Judges 8
1 And they said to him [the] man of Ephraim what? [is] the thing this [which] you have done to us to not to summon us that you went to fight against Midian and they quarreled! with him with force.
Na rĩrĩ, andũ a Efiraimu makĩũria Gideoni atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte ũtwĩke ũguo? Wagire gũtwĩta ũgĩthiĩ kũhũũrana na Amidiani nĩkĩ?” Nao makĩmũtetia mũno.
2 And he said to them what? have I done now like you ¿ not good [are] [the] gleanings of Ephraim more than [the] grape harvest of Abiezer.
Nowe akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩatĩa niĩ njĩkĩte ngerekanĩtio na inyuĩ? Githĩ kũhaara thabibũ cia Efiraimu ti kwega gũkĩra magetha mothe ma thabibũ cia Abiezeri?
3 In hand your he has given God [the] commanders of Midian Oreb and Zeeb and what? have I been able to do like you then it relaxed spirit their from on him when said he the word this.
Ngai nĩaneanire Orebu na Zeebu, atongoria a Amidiani moko-inĩ manyu. Nĩatĩa niĩ hotete gwĩka ngerekanĩtio na inyuĩ?” Maigua ũguo, marakara marĩa maamũrakarĩire namo magĩthira.
4 And he came Gideon the Jordan towards [was] passing over he and three hundred the man who [were] with him [were] exhausted and pursuing.
Gideoni na andũ ake magana matatũ, o na marĩ anogu, magĩtengʼeria thũ ciao magĩkinya Jorodani na makĩringa rũũĩ rũu.
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.
Nake akĩĩra andũ a Sukothu atĩrĩ, “Heei ita rĩakwa kĩndũ gĩa kũrĩa; nĩ ũndũ nĩ anogu biũ, na no ndengʼeretie Zeba na Zalimuna, athamaki a Midiani.”
6 And he said [the] officials of Succoth ¿ [is] [the] hand of Zebah and Zalmunna now in hand your that we will give to army your bread.
No anene a Sukothu makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Rĩu-rĩ, ũkĩrĩ ũranyiita Zeba na Zalimuna magakorwo marĩ moko-inĩ maku? Tũkũhe thigari ciaku irio nĩkĩ?”
7 And he said Gideon therefore when gives Yahweh Zebah and Zalmunna in hand my and I will thresh flesh your with thorns of the wilderness and with briers.
Nake Gideoni akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo mwoiga, rĩrĩa Jehova arĩneana Zeba na Zalimuna moko-inĩ makwa, ndĩĩtembũranga mĩĩrĩ yanyu na mĩigua ya werũ-inĩ na mahiũ ma nyeki-inĩ.”
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.
Oima kũu akĩambata nginya Penieli, akĩmooria o ta ũguo oorĩtie andũ a Sukothu, nao magĩcookia o ta ũrĩa andũ a Sukothu maamũcookeirie.
9 And he said also to [the] men of Penuel saying when return I in peace I will tear down the tower this.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩĩra andũ a Penieli atĩrĩ, “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ngaahũndũka hootanĩte-rĩ, niĩ nĩngamomora mũthiringo ũyũ mũraihu na igũrũ.”
10 And Zebah and Zalmunna [were] in Karkor and armies their [were] with them about fif-teen thousand all those [who] remained of all [the] army of [the] people of [the] east and those [who] fell [were] one hundred and twenty thousand man [who] drew [the] sword.
Nao Zeba na Zalimuna maarĩ kũu Karikori marĩ na ita rĩa andũ ta 15,000, acio oiki no-o maatigaire kuuma kũrĩ mbũtũ ya andũ a irathĩro; andũ 100,000 rĩa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ arĩa maarũaga na hiũ cia njora nĩ moragĩtwo.
11 And he went up Gideon [the] way of those [who] dwell in tents from [the] east of Nobah and Jogbehah and he attacked the army and the army it was security.
Gideoni akĩambata na njĩra ya andũ arĩa maikaraga hema-inĩ mwena wa irathĩro rĩa Noba na Jogibeha, akiumĩrĩra mbũtũ ĩyo hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ĩtegeragĩria kũrĩ na ũgwati.
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.
Zeba na Zalimuna, athamaki acio eerĩ a Midiani, makĩũra, nowe akĩmatengʼeria, akĩmanyiita, na akĩhoota mbũtũ ĩyo yao yothe.
13 And he returned Gideon [the] son of Joash from the battle from to [the] ascent of Heres.
Gideoni mũrũ wa Joashu akĩhũndũka oimĩte mbaara-inĩ, agereire Ihĩtũkĩro rĩa Heresi.
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.
Nake akĩnyiita mwanake wa Sukothu, na akĩmũhooya ũhoro, nake mwanake ũcio akĩmwandĩkĩra marĩĩtwa ma anene mĩrongo mũgwanja na mũgwanja a Sukothu, na nĩo athuuri a itũũra rĩu.
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.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Gideoni agĩũka, akĩĩra andũ a Sukothu atĩrĩ, “Aya nĩo Zeba na Zalimuna, arĩa mwanyũrũrĩirie ũhoro wao, mũkiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Anga nĩũkĩnyiitĩte Zeba na Zalimuna magakorwo marĩ moko-inĩ maku? Tũkũhe andũ aya aku anogu irio nĩkĩ?’”
16 And he took [the] elders of the city and [the] thorns of the wilderness and the briers and he taught with them [the] men of Succoth.
Agĩkĩnyiita athuuri acio a itũũra, nake akĩherithia andũ acio a Sukothu na mĩigua ya werũ-inĩ, na mahiũ ma nyeki-inĩ.
17 And [the] tower of Penuel he tore down and he killed [the] men of the city.
Ningĩ akĩmomora mũthiringo ũcio mũraihu na igũrũ wa Penieli, na akĩũraga andũ a itũũra rĩu.
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.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩũria Zeba na Zalimuna atĩrĩ, “Andũ arĩa mworagĩire kũu Tabori-rĩ, maahaanaga atĩa?” Nao magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩ andũ tawe, o ũmwe wao aahaanaga ta mũrũ wa mũthamaki.”
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.
Gideoni akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Acio maarĩ ariũ a baba, o na ariũ a maitũ. O ta ũrĩa Jehova atũũraga muoyo-rĩ, korwo nĩmwahonokirie mĩoyo yao-rĩ, ndingĩamũũraga.”
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.
Akĩgarũrũkĩra Jetheri, mũriũ wake wa irigithathi, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Moorage!” Nowe Jetheri ndaigana gũcomora rũhiũ rwa njora, tondũ aarĩ o kamwana kanini, na nĩetigagĩra.
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.
Zeba na Zalimuna makĩĩra Gideoni atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra, ũtũũrage arĩ we. Tondũ o ta ũrĩa mũndũ atariĩ noguo hinya wake ũigana.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Gideoni agĩũkĩra, akĩmooraga, na akĩruta irengeeri iria ciagemetie ngingo cia ngamĩĩra ciao, agĩthiĩ nacio.
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.
Andũ a Isiraeli makĩĩra Gideoni atĩrĩ, “Tũthamakĩre, wee, na mũrũguo, na mũrũ wa mũrũguo o nake, nĩgũkorwo wee nĩũtũhonoketie, ũgatũruta moko-inĩ ma Midiani.”
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.
Nowe Gideoni akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndikũmũthamakĩra, o na kana mũrũ wakwa. Jehova nĩwe ũkũmũthamakĩra.”
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.
Ningĩ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Harĩ ũndũ ũngĩ ũmwe ngũmũhooya, naguo nĩ atĩ o ũmwe wanyu aahe gĩcũhĩ kĩmwe gĩa gũtũ kĩa iria aatahire.” (Ũcio warĩ mũtugo wa Aishumaeli, gwĩkĩra icũhĩ cia thahabu matũ.)
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.
Nao magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũgũciheana tũkenete.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩara nguo thĩ, na o mũndũ agĩikia gĩcũhĩ ho kuuma kũrĩ indo iria aatahĩte.
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.
Naguo ũritũ wa icũhĩ icio cia thahabu aahooete wakinyire cekeri 1,700, mathaga marĩa mangĩ matatarĩtwo, na nĩmo mĩgathĩ, na nguo cia rangi wa ndathi iria ciehumbagwo nĩ athamaki a Amidiani, kana mĩnyororo ĩrĩa yarĩ ngingo cia ngamĩĩra ciao.
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.
Gideoni agĩthondeka thahabu ĩyo ĩgĩtuĩka ebodi, ĩrĩa aigire kũu Ofira, itũũra rĩake. Isiraeli othe makĩhũũra ũmaraya na ũndũ wa kũmĩhooya marĩ kũu, nayo ĩgĩtuĩka mũtego harĩ Gideoni na nyũmba yake.
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.
Ũguo nĩguo andũ a Midiani maahootirwo nĩ andũ a Isiraeli, na matiacookire kwambararia mĩtwe rĩngĩ. Matukũ-inĩ marĩa Gideoni aatũũrire muoyo, bũrũri ũcio ũkĩgĩa na thayũ mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna.
29 And he went Jerub-Baal [the] son of Joash and he dwelt in own house his.
Jerubu-Baali mũrũ wa Joashu nĩacookire gwake mũciĩ gũtũũra kuo.
30 And to Gideon they belonged seventy sons [who] came out of thigh his for wives many they belonged to him.
Na aarĩ na ariũ mĩrongo mũgwanja ake mwene, nĩ ũndũ nĩ aarĩ na atumia aingĩ.
31 And concubine his who [was] in Shechem she bore to him also she a son and he made name his Abimelech.
Nayo thuriya yake ĩrĩa yaikaraga Shekemu, nĩyamũciarĩire mwana wa kahĩĩ, ũrĩa aatuire Abimeleku.
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].
Gideoni mũrũ wa Joashu aakuire arĩ mũkũrũ mũno, na agĩthikwo mbĩrĩra-inĩ ya ithe Joashu kũu Ofira ya Aabiezeri.
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.
Gideoni akua-rĩ, andũ a Isiraeli o rĩngĩ nĩmahũũrire ũmaraya na Mabaali. Makĩrũgamia Baali-Berithu ĩtuĩke ngai yao,
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.
na matiacookire kũririkana Jehova Ngai wao, ũrĩa wamahonoketie akamaruta moko-inĩ ma thũ ciao ciothe iria ciarĩ mĩena-inĩ yao yothe.
35 And not they did loyalty with [the] house of Jerub-Baal Gideon according to all the good which he had done with Israel.
O na ningĩ nĩmagire gũcookia ngaatho kũrĩ nyũmba ya Jerubu-Baali (nĩwe Gideoni) nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ marĩa mothe mega aamekĩire.
