< Judges 6 >
1 Afterwarde the children of Israel committed wickednesse in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord gaue them into the handes of Midian seuen yeres.
Israel ten Pakai mitmun thilse jeng anabol tauvin ahi. Hijeh chun Pakaiyin amaho chu kum sagi sungin Midian mite khutna ana pedoh kittan ahi.
2 And the hand of Midian preuayled against Israel, and because of the Midianites the children of Israel made them dennes in the mountaines, and caues, and strong holdes.
Midiante chu akhoh behseh jengun ahi leh Israel techun ama hole aki hinso theina dingun molchung hole songkoho chuleh kulpi hoilai lai jah kisel nading akisem mun ahi.
3 When Israel had sowen, then came vp the Midianites, the Amalekites, and they of the East, and came vpon them,
Israel’ten chang le mim akitu teng’u le Midian mite le Amalek mite chuleh solam mite ahungun Israelte chu ahung ahung delkhum jiuvin ahi.
4 And camped by them, and destroyed the fruite of the earth, euen til thou come vnto Azzah, and left no foode for Israel, neither sheepe, nor oxe, nor asse.
Amaho chu agamsung a chun apansaden jiuvin, alousohga ho asuhsetpeh jiuvin, Gaza changeijin Israel te gancha ho kelngoi ho le kelcha ho chuleh asangan hou achom peh jiuvin, anehdiu imacha anakhen pehji pouvin ahi.
5 For they went vp, and their cattel, and came with their tentes as grashoppers in multitude: so that they and their camels were without number: and they came into the land to destroy it.
Hiche galmi ho chu agancha houleh aponbuh’u toh ahung kon jiuvin khaokho te jat aphaovin, asangongsao tamtah simsenlou ho chutoh ahung tol lutjiuvin ahi. Amaho chun agamsung chu abah gam hel tokah’un aumden jiuvin ahi.
6 So was Israel exceedingly impouerished by the Midianites: therefore the children of Israel cryed vnto the Lord.
Hitichun Israel techu Midian’te jeh in kel in aum jitauvin ahi; chuphat chun Israel te chi Pakai kommah panpi ngehin ana kapjah jeng tauvin ahi.
7 And when the children of Israel cryed vnto the Lord because of the Midianites,
Midian ten asuhgenthei jeh uva aka jah jeng phat’un
8 The Lord sent vnto the children of Israel a Prophet, who sayd vuto them, Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, I haue brought you vp from Egypt, and haue brought you out of the house of bondage,
Pakaiyin Israelte kommah themgao khat anasoltan ahi. Aman hi tin anaseije, “Hichehi Pakai Israel te Pathenin asei ahi, ‘Ken nangho Egypt’a nasoh channaova kon na kahin puidoh u nahi tauve.
9 And I haue deliuered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all that oppressed you, and haue cast them out before you, and giuen you their land.
Egypt mite a konleh nang ho nasugenthei hou jousea kon nin kahin huhdoh’u nahitauve, Keiman nagal mite chu kadel mang pehun hiche gam hi nangho kapeh’u nahi tauve.
10 And I sayde vnto you, I am the Lord your God: feare not the gods of the Amorites in whose lande you dwell: but ye haue not obeyed my voyce.
Keima hi Pakai na Pathen u kahi, tua nachon naova agam mi Amor mite pathen ho hi nahou louhel diu ahi, kana tin ahi, ahinlah nang hon kasei na ngai pouvin ahi,” ati.
11 And the Angell of the Lord came, and sate vnder the oke which was in Ophrah, that perteined vnto Ioash the father of the Ezrites, and his sonne Gideon threshed wheate by the winepresse, to hide it from the Midianites.
Hichejou chun Pakai Vantil chu Ophrah kiti munna thingphung lentah noiya chun ahung touvin ahi. Hiche Ophrah kitihi Abiezer phungmi Joash kitipa’a ahi. Joash chapa Gideon chu lengpi theiheh na sung a chu suhlou chang anavoh a Midian mite’a konna achaang chu sel ana go in ahi
12 Then the Angel of the Lord appeared vnto him, and said vnto him, The Lord is with thee, thou valiant man.
Pakai Vantil chu ahung ki lah’in ajah a, “Mi hat gal-hang nang ma Pakaiyin nang na umpi jinge,” ahintin ahi.
13 To whome Gideon answered, Ah my Lord, if the Lord be with vs, why then is all this come vpon vs? and where be all his miracles which our fathers tolde vs of, and sayd, Did not the Lord bring vs out of Egypt? but now the Lord hath forsaken vs, and deliuered vs into the hand of the Midianites.
Gideon’in adonbut in “Hepu, Pakaiyin ei umpiu va ahi leh hitobang hahsat nahi kathoh diu ham? Kapu kapateuvin, Pakaiyin thilkidang anatohdoh peh eina seipeh hochu hoilang geiyah hitam? Pakaiyin Egypt gamma konna eina puidoh’u hitalou ham? Ahin tunvang Pathen in einuse tauvin chule Midian mite khutna eipehdoh’u ahitai,” ati.
14 And the Lord looked vpon him, and sayd, Goe in this thy might, and thou shalt saue Israel out of the handes of the Midianites: haue not I sent thee?
Hiche jouchun Pakaiyin amalam ahin ngan, “Nathahatna chu mangchan lang Midiante a kon in Israelte chu gahuhdoh tan, hiche dinga chu keiman nanghi kasol nahi,” ati.
15 And he answered him, Ah my Lord, whereby shall I saue Israel? beholde, my father is poore in Manasseh, and I am the least in my fathers house.
Ahin, Gideonin adonbutnin, “Pakai ken Israel chu iti kahuhdoh joudingham? Kaphung jonghi Manasseh phung lah a alhasam pen ahin chuleh keima tah jeng jonghi kainsung lah uva aneopen kahibouve” ati.
16 Then the Lord sayd vnto him, I wil therefore be with thee, and thou shalt smite the Midianites, as one man.
Pakaiyin Gideon komma chun, “Keiman nanga kaumpi jingding ahi. Chuleh nangman mikhatseh toh kisatto banga Midiante chu nasuhmang soh helding ahi,” ati.
17 And he answered him, I pray thee, if I haue founde fauour in thy sight, then shewe me a signe, that thou talkest with me.
Gibeon nin adonbutnin, “Nangin neikithopi mong ding ahileh Pakaiyin kakoma hin thu asei mong monge ti kihettheina dingin melchihna khat neipen,” ati.
18 Depart not hence, I pray thee, vntil I come vnto thee, and bring mine offring, and lay it before thee. And he sayde, I will tary vntill thou come againe.
“Keiman kahung kile kitna nakomma maichamma toding kahin choi tokahin anapotdoh hih beh’in” ati. Hichun Amanjong “nahung kilekit kahsen hikomma hin anaum jing nange,” ati.
19 Then Gideon went in, and made ready a kidde, and vnleauened bread of an Ephah of floure, and put the flesh in a basket, and put the broth in a pot, and brought it out vnto him vnder the oke, and presented it.
Gideon gangtah’in ainlang’a achen, kelcha dongkhat aga hon’in, changbong pochakhat alan, cholsollou changlhah themkhat aga kangin ahi. Hiche jouchun asahon chu pochakhat na ahin dommin atuijong belkhat nah ahin choijin thingphung len noija anatou Vantil kommah aga luipeh tan ahi.
20 And the Angell of God saide vnto him, Take the flesh and the vnleauened bread, and lay them vpon this stone, and powre out the broth: and he did so.
Pathen Vantil chun akommah, “Sa me kihon chuleh cholsolou changlhah chu songpi chunga chun koijinlang chuleh, satuichu achungah sunglhan,” ati. Chuin Gideon chun akiseipeh bangchun abollin ahi.
21 Then the Angell of the Lord put forth the ende of the staffe that he had in his hand, and touched the flesh and the vnleauened bread: and there arose vp fire out of the stone, and consumed the flesh and the vnleauened bread: so the Angel of the Lord departed out of his sight.
Hiche jouchun Pakai Vantillin akhutna achoi atenggol mong hemmachun kelchasa le changlhah chu agah tongkhan ahileh songpi’a konchun mei ahungkou doh’in ahin choiho jouse chu akavam tan ahi. Hiche jouchun Pakai vantil chu amangtan ahi.
22 And when Gideon perceiued that it was an Angel of the Lord, Gideon then sayde, Alas, my Lord God: for because I haue seene an Angell of the Lord face to face, I shall die.
Chutah chun Gideonin jong Pakai vantil mong mong ahinai ti ahechen tai, hichejeh chun Gideon in hitin asei tai, “Pakai, keima amangthah kahitai, ajeh chu keiman Pakai vantil chu kimaiton kakimupin ahi,” ati.
23 And the Lord said vnto him, Peace be vnto thee: feare not, thou shalt not die.
Hiche Pakaiyin adonbutnin, “Lungmong in, Imacha tiponte, kicha hih in nathi louding ahi,” ati.
24 Then Gideon made an altar there vnto the Lord, and called it, Iehouah shalom: vnto this day it is in Ophrah, of the father of the Ezrites.
Chuphat’in, Gideonin Pakai maicham khat asemmin amin Yahweh Shalom asah in ahi (Hichu Pakai hi chamna ahi tina ahi). Hiche maicham chu Abeizer phung mite gam Ophrah munnah tuni geijin aum jing nalaijin ahi.
25 And the same night the Lord sayd vnto him, Take thy fathers yong bullocke, and an other bullocke of seuen yeeres olde, and destroy the altar of Baal that thy father hath, and cut downe the groue that is by it,
Hiche jan machun Pakaiyin Gideon kommah hitin aseipeh tai, “Napa gancha lah a kon in kum sagi lhingsa bongchal anichanna chu hinkaiyin lang, napan anatundoh Baal maicham chu volhu in lang chuleh akomma kitung Asherah doikhom chu satlha jengin.
26 And build an altar vnto the Lord thy God vpon the top of this rocke, in a plaine place: and take the seconde bullocke, and offer a burnt offringe with the woode of the groue, which thou shalt cut downe.
Chujouteng leh Pakai na Pathen maicham khat hiche thinglhang leh amuntheng’ah khun tungdoh inlang, songho chu phatah in goltoh inlang, Asherah doikhom nasat lhuh chu meitina’n mangin lang bongchal chu maicham chunga chun pumgo thilto in tohdoh in,” ati.
27 Then Gideon tooke tenne men of his seruants, and did as ye Lord bade him: but because he feared to doe it by day for his fathers housholde, and the men of the citie, he did it by night.
Hijeh chun Gideonin alhachaho mi som akipuijin Pakaiyin bollin ati bang bang chun aboltan ahi. Ahinlah khopi miho leh apa insungmi adangho akichat jeh in jannin abollin ahi.
28 And when the men of the citie arose early in the morning, beholde, the altar of Baal was broken, and the groue cut downe that was by it, and the seconde bullocke offred vpon the altar that was made.
Ajing jingkah matah in khopi miteho chu ahungtho phat’un Baal doikhom maicham chu anakivo lhutan chuleh akomma kitung Asherah doikhom jong chu ana kisat lhutan ahi, ti amudoh tauvin ahi. Hicheho khelchun maicham thah khat anakitung doh in hiche chung chun bongchal pumgo thiltoa ana kitohdohna jongchu amu uvin ahi.
29 Therefore they saide one to another, Who hath done this thing? and when they inquired and asked, they saide, Gideon the sonne of Ioash hath done this thing.
Mipi hochu khatle khat akihouvin “Koibol ahidem atiuvin ahi?” Hitia akihoutoh leova ahin kholchil phat’un Joash chapa Gideon ahiti ahin hedoh tauve.
30 Then the men of the citie said vnto Ioash, Bring out thy sonne, that hee may dye: for he hath destroyed the altar of Baal, and hath also cut downe the groue that was by it.
Khopi mite hochun Joash kommah “Nachapa chu hin puidoh in, Baal maicham asuhset jehleh Asherah doikhom asat lhuh jeh a amahi thitei teiding ahi,” atiuve.
31 And Ioash said vnto all that stood by him, Will ye pleade Baals cause? or will ye saue him? he that will contend for him, let him dye or the morning. If he be God, let him pleade for himselfe against him that hath cast downe his altar.
Ahinlah Joash chun ama ahung nokhum mipi hochu ale senjah jengin, “Ipi dinga nanghon Baal doi ding a naseipeh uva nahuh’u ham? Koi hileh ama huhna a thusei pen penchu jingle jingkah langa kithat ding ahi. Baal hi pathen dihtah mong ahileh ama chungthu aman kisei nante, chuleh ama maicham asusepen penchu aman kisuhmang nah hihding ham?” ati.
32 And in that day was Gideon called Ierubbaal, that is, Let Baal pleade for himselfe because he hath broken downe his altar.
Hijeh chun hicheni apat chun Gideon chu Jerubbaal asah taove. Hichun “Baal chun amapa chunga aphu kilah hen” tina ahi. Ajeh chu aman Baal maicham ana vohchim ahi.
33 Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and they of ye East, were gathered together, aud went and pitched in the valley of Izreel.
Hiche jouchun Midian mite le Amalek mite chuleh solam mipite hochu apangkhom’un Israel te satdingin Jordan vadung ahung galkaijin Jezreel phaichamma chun akikhom uvin ngahmun akisem tauvin ahi.
34 But the Spirit of the Lord came vpon Gideon, and he blew a trumpet, and Abiezer was ioyned with him.
Hichun Pakai Lhagao chu Gideon chunga apansatan ahi. Aman saki a kisem sumkon chu amut’in galsat ding mi akou khommin ahileh Abiezer phung mihochu ama kommah ahung tauvin ahi.
35 And he sent messengers thorowout al Manasseh, which also was ioyned with him, and he sent messengers vnto Asher, and to Zebulun and to Naphtali, and they came vp to meete them.
Aman thupo miho chu asollin Manasseh, Asher, Zebulun leh Naphtali galsat ding miho chu aga kousah in ahileh amaho abonchan ahung kon tauvin ahi.
36 Then Gideon said vnto God, If thou wilt saue Israel by mine hand, as thou hast sayd,
Hichun Gideonin Pathen hengah ataovin, “Nangin nanasei banga keima hi Israel te jouse huhdoh dinga neimanchah mong mong ding ahileh,
37 Beholde, I wil put a fleece of wooll in the threshing place: if the dewe come on the fleece onely, and it be drie vpon all the earth, then shall I be sure, that thou wilt saue Israel by mine hand, as thou hast said.
Hitichun neihetchet sah in, keiman tujan tengleh amulnei kelngoivun hi changvohna phol chunga kakoiding ahi. Hiche kelngoivun hi jingkah tengleh daitwi anachapnou inlang amavang tol hi anagotna hileh nasei banga chu Israel tehi huhdohna dinga neimanchah got ahite kahet chet nading hihen,” ati.
38 And so it was: for he rose vp earely on the morow, and thrust the fleece together, and wringed the dew out of the fleece, and filled a bowle of water.
Hitobang chetchun thilchu anasoh doh tan ahi. Ajing jingkah chun Gideon amatah in athoudoh in kelngoivun chu aheh a ahileh twi khonkhat dimset ahungdoh in ahi.
39 Againe, Gideon sayde vnto God, Be not angry with me, that I may speake once more: let me prooue once againe, I pray thee, with the fleece: let it now be drie onely vpon the fleece, and let dewe be vpon all the ground.
Chujouchun Gideonin Pathen kommah hitin asei kit’e, “Neilunghan hihbeh in, thilkhat kathumbe nom nalaije. Hiche kelngoivun hi mangcha a hetchetna khat neipehbe nahlai ding kadeije. Tuchung hin hiche kelngoivun hi gotsah inlang, vella tol hi daitwi anachetsah in,” atin ahi.
40 And God did so that same night: for it was drie vpon the fleece onely, and there was dewe on all the ground.
Hiche jan jong chun Pathen’in Gideon ngeh bangchun ana bolkit peh kit in, kelngoivun agotsah in chule tollhang bou chu daitwi in ana chapkot in ahi.
