1. וַיָּבֹאוּ אַנְשֵׁי ׀ קִרְיַת יְעָרִים וַיַּעֲלוּ אֶת־אֲרֹון יְהוָה וַיָּבִאוּ אֹתֹו אֶל־בֵּית אֲבִינָדָב בַּגִּבְעָה וְאֶת־אֶלְעָזָר בְּנֹו קִדְּשׁוּ לִשְׁמֹר אֶת־אֲרֹון יְהוָה׃ פ
|
1. And the men H376 of Kirjath H7157 -jearim came H935 , and fetched up H5927 H853 the ark H727 of the LORD H3068 , and brought H935 it into H413 the house H1004 of Abinadab H41 in the hill H1389 , and sanctified H6942 Eleazar H499 his son H1121 to keep H8104 H853 the ark H727 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
2. וַיְהִי מִיֹּום שֶׁבֶת הָאָרֹון בְּקִרְיַת יְעָרִים וַיִּרְבּוּ הַיָּמִים וַיִּהְיוּ עֶשְׂרִים שָׁנָה וַיִּנָּהוּ כָּל־בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל אַחֲרֵי יְהוָה׃ ס
|
2. And it came to pass H1961 , while H4480 H3117 the ark H727 abode H3427 in Kirjath H7157 -jearim , that the time H3117 was long H7235 ; for it was H1961 twenty H6242 years H8141 : and all H3605 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 lamented H5091 after H310 the LORD H3068 .
|
|
3. וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל־כָּל־בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל לֵאמֹר אִם־בְּכָל־לְבַבְכֶם אַתֶּם שָׁבִים אֶל־יְהוָה הָסִירוּ אֶת־אֱלֹהֵי הַנֵּכָר מִתֹּוכְכֶם וְהָעַשְׁתָּרֹות וְהָכִינוּ לְבַבְכֶם אֶל־יְהוָה וְעִבְדֻהוּ לְבַדֹּו וְיַצֵּל אֶתְכֶם מִיַּד פְּלִשְׁתִּים׃
|
3. And Samuel H8050 spoke H559 unto H413 all H3605 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 , saying H559 , If H518 ye H859 do return H7725 unto H413 the LORD H3068 with all H3605 your hearts H3824 , then put away H5493 H853 the strange H5236 gods H430 and Ashtaroth H6252 from among H4480 H8432 you , and prepare H3559 your hearts H3824 unto H413 the LORD H3068 , and serve H5647 him only H905 : and he will deliver H5337 you out of the hand H4480 H3027 of the Philistines H6430 .
|
|
4. וַיָּסִירוּ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת־הַבְּעָלִים וְאֶת־הָעַשְׁתָּרֹת וַיַּעַבְדוּ אֶת־יְהוָה לְבַדֹּו׃ פ
|
4. Then the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did put away H5493 H853 Baalim H1168 and Ashtaroth H6252 , and served H5647 H853 the LORD H3068 only H905 .
|
|
5. וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל קִבְצוּ אֶת־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵל הַמִּצְפָּתָה וְאֶתְפַּלֵּל בַּעַדְכֶם אֶל־יְהוָה׃
|
5. And Samuel H8050 said H559 , Gather H6908 H853 all H3605 Israel H3478 to Mizpeh H4709 , and I will pray H6419 for H1157 you unto H413 the LORD H3068 .
|
|
6. וַיִּקָּבְצוּ הַמִּצְפָּתָה וַיִּשְׁאֲבוּ־מַיִם וַיִּשְׁפְּכוּ ׀ לִפְנֵי יְהוָה וַיָּצוּמוּ בַּיֹּום הַהוּא וַיֹּאמְרוּ שָׁם חָטָאנוּ לַיהוָה וַיִּשְׁפֹּט שְׁמוּאֵל אֶת־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל בַּמִּצְפָּה׃
|
6. And they gathered together H6908 to Mizpeh H4709 , and drew H7579 water H4325 , and poured it out H8210 before H6440 the LORD H3068 , and fasted H6684 on that H1931 day H3117 , and said H559 there H8033 , We have sinned H2398 against the LORD H3068 . And Samuel H8050 judged H8199 H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 in Mizpeh H4709 .
|
|
7. וַיִּשְׁמְעוּ פְלִשְׁתִּים כִּי־הִתְקַבְּצוּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל הַמִּצְפָּתָה וַיַּעֲלוּ סַרְנֵי־פְלִשְׁתִּים אֶל־יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּשְׁמְעוּ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּרְאוּ מִפְּנֵי פְלִשְׁתִּים׃
|
7. And when the Philistines H6430 heard H8085 that H3588 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 were gathered together H6908 to Mizpeh H4709 , the lords H5633 of the Philistines H6430 went up H5927 against H413 Israel H3478 . And when the children H1121 of Israel H3478 heard H8085 it , they were afraid H3372 of H4480 H6440 the Philistines H6430 .
|
|
8. וַיֹּאמְרוּ בְנֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל־שְׁמוּאֵל אַל־תַּחֲרֵשׁ מִמֶּנּוּ מִזְּעֹק אֶל־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְיֹשִׁעֵנוּ מִיַּד פְּלִשְׁתִּים׃
|
8. And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 said H559 to H413 Samuel H8050 , Cease H2790 not H408 to cry H4480 H2199 unto H413 the LORD H3068 our God H430 for H4480 us , that he will save H3467 us out of the hand H4480 H3027 of the Philistines H6430 .
|
|
9. וַיִּקַּח שְׁמוּאֵל טְלֵה חָלָב אֶחָד וַיַּעֲלֶה כ (וַיַּעֲלֵהוּ ק) עֹולָה כָּלִיל לַיהוָה וַיִּזְעַק שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל־יְהוָה בְּעַד יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיַּעֲנֵהוּ יְהוָה׃
|
9. And Samuel H8050 took H3947 a H259 sucking H2461 lamb H2924 , and offered H5927 it for a burnt offering H5930 wholly H3632 unto the LORD H3068 : and Samuel H8050 cried H2199 unto H413 the LORD H3068 for H1157 Israel H3478 ; and the LORD H3068 heard H6030 him.
|
|
10. וַיְהִי שְׁמוּאֵל מַעֲלֶה הָעֹולָה וּפְלִשְׁתִּים נִגְּשׁוּ לַמִּלְחָמָה בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל וַיַּרְעֵם יְהוָה ׀ בְּקֹול־גָּדֹול בַּיֹּום הַהוּא עַל־פְּלִשְׁתִּים וַיְהֻמֵּם וַיִּנָּגְפוּ לִפְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל׃
|
10. And as Samuel H8050 was H1961 offering up H5927 the burnt offering H5930 , the Philistines H6430 drew near H5066 to battle H4421 against Israel H3478 : but the LORD H3068 thundered H7481 with a great H1419 thunder H6963 on that H1931 day H3117 upon H5921 the Philistines H6430 , and discomfited H2000 them ; and they were smitten H5062 before H6440 Israel H3478 .
|
|
11. וַיֵּצְאוּ אַנְשֵׁי יִשְׂרָאֵל מִן־הַמִּצְפָּה וַיִּרְדְּפוּ אֶת־פְּלִשְׁתִּים וַיַּכּוּם עַד־מִתַּחַת לְבֵית כָּר׃
|
11. And the men H376 of Israel H3478 went out H3318 of H4480 Mizpeh H4709 , and pursued H7291 H853 the Philistines H6430 , and smote H5221 them, until H5704 they came under H4480 H8478 Beth H1033 -car.
|
|
12. וַיִּקַּח שְׁמוּאֵל אֶבֶן אַחַת וַיָּשֶׂם בֵּין־הַמִּצְפָּה וּבֵין הַשֵּׁן וַיִּקְרָא אֶת־שְׁמָהּ אֶבֶן הָעָזֶר וַיֹּאמַר עַד־הֵנָּה עֲזָרָנוּ יְהוָה׃
|
12. Then Samuel H8050 took H3947 a H259 stone H68 , and set H7760 it between H996 Mizpeh H4709 and Shen H8129 , and called H7121 H853 the name H8034 of it Ebenezer H72 , saying H559 , Hitherto H5704 H2009 hath the LORD H3068 helped H5826 us.
|
|
13. וַיִּכָּנְעוּ הַפְּלִשְׁתִּים וְלֹא־יָסְפוּ עֹוד לָבֹוא בִּגְבוּל יִשְׂרָאֵל וַתְּהִי יַד־יְהוָה בַּפְּלִשְׁתִּים כֹּל יְמֵי שְׁמוּאֵל׃
|
13. So the Philistines H6430 were subdued H3665 , and they came H935 no H3808 more H3254 H5750 into the coast H1366 of Israel H3478 : and the hand H3027 of the LORD H3068 was H1961 against the Philistines H6430 all H3605 the days H3117 of Samuel H8050 .
|
|
14. וַתָּשֹׁבְנָה הֶעָרִים אֲשֶׁר לָקְחוּ־פְלִשְׁתִּים מֵאֵת יִשְׂרָאֵל ׀ לְיִשְׂרָאֵל מֵעֶקְרֹון וְעַד־גַּת וְאֶת־גְּבוּלָן הִצִּיל יִשְׂרָאֵל מִיַּד פְּלִשְׁתִּים וַיְהִי שָׁלֹום בֵּין יִשְׂרָאֵל וּבֵין הָאֱמֹרִי׃
|
14. And the cities H5892 which H834 the Philistines H6430 had taken H3947 from H4480 H854 Israel H3478 were restored H7725 to Israel H3478 , from Ekron H4480 H6138 even unto H5704 Gath H1661 ; and the coasts H1366 thereof did Israel H3478 deliver H5337 out of the hands H4480 H3027 of the Philistines H6430 . And there was H1961 peace H7965 between H996 Israel H3478 and the Amorites H567 .
|
|
15. וַיִּשְׁפֹּט שְׁמוּאֵל אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל כֹּל יְמֵי חַיָּיו׃
|
15. And Samuel H8050 judged H8199 H853 Israel H3478 all H3605 the days H3117 of his life H2416 .
|
|
16. וְהָלַךְ מִדֵּי שָׁנָה בְּשָׁנָה וְסָבַב בֵּית־אֵל וְהַגִּלְגָּל וְהַמִּצְפָּה וְשָׁפַט אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל אֵת כָּל־הַמְּקֹומֹות הָאֵלֶּה׃
|
16. And he went H1980 from H4880 H1767 year H8141 to year H8141 in circuit H5437 to Bethel H1008 , and Gilgal H1537 , and Mizpeh H4709 , and judged H8199 H853 Israel H3478 in H854 all H3605 those H428 places H4725 .
|
|
17. וּתְשֻׁבָתֹו הָרָמָתָה כִּי־שָׁם בֵּיתֹו וְשָׁם שָׁפָט אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּבֶן־שָׁם מִזְבֵּחַ לַיהוָה׃ פ
|
17. And his return H8666 was to Ramah H7414 ; for H3588 there H8033 was his house H1004 ; and there H8033 he judged H8199 H853 Israel H3478 ; and there H8033 he built H1129 an altar H4196 unto the LORD H3068 .
