< Judges 7 >
1 Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people who were with him, rose up early, and camped beside the spring of Harod. And the camp of Midian was on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.
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 The LORD said to Gideon, "The people who are with you are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, 'My own hand has saved me.'
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 proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, 'Whoever is fearful and trembling, let him return and depart from Mount Gilead.' There returned of the people twenty-two thousand; but ten thousand remained.
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 The LORD said to Gideon, "The people are yet too many; bring them down to the water, and I will try them for you there: and it shall be, that of whom I tell you, This shall go with you, the same shall go with you; and of whoever I tell you, This shall not go with you, 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 down the people to the water. And the LORD said to Gideon, "Everyone who laps of the water with his tongue, as a dog laps, you shall put to one side; and everyone who gets down on his knees to drink with hand to mouth shall be on the other side."
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 The number of those who lapped with their tongues was three hundred men, but all the rest of the people got down on their knees to drink 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 The LORD said to Gideon, "By the three hundred men who lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand; and let all the people go every man to his home."
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 took food in their hand, and their trumpets; and he sent all the men of Israel every man to his tent, but retained the three hundred men. And the camp of Midian was beneath him in the 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 It happened the same night, that the LORD said to him, "Arise, get down into the camp; for I have delivered it into your 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 you fear to go down, go with Purah your servant down to the camp:
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 you shall hear what they say; and afterward will your hands be strengthened to go down into the camp." Then he went down with Purah his servant to the outermost part of the armed men who were in the camp.
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 Midian, Amalek, and all the Kedemites lay along in the valley as numerous as locusts; and their camels were without number, as numerous as the sand which is on the seashore.
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 When Gideon had come, look, there was a man telling a dream to his friend; and he said, "Look, I had a dream, and look, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian, and came to the tent, and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down, so that the tent collapsed."
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 His friend answered, "This is nothing less than the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel. Into his hand God has delivered Midian, and all the army."
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 It was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and its interpretation, that he worshiped, and he returned into the camp of Israel, and said, "Get up, for the LORD has delivered into your hand the army 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 He divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put into the hands of all of them trumpets, and empty pitchers, with torches 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 He said to them, "Look at me, and do likewise. And look, when I come to the outermost part of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so you shall do.
Le hoe re tam’ iereo: Henteo iraho, vaho tsikombeo; ie pok’ alafe’ i tobey iraho, le hanoe’ areo ze anoeko.
18 When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then you blow the trumpets also on every side of all the camp, 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 hundred men who were with him came to the outermost part of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch, when they had but newly set the watch: and they blew the trumpets, and broke in pieces the pitchers that were in their hands.
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 The three companies blew the trumpets, and broke the pitchers, and held the torches in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands with which to blow; and they called out, "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 They each stood in his place every man around the camp; and all the army ran; and they shouted, and put them to flight.
Songa nijohañe an-toe’e ey avao indaty rey nañarikatoke i tobey, le nitriban-day i valobohòkey; nikoikoike vaho nivoratsake.
22 They blew the three hundred trumpets, and the LORD set every man's sword against each other throughout the camp; and the army fled as far as Beth Shittah toward Zererah, as far as the border of Abel Meholah, by 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 The men of Israel were gathered together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after Midian.
Hene kinoike boake Naftalý naho boak’ Asere naho boake Menasè o ana’ Israeleo le nifanontoñe vaho nihoridañe’ iareo t’i Midiane.
24 Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill country of Ephraim, saying, "Come down against Midian, and capture the waters, as far as Beth Barah, even the Jordan." So all the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and seized the waters as far as Beth Barah, even the Jordan.
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 They took the two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and they killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian. Then they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.
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.
