⁷Bere a Israelfo su frɛɛ yɛn Agya wɔ Midianfo nti no,

⁸yɛn Agya somaa odiyifo bi kɔɔ Israelfo nkyɛn, ma ɔkae se, “Sɛɛ na yɛn Agya, Israel Nyankopɔn, se: Mede mo fii Misraim, nkoasom fi no mu bae. ⁹Megyee mo fii Misraimfo nsam ne mo nhyɛsofo nyinaa nsam; mepam wɔn fii mo anim, na mede wɔn asase maa mo. ¹⁰Meka kyerɛɛ mo se: Mene mo Agya; munnsuro Amorifo a mote wɔn asase so no anyame. Nanso moantie me nne.”

¹¹Yɛn Agya bɔfo baa bɛtenaa odum dua a ɛwɔ Ofra a ɛyɛ Abiesrini Yoas de no ase, bere a ne ba Gideon rebɔ awi wɔ nsakyimena mu, sɛ ɔde besie Midianfo.

¹²Yɛn Agya bɔfo no yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ no, na ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Yɛn Agya ka wo ho, ɔkatakyi.”

¹³Gideon ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Mesrɛ wo, me wura, sɛ yɛn Agya ka yɛn ho a, adɛn nti na eyinom nyinaa aba yɛn so? Ne nsɛnkyerɛnne nwonwaso a yɛn agyanom kaa ho asɛm kyerɛɛ yɛn se, ‘Ɛnyɛ ɔno na ɔde yɛn fii Misraim bae?’ no nyinaa wɔ he? Nanso afei yɛn Agya agyaw yɛn, de yɛn ahyɛ Midianfo nsa.”

¹⁴Yɛn Agya dan nʼani kyerɛɛ no se, “Fa wʼahoɔden yi kɔ, na kɔgye Israel fi Midianfo nsam. Ɛnyɛ me na mesomaa wo yi?”

¹⁵Gideon kae se, “Mesrɛ wo, me Otumfo Agya, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na matumi agye Israel? Me abusua na ɛyɛ mmerɛw koraa wɔ Manase mu, na me na mesua koraa wɔ mʼagya fi.”

¹⁶Yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Nanso mɛka wo ho, na wobɛkunkum Midianfo sɛnea wokum onipa baako.”

¹⁷Gideon kae se, “Sɛ manya wʼanim dom a, ma me nsɛnkyerɛnne bi na mehu sɛ ampa ara wo ankasa na woreka asɛm akyerɛ me.

¹⁸Mesrɛ wo, nkɔ kosi sɛ mɛsan aba, na mede me afɔrebɔde abɛto wʼanim.” Ɔkae se, “Mɛtena ha akosi sɛ wobɛsan aba.”

¹⁹Gideon kɔɔ fie kɔsiesiee abirekyi ba, na ɔde esiam bɛyɛ kwɔta aduonu yɛɛ burodo a mmɔkaw nni mu; ɔde nam no guu kɛntɛn mu, na ɔde nam nsu no guu kukuo mu, de baa no wɔ odum dua no ase, na ɔde maa no.

²⁰Yɛn Agya bɔfo no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Fa nam no ne burodo a mmɔkaw nni mu no to ɔbotan yi so, na hwie nam nsu no gu.” Ɔyɛɛ saa.

²¹Yɛn Agya bɔfo no tenee poma a ɛwɔ ne nsam no, de ano kaa nam no ne burodo a mmɔkaw nni mu no. Ogya fii ɔbotan no mu, hyew nam no ne burodo a mmɔkaw nni mu no, na yɛn Agya bɔfo no yeraa fii nʼani so.

²²Bere a Gideon hui sɛ ɛyɛ yɛn Agya bɔfo no, ɔkae se, “Ao, Otumfo Agya! Efisɛ afei mahu wo bɔfo anim ne anim!”

²³Nanso yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Asomdwoe nka wo. Nsuro; worenwu.”

²⁴Gideon sii afɔremuka maa yɛn Agya wɔ hɔ, na ɔtoo no din se, “Yɛn Agya Yɛ Asomdwoe.” Ɛda so gyina Abiesrifo Ofra kosi nnɛ. ^a a v24 Gideon too afɔremuka yi din se “Yɛn Agya Yɛ Asomdwoe”, nkaede a ɛkae asomdwoe a yɛn Agya kaa kyerɛɛ no, bere a ehu kɛse kaa no sɛ obewu, esiane sɛ wahu no nti.

²⁵Anadwo no ara, yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Fa wʼagya nantwinini no, nea ɛto so abien a wadi mfe ason no, na bubu wʼagya Baal afɔremuka no gu, na twa Asera dua a ɛwɔ ne nkyɛn no gu. ²⁶Afei si afɔremuka a ɛfata ma me, wʼAgya, wɔ abannennen yi atifi. Fa nantwinini a ɛto so abien no, na fa Asera dua a woatwa agu no nnyina so bɔ no ɔhyew afɔre.”

²⁷Gideon faa nʼasomfo du, na ɔyɛɛ sɛnea yɛn Agya ka kyerɛɛ no no. Esiane sɛ na osuro nʼabusua ne kurom mmarima no dodo sɛ ɔbɛyɛ awia nti, ɔyɛe anadwo.

²⁸Bere a kurom mmarima no sɔree anɔpahema no, na wɔabubu Baal afɔremuka no agu, wɔatwa Asera dua a na ɛwɔ ne nkyɛn no agu, na wɔde nantwinini a ɛto so abien no abɔ afɔre wɔ afɔremuka foforo a wɔasi no so. ²⁹Wobisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho se, “Hena na ɔyɛɛ eyi?” Wɔhwehwɛɛ na wobisabisaa no, wɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Yoas ba Gideon na ɔyɛe.”

³⁰Kurom mmarima no ka kyerɛɛ Yoas se, “Fa wo ba no ba abɔnten ma onwu; wabubu Baal afɔremuka no agu, na watwa Asera dua a ɛwɔ ne nkyɛn no agu.” ³¹Yoas ka kyerɛɛ nnipakuw a wɔsɔre tiaa no no se, “Moredi Baal asɛm ama no? Moregye no? Obiara a obedi asɛm ama no no, obewu ansa na adekyee. Sɛ ɔyɛ onyame a, ɔmmɔ ne ho ban, efisɛ obi abubu nʼafɔremuka agu.” ³²Da no, wɔfrɛɛ Gideon Yerubaal, “Baal nko ntia no”, efisɛ obubuu Baal afɔremuka no gu.

³³Midianfo nyinaa, Amalekfo ne apuei fam nnipa no boaa wɔn ho ano, twaa asu, na wɔbɔɔ nsraban wɔ Yesreel Bon mu. ³⁴Afei yɛn Agya Honhom hyɛɛ Gideon sɛ ntade, na ɔhyɛn torobɛnto, na wɔfrɛɛ Abiesrifo sɛ wɔnni nʼakyi. ³⁵Ɔsomaa abɔfo kɔɔ Manase nyinaa mu, na wɔn nso boaa wɔn ho ano dii nʼakyi; ɔsomaa abɔfo nso kɔɔ Aser, Sebulon ne Naftali, na wɔn nso forɔɔ bɛhyiaa wɔn.

³⁶Gideon ka kyerɛɛ yɛn Agya se, “Sɛ wobɛfa me nsa so agye Israel, sɛnea wohyɛɛ bɔ no a, ³⁷mede oguan ho nhwi reto ayuyuw so. Sɛ obosu tɔ oguan ho nhwi no nko ara so, na fam nyinaa wosow a, ɛno de mehu sɛ wobɛfa me nsa so agye Israel, sɛnea wokae no.”

³⁸Ɛbaa saa ara. Ade kyee no, ɔsɔree anɔpahema kyi oguan ho nhwi no, na ɔkyikyimii obosu fii mu ma ɛyɛɛ kuruwa bi ma nsu.

³⁹Afei Gideon ka kyerɛɛ yɛn Agya se, “Mma wo bo mfuw me; ma menka bio pɛnkoro. Ma menfa oguan ho nhwi no nsɔ hwɛ bio: ma oguan ho nhwi no nwo, na obosu ntɔ fam nyinaa.”

⁴⁰Anadwo no, yɛn Agya yɛɛ saa. Oguan ho nhwi no nko ara na ɛwoe; obosu kataa fam nyinaa.
