1 Og Israels Børn gjorde ondt for Herrens Øjne, og Herren gav dem i Midianiternes Haand syv Aar.
And they did [the] people of Israel the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and he gave them Yahweh in [the] hand of Midian seven years.
2 Og der Midianiternes Haand blev stærk over Israel, da gjorde Israels Børn sig Kløfter, som vare i Bjergene, og Huler og Befæstninger for Midianiternes Skyld.
And it prevailed [the] hand of Midian over Israel because of Midian they made for themselves - [the] people of Israel the dens which [are] in the mountains and the caves and the strongholds.
3 Og det skete, naar Israel havde saaet, da kom Midianiterne og Amalekiterne op og de Folk af Østen, de kom op over dem.
And it was if it sowed Israel and it went up Midian and Amalek and [the] people of [the] east and they went up on him.
4 Og de lejrede sig imod dem, og de ødelagde Landets Grøde, indtil man kommer til Gaza; og de lode ikke Føde blive tilovers i Israel, ej heller Faar eller Okse eller Asen.
And they encamped on them and they destroyed [the] produce of the land until coming you Gaza and not they left sustenance in Israel and a sheep and an ox and a donkey.
5 Thi de kom op med deres Kvæg og deres Telte; de kom ligesom Græshopper i Mangfoldighed, saa at der ikke var Tal paa dem og deres Kameler; og de kom i Landet at ødelægge det.
For they and livestock their they came up and tents their (and they came *Q(K)*) according to [the] abundance of locust[s] for multitude and [belonged] to them and to camels their not number and they came in the land to destroy it.
6 Og Israel blev forarmet for Midianiternes Ansigt, og Israels Børn raabte til Herren.
And it became low Israel very because of Midian and they cried out [the] people of Israel to Yahweh.
7 Og det skete, der Israels Børn raabte til Herren for Midianiternes Skyld,
And it was that they cried out [the] people of Israel to Yahweh on [the] causes of Midian.
8 da sendte Herren en Mand, en Profet, til Israels Børn, og han sagde til dem: Saa siger Herren, Israels Gud: Jeg førte eder op af Ægypten og udførte eder af Trælles Hus.
And he sent Yahweh a man a prophet to [the] people of Israel and he said to them thus he says Yahweh - [the] God of Israel I I brought up you from Egypt and I brought out you from a house of slaves.
9 Og jeg udfriede eder af Ægypternes Haand og af alle deres Haand, som trængte eder; og jeg uddrev dem fra eders Ansigt og gav eder deres Land.
And I delivered you from [the] hand of Egypt and from [the] hand of all [those who] oppressed you and I drove out them from before you and I gave! to you land their.
10 Og jeg sagde til eder: Jeg er Herren eders Gud, frygter ikke Amoriternes Guder, i hvis Land I bo; men I have ikke været min Røst lydige.
And I said! to you I [am] Yahweh God your not you must fear [the] gods of the Amorite[s] whom you [are] dwelling in land their and not you have listened to voice my.
11 Og Herrens Engel kom og satte sig under den Eg, som er i Ofra, som hørte Joas, den Abiesriter, til; og hans Søn Gideon tærskede Hvede i en Vinperse, at han kunde føre det hastig bort fra Midianiternes Ansigt.
And he came [the] angel of Yahweh and he sat under the oak which [was] in Ophrah which [belonged] to Joash [the] Abi-ezrite and Gideon son his [was] beating out wheat in the winepress to hide [it] from Midian.
12 Da aabenbaredes Herrens Engel for ham, og han sagde til ham: Herren være med dig, du vældige til Strid!
And he appeared to him [the] angel of Yahweh and he said to him Yahweh [is] with you O mighty [man] of strength.
13 Men Gideon sagde til ham: Hør mig, min Herre! om Herren er med os, hvi har da alt dette ramt os? og hvor ere alle hans underlige Ting, som vore Fædre fortalte os og sagde: Førte Herren os ikke op af Ægypten? men nu har Herren forladt os og givet os i Midianiternes Haand.
And he said to him Gideon pardon me O lord my and there Yahweh [is] with us and why? has it found us all this and where? [are] all wonders his which they recounted to us fathers our saying ¿ not from Egypt did he bring up us Yahweh and now he has abandoned us Yahweh and he has given us in [the] hand of Midian.
14 Da vendte Herren sig til ham og sagde: Gaa hen i denne din Kraft, og du skal frelse Israel af Midianiternes Haand; har jeg ikke sendt dig?
And he turned to him Yahweh and he said go in strength your this and you will deliver Israel from [the] hand of Midian ¿ not have I sent you.
15 Og han sagde til ham: Hør mig, Herre! hvormed skal jeg frelse Israel? se, min Slægt er den ringeste i Manasse, og jeg er den yngste i min Faders Hus.
And he said to him pardon me O Lord how? will I deliver Israel here! family my [is] the weak in Manasseh and I [am] the insignificant in [the] house of father my.
16 Og Herren sagde til ham: Sandelig, jeg vil være med dig; og du skal slaa Midianiterne som een Mand.
And he said to him Yahweh that I will be with you and you will strike down Midian like a man one.
17 Da sagde han til ham: Kære, dersom jeg har fundet Naade for dine Øjne, da gør mig et Tegn, at du er den, deltaler med mig.
And he said to him if please I have found favor in view your and you will do for me a sign that you [are] speaking with me.
18 Kære, vig ikke bort herfra, indtil jeg kommer til dig og bringer min Skænk og sætter den frem for dit Ansigt; og han sagde: Jeg vil blive, indtil du kommer tilbage.
May not please you depart from here until come I to you and I will bring out gift my and I will set [it] before you and he said I I will remain until returning you.
19 Og Gideon kom og tilberedte et Gedekid og en Efa Mel til usyrede Kager, han lagde Kødet i en Kurv og kom Suppen i en Potte, og han førte det ud til ham under Egen og satte det frem.
And Gideon he went and he prepared a kid of goats and an ephah of flour of unleavened bread the meat he put in the basket and the broth he put in the pot and he brought [them] out to him to under the oak and he brought [them] near.
20 Da sagde den Guds Engel til ham: Tag Kødet og de usyrede Kager og læg det paa denne Klippe og udøs Suppen; og han gjorde saaledes.
And he said to him [the] angel of God take the meat and the unleavened bread and set [them] to the rock this and the broth pour out and he did so.
21 Da udrakte Herrens Engel det yderste af den Kæp, som han havde i sin Haand, og rørte ved Kødet og ved de usyrede Kager; og der udfor Ild af Klippen og fortærede Kødet og de usyrede Kager, og Herrens Engel for bort fra hans Øjne.
And he stretched out [the] angel of Yahweh [the] end of the staff which [was] in hand his and he touched the meat and the unleavened bread and it went up the fire from the rock and it consumed the meat and the unleavened bread and [the] angel of Yahweh he went from eyes his.
22 Der Gideon saa, at det var Herrens Engel, da sagde Gideon: Ak Herre, Herre! — thi derfor har jeg set Herrens Engel Ansigt til Ansigt.
And he saw Gideon that [was] [the] angel of Yahweh it. And he said Gideon alas! O Lord Yahweh for since I have seen [the] angel of Yahweh face to face.
23 Og Herren sagde til ham: Fred være med dig, frygt ikke, du skal ikke dø.
And he said to him Yahweh peace [be] to you may not you be afraid not you will die.
24 Da byggede Gideon Herren et Alter der og kaldte det: Herren er Fred; indtil denne Dag staar det endnu i Ofra, som hører Abiesriterne til.
And he built there Gideon an altar to Yahweh and he called it Yahweh [is] peace until the day this still it [is] in Ophrah of [the] Abi-ezrite[s].
25 Og det skete den samme Nat, at Herren sagde til ham: Tag en ung Okse, som er din Faders, og den anden syvaarige Okse, og du skal nedbryde Baals Alter, som er din Faders, og omhugge Astartebilledet, som staar derhos.
And it was in the night that and he said to him Yahweh take [the] young bull of the ox which [belongs] to father your and [the] young bull the second seven years and you will tear down [the] altar of Baal which [belongs] to father your and the Asherah pole which [is] at it you will cut down.
26 Og du skal bygge Herren din Gud et Alter oven paa denne stærke Klippe, hvor den er jævn; og du skal tage den anden Okse og ofre et Brændoffer ved Træet af Astartebilledet, som du skal omhugge.
And you will build an altar to Yahweh God your on [the] top of the place of refuge this in the row and you will take the young bull second and you will offer up a burnt offering with [the] wood of the Asherah pole which you will cut down.
27 Da tog Gideon ti Mænd af sine Tjenere og gjorde, som Herren havde sagt til ham; og det skete, eftersom han frygtede for sin Faders Hus og for Mændene i Staden at gøre det om Dagen, da gjorde han det om Natten.
And he took Gideon ten men from servants his and he did just as he had spoken to him Yahweh and it was since he feared [the] household of father his and [the] men of the city from acting by day and he acted night.
28 Og Mændene i Staden stode aarle op om Morgenen, og se, da var Baals Alter nedbrudt, og Astartebilledet, som var derhos, var omhugget; og den anden Okse var ofret paa det byggede Alter.
And they rose early [the] men of the city in the morning and there! it was torn down [the] altar of Baal and the Asherah pole which [was] at it it was cut down and the young bull second it had been offered up on the altar which had been built.
29 Da sagde den ene til den anden: Hvo har gjort denne Gerning? Og der de ransagede og eftersøgte, da sagde de: Gideon, Joas's Søn, har gjort denne Gerning.
And they said each to neighbor his who? has he done the thing this and they investigated and they searched and they said Gideon [the] son of Joash he has done the thing this.
30 Da sagde Mændene i Staden til Joas: Før din Søn hid, thi han skal dø, fordi han har nedbrudt Baals Alter, og fordi han har omhugget Astartebilledet, som var derhos.
And they said [the] men of the city to Joash bring out son your so may he die for he has torn down [the] altar of Baal and for he has cut down the Asherah pole which [was] at it.
31 Da sagde Joas til alle dem, som stode hos ham: Ville I stride for Baal? mon I ville frelse ham? hvo som strider for ham, han skal dødes inden Morgen; dersom han er Gud, da stride han for sig selv, fordi man nedbrød hans Alter.
And he said Joash to all [those] who they stood on him ¿ you - will you conduct a case! for Baal or? you will you deliver! him [the one] who he will conduct a case for him he will be put to death until the morning if [is] a god he let him conduct a case for himself if someone has torn down altar his.
32 Og man kaldte ham paa den Dag Jerub-Baal, idet man sagde: Baal stride imod ham, efterdi han har nedbrudt hans Alter.
And someone called him on the day that Jerub-Baal saying let him conduct a case against him Baal for he has torn down altar his.
33 Og alle Midianiterne og Amalekiterne og Folkene af Øster samledes til Hobe, og de droge over og sloge Lejr i Jisreels Dal.
And all Midian and Amalek and [the] people of [the] east they gathered together and they passed over and they encamped in [the] valley of Jezreel.
34 Da iførte Herrens Aand sig Gideon, og han lod blæse i Trompeten, og Abiesers Slægt opbødes til at følge ham.
And [the] spirit of Yahweh it clothed Gideon and he gave a blast on the ram's horn (and it was called together *L(abh)*) Abiezer after him.
35 Og han sendte Bud til hele Manasse, og de bleve ogsaa opbudne til at følge ham; han sendte og Bud til Aser og til Sebulon og til Nafthali, og de kom dem i Møde.
And messengers he sent in all Manasseh (and it was called together *L(abh)*) also it after him and messengers he sent in Asher and in Zebulun and in Naphtali and they went up to meet them.
36 Og Gideon sagde til Gud: Dersom du vil frelse Israel ved min Haand, ligesom du har sagt,
And he said Gideon to God if there you [are] about to deliver by hand my Israel just as you have spoken.
37 se, da lægger jeg et Uldskind i Gaarden; dersom der vorder Dug paa Uldskindet alene og tørt paa al Jorden, da ved jeg, at du vil frelse Israel ved min Haand, som du har sagt.
Here! I [am] placing [the] fleece of wool on the threshing floor if dew it will be on the fleece to alone it and [will be] on all the ground dryness and I will know that you will deliver by hand my Israel just as you have spoken.
38 Og det skete saa; og der han stod anden Dag aarle op, da trykkede han Uldskindet ud og udkrystede Dug af Uldskindet, en Skaal fuld af Vand.
And it was so and he rose early from [the] next day and he squeezed out the fleece and he drained dew from the fleece [the] fullness of the bowl water.
39 Og Gideon sagde til Gud: Lad din Vrede ikke optændes mod mig, at jeg taler alene denne Gang; kære, jeg vil ikkun forsøge det endnu denne Gang med Uldskindet; kære, lad være tørt paa Uldskindet alene, og lad Dug være paa al Jorden.
And he said Gideon to God may not it burn anger your on me and let me speak only this time let me put to [the] test please only this time by the fleece let it be please dryness to the fleece to alone it and on all the ground let it be dew.
40 Og Gud gjorde det saaledes i den samme Nat, og der var tørt paa Uldskindet alene, og der var Dug paa al Jorden.
And he did God so in the night that and it was dryness to the fleece to alone it and on all the ground it was dew.
