Zeba gi Zalmuna
1 Jo-Efraim nopenjo Gideon niya, “Angʼo ma omiyo isetimonwa kama? Angʼo ma notami luongowa kane idhi kedo gi jo-Midian?” Omiyo negidhawo kode matek.
2 To nodwokogi niya, “Angʼo ma asetimo kipimo gi gima usetimo? Donge mzabibu mag Efraim modongʼ ber moloyo keyo maduongʼ mar mzabibu mar Abiezer? 3 Nyasaye nochiwo Oreb kod Zeb, jotend jo-Midian, e lwetgi. En angʼo mane anyalo timo kipimo gi gima usetimo?” Kuom mano, ich wangʼ margi norumo.
4 Kata obedo ni Gideon gi joge mia adek nool kamano, negimedo lawo ruodhi mag Midian mi gingʼado aora Jordan. 5 Nowachone jo-Sukoth niya, “Miuru joga ma jolweny makati nikech giol, kendo pod alawo Zeba kod Zalmuna, ma gin ruodhi jo-Midian.”
6 To jotelo mag Sukoth nowacho niya, “Bende usemako Zeba kod Zalmuna? Ere kaka dwami jolweny magi moolgi makati?”
7 Eka Gideon nodwoko niya, “Nikech gima uwacho, ka Jehova Nyasaye osechiwo Zeba gi Zalmuna e lweta, to abiro yuyo ringreu gi pedo kod matata.”
8 Noa kanyo kodhi Peniel kendo ochiwonegi kwayo makamano, to negidwoko mana kaka jo-Sukoth nowacho. 9 Omiyo nowachone jo-Peniel niya, “Ka aduogo gi loch, to abiro muko bath ohinga moger motingʼore gi malo.”
10 Noyudo ka Zeba gi Zalmuna neni Karkor kaachiel gi jolweny mage manyalo romo ji alufu apar gabich, ne gin jolweny mane odongʼ kuom jolweny mag wuok chiengʼ, to jolweny alufu mia achiel gi piero ariyo nonegi e lweny. 11 Gideon nodhi koluwo yo jokwath mantiere yo wuok chiengʼ mar Noba kod Jogbeha mi nodonjo kuom jolweny mamoko apoya. 12 Zeba gi Zalmuna, ma ruodhi ariyo mag Midian, noringo, to nolawogi mi omakogi, kendo makogino nokelo luoro maduongʼ ne jolwenjgi.
13 Bangʼ mano Gideon wuod Joash noduogo koa e lweny koluwo yor Heres. 14 Nomako wuod Sukoth mi openje penjo, kendo wuowino nondikone nying ruodhi piero abiro gabiriyo mag Sukoth. 15 Eka Gideon nobiro mi owachone jo-Sukoth niya, “Eri Zeba gi Zalmuna, mane osemiyo uchaya kuwacho ni, ‘Bende usemako Zeba gi Zalmuna? Ere kaka dwami jolweny magi moolgi makati?’ ” 16 Nokawo jodong dalano mi okawo pedo kod matata mokumogo jo-Sukoth. 17 Bende nomuko kama oger motingʼore gi malo mar Peniel mi onego jo-dalano.
18 Eka nopenjo Zeba kod Zalmuna niya, “Ne inego ji machalo nade Tabor?”
Negidwoke niya, “Ji machalo kodi, ma ngʼato ka ngʼato ne nigi kido machalo mar ruoth.”
19 Gideon nodwoko niya, “Mago ne owetena, yawuot minwa owuon. Akwongʼora gi nying Jehova Nyasaye mangima ni ka dine ingʼwononegi, to dine ok anegou.” 20 Eka nonyiso wuode maduongʼ miluongo ni Jetha niya, “Neg-gi!” To Jetha ne ok owuodho liganglane, nikech ne pod en rawera kendo noluor.
21 Zeba gi Zalmuna nowacho niya, “Bi inegwa mana in iwuon nimar in e ngʼat maduongʼ maratego.” Omiyo Gideon nosudo machiegni kodgi monegogi, bangʼe nokawo pien mane ni e ngʼut ngamia mag-gi.
Efod mar Gideon
22 Jo-Israel nowachone Gideon niya, “Bed jatendwa, in kaachiel gi wuodi kod nyakwari ma wuowi, nikech iseresowa e lwet jo-Midian.”
23 To Gideon nokonegi niya, “Ok anabed jatendu, kata wuoda bende ok nobed jatendu. Jehova Nyasaye ema biro bedo jatendu.” 24 Kendo nowacho niya, “An-gi kwayo achiel, ni ngʼato ka ngʼato kuomu omiya stadi kuom pok mag gik mane uyako.” Ne en kit jo-Ishmael mondo gilier stadi mar dhahabu e itgi.
25 Negidwoko niya, “En morwa mondo wachiwgi.” Omiyo ne gipedho nanga, kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato nodiro stadi koa kuom gik mane giyako e nangano. 26 Pek mar stadi mag dhahabu mane okwayo ne oromo shekel alufu achiel gi mia abiriyo, ka ok okwano bangli, odeyo kod nengni maralik mirwako gi ruodhi mag Midian kata nyoroche mane ni e ngʼut ngamia margi. 27 Gideon noloso kido mar nyasaye manono mar efod gi dhahabu, ma noketo e dalane miluongo ni Ofra. Jo-Israel duto notimo timbe mag dwanyruok e kindgi giwegi ka gilamo kidono kanyo kendo nobedo obadho ni Gideon kod dalane.
Tho mar Gideon
28 Kamano e kaka jo-Midian noloo gi jo-Israel kendo ne ok gichako gitugo lweny moro kendo. E kinde ma Gideon ne pod ngima, pinyno nobedo gi kwe kuom higni piero angʼwen.
29 Jerub-Baal wuod Joash nodok dala. 30 Ne en-gi yawuowi piero abiriyo ma mage owuon, nimar ne en-gi mon mangʼeny. 31 Bende ne en gi jatich madhako mane odak Shekem, mane onywolone wuowi miluongo ni Abimelek. 32 Gideon wuod Joash notho ka en-gi higni mathoth kendo noyike e liend wuon mare Joash man Ofra dala jo-Abiezer.
33 Bangʼ ka Gideon nosetho jo-Israel nochako timo timbe dwanyruok kalamo Baal. Negiketo Baal-Berith kaka nyasachgi, 34 kendo ne ok giparo Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachgi, mane oseresogi e lwet jowasikgi duto koni gi koni. 35 Bende negitamore timo ngʼwono ni joka Jerub-Baal (mano en Gideon) kuom gigo mabeyo duto mane osetimonigi.
