Judges 20
1 All the Israelites from Dan to Beersheba, including the land of Gilead, went and gathered at Mizpah before the Lord. The assembly was united in purpose.
Isala: ili dunu huluane da Gode ba: ma: ne, Misiba moilaiga gilisi. Ilia da Isala: ili soge huluane amoga misi - gagoe (north) moilai Da: ne asili gagoe (south) moilai bai bagade Biasiba amoga doaga: le, huluane da misi. Eso mabe soge Gilia: de amola amoga ilia da misi.
2 The leaders of all the people of every Israelite tribe took their assigned positions in the assembled army of God's people, four hundred thousand soldiers armed with swords.
Amo Gode Ea fi gilisisu amoga Isala: ili ouligisu dunu huluane da misi. Amola emoga ahoasu dadi gagui dunu 400,000 agoane da gilisi.
3 The tribe of Benjamin found out that the Israelites had assembled at Mizpah. The Israelites asked, “Tell us, how could such an evil act have happened?”
Bediamini fi dunu da Isala: ili dunu huluane da Misiba moilaiga gilisi dagoi amo nabi. Isala: ili dunu da amane adole ba: i, “Amo wadela: i hou da habodane hamobela: ?”
4 The Levite, the husband of the woman who had been murdered, explained, “I and my concubine came to spend the night at the town of Gibeah in the territory of Benjamin.
Lifai dunu amo ea gidisedagi uda da medole legei ba: i, amane adole i, “Na gidisedagi uda amola na da Gibia moilai bai bagade Bediamini soge amoga golamusa: asi.
5 The leaders of Gibeah came to attack me at night. They surrounded the house, intending to kill me. They raped my concubine and she died.
Gibia dunu da nama doagala: musa: misini, ania diasu sisiga: i. Ilia da na medole legemusa: dawa: i. Be amo hou fisili, ilia da na uda wadela: lesilalu, e medole legei.
6 I took my concubine and cut her into pieces, and I sent these pieces of her to every part of the country that had been given to Israel, because those men had done something shameful and disgusting in Israel.
Na da ea bogoi da: i hodo lale, dadega: le, amola wa: i afae afae amo Isala: ili fi fagoyale gala ilima iasi. Amo dunu da wadela: idafa hou ninia fi amo ganodini hamoi dagoi.
7 So all of you Israelites have to decide here and now what you're going to do about it!”
Dilia huluane guiguda: da Isala: ili dunu. Amo hou hahamoma: ne, ninia da adi hamoma: bela: ?”
8 Everyone stood up and unitedly declared, “None of us are going home to our tents! None of us are going home to our houses!
Dunu huluane da wa: legadole, amane sia: i, “Ninia huluane, abula diasu ganodini esalebe dunu amola diasudafa amo ganodini esalebe, ninia huluane da nini diasuga bu hame masunu.
9 This is what we're going to do to Gilboah: we will attack it with our forces chosen by lot.
Ninia da agoane hamomu. Ninia da dunu amo Gibiama doagala: musa: ilegema: ne, ado ululuasu hedesu hou hamomu.
10 We'll take ten men from a hundred from all the Israelite tribes, then a hundred from a thousand, then a thousand from ten thousand, to arrange food for the army, so when the troops reach Gibeah in Benjamin, they can pay them back for all these disgusting things they've done in Israel.”
Ninia dunu fi amo ganodini 1/10 (nabuane fifili afadafa gala) da ha: i manu amo dadi gagui dunuma imunu. Eno dunu huluane da Gibia fi ilima se ima: ne masunu.”
11 All the men of Israel were in agreement and gathered to attack the town.
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu huluane da gilisili, bai afadafa hamomusa: gilisi. Amo da Gibia ilima doagala: musa: gilisi.
12 The Israelite tribes also sent men throughout the territory of Benjamin, asking the people, “What are you doing about this terrible evil that has taken place among you?
Isala: ili fi da sia: adola ahoasu dunu amo Bediamini soge huluane amo ganodini asunasi. Ilia da amane adole ba: i, “Amo wadela: idafa hou dilia hamoi, ea bai da adi baila: ?
13 Hand over these wicked men so we can execute them and get rid of this evil from Israel!” But the Benjamites refused to listen to what their fellow Israelites had to say.
Wali amo Gibia wadela: i hamosu dunu ninima ima. Ninia da amo dunu medole legele, amo wadela: i hou amo Isala: ili fi ganodini gala fadegale fasimu.” Be Bediamini dunu da Isala: ili fi eno ilia sia: hame nabi.
14 They left their towns and assembled at Gibeah to go and fight the other Israelites.
Be Bediamini moilai huluane amoga ilia da misini, Gibia moilaiga Isala: ili fi eno, amoga gegemusa: doaga: i dagoi.
15 That day a total of twenty-six thousand men armed with swords were called up from the towns of Benjamin, in addition to the seven hundred seasoned warriors from Gibeah.
16 Making up part of this army were seven hundred experienced soldiers who used their left hands. All of them could fire a slingshot and not miss by even a hair's breadth.
Amo esohaga, ilia moilai bai bagadega ilia da dadi gagui 26,000 agoane amo misa: ne wele sia: i. Amola Gibia esalebe dunu da dadi gagui dunu amo da ilia lobo fofadi amoga gegesu, amo 700 agoane gilisi. Ilia da ga: muga: dadi amoga ilia dialuma hinabo afae amo igiga gala: loba, hamedafa giadofasu.
17 The Israelite army (excluding Benjamin) numbered four hundred thousand seasoned warriors, all armed with swords.
Isala: ili fi oda da dadi gagui 400,000 agoane gilisi.
18 The Israelites went to Bethel and asked God, “Which ones of us should be the first to go and fight the Benjamites?” “Judah is to go first,” the Lord replied.
Isala: ili dunu da Godema sia: ne gadosu sogebi amo Bedele amoga asili, Hina Godema amane adole ba: i, “Adi fi da Bediamini fi hidadea doagala: ma: bela: ?” Hina Gode da bu adole i, “Yuda fi!”
19 The next morning the Israelites left and set up their camp near Gibeah.
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da hahabe asili, Gibia moilai gadenene ilia hawa: i fisu hamone esalu.
20 Then they marched out for battle with the army of Benjamin, taking up their positions to attack Gibeah.
Ilia Bediamini dadi gagui doagala: musa: asili, Gibia moilai da ilia midadi ba: i.
21 But the Benjamites came out of Gibeah and slaughtered twenty-two thousand Israelites on the battlefield that day.
Bediamini dadi gagui da Gibia amoga misini, doagala: le, amo esoga 22,000 Isala: ili dadi gagui dunu medole legei.
22 But the Israelites encouraged one other to be confident, and they took up the same positions they had on the first day.
23 The Israelites went and cried before the Lord until the evening and asked, “Should we go and attack the Benjamites again, our relatives?” “Go and attack them,” the Lord replied.
Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da sia: ne gadosu sogebi amoga asili, Hina Gode ba: ma: ne bagadewane dinanu, asili, daeya doaga: i. Ilia da Hina Godema amane adole ba: i, “Ninia bu eno ninia olalali Bediamini dunu ilima doagala: ma: bela: ?” Hina Gode da bu adole i, “Ama!” Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dadi gagui da ilia dogo denesi ba: i. Ilia da Gibia moilaiga asili, ilia dadi gagui aya agoane Bediamini dunuma gegemusa: lelu.
24 So the second day they advanced to attack the army of Benjamin.
Ilia da enowane Bediamini dunuma doagala: musa: mogodigili asi.
25 However, Benjamites came out of Gibeah once more and slaughtered eighteen thousand Israelites, all armed with swords.
Be musa: gegei defele, Bediamini dunu da Gibia fisili, ilima doagala: le, Isala: ili dadi gagui 18,000 (ili da noga: le gegema: ne olelei) amo medole lelegei dagoi ba: i.
26 Then all the Israelites and all their army went to Bethel, and sat crying there before the Lord. That day they fasted until evening and gave burnt offerings and friendship offerings to the Lord.
Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu huluane da Bedele moilaiga didiga: musa: asi. Ilia Hina Gode ba: ma: ne ha: i mae nawane esaloba, daeya gamai. Ilia Hina Godema Hahawane Gilisili Olofole Iasu gobele salasu hamoi amola gobele salasu ohe oda gogo gobele sali.
27 The Israelites asked the Lord what to do. At that time the Ark of God's Agreement was kept there.
28 Phinehas, son of Eleazar and grandson of Aaron, was the priest. The Israelites asked the Lord, “Should go and we fight again against our relatives from Benjamin, or not?” “Yes, go! Tomorrow I will hand them over to you,” the Lord replied.
Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili da amo esoga Bedele sogebi galu. Finia: se (Ilia: isa ea egefe amola Elane ea aowa) da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili ouligisu. Isala: ili dunu da Hina Godema bu adole ba: i, “Ninia da ninia olalali Bediamini dunu ilima bu gegemusa: masa: bela: ? O ninia fisima: bela: ?” Hina Gode da bu adole i, “Gegema! Aya Na da fidimuba: le, dilia da ili hasalimu.”
29 Then the Israelites set up an ambush around Gibeah.
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da dadi gagui dunu Gibia moilaiga sisiga: le, wamoaligima: ne asunasi.
30 On the third day they took up the same positions they had as before.
Amalalu, eso osodaga, ilia musa: hou defele, ilia da Bediamini dunuma doagala: musa: asili, Gibia ea midadi dada: lei.
31 The Benjamites came out to attack them and were lured away from the town as they began to kill Israelites as they had before. Some thirty Israelites died on the battlefield and along the roads, the one that goes towards Bethel and the other that goes back towards Gibeah.
Bediamini dunu da gegemusa: , moilai gadili asili, Isala: ili dunu sefasimusa: fa: no bobogei. Musa: agoane ilia da umi soge Bedele ahoasu amola Gibia ahoasu la: ididili amo ganodini Isala: ili dunu muni medole legelalu. Ilia da Isala: ili dadi gagui30agoane medole legei.
32 “We're defeating them, just like before,” the Benjamites shouted. But the Israelites said, “Let's run away from them and lure them away from the town towards the roads.”
Bediamini dunu ilisu amane sia: i, “Defea! Ninia da musa: agoane, Isala: ili dunu hasali.” Be Isala: ili dunu da ili gadili, logoga oule asili, musa: medole legemusa: dawa: i galu.
33 The main army of Israelites left where they were and took up positions at Baal-tamar, while those in the ambush west of Gibeah charged out to attack from where they had been hiding.
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dadi gagui gilisisudafa da hobeale, bu Ba: ile Da: ima sogega bu gilisi. Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu amo da Gibia sisiga: i, da ilia wamoaligisu gele sogebi ganodini galu amo fisili, Gibia amoma doagala: musa: hehenai.
34 Ten thousand seasoned Israelite warriors attacked Gibeah, and the fighting was so intense the Benjamites didn't realize they were on the brink of disaster.
Amo dunu idi da 10,000. Ilia da Isala: ili fi amo ganodini dadi gagui noga: iwane ilegei. Ilia da Gibia doagala: i amola gegesu da gasa bagade ba: i. Bediamini dunu da fofogadigi. Ilia gugunufinisisu eso da doaga: i dagoi ilia hame dawa: i galu.
35 So the Lord defeated Benjamin before Israel. That day the Israelites killed twenty-five thousand one hundred Benjamites, all armed with swords.
Amo esoha, Hina Gode da fidibiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da Bediamini dadi gagui dunu ili hasalasi. Ilia da dunu 25,100 agoane medole legei dagoi.
36 The Benjamites saw that they were defeated. The Israelites had fallen back before the Benjamites because they were confident the ambush they had put in place near Gibeah would be successful.
Amola Bediamini dunu da dafai dagoi, ilisu dawa: i. Isala: ili dadi gagui gilisisu bagade da Bediamini dunu amoba: le hobea: i. Bai ilia dawa: i da dunu ilia da Gibia sisiga: le wamoaligimusa: asunasi, amo da ili fidimusa: ilia dawa: i.
37 The men from the ambush raced to attack the town, and they killed everyone in it.
Amo dunu da ilia wamoaligisu fisili, hedolowane Gibia moilaiga hehenai. Ilia da dunu huluane amo moilai ganodini esalu, medole legei dagoi.
38 The agreement was that they would send up a great cloud of smoke to show the town had fallen.
Isala: ili dadi gagui gilisisu bagade amola wamoaligisu dunu da musa: gilisili sia: daloba, dawa: ma: ne hahamosu agoane hahamoi. Ilia da lalu mobi mogomogoi agoane bagade Gibia amoga heda: lebe ba: beba: le,
39 The Israelite army turned to attack the Benjamites, who had already killed about thirty Israelites. The Benjamites were saying, “We're completely defeating them, just like the first battle!”
Isala: ili dadi gagui da Bediamini dunu ilima hobealalu, ilia da sinidigimu sia: i. Amo hou da doaga: loba, Bediamini dunu da Isala: ili dunu 30 agoane medole legei dagoi ba: i. Bediamini dunu da amane sia: i, “Defea! Ninia da musa: agoane defele Isala: ili dunuma bu hasali dagoi.”
40 However, when the Israelites saw the columns of smoke rising heavenwards to form a great cloud over the whole of the town,
Amalalu, dawa: ma: ne hahamosu amo lalu mobi mogomogoi agoane amo Gibia amoga heda: lebe ba: i. Bediamini dunu da beba: le, fofogadigili, moilai huluane laluga nenanebe ba: i.
41 they turned on their enemies. The Benjamites were horrified when they saw it and realized they were doomed.
Amalalu, Isala: ili dadi gagui da sinidigi. Bediamini dunu da bagadewane beda: i. Ilia da dafai dagoi, ilisu da dawa: i galu.
42 They turned and ran from the Israelites towards the desert, but the battle caught up with them, and the Israelites also killed those who left the towns on the way.
Ilia da Isala: ili dunu amoba: le hobea: i. Be ilia da sani amo ganodini agoane ba: i. Ba: i da Isala: ili dunu amo Gibia moilaiga gadili ahoanebe da ilia la: idi amo doagala: i. Amalalu, ilia da Bediamini dunu wadela: lesi dagoi.
43 Chasing after the Benjamites, the Israelites surrounded them, easily overtaking them east of Gibeah.
Isala: ili dunu da Bediamini dunu amo sani ganodini gagui galu. Ilia da mae fisili medole legelalu, amo dunu sefasili, sogebi amo Gibia ea eso mabadi la: ididili gala amoga doaga: i.
44 Eighteen thousand Benjamites were killed, all of them courageous warriors.
Isala: ili dunu da Bediamini dadi gagui noga: iwane amo 18,000 agoane medole legei.
45 Some of the Benjamites that were left ran towards Pomegranate Rock in the desert, and the Israelites killed another five thousand men on the way. They chased another group of Benjamites as far as Gidom and killed another thousand.
Bediamini dunu hame bogoi amo da hobeale, umi soge amo Limone Gele gadenene amoga hobea: i. Be Isala: ili da ilima doagala: le, 5,000 eno logoga medole legei. Ilia da bu sefasili, Ga: idoume sogebi amoga doaga: le, 2,000 eno medole legei.
46 So that day twenty-five thousand Benjamite were killed, all armed with swords and all courageous warriors.
Amo esoga, Isala: ili dunu da Bediamini dadi gagui dunu noga: iwane, huluane 25,000 agoane medole legei.
47 There were six hundred who ran away to Pomegranate Rock in the desert and they stayed there four months.
Be dunu 600 agoane da hobeale, Limone Gele soge amoga asili, Isala: ili dunu da ili hame medole legei. Amo sogega, ilia da oubi biyaduyale gala esalu.
48 The Israelites went back into the territory of the Benjamites, and going from town to town, they killed everything: people, animals, everything they found. Then they burned down every town on their way.
Isala: ili dunu da sinidigili, Bediamini fi dunu eno huluane medole legei. Ilia da dunu, uda, mano amola ohe fi huluane medole lelegei dagoi. Ilia da moilai huluane amo soge ganodini dialu amo laluga ulagisi.
