Judges 8
1 Then the men of Ephraim sayde vnto him, Why hast thou serued vs thus that thou calledst vs not, when thou wentest to fight with the Midianites? and they chode with him sharply.
Le hoe o nte-Efraimeo ama’e, Ino o nanoe’o anay t’ie tsy kinanji’o, ihe nionjomb’eo hialy amy Midiane? Le nitrevohe’ iareo an-keloke.
2 To whom he said, What haue I now done in comparison of you? is not the gleaning of grapes of Ephraim better, then the vintage of Abiezer?
Le hoe ty natoi’e, Ino ty nanoeko, te amy nanoe’oy? Tsy lombolombo te amo valòbo’ i Abiezereo hao ty fitsindroham-bahe’ i Efraime?
3 God hath deliuered into your handes the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb: and what was I able to do in comparison of you? and when he had thus spoken, then their spirits abated toward him.
Ie fa natolon’ Añahare am-pità’ areo i roandria’ i Midiane rey: t’i Orebe naho i Zeèbe? Aa le ino ty nilefeko mandikoatse i anahareoy? Niketrak’ amy zao ty haviñera’ iareo amy saontsi’ey.
4 And Gideon came to Iorden to passe ouer, hee, and the three hundreth men that were with him, weary, yet pursuing them.
Nomb’ am-pitsaha’ Iordaney mb’eo t’i Gidone le nitsake, ie rekets’ indaty telon-jato rey, nidazidazitse f’ie mbe nañoridañe avao.
5 And he said vnto the men of Succoth, Giue, I pray you, morsels of bread vnto the people that follow me (for they be wearie) that I may follow after Zebah, and Zalmunna Kings of Midian.
Le hoe re amo nte-Sokoteo, Anjotso boko-mofo i lia-raike mañorik’ ahiy, fa mikolempañe hañoridaña’ay i Zebake naho i Tsalmonà, mpanjaka’ i Midiane.
6 And the princes of Succoth sayde, Are the handes of Zebah and Zalmunna nowe in thine hads, that we should giue bread vnto thine army?
Le hoe o roandria’ i Sokoteo: Am-pità’o hao ty fità’ i Zebàke naho i Tsalmonà hamahana’ay mofo o lahin-defo’oo?
7 Gideon then sayde, Therefore when the Lord hath deliuered Zebah and Zalmunna into mine hand, I will teare your flesh with thornes of the wildernes and with breers.
Le hoe t’i Gidone, Aa ie fa natolo’ Iehovà an-tañako t’i Zebàke naho i Tsalmonà, le ho riateko am-patin-kivoke naho ropiteke ty nofo’ areo.
8 And he went vp thence to Penuel, and spake vnto them likewise, and the men of Penuel answered him, as the men of Succoth answered.
Boak’ao re nionjomb’e Penoele mb’eo le nahere’e am’ iereo i saontsiy; vaho nanoiñe aze manahake i natoi’ o lahilahi’ i Sokoteoy.
9 And he sayd also vnto the men of Penuel, When I come againe in peace, I will breake downe this towre.
Aa le hoe ty asa’e amo lahilahi’ i Penoeleo: Ie mibalik’ atoy am-panintsiñañe, le harotsako o fitalakesañ’ aboo.
10 Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor, and their hostes with them, about fifteene thousande, all that were left of all the hostes of them of the East: for there was slaine an hundreth and twentie thousand men, that drew swordes.
Ie amy zao, te Karkore añe reketse lahin-defoñe va’e rai-ale-tsi-lime-arivo t’i Zebake naho i Tsalmonà. Izay ty nisisa’ i lia-rain-tatiñanañey, fa nikoromak’ an-kotakotak’ao ty lahindefo rai-hetse-tsi-ro’ ale.
11 And Gideon went through them that dwelt in Tabernacles on the East side of Nobah and Iogbehah, and smote the hoste: for the hoste was carelesse.
Aa le nionjomb’ amy Lalam-Pimoneñ’ an-Kibohotsey t’i Gidone, atiñana’ i Nobà naho Iogbehà, vaho linafa’e i lia-raikey, amy te nierañerañe avao i firimboñañey.
12 And when Zebah and Zalmunna fled, hee followed after them, and tooke the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and discomfited all the hoste.
Nilay añe t’i Zebake naho i Tsalmonà fe hinorida’ iereo naho tsinepake i mpanjaka roe rey, i Zebake naho i Tsalmonà, vaho navalitsikota’e i valobohòkey.
13 So Gideon the sonne of Ioash returned from battel, the sunne being yet hie,
Nibalik’ amy hotakotakey t’i Gidone, ana’ Ioase aolo’ ty fanjiriha’ i àndroy,
14 And tooke a seruant of the me of Succoth, and inquired of him: and he wrote to him the princes of Succoth and the Elders thereof, euen seuentie and seuen men.
le tsinepa’e ty ajalahy boak’ amo nte-Sokoteo nañontane aze naho nampandrendreha’e o roandria’ i Sokote naho o talè’eo, ondaty fitompolo-fito’ amby.
15 And he came vnto the men of Succoth, and sayd, Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, by whome ye vpbrayded me, saying, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna already in thine hands, that we should giue bread vnto thy weary men?
Nivotrak’ am’ ondati’ i Sokoteo re, nanao ty hoe: Ingo t’i Zebake naho i Tsalmonà, o nañendaha’ areo ahio ami’ ty hoe: am-pità’o hao ty fità’ i Zebake naho i Tsalmonà hamahana’ay ondati’o màmakeo?
16 Then he tooke the Elders of the citie, and thornes of the wildernes and breers, and did teare the men of Succoth with them.
Aa le nendese’e o roandria’ i rovaio, miharo fatike naho ropiteke vaho nanare’e amy rezay o lahilahi’ i Sokoteo.
17 Also he brake downe the towre of Penuel, and slew the men of the citie.
Finofopòfo’e ka ty fitalakesañ’ abo’ i Penoele vaho navetra’e o lahilahi’ i rovaio.
18 Then saide he vnto Zebah and Zalmunna, What maner of men were they, whom ye slew at Tabor? and they answered, As thou art, so were they: euery one was like the children of a King.
Le hoe re amy Zebake naho i Tsalmonà: Akore v’ondaty vinono’ areo e Taboreo? Le hoe ty toi’ iareo: Nihambañe ama’o iereo, vintañe raik’ amo anam-panjakao.
19 And he said, They were my brethren, euen my mothers children: as the Lord liueth, if ye had saued their liues, I would not slay you.
Le hoe re, Nilongoko iereo, anan-dreneko; amy te veloñe t’Iehovà, naho rinomba’ areo veloñe iereo le tsy ho vinonoko nahareo.
20 Then he sayde vnto Iether his first borne sonne, Vp, and slay them: but the boy drew not his sword: for he feared, because he was yet yong.
Le hoe ty asa’e am’ Ietère tañoloñoloña’e: Miongaha vonò. Fe tsy nakare’ i ajalahiy ty fibara’e; amy t’ie nihembañe fa mbe tòra’e.
21 Then Zebah and Zalmunna sayd, Rise thou, and fall vpon vs: for as the man is, so is his strength. And Gideon arose and slew Zebah and Zalmunna, and tooke away the ornamentes, that were on their camels neckes.
Le hoe t’i Zebake naho i Tsalmonà, Miongaha le miambotraha ama’ay fa mira ami’ty lahilahy ty haozara’e. Aa le nitroatse t’i Gidone naho vinono’e t’i Zebake naho i Tsalmone vaho rinambe’e o saren-jirim-bolañe am-bozon-drameva’ iareoo.
22 Then the men of Israel sayd vnto Gideon, Reigne thou ouer vs, both thou, and thy sonne, and thy sonnes sonne: for thou hast deliuered vs out of the hand of Midian.
Le hoe o ana’ Israeleo amy Gidone: Mifehea anay, ihe naho i ana’oy, naho ty anan’ ana’o; fa rinomba’o am-pità’ i Midiane.
23 And Gideon sayde vnto them, I will not reigne ouer you, neither shall my childe reigne ouer you, but the Lord shall reigne ouer you.
Hoe ty natoi’ i Gidone: Tsy ho feleheko, naho tsy ho fehe’ o anakoo, fa ho fehe’ Iehovà.
24 Againe Gideon sayd vnto them, I would desire a request of you, that you would giue mee euery man the earings of his pray (for they had golden earings because they were Ismaelites)
Le hoe t’i Gidone am’ iereo, Mihalaly ama’ areo iraho te songa hanolotse ahy o bangen-tsofiñe nikoahe’eo. (Toe nivolamena o bangen-tsofi’ iareoo amy t’ie nte Ismaele.)
25 And they answered, Wee will giue them. And they spred a garment, and did cast therein euery man the earings of his pray.
Le hoe ty natoi’ iareo, Hatolo’ay an-joton-troke; Nalafi’ iareo eo amy zao ty lamba vaho songa nampipoke o bange kinopa’eo ze lahilahy.
26 And the weight of the golden earings that he required, was a thousande and seuen hundreth shekels of golde, beside collers and iewels, and purple rayment that was on the kings of Midian, and beside the cheynes that were about their camels neckes.
Arivo tsy fiton-jato sekele ty lanja’ o bange volamena nihalalie’eo, tsy añate’ izay o bange naho firavake vaho saroñe malo-mavo tamy mpanjaka’ i Midiane reio, le tsy tama’e ka o silisily nandravake ty vozon-drameva’eo.
27 And Gideon made an Ephod thereof, and put it in Ophrah his citie: and all Israel went a whoring there after it, which was the destruction of Gideon and his house.
Nitsene efode ama’e t’i Gidone naho nitana’e e Ofrà, an-drova’e ao naho fonga nanao hakarapiloañe ama’e amy toetsey t’Israele; ie ni-fandrik’ amy Gidone naho amy hasavereña’ey.
28 Thus was Midian brought lowe before the children of Israel, so that they lift vp their heads no more: and the countrey was in quietnes fourtie yeeres in the dayes of Gideon.
Aa le nampiambanèñe añatrefa’ o ana’ Israeleo t’i Midiane tsy nahafiandra ty añambone’e ka. Nitofa efa-polo taoñe faha’ i Gidone i taney.
29 Then Ierubbaal the sonne of Ioash went, and dwelt in his owne house.
Aa le nisitake t’Ierobaale ana’ Ioase, nimoneñe añ’anjomba’e ao.
30 And Gideon had seuentie sonnes begotten of his body: for he had many wiues.
Nahatoly anadahy fitompolo am-bata’e t’i Gidone, fa nimaro ty vali’e.
31 And his concubine that was in Shechem, bare him a sonne also, whose name he called Abimelech.
Nisamak’ ana-dahy ho aze ka i sakeza’e e Sekeme añey, le natao’e Abimeleke ty añara’e.
32 So Gideon the sonne of Ioash dyed in a good age, and was buried in the sepulchre of Ioash his father in Ophrah, of the father of ye Ezrites.
Nivilasy am-pahantera’e soa t’i Gidone ana’ Ioase, vaho nalentek’ an-kibori’ Ioase rae’e, e Ofrà’ o nte-Abiezereo.
33 But when Gideon was dead, the children of Israel turned away and went a whoring after Baalim, and made Baal-berith their God.
Aa ie nihomake t’i Gidone le nandifike mb’ amo Baaleo indraike o ana’ Israeleo, vaho nanoe’ iareo ho ‘ndrahare’ iareo ty Baale-berite.
34 And the children of Israel remembred not the Lord their God, which had deliuered the out of the hands of all their enemies on euery side.
Le tsy nitiahi’ o ana’ Israeleo t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo nandrombake iareo am-pità’ o rafelahi’ iareo niariseho iareo mb’ etiam-beroañeo;
35 Neither shewed they mercy on the house of Ierubbaal, or Gideon, according to al the goodnesse which he had shewed vnto Israel.
mbore tsy nanoe’ iereo vali-kare ty anjomba’ Ierobaale, toe i Gidone, ty amy ze hene soa nanoe’e e Israeleo.
