Judges 6
1 And the sons of Israel do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and Jehovah giveth them into the hand of Midian seven years,
Ie amy zao nanao haratiañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà o ana’ Israeleo, naho nitolora’ Iehovà am-pità’ i Midiane fito taoñe.
2 and the hand of Midian is strong against Israel, from the presence of Midian have the sons of Israel made for themselves the flowings which [are] in the mountains, and the caves, and the strongholds.
Le nitan-kagàñe am’ Israele ty fità’ o nte-Midianeo kanao nihaly lakato ambohitsey naho kobom-pipalirañe ty amo nte-Midianeo o ana’ Israeleo.
3 And it hath been, if Israel hath sowed, that Midian hath come up, and Amalek, and the sons of the east, yea, they have come up against him,
Amy te, ie vata’e nitongy o ana’ Israeleo, le nionjomb’eo o nte-Midianeo naho o nte-Amalekeo vaho o anan-tatiñanañeo haname iareo,
4 and encamp against them, and destroy the increase of the land till thine entering Gaza; and they leave no sustenance in Israel, either sheep, or ox, or ass;
hitobea’e, hampiantoe’e ty voka’ i tane’ Israeley pak’ Azà añe, le tsy apo’ iareo e Israele ao ty hahaveloñe añondry ndra añombe ndra borìke.
5 for they and their cattle come up, with their tents; they come in as the fulness of the locust for multitude, and of them and of their cattle there is no number, and they come into the land to destroy it.
Ie nionjoñe mb’eo reketse hare naho kibohotse ami’ty havalobohò’e hoe valala, ie naho o rameva’ iareo tsy nihay iaheñeo, te nimoak’ an-tane ao hamongots’ aze.
6 And Israel is very weak from the presence of Midian, and the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah.
Nampifotsake Israele ambane ty Midiane; vaho nikoaik’ am’ Iehovà o ana’ Israeleo.
7 And it cometh to pass when the sons of Israel have cried unto Jehovah, concerning Midian,
Aa ie nitoreove’ o ana’ Israeleo am’ Iehovà i Midiane,
8 that Jehovah sendeth a man, a prophet, unto the sons of Israel, and he saith to them, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, I — I have brought you up out of Egypt, and I bring you out from a house of servants,
le nañitrifa’ Iehovà mpitoky o ana’ Israeleo, le hoe re am’ iereo, Hoe ty tsara’ Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israele; Nakareko boake Mitsraime añe nahareo vaho nampionjoneko hirik’ an-trañom-pañondevozañe ao;
9 and I deliver you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all your oppressors, and I cast them out from your presence, and I give to you their land,
le nivotsorako am-pità’ o nte-Mitsraimeo, naho am-pità’ o namorekekeo naho nataoko soik’ añatrefa’ areo vaho natoloko anahareo o tane’eo.
10 and I say to you, I [am] Jehovah your God, ye do not fear the gods of the Amorite in whose land ye are dwelling: — and ye have not hearkened to My voice.'
Aa hoe ty asako ama’ areo: Izaho Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo; ko añeveña’ areo o ‘ndraharen-te-Amoreo, ie mimoneñe an-tane’e ao, fe tsy hinao’ areo ty feoko.
11 And the messenger of Jehovah cometh and sitteth under the oak which [is] in Ophrah, which [is] to Joash the Abi-Ezrite, and Gideon his son is beating out wheat in the wine-press, to remove [it] from the presence of the Midianites;
Aa le nivotrake eo ty anjeli’ Iehovà niambesatse ambane’ ty kile’ Ioase nte-Abiezere e Ofrà añe; namofoke vare-bolè ampipiritan-divay ao t’i Gidone ana’e haeta’e amo nte-Midianeo.
12 and the messenger of Jehovah appeareth unto him, and saith unto him, 'Jehovah [is] with thee, O mighty one of valour.'
Niheo ama’e i anjeli’ Iehovày, le nanoe’e ty hoe: Ama’o t’Iehovà ry fanalolahio.
13 And Gideon saith unto him, 'O, my lord — and Jehovah is with us! — and why hath all this found us? and where [are] all His wonders which our fathers recounted to us, saying, Hath not Jehovah brought us up out of Egypt? and now Jehovah hath left us, and doth give us into the hand of Midian.'
Le hoe t’i Gidone ama’e, O Talèko, kanao ama’ay t’Iehovà, ino ty nametsaha’e ze he’e zao? Aa vaho aia iaby o raha tsitantane’e natalilin-droae’ay ama’aio, ami’ty hoe: Tsy nakare’ Iehovà boake Mitsraime añe hao tika? fe naforintse’ Iehovà henaneo, vaho nasese’e am-pità’ o nte-Midianeo.
14 And Jehovah turneth unto him and saith, 'Go in this — thy power; and thou hast saved Israel out of the hand of Midian — have not I sent thee.'
Nitolik’ ama’e t’Iehovà nanao ty hoe: Akia ami’ty haozara’o hañaha Israele am-pità’ i Midiane; tsy fa niraheko?
15 And he saith unto him, 'O, my lord, wherewith do I save Israel? lo, my chief [is] weak in Manasseh, and I the least in the house of my father.'
Le hoe re tama’e: O Talèko, akore ty haharombahako Israele? hehe te boroka amy Menasè o taminga’aio vaho tsitso’e añ’ anjomban-draeko iraho.
16 And Jehovah saith unto him, 'Because I am with thee — thou hast smitten the Midianites as one man.'
Le hoe t’Iehovà ama’e. Toe ho ama’o iraho, le ho lafae’o hoe ondaty raike o nte-Midianeo.
17 And he saith unto Him, 'If, I pray Thee, I have found grace in Thine eyes, then Thou hast done for me a sign that Thou art speaking with me.
Aa le hoe ty natoi’e aze: Aa ie nahaoni-palalàñe am-pivazohoa’o eo, ehe toloro viloñe te Ihe ro nitsara amako.
18 Move not, I pray Thee, from this, till my coming in unto Thee, and I have brought out my present, and put it before Thee;' and he saith, 'I — I do abide till thy return.'
Ehe, ko mienga atoy, ampara’ te harineako, hibanabana naho hanjotsoako. Le hoe re, ho liñasako ty fibali’o.
19 And Gideon hath gone in, and prepareth a kid of the goats, and of an ephah of flour unleavened things; the flesh he hath put in a basket, and the broth he hath put in a pot, and he bringeth out unto Him, unto the place of the oak, and bringeth [it] nigh.
Aa le nimoak’ ao t’i Gidone, nañalankañe vik’ ose naho mofo tsy aman-dalivay ami’ty mona’e efà raike; napo’e an-karoñe ao i henay naho am-pinga-kodoboñe ao i ro’ey naho nibanabanae’e ambane’ i kiley vaho nazotso’e.
20 And the messenger of God saith unto him, 'Take the flesh and the unleavened things, and place on this rock — and the broth pour out;' and he doth so.
Aa hoe i anjeli’ Iehovày ama’e, Rambeso o henao naho o mofo pisakeo vaho apoho amo vato tiañe le adoaño ama’e ty ro’e. Aa le nanoe’e.
21 And the messenger of Jehovah putteth forth the end of the staff which [is] in His hand, and cometh against the flesh, and against the unleavened things, and the fire goeth up out of the rock and consumeth the flesh and the unleavened things — and the messenger of Jehovah hath gone from his eyes.
Natondro’ i anjeli’ Iehovà mb’ ama’e i kobay am-pità’ey le natsovo’e i henay naho i mofo tsy aman-dalivaiy, le nisolebotse boak’ amy vatoy ty afo namorototo i henay naho i mofo pisakey. Nienga am-pahaoniña’e amy zao t’Iehovà.
22 And Gideon seeth that He [is] a messenger of Jehovah, and Gideon saith, 'Alas, Lord Jehovah! because that I have seen a messenger of Jehovah face to face!'
Aa le nioni’ i Gidone t’ie anjeli’ Iehovà; le hoe t’i Gidone, Hoy abey! ry Talè Iehovà! te izaho nahatrea ty laharan’ anjeli’ Iehovà, tarehe naho laharañe.
23 And Jehovah saith to him, 'Peace to thee; fear not; thou dost not die.'
Le hoe t’Iehovà ama’e: Fanintsiñañe ama’o; ko hemban-drehe fa tsy hihomake.
24 And Gideon buildeth there an altar to Jehovah, and calleth it Jehovah-Shalom, unto this day it [is] yet in Ophrah of the Abi-Ezrites.
Nandranjy kitrely ho am’ Iehovà eo t’i Gidone vaho natao’e Iehovà-salome ty añara’e; ie e Ofrà’ o nte-Abiezeo henaneo.
25 And it cometh to pass, on that night, that Jehovah saith to him, 'Take the young ox which [is] to thy father, and the second bullock of seven years, and thou hast thrown down the altar of Baal which [is] to thy father, and the shrine which [is] by it thou dost cut down,
Ie amy haleñey, le nitsara’ Iehovà ty hoe: Andrambeso bania raike ami’ty anjomban-drae’o naho añombe fito-ay ho faharoe’e, le afetsaho ambane i kitreli’ i Baale aman-drae’oy vaho firao i Aserà marine azey;
26 and thou hast built an altar to Jehovah thy God on the top of this stronghold, by the arrangement, and hast taken the second bullock, and caused to ascend a burnt-offering with the wood of the shrine which thou cuttest down.'
le mandrajia kitrely ambone’ o lamilamio amy Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, am-pilahara’e do’e naho rambeso i añombelahy faharoey vaho engao am-pisoroñañe amy hataen’ Aserà finira’oy.
27 And Gideon taketh ten men of his servants, and doth as Jehovah hath spoken unto him, and it cometh to pass, because he hath been afraid of the house of his father, and the men of the city, to do [it] by day, that he doth [it] by night.
Aa le rinambe’ i Gidone ty lahilahy folo amo mpitoro’eo vaho nanoe’e i tsinara’ Iehovày. Fe nihembañe tsy nimete nanoe’e antoandro ty amy anjomban-drae’ey naho ty am’ ondati’ i rovaio, fa nanoe’e haleñe.
28 And the men of the city rise early in the morning, and lo, broken down hath been the altar of Baal, and the shrine which is by it hath been cut down, and the second bullock hath been offered on the altar which is built.
Aa ie nitroatse maraindraiñe ondati’ i rovaio, hehe te nirotsak’ ambane ty kitreli’ i Baale, naho finira ka i Aserà marine azey, vaho fa nisoroñañe amy kitrely niranjieñey i añombelahy faharoey.
29 And they say one to another, 'Who hath done this thing?' and they inquire and seek, and they say, 'Gideon son of Joash hath done this thing.'
Le hoe ty nifanoa’ iereo: Ia ty nanao o raha zao? Aa naho nañontane iereo, le hoe ty asa’e: Sata’ i Gidone ana’ Ioase zao.
30 And the men of the city say unto Joash, 'Bring out thy son, and he dieth, because he hath broken down the altar of Baal, and because he hath cut down the shrine which [is] by it.'
Aa le hoe ty asa’ ondati’ i rovaio am’ Ioase; Akaro i ana’oy, havetrake; amy te rinotsa’e ty kitreli’ i Baale; vaho finira’e i Aserà marine azey.
31 And Joash saith to all who have stood against him, 'Ye, do ye plead for Baal? ye — do ye save him? he who pleadeth for him is put to death during the morning; if he [is] a god he himself doth plead against him, because he hath broken down his altar.'
Aa le hoe t’Ioase amo nijohañe ama’eo: Hialy ho a i Baale hao nahareo? Hañaro aze hao? Havetrake aolo’ ty maraiñe ze hialy ho aze; aa naho ‘ndrahare re, angao harova’e kanao eo ty nandrotsake i kitreli’ey.
32 And he calleth him, on that day, Jerubbaal, saying, 'The Baal doth plead against him, because he hath broken down his altar.'
Aa le natao Ierob’ baale i tahina’ey ami’ty hoe: Angao hiatrek’ aze t’i Baale amy t’ie nandrotsak’ i kitreli’ey.
33 And all Midian and Amalek and the sons of the east have been gathered together, and pass over, and encamp in the valley of Jezreel,
Ie amy zao fa nifanontoñe iaby o nte-Midianeo naho o nte-Amalekeo naho o ana’ tatiñanañeo; nitsake vaho nitobe am-bavatane’ Iizreele ao.
34 and the Spirit of Jehovah hath clothed Gideon, and he bloweth with a trumpet, and Abi-Ezer is called after him;
Fe nivotrak’ amy Gidone t’i Arofo’ Iehovà le nitiofe’e i tsifay le nañampea’ o nte-Abiezereo.
35 and messengers he hath sent into all Manasseh, and it also is called after him; and messengers he hath sent into Asher, and into Zebulun, and into Naphtali, and they come up to meet them.
Le nampihitrife’e ty hanitsike i Menasè, naho nireketa’e, nampihitrifa’e ka t’i Asere naho i Zebolone vaho i Naftalý; le nionjomb’ ama’e mb’eo ka iereo nifanampe ama’e.
36 And Gideon saith unto God, 'If Thou art Saviour of Israel by my hand, as Thou hast spoken,
Le hoe t’i Gidone aman’ Añahare, Ho rombahe’o an-tañako hao t’Israele ty amy tsara’oy?
37 lo, I am placing the fleece of wool in the threshing-floor: if dew is on the fleece alone, and on all the earth drought — then I have known that Thou dost save Israel by my hand, as Thou hast spoken;'
Hehe te hapoko an-toem-pifofohañe eo ty volon’ añondry; aa naho amy volon’ añondriy avao ty zono vaho maike iaby o taneo, le hapotako te ho rombahe’o an-tañako t’Israele ty amy tsara’oy.
38 and it is so, and he riseth early on the morrow, and presseth the fleece, and wringeth dew out of the fleece — the fulness of the bowl, of water.
Aa ie izay; nañaleñaleñe re, le nifeahe’e i volon’ añondriy nañafake i zonoy vaho nahapea ty soakazo.
39 And Gideon saith unto God, 'Let not Thine anger burn against me, and I speak only this time; let me try, I pray Thee, only this time with the fleece — let there be, I pray Thee, drought on the fleece alone, and on all the earth let there be dew.'
Fe hoe t’i Gidone aman’ Añahare, Ko ampisolebore’o amako ty haviñera’o naho mbe ivolañako henaneo; angao hamentesako indraik’ amy volon’ añondriy. Ehe te i volon’añondriy avao ty ho maike, vaho ho tsitsike zono o taneo.
40 And God doth so on that night, and there is drought on the fleece alone, and on all the earth there hath been dew.
Aa le nanoen’ Añahare izay amy haleñey; i volon’ añondriy avao ty nimaike vaho nitsitsihen-jono o taneo.
