12 Yehowa bɔfo ɔ je e he kpo kɛ tsɔɔ lɛ nɛ e de lɛ ke: “Yehowa kɛ mo ngɛ, mo tatsɛ he walɔ.”
13 Kɛkɛ nɛ Gideon de lɛ ke: “I kpa mo pɛɛ ye nyɔmtsɛ, ke Yehowa kɛ wɔ ngɛ ɔ, lɛɛ mɛni he je nɛ ní nɛ ɔmɛ tsuo ba wa nɔ ɔ? Nyakpɛ níhi tsuo nɛ e pee nɛ wa tsɛmɛ ɔmɛ de, kɛ demi nɛ a de wɔ ke, ‘Yehowa lɛ je wɔ kɛ je Egipt ɔ, jije lɛ tsuo ngɛ?’ Amlɔ nɛ ɔ, Yehowa kua wɔ nɛ e ngɔ wɔ kɛ wo Midian bi ɔmɛ a dɛ mi.”
14 Yehowa plɛ e hɛ mi kɛ tsɔɔ lɛ nɛ e de lɛ ke: “O kɛ he wami nɛ o ngɛ ɔ nɛ ya, nɛ o ma he Israel yi wami kɛ je Midian bi ɔmɛ a dɛ mi. Anɛ pi imi nɛ i ngɛ mo tsɔe lo?”
15 Gideon ha lɛ heto ke: “Yehowa, i kpa mo pɛɛ, kɛ ma pee kɛ he Israel yi wami kɛɛ? Hyɛ! Ye weku* ɔ ji nyafii pe kulaa ngɛ Manase, nɛ imi ji nɔ nyafii pe kulaa ngɛ ye tsɛ we ɔ mi.”
16 Se Yehowa de lɛ ke: “Akɛnɛ ma piɛɛ o he he je ɔ, o ma kpata Midian bi ɔmɛ a hɛ mi kaa a kpataa nɔ kake hɛ mi.”
17 Kɛkɛ nɛ Gideon de lɛ ke: “Amlɔ nɛ ɔ, ke ye hɛ mi ba nyami ngɛ o hɛ mi ɔ, tsɔɔ mi okadi ko nɛ tsɔɔ kaa mo lɛ o kɛ mi ngɛ munyu tue ɔ nɛ.
18 I kpa mo pɛɛ nɛ o ko je hiɛ ɔ kɛ ya si be nɛ ma kpale kɛ ba nɛ ma ngɔ ye nike ní kɛ ba ma o hɛ mi.” Enɛ ɔ he ɔ, bɔfo ɔ de ke: “Ma hi hiɛ ɔ kɛ ya si be nɛ o maa kpale kɛ ba.”
19 Nɛ Gideon ya nɛ e ya ngɔ apletsi bi kɛ pee hwonyu nɛ e kɛ mamu lita 22* pee abolo nɛ masa be mi. E ta lo ɔ kɛ wo kɛtɛ* mi, nɛ e ngɔ hwonyu ɔ kɛ wo kutu* mi; kɛkɛ nɛ e ngɔ kɛ ba ha lɛ, nɛ e to niye ní ɔ ha lɛ ngɛ tso ngua a sisi.
20 Jehanɛ ɔ, anɔkuale Mawu ɔ bɔfo ɔ de lɛ ke: “Ngɔɔ lo ɔ kɛ abolo nɛ masa be mi ɔ kɛ pue tɛ sa ngua a nɛ ngɛ lejɛ ɔ nɔ, nɛ o plɛ hwonyu ɔ kɛ pue nɔ.” Nɛ e pee jã.

Oya nɔuu nɛ Gideon de ke: “Ao Nyɔmtsɛ Matsɛ Yehowa, i gbo, ejakaa i na Yehowa bɔfo hɛ mi kɛ hɛ mi!”
23 Se Yehowa de lɛ ke: “Tue mi jɔmi ha mo. Koo ye gbeye; o be gboe.”
24 Enɛ ɔ he ɔ, Gideon ma afɔle sami la tɛ ko ngɛ lejɛ ɔ ha Yehowa, nɛ a tsɛɛ lɛ ke Yehowa-shalom* kɛ ba si mwɔnɛ ligbi nɛ ɔ. Loloolo ɔ, e ngɛ Abiezer bi ɔmɛ a ma a mi ngɛ Ofra.
25 Jamɛ a nyɔ ɔ mi ɔ, Yehowa de lɛ ke: “Ngɔɔ o tsɛ ɔ na wayoo ɔ, nɛ ji na wayoo enyɔne ɔ nɛ e ye jeha kpaago ɔ, nɛ o ya hule o tsɛ ɔ Baal afɔle sami la tɛ ɔ, nɛ o po wɔ tso* ɔ nɛ ngɛ e kasa nya a kɛ fɔ si.
26 Lɔ ɔ se ɔ, moo to tɛhi kɛ ma afɔle sami la tɛ ha Yehowa o Mawu ɔ ngɛ he piɛ pomi he nɛ ɔ yi mi, nɛ́ o ngɔ wɔ tso* ɔ nɛ o po kɛ fɔ si ɔ kɛ pee lɛ́ nɛ o sã na wayoo enyɔne ɔ kaa sami afɔle ngɛ nɔ.”
27 Enɛ ɔ he ɔ, Gideon ngɔ e sɔmɔli ɔmɛ a kpɛti ni nyɔngma, nɛ e pee kaa bɔ nɛ Yehowa de lɛ ɔ pɛpɛɛpɛ. Se e ye e tsɛ ɔ we ɔ mi bi ɔmɛ kɛ nyumuhi nɛ a ngɛ ma a mi ɔ gbeye wawɛɛ hluu kaa e nyɛ we nɛ e tsu nɔ́ nɛ ɔ piani, mohu ɔ, e tsu ní ɔ nyɔ mi.
28 E nɔ jena mɔtu mla benɛ nyumuhi nɛ a ngɛ ma a mi ɔ te si ɔ, a na kaa a hule Baal afɔle sami la tɛ ɔ, nɛ a po wɔ tso* ɔ nɛ ngɛ e kasa nya a kɛ fɔ si, nɛ a ngɔ na wayoo enyɔne ɔ kɛ sã afɔle ngɛ afɔle sami la tɛ nɛ a ma a nɔ.
29 A bi a sibi ke: “Mɛnɔ lɛ e tsu nɔ́ nɛ ɔ?” Benɛ a hla mi ɔ, a de ke: “Gideon, Yoash binyumu ɔ lɛ e tsu nɔ́ nɛ ɔ nɛ.”
30 Lɔ ɔ he ɔ, nyumuhi nɛ a ngɛ ma a mi ɔ de Yoash ke: “Ngɔɔ o binyumu ɔ kɛ ba nɛ a gbe lɛ, ejakaa e hule Baal afɔle sami la tɛ ɔ, nɛ e po wɔ tso* ɔ nɛ ngɛ e kasa nya a kɛ fɔ si.”
31 Kɛkɛ nɛ Yoash de nihi tsuo nɛ a ba ná lɛ ɔ ke: “Anɛ e sa nɛ nyɛ fã Baal he lo? Anɛ e sa nɛ nyɛ he e yi wami lo? Nɔ fɛɛ nɔ nɛ e ma fã e he ɔ, e sa nɛ a gbe lɛ mɔtu nɛ ɔ. Ke mawu ji lɛ ɔ, nyɛ ha nɛ lɛ nitsɛ e fã e he ngɛ e we afɔle sami la tɛ ɔ nɛ a hule ɔ he je.”
32 Nɛ jamɛ a ligbi ɔ, e wo Gideon biɛ ke Yerubaal,* nɛ e de ke: “Ha nɛ Baal nɛ fã lɛ nitsɛ e he, ejakaa nɔ ko hule e we afɔle sami la tɛ ɔ.”
33 Midian bi ɔmɛ kɛ Amalek bi ɔmɛ kɛ nihi nɛ a je Puje He Je ɔ tsuo pee kake; nɛ a po mi* kɛ ho Yezreel Dɔgba a mi ya nɛ a ya bua a he nya.
34 Kɛkɛ nɛ Yehowa mumi ɔ ba* Gideon nɔ, nɛ e kpã titimati* ɔ, nɛ Abiezer bi ɔmɛ bu kɛ nyɛɛ e se.
35 E tsɔ tsɔli kɛ ya kpa Manase tsuo, nɛ mɛ hu a bu kɛ nyɛɛ e se. Jehanɛ hu ɔ, e tsɔ tsɔli kɛ ya kpa Asher, Zebulun, kɛ Naftali, nɛ mɛ hu a ba nɛ a kɛ lɛ ba kpe.
36 Lɔ ɔ se ɔ, Gideon de anɔkuale Mawu ɔ ke: “Ke o maa gu ye nɔ kɛ he Israel yi wami kaa bɔ nɛ o wo si ɔ,

38 Nɛ jã ji bɔ nɛ e ba mi. E nɔ jena mɔtu mla nɛ e te si nɛ e nga jijɔ he bwɔmi ɔ mi ɔ, nyu nɛ je jijɔ he bwɔmi ɔ mi ɔ hiɛ hluu kaa e hyi ní yemi tsesi ngua ko.
39 Se Gideon de anɔkuale Mawu ɔ ke: “O mi mi nɛ ko fu mi, mohu ɔ, ha nɛ ma bi si kake ekohu. I kpa mo pɛɛ, ha nɛ ma ngɔ jijɔ he bwɔmi ɔ kɛ kpa nɔ́ si si kake ekohu. I kpa mo pɛɛ nɛ o ha nɛ jijɔ he bwɔmi ɔ pɛ nɛ gbli, konɛ bɔ́ nɛ nɛ kɛ pue zugba a nɔ tsuo.”
40 Nɛ Mawu pee jã jamɛ a nyɔ ɔ mi; jijɔ he bwɔmi ɔ pɛ lɛ gbli, se bɔ́ nɛ kɛ pue zugba a nɔ tsuo.
