| 8 1 | And the men of Ephraim said to him, "What is this that you have done to us, not to call us when you went to fight with Midian?" And they upbraided him violently. | Final defeat of Midian. Jdg.8.1-28 | וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו אִישׁ אֶפְרַיִם מָה־הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה עָשִׂיתָ לָּנוּ לְבִלְתִּי קְרֹאות לָנוּ כִּי הָלַכְתָּ לְהִלָּחֵם בְּמִדְיָן וַיְרִיבוּן אִתֹּו בְּחָזְקָה׃ |
|
| 2 | And he said to them, "What have I done now in comparison with you? Is not the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer? | | וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם מֶה־עָשִׂיתִי עַתָּה כָּכֶם הֲלֹוא טֹוב עֹלְלֹות אֶפְרַיִם מִבְצִיר אֲבִיעֶזֶר׃ |
|
| 3 | God has given into your hands the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb; what have I been able to do in comparison with you?" Then their anger against him was abated, when he had said this. | | בְּיֶדְכֶם נָתַן אֱלֹהִים אֶת־שָׂרֵי מִדְיָן אֶת־עֹרֵב וְאֶת־זְאֵב וּמַה־יָּכֹלְתִּי עֲשֹׂות כָּכֶם אָז רָפְתָה רוּחָם מֵעָלָיו בְּדַבְּרֹו הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה׃ |
|
| 4 | And Gideon came to the Jordan and passed over, he and the three hundred men who were with him, faint yet pursuing. | | וַיָּבֹא גִדְעֹון הַיַּרְדֵּנָה עֹבֵר הוּא וּשְׁלֹשׁ־מֵאֹות הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר אִתֹּו עֲיֵפִים וְרֹדְפִים׃ |
|
| 5 | So he said to the men of Succoth, "Pray, give loaves of bread to the people who follow me; for they are faint, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna, the kings of Midian." | | וַיֹּאמֶר לְאַנְשֵׁי סֻכֹּות תְּנוּ־נָא כִּכְּרֹות לֶחֶם לָעָם אֲשֶׁר בְּרַגְלָי כִּי־עֲיֵפִים הֵם וְאָנֹכִי רֹדֵף אַחֲרֵי זֶבַח וְצַלְמֻנָּע מַלְכֵי מִדְיָן׃ |
|
| 6 | And the officials of Succoth said, "Are Zebah and Zalmunna already in your hand, that we should give bread to your army?" | | וַיֹּאמֶר שָׂרֵי סֻכֹּות הֲכַף זֶבַח וְצַלְמֻנָּע עַתָּה בְּיָדֶךָ כִּי־נִתֵּן לִצְבָאֲךָ לָחֶם׃ |
|
| 7 | And Gideon said, "Well then, when Yahweh has given Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand, I will flail your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers." | | וַיֹּאמֶר גִּדְעֹון לָכֵן בְּתֵת יְהוָה אֶת־זֶבַח וְאֶת־צַלְמֻנָּע בְּיָדִי וְדַשְׁתִּי אֶת־בְּשַׂרְכֶם אֶת־קֹוצֵי הַמִּדְבָּר וְאֶת־הַבַּרְקֳנִים׃ |
|
| 8 | And from there he went up to Penuel, and spoke to them in the same way; and the men of Penuel answered him as the men of Succoth had answered. | | וַיַּעַל מִשָּׁם פְּנוּאֵל וַיְדַבֵּר אֲלֵיהֶם כָּזֹאת וַיַּעֲנוּ אֹותֹו אַנְשֵׁי פְנוּאֵל כַּאֲשֶׁר עָנוּ אַנְשֵׁי סֻכֹּות׃ |
|
| 9 | And he said to the men of Penuel, "When I come again in peace, I will break down this tower." | | וַיֹּאמֶר גַּם־לְאַנְשֵׁי פְנוּאֵל לֵאמֹר בְּשׁוּבִי בְשָׁלֹום אֶתֹּץ אֶת־הַמִּגְדָּל הַזֶּה׃ ף |
|
| 10 | Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor with their army, about fifteen thousand men, all who were left of all the army of the people of the East; for there had fallen a hundred and twenty thousand men who drew the sword. | | וְזֶבַח וְצַלְמֻנָּע בַּקַּרְקֹר וּמַחֲנֵיהֶם עִםָּם כַּחֲמֵשֶׁת עָשָׂר אֶלֶף כֹּל הַנֹּותָרִים מִכֹּל מַחֲנֵה בְנֵי־קֶדֶם וְהַנֹּפְלִים מֵאָה וְעֶשְׂרִים אֶלֶף אִישׁ שֹׁלֵף חָרֶב׃ |
|
| 11 | And Gideon went up by the caravan route east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and attacked the army; for the army was off its guard. | | וַיַּעַל גִּדְעֹון דֶּרֶךְ הַשְּׁכוּנֵי בָאֳהָלִים מִקֶּדֶם לְנֹבַח וְיָגְבֳּהָה וַיַּךְ אֶת־הַמַּחֲנֶה וְהַמַּחֲנֶה הָיָה בֶטַח׃ |
|
| 12 | And Zebah and Zalmunna fled; and he pursued them and took the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and he threw all the army into a panic. | | וַיָּנוּסוּ זֶבַח וְצַלְמֻנָּע וַיִּרְדֹּף אַחֲרֵיהֶם וַיִּלְכֹּד אֶת־שְׁנֵי מַלְכֵי מִדְיָן אֶת־זֶבַח וְאֶת־צַלְמֻנָּע וְכָל־הַמַּחֲנֶה הֶחֱרִיד׃ |
|
| 13 | Then Gideon the son of Joash returned from the battle by the ascent of Heres. | | וַיָּשָׁב גִּדְעֹון בֶּן־יֹואָשׁ מִן־הַמִּלְחָמָה מִלְמַעֲלֵה הֶחָרֶס׃ |
|
| 14 | And he caught a young man of Succoth, and questioned him; and he wrote down for him the officials and elders of Succoth, seventy-seven men. | | וַיִּלְכָּד־נַעַר מֵאַנְשֵׁי סֻכֹּות וַיִּשְׁאָלֵהוּ וַיִּכְתֹּב אֵלָיו אֶת־שָׂרֵי סֻכֹּות וְאֶת־זְקֵנֶיהָ שִׁבְעִים וְשִׁבְעָה אִישׁ׃ |
|
| 15 | And he came to the men of Succoth, and said, "Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, about whom you taunted me, saying, 'Are Zebah and Zalmunna already in your hand, that we should give bread to your men who are faint?" | | וַיָּבֹא אֶל־אַנְשֵׁי סֻכֹּות וַיֹּאמֶר הִנֵּה זֶבַח וְצַלְמֻנָּע אֲשֶׁר חֵרַפְתֶּם אֹותִי לֵאמֹר הֲכַף זֶבַח וְצַלְמֻנָּע עַתָּה בְּיָדֶךָ כִּי נִתֵּן לַאֲנָשֶׁיךָ הַיְּעֵפִים לָחֶם׃ |
|
| 16 | And he took the elders of the city and he took thorns of the wilderness and briers and with them taught the men of Succoth. | | וַיִּקַּח אֶת־זִקְנֵי הָעִיר וְאֶת־קֹוצֵי הַמִּדְבָּר וְאֶת־הַבַּרְקֳנִים וַיֹּדַע בָּהֶם אֵת אַנְשֵׁי סֻכֹּות׃ |
|
| 17 | And he broke down the tower of Penuel, and slew the men of the city. | | וְאֶת־מִגְדַּל פְּנוּאֵל נָתָץ וַיַּהֲרֹג אֶת־אַנְשֵׁי הָעִיר׃ |
|
| 18 | Then he said to Zebah and Zalmunna, "Where are the men whom you slew at Tabor?" They answered, "As you are, so were they, every one of them; they resembled the sons of a king." | | וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל־זֶבַח וְאֶל־צַלְמֻנָּע אֵיפֹה הָאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר הֲרַגְתֶּם בְּתָבֹור וַיֹּאמְרוּ כָּמֹוךָ כְמֹוהֶם אֶחָד כְּתֹאַר בְּנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ׃ |
|
| 19 | And he said, "They were my brothers, the sons of my mother; as Yahweh lives, if you had saved them alive, I would not slay you." | | וַיֹּאמַר אַחַי בְּנֵי־אִמִּי הֵם חַי־יְהוָה לוּ הַחֲיִתֶם אֹותָם לֹא הָרַגְתִּי אֶתְכֶם׃ |
|
| 20 | And he said to Jether his first-born, "Rise, and slay them." But the youth did not draw his sword; for he was afraid, because he was still a youth. | | וַיֹּאמֶר לְיֶתֶר בְּכֹורֹו קוּם הֲרֹג אֹותָם וְלֹא־שָׁלַף הַנַּעַר חַרְבֹּו כִּי יָרֵא כִּי עֹודֶנּוּ נָעַר׃ |
|
| 21 | Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, "Rise yourself, and fall upon us; for as the man is, so is his strength." And Gideon arose and slew Zebah and Zalmunna; and he took the crescents that were on the necks of their camels. | | וַיֹּאמֶר זֶבַח וְצַלְמֻנָּע קוּם אַתָּה וּפְגַע־בָּנוּ כִּי כָאִישׁ גְּבוּרָתֹו וַיָּקָם גִּדְעֹון וַיַּהֲרֹג אֶת־זֶבַח וְאֶת־צַלְמֻנָּע וַיִּקַּח אֶת־הַשַּׂהֲרֹנִים אֲשֶׁר בְּצַוְּארֵי גְמַלֵּיהֶם׃ |
|
| 22 | Then the men of Israel said to Gideon, "Rule over us, you and your son and your grandson also; for you have delivered us out of the hand of Midian." | | וַיֹּאמְרוּ אִישׁ־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל־גִּדְעֹון מְשָׁל־בָּנוּ גַּם־אַתָּה גַּם־בִּנְךָ גַּם בֶּן־בְּנֶךָ כִּי הֹושַׁעְתָּנוּ מִיַּד מִדְיָן׃ |
|
| 23 | Gideon said to them, "I will not rule over you, and my son will not rule over you; Yahweh will rule over you." | | וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵהֶם גִּדְעֹון לֹא־אֶמְשֹׁל אֲנִי בָּכֶם וְלֹא־יִמְשֹׁל בְּנִי בָּכֶם יְהוָה יִמְשֹׁל בָּכֶם׃ |
|
| 24 | And Gideon said to them, "Let me make a request of you; give me every man of you the earrings of his spoil." (For they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.) | | וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵהֶם גִּדְעֹון אֶשְׁאֲלָה םִכֶּם שְׁאֵלָה וּתְנוּ־לִי אִישׁ נֶזֶם שְׁלָלֹו כִּי־נִזְמֵי זָהָב לָהֶם כִּי יִשְׁמְעֵאלִים הֵם׃ |
|
| 25 | And they answered, "We will willingly give them." And they spread a garment, and every man cast in it the earrings of his spoil. | | וַיֹּאמְרוּ נָתֹון נִתֵּן וַיִּפְרְשׂוּ אֶת־הַשִּׂמְלָה וַיַּשְׁלִיכוּ שָׁמָּה אִישׁ נֶזֶם שְׁלָלֹו׃ |
