Judges 7
1 And Jerubba‘al (he [is] Gideon) rises early, and all the people who [are] with him, and they encamp by the well of Harod, and the camp of Midian has been on the south of him, on the height of Moreh, in the valley.
Gokinyi mangʼich, Jerub-Baal (mano en Gideon) kod joge duto nojot e soko mar Harod. Kambi jo-Midian ne nitiere yo nyandwat margi e holo man but got More.
2 And YHWH says to Gideon, “The people who [are] with you [are] too many for My giving Midian into their hand, lest Israel beautify itself against Me, saying, My hand has given salvation to me;
Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Gideon niya, “In-gi ji mangʼeny ma ok anyal chiwo jo-Midian e lwetgi. Mondo kik jo-Israel sungrena ni tekogi ema oresogi,
3 and now, please call in the ears of the people, saying, Whoever [is] afraid and trembling, let him turn back and go early from Mount Gilead”; and there return twenty-two thousand of the people, and ten thousand have been left.
go milome ne ji ni, ‘Ngʼato angʼata ma luoro omako ogom kendo oa e Got Gilead.’” Omiyo ji alufu piero ariyo gariyo noa, to ji alufu apar nodongʼ.
4 And YHWH says to Gideon, “The people [are] yet too many; bring them down to the water, and I refine him for you there; and it has been, he of whom I say to you, This goes with you—he goes with you; and any of whom I say to you, This does not go with you—he does not go.”
To Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko Gideon niya, “Pod nitie ji mangʼeny ahinya. Kawgi itergi e pi, kendo abiro miyogi penj kuno. Ka awacho ni, ‘Ma biro dhi kodi,’ to obiro dhi; to ka awacho ni, ‘Ma ok bi dhi kodi,’ to ok obi dhi.”
5 And he brings the people down to the water, and YHWH says to Gideon, “Everyone who laps of the water with his tongue as the dog laps—you set him apart; also everyone who bows on his knees to drink.”
Omiyo Gideon noterogi e dho pi. Kanyo Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Pog jogo magado pi gi lewgi kaka guok kuom jogo magoyo chong-gi piny mondo omodhi.”
6 And the number of those lapping with their hand to their mouth is three hundred men, and all the rest of the people have bowed down on their knees to drink water.
Ji mia adek nogado pi gi lwetgi. Jogo modongʼ nogoyo chonggi piny mondo gimodhi.
7 And YHWH says to Gideon, “I save you by the three hundred men who are lapping, and have given Midian into your hand, and all the people go, each to his place.”
Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Gideon niya, “Kuom ji mia adek mane ogado pi gi lwetgi, anaresu kendo achiw jo-Midian e lwetu. We ji mamoko odhi, ka moro ka moro dok dalane.”
8 And the people take the provision in their hand, and their horns, and he has sent every man of Israel away, each to his tents; and he has kept hold on the three hundred men, and the camp of Midian has been by him at the lower part of the valley.
Omiyo Gideon nooro jo-Israel mamoko e hembegi, to ji mia adek mane odongʼ-go nokawo chiemo kod turumbete mag joma nodok e miechgi. Kambi jo-Midian ne ni e holo gi mwalo.
9 And it comes to pass, on that night, that YHWH says to him, “Rise, go down into the camp, for I have given it into your hand;
Otienono Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Gideon niya, “Aa malo, dhiyo imonj kambi, nikech adhi chiwe e lweti.
10 and if you are afraid to go down—go down, you and your young man Phurah, to the camp,
Kiluor mar monjogi, to dhi e kambi gi jatichni Pura
11 and you have heard what they speak, and afterward your hands are strengthened, and you have gone down against the camp.” And he goes down, he and his young man Phurah, to the extremity of the fifties who [are] in the camp;
kendo ichik iti iwinj gima giwacho. Bangʼe, inibed gi mijingʼo mar monjo kambino.” Omiyo en kod Pura jatichne negidhi machiegni gi kambi.
12 and Midian, and Amalek, and all the sons of the east are lying in the valley, as the locust for multitude, and of their camels there is no number, as sand which [is] on the seashore for multitude.
Jo-Midian, jo-Amalek kod jogo moa yo wuok chiengʼ nojot e holo mane oyugno ka kama bonyo ochokore. Ne gin gi ngamia mangʼeny mane ok nyal kwan mana ka kwoyo manie dho nam.
13 And Gideon comes in, and behold, a man is recounting a dream to his companion, and says, “Behold, I have dreamed a dream, and behold, a cake of barley-bread is turning itself over into the camp of Midian, and it comes to the tent, and strikes it, and it falls, and turns it upwards, and the tent has fallen.”
Gideon nochopo mana ka ngʼat moro ne nyiso osiepene lek. Ngʼatno ne wachone osiepene niya, “Ne aleko ni makati molos gi mogo mar shairi molworore nobiro e kambi jo-Midian. Nogoyo hema gi teko ma hema olokore kendo olwar piny.”
14 And his companion answers and says, “This is nothing except the sword of Gideon son of Joash, a man of Israel; God has given Midian and all the camp into his hand.”
Osiepne nodwoko niya, “Ma ok en wach moro machielo makmana ligangla mar Gideon wuod Joash, ma ja-Israel. Nyasaye osechiwo jo-Midian kod kambi duto e lwete.”
15 And it comes to pass, when Gideon hears the narration of the dream and its interpretation, that he bows himself, and turns back to the camp of Israel, and says, “Rise, for YHWH has given the camp of Midian into your hand.”
Ka Gideon nowinjo lekno kod kaka oloke, nopako Nyasaye. Nodok e kambi jo-Israel kendo owacho niya, “Chungʼuru malo! Jehova Nyasaye osechiwo jo-Midian e lwetu.”
16 And he divides the three hundred men [into] three detachments, and puts horns into the hand of all of them, and empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.
Nopogo ji mia adekgo e migepe adek, komiyogi duto turumbete kod njagi maonge gimoro e iye e lwetgi, ka nitiere toch ei njagigo.
17 And he says to them, “Look at me, and thus do; and behold, I am coming into the extremity of the camp—and it has been—as I do so you do;
Nowachonegi niya, Luwauru ka ungʼiyo kendo ka achopo but hema, to timuru mana kaka atimo.
18 and I have blown with a horn—I and all who [are] with me, and you have blown with horns, even you, around all the camp, and have said, For YHWH and for Gideon!”
Ka agoyo turumbete kaachiel jogo duto ma an-go, eka un joma uselworo kambi bende ugo turumbete ka ukok niya, “Wakedo ni Jehova Nyasaye kod Gideon.”
19 And Gideon comes—and the hundred men who [are] with him—into the extremity of the camp, [at] the beginning of the middle watch (they had just posted watchmen), and they blow with horns—also dashing in pieces the pitchers which [are] in their hand;
Gideon kod ji mia achiel mane ni kode nochopo e bath kambi chuny otieno, mana bangʼ kane gisewilo jorito. Negigoyo turumbetegi kendo gitoyo agulni mane ni e lwetegi.
20 and the three detachments blow with horns, and break the pitchers, and keep hold with their left hand on the lamps, and with their right hand on the horns to blow, and they cry, “The sword of YHWH and of Gideon!”
Kambi adekgi nogoyo turumbete kendo gitoyo njagi. Ka gimako toje gi lwetgi koracham kendo ka gitingʼo turumbete mane onego gi goo gi lwetgi korachwich, ne gikok niya, “Ligangla en mar Jehova Nyasaye kod Gideon!”
21 And they each stand in his place, around the camp, and all the camp runs, and they shout, and flee;
E sa ma ngʼato ka ngʼato nokawo kare ka gilworo kambi, jo-Midian duto noringo, kendo negiringo ka giywak.
22 and the three hundred blow the horns, and YHWH sets the sword of each against his companion, even through all the camp; and the camp flees to Beth-Shittah, at Zererath, to the border of Abel-Meholah, by Tabbath.
E sa ma turumbete mia adekgo nogoo, Jehova Nyasaye noketo ji duto mane ni e kambi ochako kedo e kindgi giwegi ka ginegore gi ligangla. Jolweny noringo odhi Beth Shitta kochiko Zerera mochopo nyaka e tongʼ mar Abel Mehola man but Tabath.
23 And the men of Israel are called from Naphtali, and from Asher, and from all Manasseh, and pursue after Midian.
Noluong jo-Israel moa Naftali, Asher kod Manase, kendo negilawo jo-Midian.
24 And Gideon has sent messengers into all the hill-country of Ephraim, saying, “Come down to meet Midian, and capture the waters from them as far as Beth-Barah, and the Jordan”; and every man of Ephraim is called, and they capture the waters as far as Beth-Barah, and the Jordan,
Gideon nooro joote e piny gode mag Efraim duto, kowacho, “Biuru uked kod jo-Midian kendo udhi nyimgi ma umak pige mag Jordan mochopo nyaka Beth Bara.” Omiyo jo-Efraim duto nowuok oko kendo negikawo pige mag Jordan mochopo Beth Bara.
25 and they capture two of the heads of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb, and slay Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and they have slain Zeeb at the wine-vat of Zeeb, and they pursue into Midian; and they have brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.
Negimako bende jotelo ariyo mag jo-Midian, Oreb kod Zeb. Neginego Oreb e lwanda mar Oreb, kod Zeb e kar biyo divai mar Zeb. Negilawo jo-Midian kendo gikelo wiye Oreb kod Zeb ni Gideon, kama ne entie but aora Jordan.
