Oweruza 8
1 Aefereimu anafunsa Gideoni kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani watichita zimenezi? Bwanji sunatiyitane pamene umakamenyana ndi Amidiyani?” Iwo anamudzudzula kwambiri.
Namoonni Efreem, “Ati maaliif akkana nu goote? Yeroo Midiyaanin dhaʼuuf duultetti maaliif nu hin waamin?” jedhanii Gidewoon gaafatan. Akka malees isatti dheekkaman.
2 Koma iye anawayankha kuti, “Nʼchiyani ndachita kuyerekeza ndi zimene mwachita inu? Kodi zimene mwachita inu Aefereimu si zazikulu kuposa zimene fuko langa la Abiezeri lachita?
Inni immoo akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Wanni ani hojjedhe yoo waan isin hojjettaniin wal bira qabame gatii maalii qaba? Qarmiin wayinii Efreem oomisha wayinii Abiiʼezer sana hunda hin caaluu?
3 Mulungu wapereka mafumu a Midiyani, Orebu ndi Zeebu mʼmanja mwanu. Ndachita chiyani kuyerekeza ndi zimene mwachita inu?” Atanena izi, anthuwo mitima yawo inatsika.
Waaqni hooggantoota Midiyaanotaa jechuunis Hereebii fi Zeʼeebin dabarsee harka keessanitti kenneera. Egaa ani waan isin hojjettaniin wajjin kan wal qixxaatu maal hojjechuun dandaʼa ture?” Yommuu inni waan kana jedhettis aariin isaan isatti aaran ni qabbanaaʼe.
4 Gideoni anafika ndi kuwoloka mtsinje wa Yorodani pamodzi ndi anthu 300 amene anali naye. Ngakhale kuti anali otopa anapirikitsabe adani awo.
Gidewoonii fi namoonni isa wajjin turan dhibbi sadan dhufanii Yordaanos ceʼan; isaan akka malee dadhaban iyyuu ittuma fufanii jara ariʼan.
5 Atafika ku Sukoti anapempha anthu a kumeneko kuti, “Chonde apatseniko buledi ankhondo angawa pakuti atopa. Koma ine ndikupirikitsa Zeba ndi Zalimuna, mafumu a Midiyani.”
Innis namoota Sukootiitiin, “Loltoota kootiif buddeena kennaa; isaan baayʼee na duraa dadhabaniiruutii; ani amma iyyuu mootota Midiyaanotaa jechuunis Zebaa fi Zalmunaa ariʼaa jira” jedhe.
6 Koma atsogoleri a Sukoti anayankha kuti, “Kodi Zeba ndi Zalimuna mwawagonjetsa kale kuti tipatse buledi ankhondo akowa?”
Qondaaltonni Sukoot garuu, “Loltoota keetiif nu buddeena kan kenninu ati Zebaa fi Zalmunaa harka keetti galfatteertaa?” jedhaniin.
7 Gideoni anayankha kuti, “Mwatero! Yehova akapereka Zeba ndi Zalimuna mʼdzanja langa, ndidzakukwapulani ndi matsatsa a minga ya mʼchipululu.”
Gidewoonis deebisee, “Tole kaa, yommuu Waaqayyo dabarsee Zebaa fi Zalmunaa harka kootti kennutti ani qoraattii gammoojjiitii fi arangamaadhaan foon keessan ciccira” jedheen.
8 Atachoka pamenepo anapita ku Penueli ndipo anapemphanso buledi kwa anthu a kumeneko, koma iwo anamuyankha monga anayankhira anthu a ku Sukoti aja.
Achiis gara namoota Phenuuʼeel dhaqee akkuma warra duraa sana kadhatetti isaanis gaafate; isaan garuu akkuma warri Sukoot deebisanitti deebii kennan.
9 Gideoni anawawuzanso kuti, “Ndikamadzabwerera nditawagonjetsa, ndidzagwetsa nsanja iyi.”
Kanaafuu inni namoota Phenuuʼeeliin, “Ani yeroo moʼadhee deebiʼutti gamoo kana nan jigsa” jedhe.
10 Nthawi iyi nʼkuti Zeba ndi Zalimuna ali ku Karikori ndi ankhondo pafupifupi 15,000. Amenewa ndiwo anatsalako mwa ankhondo a anthu akummawa; pakuti anafa ankhondo 120,000.
Yeroo sanatti Zebaa fi Zalmunaan loltoota isaanii kanneen kuma kudha shanitti hedaman wajjin iddoo Qarqari jedhamu turan; isaan kunneenis loltoota namoota baʼa biiftuutii walitti qabaman keessaa hafan hundaa dha; warri goraadee hidhatan kumni kudha lama dhumanii turaniitii.
11 Gideoni anadzera njira ya anthu a matenti kummawa kwa Noba ndi Yogibeha ndipo anawathira nkhondo popeza ankhondo awo anali osakonzekera.
Gidewoonis karaa warra baʼa Noobaahiitii fi Yogbihaatiin dunkaana keessa jiraatanii baʼee loltoota homaa hin birʼatin dhaʼe; raayyaan waraanaa sun of dagatee tureetii.
12 Zeba ndi Zalimuna, mafumu awiri a Amidiyani anathawa koma Gideoni anawathamangitsa mpaka kuwagwira. Koma ankhondo awo onse anathawa ndi mantha.
Mootonni Midiyaan lamaan jechuunis Zebaa fi Zalmunaan ni baqatan; Gidewoon garuu ariʼee isaan qabate; loltoota isaaniis gargari bittinneesse.
13 Ndipo Gideoni mwana wa Yowasi, pobwera kuchokera ku nkhondo anadzera njira ya ku chikweza cha Heresi.
Ergasii Gidewoon ilmi Yooʼaash karaa Malkaa Herees baʼee duulaa gale.
14 Kumeneko iye anagwira mnyamata wa ku Sukoti ndipo atamufunsa, mnyamatayo anamulembera mayina a akuluakulu ndi atsogoleri 77 a ku Sukoti.
Innis dargaggeessa Sukoot tokko qabee qorate; dargaggeessi sunis maqaa qondaaltota Sukootii fi maanguddoota magaalattii walumatti maqaa nama torbaatamii torba barreessee kenneef.
15 Kenaka Gideoni anabwera kwa anthu a ku Sukoti ndi kunena kuti, “Awa ndi Zeba ndi Zalimuna, mafumu awiri munkandinena nawo aja kuti, ‘Kodi Zeba ndi Zalimuna wawagonjetsa kale mmene ukuti tiwapatse buledi anthu ako otopawa?’”
Gidewoonis dhufee namoota Sukootiin, “Zebaa fi Zalmunaan isin, ‘Nu namoota kee warra dadhabaniif buddeena kan kenninu ati Zaabiheelii fi Zalmunaa harka keetti galfatteertaa?’ jettanii waaʼee isaanii natti qoostan sun kunoo ti” jedhe.
16 Tsono Gideoni anatenga akuluakulu a mu mzindawo ndipo anagwira matsatsa a minga za mʼchipululu ndi kuwakwapula nawo.
Innis maanguddoota magaalaa sanaa fuudhee qoraattii fi arangamaa gammoojjiitiin adabuudhaan namoota Sukootiitiif barumsa kenne.
17 Anagwetsa nsanja ya ku Penueli ndi kupha amuna onse a mu mzindawo.
Gamoo Phenuuʼeelis jigsee namoota magaalattii fixe.
18 Kenaka anafunsa Zeba ndi Zalimuna kuti, “Kodi anthu a ku Tabori amene munawapha aja anali a maonekedwe otani?” Iwo anayankha kuti, “Anali anthu a maonekedwe ngati inu. Aliyense ankaoneka ngati mwana wa mfumu?” Iwo anayankha kuti, “Anthu ngati inu, aliyense wooneka ngati mwana wa mfumu.”
Ergasiis inni, “Namoonni isin Taabooritti fixxan warra akkamiitii?” jedhee Zebaa fi Zalmunaa gaafate. Isaanis, “Namootuma akka keessanii kanneen hundi isaanii ilmaan mootii fafakkaatanii dha” jedhaniin.
19 Ndipo Gideoni anayankha kuti, “Ndikulumbira pa Mulungu, mukanapanda kuwapha nanenso sindikanakuphani. Ndi abale anga amenewo, ana a amayi anga enieni.”
Gidewoonis deebisee, “Isaan obboloota koo ilmaanuma haadha kootii turan. Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa, utuu isin isaan ajjeesuu baattanii ani isin hin ajjeesu ture” jedhe.
20 Tsono anawuza Yetero, mwana wake wachisamba kuti, “Tiye, ipha anthu amenewa!” Koma chifukwa Yeteri anali wamngʼono sanasolole lupanga lake, popeza anachita mantha.
Innis gara Yeteer ilma isaa hangaftichaatti garagalee, “Kaʼiitii isaan fixi!” jedheen. Yeeteer garuu sababii ijoollee taʼeef sodaatee goraadee isaa hin luqqifanne.
21 Tsono Zeba ndi Zalimuna anawuza Gideoni kuti, “Bwera utiphe ndiwe chifukwa uli ndi mphamvu za munthu wamkulu.” Choncho Gideoni anapita nawapha natenganso zokongoletsera zimene zinali pa makosi a ngamira zawo.
Ergasiis Zebaa fi Zalmunaan, “Kaʼiitii atumti nu ajjeesi; ‘Jabinni namaa akkuma dhagna isaatii’” jedhaniin. Gidewoonis kaʼee isaan ajjeese; faaya morma gaalawwan isaaniis fudhate.
22 Aisraeli anati kwa Gideoni, “Inu muzitilamulira, mwana wanu ndi zidzukulu zanu, chifukwa mwatipulumutsa mʼmanja mwa Amidiyani.”
Namoonni Israaʼelis Gidewooniin, “Ati waan harka Midiyaanotaa jalaa nu baafteef ati, ilmi keetii fi ilmi ilma keetii nu bulchaa” jedhan.
23 Koma Gideoni anawawuza kuti, “Sindidzakulamulirani, mwana wanganso sadzakulamulirani. Koma Yehova ndiye adzakulamulirani.”
Gidewoon garuu, “Ani isin hin bulchu; ilmi koos isin hin bulchu. Waaqayyotu isin bulcha” isaaniin jedhe.
24 Gideoni anatinso, “Ine ndikupemphani chinthu chimodzi. Aliyense wa inu andipatse ndolo zomwe anafunkha ku nkhondo.” (Adani aja anali ndi ndolo zagolide popeza anali Aismaeli).
Innis, “Ani waa tokko isin kadhadha; kunis akka tokkoon tokkoon keessan qooda boojuu keessanii irraa lootii naa kennitanii dha” jedhe. Lootii warqee kaaʼachuun bartee Ishmaaʼeelootaa tureetii.
25 Iwo anayankha kuti, “Ife tikupatsani ndithu ndolozi.” Choncho anayala chinsalu, ndipo aliyense anaponyapo ndolo zimene anafunkha.
Isaanis, “Nu gammachuudhaan kennina” jedhanii deebisan. Kanaafuu wayyaa lafa irra diriirsanii tokkoon tokkoon namaa boojuu isaa irraa lootii itti darbate.
26 Tsono kulemera kwa ndolo zagolide zimene anapereka kunali makilogalamu makumi awiri, osawerengera kulemera kwa mphande, mkanda wamʼkhosi, zovala zapepo za mafumu a Midiyani ndiponso malamba azitsulo za mʼmakosi a ngamira zawo.
Amartiin warqee kan inni kadhate saqilii kuma tokkoo fi dhibba torba yookaan kiiloo giraamii kudha sagalii fi walakkaa ulfaata ture; kunis waan mormatti hidhatan, uffata diimaa dhiilgee kan mootonni Midiyaan uffatanii fi foncaa morma gaalawwan isaanii irra ture hin dabalatu.
27 Gideoni anagwiritsa ntchito golide uja kupanga efodi, ndipo anakamuyika ku mzinda wake ku Ofura. Tsono Aisraeli onse anasiya kupembedza Yehova nayamba kupembedza efodiyo kumeneko. Ichi chinasanduka msampha kwa Gideoni ndi banja lake lonse.
Gidewoonis warqee sanaan dirata tolchee magaalaa itti dhalate Ofraa keessa kaaʼe. Israaʼeloonni hundis achitti efuudicha waaqeffachuudhaan sagaagalan. Kunis Gidewooniif maatii isaatti kiyyoo taʼe.
28 Choncho Amidiyani anagonjetsedwa ndi Aisraeli ndipo sanayeserenso kuwawukira. Ndipo dzikolo linakhala pa mtendere kwa zaka 40 pamene Gideoni anali ndi moyo.
Midiyaanonnis akkasiin fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti moʼataman; lammatas mataa isaanii ol hin qabanne. Biyyattiinis bara Gidewoon keessa waggaa afurtama nagaa argatte.
29 Yeru-Baala mwana wa Yowasi anapita kukakhala kwawo.
Yerub-Baʼaal ilmi Yooʼaash achi jiraachuuf gara mana ofii isaatti deebiʼe.
30 Ana a Gideoni anali 70 popeza anali ndi akazi ambiri.
Inni sababii niitota baayʼee fuudheef ilmaan torbaatama qaba ture.
31 Mdzakazi wake amene anali ku Sekemu, anabereka naye mwana wamwamuna, amene anamutcha Abimeleki.
Saajjatoon isaa kan Sheekem keessa jiraachaa turtes ilma deesseefii turte; innis Abiimelek jedhee isa moggaase.
32 Gideoni mwana wa Yowasi anamwalira atakalamba ndipo anayikidwa mʼmanda a abambo ake, Yowasi ku Ofura mzinda wa Mwabiezeri.
Gidewoon ilmi Yooʼaash bara dheeraa jiraatee duʼe. Innis Ofraa biyya Abiiʼezerootaa keessatti, lafa awwaala abbaa isaa Yooʼaashitti awwaalame.
33 Atangomwalira Gideoni, Aisraeli anayambanso kupembedza Abaala. Iwo anasandutsa Baala-Beriti kukhala mulungu wawo.
Akkuma Gidewoon duʼeen Israaʼeloonni amma illee Baʼaal wajjin sagaagalan. Baʼaal Beriitinis Waaqa isaanii godhatanii
34 Aisraeli sanakumbukirenso Yehova Mulungu wawo amene anawapulumutsa mʼmanja mwa adani awo mbali zonse.
Waaqayyo Waaqa isaanii kan harka diinota isaanii hundumaa jalaa isaan baase sana dagatan.
35 Ndiponso sanachite zinthu zokomera banja la Yeru-Baala (ndiye kuti Gideoni) chifukwa cha zabwino zonse zimene iye anawachitira.
Isaanis maatii Yerub-Baʼaaliif jechuunis Gidewooniif waan gaarii inni isaaniif godhe hunda yaadatanii arjummaa hin gooneef.
