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.
Aa ie marain-tsikiake, nitroatse t’Ierob’baale, toe i Gidone, naho i valobohòke nindre ama’ey vaho nañialo añ’ ila’ ty vovo’ i Karode eo; ie amy zao ro tavara’ i tobe’ o nte-Midianeoy, añ’ ila’ ty haboa’ i Morè, am-bavatane ao.
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.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Gidone, Loho maro amako ondaty mindre ama’oo, te hatoloko am-pità’ iareo o nte-Midianeo hera hiebotsebora’e ami’ty hoe: Ty tañako avao ty nandrombak’ ahy.
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.
Ie amy zao, taroño an-dravembia’ ondatio ke t’ie mahimahiñe he mititititike: apoho himpoly, hañaleñaleñe boak’ am-bohi-Gilade ao. Aa le Ro’ ale-tsi-ro’ arivo am’ondatio ty nimpoly, vaho rai-ale ty nisisa.
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.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Gidone, Mbe loho maro ondatio; ampizotsò mb’an-drano mb’eo, le ho tsoheko ho azo; ie amy zao, naho anoeko ama’o ty hoe, ie ty hindre ama’o, le ho mpiama’o, vaho ze anoeko ty hoe: Tsy hindre ama’o re, le tsy hionjoñe ka.
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.
Aa le nampizotsoe’e mb’an-drano mb’eo ondatio, le hoe t’Iehovà amy Gidone, Ze misao-drano am-pameleke hoe filelan’ amboa ro hasita’o; manahake izay o mitongaleke naho mibokoke hitohofa’eo.
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.
Aa le ty ia’ ondaty nisao-drano am-pitàñe naho ninoñe am-palieo ro telon-jato; o ila’eo fonga nitongaleke naho nibotreke te nitoho-drano.
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.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Gidone, Ho rombaheko am’ondaty telon-jato nisaokeo, vaho hatoloko am-pità’o o nte-Midianeo; aa le avotsoro himpoly mb’ an-toe’e añe iaby ondaty ila’eo,
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.
fe rinambe’ iareo am-pitàñe ty fivati’ ondatio naho o tsifan’ añondri’ iareoo; le hene nampolie’e mb’an-kiboho’e añe o ana’ Israele ila’eo vaho tama’e i telon-jato rey; le am-bavatane ambane’e ey ty tobe’ o nte-Midianeo.
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.
Ie amy haleñey, nanao ty hoe ama’e t’Iehovà: Miongaha naho mizotsoa mb’ an-tobe mb’eo fa natoloko am-pità’o.
10 But if thou feare to go downe, then go thou, and Phurah thy seruant downe to the hoste,
F’ie hembañe tsy te hizotso mb’eo, le endeso hindre ama’o mb’ an-tobe mb’eo t’i Porà mpitoro’o;
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.
le ho janjiñe’o o saontsie’eo, hampahafatrare’e o fità’oo, hizotsoa’o mb’ an-tobe mb’eo. Aa le nindre nizotso amy Porà mpitoro’e re mb’alàfe’ o mpitan-defo’ i tobeio.
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.
Nilafike hoe kijeja mifamorohotse am-bavatane ey o nte-Midianeo naho o nte-Amalekeo naho o anan-tatiñanañeo; vaho tsy nihay iaheñe o rameva’eo fa nitozantoza mira amo faseñe añ’ olon-driakeo.
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.
Ie nivotrak’eo t’i Gidone, inay t’indaty nitalily nofy ami’ty rañe’e, nanao ty hoe: Nañinofy nofy iraho te nahatrea vonga-mofom-bare hordea nivarimbary mb’an-tobe’ o nte-Midianeo naho mb’amo kibohotseo mb’eo le nidasira’e kanao nihotrake naho nivarihohoke vaho niforetrake o kibohotseo.
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.
Hoe ty natoi’ i rañe’ey aze: Ts’inoñe izay naho tsy ty fibara’ i Gidone ana’ Ioase, ana’ Israele, amy te fonga natolon’ Añahare am-pità’e o nte-Midianeo rekets’ i valobohò’ey.
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.
Ie jinanji’ i Gidone ty talili’ i nofiy naho i fandrazañañey, le nitalaho; aa ie tafampoly an-tobe’ Israele ao, hoe ty asa’e: Miongaha, fa natolo’ Iehovà am-pità’ areo ty tobe’ o nte-Midianeo.
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.
Aa le zinara’e ampirimboñañe telo indaty telon-jato rey, le songa nampipoha’e tsifan’ añondry raik’ am-pità’ ondatio reketse sini-hara kòake, naho ty failo mirekake am-po’ o sini-harao ao.
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.
Le hoe re tam’ iereo: Henteo iraho, vaho tsikombeo; ie pok’ alafe’ i tobey iraho, le hanoe’ areo ze anoeko.
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.
Ie popoeko i tsifay, naho o mindre amako iabio, le tiofo ka amy ze lafe’ i tobe iabiy o tsifao, vaho ano ty hoe: Ty fibara’ Iehovà naho i Gidone!
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.
Aa le nigadoñe ami’ ty efe’ i tobeio t’i Gidone naho i lahilahy mpiama’e zato rey, amy fifotoram-pijilovañe añivoy, aa vata’e nijadoñe o mpijiloo le pinopò’ iareo o tsifao vaho dinemo’ iareo o sini-hara am-pità’ iareoo.
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.
Fonga nampipopò’ antsiva i mpirai-lia telo rey; naho dinemo’ iareo o sini-harao, naho nizonjo failo am-pità’e havia, naho tsifa am-pità’e havana, nitioke, vaho nikoike ty hoe: Ty fibara’ Iehovà naho i Gidone.
21 And they stoode, euery man in his place round about the hoste: and all the hoste ranne, and cryed, and fled.
Songa nijohañe an-toe’e ey avao indaty rey nañarikatoke i tobey, le nitriban-day i valobohòkey; nikoikoike vaho nivoratsake.
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.
Ie nipopò i tsifa telon-jato rey, le nampizonjoe’ Iehovà ze hene’ ondaty an-tobe ao, sindre mb’aman-drañe’e vaho nilay pake Betesità mb’e Tsererà mb’eo, sikal’ añ’efe’ i Abel-meholà, marine’ i Tabate añe i valobohòkey.
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.
Hene kinoike boake Naftalý naho boak’ Asere naho boake Menasè o ana’ Israeleo le nifanontoñe vaho nihoridañe’ iareo t’i Midiane.
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.
Nampanitsihe’ i Gidone ty am-bohibohi’ i Efraime ao ty hoe: Mizotsoa haname i Midiane le tsepaho aolo’ iareo o rano pake Bete-barào naho Iordaney ka. Aa le nifanontoñe iaby o nte-Efraimeo vaho nitana’ iareo o rano pake Bete-barào naho Iordaney.
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.
Le tsinepa’ iareo ty roandria roe’ i Midiane, t’i Orebe naho i Zeèbe; vinono’ iareo am-bato’i Orebe eo t’i Orebe, vaho vinono’ iereo am-pipiritan-divai’ i Zeebe eo t’i Zeebe, le ie nihoridà’ iareo t’i Midiane, nasese’ iareo mb’ amy Gidone alafe’ Iordaney mb’eo ty añambone’ i Orebe naho i Zeebe.
