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.
Na ka maranga wawe a Ierupaara, ara a Kiriona, ratou ko tona nuinga katoa, a noho ana i te puna o Haroro; a i te taha ki te raki o ratou te puni o Miriana, i te puke o More, i te raorao.
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;
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Kiriona, He nui rawa te iwi i a koe nei hei hoatutanga maku i nga Miriani ki o ratou ringa, kei whakapehapeha a Iharaira ki ahau, kei mea, Na toku ringa ake ahau i whakaora.
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.
Na, tena, karanga ki nga taringa o te iwi, mea atu, Ki te wehi, ki te pawera tetahi, hoki atu, hohoro te haere atu i Maunga Kireara. Na e rua tekau ma rua mano o te iwi i hoki; a mahue iho, kotahi tekau mano.
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.”
I mea ano a Ihowa ki a Kiriona, He nui rawa ano te iwi na; kawea ratou ki raro, ki te wai, a ko ahau hei kaiwhakamatautau mau i a ratou ki reira: a ko taku e mea ai ki a koe, Me haere tahi tenei i a koe; ko ia e haere tahi i a koe; a ko taku e me a ai ki a koe, E kore tenei e haere tahi i a koe; kaua tena e haere.
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.”
Na ko tana kawenga i te iwi ki raro, ki te wai, a ka mea a Ihowa ki Kiriona, Ko te hunga katoa e mitikia ai te wai ki o ratou arero, pera me te kuri e miti nei, me whakatu ratou ki tahaki me te hunga katoa ano e tuturi ana ki te inu.
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.
A, ko te tokomaha o te hunga i mitimiti, me te pa ano o o ratou ringa ki o ratou mangai, e toru rau tangata: i tuturi ia te nuinga katoa o te iwi ki te inu i te wai.
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.”
Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Kiriona, Ma nga rau tangata e toru i mitimiti ra e whakaora ai ahau i a koutou, e hoatu ai hoki nga Miriani ki tou ringa; a kia haere te iwi katoa, tera, ki tona wahi.
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.
Na ka mauria e te iwi he o ki o ratou ringa, me a ratou tetere: ko te nuinga ia o Iharaira i tonoa e ia ki tona teneti, ki tona teneti, a puritia ana aua tangata e toru ra: na i raro i a ia te puni o Miriana, i te raorao.
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;
Na i taua po ano ka mea a Ihowa ki a ia, Whakatika, haere ki raro, ki te puni ra, kua hoatu hoki e ahau ki tou ringa.
10 and if you are afraid to go down—go down, you and your young man Phurah, to the camp,
A ki te wehi koe ki te haere ki raro, haere korua ko Pura, ko tau tangata, ki raro ki te puni.
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;
A ka rongo koe ki a ratou korero, muri iho ka maia ou ringa, a ka haere koe ki raro, ki te puni. Na ko to raua haerenga atu ko tana tangata, ko Pura, ki te hiku o nga matua o te puni.
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.
A e takoto haere ana i te raorao nga Miriani, ratou ko nga Amareki, me nga tamariki katoa o te rawhiti, kei te manawhitiwhiti te tokomaha; me a ratou kamera, kahore e taea te tatau; rite tahi ki te onepu i te taha o te moana te tokomaha.
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.”
A, no te taenga atu o Kiriona, na e korero ana tetahi i te moe ki tona hoa, e mea ana, Nana, moe iho ahau, he keke taro pare e takahuri mai ana ki te puni o Miriana. Na kua tae mai ki te teneti; kua aki atu; na kua hinga, kua huri koaro, a takot o ana te teneti.
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.”
Na ka utu tona hoa, ka mea, Ehara tena i te mea ke atu i te hoari a Kiriona tama a Ioaha, he tangata no Iharaira: kua hoatu e te Atua a Miriana me te ope katoa ki tona ringa.
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.”
A, i te rongonga o Kiriona i te korerotanga o te moe, i tona tikanga, na ka koropiko ia, a hoki ana ki te puni o Iharaira, ka mea, Whakatika, kua homai hoki e te Atua te ope o Miriana ki o koutou ringa.
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.
Katahi ka wehea e ia nga tangata e toru rau, kia toru nga matua, a whakawhiwhia ana e ia nga ringa o ratou katoa ki te tetere, ki te oko tahanga, ki te rama i roto i te oko.
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;
I mea ano ia ki a ratou, Me titiro mai ki ahau, a kia rite ta koutou ki taku; na, e tae ahau ki te wahi i waho rawa o te puni, ko taku e mea ai, kia pera hoki koutou.
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 whakatangi ahau i te tetere, matou ko oku hoa katoa, me whakatangi hoki koutou i nga tetere i nga taha katoa o te puni, me te karanga ano, Ko te hoari a Ihowa, a Kiriona.
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;
Na ka tae a Kiriona me te rau tangata i a ia ki te wahi i waho rawa o te puni, i te timatanga o to waenga mataaratanga, i te mea katahi ano ka whakaturia atu nga kaimataara: na whakatangihia ana e ratou nga tetere, a wahia iho nga oko i o ratou ringa.
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!”
A whakatangihia ana hoki nga tetere e nga matua e toru, wahia iho nga oko, i puritia ano nga rama ki o ratou ringa maui, me nga tetere ki o ratou ringa matau whakatangi ai; me ta ratou karanga hoki, Ko te hoari a Ihowa, a Kiriona.
21 And they each stand in his place, around the camp, and all the camp runs, and they shout, and flee;
Na tu ana ratou i tona turanga, i tona turanga, taiawhio noa te puni: a ka rere katoa te puni; a ko to ratou hamamatanga, na ko te whatinga.
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.
I whakatangihia hoki e ratou nga tetere e toru rau, a meinga ana e Ihowa kia anga te hoari a tenei tangata, a tenei tangata, ki tona hoa, ki tona hoa, ki te ope katoa ano hoki: a ka whati te ope tae noa ki Petehita e ahu atu ana ki Tererara, tae noa ki te rohe o Aperemehora, e tata ana ki Tapata.
23 And the men of Israel are called from Naphtali, and from Asher, and from all Manasseh, and pursue after Midian.
Katahi ka huihuia nga tangata o Iharaira, i roto i a Napatari, i a Ahera, i a Manahi katoa, a whaia ana a Miriana e ratou.
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,
A i tono karere a Kiriona puta noa i te whenua pukepuke katoa o Eparaima hei mea, Haere mai ki raro ki te whawhai ki a Miriana; tangohia hoki nga wai i mua i a ratou, a puta noa ki Petepara ki Horano. Na ka huihui nga tangata katoa o Eparaima, a tangohia ana nga wai, a puta noa ki Petepara ki Horano.
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.
A tokorua nga rangatira o Miriana i mau i a ratou, ko Orepe raua ko Teepe; a patua iho e ratou a Orepe ki te kamaka a Orepe, i patua hoki a Teepe ki te poka waina a Teepe, a whaia ana e ratou a Miriana, a kawea ana e ratou nga matenga o Orepe ra ua ko Teepe ki a Kiriona ki tawahi o Horano.
