< Judges 7 >
1 Then Ierubbaal (who is Gideon) rose vp early, and all the people that were with him, and pitched beside the well of Harod, so that the hoste of the Midianites was on the Northside of them in the valley by the hill of Moreh.
Jerub-Baal (Gideon) loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk moe, angmah ih kaminawk boih hoi nawnto Harod tui longhaih ahmuen ah atai o; Midian kaminawk loe nihcae ataihaih aluek bang, Moreh mae taeng ih tangtling ah atai o.
2 And the Lord said vnto Gideon, The people that are with thee, are too many for me to giue the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel make their vaunt against me, and say, Mine hand hath saued mee.
Angraeng mah Gideon khaeah, Midian kaminawk nangcae ban ah kang paek hanah, kami paroeai na pop o vop; to tiah nangcae khae kang paek nahaeloe, kaimacae ban thacakhaih hoiah ni kaimacae hoi kaimacae kam hlong o tiah, Israel kaminawk mah ka nuiah amoek o moeng tih.
3 Now therefore proclaime in the audience of the people, and say, Who so is timerous or fearefull, let him returne, and depart earely from mount Gilead. And there returned of the people which were at mount Gilead, two and twentie thousand: so ten thousand remayned.
To pongah vaihi kaminawk khaeah, Mi kawbaktih doeh zithaih tawn kami loe Gilead mae hoi amlaem o roep nasoe, tiahg thui paeh, tiah a naa. To pongah kami sang pumphae hnetto amlaem o moe, kami sang hato tang.
4 And the Lord said vnto Gideon, The people are yet too many: bring them downe vnto the water, and I will try them for thee there: and of whome I say vnto thee, This man shall goe with thee, the same shall go with thee: and of whomsoeuer I say vnto thee, This man shall not goe with thee, the same shall not go.
Toe Angraeng mah Gideon khaeah, Kami na pop o parai vop pongah, tui ohhaih ahmuen ah caeh haih ah, to ah nihcae to kang tanoek pae han; nang hoi nawnto caeh tih, tiah kang thuih ih kami to ni, nang hoi nawnto caeh tih; toe nang hoi nawnto caeh mak ai, tiah kang thuih ih kami loe, nang hoi nawnto caeh mak ai, tiah a naa.
5 So he brought downe the people vnto the water. And the Lord sayd vnto Gideon, As many as lap the water with their tongues, as a dog lappeth, them put by themselues, and euery one that shall bow downe his knees to drinke, put apart.
To pongah Gideon mah kaminawk to tui ohhaih ahmuen ah caeh haih; Angraeng mah anih khaeah, ui baktiah palai hoi tui nae kaminawk hoi khokkhu cangkrawn moe, tui nae kaminawk to tapraek ah, tiah a naa.
6 And the nomber of them that lapped by putting their handes to their mouthes, were three hundreth men: but all the remnant of the people kneeled downe vpon their knees to drinke water.
Kami cumvai thumtonawk loe tui to ban hoiah soh o moe, naek o. Kalah kaminawk boih loe tuinaek hanah cangkrawn o.
7 Then the Lord sayde vnto Gideon, By these three hundreth men that lapped, will I saue you, and deliuer the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the other people go euery man vnto his place.
Angraeng mah Gideon khaeah, Ban hoi tui nae kami cumvai thumto hoiah nang to kang pahlong moe, Midian kaminawk to na ban ah kang paek han; kalah kaminawk loe angmacae ohhaih ahmuen ah caehsak boih ah, tiah a naa.
8 So the people tooke vitailes with them, and their trumpets: and he sent all the rest of Israel, euery man vnto his tent, and reteined the three hundreth men: and the hoste of Midian was beneath him in a valley.
To pongah Gideon mah kalah Israel kaminawk boih khaeah angmacae ih hmuenmae hoi mongkahnawk to a laksak moe, angmacae ohhaih ahmuen ah patoeh let; anih loe kami cumvai thumto hoiah caeh; to naah Midian kaminawk loe nihcae ohhaih aloih bang ih tangtling ah atai o.
9 And the same night the Lord sayde vnto him, Arise, get thee downe vnto the hoste: for I haue deliuered it into thine hand.
To na aqum ah Angraeng mah Gideon khaeah, Angthawk loe, misatuh kaminawk ataihaih ahmuen ah caeh tathuk ah, nihcae to na ban ah kang paek boeh.
10 But if thou feare to go downe, then go thou, and Phurah thy seruant downe to the hoste,
Toe caeh tathuk hanah na zit nahaeloe, misatuh kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen ah na tamna Phurah hoiah nawnto caeh ah;
11 And thou shalt hearken what they say, and so shall thine handes be strong to go downe vnto the hoste. Then went he downe and Phurah his seruant vnto the outside of the souldiers that were in the hoste.
nihcae mah thuih ih lok to na thaih tih; to pacoengah loe misatuh kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen ah caeh tathuk hanah, na ban thacakhaih to om tih, tiah a naa. To pongah Gideon loe a tamna Phurah hoi nawnto misatuh kaminawk ataihaih tasa bang ih misatoephaih ahmuen ah caeh.
12 And the Midianites, and the Amalekites and all they of the East, lay in the valley like grashoppers in multitude, and their camels were without nomber, as the sande which is by the sea side for multitude.
Midian kaminawk, Amalek kaminawk hoi ni angyae bangah kaom kaminawk loe azawn ah atai o; nihcae loe kroek laek ai pakhuh zetto oh o; nihcae ih kaengkuu hrangnawk doeh, kroek laek ai savuet zetto pop o.
13 And when Gideon was come, beholde, a man tolde a dreame vnto his neighbour, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dreame, and lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled from aboue into the hoste of Midian, and came vnto a tent, and smote it that it fell, and ouerturned it, that the tent fell downe.
Gideon phak naah, kami maeto mah angmah ih ampui khaeah amang to thuih pae, khenah, amang ka sak; barli cang hoi sak ih takaw kae loe Midian kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen ah amlet tathuk; kahni im phak naah, kahni im to a taeh phaeng, kahni im loe amtimh rup, tiah a naa.
14 And his fellow answered, and sayde, This is nothing els saue the sworde of Gideon the sonne of Ioash a man of Israel: for into his hande hath God deliuered Midian and all the hoste.
Anih ih ampui mah, To hmuen loe kalah hmuen mak ai; Israel kami Joash capa Gideon ih sumsen ni; Sithaw mah Midian kaminawk hoi haeah katai misatuh kaminawk boih, anih ban ah paek boeh, tiah a naa.
15 When Gideon heard the dreame tolde, and the interpretation of the same, he worshipped, and returned vnto the hoste of Israel, and said, Vp: for the Lord hath deliuered into your hande the hoste of Midian.
To ih amang hoi amang lehkung ih lok to Gideon mah thaih naah, Sithaw to bok, Israel kaminawk ataihaih ahmuen ah amlaem let moe, Angthawk oh; Angraeng mah Midian kaminawk to nangcae ban ah paek boeh, tiah a thuih pae.
16 And hee deuided the three hundreth men into three bandes, and gaue euery man a trumpet in his hande with emptie pitchers, and lampes within the pitchers.
Kami cumvai thumtonawk to abu thumto ah tapraek pacoengah, mongkah hoi long laom thungah hmai paang pacoengah kaminawk hanah a paek boih.
17 And he sayd vnto them, Looke on me, and do likewise, when I come to the side of the hoste: euen as I do, so do you.
Nihcae khaeah, Kai hae na khen oh; ka sak ih baktih toeng ah sah oh; nihcae ohhaih kahni im ka phak naah, ka sak ih baktih toengah sah oh, tiah a naa.
18 When I blowe with a trumpet and all that are with me, blowe ye with trumpets also on euery side of the hoste, and say, For the Lord, and for Gideon.
Kaimah hoi ka taengah kaom kaminawk boih mah mongkah uengh o naah, nihcae ataihaih kahni im taeng boih ah mongkah to ueng o thuih loe, Angraeng hoi Gideon ih sumsen, tiah hang oh, tiah a naa.
19 So Gideon and the hundreth men that were with him, came vnto the outside of the hoste, in the beginning of the middle watche, and they raised vp the watchmen, and they blew with their trumpets, and brake the pitchers that were in their handes.
To pongah Gideon hoi a taengah kaom kami cumvaitonawk to angthawk o moe, qum taning ih misatoep angthlaenghaih tue phak naah, nihcae ataihaih kahni imtaeng ah a caeh o; to naah mongkah to uengh o moe, a ban ah sin o ih long laomnawk to vah o phaeng.
20 And the three companies blew with trumpets and brake the pitchers, and helde the lampes in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right. handes to blowe withall: and they cryed, The sword of the Lord and of Gideon.
To naah abu thumto ah tapraek ih kaminawk boih mah mongkah to ueng o; long laomnawk to a vah o phaeng, banqoi bang hoiah hmaithaw to sin o moe, bantang bang hoiah mongkah to a sin o; Angraeng hoi Gideon ih sumsen, tiah a hang o.
21 And they stoode, euery man in his place round about the hoste: and all the hoste ranne, and cryed, and fled.
Kaminawk boih kahni im taengah angdoet o naah, Midian kaminawk to cawnh o boih; cawnh hoiah a hangh o.
22 And the three hundreth blewe with trumpets, and the Lord set euery mans sworde vpon his neighbour, and vpon all the hoste: so the hoste fled to Beth-hashittah in Zererah, and to the border of Abel-meholah, vnto Tabbath.
Kami cumvai thumtonawk mah mongkah uengh o naah, Angraeng mah misatuh kaminawk boih, angmacae ampuinawk to sumsen hoiah tuksak; misatuh kaminawk loe Zererah ahmuen Beth-Shittah vangpui ah, Tabbath vangpui taengah kaom Abel-Meholah ramri karoek to cawnh o.
23 Then the men of Israel being gathered together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, pursued after the Midianites.
Naphtali, Asher hoi Manasseh ih kaminawk boih nawnto amhong o moe, Midian kaminawk to patom o.
24 And Gideon sent messengers vnto all mount Ephraim, saying, Come downe against the Midianites, and take before them the waters vnto Beth-barah, and Iorden. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered together and tooke the waters vnto Beth-barah, and Iorden.
Midian kaminawk tuk hanah, Jordan vapui hoi Beth-Barah avang khoek to caeh oh loe, a ngang oh tiah, Gideon mah Ephraim mae boih ah laicaeh to patoeh. To pacoengah Ephraim kaminawk boih nawnto amkhueng o moe, Jordan vapui taeng Berth-Barah avang khoek to angang o.
25 And they tooke two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb, and slew Oreb vpon the rocke Oreb, and slewe Zeeb at the winepresse of Zeeb, and pursued the Midianites, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyonde Iorden.
Midian kaminawk zaehoikung misatuh angraeng hnetto, Oreb hoi Zeeb to a naeh o; Oreb to Oreb lungsong nuiah a hum o moe, Zeeb to Zeeb misurtui pasawhaih ahmuen ah a hum o. Midian kaminawk to patom o moe, Jordan vapui yaeh ah kaom Gideon khaeah Oreb hoi Zeeb ih lu to a sin pae o.
