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.
Namoonni Efreem, “Ati maaliif akkana nu goote? Yeroo Midiyaanin dhaʼuuf duultetti maaliif nu hin waamin?” jedhanii Gidewoon gaafatan. Akka malees isatti dheekkaman.
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.
Inni immoo akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Wanni ani hojjedhe yoo waan isin hojjettaniin wal bira qabame gatii maalii qaba? Qarmiin wayinii Efreem oomisha wayinii Abiiʼezer sana hunda hin caaluu?
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.
Waaqni hooggantoota Midiyaanotaa jechuunis Hereebii fi Zeʼeebin dabarsee harka keessanitti kenneera. Egaa ani waan isin hojjettaniin wajjin kan wal qixxaatu maal hojjechuun dandaʼa ture?” Yommuu inni waan kana jedhettis aariin isaan isatti aaran ni qabbanaaʼe.
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.
Gidewoonii fi namoonni isa wajjin turan dhibbi sadan dhufanii Yordaanos ceʼan; isaan akka malee dadhaban iyyuu ittuma fufanii jara ariʼan.
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.
Innis namoota Sukootiitiin, “Loltoota kootiif buddeena kennaa; isaan baayʼee na duraa dadhabaniiruutii; ani amma iyyuu mootota Midiyaanotaa jechuunis Zebaa fi Zalmunaa ariʼaa jira” jedhe.
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.
Qondaaltonni Sukoot garuu, “Loltoota keetiif nu buddeena kan kenninu ati Zebaa fi Zalmunaa harka keetti galfatteertaa?” jedhaniin.
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.
Gidewoonis deebisee, “Tole kaa, yommuu Waaqayyo dabarsee Zebaa fi Zalmunaa harka kootti kennutti ani qoraattii gammoojjiitii fi arangamaadhaan foon keessan ciccira” jedheen.
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.
Achiis gara namoota Phenuuʼeel dhaqee akkuma warra duraa sana kadhatetti isaanis gaafate; isaan garuu akkuma warri Sukoot deebisanitti deebii kennan.
9 And he said also to [the] men of Penuel saying when return I in peace I will tear down the tower this.
Kanaafuu inni namoota Phenuuʼeeliin, “Ani yeroo moʼadhee deebiʼutti gamoo kana nan jigsa” jedhe.
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.
Yeroo sanatti Zebaa fi Zalmunaan loltoota isaanii kanneen kuma kudha shanitti hedaman wajjin iddoo Qarqari jedhamu turan; isaan kunneenis loltoota namoota baʼa biiftuutii walitti qabaman keessaa hafan hundaa dha; warri goraadee hidhatan kumni kudha lama dhumanii turaniitii.
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.
Gidewoonis karaa warra baʼa Noobaahiitii fi Yogbihaatiin dunkaana keessa jiraatanii baʼee loltoota homaa hin birʼatin dhaʼe; raayyaan waraanaa sun of dagatee tureetii.
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.
Mootonni Midiyaan lamaan jechuunis Zebaa fi Zalmunaan ni baqatan; Gidewoon garuu ariʼee isaan qabate; loltoota isaaniis gargari bittinneesse.
13 And he returned Gideon [the] son of Joash from the battle from to [the] ascent of Heres.
Ergasii Gidewoon ilmi Yooʼaash karaa Malkaa Herees baʼee duulaa gale.
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.
Innis dargaggeessa Sukoot tokko qabee qorate; dargaggeessi sunis maqaa qondaaltota Sukootii fi maanguddoota magaalattii walumatti maqaa nama torbaatamii torba barreessee kenneef.
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.
Gidewoonis dhufee namoota Sukootiin, “Zebaa fi Zalmunaan isin, ‘Nu namoota kee warra dadhabaniif buddeena kan kenninu ati Zaabiheelii fi Zalmunaa harka keetti galfatteertaa?’ jettanii waaʼee isaanii natti qoostan sun kunoo ti” jedhe.
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.
Innis maanguddoota magaalaa sanaa fuudhee qoraattii fi arangamaa gammoojjiitiin adabuudhaan namoota Sukootiitiif barumsa kenne.
17 And [the] tower of Penuel he tore down and he killed [the] men of the city.
Gamoo Phenuuʼeelis jigsee namoota magaalattii fixe.
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.
Ergasiis inni, “Namoonni isin Taabooritti fixxan warra akkamiitii?” jedhee Zebaa fi Zalmunaa gaafate. Isaanis, “Namootuma akka keessanii kanneen hundi isaanii ilmaan mootii fafakkaatanii dha” jedhaniin.
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.
Gidewoonis deebisee, “Isaan obboloota koo ilmaanuma haadha kootii turan. Dhugaa Waaqayyo jiraataa, utuu isin isaan ajjeesuu baattanii ani isin hin ajjeesu ture” jedhe.
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.
Innis gara Yeteer ilma isaa hangaftichaatti garagalee, “Kaʼiitii isaan fixi!” jedheen. Yeeteer garuu sababii ijoollee taʼeef sodaatee goraadee isaa hin luqqifanne.
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.
Ergasiis Zebaa fi Zalmunaan, “Kaʼiitii atumti nu ajjeesi; ‘Jabinni namaa akkuma dhagna isaatii’” jedhaniin. Gidewoonis kaʼee isaan ajjeese; faaya morma gaalawwan isaaniis fudhate.
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.
Namoonni Israaʼelis Gidewooniin, “Ati waan harka Midiyaanotaa jalaa nu baafteef ati, ilmi keetii fi ilmi ilma keetii nu bulchaa” jedhan.
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.
Gidewoon garuu, “Ani isin hin bulchu; ilmi koos isin hin bulchu. Waaqayyotu isin bulcha” isaaniin jedhe.
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.
Innis, “Ani waa tokko isin kadhadha; kunis akka tokkoon tokkoon keessan qooda boojuu keessanii irraa lootii naa kennitanii dha” jedhe. Lootii warqee kaaʼachuun bartee Ishmaaʼeelootaa tureetii.
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.
Isaanis, “Nu gammachuudhaan kennina” jedhanii deebisan. Kanaafuu wayyaa lafa irra diriirsanii tokkoon tokkoon namaa boojuu isaa irraa lootii itti darbate.
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.
Amartiin warqee kan inni kadhate saqilii kuma tokkoo fi dhibba torba yookaan kiiloo giraamii kudha sagalii fi walakkaa ulfaata ture; kunis waan mormatti hidhatan, uffata diimaa dhiilgee kan mootonni Midiyaan uffatanii fi foncaa morma gaalawwan isaanii irra ture hin dabalatu.
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.
Gidewoonis warqee sanaan dirata tolchee magaalaa itti dhalate Ofraa keessa kaaʼe. Israaʼeloonni hundis achitti efuudicha waaqeffachuudhaan sagaagalan. Kunis Gidewooniif maatii isaatti kiyyoo taʼe.
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.
Midiyaanonnis akkasiin fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti moʼataman; lammatas mataa isaanii ol hin qabanne. Biyyattiinis bara Gidewoon keessa waggaa afurtama nagaa argatte.
29 And he went Jerub-Baal [the] son of Joash and he dwelt in own house his.
Yerub-Baʼaal ilmi Yooʼaash achi jiraachuuf gara mana ofii isaatti deebiʼe.
30 And to Gideon they belonged seventy sons [who] came out of thigh his for wives many they belonged to him.
Inni sababii niitota baayʼee fuudheef ilmaan torbaatama qaba ture.
31 And concubine his who [was] in Shechem she bore to him also she a son and he made name his Abimelech.
Saajjatoon isaa kan Sheekem keessa jiraachaa turtes ilma deesseefii turte; innis Abiimelek jedhee isa moggaase.
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].
Gidewoon ilmi Yooʼaash bara dheeraa jiraatee duʼe. Innis Ofraa biyya Abiiʼezerootaa keessatti, lafa awwaala abbaa isaa Yooʼaashitti awwaalame.
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.
Akkuma Gidewoon duʼeen Israaʼeloonni amma illee Baʼaal wajjin sagaagalan. Baʼaal Beriitinis Waaqa isaanii godhatanii
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.
Waaqayyo Waaqa isaanii kan harka diinota isaanii hundumaa jalaa isaan baase sana dagatan.
35 And not they did loyalty with [the] house of Jerub-Baal Gideon according to all the good which he had done with Israel.
Isaanis maatii Yerub-Baʼaaliif jechuunis Gidewooniif waan gaarii inni isaaniif godhe hunda yaadatanii arjummaa hin gooneef.
