1 Aaisraeli oya yono ishewe kOmuwa, nokwe ya gandja miikaha yAamidiana, mboka ye ya pangele omimvo heyali. 2 Aamidiana oya li ye na oonkondo ye vule Aaisraeli, noshigwana shaIsrael oshe ya holama momakololo nomomaholameno moondundu. 3 Shaa uuna Aaisraeli ya kunu omapya, Aamidiana nAayamaleki oye ya pamwe naantu yokombuga noye ya matukile. 4 Oya yungu oontanda noya thekeke po iilya kuumbugantu sigo opuushiinda waGaza. Oya yugu po oonzi, iimuna nuusino noya thigi Aaisraeli ye li owalawala. 5 Oye ya nuukambe wawo nootenda dhawo, engathithi oto ti oombahu. Oye ya noongamelo dhawo dhaa shi kuyalulwa. Oye ya noya mbugaleke evi, 6 naIsrael ina vula we okutya sha kuyo.
7 Nena Aaisraeli oya kugu onkugo kOmuwa, e ya hupithe miikaha yAamidiana, 8 noye e ya tumine omuhunganeki, ngoka e ya etele elaka lya zi kOmuwa, Kalunga kaIsrael, tali ti: “Onde ku tembudha muupika waEgipiti. 9 Onde ku yululula miikaha yAayegipiti nomiikaha yaantu mboka ye ku kondjitha mevi ndika. Onde ya tidha mo miipathi yeni nonde mu pe evi lyawo. 10 Onde mu lombwele nda ti: ‘Ongame Omuwa, Kalunga keni, inamu longela iikalunga yAayamori mboka mu li mevi lyawo. Ihe inamu pulakena ndje.’ ”
11 Omuyengeli gwOmuwa okwe ya komukunda gwaOfra nokwa kuutumba momwandi gwaJoas, omulumentu gwomezimo lyaAbieser. Omwana Gideon okwa li ta yungula iilya iishona meholamo moshikolelo shoomviinu, opo kaa monike kAamidiana. 12 Omuyengeli gwOmuwa okwe mu ihololele nkoka nokwa ti kuye: “Omuwa oku li nangoye, ngoye ependa nomulumentu gwonkama.”
13 Gideon okwa ti kuye: “Nandi ku pule, tatekulu, ngele Omuwa oku li pamwe natse, oshike tatu mono iihuna? Oshike Omuwa itaa longo iinyengandunge mbyoka twa hokololelwa kootate, nkene e tu tembudha muEgipiti? Omuwa okwe tu gandja miikaha yAamidiana e tu ekelehi.”
14 Nena Omuwa okwe mu lombwele: “Inda noonkondo dhoye oonene, u ka mangulule Aaisraeli miikaha yAamidiana. Ongame tandi ku tumu.”
15 Gideon okwa yamukula: “Ihe otandi mangulula ngiini Aaisraeli? Oludhi lwetu kalu na edhina mezimo lyaManasse, nangame mwene omunima gwowala mezimo lyandje.”
16 Omuwa okwa yamukula: “Oto shi vulu, oshoka otandi ku kwatha. Oto ka nyanyagula Aamidiana wa fa to lyatagula omuntu gumwe.”
17 Gideon okwa yamukula: “Ongame ngele nda silwa ohenda kungoye, pe ndje endhindhiliko, li holole kutya ongoye shili Omuwa. 18 Kwatha ndje, u kale mpaka, sigo tandi ku etele omayambo giikulya.”
Okwa ti: “Otandi kala mpaka, sigo to galuka.”
19 Gideon okwa yi maandjawo e ta paka po okakombwena nokwa ningi oshikwiila shaa na efulika shuusila wookilograma omilongo. Okwa tula onyama montungwa nomahoka mokayiga nokwe yi fala komuyengeli gwOmuwa momwandi nokwe yi mu pe. 20 Omuyengeli okwe mu lombwele: “Tula onyama noshikwiila kemanya ndika e to tile ko omahoka.” Gideon okwe shi ningi. 21 Nena omuyengeli gwOmuwa okwa ganeke oshikaha e ta gumu onyama noshikwiila noshiti sha li moshikaha she. Omulilo ogwa zi memanya e tagu lungunitha po onyama noshikwiila. Omuyengeli nokwa kana momeho ge.
22 Nena Gideon okwa dhimbulula kutya nguka a mono, nani omuyengeli gwOmuwa nokwi ipopile kuumbanda a ti: “Kalunga omusimanekwa pombanda, onda mono omuyengeli gwoye moshipala!”
23 Omuwa okwa ti kuye: “Kala nombili, ino tila. Ito si.” 24 Gideon okwa tungile Omuwa oshiyambelo e te shi luku “Omuwa Oye Ombili.” (Oshi li natango muOfra, momukunda gwAayabieser.)
25 Uusiku mbwiyaka Omuwa okwa lombwele Gideon: “Kutha ontsezi yaho nontsezi yilwe yomimvo heyali, hanagula po oshiyambelo shaho shoka a tungile Baal, e to komangele po wo omuti gwoshikalungakiintu Asheera ngoka gu li pooha dhasho. 26 Tunga po oshiyambelo sha tungika, u shi tungile Omuwa Kalunga koye kombanda yoshikulundundu shika. Nena kutha ontsezi ontiyali, u yi lungunithe po omudhidhi to tema niikuni tayi zi komuti gwaAsheera ngoka we gu komangele po.” 27 Gideon okwa kutha omulongo gwomaamati ye nokwa ningi, ngaashi Omuwa e mu lombwele. Okwa li a tila unene aakwawo naantu yomoshilando oku shi ninga omutenya, onkee okwe shi ningi uusiku.
28 Aantu yomoshilando sho ya penduka ongula onene, oya mono oshiyambelo shaBaal nomuti gwaAsheera ya yonagulwa po. Oya mono wo ontsezi ontiyali ya lungunithwa poshiyambelo shoka a tungile ko. 29 Oya pulathana: “Olye a ningi ngeyi?” Oya konakona noya mono kutya oGideon yaJoas e shi ningi. 30 Nena oya lombwele Joas: “Eta omumwoye, tu mu dhipage. Okwa kumuna po oshiyambelo shaBaal nokwa komangele po omuti gwaAsheera.”
31 Ihe Joas okwa lombwele aatamaneki ye ta ti: “Omwa gama kuBaal? Otamu mu gamene? Shaa ngoka te mu kondjele, oye na se, manga ngula inaali sha. Baal ngele okalunga, ni ipopile mwene, oshoka oshiyambelo oshe sha yonagulwa po.” 32 Okuza mpoka Gideon okwa lukwa Jerubbaal, oshoka Joas okwa ti: “Baal ni ipopile ye mwene, oshoka oshiyambelo oshe sha yonagulwa po.”
33 Nena Aamidiana ayehe, Aayamaleki nomazimo gokombuga oya gongala ya taaguluka omulonga Jordan noya yungu oontanda mesilu lyaJesreel. 34 Ombepo yOmuwa oya yi muGideon nokwa hiki enkuma ti ithana aalumentu yomoludhi lwaAbieser, ye mu landule. 35 Okwa tumu elaka kiitopolwa ayihe iyali yAamanasse, ye mu landule. Okwa tumu elaka kAayaser, kAasebuloni nokAanaftali, noye ya kuye.
36 Nena Gideon okwa ti kuKalunga: “Owa ti kutya owa tokola okulongitha ndje, ndi mangulule Israel. 37 Eewa, ote tula nduno omafufu gonzi polupale. Ngele oga kwatwa komume ongula, manga evi lya kukuta, nena ote tseya kutya oto ka longitha ndje, ndi mangulule Israel.” 38 Osho naanaa sha ningwa. Gideon sho a penduka ongula onene, okwa kama omafufu nokuthinina mokayo e taku udha omeya. 39 Nena Gideon okwa ti kuKalunga: “Ino geela ndje, pitika ndje, ndi popye lumwe natango. Kwatha ndje, ndi ninge ishewe elolelo limwe nomafufu. Omafufu naga kale omakukutu, manga evi lya tosima.” 40 Uusiku Kalunga osho a ningi. Ongula ya landula omafufu oga li omakukutu, ihe evi olya li lyu udha omume.
