe) 70 agoane huluane medole legei dagoi. Be Youda: me (Gidione ea ufidafa mano) da wamoaligili, esalebe ba: i.
And he came unto his father's house at 'Ophrah, and slew his brothers the sons of Yeruhba'al, seventy persons, upon one stone; and there was yet left Yotham the youngest son of Yerubba'al; for he had hidden himself.
6 Amalalu, Siegeme dunu huluane da gilisili, sema ouge ifa Siegeme sogega lelu amoga asili, Abimelege hina bagade ilegei dagoi.
And all the men of Shechem and all Beth-millo assembled together, and went, and made Abimelech king, by the oak of the pillar that was by Shechem.
7 Youda: me da amo sia: nababeba: le, asili, Gelesime Goumi amo da: iya gado lelu, amane wele sia: i, “Dilia Siegeme dunu! Na sia: nabima! Amasea, Gode da dilia sia: nabima: bela: ?
And they told it to Yotham; and he went and stood on the top of mount Gerizzim, and he lifted up his voice, and cried; and he said unto them, Hearken unto me, ye men of Shechem, so that God may hearken unto you.
8 Eso afaega, ifa huluane da gilisili, ilia hina bagade ilegema: ne gilisi. Ilia da olife ifa amoma amane sia: i, ‘Di ninia hina bagade hamoma.’
The trees went once forth to anoint a king over them; and they said unto the olive-tree, Reign thou over us.
9 Be olife ifa da bu adole i, ‘Hame mabu! Na fage amoga dunu ilia susuligi amo ‘gode’ amola osobo bagade dunu ilima nodomusa: laha. Be na da dili ouligisia, susuligi bu hamomu da hamedeiwane ba: mu.’
But the olive-tree said unto them, Should I give up my fatness, wherewith through me they honor God and men, and shall I go to be promoted over the trees!
10 Amalalu, ifa eno ilia da figi ifa amoma amane sia: i, ‘Di misini, ninia hina bagade hamoma.’
And the trees said to the fig-tree, Come thou, reign over us.
11 Be figi ifa da bu adole i, ‘Hame mabu! Na da dili ouligisia, noga: i hedai fage bu legemu da hamedeiwane ba: mu.’
But the fig-tree said unto them, Should I give up my sweetness, and my good productiveness, and go to be promoted over the trees?
12 Amalalu, ifa ilia da waini efe amoma amane sia: i, ‘Di misini, ninia hina bagade hamoma.’
Then said the trees unto the vine, Come thou, reign over us.
13 Be waini efe da bu adole i, ‘Hame mabu! Na waini hano da ‘gode’ ili amola osobo bagade dunu amo nasea hahawane ba: sa. Be na da dilia ouligisia, waini hano bu imunu hamedeiwane ba: mu.’
But the vine said unto them, Should I give up my fresh wine, which rejoiceth God and men, and go to be promoted over the trees!
14 Amalalu, ifa huluane da aya: gaga: nomei legei ifa fonobahadi amoma amane sia: i, ‘Di misa! Ninia hina bagade hamoma.’
Then said all the trees unto the bramble, Come thou, reign over us.
15 Aya: gaga: nomei legei ifa da bu adole i, ‘Defea! Dilia da dafawane na dilia hina bagade hamomu hanai galea, misa amola na ougia hagudua aligima. Dilia agoane hame hamosea, na aya: gaga: nomei legei amoda amoga lalu da gadili nenanebe ba: mu. Amola amo lalu da Lebanone soge dolo ifa huluane nene dagomu.’”
And the bramble said unto the trees, If in truth ye anoint me as king over you, then come seek protection in my shadow; and if not, then let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of the Lebanon.
16 Youda: me da eno amane sia: i, “Dilia da Abimelege hina bagade hamoma: ne ilegebeba: le, noga: i amola moloiwane hamobela: ? Gidione amola ea sosogo fi da hou noga: idafa hamosu. Be dilia da amo nodone dawa: beba: le, amo hou hamobela: ?
And now, if ye have acted in truth and sincerity, when ye made Abimelech king, and if ye have dealt well with Yerubba'al and his house, and have done unto him according to the merit of his hands;
17 Na ada da dili gaga: ma: ne fidili gegei dagoi. Amo mae gogolema! E da ea esalusu mae dawa: le, dili Midia: ne dunu ilima gaga: ma: ne fidili gegei.
(In that my father fought for you, and cast his life far away, and delivered you out of the hand of Midian;
18 Be wali esoga dilia da na ada sosogo fi amo wadela: lesi dagoi. Dilia da ea mano 70 amo huluane igi afadafa da: iya medole legei dagoi. Abimelege da Gidione ea hawa: hamosu uda amo ea mano. Be e da dilia sosogo fiba: le, dilia da e Isala: ili dunu ouligima: ne, ema ilegei dagoi.
While ye are risen up against my father's house this day, and have slain his sons, seventy men, upon one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his maid-servant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your brother; )
19 Amaiba: le amo hou dilia da Gidione amola ea sosogo fi ilima wali eso hamoi, amo da hou noga: i amola moloi ba: sea, defea, dilia Abimelege ema hahawane galoma. Amola e da dilima hahawane ganumu da defea.
If ye have thus acted in truth and sincerity with Yerubba'al and with his house this day: then rejoice ye in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you.
20 Be amai hame galea, defea, lalu da Abimelege amoga nene, Siegeme dunu amola Bedemilou dunu nene dagoi ba: mu da defea. Amola lalu da Siegeme dunu amola Bedemilou dunu amoga nene, Abimelege amola nei dagoi ba: mu da defea.”
But if not, let fire come out from Abimelech, and devour the men of Shechem and Beth-millo; and let fire come out from the men of Shechem, and from Beth-millo, and devour Abimelech.
21 Amalalu, Youda: me da ea ola Abimelege ema beda: iba: le, hobeale, asili, Bie sogega doaga: le, esalu.
And Yotham ran away, and fled, and went to Beer, and dwelt there, for fear of Abimelech his brother.
22 Abimelege da ode udiana amoga Isala: ili soge ouligisu.
And Abimelech ruled over Israel three years;
23 Amalalu, Gode da Abimelege amola Siegeme dunu ela da sia: ga gegema: ne hamoi. Ilia da Abimelege fisili, ema ha laiwane ba: i.
And then did God send an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem became unfaithful toward Abimelech;
24 Abimelege amola Siegeme dunu (ilia da Abimelege fidi amola ea dogo denesi) ilia da Gidione ea manoni 70 agoane fufuga: i. Ilia da amo wadela: i hou se iasu dabe lama: ne, Gode da ilima afafasu hou i.
So that the violence [done] to the seventy sons of Yerubba'al might come, and their blood be laid upon Abimelech their brother, who had slain them; and upon the men of Shechem, who had strengthened his hands to slay his brothers.
25 Siegeme dunu da goumi gadodili Abimelege fuga: ma: ne logo la: ididili wamoaligisu. Nowa dunu da logoga ahoanoba, ilia da amo dunu ilia liligi wamolasu. Eno dunu da amo hou Abimelegema olelei.
And the men of Shechem set persons to lie in wait for him on the tops of the mountains, and they robbed all that passed by them on that way: and it was told unto Abimelech.
26 Amalalu, Ga: ile (Ebede ea egefe) amola yolalali da Siegeme sogega misi. Siegeme dunu da ema fa: no bobogei.
And there came Ga'al the son of 'Ebed with his brothers, and passed through Shechem: and the men of Shechem put their confidence in him.
27 Ilia huluane da ilia waini sagai amoga asili, waini fage faili, waini hano hamone, lolo nasu gilisisu hamoi. Ilia da ilia ogogosu ‘gode’ ea debolo diasu amo ganodini golili sa: ili, ha: i mai, waini hano mai amola Abimelege ea hou gadele sia: dasu.
And they went out into the field, and gathered their vineyards, and trod [the grapes], and made joyful feasts, and went into the house of their god, and ate and drank, and cursed Abimelech.
28 Ga: ile da amane sia: i, “Ninia hou da adi houla: ? Ninia abuliba: le Abimelege ea hawa: hamosala: ? E da nowala: ? E da Gidione ea mano fawane. Sibale da ea sia: naba, be ninia da abuliba: le ema fa: no bobogesala: ? Dilia aowalalia eda amo Ha: imo da dilia fi muni hemosu. Ema fa: no bobogemu da defea.
And Ga'al the son of 'Ebed said, Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? is not he the son of Yerubba'al? and Zebul his superintendent? serve the men of Chamor the father of Shechem; for why indeed should we serve him?
29 Na da dilia fi ilima ouligisu ganiaba, na da Abimelege amo sefasila: loba. Na da ema, ‘Dia dadi gagui gilisisu hahamoma! Gadili asili ninima gegema!’ na da ema sia: na: noba.”
And O that some one would put this people into my power! and I would remove Abimelech. And he let it be said to Abimelech, Increase thy army, and come out.
30 Siegeme moilai bai bagade ouligisu dunu amo Sibale, da Ga: ile ea sia: nababeba: le, mi hanai galu.
And when Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Ga'al the son of 'Ebed, his anger was kindled.
31 Abimelege da Aluma sogega esalu. Sibale da ema adola ahoasu dunu asunasi. Ilia da ema amane sia: i, “Ga: ile (Ebede egefe) amola yolali da Siegeme moilai bai bagadega doaga: i. Ilia da di Siegeme golili sa: imu logo ga: simu.
And he sent messengers unto Abimelech privately, saying, Behold, Ga'al the son of 'Ebed and his brothers are come to Shechem; and, behold, they incite the city to enmity against thee.
32 Amaiba: le, di amola dima fa: no bobogesu dunu amo gasia wa: legadole, moifufu ganodini wamoaligima.
And now rise up by night, thou and the people that are with thee, and lie in wait in the field:
33 Aya hahabe, eso mabe amoga wa: legadole amola moilai bai bagadega doagala: ma. Amasea, Ga: ile amola ea dunu da dilima gegemusa: gadili ahoasea, dia ha: giwane ili fama.”
And it shall be, in the morning, the moment the sun shineth, that thou shalt rise early, and set upon the city; and, behold, when he and the people that are with him come out against thee, then mayest thou do to him as thy means may let thee.
34 Amaiba: le, Abimelege amola ea dunu huluane da gasia asili, Siegeme moilai bai bagadega gadili wamoaligi. Ilia da gilisisu biyadu gala hamoi.
And Abimelech rose up, and all the people that were with him, by night, and they lay in wait against Shechem in four companies.
35 Abimelege amola ea dunu da Ga: ile gadili misini moilai bai bagade logo ga: su amoga lelebe ba: loba, ilia da ilia wamoaligisu sogebi fisili, wa: legadoi.
And Ga'al the son of 'Ebed went out, and stood in the entrance of the city-gate: and Abimelech rose up, and the people that were with him, from the ambush.
36 Ga: ile da amo dunu ba: le, Sibalema amane sia: i, “Hodoma! Dunu da goumi gado fisili manebe goea!” Sibale da bu adole i, “Amo da dunu hame. Amo da baba goumia digaga: la: i fawane.”
And when Ga'al saw the people, he said to Zebul, Behold, people are coming down from the tops of the mountains. And Zebul said unto him, Thou regardest the shadow of the mountains as men.
37 Be Ga: ile da bu sia: i, “Hodoma! Dunu da goumi felea gado manebegoea. Amola gilisisu eno da logo amo da ba: la: lusu dunu ilia ouge ifa amoga maha amoga manebe na ba: sa.”
And Ga'al spoke again and said, See people are coming down from the highest point of the land, and one company is coming along by the way of the grove of Me'onenim.
38 Amalalu, Sibale da ema amane sia: i, “Defea! Dia gasa fi sia: da wali habila: ? Dia gasa fili, ninia abuliba: le amo dunu Abimelege ea hawa: hamosala: ? sia: i dagoi. Amo dunu wali manebe da dunu dia hihini lasogoi dagoi. Di gadili asili, ilima gegema.”
Then said Zebul unto him, Where is now thy mouth, wherewith thou saidst, Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him! is not this the people that thou hast despised? go out now, I pray, and fight with them.
39 Ga: ile da Siegeme dunu gadili oule asili, Abimelege amoma gegei.
And Ga'al went out before the men of Shechem, and fought with Abimelech.
40 Ga: ile hobea: i amola Abimelege da e sefasi. Dunu bagohame da moilai logo ga: su amoga fa: faginisi bagade ba: i.
And Abimelech pursued him, and he fled before him, and many fell slain, even as far as the entrance of the gate.
41 Abimelege da Aluma moilaiga esalu. Amola Sibale da Ga: ile amola yolali gadili sefasi. Amaiba: le, ilia bu Siegeme moilai amo ganodini esalumu hamedeiwane ba: i.
And Abimelech remained at Arumah: and Zebul banished Ga'al and his brothers, that they should not remain in Shechem.
42 Aya amoha, Abimelege da Siegeme dunu da ilia ifabi amoga masusa: dawa: i, e da amane nabi.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people went out into the field; and it was told to Abimelech.
43 Amaiba: le, e da ea dunu afafane, gilisisu udiana hamone, ifabi ganodini wamoaligili, ouesalu. E da Siegeme dunu moilaiga gadili manebe ba: loba, e da ea wamoaligisu fisili, ili medomusa: misi.
And he took the people, and divided them into three companies, and lay in wait in the field; and as he saw, and, behold, that the people were coming forth out of the city, he rose up against them, and smote them.
44 Abimelege amola ea gilisisu da hehenane, moilai bai bagade logo ga: su amo ouligimusa: ahoanoba, ea eno gilisisu aduna da Siegeme dunu ifabia esalu amoga doagala: le, huluane medole legei dagoi.
And Abimelech, and the companies that were with him, spread forward, and took position in the entrance of the city-gate: and the two other companies spread over all that were in the fields, and smote them.
45 Amo esoga ilia mae fisili gegenanu. Abimelege da Siegeme moilai amo lai dagoi. E da dunu huluane medole legele, diasu huluane mugululi, osobo amo deme amoga dedeboi.
And Ahimelech fought against the city all that day; and he captured the city, and the people that were therein he slew; and he beat down the city, and sowed it with salt.
46 Be Siegeme ouligisu dunu da gasa bagade diasu amo ganodini gagili sali ba: i. Ilia da amo hou nababeba: le, hehenane gasa bagade ‘Ba: ile da Gousa: su Hamoi’ ea debolo diasu ganodini gagili sali.
And when all the men of the tower of Shechem heard this, they entered into the stronghold of the house of the god Berith.
47 Ilia da amo debolo diasu ganodini gagili sali amo nababeba: le, Abimelege da Sa: lamoune Goumi amoga ea dunu oule asi. Amalalu, e da goaha: i lale, ifa amoda damuni, amo gisa asi. Ea dunu da amo defele hedolo hamoma: ne, e sia: i.
And it was told unto Abimelech, that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.
And Abimelech went thereupon up to mount Zalmon, he and all the people that were with him; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand, and cut down a bough from a tree, and bore it, and laid it on his shoulder; and he said unto the people that were with him, What ye have seen that I have done, make haste, and do like me.
49 Amaiba: le, dunu huluane da ifa amoda damui. Amalalu, ilia da Abimelege amoma fa: no bobogele, ifa huluane amo Ba: ile gasa bagade diasu amo ea baiga ligisili, lalu didi. Lalu da amo diasu nene dagoi. Dunu amola uda (1,000 agoane) huluane amo diasu ganodini esalu da bogogia: i dagoi.
And all the people also cut down every man his bough, and followed Abimelech, and put the same to the stronghold, and set the stronghold over them on fire: and thus died also all the people of the tower of Shechem, about a thousand men and women.
50 Amalalu, Abimelege da Dibese moilai bai bagadega asili, sisiga: le, lai dagoi.
And Abimelech went then to Thebez, and encamped against Thebez, and captured it.
51 Amo moilai ganodini, gasa bagade diasu sedade gado gagagula heda: lebe ba: i. Dibese dunu, uda amola ilia ouligisu dunu da amoga hehenai. Ilia da golili sa: ili, logo ga: le, diasu figisu gadodafa amoga asi.
But there was a strong tower within the city, and thither fled all the men and the women, and all the chief persons of the city, and shut the doors behind them, and went up to the roof of the tower.
52 Abimelege da amo sedade diasu gado gagagula heda: i doagala: musa: misini, e da amo logo ga: suga laluga ulagimusa: asi.
And Abimelech came up to the tower, and fought against it, and approached as far as the door of the tower to burn it with fire.
53 Be uda afae da igi bagade (amoga ilia da widi goudasu) amo gududili sanasili, Abimelege ea dialuma gasa goudai.
But a certain woman cast a piece of an upper millstone upon Abimelech's head, and crushed his skull.
54 Amalalu, Abimelege da goi dunu (amo da Abimelege ea gegesu liligi gaguli ahoasu) amo ema misa: ne sia: ne, amane adoi, “Dia gegesu gobihei bagade duga: le gadole, na medole legemu. Dunu eno ilia da Abimelege udaga medole legei amo sia: mu na higa: i gala mabu.” Amaiba: le, amo goi da Abimelege gegesu gobiheiga sone, e bogoi.
Then called he hastily unto the young man that bore his armor, and said unto him, Draw thy sword, and slay me, that people may not say of me, A woman hath slain him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died.
55 Isala: ili dunu da Abimelege bogoi dagoi ba: beba: le, ilia diasuga buhagi.
And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed every man to his place.
56 Gode da agoaiwane Abimelegema dabe i. Bai e da ea yolalali 70 amo medole legeiba: le, ea ada Gidionema wadela: i bagade hamosu.
Thus did God compensate the evil of Abimelech, which he had done unto his father, in slaying his seventy brothers:
57 Amola Siegeme dunu da wadela: i bagade hamobeba: le, Gode da ilima se iasu. Gidione egefe amo Youda: me da ilima gagabusu aligima: ne i, amo defele ba: i dagoi.
And all the evil of the men of Shechem did God bring back upon their own head; and there came upon them the curse of Yotham the son of Yerubba'al.
