14 Di hoo o maa ga helekai, “Ma go tulumanu dauwa o tangada Israel, Gideon, go di tama a Joash! Ma e deemee di hai tuai hadinga! God la guu wanga gi mee di maaloo i digau Midian mo tadau gau dauwa hagatau!”
15 Di madagoaa Gideon ne longono ia di midi taane deelaa mo dono hadinga, gei mee gaa bala gi hongo ono duli ga daumaha gi Dimaadua. Gei mee gaa hana gi muli gi di waahale laa digau Israel ga helekai, “Tu gi nua, Dimaadua le e gowadu gi goodou di maaloo i digau dauwa Midian!” 16 Mee ga wwae dolu ana gau e dolu lau, gaa wanga gi tangada nei mo tangada nei dana buu ‘trumpet’ mo dana loaabi dela iai di lama ulaula i ono lodo. 17 Gideon ga hagi anga gi digaula, “Dogu dau adu gi taalinga di gowaa digaula, goodou ga mmada mai gi di au, gaa hai be dagu hai dela e hai. 18 Au mo dagu buini ma ga ili madau buu ‘trumpet’, gei goodou ilihia huogodoo godou buu ‘trumpet’ mo di wwolo boloo, ‘Ang gi Dimaadua mo ang gi Gideon!’ ”
