< Judges 20 >
1 And they went out all [the] people of Israel and it was assembled the congregation like a man one from Dan and to Beer Sheba and [the] land of Gilead to Yahweh Mizpah.
Da rykkende alle Israeliterne ud, og Menigheden samledes som een Mand fra Dan til Be'ersjeba for HERREN i Mizpa; ogsaa fra Gileads Land kom de.
2 And they presented themselves [the] corners of all the people all [the] tribes of Israel in [the] assembly of [the] people of God four hundred thousand man on foot [who] drew a sword.
Alle Folkets Støtter, alle Israels Stammer indfandt sig i Guds Folks Forsamling, 400 000 Mand Fodfolk, væbnet med Sværd.
3 And they heard [the] descendants of Benjamin that they had gone up [the] people of Israel Mizpah and they said [the] people of Israel speak how? did it occur the evil this.
Benjaminiterne hørte, at Israeliterne var draget op til Mizpa. Og Israeliterne sagde: »Fortæl dog, hvorledes denne Misgerning gik for sig!«
4 And he answered the man the Levite [the] husband of the woman murdered and he said Gibeah towards which [belongs] to Benjamin I came I and concubine my to spend [the] night.
Da tog Manden, Leviten, den myrdede Kvindes Mand, til Orde og sagde: »Jeg og min Medhustru kom til Gibea i Benjamin for at overnatte der.
5 And they rose up on me [the] citizens of Gibeah and they surrounded on me the house night me they intended to kill and concubine my they abused and she died.
Saa rejste Gibeas Borgere sig imod mig og omringede mig om Natten i Huset; mig vilde de dræbe, og min Medhustru skændede de, saa at hun døde.
6 And I took hold on concubine my and I cut in pieces her and I sent off her in all [the] land of [the] inheritance of Israel for they have done wickedness and disgraceful folly in Israel.
Da tog jeg min Medhustru, skar hende i Stykker og sendte Stykkerne rundt i hele Israels Arvelods Omraade, fordi de havde begaaet grov Utugt og Skændselsdaad i Israel!
7 Here! all of you O people of Israel give for yourselves a word and counsel here.
Nu er I her, alle Israeliter, sig nu eders Mening og kom med eders Raad!«
8 And it arose all the people like a man one saying not we will go anyone to tent his and not we will depart anyone to house his.
Da rejste hele Folket sig som een Mand og sagde: »Ingen af os vil vende hjem, ingen af os vil begive sig til sit Hus!
9 And now this [is] the thing which we will do to Gibeah on it by lot.
Men saaledes vil vi handle med Gibea: Vi vil drage op imod det efter Lodkastning,
10 And we will take ten men to the hundred of all - [the] tribes of Israel and one hundred to the thousand and one thousand to the ten thousand to bring provision[s] for the people to do to coming their to Geba of Benjamin according to all the disgraceful folly which it did in Israel.
og vi vil udtage ti Mænd af hundrede af alle Israels Stammer, hundrede af tusind og tusind af titusind til at hente Fødemidler til Folket, til dem, som er kommet for fuldt ud at gengælde Gibea i Benjamin den Skændselsdaad, de har øvet i Israel!«
11 And it gathered every man of Israel to the city like a man one united.
Derpaa samlede alle Israels Mænd sig mod Byen, alle som een.
12 And they sent [the] tribes of Israel men in all [the] tribes of Benjamin saying what? [is] the evil this which it has happened among you.
Og Israels Stammer sendte Mænd ud i hele Benjamins Stamme og lod sige: »Hvad er det for en Misgerning, der er sket hos eder?
13 And therefore give up the men sons of worthlessness who [are] in Gibeah so we may put to death them and let us remove evil from Israel and not (they were willing [the] descendants *Q(K)*) of Benjamin to listen to [the] voice of brothers their [the] people of Israel.
Udlever nu Mændene i Gibea, de Niddinger, for at vi kan dræbe dem og skaffe Misgerningen bort fra Israel!« Men Benjaminiterne vilde ikke høre deres Brødre Israeliternes Ord.

af alle disse Krigsfolk var 700 udvalgte Krigere kejthaandede; de kunde alle slynge med Sten, saa de ramte paa et Haar uden at fejle.
17 And [the] man of Israel they were mustered apart from Benjamin four hundred thousand man [who] drew a sword all this [was] man of war.
Da Israels Mænd mønstredes, fraregnet Benjamin, udgjorde de 400 000 vaabenføre Mænd, der alle var Krigere.
18 And they arose and they went up Beth-el and they asked by God and they said [the] people of Israel who? will he go up for us at the first to the battle with [the] descendants of Benjamin and he said Yahweh Judah [will be] at the first.
De brød saa op og drog til Betel og raadspurgte Gud; og Israeliterne sagde: »Hvem af os skal først drage i Kamp mod Benjaminiterne?« HERREN svarede: »Det skal Juda!«
19 And they arose [the] people of Israel in the morning and they encamped on Gibeah.

23 And they went up [the] people of Israel and they wept before Yahweh until the evening and they enquired by Yahweh saying ¿ will I repeat to draw near for battle with [the] descendants of Benjamin brother my and he said Yahweh go up against him.
Da drog Israeliterne op til Betel og græd lige til Aften for HERRENS Aasyn; og de adspurgte HERREN: »Skal jeg atter tage Kampen op med min Broder Benjamins Sønner?« Og HERREN svarede: »Drag op imod ham!«

Saa drog alle Israeliterne, hele Folket, op til Betel; og de græd og sad der for HERRENS Aasyn og fastede den Dag lige til Aften, og de ofrede Brændofre og Takofre for HERRENS Aasyn.
27 And they enquired [the] people of Israel by Yahweh and [was] there [the] ark of [the] covenant of God in the days those.
Derpaa raadspurgte Israeliterne HERREN i de Dage var Guds Pagts Ark der,

og Pinehas, en Søn af Arons Søn Eleazar, gjorde i de Dage Tjeneste ved den — og de sagde: »Skal jeg atter drage i Kamp mod min Broder Benjamins Sønner eller lade være?« HERREN svarede: »Drag i Kamp, thi i Morgen giver jeg ham i din Haand!«
29 And it set Israel ambushers to Gibeah round about.
Israeliterne lagde nu Baghold rundt om Gibea.
30 And they went up [the] people of Israel against [the] descendants of Benjamin on the day third and they deployed against Gibeah as time on time.
Og Israeliterne drog op mod Benjaminiterne paa den tredje Dag og stillede sig op til Angreb paa Gibea ligesom de tidligere Gange.

Da nu Benjaminiterne gjorde Udfald mod Hæren, blev de afskaaret fra Byen og lokket ud paa Vejene til Betel og Gibeon; til at begynde med huggede de nogle al Folkene ned paa aaben Mark ligesom de tidligere Gange, omtrent tredive Mand af Israel,
32 And they said [the] descendants of Benjamin [are] defeated they before us as at the former [time] and [the] people of Israel they said let us flee and we will draw away him from the city to the highways.

40 And the rising it began to go up from the city a pillar of smoke and it turned Benjamin behind it and there! it went up [the] entirety of the city the heavens towards.

41 And [the] man of Israel he turned and he was terrified [the] man of Benjamin if he saw that it had touched to him calamity.
og samtidig vendte Israels Mænd om fra Flugten. Da blev Benjamins Mænd forfærdede, thi de indsaa, at Ulykken havde ramt dem;
42 And they turned before [the] man of Israel to [the] way of the wilderness and the battle it overtook him and [those] who [were] from the cities [were] destroying him in [the] midst of him.
og de gjorde omkring for Israels Mænd og flygtede ad Ørkenen til. Men Kampen fortsattes i Hælene paa dem. Og de fra Byerne huggede ned for Fode iblandt dem;
43 They surrounded Benjamin they pursued him rest they trod down him to opposite Gibeah from [the] rising of [the] sun.
de omringede Benjaminiterne og forfulgte dem, til de havde Geba foran sig mod Øst.
