< Jij 7 >

1 Epi Jerubbaal (sa vle di Gédéon) avèk tout pèp ki te avèk li a te leve granmmaten e te fè kan an kote sous Harod la. Kan Madian an te vè nò de yo menm, akote ti mòn Moreh nan vale a.
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 SENYÈ a te di a Gédéon: “Pèp la ki avèk ou a twòp pou M ta delivre Madian nan men yo, paske Israël ta vin ògeye, e di: ‘Se pouvwa mwen ki delivre mwen.’
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 Pou sa, vin pwoklame nan zòrèy a tout pèp la, e di: ‘Nenpòt moun ki gen lakrent e k ap tranble, ke li retounen sòti nan Mòn Galaad.’” Konsa, venn-de-mil moun te retounen; men te gen di-mil moun ki te rete.
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 Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Gédéon: “Pèp la twòp toujou. Mennen yo desann kote dlo a, e Mwen va pase yo a leprèv pou ou la. Konsa li va ye ke si M di ou: ‘Sila a prale avè w’, l ap prale; men a tout sila ke M di w: ‘Sila a pa prale’, li pa prale.”
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 Konsa, li te mennen pèp la desann vè dlo a. Epi SENYÈ a te di a Gédéon: “Ou va separe tout sila ki lape dlo a avèk lang yo tankou chen ak, anplis sila ki mete kò l ajenou pou bwè yo.”
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 Alò, kantite a sila ki te lape dlo a, ki pa rale l nan men yo pou rive nan bouch yo se te twa-san lòm, e rès yo te mete yo ajenou pou bwè.
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 SENYÈ a te di a Gédéon: “Mwen va delivre nou avèk twa-san lòm sila ki te lape dlo yo e yo va mete Madyanit yo nan men nou. Pou sa, kite tout lòt moun yo ale, tout moun rive lakay yo.”
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 Konsa, twa-san lòm te pran pwovizyon a pèp la, avèk twonpèt pa yo nan men yo. Epi Gédéon te voye tout lòt mesye Israël yo chak nan pwòp tant pa yo, men te kenbe twa-san mesyè yo. Kan Madian an te anba nan vale a.
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 Alò, menm nwit lan, li te vin rive ke SENYÈ a te vin di li: “Leve, desann nan kan an, paske mwen te livre li nan men ou.
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 Men si ou pè desann, ale avèk Pura, sèvitè ou a, anba nan kan an.
sotheli if thou dredist to go aloon, Phara, thi child, go doun with thee.
11 Ou va tande kisa yo di: apre sa, men w ap vin fò pou ou kapab desann kont kan an.” Konsa, li te ale avèk Pura, sèvitè li a, anba kote avan-gad a lame ki te nan kan yo.
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 Alò, Madyanit yo avèk Amalekit yo ak tout fis a lès la, te kouche nan vale a. Yo te plis an kantite pase krikèt volan, epi chamo pa yo te twòp pou konte, an gran nonb tankou grenn sab bò lanmè a.
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 Lè Gédéon te rive, veye byen, yon nonm t ap revele yon rèv a zanmi li. Li t ap di: “Gade byen, mwen te fè yon rèv; yon mòso pen lòj te tonbe antre nan kan Madian an. Li te rive nan tant lan, li te frape li pou l te tonbe, e, konsa, li te vire l tèt anba pou l kouche plat.”
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 Zanmi li an te reponn: “Sa se pa anyen mwens ke nepe a Gédéon an, fis a Joas la, yon nonm de Israël. Bondye te mete Madian avèk tout kan an nan men li.”
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 Lè Gédéon te tande afè rèv la ak entèpretasyon li, li te bese an adorasyon. Li te retounen nan kan Israël la, e li te di: “Leve, paske SENYÈ a gen tan mete kan Madian an nan men nou.”
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 Li te divize twa-san lòm yo an twa konpayi, e li te mete twonpèt yo avèk krich vid yo nan men yo tout, avèk tòch yo anndan krich yo.
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 Li te di yo: “Gade mwen, e fè menm bagay la. Epi veye byen, lè m rive kote bò kan an, fè menm sa ke m fè a.
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 Lè mwen avèk tout sila ki avè m yo soufle twonpèt la, alò, nou, osi, nou va soufle twonpèt yo toutotou kan an, e nou va di: ‘Pou SENYÈ a e pou Gédéon.’”
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 Konsa, Gédéon avèk san mesyè ki te avèk li yo te rive bò kan an, nan kòmansman premye ve a, lè yo te fenk plase gad yo. Konsa, yo te soufle twonpèt la e te kraze krich ki te nan men yo.
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 Lè twa konpayi yo te soufle twonpèt yo e kraze krich yo, yo te kenbe tòch yo nan men goch avèk twonpèt yo nan men dwat pou soufle, e yo te kriye fò: “Yon nepe pou SENYÈ a ak pou Gédéon!”
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 Tout moun te kanpe nan plas li ki te antoure kan an, epi tout lame a te sove ale. Yo te kriye fò e yo te pran flit.
`bi the cumpas of the tentis of enemyes. And so alle `the tentis weren troblid; and thei crieden, and yelliden, and fledden;
22 Lè yo te soufle twa-san twonpèt yo, SENYÈ a te mete nepe a youn kont lòt e kont tout lanmè a nèt. Konsa, lame a te sove ale jis rive nan Beth-Schitta anvè Tseréra, jis rive nan Abel-Mehola akote Tabath.
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 Mesye Israël yo te rasanble sòti jis Nephtali avèk Aser ak tout Manassé, epi yo te kouri dèyè Madian.
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 Gédéon te voye mesaje toupatou nan peyi ti kolin Éphraïm yo. Li te di: “Vin desann kont Madian e pran dlo devan yo jis rive nan Beth-Bara avèk rivyè Jourdain an!”
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 Yo te kaptire de chèf dirijan a Madian yo, Oreb avèk Zeeb. Yo te touye Oreb nan wòch Oreb la, e yo te touye Zeeb nan pez divin Zeeb la, pandan yo t ap kouri dèyè Madian. Konsa, yo te pote tèt a Oreb avèk Zeeb bay Gédéon soti lòtbò Jourdain an.
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.
