Judges 8
1 Àwọn àgbàgbà ẹ̀yà Efraimu sì bínú gidigidi sí Gideoni wọ́n bi í léèrè pé, kí ló dé tí o fi ṣe irú èyí sí wa? Èéṣe tí ìwọ kò fi pè wá nígbà tí ìwọ kọ́kọ́ jáde lọ láti bá àwọn ará Midiani jagun? Ohùn ìbínú ni wọ́n fi bá a sọ̀rọ̀.
And the men of Ephraim said to Gedeon, What [is] this [that] you have done to us, in that you did not call us when you went to fight with Madiam? and they chode with him sharply.
2 Ṣùgbọ́n Gideoni dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Àṣeyọrí wo ni mo ti ṣe tí ó tó fiwé tiyín? Àṣàkù àjàrà Efraimu kò ha dára ju gbogbo ìkórè àjàrà Abieseri lọ bí?
And he said to them, What have I now done in comparison of you? [is] not the gleaning of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer?
3 Ọlọ́run ti fi Orebu àti Seebu àwọn olórí àwọn ará Midiani lé yín lọ́wọ́. Kí ni ohun tí Mose ṣe tí ó tó fiwé e yín tàbí tí ó tó àṣeyọrí i yín?” Nígbà tí ó wí èyí ríru ìbínú wọn rọlẹ̀.
The Lord has delivered into your hand the princes of Madiam, Oreb and Zeb; and what could I do in comparison of you? Then was their spirit calmed towards him, when he spoke this word.
4 Gideoni àti àwọn ọ̀ọ́dúnrún ọkùnrin tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ tẹ̀síwájú láti lépa àwọn ọ̀tá bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ó ti rẹ̀ wọ́n, wọ́n dé Jordani wọ́n sì kọjá sí òdìkejì.
And Gedeon came to Jordan, and went over, himself and the three hundred with him, hungry, yet pursuing.
5 Ó wí fún àwọn ọkùnrin Sukkoti pé, “Ẹ fún àwọn ọmọ-ogun mi ní oúnjẹ díẹ̀, nítorí ó ti rẹ̀ wọ́n, èmi sì ń lépa Seba àti Salmunna àwọn ọba Midiani.”
And he said to the men of Socchoth, Give, I pray you, bread to feed this people that follow me; because they are faint, and behold, I am following after Zebee and Salmana, kings of Madiam.
6 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ìjòyè Sukkoti fèsì pé ṣé ọwọ́ rẹ ti tẹ Seba àti Salmunna náà ni? Èéṣe tí àwa yóò ṣe fún àwọn ológun rẹ ní oúnjẹ?
And the princes of Socchoth said, [Are] the hands of Zebee and Salmana now in your hand, that we should give bread to your host?
7 Gideoni dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Ó dára, nígbà tí Olúwa bá fi Seba àti Salmunna lé mi lọ́wọ́ tán èmi yóò fi ẹ̀gún ijù àti ẹ̀gún òṣùṣú ya ẹran-ara yín.”
And Gedeon said, Therefore when the Lord gives Zebee and Salmana into my hand, then will I tear your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness, and the Barkenim.
8 Láti ibẹ̀, ó lọ sí Penieli ó sì bẹ̀ wọ́n bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn náà dá a lóhùn bí àwọn ará Sukkoti ti dá a lóhùn.
And he went up thence to Phanuel, and spoke to them likewise: and the men of Phanuel answered him as the men of Socchoth [had] answered him.
9 Nígbà náà ni ó sọ fún àwọn ọkùnrin Penieli pé, “Nígbà tí mo bá ṣẹ́gun tí mo sì padà dé ní àlàáfíà, èmi yóò wó ilé ìṣọ́ yìí.”
And Gedeon said to the men of Phanuel, When I return in peace, I will break down this tower.
10 Ní àsìkò náà Seba àti Salmunna wà ní Karkori pẹ̀lú ọmọ-ogun wọn tí ó tó ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún ọkùnrin, àwọn wọ̀nyí ni ó ṣẹ́kù nínú gbogbo ogun àwọn ènìyàn apá ìlà-oòrùn, nítorí ọ̀kẹ́ mẹ́fà ọkùnrin tí ó fi idà jà ti kú ní ojú ogun.
And Zebee and Salmana [were] in Carcar, and their host [was] with them, about fifteen thousand, all that were left of all the host of the aliens; and they that fell [were] a hundred and twenty thousand men that drew the sword.
11 Gideoni gba ọ̀nà tí àwọn darandaran máa ń rìn ní apá ìhà ìlà-oòrùn Noba àti Jogbeha ó sì kọjú ogun sí àwọn ọmọ-ogun náà nítorí wọ́n ti túra sílẹ̀.
And Gedeon went up by the way of them that lived in tents, eastward of Nabai and Jegebal; and he struck the host, and the host was secure.
12 Seba àti Salmunna, àwọn ọba Midiani méjèèjì sá, ṣùgbọ́n Gideoni lépa wọn ó sì mú wọn, ó run gbogbo ogun wọn.
And Zebee and Salmana fled; and he pursued after them, and took the two kings of Madiam, Zebee and Salmana, and discomfited all the army.
13 Gideoni ọmọ Joaṣi gba ọ̀nà ìgòkè Heresi padà sẹ́yìn láti ojú ogun.
And Gedeon the son of Joas returned from the battle, down from the battle of Ares.
14 Ó mú ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin kan ará Sukkoti, ó sì béèrè àwọn ìbéèrè ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀, ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin náà sì kọ orúkọ àwọn ìjòyè Sukkoti mẹ́tàdínlọ́gọ́rin fún un tí wọ́n jẹ́ àgbàgbà ìlú náà.
And he took prisoner a young lad of the men of Socchoth, and questioned him; and he wrote to him the names of the princes of Socchoth and of their elders, seventy-seven men.
15 Nígbà náà ni Gideoni wá ó sọ fún àwọn ọkùnrin Sukkoti pé, “Seba àti Salmunna nìwọ̀nyí nípa àwọn tí ẹ̀yin fi mí ṣẹ̀fẹ̀ nígbà tí ẹ wí pé, ‘Ṣé ó ti ṣẹ́gun Seba àti Salmunna? Èéṣe tí àwa ó fi fún àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ tí ó ti rẹ̀ ní oúnjẹ?’”
And Gedeon came to the princes of Socchoth, and said, Behold Zebee and Salmana, about whom you reproached me, saying, [Are] the hands of Zebee and Salmana now in your hand, that we should give bread to your men that are faint?
16 Ó mú àwọn àgbàgbà ìlú náà, ó sì fi kọ́ àwọn Sukkoti lọ́gbọ́n nípa jíjẹ wọ́n ní yà pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹ̀gún ijù àti ẹ̀gún ọ̀gàn.
And he took the elders of the city with the thorns of the wilderness and the Barkenim, and with them he tore the men of the city.
17 Ó wó ilé ìṣọ́ Penieli, ó sì pa àwọn ọkùnrin ìlú náà.
And he overthrew the tower of Phanuel, and killed the men of the city.
18 Gideoni bi Seba àti Salmunna pé, “Irú ọkùnrin tí ẹ pa ní Tabori, báwo ni wọ́n ṣe rí?” “Àwọn ọkùnrin náà dàbí rẹ ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan wọn dàbí ọmọ ọba,” ní ìdáhùn wọn.
And he said to Zebee and Salmana, Where [are] the men whom you killed in Thabor? and they said, As you, so [were] they, according to the likeness of the son of a king.
19 Gideoni dáhùn pé, “Arákùnrin mi ni wọ́n, àwọn ọmọ ìyá mi. Mo fi Olúwa búra, bí ó bá ṣe pé ẹ dá ẹ̀mí wọn sí, èmi náà ò nípa yín.”
And Gedeon said, They were my brethren and the sons of my mother: [as] the Lord lives, if you had preserved them alive, I would not have slain you.
20 Ó yí padà sí Jeteri, ọmọ rẹ̀ tí ó dàgbà jùlọ, ó wí fún un pé, “Pa wọ́n!” Ṣùgbọ́n Jeteri kò fa idà rẹ̀ yọ láti pa wọ́n nítorí ó jẹ́ ọ̀dọ́mọdé ẹ̀rù sì bà á láti pa wọ́n.
And he said to Jether his firstborn, Rise and kill them; but the lad drew not his sword, for he was afraid, for he was yet very young.
21 Seba àti Salmunna dá Gideoni lóhùn pé, “Wá pa wá fún raàrẹ, ‘Nítorí bí ènìyàn bá ti rí bẹ́ẹ̀ ni agbára rẹ̀ yóò rí.’” Gideoni bọ́ síwájú ó sì pa wọ́n, ó sì mú ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ tí ó wà ní ọrùn àwọn ìbákasẹ wọn.
And Zebee and Salmana said, Rise you and fall upon us, for your power [is] as that of a man; and Gedeon arose, and killed Zebee and Salmana: and he took the round ornaments that were on the necks of their camels.
22 Àwọn ará Israẹli wí fún Gideoni pé, “Jọba lórí wa—ìwọ, àwọn ọmọ rẹ àti àwọn ọmọ ọmọ rẹ pẹ̀lú, nítorí tí ìwọ ti gbà wá lọ́wọ́ àwọn ará Midiani.”
And the men of Israel said to Gedeon, Rule, [my] lord, over us, both you, and your son, and your son's son; for you have saved us out of the hand of Madiam.
23 Ṣùgbọ́n Gideoni dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Èmi kì yóò jẹ ọba lórí yín, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọ mi kì yóò jẹ ọba lórí yín. Olúwa ni yóò jẹ ọba lórí yín.”
And Gedeon said to them, I will not rule, and my son shall not rule amongst you; the Lord shall rule over you.
24 Gideoni sì wí pé, “Mo ní ẹ̀bẹ̀ kan tí mo fẹ́ bẹ̀ yín kí ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan yín fún mi ní yẹtí kọ̀ọ̀kan láti inú ohun ti ó kàn yín láti inú ìkógun.” (Àṣà àwọn ará Iṣmaeli ni láti máa fi yẹtí wúrà sétí.)
And Gedeon said to them, I will make a request of you, and do you give me every man an earring out of his spoils: for they had golden earrings, for they were Ismaelites.
25 Wọ́n dáhùn pé, “Tayọ̀tayọ̀ ni àwa yóò fi wọ́n sílẹ̀.” Wọ́n tẹ́ aṣọ kan sílẹ̀ ọkùnrin kọ̀ọ̀kan sì ń sọ yẹtí kọ̀ọ̀kan tí ó kàn wọ́n láti ibi ìkógun síbẹ̀.
And they said, We will certainly give them: and he opened his garment, and each man cast therein an earring of his spoils.
26 Ìwọ̀n òrùka wúrà tí ó béèrè fún tó ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀sán ìwọ̀n ṣékélì, láìka àwọn ohun ọ̀ṣọ́ àti ohun sísorọ̀ tí ó wà lára ìlẹ̀kẹ̀ ọrùn àti aṣọ elése àlùkò tí àwọn ọba Midiani ń wọ̀ tàbí àwọn ẹ̀wọ̀n tí ó wà ní ọrùn àwọn ìbákasẹ wọn.
And the weight of the golden earrings which he asked, was a thousand and seven hundred pieces of gold, besides the crescents, and the chains, and the garments, and the purple cloths that were on the kings of Madiam, and besides the chains that were on the necks of their camels.
27 Gideoni fi àwọn wúrà náà ṣe efodu èyí tí ó gbé kalẹ̀ ní Ofira ìlú rẹ̀. Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì sọ ara wọn di àgbèrè nípa sínsin-ín ní ibẹ̀. Ó sì di ìdẹ̀kùn fún Gideoni àti ìdílé rẹ̀.
And Gedeon made an ephod of it, an set it in his city in Ephratha; and all Israel went there a whoring after it, and it became a stumbling block to Gedeon and his house.
28 Báyìí ni a ṣe tẹrí àwọn ará Midiani ba níwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò tún gbé orí mọ́. Ní ọjọ́ Gideoni, Israẹli wà ní àlàáfíà fún ogójì ọdún.
And Madiam, was straitened before the children of Israel, and they did not lift up their head any more; and the land had rest forty years in the days of Gedeon.
29 Jerubbaali ọmọ Joaṣi padà lọ láti máa gbé ní ìlú rẹ̀.
And Jerobaal the son of Joas went and sat in his house.
30 Àádọ́rin ọmọ ni Gideoni bí, nítorí ó ní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn ìyàwó.
And Gedeon had seventy sons begotten of his body, for he had many wives.
31 Àlè rẹ̀, tó ń gbé ní Ṣekemu, pàápàá bí ọmọkùnrin kan fún un tí ó pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Abimeleki.
And his concubine was in Sychem, and she also bore him a son, and gave him the name Abimelech.
32 Gideoni ọmọ Joaṣi kú ní ògbólógbòó ọjọ́ rẹ̀, ó sì pọ̀ ní ọjọ́ orí, wọ́n sì sin ín sí ibojì baba rẹ̀ ní Ofira ti àwọn ará Abieseri.
And Gedeon son of Joas died in his city, and he was buried in the sepulchre of Joas his father in Ephratha of Abi-Esdri.
33 Láìpẹ́ jọjọ lẹ́yìn ikú Gideoni ni àwọn ará Israẹli ṣe àgbèrè tọ Baali lẹ́yìn, wọ́n fi Baali-Beriti ṣe òrìṣà wọn.
And it came to pass when Gedeon was dead, that the children of Israel turned, and went a whoring after Baalim, and made for themselves a covenant with Baal that he should be their god.
34 Wọn kò sì rántí Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn, ẹni tí ó gbà wọ́n kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá wọn gbogbo tí ó wà ní gbogbo àyíká wọn.
And the children of Israel remembered not the Lord their God who had delivered them out of the hand of all that afflicted them round about.
35 Wọ́n kùnà láti fi inú rere hàn sí ìdílé Jerubbaali (èyí ni Gideoni) fún gbogbo oore tí ó ṣe fún wọn.
And they did not deal mercifully with the house of Jerobaal, (the same is Gedeon) according to all the good which he did to Israel.
