Then
Yærubba`al
יְרֻבַּעַל,°
who°
[is]
Giđ`ôn
גִּדעוֹן,°
and all°
the people°
that°
[were] with°
him, rose up early,°°
and pitched°°
beside°
the well°
of
Çáröđ
חֲרֹד:°
so that the host°
of the
Miđyänîm
מִדיָנִים°
were°
on the north side°°
of them, by the hill°°
of
Môrè
מוֹרֶה,°
in the valley.° |
|
7:1 ¶
Then Yerubbaal, who [is] Gidon, and all the people that [were] with him, rose up early, and pitched beside the well of Charod: so that the host of the Midyanim were on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley. |
|
7:2
And
Yähwè
יָהוֶה°
said°°
unto°
Giđ`ôn
גִּדעוֹן,°
The people°
that°
[are] with°
thee [are] too many°
for me to give°°°
the
Miđyänîm
מִדיָנִים°
into their hands,°
lest°
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
vaunt°°
themselves°
against°
me, saying,°°
Mine own hand°
hath saved°°
me. |
|
7:2
And Yahweh said unto Gidon, The people that [are] with thee [are] too many for me to give the Midyanim into their hands, lest Yisrael vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me. |
|
7:3
Now°
therefore go to,°
proclaim°°
in the ears°
of the people,°
saying,°°
Whosoever°
[is] fearful°
and afraid,°
let him return°°
and depart early°°
from mount°°
Gil`äđ
גִּלעָד.°
And there returned°°
of°
the people°
twenty°
and two°
thousand;°
and there remained°°
ten°
thousand.° |

7:3
Now therefore go to, proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whosoever [is] fearful and afraid, let him return and depart early from mount Gilad. And there returned of the people twenty and two thousand; and there remained ten thousand. |
|
7:4
And
Yähwè
יָהוֶה°
said°°
unto°
Giđ`ôn
גִּדעוֹן,°
The people°
[are] yet°
[too] many;°
bring them down°°°
unto°
the water,°
and I will try°°
them for thee there:°
and it shall be,°
[that] of whom°
I say°°
unto°
thee, This°
shall go°°°
with°
thee, the same°
shall go°°°
with°
thee; and of whomsoever°°
I say°°
unto°
thee, This°
shall not°
go°°°
with°
thee, the same°
shall not°
go.°°° |
|
7:4
And Yahweh said unto Gidon, The people [are] yet [too] many; bring them down unto the water, and I will try them for thee there: and it shall be, [that] of whom I say unto thee, This shall go with thee, the same shall go with thee; and of whomsoever I say unto thee, This shall not go with thee, the same shall not go. |
|
7:5
So he brought down°°°
the people°
unto°
the water:°
and
Yähwè
יָהוֶה°
said°°
unto°
Giđ`ôn
גִּדעוֹן,°
Every one°
that°
lappeth°°
of°
the water°
with his tongue,°
as°
a dog°
lappeth,°°
him shalt thou set°°
by himself;°
likewise every one°
that°
boweth down°°
upon°
his knees°
to drink.°° |
|
7:5
So he brought down the people unto the water: and Yahweh said unto Gidon, Every one that lappeth of the water with his tongue, as a dog lappeth, him shalt thou set by himself; likewise every one that boweth down upon his knees to drink. |
|
7:6
And the number°
of them that lapped,°°
[putting] their hand°
to°
their mouth,°
were°
three°
hundred°
men:°
but all°
the rest°
of the people°
bowed down°°
upon°
their knees°
to drink°°
water.° |
|
7:6
And the number of them that lapped, [putting] their hand to their mouth, were three hundred men: but all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water. |
|
7:7
And
Yähwè
יָהוֶה°
said°°
unto°
Giđ`ôn
גִּדעוֹן,°
By the three°
hundred°
men°
that lapped°°
will I save°°
you, and deliver°°°
the
Miđyänîm
מִדיָנִים°
into thine hand:°
and let all°
the [other] people°
go°°°
every man°
unto his place.° |
|
7:7
And Yahweh said unto Gidon, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midyanim into thine hand: and let all the [other] people go every man unto his place. |
|
7:8
So the people°
took°°°
victuals°
in their hand,°
and their trumpets:°
and he sent°°
all°°
[the rest of]
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
every man°
unto his tent,°
and retained°°
those three°
hundred°
men:°
and the host°
of
Miđyän
מִדיָן°
was°
beneath°°
him in the valley.° |
|
7:8
So the people took victuals in their hand, and their trumpets: and he sent all [the rest of] Yisrael every man unto his tent, and retained those three hundred men: and the host of Midyan was beneath him in the valley. |
|
7:9 ¶
And it came to pass°
the same°
night,°
that
Yähwè
יָהוֶה°
said°°
unto°
him, Arise,°°
get thee down°°
unto the host;°
for°
I have delivered°°
it into thine hand.° |
|
7:9 ¶
And it came to pass the same night, that Yahweh said unto him, Arise, get thee down unto the host; for I have delivered it into thine hand. |
|
7:10
But if°
thou°
fear°°
to go down,°°
go°°
thou°
with
Purà
פֻּרָה°
thy servant°
down°°
to°
the host:° |
|
7:10
But if thou fear to go down, go thou with Purah thy servant down to the host: |
|
7:11
And thou shalt hear°°
what°
they say;°°
and afterward°
shall thine hands°
be strengthened°°
to go down°°
unto the host.°
Then went he down°°
with
Purà
פֻּרָה°
his servant°
unto°
the outside°
of the armed men°
that°
[were] in the host.° |
|
7:11
And thou shalt hear what they say; and afterward shall thine hands be strengthened to go down unto the host. Then went he down with Purah his servant unto the outside of the armed men that [were] in the host. |
|
7:12
And the
Miđyänîm
מִדיָנִים°
and the
`Ámälëkîm
עֲמָלֵקִים°°
and all°
the children°
of the east°
lay°°
along in the valley°
like grasshoppers°
for multitude;°
and their camels°
[were] without°
number,°
as the sand°
by°°
the sea°
side°
for multitude.° |
|
7:12
And the Midyanim and the Amaleqim and all the children of the east lay along in the valley like grasshoppers for multitude; and their camels [were] without number, as the sand by the sea side for multitude. |

Giđ`ôn
גִּדעוֹן°
was come,°°
behold,°
[there was] a man°
that told°°
a dream°
unto his fellow,°
and said,°°
Behold,°
I dreamed°°
a dream,°
and, lo,°
a cake°°
of barley°
bread°
tumbled°°
into the host°
of
Miđyän
מִדיָן,°
and came°°
unto°
a tent,°
and smote°°
it that it fell,°°
and overturned°°°
it, that the tent°
lay along.°° |
|
7:13

|
7:14
And his fellow°
answered°°
and said,°°
This°
[is] nothing else°
save°°
the sword°
of
Giđ`ôn
גִּדעוֹן°
the son°
of
Yô´äš
יוֹאָשׁ,°
a man°
of
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל:°
[for] into his hand°
hath
´Élöhîm
אֱלֹהִים°
delivered°°°
Miđyän
מִדיָן,°
and all°
the host.° |
|
7:14
And his fellow answered and said, This [is] nothing else save the sword of Gidon the son of Yoash, a man of Yisrael: [for] into his hand hath Elohim delivered Midyan, and all the host. |
|
7:15 ¶
And it was°
[so], when
Giđ`ôn
גִּדעוֹן°
heard°°°
the telling°
of the dream,°
and the interpretation°
thereof, that he worshipped,°°
and returned°°
into°
the host°
of
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל,°
and said,°°
Arise;°°

יָהוֶה°
hath delivered°°
into your hand°°
the host°
of
Miđyän
מִדיָן.° |
|
7:15 ¶

7:16
And he divided°°°
the three°
hundred°
men°
[into] three°

hand,°
with empty°
pitchers,°

within°

them, Look°°
on°
me, and do°°
likewise:°
and, behold,°
when I°
come°°
to the outside°
of the camp,°
it shall be°
[that], as°
I do,°°
so°
shall ye do.°° |
|
7:17

|
7:18
When I blow°°
with a trumpet,°
I°
and all°
that°
[are] with°
me, then blow°°
ye°
the trumpets°
also°
on every side°
of all°
