Judges 7
1 And he rose early Jerub-Baal that [is] Gideon and all the people which [was] with him and they encamped at En Harod and [the] camp of Midian it was of him from [the] north from [the] hill of Moreh in the valley.
耶魯巴耳即基德紅和所有跟隨他的民眾一早起身，在哈洛得泉安營；米德楊的營幕就在他們北面，在摩勒山腳的平原裏。
2 And he said Yahweh to Gideon [is too] numerous the people which [is] with you than to give I Midian in hand their lest it should glorify itself over me Israel saying hand my it has delivered me.
上主對基德紅說：「跟隨你的民眾太多，我不能把米德楊交在他們手中，免得以色列對我自誇說：是自己的能力救了自己。
3 And therefore proclaim please in [the] ears of the people saying who? [is] fearful and trembling let him go back and he may go from [the] mountain of Gilead and it returned of the people twenty and two thousand and ten thousand they remained.
現在你要向民眾宣告說：凡害怕恐懼的可以回去，急速離開這裏。」於是民眾中有二萬二千回去，只剩下一萬人。
4 And he said Yahweh to Gideon still the people [is] numerous bring down them to the water so I may test it for you there and it will be [the one] whom I will say to you this [one] - he will go with you he he will go with you and every [one] whom I will say to you this [one] not he will go with you he not he will go.
上主又對基德紅說：「民眾還是太多；領他們下到水邊去，我要在那裏為你檢驗他們。凡我告訴你說：這人可同你去，他就與你同去；凡我告訴你說：這人不可同你去，他就不可去。」
5 And he brought down the people to the water. And he said Yahweh to Gideon every [one] who he will lap up with tongue his some of the water just as it laps up the dog you will set him alone and every [one] who he will bow down on knees his to drink.
他就引民眾下到水邊；上主向基德紅說：「凡用舌頭舔水像狗舔水似的，將他們安置在一處；同樣，凡屈膝跪下飲水的，將他們安置在一處。」
6 And it was [the] number of those [who] lapped with hand their to mouth their three hundred man and all [the] remainder of the people they bowed down on knees their to drink water.
用手捧到嘴邊舔水的共有三百人；其餘民眾都是屈膝跪下喝水。
7 And he said Yahweh to Gideon by three hundred the man who lapped I will deliver you and I will give Midian in hand your and all the people let them go each to own place his.
上主對基德紅說：「我要用這三百舔水的人拯救你們，把米德楊交於你手中。讓其餘的民眾各回本地去。」
8 And they took provision[s] the people in hand their and trumpets their and every man of Israel he sent away each to tents his and on three hundred the man he kept hold and [the] camp of Midian it was to him from under in the valley.
基德紅便留下民眾的罐子和號角，打發眾以色列人各回自己的帳幕，只留下三百人。米德楊的營幕就在他們下面的平原裏。基德紅巧取米德楊營
9 And it was in the night that and he said to him Yahweh arise go down in the camp for I have given it in hand your.
當夜上主對他說：「起來，下去攻營! 我已將敵營交在你的手中了。
10 And if [are] afraid you to go down go down you and Purah servant your to the camp.
如果你一人害怕下去，可帶你的隨從普辣一起下到營幕，
11 And you will hear what? will they speak and after they will be strong hands your and you will go down in the camp and he went down he and Purah servant his to [the] edge of those arrayed for battle who [were] in the camp.
聽他們說什麼；以後你的手就會堅強，敢下去攻營了。」於是他和他的隨從普辣便下去，來到營中駐軍的前哨。
12 And Midian and Amalek and all [the] people of [the] east [were] lying in the valley like locust[s] for multitude and [belonged] to camels their not number like the sand that [is] on [the] shore of the sea for multitude.
那時米德楊、阿瑪肋克和東方的子民都散佈在平原裏，多如蝗蟲；他們的駱駝不可勝數，多如海邊的沙粒。
13 And he came Gideon and there! a man [was] recounting to neighbor his a dream and he said here! a dream I have dreamed and there! (a round loaf of *Q(K)*) bread of barley [was] tumbling in [the] camp of Midian and it came to the tent and it struck it and it fell and it overturned it upwards and it fell the tent.
基德紅來到時，正有一個人給他的同伴講夢說：「我作了一個夢：有一個大麥麵餅滾入米德楊營內，直滾向帳幕，將帳幕撞倒：翻轉朝上。」
14 And he answered neighbor his and he said not this [is] except [the] sword of Gideon [the] son of Joash a man of Israel he has given God in hand his Midian and all the army.
他的同伴回答說：「這不是別的，這是以色列人約阿士的兒子基德紅的刀劍；天主已把米德楊及其全營交於他手中。」
15 And it was when heard Gideon [the] recounting of the dream and interpretation its and he bowed down and he returned to [the] camp of Israel and he said arise for he has given Yahweh in hand your [the] camp of Midian.
基德紅一聽見這夢的敘述和解釋，就朝拜天主；然後回到以色列營中說：「起來! 因為上主已將米德楊的營幕交在你們手中了。」
16 And he divided three hundred the man three companies and he put trumpets in [the] hand of all of them and jars empty and torches in [the] midst of the jars.
他於是把三百人分作三隊，把號角和空罐子交在每人手中，把火把放在罐子裏；
17 And he said to them from me you will see and thus you will do and here! I [will be] coming in [the] edge of the camp and it will be just as I will do so you will do!
然後吩咐他們說：「你們看我怎樣行，你們便怎樣行；一到營幕邊上，我怎樣作，你們也要怎樣作。
18 And I will give a blast on the trumpet I and all who [are] with me and you will give a blast on the trumpets also you all around all the camp and you will say for Yahweh and for Gideon.
當我與跟隨我的人吹號角時，你們也應該在營幕四周吹號角，並且喊叫；為上主，為基德紅! 」
19 And he went Gideon and one hundred man who [were] with him in [the] edge of the camp [the] beginning of the watch middle just as certainly they had stationed the watchmen and they gave a blast on the trumpets and they smashed the jars which [were] in hand their.
在三更之初，當哨兵換防的時候，基德紅領著他那一百人來到營幕邊上，吹起號角來，打破手中的罐子。
20 And they gave a blast [the] three the companies on the trumpets and they broke the jars and they took hold in [the] hand of left their on the torches and in [the] hand of right their the trumpets to give a blast and they called out a sword for Yahweh and for Gideon.
同時三隊一齊吹號角，打破罐子，左手拿著火把，右手拿著號角吹，並喊叫說：「刀劍為上主，為基德紅! 」
21 And they stood everyone in place his round about the camp and it ran all the army and they shouted in distress (and they fled. *Q(K)*)
眾人都在營幕四周，各站在自己的地方。那時敵營驚醒，亂喊亂竄。
22 And they gave a blast [the] three hundred the trumpets and he set Yahweh [the] sword of each on neighbor his and on all the army and it fled the army to Beth Shittah towards Zererah to [the] border of Abel Meholah at Tabbath.
當那三百人吹號角的時候，上主使敵營互相撕殺。以後朝著責勒達逃往貝特史大，直到面對塔巴特的阿貝耳默曷拉。米德楊慘敗
23 And it was summoned [the] man of Israel from Naphtali and from Asher and from all Manasseh and they pursued after Midian.
那時以色列人從納斐塔里、阿協爾和默納協全地集合，追趕米德楊。
24 And messengers he sent Gideon in all [the] hill country of Ephraim saying come down to meet Midian and capture to them the waters to Beth Barah and the Jordan and he was summoned every man of Ephraim and they captured the waters to Beth Barah and the Jordan.
基德紅又打發使者到全厄弗辣因山地說：「請下來攻打米德楊人，在他們前佔據約但河的渡口，直到貝特巴辣。」全厄弗辣因人就集合，佔據了約但河的渡口，一直到貝特巴辣。
25 And they captured [the] two [the] commanders of Midian Oreb and Zeeb and they killed Oreb at [the] rock of Oreb and Zeeb they killed at [the] winepress of Zeeb and they pursued Midian and [the] head of Oreb and Zeeb they brought to Gideon from [the] other side of the Jordan.
他們捉住了米德楊的兩個領袖，即敖勒布和則厄布，在敖勒布石上把敖勒布殺死，在則厄布醡酒池裏把則厄布殺死；以後繼續追趕米德楊人，並把敖勒布和則厄布的頭送到約但對岸基德紅跟前。
