1Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people that were with him, rose up early, and pitched beside the well of Harod: so that the host of the Midianites were on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.
1 A ciya no, kala Yerub-Baal, kaŋ ga ti Jideyon, nga nda jama kulu kaŋ go noodin care banda, i tun za da hinay ka gata sinji Harod hari zuray jarga. Midiyan borey gata mo go i wano se azawa kambe, za Moore tudo gaa ka koy jine gooro ra.
2And the LORD said unto Gideon, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me.
2 Rabbi ne Jideyon se: «Jama kaŋ go ni banda, i baa gumo ay se, kaŋ ay ga Midiyan borey daŋ i kambe ra. Zama Israyla ma si fooma ay gaa ka ne: ‹Ay bumbo kamba no k'ay faaba.›
3Now therefore go to, proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whosoever is fearful and afraid, let him return and depart early from mount Gilead. And there returned of the people twenty and two thousand; and there remained ten thousand.
3 Day, ni ma koy ka fe jama kulu hangey ra ka ne: ‹Boro kulu kaŋ humburkumay goono g'a di, a goono ga jijiri mo, bora ma casu ka fun Jileyad ka nga koyyaŋ te!› » Boro zambar waranka cindi hinka no ka ye, a cindi zambar way.
4And the LORD said unto Gideon, The people are yet too many; bring them down unto the water, and I will try them for thee there: and it shall be, that of whom I say unto thee, This shall go with thee, the same shall go with thee; and of whomsoever I say unto thee, This shall not go with thee, the same shall not go.
4 Rabbi ne Jideyon se: «Hala hõ jama baa ay se. Day, ma kond'ey haro do. Ay g'i neesi ni se noodin. A ga ciya mo, boro kulu kaŋ ay ga ci ni se: ‹Woone ga koy ni banda,› nga no ga koy ni banda. Boro kulu mo kaŋ ay ne ni se: ‹Woone si koy ni banda› bora din si koy no.»
5So he brought down the people unto the water: and the LORD said unto Gideon, Every one that lappeth of the water with his tongue, as a dog lappeth, him shalt thou set by himself; likewise every one that boweth down upon his knees to drink.
5 Jideyon binde konda jama haro do haray. Rabbi ne Jideyon se: «Boro kulu kaŋ na haro haŋ da deene, sanda mate kaŋ hansi ga te, ma woodin ye waani kuray fo. Yaadin mo no boro kaŋ sombu nga kangey gaa haŋyaŋo se.»
6And the number of them that lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, were three hundred men: but all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water.
6 Borey kaŋ yaŋ na haro ku da ngey kambe ka zu, boro zangu hinza no i n'i lasaabu. Amma jama cindo kulu sombu no ngey ma haro haŋ se.
7And the LORD said unto Gideon, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the other people go every man unto his place.
7 Kala Rabbi ne Jideyon se: «Boro zangu hinza din kaŋ na haro zu, ay g'araŋ faaba d'i kambe, ay ma Midiyan borey daŋ ni kambe ra. Amma ma fay da jama kulu ma ye fu. Boro kulu ma koy nga kwaara.»
8So the people took victuals in their hand, and their trumpets: and he sent all the rest of Israel every man unto his tent, and retained those three hundred men: and the host of Midian was beneath him in the valley.
8 Zangu hinza din binde na jama hindoonayey sambu ngey kambe ra, da ngey hilley. Jideyon na Israyla borey kulu sallama, boro kulu ma koy nga kuuru-fuwo do. Amma a na boro zangu hinza din wo gaay. Midiyan borey gata go a cire ganda gooro ra.
9And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said unto him, Arise, get thee down unto the host; for I have delivered it into thine hand.
9 A ciya no, cino din ra Rabbi ne Jideyon se: «Tun ka koy i gata ra, zama ay n'i daŋ ni kambe ra.
10But if thou fear to go down, go thou with Phurah thy servant down to the host:
10 Amma da ni ga humburu zumbuyaŋo, ma ni bannya Pura sambu. Nin d'a ma zumbu care banda ka furo Midiyan borey gata ra.
11And thou shalt hear what they say; and afterward shall thine hands be strengthened to go down unto the host. Then went he down with Phurah his servant unto the outside of the armed men that were in the host.
11 Ni ga maa haŋ kaŋ i ga dede, woodin banda ni kambey ga gaabu kaŋ ga naŋ ni ma koy ka furo i gata ra.» Waato din gaa no a zumbu, nga nda nga bannya Pura care banda ka koy nango kaŋ wongu marga go gata hirro me gaa.
12And the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like grasshoppers for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand by the sea side for multitude.
12 Zama Midiyan borey da Amalekancey da wayna funay izey, i kulu go ga daaru gooro ra, danga day do cine, kaŋ i ga baa gumo. I yoy sinda me, danga teeku me gaa taasi baayaŋ cine.
13And when Gideon was come, behold, there was a man that told a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian, and came unto a tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it, that the tent lay along.
13 Waato kaŋ Jideyon kaa, kala boro fo go ga dede nga hangasin se hindiri fo kaŋ nga te. Bora ne: «Guna, ay na hindiri fo te. A go, sayir* buuru ize fo kaa ka kaŋ Midiyan borey gata ra, a furo kuuru-fuwo ra, a n'a kar kala a kaŋ, a n'a zeeri, kala a go ga kani ganda ka salle.»
14And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: for into his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host.
14 Hangasino tu a se ka ne: «Woodin manti hay kulu no kala Jideyon, Yowas izo, Israyla bora, a takuba no. A kambe ra no Irikoy na Midiyan borey daŋ, ngey nd'i kundey marga kulu.»
15And it was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and returned into the host of Israel, and said, Arise; for the LORD hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian.
15 Yaadin mo no ka te, saaya kaŋ Jideyon maa hindiro ciyaŋo, d'a feerijo, a sombu ka sumbal. A bare ka ye Israyla gata do. A ne: «Wa tun! zama Rabbi na Midiyan borey kundey daŋ araŋ kambe ra!»
16And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet in every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.
16 Boro zangu hinza din binde, Jideyon n'i fay kanandi hinza. A na hilli daŋ ikulu kambe ra, da kus'izeyaŋ kaŋ sinda hay kulu i ra kala yulbeyaŋ.
17And he said unto them, Look on me, and do likewise: and, behold, when I come to the outside of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so shall ye do.
17 Gaa no a ne i se: «Wa te ya-cine: araŋ ma laakal da ay. Mate kaŋ ay te, araŋ mo ma te yaadin. A go mo, waati kaŋ ay to gata me gaa ya-haray, a ga ciya mo, mate kaŋ ay te, yaadin cine no araŋ mo ga te.
18When I blow with a trumpet, I and all that are with me, then blow ye the trumpets also on every side of all the camp, and say, The sword of the LORD, and of Gideon.
18 D'ay na hilli kar, in da borey kulu kaŋ yaŋ go ay banda, araŋ mo ma hilli kar nangu kulu gata banda. Araŋ ma ne: ‹Iri ya Rabbi da Jideyon waneyaŋ no!› »
19So Gideon, and the hundred men that were with him, came unto the outside of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch; and they had but newly set the watch: and they blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers that were in their hands.
19 Yaadin no, Jideyon da boro zango kaŋ yaŋ go a banda kaa ka to gata me cin bindi, waato kaŋ batukwa daŋyaŋ mana baa gay. Jideyonyaŋ na ngey hilley kar ka kus'izey kaŋ yaŋ go i kambey ra bagu.
20And the three companies blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers, and held the lamps in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands to blow withal: and they cried, The sword of the LORD, and of Gideon.
20 Sata hinza kulu na hilley kar ka kus'izey bagu, yulbey go i se ga gay kambe wow ra. I na hilley kaŋ ngey ga kar din daŋ kambe ŋwaarey ra. I na jinde tunandi ka ne: «Rabbi da Jideyon takuba, nga neeya!»
21And they stood every man in his place round about the camp; and all the host ran, and cried, and fled.
21 Borey mo, i afo kulu kay nga nango ra gata banda. Midiyan borey kundey marga kulu binde jiti ka kuuwa ka ngey boŋ ceeci.
22And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and the LORD set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout all the host: and the host fled to Bethshittah in Zererath, and to the border of Abelmeholah, unto Tabbath.
22 Boro zangu hinza din na hilliyaŋ kar. Midiyan borey ra no Rabbi naŋ i afo kulu takuba ma gaaba nda nga cala wano, ka gaaba mo da wongu marga kulu. Wongu marga binde zuru kal i koy hala Bayt-Sitta, Zerera haray, kal i koy ka to Abel-Mehola, Tabbat haray.
23And the men of Israel gathered themselves together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after the Midianites.
23 Israyla borey margu za Naftali da Aser da Manasse kulu mo ka Midiyan borey gaaray.
24And Gideon sent messengers throughout all mount Ephraim, saying, come down against the Midianites, and take before them the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and took the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan.
24 Jideyon na diyayaŋ donton Ifraymu tondey laabey kulu ra ka ne: «Wa kaa ka Midiyan borey gaarey ka hari fondey kosaray i se, kala ma koy Bayt-Bara, da Urdun.» Ifraymu borey kulu binde margu ka harey kosaray ka to hala Bayt-Bara da Urdun.
25And they took two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew Oreb upon the rock Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side Jordan.
25 I na Midiyan mayraykoy hinka di, Oreb da Zeyeb. I na Oreb wi Oreb tondo do haray, Zeyeb mo i n'a wi Zeyeb reyzin kankamyaŋo do haray. I na Midiyan borey gana. I kande Oreb da Zeyeb boŋey Jideyon do Urdun daŋanta.
