< Judges 7 >

1 And Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, arose early, and all the people that were with him, and they encamped beside the spring Harod; and he had the camp of Midian on the north by the hill of Moreh in the valley.
Yerub-Baʼaal namichi Gidewoon jedhamu sunii fi namoonni isaa hundi ganama kaʼanii burqaa Harood bira qubatan. Qubanni Midiyaanotaa iddoo namoonni Gidewoon qubatan sanaan karaa kaabaatiin gaara Mooree bira sulula keessa ture.
2 And Jehovah said to Gideon, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give Midian into their hand, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me.
Waaqayyos Gidewooniin akkana jedhe; “Akka ani Midiyaanota dabarsee harka isaaniitti hin kennineef Israaʼeloonni si wajjin jiran akka male baayʼee dha. Akka sabni Israaʼel, ‘Jabina kootu na oolche’ jedhee natti hin koorreef,
3 And now proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whoever is timid and afraid, let him go back and turn from mount Gilead. And there went back of the people twenty-two thousand; and there remained ten thousand.
‘Namni sodaatee hollate kam iyyuu Tulluu Giliʼaad dhiisee gara mana isaatti haa deebiʼu’ jedhiitii amma sabatti himi.” Kanaafuu namoonni kuma digdamii lama deebiʼanii kuma kudhan achitti hafan.
4 And Jehovah said to Gideon, Still the people are many; bring them down to the water, and I will try them for thee there, and it shall be, that of whom I shall say unto thee, This shall go with thee, the same shall go with thee; and of whomsoever I shall say unto thee, This shall not go with thee, the same shall not go.
Waaqayyo garuu Gidewooniin akkana jedhe; “Amma iyyuu namoota baayʼeetu jira. Isaan fudhadhuutii gara bishaaniitti gad buʼi; ani achitti isaan gargari siif foʼa. Yoo ani, ‘Inni kun si wajjin ni deema’ jedhe, inni ni deema; yoo ani, ‘Inni kun si wajjin hin deemu’ jedhe garuu inni hin deemu.”
5 And he brought down the people to the water; and Jehovah said to Gideon, Every one that lappeth of the water with his tongue, as a dog lappeth, him shalt thou set by himself; likewise every one that boweth down on his knees to drink.
Kanaafuu Gidewoon namoota gara bishaaniitti gad buuse. Waaqayyos achitti, “Warra akkuma sareetti arrabaan bishaan dhugan, warra jilbeenfatanii dhugan irraa gargari baasi” isaan jedhe.
6 And the number of them that lapped, with their hand to their mouth, were three hundred men; and all the rest of the people bowed down on their knees to drink water.
Namoonni dhibba sadii konyee isaaniitiin waraabbatanii dhugan. Warri hafan hundi garuu dhuguuf jilbeenfatan.
7 And Jehovah said to Gideon, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and give Midian into thy hand; and let all the people go every man to his place.
Waaqayyo Gidewooniin, “Ani namoota harka isaaniitiin dhugan dhibba sadan kanaan si furee Midiyaanota dabarsee harka keetti nan kenna. Warri kaan hundi gara qeʼee isaaniitti haa deebiʼan” jedheen.
8 And they took the victuals of the people in their hand, and their trumpets; and all the men of Israel he sent away, every man to his tent, but retained the three hundred men. Now the camp of Midian was beneath him in the valley.
Kanaafuu Gidewoon akka Israaʼeloonni hafan hundi gara dunkaana isaaniitti deebiʼan godhee namoota dhibba sadan garuu turfate; isaanis warra kaan irraa galaa fi malakata fudhatan. Qubanni Midiyaanotaas Gidewooniin gad sulula keessa ture.
9 And it came to pass in that night, that Jehovah said to him, Arise, go down to the camp; for I have given it into thy hand.
Halkanuma sana Waaqayyo Gidewooniin akkana jedhe; “Kaʼiitii qubata sanatti gad buʼi; ani dabarsee harka keetti siifin kennaatii.
10 And if thou fear to go down, go thou with Phurah thy servant down to the camp;
Ati yoo gad buʼuu sodaatte garuu tajaajilaa kee Fuuraa wajjin gara qubata sanaatti gad buʼiitii
11 and thou shalt hear what they say; and afterwards shall thy hand be strengthened, and thou shalt go down unto the camp. And he went down with Phurah his servant to the outside of the armed men that were in the camp.
waan isaan dubbachaa jiran dhagaʼi. Sana booddee qubata sana rukutuudhaaf jabina ni argatta.” Kanaafuu innii fi tajaajilaan isaa Fuuraan gara moggaa qubata sanaatti gad buʼan.
12 And Midian and Amalek and all the children of the east lay along in the valley as locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand upon the sea-shore for multitude.
Midiyaanonni, Amaaleqoonnii fi namoonni baʼa biiftuutii dhufan hundi akkuma hoomaa hawwaannisaa walitti gobbatanii sululicha keessa qubatanii turan. Baayʼinni gaalawwan isaaniis akkuma cirracha qarqara galaanaa lakkoobsa hin qabu ture.
13 And Gideon came, and behold, a man was telling a dream to his fellow; and he said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and lo, a cake of barley-bread tumbled into the camp of Midian, and came to the tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it; and the tent lay along.
Gidewoonis utuu namichi tokko waaʼee abjuu isaa michuu ofii isaatti himuu achi gaʼe. Namichi sunis akkana jedhe; “Ani abjuu tokko nan abjoodhe; kunoo maxinoon garbuu tokko gangalachaa dhufee qubata Midiyaanotaa irra buʼe. Innis dhufee akka dunkaanni jiguuf humnaan dhaʼe; dunkaanni sunis ni kufe.”
14 And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, the man of Israel: God hath given into his hand Midian and all the host.
Michuun isaas deebisee, “Kun goraadee Gidewoon ilma Yooʼaash Israaʼelichaati malee waan biraa miti. Waaqnis Midiyaanotaa fi guutummaa qubata sanaa dabarsee harka Gidewoonitti kenneera” jedhe.
15 And it came to pass when Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, that he worshipped. And he returned into the camp of Israel, and said, Arise; for Jehovah hath given into your hand the camp of Midian.
Gidewoon yommuu abjuu sanaa fi hiikkaa isaa dhagaʼetti Waaqaaf sagade. Gara qubata Israaʼelootaattis deebiʼee, “Kaʼaa! Waaqayyo qubata Midiyaanotaa dabarsee harka keessanitti kenneeraa” jedhe.
16 And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet in every man's hand, and empty pitchers, and torches within the pitchers.
Innis namoota dhibba sadan garee sadiitti qooduudhaan, harka hunda isaaniitti malakataa fi okkotee guci keessa jiru qabachiise.
17 And he said to them, Look on me, and do likewise; behold, when I come to the extremity of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so shall ye do.
Gidewoonis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Na ilaalaa; waan ani hojjedhus hojjedhaa; yommuu ani qarqara qubatichaatti dhiʼaadhutti qalbeeffadhaatii waanuma ani godhu godhaa.
18 And when I blow with a trumpet, I and all that are with me, ye also shall blow the trumpets around the whole camp, and shall say, For Jehovah and for Gideon!
Yeroo anii fi warri na wajjin jiran hundii malakata keenya afuufnutti, isinis naannoo qubatichaa hundatti afuufaatii, ‘Waaqayyoof, Gidewooniifis’ jedhaa iyyaa.”
19 And Gideon, and the hundred men that were with him, came to the outside of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch; and they had but newly set the watch; and they blew the trumpets, and broke the pitchers that were in their hands.
Gidewoonii fi namoonni isa wajjin turan dhibbi sun akkuma waardiyyoonni wal geeddaraniin jalqaba eegumsa walakkaa halkaniitti qarqara qubata sanaa bira gaʼan. Isaanis malakata isaanii afuufanii okkotee harka isaanii jiru caccabsan.
20 And the three companies blew the trumpets, and broke in pieces the pitchers, and held the torches in their left hand, and the trumpets in their right hand for blowing, and cried, The sword of Jehovah and of Gideon!
Gareen sadanuu malakata isaanii afuufanii okkotee harka isaanii jiru caccabsan. Harka bitaatti guca, harka mirgaatti immoo malakata afuufan qabatanii, “Goraadee Waaqayyootii fi Gidewoon!” jedhanii iyyan.
21 And they stood every man in his place round about the camp; and all the host ran, and cried out, and fled.
Tokkoon tokkoon namaas naannoo qubatichaatti iddoo kennameef qabate; Midiyaanonni hundis iyyaa baqatan.
22 And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and Jehovah set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout the camp. And the host fled to Beth-shittah towards Zererah, to the border of Abel-meholah, by Tabbath.
Yeroo malakanni dhibbi sadan sun afuufametti Waaqayyo akka namni qubata sana keessa ture tokko tokkoon goraadee isaa walitti luqqifatu godhe; raayyaan waraanaas karaa Zereeraatiin gara Beet Shiixaatti, isa biras darbanii hamma daarii Abeel Mehoolaa ishee Xabaati bira jirtu sanaatti baqatanii deeman.
23 And the men of Israel were called together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after Midian.
Israaʼeloonnis Niftaalem, Aasheerii fi Minaasee hundumaa keessaa waamanii Midiyaanota of dura ariʼan.
24 And Gideon sent messengers throughout mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against Midian, and take before them the waters unto Beth-barah, and the Jordan. And all the men of Ephraim were called together, and took the waters unto Beth-barah, and the Jordan.
Gidewoonis guutummaa biyya gaaraa Efreemitti ergamoota ergee, “Kottaa Midiyaanotatti duulaatii bishaanota hamma Beet Baaraatti jiranii fi laga Yordaanos isaan dursaatii qabadhaa” jedhe. Kanaafuu namoonni Efreem hundi baʼanii bishaanota hamma Beet Baaraatti jiranii fi laga Yordaanos qabatan.
25 And they took two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew Oreb upon the rock Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb; and they pursued Midian, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.
Akkasumas hooggantoota Midiyaanotaa lamaan jechuunis Hereebii fi Zeʼeebin qabatan. Hereeb kattaa Hereeb biratti Zeʼeeb immoo iddoo wayinii itti cuunfan kan Zeʼeebiitti ajjeesan. Isaanis Midiyaanota ariʼanii mataa Hereebii fi mataa Zeʼeeb gara gama laga Yordaanos Gidewoonitti fidan.
