Judges 7
1 And Jerobaal rose early, the same is Gedeon, and all the people with him, and encamped at the fountain of Arad; and the camp of Madiam was to the north of him, [reaching] from Gabaathamorai, in the valley.
Sie len ah Gideon ac mwet lal nukewa toang tukakek ac tulokinya lohm nuknuk selos sisken Unon in Kof Harod. Ac mwet Midian elos muta infahlfal uh nu epang in Eol Moreh.
2 And the Lord said to Gedeon, The people with you [are] many, so that I may not deliver Madiam into their hand, lest at any time Israel boast against me, saying, My hand has saved me.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Gideon, “Mwet ma wi kom inge arulana pusla nu ke kutangla se nga ac sang nu selos fin mwet Midian inge. Sahp ac tuh oru elos nunku mu elos sifacna pa oru kutangla se inge, ac elos tiana akilenyu kac.
3 And now speak in the ears of the people, saying, Who [is] afraid and fearful? let him turn and depart from mount Galaad: and there returned of the people twenty-two thousand, and ten thousand were left.
Fahk nu sin mwet an, ‘Fin oasr mwet sangeng, in folokla nu yen selos an, ac kut ac mutana in acn se inge ke Fineol Gilead.’” Na tausin longoul luo selos folokla, ac tausin singoul na muta.
4 And the Lord said to Gedeon, The people is yet numerous; bring them down to the water, and I will purge them there for you: and it shall come to pass that of whoever I shall say to you, This one shall go with you, [even] he shall go with you; and of whoever I shall say to you, This one shall not go with you, [even] he shall not go with you.
Na LEUM GOD El sifil fahk nu sel Gideon, “Srakna pusla mwet an. Pwanulosla nu infacl ah, ac nga ac fah sraclik mwet an we. Nga fin fahk mu mwet se ac fal in wi, na el wi. Ac nga fin mu mwet se tia fal in wi, na el tia wi.”
5 And he brought the people down to the water; and the Lord said to Gedeon, Whosoever shall lap of the water with his tongue as if a dog should lap, you shall set him apart, and [also] whoever shall bow down upon his knees to drink.
Na Gideon el usya mwet uh nu infacl ah. Ac LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Srela mwet nukewa ma nim kof ke lohulos oana kosro ngalngul uh liki mwet nukewa su sikukmutunte ke elos nim kof an.”
6 And the number of those that lapped with their hand to their mouth was three hundred men; and all the rest of the people bowed upon their knees to drink water.
Oasr mwet tolfoko na su yucukak kof inpaolos ac nim ke lohulos, a mwet saya nukewa elos sikukmutunte ac nim kof.
7 And the Lord said to Gedeon, I will save you by the three hundred men that lapped, and I will give Madiam into your hand; and all the [rest of the] people shall go every one to his place.
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Gideon, “Nga ac fah molikomla ac sot kutangla nu sum fin mwet Midian inge ke mwet tolfoko na ma nim kof ke lohulos inge. Fahkang mwet nukewa saya an in som nu yen selos an.”
8 And they took the provision of the people in their hand, and their horns; and he sent away every man of Israel each to his tent, and he strengthened the three hundred; and the army of Madiam were beneath him in the valley.
Na Gideon el supwala mwet Israel nukewa nu yen selos an, sayen mwet tolfoko su el sap in orani mwe mongo ac mwe ukuk nukewa ma oasr. Mwet Midian elos muta ke infahlfal se oan ten ah.
9 And it came to pass in that night that the Lord said to him, Arise, go down into the camp, for I have delivered it into your hand.
In fong sac LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel Gideon, “Tuyak ac mweunelos in nien aktuktuk lalos an. Nga sot kutangla nu sum.
10 And if you are afraid to go down, go down you and your servant Phara into the camp.
Tusruk kom fin sangeng in lainulos, kom ac mwet kulansap se lom an Purah tufokla nu nien aktuktuk lalos an.
11 And you shall hear what they shall say, and afterwards your hands shall be strong, and you shall go down into the camp: and he went down and Phara his servant to the extremity of the [companies of] fifty, which were in the camp.
Kom ac fah lohng ma elos srumun an, ac ke kom ac lohng an kom ac fah kui ac pulaik in lainulos.” Na Gideon ac mwet kulansap se lal inge, Purah, eltal oatula nu sisken nien aktuktuk lun mwet lokoalok lalos.
12 And Madiam and Amalec and all the children of the east [were] scattered in the valley, as the locust for multitude; and there was no number to their camels, but they were as the sand on the seashore for multitude.
Mwet Midian, mwet Amalek, ac mwet forfor yen mwesis elos oalik infahlfal uh oana pusiyen locust, ac pusiyen camel natulos pus oana puk weacn uh.
13 And Gedeon came, and behold a man [was] relating to his neighbour a dream, and he said, Behold, I have dreamt a dream, and behold, a cake of barley bread rolling into the camp of Madiam, and it came as far as a tent, and struck it, and it fell, and it turned it up, and the tent fell.
Ke Gideon el sun acn ma mwet lokoalok inge aktuktuk we, el lohng sramsram lun sie mwet ke el srumun mweme se lal nu sin kawuk se lal. El fahk ouinge, “Nga mweme mu srukwal in bread barley se ipipme nu nien aktuktuk sesr uh twe tukya sie lohm nuknukuh. Na lohm sac ikori ac oankiyuki infohk uh.”
14 And his neighbour answered and said, This is none other than the sword of Gedeon, son of Joas, a man of Israel: God has delivered Madiam and all the host into his hand.
Na kawuk se lal ah fahk, “Cutlass nutin mwet Israel se pa ingan — Gideon, wen natul Joash! Pa inge kalmen mweme sacn, wangin pac sie kalmac saya! God El sang kutangla nu sel Gideon fin mwet Midian ac mwet mweun wiasr nukewa!”
15 And it came to pass when Gedeon heard the account of the dream and the interpretation of it, that he worshipped the Lord, and returned to the camp of Israel, and said, Rise, for the Lord has delivered the camp of Madiam into our hand.
Ke Gideon el lohng mweme se lun mwet se inge, ac kalmen mweme sac, el sikukmutunteyak ac alu nu sin LEUM GOD. Na el folokla nu nien aktuktuk lun mwet Israel ac fahk, “Tukakek! LEUM GOD El asot kutangla nu suwos fin mwet mweun lun Midian!”
16 And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and put horns in the hands of all, and empty pitchers, and torches in the pitchers:
El kitalik mwet tolfoko lal inge nu ke u tolu, ac sang nu sin kais sie mwet sie mwe ukuk ac pisin sufa soko ma fulack firir soko oan loac.
17 and he said to them, You shall look at me, and so shall you do; and behold, I will go into the beginning of the host, and it shall come to pass [that] as I do, so shall you do.
Ac el fahk nu selos, “Ke pacl se nga ac sun sisken nien aktuktuk lalos, kowos liyeyu ac oru oana ke nga ac oru uh.
18 And I will sound with the horn, and all you with me shall sound with the horn round about the whole camp, and you shall say, For the Lord and Gedeon.
Ke pacl se nga ac u luk uh ac ukya mwe ukuk uh, na kowos ukya mwe ukuk an ac raunela nien aktuktuk lalos an, ac sasa ac fahk, ‘Kut oru ma inge ke Inen LEUM GOD ac ke inel Gideon!’”
19 And Gedeon and the hundred men that were with him came to the extremity of the army in the beginning of the middle watch; and they completely roused the guards, and sounded with the horns, and they broke the pitchers that were in their hands,
Ac Gideon ac mwet siofok lal elos tuku nu nien aktuktuk uh meet kutu liki infulwen fong, tukunna mwet soan we ah ayaol. Na elos ukya mwe ukuk ac fukul pisin sufa elos us uh.
20 and the three companies sounded with the horns, and broke the pitchers, and held the torches in their left hands, and in their right hands their horns to sound with; and they cried out, A sword for the Lord and for Gedeon.
Ac u luo saya ah elos oru oapana. Elos sruok fulack firir lalos uh in lac paolos lasa, ac mwe ukuk uh ke lac po layot, ac sasa. Elos wowoyak fahk, “Cutlass uh ma nu sin LEUM GOD ac nu sel Gideon!”
21 And [every] man stood in his place round about the host; and all the host ran, and sounded [an alarm], and fled.
Mwet nukewa tu raunela nien aktuktuk lun mwet lokoalok, ac mwet lokoalok elos wowo ac kaing.
22 And they sounded with the three hundred horns; and the Lord set [every] man's sword in all the host against his neighbour.
Ke mwet lal Gideon inge tuh uk mwe ukuk tolfoko natulos, LEUM GOD El oru tuh mwet lokoalok inge in sifacna forani aacnwuki ke cutlass natulos. Elos kaing ke inkanek nu Zarethan nwe ke elos sun acn Beth Shittah, ke siti lun Abel Meholah su apkuran nu Tabbath.
23 And the host fled as far as Bethseed Tagaragatha Abel-meula to Tabath; and the men of Israel from Nephthali, and from Aser, and from all Manasse, came to help, and followed after Madiam.
Na suliyukme mwet in sruf lal Naphtali, ac sruf lal Asher, ac sruf luo lun Manasseh kewa, ac elos ukwe mwet Midian inge.
24 And Gedeon sent messengers into all mount Ephraim, saying, Come down to meet Madiam, and take to yourselves the water as far as Baethera and Jordan: and every man of Ephraim cried out, and they took the water before hand to Baethera and Jordan.
Ac Gideon el supwala mwet utuk kas in som sasla fineol in facl Ephraim ac fahk, “Tufoki ac mweuni mwet Midian. Kowos kosrala acn ke Infacl Jordan nwe sun acn Bethbarah, mwet Midian inge in tia tupalla.” Na mwet Ephraim elos toeni ac kosrala Infacl Jordan nwe sun acn Bethbarah.
25 And they took the princess of Madiam, even Oreb and Zeb; and they killed Oreb in Sur Oreb, and they killed Zeb in Jakephzeph; and they pursued Madiam, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeb to Gedeon from beyond Jordan.
Mwet Israel elos sruokya mwet kol luo lun mwet Midian, Oreb ac Zeeb. Elos unilya Oreb sisken eot lulap pangpang Eot lal Oreb. Ac elos unilya Zeeb ke Nien Fut Wain lal Zeeb. Na elos sifilpa ukwe mwet Midian. Ac elos use sifal Oreb ac sifal Zeeb nu yen Gideon el muta we kutulap in Infacl Jordan, ac sang nu sel.
