1 Ket nasapa a bimmangon ni Jerubbaal (dayta ni Gideon) ken dagiti amin a tattao a kaduana, ket nagkampoda iti abay ti ubbog ti Harod. Adda ti kampo ti Midian iti amiananda iti tanap nga asideg iti turod ti More.
Then Jerobaal, who is the same as Gedeon, rising up early and all the people with him, came to the fountain that is called Harad. Now the camp of Madian was in the valley on the north side of the high hill.
2 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Gideon, “Adu unay dagiti soldado tapno pagballigienkayo kadagiti Midianita. Siguradoem a saanto nga agpalangguad ti Israel kaniak, a kunada, 'Insalakannakami ti bukodmi a pigsa.'
And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people that are with thee are many, and Madian shall not be delivered into their hands: lest Israel should glory against me, and say: I was delivered by my own strength.
3 Ita ngarud, iwaragawagmo kadagiti lapayag dagiti tattao a kunaem, “Siasinoman a mabuteng, siasinoman nga agpigpigerger, mapalubosan isuna nga agsubli ken pumanaw manipud iti Bantay Galaad.”' Pimmanaw ngarud dagiti 22, 000 a tattao ket 10, 000 ti nabati.
Speak to the people, and proclaim in the hearing of all, I Whosoever is fearful and timorous, let him return. So two and twenty thousand men went away from mount Galaad and returned home, and only ten thousand remained.
4 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Gideon, “Adu latta dagiti tattao. Isalogmo ida iti danum, ket pagbalinek a basbassit ti bilangda para kenka sadiay. No ibagak kenka, 'Makikuyogto kenka daytoy,' makikuyogto isuna kenka; ngem no ibagak, 'Saanto a makikuyog kenka daytoy,' saanto a makikuyog isuna.”
And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people are still too many, bring them to the waters, and there I will try them: and of whom I shall say to thee, This shall go with thee, let him go: whom I shall forbid to go, let him return.
5 Insalog ngarud ni Gideon dagiti tattao iti danum, ket kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Ilasinmo ti tunggal maysa a mangab-ab iti danum, a kas iti panaginum ti aso, kadagiti agparintumeng nga uminum.”
And when the people were come down to the waters, the Lord said to Gedeon: They that shall lap the water with their tongues, as dogs are wont to lap, thou shalt set apart by themselves: but they that shall drink bowing down their knees, shall be on the other side.
6 Tallo gasut a lallaki ti nagab-ab. Nagparintumeng dagiti dadduma a lallaki nga imminum iti danum.
And the number of them that had lapped water, casting it with the hand to their mouth, was three hundred men: and all the rest of the multitude had drunk kneeling.
7 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Gideon, “Babaen kadagiti tallo gasut a lallaki a nagab-ab, ispalenkayo ken pagballigienkayo kadagiti Midianita. Pagawidemon dagiti dadduma a lallaki iti bukodda a lugar.”
And the Lord said to Gedeon: By the three hundred men, that lapped water, I will save you, and deliver Madian into thy hand: but let all the rest of the people return to their place.
8 Innala ngarud dagiti napili dagiti abastoda ken dagiti trumpetada. Pinagawid ni Gideon dagiti amin a lallaki ti Israel, napan ti tunggal lalaki iti kampona, ngem pinagbatina dagiti tallo gasut a lallaki. Ita, adda ti kampo ti Midian iti babaenna idiay tanap.
So taking victuals and trumpets according to their number, he ordered all the rest of the multitude to depart to their tents: and he with the three hundred gave himself to the battle. Now the camp of Madian was beneath him in the valley.
9 Kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana iti dayta met laeng a rabii, “Bumangonka! Rautem ti kampo, ta pagballigienka iti daytoy.
The same night the Lord said to him: Arise, and go down into the camp: because I have delivered them into thy hand.
10 Ngem no mabutengka a sumalog, sumalogka iti kampo a kaduam ni Pura nga adipenmo,
But if thou be afraid to go alone, let Phara thy servant go down with thee.
11 ket denggem ti ibagbagada, ket mapaturedkanto a mangraut iti kampo.” Simmalog ngarud ni Gideon a kaduana ni Pura nga adipenna iti lugar a pagbanbantayan dagiti guardia iti kampo.
And when thou shalt hear what they are saying, then shall thy hands be strengthened, and thou shalt go down more secure to the enemies’ camp. And he went down with Phara his servant into part of the camp, where was the watch of men in arms.
12 Nagkampo idiay tanap dagiti Midianita, Amalekita, ken dagiti amin a tattao iti daya, a kas kapuskol iti pangen dagiti dudon. Saan a mabilang dagiti kamelioda; ad-adu ti bilang dagitoy ngem iti darat iti igid ti baybay.
But Madian and Amalec, and all the eastern people lay scattered in the valley, as a multitude of locusts: their camels also were innumerable as the sand that lieth on the sea shore.
13 Idi dimteng ni Gideon sadiay, adda maysa a lalaki a mangibagbaga iti tagtagainepna iti kaduana. Kinuna ti lalaki, “Denggem! Nagtagtagainepak, ket nakakitaak iti nagtimbukel a tinapay a sebada a nagtulidtulid nga agturong iti kampo ti Midian. Immay daytoy iti tolda, ket dinungparna daytoy iti napigsa isu a natuang ken nagbalibaliktad, isu a naiyaplag daytoy.”
And when Gedeon was come, one told his neighbour a dream: and in this manner related what he had seen: I dreamt a dream, and it seemed to me as if a hearth cake of barley bread rolled and came down into the camp of Madian: and when it was come to a tent it struck it, and beat it down flat to the ground.
14 Kinuna ti sabali a lalaki, “Awanen sabali no saan a ti kampilan ni Gideon daytoy (a putot a lalaki ni Joas), nga Israelita. Pinagballigi ti Dios isuna iti Midian ken kadagiti amin nga armadada.”
He to whom he spoke, answered: This is nothing else but the sword of Gedeon the son of Joas a man of Israel. For the Lord hath delivered Madian, and all their camp into his hand.
15 Idi nangngeg ni Gideon ti pannakaistoria iti tagtagainep ken ti pannakailawlawagna daytoy, nagrukob isuna a nagkararag. Nagsubli isuna iti kampo ti Israel ket kinunana, “Bumangonkayo! Pinagballiginakayon ni Yahweh iti armada ti Midian.”
And when Gedeon had heard the dream, and the interpretation thereof, he adored: and returned to the camp of Israel, and said: Arise, for the Lord hath delivered the camp of Madian into our hands.
16 Biningayna ti tallo gasut a lallaki iti tallo a bunggoy, ket inikkanna amin ida kadagiti trumpeta ken banga nga awan naggianna, nga addaan kadagiti pagsilawan iti uneg ti tunggal banga.
And he divided the three hundred men into three parts, and gave them trumpets in their hands, and empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.
17 Kinunana kadakuada, “Kitaendak ket aramidenyo ti aramidek. Buyaendak! Inton dumtengak iti igid ti kampo, masapul nga aramidenyo ti aramidek.
And he said to them: What you shall see me do, do you the same: I will go into one part of the camp, and do you as I shall do.
18 Inton paguniek ti trumpeta, siak ken dagiti amin a kaduak, ket pagunienyo met dagiti trumpetayo iti tunggal sikigan ti entero a kampo ken ipukkawyo, 'Para kenni Yahweh ken para kenni Gideon!”'
When the trumpet shall sound in my hand, do you also blow the trumpets on every side of the camp.
19 Dimteng ngarud ni Gideon ken ti sangagasut a lallaki a kaduana iti igid ti kampo, sakbay iti pangrugian ti pangtengnga nga agbantay. Apaman nga agsuksukat pay laeng dagiti Midianita iti guardia, pinagunida dagiti tangguyob ken binurakda dagiti banga nga iggemda.
And Gedeon, and the three hundred men that were with him, went into part of the camp, at the beginning of the midnight watch, and the watchmen being alarmed, they began to sound their trumpets, and to clap the pitchers one against another.
20 Pinaguni dagiti tallo a bunggoy dagiti tangguyob ken binurakda dagiti banga. Iniggamanda dagiti pagsilawan iti makannigid nga imada ken dagiti tangguyob iti makannawanda tapno pagunien dagitoy. Impukkawda, “Ti kampilan ni Yahweh ken ni Gideon.”
And when they sounded their trumpets in three places round about the camp, and had broken their pitchers, they held their lamps in their left hands, and with their right hands the trumpets which they blew, and they cried out: The sword of the Lord and of Gedeon;
21 Nagtakder ti tunggal lalaki iti lugarna iti aglawlaw ti kampo ket nagtataray dagiti amin nga armada dagiti Midianita. Nagririaw ken nagtatarayda.
Standing every man in his place round about the enemies’ camp. So all the camp was troubled, and crying out and howling they fled away.
22 Idi pinagunida ti tallo gasut a tangguyob, ingkabil ni Yahweh ti tunggal kampilan ti Midianita a lalaki a maibusor iti kaduana ken maibusor kadagiti amin nga armadada. Nagtaray ti armada agingga iti Bet-sitta nga agturong iti Serera, agingga iti beddeng ti Abel-Mehola iti asideg ti Tabat.
And the three hundred men nevertheless persisted sounding the trumpets. And the Lord sent the sword into all the camp, and they killed one another,
23 Naguummong dagiti lallaki ti Israel a nagtaud iti Neftali, Aser, ken dagiti amin a Manasses, ket kinamatda ti Midian.
Fleeing as far as Bethsetta, and the border of Abelmahula in Tebbath. But the men of Israel shouting from Nephtali and Aser, and from all Manasses pursued after Madian.
24 Nangibaon ni Gideon kadagiti mensahero iti entero a katurturodan a pagilian ti Efraim, a kinunada, “Sumalogkayo a maibusor iti Midian ket bantayanyo ti Karayan Jordan, agingga iti Bet-bara, tapno pagsardengen ida.” Naguummong ngarud dagiti amin a lallaki ti Efraim ket binantayanda dagiti danum, agingga iti Bet-bara ken iti Karayan Jordan.
And Gedeon sent messengers into all mount Ephraim, saying: Come down to meet Madian, and take the waters before them to Bethbera and the Jordan. And all Ephraim shouted, and took the waters before them and the Jordan as far as Bethbera.
25 Tiniliwda ti dua a prinsipe ti Midian, da Oreb ken Zeeb. Pinatayda ni Oreb iti ayan ti bato ni Oreb, ket pinatayda ni Zeeb iti ayan ti pagpespesan ti ubas ni Zeeb. Kinamatda dagiti Midianita, ket impanda dagiti ulo da Oreb ken Zeeb kenni Gideon nga adda iti ballasiw ti Jordan.
And having taken two men of Madian, Oreb and Zeb: Oreb they slew in the rock of Oreb, and Zeb in the winepress of Zeb. And they pursued Madian, carrying the heads of Oreb and Zeb to Gedeon beyond the waters of the Jordan.
