| 1 | Then Jerobaal, who is the same as Gedeon, rising up early and all the people with him, came to the fountain that is called Harad. Now the camp of Madian was in the valley on the north side of the high hill. | Καὶ ὤρθρισεν Ἱεροβάαλ, αὐτός ἐστι Γεδεὼν, καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐπὶ πηγὴν Ἀράδ· καὶ παρεμβολὴ Μαδιὰμ ἦν αὐτῷ ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ ἀπὸ Γαβααθαμωραὶ ἐν κοιλάδι. |
| 2 | And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people that are with thee are many, and Madian shall not be delivered into their hands: lest Israel should glory against me, and say: I was delivered by my own strength. | Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Γεδεὼν, πολὺς ὁ λαὸς ὁ μετὰ σοῦ, ὥστε μὴ παραδοῦναί με τὴν Μαδιὰμ ἐν χειρὶ αὐτῶν, μὴ ποτε καυχήσηται Ἰσραὴλ ἐπʼ ἐμὲ, λέγων, ἡ χείρ μου ἔσωσέ με. |
| 3 | Speak to the people, and proclaim in the hearing of all, I Whosoever is fearful and timorous, let him return. So two and twenty thousand men went away from mount Galaad and returned home, and only ten thousand remained. | Καὶ νῦν λάλησον δὴ ἐν ὠσὶ τοῦ λαοῦ, λέγων, τίς ὁ φοβούμενος καὶ δειλός; ἐπιστραφέτω καὶ ἐκχωρείτω ἀπὸ ὄρους Γαλαάδ· καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν ἀπὸ τοῦ λαοῦ εἴκοσι καὶ δύο χιλιάδες, καὶ δέκα χιλιάδες ὑπελείφθησαν. |
| 4 | And the Lord said to Gedeon: The people are still too many, bring them to the waters, and there I will try them: and of whom I shall say to thee, This shall go with thee, let him go: whom I shall forbid to go, let him return. | Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Γεδεὼν, ἔτι ὁ λαὸς πολύς ἐστι· κατένεγκον αὐτοὺς πρὸς τὸ ὕδωρ, καὶ ἐκκαθαρῶ σοι αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ· καὶ ἔσται ὃν ἐὰν εἴπω πρὸς σὲ, οὗτος πορεύσεται σὺν σοὶ, αὐτὸς πορεύσεται σὺν σοί· καὶ πᾶς ὃν ἂν εἴπω πρὸς σὲ, οὗτος οὐ πορεύσεται μετὰ σοῦ, αὐτὸς οὐ πορεύσεται μετὰ σοῦ. |
| 5 | And when the people were come down to the waters, the Lord said to Gedeon: They that shall lap the water with their tongues, as dogs are wont to lap, thou shalt set apart by themselves: but they that shall drink bowing down their knees, shall be on the other side. | Καὶ κατήνεγκε τὸν λαὸν πρὸς τὸ ὕδωρ· καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Γεδεὼν, πᾶς ὃς ἂν λάψῃ τῇ γλώσσῃ αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ ὕδατος ὡς ἐὰν λάψῃ ὁ κύων, στήσεις αὐτὸν κατὰ μόνας, καὶ πᾶς ὃς ἐὰν κλίνῃ ἐπὶ τὰ γόνατα αὐτοῦ πιεῖν. |
| 6 | And the number of them that had lapped water, casting it with the hand to their mouth, was three hundred men: and all the rest of the multitude had drunk kneeling. | Καὶ ἐγένετο ὁ ἀριθμὸς τῶν λαψάντων ἐν χειρὶ αὐτῶν πρὸς τὸ στόμα αὐτῶν, τριακόσιοι ἄνδρες· καὶ πᾶν τὸ κατάλοιπον τοῦ λαοῦ ἔκλιναν ἐπὶ τὰ γόνατα αὐτῶν πιεῖν ὕδωρ. |
| 7 | And the Lord said to Gedeon: By the three hundred men, that lapped water, I will save you, and deliver Madian into thy hand: but let all the rest of the people return to their place. | Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Γεδεὼν, ἐν τοῖς τριακοσίοις ἀνδράσι τοῖς λάψασι σώσω ὑμᾶς, καὶ δώσω τὴν Μαδιὰμ ἐν χειρί σου, καὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς πορεύσονται ἀνὴρ εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ. |
| 8 | So taking victuals and trumpets according to their number, he ordered all the rest of the multitude to depart to their tents: and he with the three hundred gave himself to the battle. Now the camp of Madian was beneath him in the valley. | Καὶ ἔλαβον τὸν ἐπισιτισμὸν τοῦ λαοῦ ἐν χειρὶ αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰς κερατίνας αὐτῶν· καὶ τὸν πάντα ἄνδρα Ἰσραὴλ ἐξαπέστειλεν ἄνδρα εἰς σκηνὴν αὐτοῦ· καὶ τοὺς τριακοσίους ἄνδρας κατίσχυσε· καὶ ἡ παρεμβολὴ Μαδιὰμ ἦσαν αὐτοῦ ὑποκάτω ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι. |
| 9 | The same night the Lord said to him: Arise, and go down into the camp: because I have delivered them into thy hand. | Καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν Κύριος, ἀνάστα, κατάβηθι ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ, ὅτι παρέδωκα αὐτὴν ἐν τῇ χειρί σου. |
| 10 | But if thou be afraid to go alone, let Phara thy servant go down with thee. | Καὶ εἰ φοβῇ σὺ καταβῆναι, κατάβηθι σὺ καὶ Φαρὰ τὸ παιδάριόν σου εἰς τὴν παρεμβολὴν, |
| 11 | And when thou shalt hear what they are saying, then shall thy hands be strengthened, and thou shalt go down more secure to the enemies’ camp. And he went down with Phara his servant into part of the camp, where was the watch of men in arms. | καὶ ἀκούσῃ τί λαλήσουσι, καὶ μετὰ τοῦτο ἰσχύσουσιν αἱ χεῖρές σου καὶ καταβήσῃ ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ· καὶ κατέβη αὐτὸς καὶ Φαρὰ τὸ παιδάριον αὐτοῦ πρὸς ἀρχὴν τῶν πεντήκοντα, οἳ ἦσαν ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ. |
| 12 | But Madian and Amalec, and all the eastern people lay scattered in the valley, as a multitude of locusts: their camels also were innumerable as the sand that lieth on the sea shore. | Καὶ Μαδιὰμ καὶ Ἀμαλὴκ καὶ πάντες οἱ υἱοὶ ἀνατολῶν βεβλημένοι ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι ὡς ἀκρὶς εἰς πλῆθος, καὶ ταῖς καμήλοις αὐτῶν οὐκ ἦν ἀριθμὸς, ἀλλʼ ἦσαν ὡς ἡ ἄμμος ἡ ἐπὶ χείλους τῆς θαλάσσης εἰς πλῆθος. |
| 13 | And when Gedeon was come, one told his neighbour a dream: and in this manner related what he had seen: I dreamt a dream, and it seemed to me as if a hearth cake of barley bread rolled and came down into the camp of Madian: and when it was come to a tent it struck it, and beat it down flat to the ground. | Καὶ ἦλθε Γεδεὼν, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ ἐξηγούμενος τῷ πλησίον αὐτοῦ ἐνύπνιον, καὶ εἶπεν, ἰδοὺ ἐνυπνιασάμην ἐνύπνιον, καὶ ἰδοὺ μαγὶς ἄρτου κριθίνου στρεφομένη ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ Μαδιὰμ, καὶ ἦλθεν ἕως τῆς σκηνῆς, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὴν, καὶ ἔπεσε, καὶ ἀνέστρεψεν αὐτὴν ἄνω, καὶ ἔπεσεν ἡ σκηνή. |
| 14 | He to whom he spoke, answered: This is nothing else but the sword of Gedeon the son of Joas a man of Israel. For the Lord hath delivered Madian, and all their camp into his hand. | Καὶ ἀπεκρίθη ὁ πλησίον αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπεν, οὐκ ἔστιν αὕτη εἰ μὴ ῥομφαία Γεδεὼν υἱοῦ Ἰωὰς ἀνδρὸς Ἰσραήλ· παρέδωκεν ὁ Θεὸς ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ τὴν Μαδιὰμ καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν παρεμβολήν. |
| 15 | And when Gedeon had heard the dream, and the interpretation thereof, he adored: and returned to the camp of Israel, and said: Arise, for the Lord hath delivered the camp of Madian into our hands. | Καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἤκουσε Γεδεὼν τὴν ἐξήγησιν τοῦ ἐνυπνίου καὶ τὴν σύγκρισιν αὐτοῦ, καὶ προσεκύνησε Κυρίῳ, καὶ ὑπέστρεψεν εἰς τὴν παρεμβολὴν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ εἶπεν, ἀνάστητε, ὅτι παρέδωκε Κύριος ἐν χειρὶ ἡμῶν τὴν παρεμβολὴν Μαδιάμ. |
| 16 | And he divided the three hundred men into three parts, and gave them trumpets in their hands, and empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers. | Καὶ διεῖλε τοὺς τριακοσίους ἄνδρας εἰς τρεῖς ἀρχὰς, καὶ ἔδωκε κερατίνας ἐν χειρὶ πάντων, καὶ ὑδρίας κενὰς, καὶ λαμπάδας ἐν ταῖς ὑδρίαις, |
| 17 | And he said to them: What you shall see me do, do you the same: I will go into one part of the camp, and do you as I shall do. | καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτοὺς, ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ ὄψεσθε, καὶ οὕτω ποιήσετε· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ εἰσπορεύομαι ἐν ἀρχῇ τῆς παρεμβολῆς, καὶ ἔσται καθὼς ἂν ποιήσω, οὕτω ποιήσετε. |
| 18 | When the trumpet shall sound in my hand, do you also blow the trumpets on every side of the camp. | Καὶ σαλπιῶ ἐν τῇ κερατίνῃ ἐγὼ, καὶ πάντες μετʼ ἐμοῦ σαλπιεῖτε ἐν ταῖς κερατίναις κύκλῳ ὅλης τῆς παρεμβολῆς, καὶ ἐρεῖτε, τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ τῷ Γεδεών. |
| 19 | And Gedeon, and the three hundred men that were with him, went into part of the camp, at the beginning of the midnight watch, and the watchmen being alarmed, they began to sound their trumpets, and to clap the pitchers one against another. | Καὶ εἰσῆλθε Γεδεὼν καὶ οἱ ἐκατὸν ἄνδρες οἱ μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἐν ἀρχῇ τῆς παρεμβολῆς ἐν ἀρχῇ τῆς φυλακῆς μέσης· καὶ ἐγείροντες ἤγειραν τοὺς φυλάσσοντας, καὶ ἐσάλπισαν ἐν ταῖς κερατίναις, καὶ ἐξετίναξαν τὰς ὑδρίας τὰς ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν. |
| 20 | And when they sounded their trumpets in three places round about the camp, and had broken their pitchers, they held their lamps in their left hands, and with their right hands the trumpets which they blew, and they cried out: The sword of the Lord and of Gedeon; | Καὶ ἐσάλπισαν αἱ τρεῖς ἀρχαὶ ἐν ταῖς κερατίναις, καὶ συνέτριψαν τὰς ὑδρίας, καὶ ἐκράτησαν ἐν χερσὶν ἀριστεραῖς αὐτῶν τὰς λαμπάδας, καὶ ἐν χερσὶ δεξιαῖς αὐτῶν τὰς κερατίνας τοῦ σαλπίζειν· καὶ ἀνέκραξαν, ῥομφαία τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ τῷ Γεδεών. |
| 21 | Standing every man in his place round about the enemies’ camp. So all the camp was troubled, and crying out and howling they fled away. | Καὶ ἔστησεν ἀνὴρ ἐφʼ ἑαυτῷ κύκλῳ τῆς παρεμβολῆς· καὶ ἔδραμε πᾶσα ἡ παρεμβολὴ, καὶ ἐσήμαναν, καὶ ἔφυγον. |
| 22 | And the three hundred men nevertheless persisted sounding the trumpets. And the Lord sent the sword into all the camp, and they killed one another, | Καὶ ἐσάλπισαν ἐν ταῖς τριακοσίαις κερατίναις· καὶ ἔθηκε Κύριος τὴν ῥομφαίαν ἀνδρὸς ἐν τῷ πλησίον αὐτοῦ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ παρεμβολῇ. |
| 23 | Fleeing as far as Bethsetta, and the border of Abelmahula in Tebbath. But the men of Israel shouting from Nephtali and Aser, and from all Manasses pursued after Madian. | Καὶ ἔφυγεν ἡ παρεμβολὴ ἕως Βηθσεὲδ Ταγαραγαθὰ Ἀβελμεουλὰ ἐπὶ Ταβάθ· καὶ ἐβόησαν ἀνὴρ Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ Νεφθαλὶ καὶ ἀπὸ Ἀσὴρ, καὶ ἀπὸ παντὸς Μανασσῆ, καὶ ἐδίωξαν ὀπίσω Μαδιάμ. |
| 24 | And Gedeon sent messengers into all mount Ephraim, saying: Come down to meet Madian, and take the waters before them to Bethbera and the Jordan. And all Ephraim shouted, and took the waters before them and the Jordan as far as Bethbera. | Καὶ ἀγγέλους ἀπέστειλε Γεδεὼν ἐν παντὶ ὄρει Ἐφραὶμ, λέγων, κατάβητε εἰς συνάντησιν Μαδιὰμ, καὶ καταλάβετε ἑαυτοῖς τὸ ὕδωρ ἕως Βαιθηρὰ καὶ τὸν Ἰορδάνην· καὶ ἐβόησε πᾶς ἀνὴρ Ἐφραὶμ, καὶ προκατελάβοντο τὸ ὕδωρ ἕως Βαιθηρὰ καὶ τὸν Ἰορδάνην. |
| 25 | And having taken two men of Madian, Oreb and Zeb: Oreb they slew in the rock of Oreb, and Zeb in the winepress of Zeb. And they pursued Madian, carrying the heads of Oreb and Zeb to Gedeon beyond the waters of the Jordan. | Καὶ συνελάβοντο τοὺς ἄρχοντας Μαδιὰμ, καὶ τὸν Ὠρὴβ καὶ τὸν Ζήβ· καὶ ἀπέκτειναν τὸν Ὠρὴβ ἐν Σοὺρ Ὠρὴβ, καὶ τὸν Ζὴβ ἀπέκτειναν ἐν Ἱακεφζήφ· καὶ κατεδίωξαν τὴν Μαδιάμ· καὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν Ὠρὴβ καὶ Ζὴβ ἤνεγκαν πρὸς Γεδεὼν ἀπὸ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου. |
