Judges 6
1 And the children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and Jehovah delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years.
Isarelnaw ni BAWIPA mithmu vah hno kahawihoehe a sak awh, hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni Midian kut dawk kum 7 touh san a toung sak.
2 And the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel; and because of Midian the children of Israel made for themselves the dens which are in the mountains, and the caves, and the strongholds.
Midiannaw ni Isarelnaw teh a rektap dawkvah, Isarelnaw ni kâhro nahanlah mon dawk talai kâkhu ka cak poung lah a tai awh.
3 And so it was, when Israel had sown, that Midian, Amalek, and the Kedemites would come up against them.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarelnaw ni law a sak awh nah tangkuem koe Midiannaw, Amaleknaw, hoi Kanîtholae taminaw ni pou a tho sin awh teh, pou a tuk awh.
4 And they camped against them, and destroyed the increase of the earth, as far as Gaza, and they left no sustenance in Israel, as well as sheep, or ox, or donkey.
Isarel ram thungvah tungpup rim a sak awh teh, talai dawk e ka paw e caticamu pueng Gaza totouh a raphoe pouh awh. Isarelnaw ni kâkawknae banghai tat pout laipalah, tu, maito, la totouh pek pouh awh hoeh.
5 For they came up with their livestock and their tents and their camels. They would come in like locusts in number, and they were innumerable. And they came into the land to ravage it.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh ni saring hoi rim khuehoi samtong yit touh ka phat lah a tho awh. Amamouh hoi kalauknaw teh touk thai lah awm hoeh. Isarel ram raphoe hanelah a tho awh.
6 Israel was brought very low because of Midian; and the children of Israel cried to Jehovah.
Midian kecu dawk Isarel teh puenghoi roedeng a khang awh dawkvah, BAWIPA a kaw awh.
7 It happened, when the children of Israel cried to Jehovah because of Midian,
Midiannaw kecu dawk Isarel ni BAWIPA a kaw toteh,
8 that Jehovah sent a prophet to the children of Israel, and he said to them, "Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel, 'I brought you up from the land of Egypt, and brought you forth out of the house of bondage;
Isarelnaw koe BAWIPA ni profet buet touh a tha pouh.
9 and I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all who oppressed you, and drove them out from before you, and gave you their land;
Na ka rektap e Izip kut dawk hoi thoseh, na ka pacekpahleknaw kut dawk hoi thoseh, nangmanaw na taran ahawi awh teh, ahnimanaw hah nangmouh hmalah ka pâlei vaiteh, a ram roup na poe awh han.
10 and I said to you, "I am Jehovah your God; you shall not fear the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell." But you have not listened to my voice.'"
Kai teh nangmae BAWIPA Cathut doeh. Nangmouh na onae dawk kaawm e Amonnaw e cathutnaw hah taket awh hanh, ka ti eiteh, ka lawk hah na ngai awh hoeh atipouh.
11 The angel of Jehovah came, and sat under the oak which was in Ophrah, that pertained to Joash the Abiezrite: and his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites.
Hahoi BAWIPA e kalvantami a tho pouh teh, Ophrah kho, Abiezrit capa Joash e kathen kung rahim vah a tahung. Joash e capa Gideon teh amae cang hah Midiannaw ni a pâphawng hoeh nahanelah, misur katinnae teng vah a katin pouh.
12 The angel of Jehovah appeared to him, and said to him, "Jehovah is with you, mighty warrior."
BAWIPA e kalvantami ni ahni koe a kamphawng pouh teh, athakaawme ransa, BAWIPA teh nang koe ao atipouh navah,
13 Gideon said to him, "Oh, my lord, if Jehovah is with us, why then has all this happened to us? Where are all his wondrous works which our fathers told us of, saying, 'Didn't Jehovah bring us up from Egypt?' But now Jehovah has cast us off, and delivered us into the hand of Midian."
Oe BAWIPA Cathut teh maimouh koe awm pawiteh, bangkongmaw hete hnonaw teh maimouh koe a pha sak vaw. Mintoenaw teh BAWIPA ni Izip ram hoi a tâco sak awh nahoehmaw, kai koe ouk a dei awh e kângairuhnonaw te nâne. Hatei, atuteh BAWIPA ni na pahnawt teh, Midian kut dawk na poe toe khe telah a ti.
14 And Jehovah looked at him, and said, "Go in this strength of yours and save Israel from the hand of Midian. Look, haven't I sent you?"
Hahoi Bawipa ni a kamlang sin teh, atu na tawn e thaonae kâuep hoi cet haw, Midian kut dawk hoi Isarel teh rasat haw, Kai ni na patoun e nahoehmaw atipouh.
15 He said to him, "O Lord, how shall I save Israel? Look, my family is the poorest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house."
Hahoi teh Gideon ni, BAWIPA kaimouh ni Isarelnaw bangtelah hoi maw ka rasa thai awh han vaw. Ka miphun teh Manasseh thung dawk hoe ka mathoe e, kama hai thoseh ka hmaunawngha thung dawk kathoungpounge lah ka o.
16 Jehovah said to him, "Surely I will be with you, and you shall strike the Midianites as one man."
Hahoi BAWIPA ni a pato teh, hatei nang koe ka o han, Midiannaw teh tami buet touh na thei e patetlah na thei han doeh atipouh.
17 He said to him, "If now I have found favor in your sight, then show me a sign that it is you who talk with me.
Gideon ni nang koehoi minhmai kahawi ka hmawt pawiteh, nang hoi atu kâpatonae panue nahanelah, kamnuenae hno buet touh na hmawt sak haw.
18 Please do not go away, until I come to you, and bring out my present, and lay it before you." He said, "I will wait until you come back."
Hno buetbuet touh ka sin vaiteh, na hmalah ka thokhai hoehroukrak hete hmuen koehoi na kampuen pouh hanh ei a telah ka kâhei navah ahni ni, na ban hoehroukrak ka o han a ti.
19 Gideon went in, and made ready a kid, and unleavened cakes of an ephah of meal: the meat he put in a basket, and he put the broth in a pot, and brought it out to him under the oak, and presented it.
Gideon ni a cei teh, hmaeca buet touh, tavai ephah buet touh, tonphuenhoehe vaiyeinaw hah a sin teh, hmae moi hah tangthung dawk a pâseng teh, hmae moi hang teh hlaam dawk a ta teh, kalvantami aonae koe bengkengkung rahim a sin teh a poe.
20 The angel of God said to him, "Take the meat and the unleavened cakes, and lay them on this rock, and pour out the broth." And he did so.
Hahoi Cathut e kalvantami ni ahni koe, moi hoi tonphuenhoehe hah lat loe, hete talung van hrueng loe, a hang hoi awi loe atipouh. Hottelah a sak pouh.
21 Then the angel of Jehovah put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and there went up fire out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and the angel of Jehovah departed out of his sight.
Hahoi teh, BAWIPA e kalvantami ni a kut dawk a sin e sonron a dâw teh, moi hoi tonphuenhoehe vaiyei hah a nep. Hahoi talung thung hoi a tâco teh, moi hoi tonphuenhoehe vaiyei hmai he a kak pouh. BAWIPA e kalvantami teh yout a kahma pouh.
22 Gideon saw that he was the angel of Jehovah; and Gideon said, "Alas, Lord Jehovah. Because I have seen the angel of Jehovah face to face."
Hat torei teh, Gideon ni BAWIPA e kalvantami tie a panue. Hahoi teh, Oe Bawipa Jehovah, atuteh BAWIPA e kalvantami minhmai rek ka hmu toe a ti.
23 Jehovah said to him, "Peace be to you. Do not be afraid. You shall not die."
BAWIPA ni na lungpuen hanh. Yawhawinae awmseh. Nang teh na dout mahoeh.
24 Then Gideon built an altar there to Jehovah, and called it "Jehovah is Peace." To this day it is still in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
Hote hmuen koe Gideon ni Bawipa hanlah thuengnae a sak teh, BAWIPA teh roumnae (Jehovah-shaloam) telah a phung. Abiezrit capa e hmuen koe Ophrah kho dawk sahnin ditouh ao.
25 It happened the same night, that Jehovah said to him, "Take your father's bull, even the second bull seven years old, and tear down the altar of Baal that your father has, and cut down the Asherah that is beside it;
Hote hnin tangmin vah BAWIPA ni na poe e maito matawng hoi apâhni e kum sari touh e maitotan hah sin nateh, na pa ni a sak e Baal cathut thuengnae khoungroe hah raphoe nateh, khoungroe teng kaawm e Asherah thing hah tâtueng loe.
26 and build an altar to Jehovah your God on the top of this stronghold, in the orderly manner, and take the second bull, and offer a burnt offering with the wood of the Asherah which you shall cut down."
Kai ni ka dei e patetlah hete talung van vah, BAWIPA hanlah thuengnae khoungroe na sak hnukkhu, na tâtueng e thing hoi apâhni e maito hah hmaisawi thuengnae lah sak loe atipouh.
27 Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as Jehovah had spoken to him: and it came about, because he feared his father's household and the men of the city, so that he could not do it by day, that he did it by night.
Gideon ni amae sannaw 10 touh a kaw teh, BAWIPA ni a dei e patetlah a sak, a na pa e imthungkhunaw thoseh, khocanaw thoseh a taki teh, kanîthun vah a sak ngam hoeh dawkvah tangmin vah a sak.
28 When the men of the city arose early in the morning, look, the altar of Baal was broken down, and the Asherah was cut down that was by it, and the second bull was offered on the altar that was built.
Amom khocanaw a thaw awh navah, Baal cathut e khoungroe peng a kâraphoe teh, ateng kaawm e Asherah thing hai a rawp teh, a hnukkhu sak e thuengnae khoungroe van vah, apâhni e maitotan thueng e hah a hmu awh.
29 And they said to one another, "Who has done this thing?" When they inquired and asked, they said, "Gideon the son of Joash has done this thing."
Hat toteh, hete hno heh apimouh ka sak telah buet touh hoi buet touh akung a kâkhei awh navah, hete hno teh Joash capa Gideon ni a sak telah tami tangawn ni ati awh.
30 Then the men of the city said to Joash, "Bring out your son, that he may die, because he has broken down the altar of Baal, and because he has cut down the Asherah that was by it."
Hattoteh khocanaw ni Joash koe, nange capa ni Baal cathutnaw e khoungroe peng a raphoe teh, ateng kaawm e Asherahkung hah a tâtueng dawkvah, ahni teh thei hanelah tâcawt sak hottelah atipouh awh.
31 Joash said to all who stood against him, "Will you contend for Baal? Or will you save him? He who will contend for him, let him be put to death while it is yet morning: if he is a god, let him contend for himself, because someone has broken down his altar."
Hateiteh, Joash ni ahnimouh koe nangmouh teh Baal cathut koelah maw na kampang awh han, hotnaw na rungngang awh han, ahni koelah kampang e tami teh, khodai hoehnahlan dout lawiseh. Baal teh cathut katang pawiteh, ahnie thuengnae khoungroe a raphoe kecu dawk, ama ni a sak e teh amamouh ni khang na lawiseh, telah bout atipouh.
32 Therefore on that day he named him Jerubbaal, saying, "Let Baal contend against him, because he has broken down his altar."
Hottelah Baal cathut e khoungroe ka raphoe e tami teh, amamouh ni a sak e patetlah ahni ni khang sak lawiseh, ati teh, amae capa hah hat hnin vah, Jerubbaal telah a min a phung.
33 Then all Midian and Amalek and the Kedemites assembled themselves together; and they crossed over, and camped in the Valley of Jezreel.
Hattoteh Midian tami, Amalek tami, Kanîtholae tami pueng a kamkhueng awh teh, Jezreel yawn tanghling dawk a roe awh.
34 But the Spirit of Jehovah came on Gideon; and he blew a trumpet; and Abiezer was gathered together after him.
BAWIPA e Muitha teh Gideon koe a pha. Gideon ni mongka a ueng teh, Abiezer capanaw ni a hnuk a kâbang awh.
35 He sent messengers throughout all Manasseh; and they also were gathered together after him: and he sent messengers to Asher, and to Zebulun, and to Naphtali; and they came up to meet them.
A patounenaw hah Manasseh ram pueng dawk a patoun teh, Manasseh miphun pueng ni a kâbang awh. Asher ram, Zebulun ram, Naphtali ram koe lahai a patounenaw bout a patoun teh, ahnimanaw hai kamkhuengnae koe a tho awh.
36 Gideon said to God, "If you will save Israel by my hand, as you have spoken,
Gideon ni Cathut koe nang ni na dei e patetlah Isarel miphunnaw hah kaie kut dawk hoi na hlout sak katang han na pawiteh,
37 look, I will put a fleece of wool on the threshing floor; if there is dew on the fleece only, and it is dry on all the ground, then shall I know that you will save Israel by my hand, as you have spoken."
kai ni tu buet touh e muen hah thongma dawk ka ta han. Hote tumuen teh tadamtui cukruk bawm boilah, talai remphui pawiteh, na dei e patetlah Isarel miphunnaw kaie kut dawk hoi na rungngang han tie hah ka panue han.
38 It was so; for he rose up early on the next day, and pressed the fleece together, and wrung the dew out of the fleece, a bowl full of water.
Hatteh ka hei e patetlah ao. Amom a thaw teh, tumuen a kasu boteh tadamtui kawlung buet touh yikkawi.
39 Gideon said to God, "Do not let your anger be kindled against me, and I will speak but this once. Please let me make one more test with the fleece; let it now be dry only on the fleece, and on all the ground let there be dew."
Gideon ni na lung khuek sak hanh ei, vai touh bout ka dei einei. Tu buet touh e muen hoi atu vai touh dueng na tanouk sak ei. Talai pueng tadamtui a duk vaiteh, tumuen remphui naseh, telah Cathut koe a hei e patetlah,
40 God did so that night, for it was dry on the fleece only, and there was dew all over the ground.
hote karum hai Cathut ni a sak pouh teh, talai pueng a duk teh tumuen remphui lah ao.
