< Ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo 7 >
1 Gideon, ame si wogayɔna be Yerubaal kple eƒe aʋakɔ fɔ ŋdi kanya heyi keke Harɔd vudo la gbɔ. Midiantɔwo ƒe aʋakɔ ƒo ƒu ɖe Gideon ƒe aʋakɔ ƒe anyiehe lɔƒo le balime si le More to la gbɔ xa.
Therfor Jerobaal, which also Gedeon, roos bi nyyt, and al the puple with hym, and cam to the welle which is clepid Arad. Sotheli the tentis of Madian weren in the valey, at the north coost of the hiy hil.
2 Yehowa gblɔ na Gideon be, “Wò aʋakɔ la sɔ gbɔ akpa! Nyemaɖe mɔ mi katã miawɔ aʋa kple Midiantɔwo o, elabena Israelviwo ava ƒo adegbe nam be, ‘Míawoe ɖe mía ɖokuiwo to míawo ŋutɔ ƒe ŋusẽ me’
And the Lord seide to Gedeon, Myche puple is with thee, and Madian schal not be bitakun in to the hondis `ther of, lest Israel haue glorie ayens me, and seie, Y am delyuerid bi my strengthis.
3 Ɖo wò ame siwo nye vɔvɔ̃nɔtɔwo kple ame siwo dzidzi ƒo la ɖe aƒe.” Ale ame akpe blaeve-vɔ-eve trɔ dzo eye ame akpe ewo siwo nɔ klalo na aʋawɔwɔ koe susɔ.
Speke thou to the puple, and preche thou, while alle men heren, He that is ferdful `in herte, and dredeful `with outforth, turne ayen. And thei yeden awei fro the hil of Galaad, and two and twenti thousynde of men turniden ayen fro the puple; and oneli ten thousynde dwelliden.
4 Yehowa gagblɔ na Gideon be, “Ameawo sɔ gbɔ akpa. Kplɔ wo yi tɔ la to, ekema mafia ame siwo ayi kpli wò kple esiwo mayi o la wò. Ne megblɔ be, ‘Ame sia nayi kpli wò la’ ekema ayi, ke ne megblɔ be, ‘Ame sia mayi kpli wò o la’ ekema mayi o.”
And the Lord seide to Gedeon, Yet the puple is myche; lede thou hem to the watris, and there Y schal preue hem, and he go, of whom Y schal seye, that he go; turne he ayen, whom Y schal forbede to go.
5 Gideon kplɔ wo yi tɔ la gbɔ eye Yehowa gblɔ na Gideon be, “Ame siwo akpe nu ɖe tsi me eye woano tsi abe avu ene la, nanɔ hatsotso ɖeka me eye ame siwo adze klo eye woaku tsia kple asi ano la hã nanɔ hatsotso bubu me.”
And whanne the puple hadde go doun to watris, the Lord seide to Gedeon, Thou schalt departe hem bi hem silf, that lapen watris with hond and tunge, as doggis ben wont to lape; sotheli thei, that drynken with knees bowid, schulen be in the tothir part.
6 Ewɔ nenema eye ame siwo ku tsia kple asi heno la nɔ ame alafa etɔ̃, ame bubuawo katã nye ame siwo dze klo heno tsia abe avu ene.
And so the noumbre of hem, that lapiden watris bi hond castynge to the mouth, was thre hundrid men; forsothe al the tothir multitude drank knelynge.
7 Yehowa gblɔ na Gideon be, “Maɖu Midiantɔwo dzi kple ame alafa etɔ̃ siawo! Na ame mamlɛawo natrɔ ayi aƒe!”
And the Lord seide to Gedeon, In thre hundrid men, that lapiden watris, Y schal delyuere you, and Y schal bitake Madian in thin hond; but al the tothir multitude turne ayen in to her place.
8 Gideon xɔ anyikpluawo kple kpẽawo le Israelviwo si, ɖo wo ɖe aƒe eye ame alafa etɔ̃awo koe tsi anyi. Midiantɔwo ƒo ƒu ɖe balime si le Gideon te.
And so whanne thei hadden take meetis and trumpis for the noumbre, he comaundide al the tothir multitude to go to her tabernaclis; and he, with thre hundrid men, yaf hym silf to batel. Sothely the tentis of Madian weren bynethe in the valey.
9 Aƒetɔ la gblɔ na Gideon le zã me be, “Fɔ kaba! Kplɔ wò aʋawɔlawo, eye miadze Midiantɔwo dzi elabena mana miaɖu wo dzi!
In the same nyyt the Lord seyde to hym, Ryse thou, and go doun in to `the castels of Madian, for Y haue bitake hem in thin hond;
10 Ke ne èle vɔvɔ̃m la, ekema wò ɖeka yi futɔwo ƒe asaɖa la me, kplɔ wò subɔla Pura ɖe asi,
sotheli if thou dredist to go aloon, Phara, thi child, go doun with thee.
11 eye nàɖo to nya siwo gblɔm futɔwo le, ekema dzi aɖo ƒowò, eye nàtso enumake ɖe aʋa la wɔwɔ ŋu!” Ale Gideon kplɔ Pura ɖe asi eye wowɔ ɖɔɖɔɖɔ yi futɔwo ƒe nɔƒe.
And whanne thou schalt here what thei speken, thanne thin hondis schulen be coumfortid, and thou schalt do down sikerere to the tentis of enemyes. Therfor he yede doun, and Phara, his child, in to the part of tentis, where the watchis of armed men weren.
12 Midiantɔwo kple Amalekitɔwo kple dukɔ bubuwo tso ɣedzeƒe ƒo ƒu ɖe balime la abe ʋetsuviwo alo ƒutake ene eye woƒe kposɔwo sɔ gbɔ wu xexlẽ.
Forsothe Madian, and Amalech, and alle the puplis of the eest layen spred in the valey, as the multitude of locustis; sotheli the camelis weren vnnoumbrable, as grauel that liggith in the `brenke of the see.
13 Gideon te ɖe agbadɔ aɖe ŋu esime futɔwo dometɔ ɖeka ku drɔ̃e, ɖi vo, nyɔ tso alɔ̃ me teti henɔ drɔ̃e la lĩm na nɔvia. Egblɔ be, “Meku drɔ̃e dziŋɔ aɖe, abolo gã aɖe mli ge ɖe míaƒe asaɖa la me eye wòlɔ míaƒe agbadɔ la ƒu anyi gbloo!”
And whanne Gedeon hadde come, a man tolde a dreem to his neiybore, and telde bi this maner that, that he hadde seyn, I siy a dreem, and it semyde to me, that as `o loof of barly bakun vndur the aischis was walewid, and cam doun in to the tentis of Madian; and whanne it hadde come to a tabernacle, it smoot and distriede `that tabernacle, and made euene outirly to the erthe.
14 Ame evelia gblɔ be, “Gɔmeɖeɖe ɖeka koe le wò drɔ̃e la si. Gideon, Yoas ƒe vi, Israel ŋutsu la ava tsrɔ̃ Midiantɔwo kple dukɔ bubu siwo kpe ɖe wo ŋu la ƒe aʋakɔwo katã.”
That man answeride, to whom he spak, This is noon other thing, no but the swerd of Gedeon, `sone of Joas, a man of Israel; for the Lord hath bitake Madian and alle `tentis therof in to the hondis of Gedeon.
15 Gideon se drɔ̃e la kple eƒe gɔmeɖeɖe. Nu si ko wòte ŋu wɔ lae nye etsi tsitre ɖe afi ma eye wòkafu Mawu! Azɔ etrɔ enumake yi Israelviwo ƒe asaɖa me eye wòdo ɣli be, “Mifɔ kaba elabena Yehowa ana míaɖu Midiantɔwo ƒe aʋakɔ gã siawo dzi!”
And whanne Gedeon had herd the dreem, and `the interpretyng therof, he worschypide the Lord, and turnede ayen to the tentis of Israel, and seide, Ryse ye; for the Lord hath bitake in to oure hondis the tentis of Madian.
16 Gideon ma ame alafa etɔ̃ la ɖe akpa etɔ̃ me, tsɔ kpẽ kple anyikplu si me akakati le la na ame sia ame.
And he departide thre hundrid men in to thre partis, and he yaf trumpis in her hondis, and voyde pottis, and laumpis in the myddis of the pottis.
17 Ke eɖe eƒe ɖoɖowo me na wo hegblɔ be, “Ne míeva ɖo futɔwo ƒe asaɖaŋudzɔlawo gbɔ la, miwɔ nu si tututu mawɔ.
And he seide to hem, Do ye this thing which ye seen me do; Y schal entre in to a part of the tentis, and sue ye that, that Y do.
18 Ne nye kple nye amewo míeku míaƒe kpẽwo ko la, miawo hã miku mia tɔwo le asaɖa la ƒe akpa ɖe sia ɖe eye miado ɣli sesĩe be, ‘Míele aʋa wɔm na Mawu kple Gideon!’”
Whanne the trumpe in myn hond schal sowne, sowne ye also `bi the cumpas of tentis, and crye ye togidere, To the Lord and to Gedeon.
19 Ale Gideon kple ame alafa ɖeka siwo nɔ eŋu la ɖo Midiantɔwo ƒe asaɖa la ƒe gbɔto le zãtitina esime woɖɔli dzɔlawo teti. Woku woƒe kpẽwo eye wogbã anyikplu siwo le wo si.
And Gedeon entride, and thre hundrid men that weren with hym, `in to a part of the tentis, whanne the watchis of mydnyyt bigunnen; and whanne the keperis weren reysid, thei bigunnen to sowne with trumpis, and to bete togidere the pottis among hem silf.
20 Aʋalɔgo etɔ̃awo me nɔlawo hã ku kpẽawo, gbã woƒe anyikpluwo, lé akakatiawo ɖe mia eye wolé kpẽawo ɖe ɖusi hena kuku. Wodo ɣli sesĩe be, “Esia nye yi na Yehowa kple Gideon!”
And whanne thei sowneden in thre places bi cumpas, and hadden broke the pottis, thei helden laumpis in the left hondis, and sownynge trumpis in the riyt hondis; and thei crieden, The swerd of the Lord and of Gedeon; and stoden alle in her place,
21 Esi Gideon ƒe ameawo ɖe to ɖe asaɖa la la, Midiantɔwo katã lé du tsɔ eye wonɔ ɣli dom esime wonɔ dua dzi.
`bi the cumpas of the tentis of enemyes. And so alle `the tentis weren troblid; and thei crieden, and yelliden, and fledden;
22 Esi ame alafa etɔ̃awo ku kpẽawo la, Yehowa de zi asaɖa la me be wotsɔ yi ɖe wo nɔewo ŋu. Woƒe asrafowo si yi ɖe Bet Sita ɖo ta Zerera gbɔ va se ɖe keke Abel Mehola si te ɖe Tabat ƒe liƒo dzi ke.
and neuertheles the thre hundrid men contynueden, sownynge with trumpis. And the Lord sente swerd in alle the castels, and thei killiden hem silf bi deeth ech other;
23 Woyɔ Israelvi siwo tso Naftali, Aser kple Manase la, wodo go eye woti Midiantɔwo yome.
and thei fledden `til to Bethsecha, and bi the side, fro Elmonla in to Thebbath. Sotheli men of Israel crieden togidere, of Neptalym, and of Aser, and of alle Manasses, and pursueden Madian; and the Lord yaf victorie to the puple of Israel in that day.
24 Gideon dɔ dɔlawo wotsa le Efraim tonyigba la katã dzi nɔ gbɔgblɔm be, “Miɖi va dze Midiantɔwo dzi eye miaxe mɔ na woƒe Yɔdan tɔsisi la tsotso va se ɖe keke Bet Bera ke.” Ale woyɔ Efraim ŋutsuwo katã do goe eye woxe Yɔdan ƒe tɔtsoƒewo katã va se ɖe Bet Bera ke.
And Gedeon sente messangeris in to al the hil of Effraym, and seide, Come ye doun ayens the comyng of Madian, and ocupie ye the watris `til to Bethbera and Jordan. And al Effraym criede, and bifore ocupide the watris and Jordan `til to Bethbera.
25 Israelviwo lé Midiantɔwo ƒe aʋafia eveawo, Oreb kple Zeb. Wowu Oreb le agakpe si wotsɔ eƒe ŋkɔ na eye woyɔnɛ fifia be Oreb la gbɔ eye wowu Zeb le wainfiaƒe si woyɔna fifia be Zeb. Woti Midiantɔwo yome eye wotsɔ Oreb kple Zib ƒe tawo vɛ na Gideon le Yɔdan tɔsisi la godo.
And Effraym killide twei men of Madian, Oreb and Zeb; he killide Oreb in the ston of Oreb, forsothe `he killide Zeb in the pressour of Zeb; and `thei pursueden Madian, and baren the heedis of Oreb and of Zeb to Gedeon, ouer the flodis of Jordan.
