< 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
And he rose early Jerub-Baal that [is] Gideon and all the people which [was] with him and they encamped at En Harod and [the] camp of Midian it was of him from [the] north from [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 he said Yahweh to Gideon [is too] numerous the people which [is] with you than to give I Midian in hand their lest it should glorify itself over me Israel saying hand my it has delivered 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
And therefore proclaim please in [the] ears of the people saying who? [is] fearful and trembling let him go back and he may go from [the] mountain of Gilead and it returned of the people twenty and two thousand and ten thousand they remained.
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 he said Yahweh to Gideon still the people [is] numerous bring down them to the water so I may test it for you there and it will be [the one] whom I will say to you this [one] - he will go with you he he will go with you and every [one] whom I will say to you this [one] not he will go with you he not he will 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
And he brought down the people to the water. And he said Yahweh to Gideon every [one] who he will lap up with tongue his some of the water just as it laps up the dog you will set him alone and every [one] who he will bow down on knees his to drink.
وَكَانَ عَدَدُ ٱلَّذِينَ وَلَغُوا بِيَدِهِمْ إِلَى فَمِهِمْ ثَلَاثَ مِئَةِ رَجُلٍ. وَأَمَّا بَاقِي ٱلشَّعْبِ جَمِيعًا فَجَثَوْا عَلَى رُكَبِهِمْ لِشُرْبِ ٱلْمَاءِ. ٦ 6
And it was [the] number of those [who] lapped with hand their to mouth their three hundred man and all [the] remainder of the people they bowed down on knees their 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 he said Yahweh to Gideon by three hundred the man who lapped I will deliver you and I will give Midian in hand your and all the people let them go each to own place his.
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
And they took provision[s] the people in hand their and trumpets their and every man of Israel he sent away each to tents his and on three hundred the man he kept hold and [the] camp of Midian it was to him from under in the valley.
وَكَانَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةِ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَالَ لَهُ: «قُمِ ٱنْزِلْ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، لِأَنِّي قَدْ دَفَعْتُهَا إِلَى يَدِكَ. ٩ 9
And it was in the night that and he said to him Yahweh arise go down in the camp for I have given it in hand your.
وَإِنْ كُنْتَ خَائِفًا مِنَ ٱلنُّزُولِ، فَٱنْزِلْ أَنْتَ وَفُورَةُ غُلَامُكَ إِلَى ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، ١٠ 10
And if [are] afraid you to go down go down you and Purah servant your 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 you will hear what? will they speak and after they will be strong hands your and you will go down in the camp and he went down he and Purah servant his to [the] edge of those arrayed for battle 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 Midian and Amalek and all [the] people of [the] east [were] lying in the valley like locust[s] for multitude and [belonged] to camels their not number like the sand that [is] on [the] shore of the sea 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 he came Gideon and there! a man [was] recounting to neighbor his a dream and he said here! a dream I have dreamed and there! (a round loaf of *Qk) bread of barley [was] tumbling in [the] camp of Midian and it came to the tent and it struck it and it fell and it overturned it upwards and it fell the tent.
فَأَجَابَ صَاحِبُهُ وَقَالَ: «لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ إِلأَّ سَيْفَ جِدْعُونَ بْنِ يُوآشَ رَجُلِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. قَدْ دَفَعَ ٱللهُ إِلَى يَدِهِ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ وَكُلَّ ٱلْجَيْشِ». ١٤ 14
And he answered neighbor his and he said not this [is] except [the] sword of Gideon [the] son of Joash a man of Israel he has given God in hand his 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 when heard Gideon [the] recounting of the dream and interpretation its and he bowed down and he returned to [the] camp of Israel and he said arise for he has given Yahweh in hand your [the] camp of Midian.
وَقَسَمَ ٱلثَّلَاثَ مِئَةِ ٱلرَّجُلِ إِلَى ثَلَاثِ فِرَقٍ، وَجَعَلَ أَبْوَاقًا فِي أَيْدِيهِمْ كُلِّهِمْ، وَجِرَارًا فَارِغَةً وَمَصَابِيحَ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْجِرَارِ. ١٦ 16
And he divided three hundred the man three companies and he put trumpets in [the] hand of all of them and jars empty and torches in [the] midst of the jars.
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 from me you will see and thus you will do and here! I [will be] coming in [the] edge of the camp and it will be just as I will do so you will do!
وَمَتَى ضَرَبْتُ بِٱلْبُوقِ أَنَا وَكُلُّ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعِي، فَٱضْرِبُوا أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ حَوْلَ كُلِّ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ، وَقُولُوا: لِلرَّبِّ وَلِجِدْعُونَ». ١٨ 18
And I will give a blast on the trumpet I and all who [are] with me and you will give a blast on the trumpets also you all around all the camp and you will say for Yahweh 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
And he went Gideon and one hundred man who [were] with him in [the] edge of the camp [the] beginning of the watch middle just as certainly they had stationed the watchmen and they gave a blast on the trumpets and they smashed the jars which [were] in hand their.
فَضَرَبَتِ ٱلْفِرَقُ ٱلثَّلَاثُ بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ وَكَسَّرُوا ٱلْجِرَارَ، وَأَمْسَكُوا ٱلْمَصَابِيحَ بِأَيْدِيهِمِ ٱلْيُسْرَى وَٱلْأَبْوَاقَ بِأَيْدِيهِمِ ٱلْيُمْنَى لِيَضْرِبُوا بِهَا، وَصَرَخُوا: «سَيْفٌ لِلرَّبِّ وَلِجِدْعُونَ». ٢٠ 20
And they gave a blast [the] three the companies on the trumpets and they broke the jars and they took hold in [the] hand of left their on the torches and in [the] hand of right their the trumpets to give a blast and they called out a sword for Yahweh and for Gideon.
وَوَقَفُوا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِي مَكَانِهِ حَوْلَ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ. فَرَكَضَ كُلُّ ٱلْجَيْشِ وَصَرَخُوا وَهَرَبُوا. ٢١ 21
And they stood everyone in place his round about the camp and it ran all the army and they shouted in distress (and they fled. *QK)
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 gave a blast [the] three hundred the trumpets and he set Yahweh [the] sword of each on neighbor his and on all the army and it fled the army to Beth Shittah towards Zererah to [the] border of Abel Meholah at Tabbath.
فَٱجْتَمَعَ رِجَالُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ نَفْتَالِي وَمِنْ أَشِيرَ وَمِنْ كُلِّ مَنَسَّى وَتَبِعُوا ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّينَ. ٢٣ 23
And it was summoned [the] man of Israel from Naphtali and from Asher and from all Manasseh and they 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 messengers he sent Gideon in all [the] hill country of Ephraim saying come down to meet Midian and capture to them the waters to Beth Barah and the Jordan and he was summoned every man of Ephraim and they captured the waters to Beth Barah and 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 captured [the] two [the] commanders of Midian Oreb and Zeeb and they killed Oreb at [the] rock of Oreb and Zeeb they killed at [the] winepress of Zeeb and they pursued Midian and [the] head of Oreb and Zeeb they brought to Gideon from [the] other side of the Jordan.
