Okusindwa kwahugunina kwAamidiana
1 Nena Aaefraim oya lombwele Gideon ya ti: “Oshike inoo tu lombwela, sho wa ka homona Aamidiana? Omolwashike we tu ningile ngeyi?” Oye shi tamaneke noonkondo.
2 Ihe Gideon okwa ti: “Shoka nda li te vulu okuninga, kashi shi sha nokuyelekwa naashoka mwe shi ningi. Nokuli oshishona shoka mwe shi ningi, oshi vule shoka ezimo lyandje alihe lye shi ningi. 3 Sho shene, okoonkondo dhaKalunga mwa dhipaga aawa yaali yAamidiana, Oreb naSeeb. Oshike nda ningi, shi tukule shino?” Sho a ti ngeyi, oya gololoka.
4 Gideon netanga lye lyaalumentu omathele gatatu oye ya komulonga Jordan noye gu taaguluka. Oya li ya loloka nayi, ihe oya landula ngaa aatondi yawo. 5 Sho ye ya kuSukkot, okwa lombwele aantu yomoshilando: “Peni wo aantu yandje iikwiila yimwe. Oya loloka, nangame onda landula Seba naZalmunna, aakwaniilwa yAamidiana.”
6 Ihe aakuluntu yaSukkot oya ti: “Omolwashike tu na okupa aakwiita yoye iikulya? Ndishi inamu kwata natango Seba naZalmunna.”
7 Gideon okwa ti: “Eewa ano! Omuwa ngele okwa gandja Seba naZalmunna miikaha yandje, nena otii ke mu takula nomano nomapokolo gokombuga!” 8 Gideon okwa yi kuPenuel nokwe ya hehela ngaashi puSukkot, ihe aantu mbaka oya yamukula ngaashi Aasukkot. 9 Okwa ti kuyo: “Ote yi, ihe otii ka galuka ondjolowele nonda ndjanga, nongele nda galuka, otii ka hanagula po epopilongulu lyeni.”
10 Seba naZalmunna oya li puKarkor pamwe netangakwiita lyawo. Maakwiita ayehe yomazimo gokombuga omwa li mwa hupu ashike 15 000; aakwiita 120 000 oya dhipagwa. 11 Gideon okwa yi nondjila yokooha dhombuga kuuzilo waNobak naJogbeha e ta koloka ta matukile etangakwiita. 12 Aakwaniilwa mbeyaka yaali yAamidiana, Seba naZalmunna, oya yi ontuku, ihe okwe ya landula e te ya kwata e ta shoshomeke etanga lyawo alihe.
13 Gideon sho a li ta galuka kolugodhi ta piti metaulilo lyaHeres, 14 okwa kwata omumati Omusukkot e te mu pula. Omumati okwe mu nyolele omadhina gaakuluntu omilongo heyali yaSukkot. 15 Nena Gideon okwa yi kaantu yaSukkot nokwa ti: “Dhimbulukweni, nkene mwa tindile okukwatha ndje. Omwa tile, itamu pe aakwiita yandje ya loloka iikulya, oshoka onda li manga inaandi kwata Seba naZalmunna. Eewa, oyo mbaka nduno!” 16 Opo ihe okwa kutha omano nomapokolo gokombuga e ta takula nago aakuluntu yaSukkot. 17 Okwa hanagula po wo epopilongulu puPenuel nokudhipaga aalumentu yomoshilando shoka.
18 Nena Gideon okwa pula Seba naZalmunna: “Ongiini kombinga yaantu mbeya mwa dhipagele puTabor?” Oya yamukula: “Oye ku fa, shaa ngoka okwa fa munyembala.”
19 Gideon okwa ti: “Oya li aamwameme yomekoto, ndele ote gana naanaa kutya ando omwa li inaamu ya dhipaga, ando itandi mu dhipaga.” 20 Nena okwa lombwele osheeli she Jeter: “Ila, u ya dhipage!” Ihe omumati ina pweya mo nande egongamwele lye. Okwa li ta kakama, oshoka oye omputu natango.
21 Nena Seba naZalmunna oya ti kuGideon: “Ila, u tu dhipage ngoye mwene, oshoka ngoye omulumentu gwomatha.” Osho Gideon e ya dhipaga nokwa kutha po iiwengendje ya li moothingo dhoongamelo dhawo.
22 Konima yaambika Aaisraeli oya ti kuGideon: “Ninga omuleli gwetu — ongoye noluvalo lwoye. Owe tu yululula miikaha yAamidiana.”
23 Gideon okwa yamukula: “Itandi ningi nando omuleli gweni, nohamumwandje. Omuwa oye omuleli gweni.” 24 Ihe okwa tsikile ta ti: “Nandi mu pule oshinima shimwe. Shaa ngoka gwomune na pe ndje omagola ngoka a hakana.” (Aamidiana naambuga oya li haa zala omagola giingoli.)
25 Aantu oya yamukula: “Otatu nyanyukilwa oku ge ku pa.” Oya yala ekumbyatha pevi noshaa ngoka oku umbile po omagola ngoka a hakana. 26 Omagola giingoli ngoka Gideon a taamba, oge na uudhigu u thike konyala pookilograma omilongo mbali, inaamu yalulilwa omitsuhu nomakwilika noonguwo oombwilili, ndhoka hadhi zalwa kaakwaniilwa yAamidiana, niiwengendje mbyoka ya li moothingo dhoongamelo dhawo. 27 Gideon okwe yi tungitha ondjatha ya nyeleketela e te yi tula moshilando shaandjawo Ofra. Aaisraeli oya gamuka ko kuKalunga kawo noye yi simaneke ya ningi oshikalunga shawo. Osha ningi epundukitho kuGideon noluvalo lwe.
28 Osho Aamidiana ya sindwa kAaisraeli nokapwa li we omahindo. Oshilongo osha li shi na ombili omimvo omilongo ne, sigo okeso lyaGideon.
Eso lyaGideon
29 Gideon okwa shuna kaandjawo noko a kala. 30 Okwa li e na oyana aamati omilongo heyali, oshoka okwa li a hokana ombanda. 31 Okwa li e na ohonda muShekem; noye mu valele okamati e te ka luku Abimelek. 32 Gideon yaJoas okwa si muukokele wa tya ko nokwa fumvikwa mombila yahe Joas puOfra, oshilando shezimo lyaAbieser.
33 Konima yeso lyaGideon oshigwana shaIsrael inashi dhiginina Kalunga; osha longele ooBaal. Oya ningi Baal-Berit oshimenka shawo 34 yo inaa tsikila we okulongela Omuwa Kalunga kawo, ngoka e ya mangulula miikaha yaatondi yawo ye ya kunduka. 35 Inaa sila ohenda egumbo lyaGideon moluuwanawa mboka e u ningile Israel.
