5 And he said to [the] people of Succoth give please round loaves of bread to the people which [is] at feet my for [are] exhausted they and I [am] pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna [the] kings of Midian.

8 And he went up from there Penuel and he spoke to them like this and they answered him [the] men of Penuel just as they had answered [the] men of Succoth.
Anih loe to ahmuen hoiah Penuel ah caeh moe, nihcae khaeah to tiah a hnik let; toe nihcae mah doeh Sukkoeth avang ih kaminawk mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah a naa o.

Gideon loe Nobah hoi Jogbeh vangpui ni angyae bangah kaom, kahni im ah khosah kaminawk caehhaih loklam bang hoiah caeh moe, kamongah kaom Midian misatuh kaminawk to a hum.
12 And they fled Zebah and Zalmunna and he pursued after them and he captured [the] two - [the] kings of Midian Zebah and Zalmunna and all the army he routed.
Zebah hoi Zalmunna loe cawnh hoi ving; toe anih mah nihnik to patom moe, Midian siangpahrang Zebah hoi Zalmunna hnik to naeh pacoengah, nihnik ih misatuh kaminawk to hum pae boih.
13 And he returned Gideon [the] son of Joash from the battle from to [the] ascent of Heres.
To pacoengah Joash capa Gideon loe ni tacawt ai naah, misatukhaih ahmuen hoiah amlaem.
14 And he captured a young man one of [the] men of Succoth and he enquired of him and he wrote down to him [the] officials of Succoth and elders its seventy and seven man.
Sukkoth avang ih thendoeng maeto to naeh moe, lok a dueng; to naah to thendoeng mah Sukkoth avang thung ih ukkungnawk hoi kacoehta quisarih, sarihtonawk ih ahmin to tarik pae.
15 And he came to [the] men of Succoth and he said here! Zebah and Zalmunna whom you taunted me saying ¿ [is] [the] hand of Zebah and Zalmunna now in hand your that we will give to men your weary bread.

Sukkoth vangpui ih kacoehtanawk to a kawk moe, praezaek ih soekhring thing hoiah Sukkoth ih kaminawk to a boh.
17 And [the] tower of Penuel he tore down and he killed [the] men of the city.
Penuel vangpui ih imsang to a phraek moe, vangpui thung ih kaminawk to a hum.
18 And he said to Zebah and to Zalmunna where? [are] the men whom you killed at Tabor (and they said *L(abh)*) like you like them one [was] like [the] appearance of [the] sons of the king.
To pacoengah Zabah hoi Zalmunna khaeah, Tabor vangpui ah na hum hoi ih kaminawk loe kawbaktih kaminawk maw? tiah a dueng. Nihnik mah, To kaminawk loe nang baktiah oh o, siangpahrang capanawk hoiah anghmong, to kaminawk to ka hum hoi, tiah a naa.
19 And he said [were] brothers my [the] sons of mother my they [by] [the] life of Yahweh if you had let live them not I killed you.
Gideon mah, Nihcae loe kai ih nawkayanawk ni; kam no ih caa ah oh o. Angraeng loe hing baktih toengah, nihcae hinghaih na pathlung nahaeloe, kang hum mak ai, tiah a naa.
20 And he said to Jether firstborn his arise kill them and not he drew the young man sword his for he was afraid for still he [was] a young man.
Gideon mah a capa kacoeh koek Jether khaeah, Angthawk loe, hae kami hnik hae hum ah, tiah a naa. Toe anih loe nawkta ah oh moe, zit pongah, Jether mah angmah ih sumsen to aphong ai.
21 And he said Zebah and Zalmunna arise you and fall on us for [is] like the man strength his and he arose Gideon and he killed Zebah and Zalmunna and he took the ornaments which [were] on [the] necks of camels their.
Zebah hoi Zalmunna mah anih khaeah, Angthawk loe, na hum ah; nongpa loe a thacakhaih tawnh na ai maw? tiah a naa. To pongah Gideon mah caeh moe, Zebah hoi Zalmanna to hum, to pacoengah kaengkuu hrang tahnong pongah a-oihsak ih hmuennawk to a lak.
22 And they said [the] man of Israel to Gideon rule over us both you as well as son your as well as [the] son of son your for you have delivered us from [the] hand of Midian.
Israel kaminawk mah Gideon khaeah, Midian ban thung hoiah nang pahlong pongah, nangmah hoi na capanawk hoiah na caa patoeng mah kaicae hae na uk oh, tiah a naa o.
23 And he said to them Gideon not I will rule I over you and not he will rule son my over you Yahweh he will rule over you.
Toe Gideon mah nihcae khaeah, Kang uk o mak ai; ka capanawk mah doeh na uk o mak ai; Angraeng mah ni nangcae to uk tih, tiah a naa.
24 And he said to them Gideon let me ask from you a petition and give to me everyone earring of plunder his for earrings of gold [belonged] to them for [were] Ishmaelites they.
To pacoengah Gideon mah nihcae khaeah, Tahmenhaih maeto hnik ka koeh; misanawk loe Ishmael kami ah oh o pongah, kami boih mah nihcae khae hoi na lak o ih naa tangkraeng to na paek oh, tiah a naa.
25 And they said certainly we will give [them] and they spread out the garment and they threw there towards everyone earring of plunder his.
Nihcae mah, Palung angthawkhaih hoiah kang paek o han hmang, tiah a naa o. Nihcae mah kahni maeto baih o moe, kami boih mah lak o ih naa tangkraeng to kahni nuiah vah pae o.
26 And it was [the] weight of [the] earrings of gold which he asked for one thousand and seven hundred gold apart from the ornaments and the pendants and [the] garments of purple that [were] on [the] kings of Midian and apart from the necklaces which [were] on [the] necks of camels their.
To tiah hnik moe, paek o ih sui naa tangkraeng loe, shekel sangto pacoeng, cumvai sarihto oh; to pacoengah Midian siangpahrang mah angkhuk ih a-aem kaom hmuennawk, rong kamling kahninawk, tahnong ah a-oih ih hmuennawk, kaengkuu hrang tahnong ah a-oihsak ih hmuennawk doeh a lak o.
27 And he made it Gideon into an ephod and he placed it in city his in Ophrah and they acted as prostitutes all Israel after it there and it became for Gideon and for household his a snare.
To ih hmuennawk hoiah Gideon mah kahni to sak moe, a ohhaih ahmuen Oprah vangpui ah a suek; to naah Israel kaminawk boih mah to hmuen to bok o lat bae; to pongah to hmuen loe Gideon hoi angmah ih imthung takoh hanah patung ih dongh baktiah oh pae lat.
28 And it was subdued Midian before [the] people of Israel and not they repeated to lift up head their and it was at peace the land forty year[s] in [the] days of Gideon.
Israel kaminawk mah Midian kaminawk pazawk o pacoengah loe, misa angthawk o ai boeh. Gideon hing nathung prae thungah misa monghaih saning quipalito oh.
29 And he went Jerub-Baal [the] son of Joash and he dwelt in own house his.
Joash capa Jerub-baal loe angmah ih im ah oh hanah amlaem let.
30 And to Gideon they belonged seventy sons [who] came out of thigh his for wives many they belonged to him.
Gideon loe zu pop parai pongah, capa quisarihto sak.
31 And concubine his who [was] in Shechem she bore to him also she a son and he made name his Abimelech.
Shekem ah kaom a zula mah doeh capa maeto sak pae; anih to Abimelek, tiah ahmin sak.
32 And he died Gideon [the] son of Joash in old age good and he was buried in [the] tomb of Joash father his in Ophrah of [the] Abi-ezrite[s].
Joash capa Gideon loe mitong naah duek moe, anih to Abiezer kaminawk ohhaih ahmuen Oprah vangpui ah kaom ampa Joash ih taprong ah aphum o.
33 And it was just when he had died Gideon and they turned back [the] people of Israel and they acted as prostitutes after the Baals and they made for themselves Baal-Berith into god.
Gideon duek pacoeng nasetto doeh akra ai vop, Israel kaminawk loe Baalnawk khaeah takpum to zawh o let bae; Baal-Berith to angmacae ih sithaw ah sak o.
34 And not they remembered [the] people of Israel Yahweh God their who delivered them from [the] hand of all enemies their from round about.
Ahmuen kruekah kaom misanawk ban thung hoiah pahlongkung, angmacae ih Angraeng Sithaw to panoek o ai boeh.
35 And not they did loyalty with [the] house of Jerub-Baal Gideon according to all the good which he had done with Israel.
Nihcae nuiah kahoih hmuen sahkung, Jerub-Baal (Gideon) imthung takoh nuiah doeh tahmenhaih tawn o ai.
