Shophetim (Judges) 7:15-22

Shophetim (Judges) 7:15-22 TS2009

And it came to be, when Giḏ‛on heard this dream related, and its interpretation, that he bowed himself down. And he returned to the camp of Yisra’ĕl, and said, “Arise, for יהוה has given the camp of Miḏyan into your hand.” And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put shopharot into the hands of all of them, with empty jars, and torches inside the jars. And he said to them, “Watch me and do likewise. And see, when I come to the edge of the camp do as I do. “And I shall blow with the shophar, I and all those with me, then you shall also blow with the shopharot round about all the camp, and say, ‘For יהוה and for Giḏ‛on!’ ” And Giḏ‛on and the hundred men who were with him came to the edge of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, as they had but newly posted the watch. And they blew with the shopharot and broke the jars that were in their hands. And the three companies blew with the shopharot and broke the jars, and held the torches in their left hands and the shopharot in their right hands for blowing. And they cried, “A sword for יהוה and for Giḏ‛on!” And each stood in his place, round about the camp. And all the army ran and cried out and fled, and the three hundred blew the shopharot, and יהוה set the sword of each one against the other throughout all the camp. And the army fled to Bĕyth Shittah, toward Tserĕrah, as far as the border of Aḇĕl Meḥolah, by Tabbath.
