Judges 7
1 Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people that were with him, rose up early, and pitched beside the well of Harod: so that the host of the Midianites were on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.
И обутренева Иероваал, сей есть Гедеон, и вси людие иже с ним, и ополчишася у источника Арад: и полк Мадиамль и Амаликов бяше ему с севера на холме Мосе Гавааф-Аморе в долине.
2 And YHWH said unto Gideon, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me.
И рече Господь к Гедеону: мнози людие иже с тобою, сего ради не предам Мадиама в руку их, да не когда похвалится Израиль на Мя, глаголя: рука моя спасе мя:
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 Gilead. And there returned of the people twenty and two thousand; and there remained ten thousand.
и ныне рцы во ушы людем, глаголя: кто боязлив и ужастив, да возвратится и да отидет от горы Галаадовы. И возвратишася от людий двадесять две тысящы, и десять тысящ осташася.
4 And YHWH said unto Gideon, 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.
И рече Господь к Гедеону: еще людие мнози суть: сведи я на воду, и искушу тебе их тамо: и будет егоже аще реку тебе, сей да идет с тобою, той да пойдет с тобою: и всяк егоже аще реку тебе, сей да не пойдет с тобою, той да не пойдет с тобою.
5 So he brought down the people unto the water: and YHWH said unto Gideon, 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.
И сведе люди на воду, и рече Господь к Гедеону: всяк иже полочет языком своим от воды, якоже лочет пес, да поставиши его особь: и всяк иже на колену падет пити, отлучи его особь.
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.
И бысть число в горстех локавших языком триста мужей: и вси оставшии людие преклонишася на колена своя пити воду.
7 And YHWH said unto Gideon, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the other people go every man unto his place.
И рече Господь к Гедеону: треми сты мужей локавшими воду спасу вас, и предам Мадиама в руку твою: и вси людие да пойдут, кийждо на место свое.
8 So the people took victuals in their hand, and their trumpets: and he sent all the rest of Israel every man unto his tent, and retained those three hundred men: and the host of Midian was beneath him in the valley.
И взяша себе брашно от людий в руку свою и роги своя: и всякаго мужа Израилтеска отпусти коегождо в кущу свою, а триста мужей удержа: полк же Мадиамль бяше ниже его в долине.
9 And it came to pass the same night, that YHWH said unto him, Arise, get thee down unto the host; for I have delivered it into thine hand.
И бысть в ту нощь, и рече к нему Господь: востав сниди отсюду скоро в полк, яко предах их в руку твою:
10 But if thou fear to go down, go thou with Phurah thy servant down to the host:
и аще боишися ты снити, сниди ты и Фара раб твой в полк,
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 Phurah his servant unto the outside of the armed men that were in the host.
и услышиши, что возглаголют: и по сем укрепятся руце твои, и снидеши в полк. И сниде сам и Фара раб его в часть пятьдесятников, иже быша в полце.
12 And the Midianites and the Amalekites 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.
И Мадиам и Амалик и вси сынове востоков стояху в долине яко прузи множеством, и велблюдом их не бяше числа, но бяху яко песок на краи морстем множеством.
13 And when Gideon 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 Midian, and came unto a tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it, that the tent lay along.
И вниде Гедеон, и се, муж поведаше сон подругу своему, и рече: сей сон егоже видех, и се, тесто хлеба ячна валяющееся в полце Мадиамли, и привалися к кущи Мадиамли, и поби ю, и преврати ю, и паде куща.
14 And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: for into his hand hath Elohim delivered Midian, and all the host.
И отвеща подруг его и рече: несть (сие тесто), но мечь Гедеона сына Иоасова мужа Израилева: предаде Бог в руку его Мадиама и весь полк.
15 And it was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and returned into the host of Israel, and said, Arise; for YHWH hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian.
И бысть яко услыша Гедеон поведание сна и разсуждение его, и поклонися Господеви, и возвратися в полк Израилев и рече: востаните, яко предаде Господь в руки нашя полк Мадиамль.
16 And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet in every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.
И раздели триста мужей на три началства, и вдаде роги в руце всем, и водоносы тщы, и свещы среде водоносов,
17 And he said unto 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.
и рече им: мене смотрите, и такожде творите: и се, аз вниду в часть полка, и будет якоже сотворю, такожде сотворите:
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 the camp, and say, The sword of YHWH, and of Gideon.
и аз вострублю рогом, и вси иже со мною, да вострубите и вы в роги окрест всего полка, и да речете: (мечь) Богу и Гедеону.
19 So Gideon, and the hundred men that were with him, came unto the outside of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch; and they had but newly set the watch: and they blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers that were in their hands.
И вниде Гедеон и сто мужей иже с ним в часть полка в начале стражи средния: и убужением возбудиша стрегущих, и вострубиша в роги, и сразиша водоносы иже в руках их.
20 And the three companies blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers, and held the lamps in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands to blow withal: and they cried, The sword of YHWH, and of Gideon.
И вострубиша три началства в роги и сокрушиша водоносы, и удержаша в левых руках своих свещы, и в десных руках их роги, в няже трубити: и возопиша: мечь Господеви и Гедеону.
21 And they stood every man in his place round about the camp: and all the host ran, and cried, and fled.
И сташа кийждо о себе окрест полка: и смятеся весь полк, и возопиша, и побегоша.
22 And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and YHWH set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout all the host: and the host fled to Beth-shittah in Zererath, and to the border of Abel-meholah, unto Tabbath.
И вострубиша в триста рогов: и положи Господь мечь мужа на подруга его во всем полце, и пробеже полк до Вифасетта, и собрася до страны Авелмаула и к Тавафу.
23 And the men of Israel gathered themselves together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after the Midianites.
И возопиша мужие Израилтестии от Неффалима и от Асира и от всего Манассии, и погнаша вслед Мадиама.
24 And Gideon sent messengers throughout all mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites, and take before them the waters unto Beth-barah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and took the waters unto Beth-barah and Jordan.
И посла послы Гедеон во всю гору Ефремлю, глаголя: снидите во сретение Мадиаму и удержите им воду до Вефира и Иордана. И воззва всяк муж Ефремль, и предотяша воду до Вефира и Иордана,
25 And they took two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew Oreb upon the rock Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side Jordan.
и яша два князя Мадиамля, Орива и Зива: и убиша Орива в Суре, и Зива убиша во Иакефзиве: и погнаша Мадиама, и главу Орива и Зива принесоша к Гедеону от оноя страны Иордана.
