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 Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people who were with him, rose up early and encamped beside the spring of Harod. Midian’s camp was on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.
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.'
The LORD said to Gideon, “The people who are with you are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand, lest Israel brag against me, saying, ‘My own hand has saved me.’
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.
Now therefore proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, ‘Whoever is fearful and trembling, let him return and depart from Mount Gilead.’” So twenty-two thousand of the people returned, and 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.”
The LORD said to Gideon, “There are still too many people. Bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. It shall be, that those whom I tell you, ‘This shall go with you,’ shall go with you; and whoever I tell you, ‘This shall not go with you,’ shall not go.”
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.”
So he brought down the people to the water; and the LORD said to Gideon, “Everyone who laps of the water with his tongue, like a dog laps, you shall set him by himself; likewise everyone who bows down on his knees to drink.”
6 Tallo gasut a lallaki ti nagab-ab. Nagparintumeng dagiti dadduma a lallaki nga imminum iti danum.
The number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was three hundred men; but all the rest of the people bowed down on their knees to drink water.
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.”
The LORD said to Gideon, “I will save you by the three hundred men who lapped, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, each to his own 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 the people took food in their hand, and their shofars; and he sent all the rest of the men of Israel to their own tents, but retained the three hundred men; and the camp of Midian 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.
That same night, the LORD said to him, “Arise, go down into the camp, for I have delivered it into your hand.
10 Ngem no mabutengka a sumalog, sumalogka iti kampo a kaduam ni Pura nga adipenmo,
But if you are afraid to go down, go with Purah your servant down to the camp.
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.
You will hear what they say; and afterward your hands will be strengthened to go down into the camp.” Then went he down with Purah his servant to the outermost part of the armed men who were in the camp.
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.
The Midianites and the Amalekites and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like locusts for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand which is on the seashore for multitude.
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.”
When Gideon had come, behold, there was a man telling a dream to his fellow. He said, “Behold, I dreamt a dream; and behold, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian, came to the tent, and struck it so that it fell, and turned it upside down, so that the tent lay flat.”
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.”
His fellow answered, “This is nothing other than the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel. God has delivered Midian into his hand, with all the army.”
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.”
It was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, that he worshipped. Then he returned into the camp of Israel and said, “Arise, for the LORD has delivered the army of Midian into your hand!”
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.
He divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put into the hands of all of them shofars and empty pitchers, with torches within the pitchers.
17 Kinunana kadakuada, “Kitaendak ket aramidenyo ti aramidek. Buyaendak! Inton dumtengak iti igid ti kampo, masapul nga aramidenyo ti aramidek.
He said to them, “Watch me, and do likewise. Behold, when I come to the outermost part of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so you 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 I blow the shofar, I and all who are with me, then blow the shofars also on every side of all the camp, and shout, ‘For the LORD and for Gideon!’”
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.
So Gideon and the hundred men who were with him came to the outermost part of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch, when they had but newly set the watch. Then they blew the shofars and broke in pieces the pitchers that were in their hands.
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.”
The three companies blew the shofars, broke the pitchers, and held the torches in their left hands and the shofars in their right hands with which to blow; and they shouted, “The sword of the LORD and of Gideon!”
21 Nagtakder ti tunggal lalaki iti lugarna iti aglawlaw ti kampo ket nagtataray dagiti amin nga armada dagiti Midianita. Nagririaw ken nagtatarayda.
They each stood in his place around the camp, and all the army ran; and they shouted, and put them to flight.
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.
They blew the three hundred shofars, and the LORD set every man’s sword against his fellow and against all the army; and the army fled as far as Beth Shittah towards Zererah, as far as the border of Abel Meholah, by Tabbath.
23 Naguummong dagiti lallaki ti Israel a nagtaud iti Neftali, Aser, ken dagiti amin a Manasses, ket kinamatda ti Midian.
The men of Israel were gathered together out of Naphtali, out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued Midian.
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.
Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill country of Ephraim, saying, “Come down against Midian and take the waters before them as far as Beth Barah, even the Jordan!” So all the men of Ephraim were gathered together and took the waters as far as Beth Barah, even the Jordan.
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.
They took the two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb. They killed Oreb at Oreb’s rock, and Zeeb they killed at Zeeb’s wine press, as they pursued Midian. Then they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.
