士師記 Judges

6:1	[hb5]	以色列人又行耶和華眼中看為惡的事．耶和華就把他們交在米甸人手裡七年。
	[kjv]	And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years.
	[bbe]	And the children of Israel did evil in the eyes of the Lord; and the Lord gave them up into the hand of Midian for seven years.
6:2	[hb5]	米甸人壓制以色列人、以色列人因為米甸人、就在山中挖穴、挖洞、建造營寨。
	[kjv]	And the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel: and because of the Midianites the children of Israel made them the dens which are in the mountains, and caves, and strong holds.
	[bbe]	And Midian was stronger than Israel; and because of the Midianites, the children of Israel made holes for themselves in the mountains, and hollows in the rocks, and strong places.
6:3	[hb5]	以色列人每逢撒種之後、米甸人、亞瑪力人、和東方人都上來攻打他們、
	[kjv]	And so it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east, even they came up against them;
	[bbe]	And whenever Israel's grain was planted, the Midianites and the Amalekites and the people of the east came up against them;
6:4	[hb5]	對著他們安營、毀壞土產、直到迦薩、沒有給以色列人留下食物．牛羊驢也沒有留下。
	[kjv]	And they encamped against them, and destroyed the increase of the earth, till thou come unto Gaza, and left no sustenance for Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass.
	[bbe]	And put their army in position against them; and they took all the produce of the earth as far as Gaza, till there was no food in Israel, or any sheep or oxen or asses.
6:5	[hb5]	因為那些人帶著牲畜帳棚來、像蝗蟲那樣多．人和駱駝無數、都進入國內、毀壞全地。
	[kjv]	For they came up with their cattle and their tents, and they came as grasshoppers for multitude; for both they and their camels were without number: and they entered into the land to destroy it.
	[bbe]	For they came up regularly with their oxen and their tents; they came like the locusts in number; they and their camels were without number; and they came into the land for its destruction.
6:6	[hb5]	以色列人因米甸人的緣故、極其窮乏、就呼求耶和華。
	[kjv]	And Israel was greatly impoverished because of the Midianites; and the children of Israel cried unto the LORD.
	[bbe]	And Israel was in great need because of Midian; and the cry of the children of Israel went up to the Lord.
6:7	[hb5]	以色列人因米甸人的緣故、呼求耶和華、
	[kjv]	And it came to pass, when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD because of the Midianites,
	[bbe]	And when the cry of the children of Israel, because of Midian, came before the Lord,
6:8	[hb5]	耶和華就差遣先知到以色列人那裡、對他們說、耶和華以色列的　神、如此說、我曾領你們從埃及上來、出了為奴之家．
	[kjv]	That the LORD sent a prophet unto the children of Israel, which said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I brought you up from Egypt, and brought you forth out of the house of bondage;
	[bbe]	The Lord sent a prophet to the children of Israel, who said to them, The Lord the God of Israel, has said, I took you up from Egypt, out of the prison-house;
6:9	[hb5]	救你們脫離埃及人的手、並脫離一切欺壓你們之人的手、把他們從你們面前趕出、將他們的地賜給你們．
	[kjv]	And I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all that oppressed you, and drave them out from before you, and gave you their land;
	[bbe]	And I took you out of the hands of the Egyptians and out of the hands of all who were cruel to you, and I sent them out by force from before you and gave you their land;
6:10	[hb5]	又對你們說、我是耶和華你們的　神．你們住在亞摩利人的地、不可敬畏他們的神．你們竟不聽從我的話。
	[kjv]	And I said unto you, I am the LORD your God; fear not the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but ye have not obeyed my voice.
	[bbe]	And I said to you, I am the Lord your God; you are not to give worship to the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living, but you did not give ear to my voice.
6:11	[hb5]	耶和華的使者到了俄弗拉、坐在亞比以謝族人約阿施的橡樹下。約阿施的兒子基甸正在酒醡那裡打麥子、為要防備米甸人。
	[kjv]	And there came an angel of the LORD, and sat under an oak which was in Ophrah, that pertained unto Joash the Abiezrite: and his son Gideon threshed wheat by the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites.
	[bbe]	Now the angel of the Lord came and took his seat under the oak-tree in Ophrah, in the field of Joash the Abiezrite; and his son Gideon was crushing grain in the place where the grapes were crushed, so that the Midianites might not see it.
6:12	[hb5]	耶和華的使者向基甸顯現、對他說、大能的勇士阿、耶和華與你同在。
	[kjv]	And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him, and said unto him, The LORD is with thee, thou mighty man of valour.
	[bbe]	And the angel of the Lord came before his eyes, and said to him, The Lord is with you, O man of war.
6:13	[hb5]	基甸說、主阿、耶和華若與我們同在、我們何至遭遇這一切事呢．我們的列祖不是向我們說、耶和華領我們從埃及上來麼．他那樣奇妙的作為在哪裡呢．現在他卻丟棄我們、將我們交在米甸人手裡。
	[kjv]	And Gideon said unto him, Oh my Lord, if the LORD be with us, why then is all this befallen us? and where be all his miracles which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt? but now the LORD hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites.
	[bbe]	Then Gideon said to him, O my lord, if the Lord is with us why has all this come on us? And where are all his works of power, of which our fathers have given us word, saying, Did not the Lord take us out of Egypt? But now he has given us up, handing us over to the power of Midian.
6:14	[hb5]	耶和華觀看基甸、說、你靠著你這能力去從米甸人手裡拯救以色列人．不是我差遣你去的麼。
	[kjv]	And the LORD looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee?
	[bbe]	And the Lord, turning to him, said, Go in the strength you have and be Israel's saviour from Midian: have I not sent you?
6:15	[hb5]	基甸說、主阿、我有何能拯救以色列人呢．我家在瑪拿西支派中、是至貧窮的．我在我父家是至微小的。
	[kjv]	And he said unto him, Oh my Lord, wherewith shall I save Israel? behold, my family is poor in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house.
	[bbe]	And he said to him, O Lord, how may I be the saviour of Israel? See, my family is the poorest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house.
6:16	[hb5]	耶和華對他說、我與你同在、你就必擊打米甸人、如擊打一人一樣。
	[kjv]	And the LORD said unto him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite the Midianites as one man.
	[bbe]	Then the Lord said to him, Truly, I will be with you, and you will overcome the Midianites as if they were one man.
6:17	[hb5]	基甸說、我若在你眼前蒙恩、求你給我一個證據、使我知道與我說話的就是主．
	[kjv]	And he said unto him, If now I have found grace in thy sight, then shew me a sign that thou talkest with me.
	[bbe]	So he said to him, If now I have grace in your eyes, then give me a sign that it is you who are talking to me.
6:18	[hb5]	求你不要離開這裡、等我歸回、將禮物帶來供在你面前．主說、我必等你回來。
	[kjv]	Depart not hence, I pray thee, until I come unto thee, and bring forth my present, and set it before thee. And he said, I will tarry until thou come again.
	[bbe]	Do not go away till I come with my offering and put it before you. And he said, I will not go away before you come back.
6:19	[hb5]	基甸去預備了一隻山羊羔、用一伊法細麵作了無酵餅、將肉放在筐內、把湯盛在壺中、帶到橡樹下、獻在使者面前。
	[kjv]	And Gideon went in, and made ready a kid, and unleavened cakes of an ephah of flour: the flesh he put in a basket, and he put the broth in a pot, and brought it out unto him under the oak, and presented it.
	[bbe]	Then Gideon went in and made ready a young goat, and with an ephah of meal he made unleavened cakes: he put the meat in a basket and the soup in which it had been cooked he put in a pot, and he took it out to him under the oak-tree and gave it to him there.
6:20	[hb5]	神的使者吩咐基甸說、將肉和無酵餅放在這磐石上、把湯倒出來．他就這樣行了。
	[kjv]	And the angel of God said unto him, Take the flesh and the unleavened cakes, and lay them upon this rock, and pour out the broth. And he did so.
	[bbe]	And the angel of God said to him, Take the meat and the unleavened cakes and put them down on the rock over there, draining out the soup over them. And he did so.
6:21	[hb5]	耶和華的使者伸出手內的杖、杖頭挨了肉和無酵餅、就有火從磐石中出來、燒盡了肉和無酵餅．耶和華的使者也就不見了。
	[kjv]	Then the angel of the LORD put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and there rose up fire out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened cakes. Then the angel of the LORD departed out of his sight.
	[bbe]	Then the angel of the Lord put out the stick which was in his hand, touching the meat and the cakes with the end of it; and a flame came up out of the rock, burning up the meat and the cakes: and the angel of the Lord was seen no longer.
6:22	[hb5]	基甸見他是耶和華的使者、就說、哀哉、主耶和華阿、我不好了、因為我覿面看見耶和華的使者。
	[kjv]	And when Gideon perceived that he was an angel of the LORD, Gideon said, Alas, O LORD God! for because I have seen an angel of the LORD face to face.
	[bbe]	Then Gideon was certain that he was the angel of the Lord; and Gideon said, I am in fear, O Lord God! for I have seen the angel of the Lord face to face.
6:23	[hb5]	耶和華對他說、你放心、不要懼怕、你必不至死。
	[kjv]	And the LORD said unto him, Peace be unto thee; fear not: thou shalt not die.
	[bbe]	But the Lord said to him, Peace be with you; have no fear: you are in no danger of death.
6:24	[hb5]	於是基甸在那裡為耶和華築了一座壇、起名叫耶和華沙龍〔就是耶和華賜平安的意思〕這壇在亞比以謝族的俄弗拉直到如今。
	[kjv]	Then Gideon built an altar there unto the LORD, and called it Jehovahshalom: unto this day it is yet in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
	[bbe]	Then Gideon made an altar there to the Lord, and gave it the name Yahweh-shalom; to this day it is in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
6:25	[hb5]	當那夜耶和華吩咐基甸說、你取你父親的牛來、就是〔或作和〕那七歲的第二隻牛、並拆毀你父親為巴力所築的壇、砍下壇旁的木偶。
	[kjv]	And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said unto him, Take thy father's young bullock, even the second bullock of seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal that thy father hath, and cut down the grove that is by it:
	[bbe]	The same night the Lord said to him, Take ten men of your servants and an ox seven years old, and after pulling down the altar of Baal which is your father's, and cutting down the holy tree by its side,
6:26	[hb5]	在這磐石〔原文作保障〕上、整整齊齊地為耶和華你的　神築一座壇、將第二隻牛獻為燔祭、用你所砍下的木偶作柴。
	[kjv]	And build an altar unto the LORD thy God upon the top of this rock, in the ordered place, and take the second bullock, and offer a burnt sacrifice with the wood of the grove which thou shalt cut down.
	[bbe]	Make an altar to the Lord your God on the top of this rock, in the ordered way and take the ox and make a burned offering with the wood of the holy tree which has been cut down.
6:27	[hb5]	基甸就從他僕人中挑了十個人、照著耶和華吩咐他的行了．他因怕父家和本城的人、不敢在白晝行這事、就在夜間行了。
	[kjv]	Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as the LORD had said unto him: and so it was, because he feared his father's household, and the men of the city, that he could not do it by day, that he did it by night.
	[bbe]	Then Gideon took ten of his servants and did as the Lord had said to him; but fearing to do it by day, because of his father's people and the men of the town, he did it by night.
6:28	[hb5]	城裡的人清早起來、見巴力的壇拆毀、壇旁的木偶砍下、第二隻牛獻在新築的壇上、
	[kjv]	And when the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was cast down, and the grove was cut down that was by it, and the second bullock was offered upon the altar that was built.
	[bbe]	And the men of the town got up early in the morning, and they saw the altar of Baal broken down, and the holy tree which was by it cut down, and the ox offered on the altar which had been put up there.
6:29	[hb5]	就彼此說、這事是誰作的呢．他們訪查之後、就說、這是約阿施的兒子基甸作的。
	[kjv]	And they said one to another, Who hath done this thing? And when they enquired and asked, they said, Gideon the son of Joash hath done this thing.
	[bbe]	And they said to one another, Who has done this thing? And after searching with care, they said, Gideon, the son of Joash, has done this thing.
6:30	[hb5]	城裡的人對約阿施說、將你兒子交出來、好治死他、因為他拆毀了巴力的壇、砍下壇旁的木偶。
	[kjv]	Then the men of the city said unto Joash, Bring out thy son, that he may die: because he hath cast down the altar of Baal, and because he hath cut down the grove that was by it.
	[bbe]	Then the men of the town said to Joash, Make your son come out to be put to death, for pulling down the altar of Baal and cutting down the holy tree which was by it.
6:31	[hb5]	約阿施回答站著攻擊他的眾人說、你們是為巴力爭論麼．你們要救他麼．誰為他爭論、趁早將誰治死．巴力若果是神、有人拆毀他的壇、讓他為自己爭論罷。
	[kjv]	And Joash said unto all that stood against him, Will ye plead for Baal? will ye save him? he that will plead for him, let him be put to death whilst it is yet morning: if he be a god, let him plead for himself, because one hath cast down his altar.
	[bbe]	But Joash said to all those who were attacking him, Will you take up the cause of Baal? will you be his saviour? Let anyone who will take up his cause be put to death while it is still morning: if he is a god, let him take up his cause himself because of the pulling down of his altar.
6:32	[hb5]	所以當日人稱基甸為耶路巴力、意思說、他拆毀巴力的壇、讓巴力與他爭論。
	[kjv]	Therefore on that day he called him Jerubbaal, saying, Let Baal plead against him, because he hath thrown down his altar.
	[bbe]	So that day he gave him the name of Jerubbaal, saying, Let Baal take up his cause against him because his altar has been broken down.
6:33	[hb5]	那時米甸人亞瑪力人和東方人、都聚集過河、在耶斯列平原安營。
	[kjv]	Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the children of the east were gathered together, and went over, and pitched in the valley of Jezreel.
	[bbe]	Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the people of the east, banding themselves together, went over and put up their tents in the valley of Jezreel.
6:34	[hb5]	耶和華的靈降在基甸身上、他就吹角．亞比以謝族都聚集跟隨他。
	[kjv]	But the Spirit of the LORD came upon Gideon, and he blew a trumpet; and Abiezer was gathered after him.
	[bbe]	But the spirit of the Lord came on Gideon; and at the sound of his horn all Abiezer came together after him.
6:35	[hb5]	他打發人走遍瑪拿西地、瑪拿西人也聚集跟隨他．又打發人去見亞設人、西布倫人、拿弗他利人他們也都出來與他們會合。
	[kjv]	And he sent messengers throughout all Manasseh; who also was gathered after him: and he sent messengers unto Asher, and unto Zebulun, and unto Naphtali; and they came up to meet them.
	[bbe]	And he sent through all Manasseh, and they came after him; and he sent to Asher and Zebulun and Naphtali, and they came up and were joined to the others.
6:36	[hb5]	基甸對　神說、你若果照著所說的話、藉我手拯救以色列人、
	[kjv]	And Gideon said unto God, If thou wilt save Israel by mine hand, as thou hast said,
	[bbe]	Then Gideon said to God, If you are going to give Israel salvation by my hand, as you have said,
6:37	[hb5]	我就把一團羊毛放在禾場上、若單是羊毛上有露水、別的地方都是乾的、我就知道你必照著所說的話、藉我手拯救以色列人。
	[kjv]	Behold, I will put a fleece of wool in the floor; and if the dew be on the fleece only, and it be dry upon all the earth beside, then shall I know that thou wilt save Israel by mine hand, as thou hast said.
	[bbe]	See, I will put the wool of a sheep on the grain-floor; if there is dew on the wool only, while all the earth is dry, then I will be certain that it is your purpose to give Israel salvation by my hand as you have said.
6:38	[hb5]	次日早晨基甸起來、見果然是這樣．將羊毛擠一擠、從羊毛中擰出滿盆的露水來。
	[kjv]	And it was so: for he rose up early on the morrow, and thrust the fleece together, and wringed the dew out of the fleece, a bowl full of water.
	[bbe]	And it was so: for he got up early on the morning after, and twisting the wool in his hands, he got a basin full of water from the dew on the wool.
6:39	[hb5]	基甸又對　神說、求你不要向我發怒、我再說這一次．讓我將羊毛再試一次．但願羊毛是乾的、別的地方都有露水。
	[kjv]	And Gideon said unto God, Let not thine anger be hot against me, and I will speak but this once: let me prove, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew.
	[bbe]	Then Gideon said to God, Do not be moved to wrath against me if I say only this: let me make one more test with the wool; let the wool now be dry, while the earth is covered with dew.
6:40	[hb5]	這夜　神也如此行．獨羊毛上是乾的、別的地方都有露水。
	[kjv]	And God did so that night: for it was dry upon the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground.
	[bbe]	And that night God did so; for the wool was dry, and there was dew on all the earth round it.
