1. וְאֵלֶּה הַגּוֹיִם אֲשֶׁר הִנִּיחַ יְהוָה לְנַסּוֹת בָּם אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֵת כָּל־אֲשֶׁר לֹא־יָדְעוּ אֵת כָּל־מִלְחֲמוֹת כְּנָעַן ׃
|
1. Now these H428 are the nations H1471 which H834 the LORD H3068 left H5117 , to prove H5254 H853 Israel H3478 by them, even H853 as many H3605 H834 of Israel as had not H3808 known H3045 H853 all H3605 the wars H4421 of Canaan H3667 ;
|
|
2. רַק לְמַעַן דַּעַת דֹּרוֹת בְּנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל לְלַמְּדָם מִלְחָמָה רַק אֲשֶׁר־לְפָנִים לֹא יְדָעוּם ׃
|
2. Only H7535 that H4616 the generations H1755 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 might know H3045 , to teach H3925 them war H4421 , at the least H7535 such as H834 before H6440 knew H3045 nothing H3808 thereof;
|
|
3. חֲמֵשֶׁת סַרְנֵי פְלִשְׁתִּים וְכָל־הַכְּנַעֲנִי וְהַצִּידֹנִי וְהַחִוִּי יֹשֵׁב הַר הַלְּבָנוֹן מֵהַר בַּעַל חֶרְמוֹן עַד לְבוֹא חֲמָת ׃
|
3. Namely , five H2568 lords H5633 of the Philistines H6430 , and all H3605 the Canaanites H3669 , and the Sidonians H6722 , and the Hivites H2340 that dwelt H3427 in mount H2022 Lebanon H3844 , from mount H4480 H2022 Baal H1179 -hermon unto H5704 the entering in H935 of Hamath H2574 .
|
|
4. וַיִּהְיוּ לְנַסּוֹת בָּם אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל לָדַעַת הֲיִשְׁמְעוּ אֶת־מִצְוֹת יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּה אֶת־אֲבוֹתָם בְּיַד־מֹשֶׁה ׃
|
4. And they were H1961 to prove H5254 H853 Israel H3478 by them , to know H3045 whether they would hearken H8085 unto H853 the commandments H4687 of the LORD H3068 , which H834 he commanded H6680 H853 their fathers H1 by the hand H3027 of Moses H4872 .
|
|
5. וּבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל יָשְׁבוּ בְּקֶרֶב הַכְּנַעֲנִי הַחִתִּי וְהָאֱמֹרִי וְהַפְּרִזִּי וְהַחִוִּי וְהַיְבוּסִי ׃
|
5. And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 dwelt H3427 among H7130 the Canaanites H3669 , Hittites H2850 , and Amorites H567 , and Perizzites H6522 , and Hivites H2340 , and Jebusites H2983 :
|
|
6. וַיִּקְחוּ אֶת־בְּנוֹתֵיהֶם לָהֶם לְנָשִׁים וְאֶת־בְּנוֹתֵיהֶם נָתְנוּ לִבְנֵיהֶם וַיַּעַבְדוּ אֶת־אֱלֹהֵיהֶם ׃ פ
|
6. And they took H3947 H853 their daughters H1323 to be their wives H802 , and gave H5414 their daughters H1323 to their sons H1121 , and served H5647 H853 their gods H430 .
|
|
7. וַיַּעֲשׂוּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת־הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה וַיִּשְׁכְּחוּ אֶת־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵיהֶם וַיַּעַבְדוּ אֶת־הַבְּעָלִים וְאֶת־הָאֲשֵׁרוֹת ׃
|
7. And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did H6213 H853 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 , and forgot H7911 H853 the LORD H3068 their God H430 , and served H5647 H853 Baalim H1168 and the groves H842 .
|
|
8. וַיִּחַר־אַף יְהוָה בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּמְכְּרֵם בְּיַד כּוּשַׁן רִשְׁעָתַיִם מֶלֶךְ אֲרַם נַהֲרָיִם וַיַּעַבְדוּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת־כּוּשַׁן רִשְׁעָתַיִם שְׁמֹנֶה שָׁנִים ׃
|
8. Therefore the anger H639 of the LORD H3068 was hot H2734 against Israel H3478 , and he sold H4376 them into the hand H3027 of Cushan H3573 -rishathaim king H4428 of Mesopotamia H763 : and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 served H5647 H853 Cushan H3573 -rishathaim eight H8083 years H8141 .
|
|
9. וַיִּזְעֲקוּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל־יְהוָה וַיָּקֶם יְהוָה מוֹשִׁיעַ לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיּוֹשִׁיעֵם אֵת עָתְנִיאֵל בֶּן־קְנַז אֲחִי כָלֵב הַקָּטֹן מִמֶּנּוּ ׃
|
9. And when the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cried H2199 unto H413 the LORD H3068 , the LORD H3068 raised up H6965 a deliverer H3467 to the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , who delivered H3467 them, even H853 Othniel H6274 the son H1121 of Kenaz H7073 , Caleb H3612 's younger H6996 brother H251 .
|
|
10. וַתְּהִי עָלָיו רוּחַ־יְהוָה וַיִּשְׁפֹּט אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיֵּצֵא לַמִּלְחָמָה וַיִּתֵּן יְהוָה בְּיָדוֹ אֶת־כּוּשַׁן רִשְׁעָתַיִם מֶלֶךְ אֲרָם וַתָּעָז יָדוֹ עַל כּוּשַׁן רִשְׁעָתָיִם ׃
|
10. And the Spirit H7307 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 upon H5921 him , and he judged H8199 H853 Israel H3478 , and went out H3318 to war H4421 : and the LORD H3068 delivered H5414 H853 Cushan H3573 -rishathaim king H4428 of Mesopotamia H763 into his hand H3027 ; and his hand H3027 prevailed H5810 against H5921 Cushan H3573 -rishathaim.
|
|
11. וַתִּשְׁקֹט הָאָרֶץ אַרְבָּעִים שָׁנָה וַיָּמָת עָתְנִיאֵל בֶּן־קְנַז ׃ פ
|
11. And the land H776 had rest H8252 forty H705 years H8141 . And Othniel H6274 the son H1121 of Kenaz H7073 died H4191 .
|
|
12. וַיֹּסִפוּ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל לַעֲשׂוֹת הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה וַיְחַזֵּק יְהוָה אֶת־עֶגְלוֹן מֶלֶךְ־מוֹאָב עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵל עַל כִּי־עָשׂוּ אֶת־הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה ׃
|
12. And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did H6213 evil H7451 again H3254 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 : and the LORD H3068 strengthened H2388 H853 Eglon H5700 the king H4428 of Moab H4124 against H5921 Israel H3478 , because H5921 H3588 they had done H6213 H853 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
13. וַיֶּאֱסֹף אֵלָיו אֶת־בְּנֵי עַמּוֹן וַעֲמָלֵק וַיֵּלֶךְ וַיַּךְ אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּירְשׁוּ אֶת־עִיר הַתְּמָרִים ׃
|
13. And he gathered H622 unto H413 him H853 the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 and Amalek H6002 , and went H1980 and smote H5221 H853 Israel H3478 , and possessed H3423 H853 the city H5892 of palm trees H8558 .
|
|
14. וַיַּעַבְדוּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת־עֶגְלוֹן מֶלֶךְ־מוֹאָב שְׁמוֹנֶה עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָה ׃ ס
|
14. So the children H1121 of Israel H3478 served H5647 H853 Eglon H5700 the king H4428 of Moab H4124 eighteen H8083 H6240 years H8141 .
|
|
15. וַיִּזְעֲקוּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל־יְהוָה וַיָּקֶם יְהוָה לָהֶם מוֹשִׁיעַ אֶת־אֵהוּד בֶּן־גֵּרָא בֶּן־הַיְמִינִי אִישׁ אִטֵּר יַד־יְמִינוֹ וַיִּשְׁלְחוּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּיָדוֹ מִנְחָה לְעֶגְלוֹן מֶלֶךְ מוֹאָב ׃
|
15. But when the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cried H2199 unto H413 the LORD H3068 , the LORD H3068 raised them up H6965 a deliverer H3467 , H853 Ehud H261 the son H1121 of Gera H1617 , a Benjamite H1121 H1145 , a man H376 left H334 H3027 H3225 -handed : and by him H3027 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 sent H7971 a present H4503 unto Eglon H5700 the king H4428 of Moab H4124 .
|
|
16. וַיַּעַשׂ לוֹ אֵהוּד חֶרֶב וְלָהּ שְׁנֵי פֵיוֹת גֹּמֶד אָרְכָּהּ וַיַּחְגֹּר אוֹתָהּ מִתַּחַת לְמַדָּיו עַל יֶרֶךְ יְמִינוֹ ׃
|
16. But Ehud H261 made H6213 him a dagger H2719 which had two H8147 edges H6366 , of a cubit H1574 length H753 ; and he did gird H2296 it under H4480 H8478 his raiment H4055 upon H5921 his right H3225 thigh H3409 .
|
|
17. וַיַּקְרֵב אֶת־הַמִּנְחָה לְעֶגְלוֹן מֶלֶךְ מוֹאָב וְעֶגְלוֹן אִישׁ בָּרִיא מְאֹד ׃
|
17. And he brought H7126 H853 the present H4503 unto Eglon H5700 king H4428 of Moab H4124 : and Eglon H5700 was a very H3966 fat H1277 man H376 .
|
|
18. וַיְהִי כַּאֲשֶׁר כִּלָּה לְהַקְרִיב אֶת־הַמִּנְחָה וַיְשַׁלַּח אֶת־הָעָם נֹשְׂאֵי הַמִּנְחָה ׃
|
18. And when H834 he had made an end H3615 to offer H7126 H853 the present H4503 , he sent away H7971 H853 the people H5971 that bore H5375 the present H4503 .
|
|
19. וְהוּא שָׁב מִן־הַפְּסִילִים אֲשֶׁר אֶת־הַגִּלְגָּל וַיֹּאמֶר דְּבַר־סֵתֶר לִי אֵלֶיךָ הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֹּאמֶר הָס וַיֵּצְאוּ מֵעָלָיו כָּל־הָעֹמְדִים עָלָיו ׃
|
19. But he H1931 himself turned again H7725 from H4480 the quarries H6456 that H834 were by H854 Gilgal H1537 , and said H559 , I have a secret H5643 errand H1697 unto thee , O king H4428 : who said H559 , Keep silence H2013 . And all H3605 that stood H5975 by him went out H3318 from H4480 H5921 him.
|
|
20. וְאֵהוּד בָּא אֵלָיו וְהוּא־יֹשֵׁב בַּעֲלִיַּת הַמְּקֵרָה אֲשֶׁר־לוֹ לְבַדּוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר אֵהוּד דְּבַר־אֱלֹהִים לִי אֵלֶיךָ וַיָּקָם מֵעַל הַכִּסֵּא ׃
|
20. And Ehud H261 came H935 unto H413 him ; and he H1931 was sitting H3427 in a summer H4747 parlor H5944 , which H834 he had for himself alone H905 . And Ehud H261 said H559 , I have a message H1697 from God H430 unto H413 thee . And he arose H6965 out of H4480 H5921 his seat H3678 .
|
|
21. וַיִּשְׁלַח אֵהוּד אֶת־יַד שְׂמֹאלוֹ וַיִּקַּח אֶת־הַחֶרֶב מֵעַל יֶרֶךְ יְמִינוֹ וַיִּתְקָעֶהָ בְּבִטְנוֹ ׃
|
21. And Ehud H261 put forth H7971 H853 his left H8040 hand H3027 , and took H3947 H853 the dagger H2719 from H4480 H5921 his right H3225 thigh H3409 , and thrust H8628 it into his belly H990 :
|
|
22. וַיָּבֹא גַם־הַנִּצָּב אַחַר הַלַּהַב וַיִּסְגֹּר הַחֵלֶב בְּעַד הַלַּהַב כִּי לֹא שָׁלַף הַחֶרֶב מִבִּטְנוֹ וַיֵּצֵא הַפַּרְשְׁדֹנָה ׃
|
22. And the haft H5325 also H1571 went in H935 after H310 the blade H3851 ; and the fat H2459 closed H5462 upon H1157 the blade H3851 , so that H3588 he could not H3808 draw H8025 the dagger H2719 out of his belly H4480 H990 ; and the dirt H6574 came out H3318 .
|
|
23. וַיֵּצֵא אֵהוּד הַמִּסְדְּרוֹנָה וַיִּסְגֹּר דַּלְתוֹת הָעַלִיָּה בַּעֲדוֹ וְנָעָל ׃
|
23. Then Ehud H261 went forth H3318 through the porch H4528 , and shut H5462 the doors H1817 of the parlor H5944 upon him H1157 , and locked H5274 them.
|
|
24. וְהוּא יָצָא וַעֲבָדָיו בָּאוּ וַיִּרְאוּ וְהִנֵּה דַּלְתוֹת הָעֲלִיָּה נְעֻלוֹת וַיֹּאמְרוּ אַךְ מֵסִיךְ הוּא אֶת־רַגְלָיו בַּחֲדַר הַמְּקֵרָה ׃
|
24. When he H1931 was gone out H3318 , his servants H5650 came H935 ; and when they saw H7200 that, behold H2009 , the doors H1817 of the parlor H5944 were locked H5274 , they said H559 , Surely H389 he H1931 covereth H5526 H853 his feet H7272 in his summer H4747 chamber H2315 .
|
|
25. וַיָּחִילוּ עַד־בּוֹשׁ וְהִנֵּה אֵינֶנּוּ פֹתֵחַ דַּלְתוֹת הָעֲלִיָּה וַיִּקְחוּ אֶת־הַמַּפְתֵּחַ וַיִּפְתָּחוּ וְהִנֵּה אֲדֹנֵיהֶם נֹפֵל אַרְצָה מֵת ׃
|
25. And they tarried H2342 till H5704 they were ashamed H954 : and, behold H2009 , he opened H6605 not H369 the doors H1817 of the parlor H5944 ; therefore they took H3947 H853 a key H4668 , and opened H6605 them : and, behold H2009 , their lord H113 was fallen down H5307 dead H4191 on the earth H776 .
|
|
26. וְאֵהוּד נִמְלַט עַד הִתְמַהְמְהָם וְהוּא עָבַר אֶת־הַפְּסִילִים וַיִּמָּלֵט הַשְּׂעִירָתָה ׃
|
26. And Ehud H261 escaped H4422 while H5704 they tarried H4102 , and passed beyond H5674 H853 the quarries H6456 , and escaped H4422 unto Seirath H8167 .
|
|
27. וַיְהִי בְּבוֹאוֹ וַיִּתְקַע בַּשּׁוֹפָר בְּהַר אֶפְרָיִם וַיֵּרְדוּ עִמּוֹ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל מִן־הָהָר וְהוּא לִפְנֵיהֶם ׃
|
27. And it came to pass H1961 , when he was come H935 , that he blew H8628 a trumpet H7782 in the mountain H2022 of Ephraim H669 , and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 went down H3381 with H5973 him from H4480 the mount H2022 , and he H1931 before H6440 them.
|
|
28. וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵהֶם רִדְפוּ אַחֲרַי כִּי־נָתַן יְהוָה אֶת־אֹיְבֵיכֶם אֶת־מוֹאָב בְּיֶדְכֶם וַיֵּרְדוּ אַחֲרָיו וַיִּלְכְּדוּ אֶת־מַעְבְּרוֹת הַיַּרְדֵּן לְמוֹאָב וְלֹא־נָתְנוּ אִישׁ לַעֲבֹר ׃
|
28. And he said H559 unto H413 them, Follow H7291 after H310 me: for H3588 the LORD H3068 hath delivered H5414 H853 your enemies H341 H853 the Moabites H4124 into your hand H3027 . And they went down H3381 after H310 him , and took H3920 H853 the fords H4569 of Jordan H3383 toward Moab H4124 , and suffered H5414 not H3808 a man H376 to pass over H5674 .
|
|
29. וַיַּכּוּ אֶת־מוֹאָב בָּעֵת הַהִיא כַּעֲשֶׂרֶת אֲלָפִים אִישׁ כָּל־שָׁמֵן וְכָל־אִישׁ חָיִל וְלֹא נִמְלַט אִישׁ ׃
|
29. And they slew H5221 of H853 Moab H4124 at that H1931 time H6256 about ten H6235 thousand H505 men H376 , all H3605 lusty H8082 , and all H3605 men H376 of valor H2428 ; and there escaped H4422 not H3808 a man H376 .
|
|
30. וַתִּכָּנַע מוֹאָב בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא תַּחַת יַד יִשְׂרָאֵל וַתִּשְׁקֹט הָאָרֶץ שְׁמוֹנִים שָׁנָה ׃ ס
|
30. So Moab H4124 was subdued H3665 that H1931 day H3117 under H8478 the hand H3027 of Israel H3478 . And the land H776 had rest H8252 fourscore H8084 years H8141 .
|
|
31. וְאַחֲרָיו הָיָה שַׁמְגַּר בֶּן־עֲנָת וַיַּךְ אֶת־פְּלִשְׁתִּים שֵׁשׁ־מֵאוֹת אִישׁ בְּמַלְמַד הַבָּקָר וַיֹּשַׁע גַּם־הוּא אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל ׃ ס
|
31. And after H310 him was H1961 Shamgar H8044 the son H1121 of Anath H6067 , which slew H5221 of H853 the Philistines H6430 six H8337 hundred H3967 men H376 with an ox H1241 goad H4451 : and he H1931 also H1571 delivered H3467 H853 Israel H3478 .
