Abagwebi 7
1Bavuka kusasa ooYerubhahali, onguGidiyon, namadoda onke abenaye, bemisa ngasequleni likaHarodi. Umkhosi wamaMidiyan wawungasentla kwawo, phezu kwenduli kaMore, entilini. 2Wathi uYehova kuGidiyon, Baninzi abantu onabo, ukuze ndiwanikele amaMidiyan esandleni sabo, hleze bandivukele oonyana bakaSirayeli, bathi, Ndisindisiwe ngesandla sam. 3Khawuhambe ke umemeze ezindlebeni zabantu, uthi, Bonke abangcangcazelayo makabuye, bemke ezintabeni zaseGiliyadi. Kwabuya ke ebantwini abangamashumi amabini anamabini amawaka; kwasala ishumi lamawaka. 4Wathi uYehova kuGidiyon, Basebaninzi abantu; Yehla nawo uye emanzini, ndikuvavanyele wona apho. Ndithi ke kuni, Makangahambi nani, makangahambi nani. 5Wabahlisela abantu emanzini, waza uYehova wathi kuGidiyon: “Nabani na owakhotha amanzi ngolwimi lwakhe njengenja ekhothayo, makamyeke; unjalo wonke umntu oguqa ngamadolo ukuba asele. 6Inani labo babekhotha, bazibeka izandla emlonyeni wabo, lalingamakhulu amathathu amadoda; abanye abantu baguqa ngamadolo ukuba basele amanzi. 7Wathi uYehova kuGidiyon, Ndiya kukuhlangula ngala madoda makhulu mathathu, ndiwanikele amaMidiyan esandleni sakho; zihambe zonke ezinye iintlanga, elowo aye endaweni yakhe. 8Abantu bathabatha ukudla kwabo, baphatha izigodlo zabo esandleni sabo, wathi onke amaSirayeli makaye elowo ententeni yakhe, wawagcina amadoda amakhulu mathathu yaye umkhosi wamaMidiyan wawuphantsi kwakhe entlanjeni. 9Ngobo busuku uYehova wathi kuye: “Sukuma, uhle uye emkhosini; ngokuba ndiyinikele ezandleni zenu. 10Ukuba uyoyika ukuhla, yihla uye emkhosini noFura umkhonzi wakho. 11Kwaye uve into abayithethayo; emva koko izandla zakho ziya komelela ukuba uhle uye enqabeni. Wehla ke yena noPura isicaka sakhe, baya kutsho kumda womkhosi oxhobileyo. 12AmaMidiyan nama-Amaleki noonyana bonke basempumalanga babelele emlanjeni njengeenkumbi ezininzi; neenkamela zabo bezizininzi njengentlabathi eselunxwemeni lolwandle. 13Wafika uGidiyon, wabona indoda exelela ummelwane wayo iphupha, yathi, Yabona, ndiphuphe iphupha; yawa, yayibhukuqa, yalala intente ngecala layo. 14Waphendula umlingane wakhe, wathi, Likrele likaGidiyon, unyana kaYowashe, indoda yakwaSirayeli; uThixo uwanikele esandleni sakhe amaMidiyan nomkhosi wonke. 15Akuliva uGidiyon iphupha elo, nokutyhilwa kwalo, waguqa, wabuyela ezintlwini zakwaSirayeli, esithi, Yekani! ngokuba uYehova uyinikele imikhosi yakwaMidiyan esandleni sakho. 16Wawahlula aba zahlulo zontathu amadoda angamakhulu mathathu, wabeka isigodlo esandleni ngasinye, nemiphanda engenanto, nezibane eziphangeni. 17Wathi kubo, Khangelani kum, nenze kwanjengam; ndithi, ndakuphuma eminqubeni, nenze njengoko ndenza ngako. 18Ndakuvuthela isigodlo, mna nabo bonke abakunye nam, nani nivuthele izigodlo, nijikeleze eminqubeni, nithi, Ingoma kaYehova, nengoma kaGidiyon! 19uGidiyon nekhulu lamadoda abenaye bafika ngaphandle kweminquba, ekuqalekeni kweqela lamadoda aphakathi; yaye bemisa nje abalindi, baza bavuthela izigodlo baza bayaphula imiphanda eyayisesandleni sabo. 20Avuthela izigodlo amalungu omathathu, aziqhekeza imiphanda, aphatha izibane ngezandla zasekhohlo, namaxilongo ngesandla sokunene, ukuba avuthe; baduma, besithi, Ikrele likaYehova nelikaGidiyon! 21Bema elowo endaweni yakhe, ngeenxa zonke eminqubeni; 22Amakhulu mathathu avuthela izigodlo, uYehova wabeka ikrele lomntu ngamnye kumlingane wakhe, nakumkhosi wonke; 23Ahlanganisana amadoda akwaSirayeli kwaNafetali, nakwa-Ashere, nakuManase wonke, awasukela amaMidiyan. 24uGidiyon wesusa abathunywa ezintabeni zonke zakwaEfrayim, esithi, Yihlani niye kumaMidiyan, niwagxothe amanzi phambi kwawo, nide nise eBhete-bhara, naseYordan. Abuthelana ndawonye onke amadoda akwaEfrayim, akha amanzi, esa eBhete-bhara naseYordan; 25Bathimba iinkosana ezimbini zakwaMidiyan, uOrebhe noSebe; bambulalela uOrebhi eliweni likaOrebhi, waza uShebhe wawaxabela kwisixovulelo sewayini sikaShehebhi waza wawasukela amaMidiyan waza wayiweza intloko kaOrebhi nekaShebhe eYordan.
