Judges 8
1 And the men of Ephraim say unto him, 'What [is] this thing thou hast done to us — not to call for us when thou didst go to fight with Midian?' and they strive with him severely;
Hiche jouhin Ephraim mipiten Gideon kommah hitin aseijun ahi, “Ipi dinga hitia hi neibollu ham? Midiante satdinga nahung kijot uva chu ipi dinga neina kou louvu ham?” atiuvin; lungnatah in Gideon chu ana kinelpiu vin ahi.
2 and he saith unto them, 'What have I done now like you? are not the gleanings of Ephraim better than the harvest of Abi-Ezer?
Ahin Gideonin adonbutnin, “Nangho toh tekah dinga ken ipi katohdoh beh am? Ephraim min lengpithei alolhah jouva amoh akhen hou chu Abeizer phungbah neocha ho lhosoh ga pumpi sanga tamjo hilouham?
3 Into your hand hath God given the heads of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; and what have I been able to do like you?' Then their temper desisted from off him in his speaking this thing.
Pathen’in Midian gal lamkai teni Oreb le Zeeb chunga galjona napeh to tekah thei dinga ken ipi katohdoh beh am ati. Ephraim mihon Gideon thusei chu ajah phat’un alunghan nao adailha tai.
4 And Gideon cometh in unto the Jordan, passing over, he and the three hundred men who [are] with him — wearied, and pursuing,
Gideonin amite jathum toh Jordan vadung ahinpal galkai jun ahi, athachol lheh jeng vangun agalmiteu chu anadel nalai jun ahi.
5 and he saith to the men of Succoth, 'Give, I pray you, cakes of bread to the people who [are] at my feet, for they [are] wearied, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna kings of Midian.'
Succoth alhun phat’un Gideonin akhopi lamkaiho kommah “Ka sepaite ho dingin anneh themkhat beh neipeuvin amahohi athachol lheh tauvin ahi. Keiman Midian lengte Zebah leh Zalmunna kahin del ahi,” ati.
6 And the heads of Succoth say, 'Is the hand of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thy hand, that we give to thy host bread?'
Ahinlah Succoth lamkaiten adonbut’un, “Zebah le Zalmunna chu hinman masauvin chujouteng keihon nasepaite vah naovinge” atiuve.
7 And Gideon saith, 'Therefore — in Jehovah's giving Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand — I have threshed your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness, and with the threshing instruments.'
Hichephat chun Gideonin ajah uvah, “Pakaiyin Zebah le Zalmunna chunga galjona eipehuva kahung kile lamteng leh gammang noiya konna kahin lah lingle molla natahsau kajep teldeh ding nahiuve,” atitan ahi.
8 And he goeth up thence [to] Penuel, and speaketh unto them thus; and the men of Penuel answer him as the men of Succoth answered.
Hichea kon in Gideon chu Paniel langah achetouvin amaho komma jong chun nehding an athum’in ahileh amahon jong hitobang machun anadonbut un ahi.
9 And he speaketh also to the men of Penuel, saying, 'In my turning back in peace, I break down this tower.'
Hijeh chun amanjong amaho komma chun, “Gal kahinjoa kahung kileteng hiche inting vumhi kaloi chimding ahi” atipeh tai.
10 And Zebah and Zalmunna [are] in Karkor, and their camps with them, about fifteen thousand, all who are left of all the camp of the sons of the east; and those falling [are] a hundred and twenty thousand men, drawing sword.
Hiche pet hin Zebah leh Zalmunna chu Karkor munnah epia sangsom le sang-nga toh aumkhom lhonnin ahi, hicheng hochu solang gamkaija pangkhom epia sangjakhat le sangsomni ana kithat holah’a amoh ho cheng chu ahiuve.
11 And Gideon goeth up the way of those who tabernacle in tents, on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and smiteth the camp, and the camp was confident;
Gideonin Nobah le Jogbebah solam mi kiveiho lampi chu akollin aum kimvellin, chuin Midian sepaite chu kiging manlouvin adelkhum tan ahi.
12 and Zebab and Zalmunna flee, and he pursueth after them, and captureth the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and all the camp he hath caused to tremble.
Midian lengteni Zebah leh Zalmunna anajamlhon in ahin, Gideonin adelsuh peh in asepaite jousetoh amattha tan ahi.
13 And Gideon son of Joash turneth back from the battle, at the going up of the sun,
Hiche jouchun Gideon chu agalsat munna konchun ahungkile in Heres lampi chu ahin jotnin ahi.
14 and captureth a young man of the men of Succoth, and asketh him, and he describeth unto him the heads of Succoth, and its elders — seventy and seven men.
Hichea chun Succoth na konna hung golhang khat amannin akhopi sunga thunei vaihom hole lamkai upa somsagi le sagi ho min chu ajihdoh soh tan ahi.
15 And he cometh in unto the men of Succoth, and saith, 'Lo Zebah and Zalmunna, with whom ye reproached me, saying, Is the hand of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thy hand that we give to thy men who [are] wearied bread?'
Gideon chu Succoth lang’ah akile in alamkai hou kommah chun hitin aseitan ahi, “Tuhin Zebah le Zalmunna chu hikommah aumtai, tumasanga nakom uva kahung chun nanghon noisetah in Zebah leh Zalmunna chu hinman masaovin chutengleh nasepaite thachol chu vahnao vinge natiuvin ahi.
16 And he taketh the elders of the city, and the thorns of the wilderness, and the threshing instruments, and teacheth by them the men of Succoth,
Hijouchun Gideonin akhopi lamkaiho chu gammang noija ahinlah lingle mol chun ajepmin hilchahna aneitan ahi.
17 and the tower of Penuel he hath broken down, and slayeth the men of the city.
Aman Peniel inting vumjong chu avochim’in hiche khopi sunga umho jouse chu athat gamtan ahi.
18 And he saith unto Zebah and unto Zalmunna, 'How — the men whom ye slew in Tabor?' and they say, 'As thou — so they, one — as the form of the king's sons.'
Hijouchun Gideonin Zebah leh Zalmunna chu adongin “Tabor munna natha hou chu itobang mi hiuvam” ati. Ama nin adonbutnin “Nang tobang ahiuve, amahon chun lengcha hina limle mel apu cheh uve,” ati lhonin ahi.
19 And he saith, 'My brethren — sons of my mother — they; Jehovah liveth, if ye had kept them alive — I had not slain you.'
Hichun aman jong, “Amaho chu kasopi pasal ho ahiuvin, keima kanu tah chate jeng ahiuve,” ati. Chujouvin Gideonin, “Hingjing Pakai minna kasei ahi, amaho chu anathat hihleu chun tunia hi nangni katha lhonlou ding ahi,” tin asaptho jengin tan ahi.
20 And he saith to Jether his first-born, 'Rise, slay them;' and the young man hath not drawn his sword, for he hath been afraid, for he [is] yet a youth.
Chuin Gideon kiheiyin achapa atahpenpa Jethar komma chun, “Kipat inlang ani lhonin that tan” ati. Ahin Jether chu chapangcha ahiyeh in akichan achemjam asatdoh ngam tapon ahi.
21 And Zebah saith — also Zalmunna — 'Rise thou, and fall upon us; for as the man — his might;' and Gideon riseth, and slayeth Zebah and Zalmunna, and taketh their round ornaments which [are] on the necks of their camels.
Hichun Zebah leh Zalmunna chun Gideon kommah asei lhonnin, “Pasal nahina tah langin, nangma tah in neithat jeng lhonnin,” ati lhonin ahi. Hichun, Gideonin amani chu athat in asangongsang ngong lhon’a thilmantam ho chu akilah tan ahi.
22 And the men of Israel say unto Gideon, 'Rule over us, both thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, for thou hast saved us from the hand of Midian.'
Hichun Israel ten Gideon komma chun “Nangle nachate chuleh natute changeijin kachung uvah vaihommin pangtauvin ajeh chu nangin Midiante a kon in neihuhdoh tauvin ahi,” atiuve.
23 And Gideon saith unto them, 'I do not rule over you, nor doth my son rule over you; Jehovah doth rule over you.'
Ahin Gideonin adonbut’in, “Kei kahin kachate ahin nachung uva vaihom pouvinge, Pakai joh in nachunguva vai ahomding ahi,” ati.
24 And Gideon saith unto them, 'Let me ask of you a petition, and give ye to me each the ring of his prey, for they have rings of gold, for they [are] Ishmaelites.'
Ahinlah keiman thilkhat kathum nomme, nanghon mikhat cheh in galmi natha houva konna nahin chomdoh u bilba chu neipeuvin ati. (Galmiho chu Ishmaelte ahiyeh un sana bilba akiba cheh u ahi).
25 And they say, 'We certainly give;' and they spread out the garment, and cast thither each the ring of his prey;
Amahon kipah tah in aseijun, “Peuvinge” atiuve. Hitichun amaho khatcheh in, galla ahin chomdoh lah uva kon in sana bilba hochu pon aphaovin aseplha sohkeiyun ahi.
26 and the weight of the rings of gold which he asked is a thousand and seven hundred [shekels] of gold, apart from the round ornaments, and the drops, and the purple garments, which [are] on the kings of Midian, and apart from the chains which [are] on the necks of their camels,
Hiche sana bilba hochu shekel sangkhat le jasagi aphan ahi, hichea panglou galla ahin chomdoh u adangho chu, lengte kijepna thilmantam ho, Midian engthen akivonnu ponsandup hole asangongsao hou ngonga a-opeh u thil mantamho jouse jong ahinalaiye.
27 and Gideon maketh it into an ephod, and setteth it up in his city, in Ophrah, and all Israel go a-whoring after it there, and it is to Gideon and to his house for a snare.
Gideonin hiche sana hoa konchun ompho asemmin ama khopi Ophrah munna akoiyin ahi. Ahinla gangtah in Israelten hichu ahin hou un kisuhboh nan aneiyun, hichu Gideon le ainsung mite dingin kipalna in ahung pangtai.
28 And Midian is humbled before the sons of Israel, and have not added to lift up their head; and the land resteth forty years in the days of Gideon.
Hitihin Israelten Midiante chu ana sunem’un ahileh hichekah chu Midiante akiledoh jouta pouvin ahi. Hichea konchn Gideon hinlai sunga kum somli sungin gamsung’ah chamna alengin ahi.
29 And Jerubbaal son of Joash goeth and dwelleth in his own house,
Hiche jouchun Joash chapa Gideon chu ainlanga akiletan ahi.
30 and to Gideon there have been seventy sons, coming out of his loin, for he had many wives;
Aman chapa som sagi aneiyin ahi, ajeh chu amah in ji tamtah aneijeh ahi.
31 and his concubine, who [is] in Shechem, hath born to him — even she — a son, and he appointeth his name Abimelech.
Aman Shechem munna thaikem khat ananeijin, amanu chun chapa khat ahinpeh in amin Abimelech ahi.
32 And Gideon son of Joash dieth, in a good old age, and is buried in the burying-place of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abi-Ezrite.
Gideon athichun ateh lheh jengtan ahi, amachu Abiezer phungmite gamsunga um Ophrah munnah apa Joash lhankhuh a anavui tauvin ahi.
33 And it cometh to pass, when Gideon [is] dead, that the sons of Israel turn back and go a-whoring after the Baalim, and set over them Baal-Berith for a god;
Gideon thijou jouvin Israelte chu amahole amaho akisuboh un Baal chu a pathen’in akisemmun Baal doilim semthuho chu anahouvun ahi.
34 and the sons of Israel have not remembered Jehovah their God, who is delivering them out of the hand of all their enemies round about,
Amahon avelluva cheng agalmite jouseuva konna ahin huhdoh uva a Pakai a Pathennu chu asumil tauvin ahi.
35 neither have they done kindness with the house of Jerubbaal — Gideon — according to all the good which he did with Israel.
Amahon Israel mite dinga thilpha tamtah ana tongdoh a Jerub-baal kitipa Gideon insung mite jengjong janaleh gelkhohna imacha ana neitapouvin ahi.
