اَلْقُضَاة 7
| فَبَكَّرَ يَرُبَّعْلُ، أَيْ جِدْعُونُ، وَكُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي مَعَهُ وَنَزَلُوا عَلَى عَيْنِ حَرُودَ. وَكَانَ جَيْشُ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ شِمَالِيَّهُمْ عِنْدَ تَلِّ مُورَةَ فِي ٱلْوَادِي. | ١ 1 |
Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people who were with him, rose up early, and encamped beside the spring of Harod. And the camp of Midian was on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.
| وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِجِدْعُونَ: «إِنَّ ٱلشَّعْبَ ٱلَّذِي مَعَكَ كَثِيرٌ عَلَيَّ لِأَدْفَعَ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ بِيَدِهِمْ، لِئَلَّا يَفْتَخِرَ عَلَيَّ إِسْرَائِيلُ قَائِلًا: يَدِي خَلَّصَتْنِي. | ٢ 2 |
And Jehovah said to Gideon, The people who are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, My own hand has saved me.
| وَٱلْآنَ نَادِ فِي آذَانِ ٱلشَّعْبِ قَائِلًا: مَنْ كَانَ خَائِفًا وَمُرْتَعِدًا فَلْيَرْجِعْ وَيَنْصَرِفْ مِنْ جَبَلِ جِلْعَادَ». فَرَجَعَ مِنَ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱثْنَانِ وَعِشْرُونَ أَلْفًا. وَبَقِيَ عَشَرَةُ آلَافٍ. | ٣ 3 |
Now therefore proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whoever is fearful and trembling, let him return and depart from mount Gilead. And there returned of the people twenty-two thousand, and there remained ten thousand.
| وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِجِدْعُونَ: «لَمْ يَزَلِ ٱلشَّعْبُ كَثِيرًا. اِنْزِلْ بِهِمْ إِلَى ٱلْمَاءِ فَأُنَقِّيَهُمْ لَكَ هُنَاكَ. وَيَكُونُ أَنَّ ٱلَّذِي أَقُولُ لَكَ عَنْهُ: هَذَا يَذْهَبُ مَعَكَ، فَهُوَ يَذْهَبُ مَعَكَ. وَكُلُّ مَنْ أَقُولُ لَكَ عَنْهُ: هَذَا لَا يَذْهَبُ مَعَكَ فَهُوَ لَا يَذْهَبُ». | ٤ 4 |
And Jehovah said to Gideon, The people are yet too many. Bring them down to the water, and I will try them for thee there. And it shall be, that of whom I say to thee, This man shall go with thee, the same shall go with thee, and of whomever I say to thee, This man shall not go with thee, the same shall not go.
| فَنَزَلَ بِٱلشَّعْبِ إِلَى ٱلْمَاءِ. وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِجِدْعُونَ: «كُلُّ مَنْ يَلَغُ بِلِسَانِهِ مِنَ ٱلْمَاءِ كَمَا يَلَغُ ٱلْكَلْبُ فَأَوْقِفْهُ وَحْدَهُ. وَكَذَا كُلُّ مَنْ جَثَا عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ لِلشُّرْبِ». | ٥ 5 |
So he brought down the people to the water. And Jehovah said to Gideon, Everyone who laps of the water with his tongue, as a dog laps, him thou shall set by himself. Likewise everyone who bows down upon his knees to drink.
| وَكَانَ عَدَدُ ٱلَّذِينَ وَلَغُوا بِيَدِهِمْ إِلَى فَمِهِمْ ثَلَاثَ مِئَةِ رَجُلٍ. وَأَمَّا بَاقِي ٱلشَّعْبِ جَمِيعًا فَجَثَوْا عَلَى رُكَبِهِمْ لِشُرْبِ ٱلْمَاءِ. | ٦ 6 |
And the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was three hundred men, but all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water.
| فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِجِدْعُونَ: «بِٱلثَّلَاثِ مِئَةِ ٱلرَّجُلِ ٱلَّذِينَ وَلَغُوا أُخَلِّصُكُمْ وَأَدْفَعُ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ لِيَدِكَ. وَأَمَّا سَائِرُ ٱلشَّعْبِ فَلْيَذْهَبُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ». | ٧ 7 |
And Jehovah said to Gideon, By the three hundred men who lapped I will save you, and deliver the Midianites into thy hand. And let all the people go every man to his place.
| فَأَخَذَ ٱلشَّعْبُ زَادًا بِيَدِهِمْ مَعَ أَبْوَاقِهِمْ. وَأَرْسَلَ سَائِرَ رِجَالِ إِسْرَائِيلَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى خَيْمَتِهِ، وَأَمْسَكَ ٱلثَّلَاثَ مِئَةِ ٱلرَّجُلِ. وَكَانَتْ مَحَلَّةُ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ تَحْتَهُ فِي ٱلْوَادِي. | ٨ 8 |
So the people took provision in their hand, and their trumpets. And he sent all the men of Israel every man to his tent, but retained the three hundred men. And the camp of Midian was beneath him in the valley.
| وَكَانَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةِ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَالَ لَهُ: «قُمِ ٱنْزِلْ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، لِأَنِّي قَدْ دَفَعْتُهَا إِلَى يَدِكَ. | ٩ 9 |
And it came to pass the same night, that Jehovah said to him, Arise, get thee down into the camp, for I have delivered it into thy hand.
| وَإِنْ كُنْتَ خَائِفًا مِنَ ٱلنُّزُولِ، فَٱنْزِلْ أَنْتَ وَفُورَةُ غُلَامُكَ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، | ١٠ 10 |
But if thou fear to go down, go thou with Purah thy servant down to the camp.
| وَتَسْمَعُ مَا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِهِ، وَبَعْدُ تَتَشَدَّدُ يَدَاكَ وَتَنْزِلُ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ». فَنَزَلَ هُوَ وَفُورَةُ غُلَامُهُ إِلَى آخِرِ ٱلْمُتَجَهِّزِينَ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ. | ١١ 11 |
And thou shall hear what they say, and afterward thy hands shall be strengthened to go down into the camp. Then he went down with Purah his servant to the outermost part of the armed men who were in the camp.
| وَكَانَ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيُّونَ وَٱلْعَمَالِقَةُ وَكُلُّ بَنِي ٱلْمَشْرِقِ حَالِّينَ فِي ٱلْوَادِي كَٱلْجَرَادِ فِي ٱلْكَثْرَةِ، وَجِمَالُهُمْ لَا عَدَدَ لَهَا كَٱلرَّمْلِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى شَاطِئِ ٱلْبَحْرِ فِي ٱلْكَثْرَةِ. | ١٢ 12 |
And the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the sons of the east lay along in the valley like locusts for multitude, and their camels were without number, as the sand which is upon the sea-shore for multitude.
| وَجَاءَ جِدْعُونُ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ يُخَبِّرُ صَاحِبَهُ بِحُلْمٍ وَيَقُولُ: «هُوَذَا قَدْ حَلُمْتُ حُلْمًا، وَإِذَا رَغِيفُ خُبْزِ شَعِيرٍ يَتَدَحْرَجُ فِي مَحَلَّةِ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ، وَجَاءَ إِلَى ٱلْخَيْمَةِ وَضَرَبَهَا فَسَقَطَتْ، وَقَلَبَهَا إِلَى فَوْقُ فَسَقَطَتِ ٱلْخَيْمَةُ». | ١٣ 13 |
And when Gideon came, behold, there was a man telling a dream to his fellow. And he said, Behold, I dreamed a dream. And, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian, and came to the tent, and smote it so that it fell, and turned it upside down so that the tent lay flat.
| فَأَجَابَ صَاحِبُهُ وَقَالَ: «لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ إِلأَّ سَيْفَ جِدْعُونَ بْنِ يُوآشَ رَجُلِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. قَدْ دَفَعَ ٱللهُ إِلَى يَدِهِ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ وَكُلَّ ٱلْجَيْشِ». | ١٤ 14 |
And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else except the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel. Into his hand God has delivered Midian, and all the army.
| وَكَانَ لَمَّا سَمِعَ جِدْعُونُ خَبَرَ ٱلْحُلْمِ وَتَفْسِيرَهُ، أَنَّهُ سَجَدَ وَرَجَعَ إِلَى مَحَلَّةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَقَالَ: «قُومُوا لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ دَفَعَ إِلَى يَدِكُمْ جَيْشَ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ». | ١٥ 15 |
And it was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation of it, that he worshiped. And he returned into the camp of Israel, and said, Arise, for Jehovah has delivered the army of Midian into your hand.
| وَقَسَمَ ٱلثَّلَاثَ مِئَةِ ٱلرَّجُلِ إِلَى ثَلَاثِ فِرَقٍ، وَجَعَلَ أَبْوَاقًا فِي أَيْدِيهِمْ كُلِّهِمْ، وَجِرَارًا فَارِغَةً وَمَصَابِيحَ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْجِرَارِ. | ١٦ 16 |
And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put trumpets into the hands of all of them, and empty pitchers, with torches inside the pitchers.
| وَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱنْظُرُوا إِلَيَّ وَٱفْعَلُوا كَذَلِكَ. وَهَا أَنَا آتٍ إِلَى طَرَفِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، فَيَكُونُ كَمَا أَفْعَلُ أَنَّكُمْ هَكَذَا تَفْعَلُونَ. | ١٧ 17 |
And he said to them, Look on me, and do likewise, and, behold, when I come to the outermost part of the camp, it shall be that, as I do, so ye shall do.
| وَمَتَى ضَرَبْتُ بِٱلْبُوقِ أَنَا وَكُلُّ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعِي، فَٱضْرِبُوا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ حَوْلَ كُلِّ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، وَقُولُوا: لِلرَّبِّ وَلِجِدْعُونَ». | ١٨ 18 |
When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then blow ye the trumpets also on every side of all the camp, and say, For Jehovah and for Gideon.
| فَجَاءَ جِدْعُونُ وَٱلْمِئَةُ ٱلرَّجُلِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ إِلَى طَرَفِ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ فِي أَوَّلِ ٱلْهَزِيعِ ٱلْأَوْسَطِ، وَكَانُوا إِذْ ذَاكَ قَدْ أَقَامُوا ٱلْحُرَّاسَ، فَضَرَبُوا بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ وَكَسَّرُوا ٱلْجِرَارَ ٱلَّتِي بِأَيْدِيهِمْ. | ١٩ 19 |
So Gideon, and the hundred men who were with him, came to the outermost part of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch when they had but newly set the watch. And they blew the trumpets, and broke in pieces the pitchers that were in their hands.
| فَضَرَبَتِ ٱلْفِرَقُ ٱلثَّلَاثُ بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ وَكَسَّرُوا ٱلْجِرَارَ، وَأَمْسَكُوا ٱلْمَصَابِيحَ بِأَيْدِيهِمِ ٱلْيُسْرَى وَٱلْأَبْوَاقَ بِأَيْدِيهِمِ ٱلْيُمْنَى لِيَضْرِبُوا بِهَا، وَصَرَخُوا: «سَيْفٌ لِلرَّبِّ وَلِجِدْعُونَ». | ٢٠ 20 |
And the three companies blew the trumpets, and broke the pitchers, and held the torches in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands with which to blow. And they cried out, The sword of Jehovah and of Gideon.
| وَوَقَفُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِي مَكَانِهِ حَوْلَ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ. فَرَكَضَ كُلُّ ٱلْجَيْشِ وَصَرَخُوا وَهَرَبُوا. | ٢١ 21 |
And they stood every man in his place round about the camp. And all the army ran, and they shouted, and put them to flight.
| وَضَرَبَ ٱلثَّلَاثُ ٱلْمِئِينَ بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ، وَجَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ سَيْفَ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ بِصَاحِبِهِ وَبِكُلِّ ٱلْجَيْشِ. فَهَرَبَ ٱلْجَيْشُ إِلَى بَيْتِ شِطَّةَ، إِلَى صَرَدَةَ حَتَّى إِلَى حَافَةِ آبَلِ مَحُولَةَ، إِلَى طَبَّاةَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And they blew the three hundred trumpets, and Jehovah set every man's sword against his fellow, and against all the army. And the army fled as far as Beth-shittah toward Zererah, as far as the border of Abel-meholah, by Tabbath.
| فَٱجْتَمَعَ رِجَالُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ نَفْتَالِي وَمِنْ أَشِيرَ وَمِنْ كُلِّ مَنَسَّى وَتَبِعُوا ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
And the men of Israel were gathered together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after Midian.
| فَأَرْسَلَ جِدْعُونُ رُسُلًا إِلَى كُلِّ جَبَلِ أَفْرَايِمَ قَائِلًا: «ٱنْزِلُوا لِلِقَاءِ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ وَخُذُوا مِنْهُمُ ٱلْمِيَاهَ إِلَى بَيْتِ بَارَةَ وَٱلْأُرْدُنِّ». فَٱجْتَمَعَ كُلُّ رِجَالِ أَفْرَايِمَ وَأَخَذُوا ٱلْمِيَاهَ إِلَى بَيْتِ بَارَةَ وَٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. | ٢٤ 24 |
And Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill-country of Ephraim, saying, Come down against Midian, and take before them the waters, as far as Beth-barah, even the Jordan. So all the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and took the waters as far as Beth-barah, even the Jordan.
| وَأَمْسَكُوا أَمِيرَيِ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ غُرَابًا وَذِئْبًا، وَقَتَلُوا غُرَابًا عَلَى صَخْرَةِ غُرَابٍ، وَأَمَّا ذِئْبٌ فَقَتَلُوهُ فِي مِعْصَرَةِ ذِئْبٍ. وَتَبِعُوا ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ وَأَتَوْا بِرَأْسَيْ غُرَابٍ وَذِئْبٍ إِلَى جِدْعُونَ مِنْ عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And they took the two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb. And they killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian. And they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon beyond the Jordan.
