士6:1
Again the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the LORD, and for seven years he gave them into the hands of the Midianites.
以色列人又行耶和华眼中看为恶的事,耶和华就把他们交在米甸人手里七年。


士6:2
Because the power of Midian was so oppressive, the Israelites prepared shelters for themselves in mountain clefts, caves and strongholds.
米甸人压制以色列人,以色列人因为米甸人,就在山中挖穴挖洞,建造营寨。


士6:3
Whenever the Israelites planted their crops, the Midianites, Amalekites and other eastern peoples invaded the country.
以色列人每逢撒种之后,米甸人、亚玛力人和东方人都上来攻打他们,


士6:4
They camped on the land and ruined the crops all the way to Gaza and did not spare a living thing for Israel, neither sheep nor cattle nor donkeys.
对着他们安营,毁坏土产,直到迦萨,没有给以色列人留下食物,牛、羊、驴也没有留下。


士6:5
They came up with their livestock and their tents like swarms of locusts. It was impossible to count the men and their camels; they invaded the land to ravage it.
因为那些人带着牲畜帐棚来,像蝗虫那样多,人和骆驼无数,都进入国内,毁坏全地。


士6:6
Midian so impoverished the Israelites that they cried out to the LORD for help.
以色列人因米甸人的缘故,极其穷乏,就呼求耶和华。


士6:7
When the Israelites cried to the LORD because of Midian,
以色列人因米甸人的缘故,呼求耶和华,


士6:8
he sent them a prophet, who said, "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: I brought you up out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
耶和华就差遣先知到以色列人那里,对他们说:“耶和华以色列的 神如此说:'我曾领你们从埃及上来,出了为奴之家,


士6:9
I snatched you from the power of Egypt and from the hand of all your oppressors. I drove them from before you and gave you their land.
救你们脱离埃及人的手,并脱离一切欺压你们之人的手,把他们从你们面前赶出,将他们的地赐给你们。'


士6:10
I said to you,'I am the LORD your God; do not worship the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you live.' But you have not listened to me."
又对你们说:'我是耶和华你们的 神。你们住在亚摩利人的地,不可敬畏他们的 神。你们竟不听从我的话。'”


士6:11
The angel of the LORD came and sat down under the oak in Ophrah that belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, where his son Gideon was threshing wheat in a winepress to keep it from the Midianites.
耶和华的使者到了俄弗拉,坐在亚比以谢族人约阿施的橡树下。约阿施的儿子基甸正在酒榨那里打麦子,为要防备米甸人。


士6:12
When the angel of the LORD appeared to Gideon, he said, "The LORD is with you, mighty warrior."
耶和华的使者向基甸显现,对他说:“大能的勇士啊,耶和华与你同在!”


士6:13
"But sir," Gideon replied, "if the LORD is with us, why has all this happened to us? Where are all his wonders that our fathers told us about when they said,'Did not the LORD bring us up out of Egypt?' But now the LORD has abandoned us and put us into the hand of Midian."
基甸说:“主啊,耶和华若与我们同在,我们何至遭遇这一切事呢?我们的列祖不是向我们说'耶和华领我们从埃及上来'吗?他那样奇妙的作为在哪里呢?现在他却丢弃我们,将我们交在米甸人手里。”


士6:14
The LORD turned to him and said, "Go in the strength you have and save Israel out of Midian's hand. Am I not sending you?"
耶和华观看基甸说:“你靠着你这能力去从米甸人手里拯救以色列人,不是我差遣你去的吗?”


士6:15
"But Lord," Gideon asked, "how can I save Israel? My clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my family."
基甸说:“主啊,我有何能拯救以色列人呢?我家在玛拿西支派中是至贫穷的,我在我父家是至微小的。”


士6:16
The LORD answered, "I will be with you, and you will strike down all the Midianites together."
耶和华对他说:“我与你同在,你就必击打米甸人,如击打一人一样。”


士6:17
Gideon replied, "If now I have found favor in your eyes, give me a sign that it is really you talking to me.
基甸说:“我若在你眼前蒙恩,求你给我一个证据,使我知道与我说话的就是主。


士6:18
Please do not go away until I come back and bring my offering and set it before you." And the LORD said, "I will wait until you return."
求你不要离开这里,等我归回,将礼物带来供在你面前。”主说:“我必等你回来。”


士6:19
Gideon went in, prepared a young goat, and from an ephah of flour he made bread without yeast. Putting the meat in a basket and its broth in a pot, he brought them out and offered them to him under the oak.
基甸去预备了一只山羊羔,用一伊法细面做了无酵饼,将肉放在筐内,把汤盛在壶中,带到橡树下,献在使者面前。


士6:20
The angel of God said to him, "Take the meat and the unleavened bread, place them on this rock, and pour out the broth." And Gideon did so.
神的使者吩咐基甸说:“将肉和无酵饼放在这磐石上,把汤倒出来。”他就这样行了。


士6:21
With the tip of the staff that was in his hand, the angel of the LORD touched the meat and the unleavened bread. Fire flared from the rock, consuming the meat and the bread. And the angel of the LORD disappeared.
耶和华的使者伸出手内的杖,杖头挨了肉和无酵饼,就有火从磐石中出来,烧尽了肉和无酵饼。耶和华的使者也就不见了。


士6:22
When Gideon realized that it was the angel of the LORD, he exclaimed, "Ah, Sovereign LORD! I have seen the angel of the LORD face to face!"
基甸见他是耶和华的使者,就说:“哀哉!主耶和华啊,我不好了,因为我觌面看见耶和华的使者。”


士6:23
But the LORD said to him, "Peace! Do not be afraid. You are not going to die."
耶和华对他说:“你放心,不要惧怕,你必不至死!”


士6:24
So Gideon built an altar to the LORD there and called it The LORD is Peace. To this day it stands in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
于是,基甸在那里为耶和华筑了一座坛,起名叫“耶和华沙龙”(就是“耶和华赐平安”的意思)。这坛在亚比以谢族的俄弗拉,直到如今。


士6:25
That same night the LORD said to him, "Take the second bull from your father's herd, the one seven years old. Tear down your father's altar to Baal and cut down the Asherah pole beside it.
当那夜,耶和华吩咐基甸说:“你取你父亲的牛来,就是(或作“和”)那七岁的第二只牛,并拆毁你父亲为巴力所筑的坛,砍下坛旁的木偶。


士6:26
Then build a proper kind of altar to the LORD your God on the top of this height. Using the wood of the Asherah pole that you cut down, offer the second bull as a burnt offering."
在这磐石(原文作“保障”)上,整整齐齐地为耶和华你的 神筑一座坛,将第二只牛献为燔祭,用你所砍下的木偶作柴。”


士6:27
So Gideon took ten of his servants and did as the LORD told him. But because he was afraid of his family and the men of the town, he did it at night rather than in the daytime.
基甸就从他仆人中挑了十个人,照着耶和华吩咐他的行了。他因怕父家和本城的人,不敢在白昼行这事,就在夜间行了。


士6:28
In the morning when the men of the town got up, there was Baal's altar, demolished, with the Asherah pole beside it cut down and the second bull sacrificed on the newly built altar!
城里的人清早起来,见巴力的坛拆毁,坛旁的木偶砍下,第二只牛献在新筑的坛上,


士6:29
They asked each other, "Who did this?" When they carefully investigated, they were told, "Gideon son of Joash did it."
就彼此说:“这事是谁做的呢?”他们访查之后,就说:“这是约阿施的儿子基甸做的。”


士6:30
The men of the town demanded of Joash, "Bring out your son. He must die, because he has broken down Baal's altar and cut down the Asherah pole beside it."
城里的人对约阿施说:“将你儿子交出来,好治死他,因为他拆毁了巴力的坛,砍下坛旁的木偶。”


士6:31
But Joash replied to the hostile crowd around him, "Are you going to plead Baal's cause? Are you trying to save him? Whoever fights for him shall be put to death by morning! If Baal really is a god, he can defend himself when someone breaks down his altar."
约阿施回答站着攻击他的众人说:“你们是为巴力争论吗?你们要救他吗?谁为他争论,趁早将谁治死!巴力若果是 神,有人拆毁他的坛,让他为自己争论吧!”


士6:32
So that day they called Gideon "Jerub-Baal," saying, "Let Baal contend with him," because he broke down Baal's altar.
所以当日人称基甸为耶路巴力,意思说:“他拆毁巴力的坛,让巴力与他争论。”


士6:33
Now all the Midianites, Amalekites and other eastern peoples joined forces and crossed over the Jordan and camped in the Valley of Jezreel.
那时,米甸人、亚玛力人和东方人都聚集过河,在耶斯列平原安营。


士6:34
Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Gideon, and he blew a trumpet, summoning the Abiezrites to follow him.
耶和华的灵降在基甸身上,他就吹角,亚比以谢族都聚集跟随他;


士6:35
He sent messengers throughout Manasseh, calling them to arms, and also into Asher, Zebulun and Naphtali, so that they too went up to meet them.
他打发人走遍玛拿西地,玛拿西人也聚集跟随他;又打发人去见亚设人、西布伦人、拿弗他利人,他们也都出来与他们会合。


士6:36
Gideon said to God, "If you will save Israel by my hand as you have promised --
基甸对 神说:“你若果照着所说的话,借我手拯救以色列人,


士6:37
look, I will place a wool fleece on the threshing floor. If there is dew only on the fleece and all the ground is dry, then I will know that you will save Israel by my hand, as you said."
我就把一团羊毛放在禾场上。若单是羊毛上有露水,别的地方都是干的,我就知道你必照着所说的话,借我手拯救以色列人。”


士6:38
And that is what happened. Gideon rose early the next day; he squeezed the fleece and wrung out the dew -- a bowlful of water.
次日早晨,基甸起来,见果然是这样;将羊毛挤一挤,从羊毛中拧出满盆的露水来。


士6:39
Then Gideon said to God, "Do not be angry with me. Let me make just one more request. Allow me one more test with the fleece. This time make the fleece dry and the ground covered with dew."
基甸又对 神说:“求你不要向我发怒,我再说这一次:让我将羊毛再试一次。但愿羊毛是干的,别的地方都有露水。”


士6:40
That night God did so. Only the fleece was dry; all the ground was covered with dew.
这夜 神也如此行:独羊毛上是干的,别的地方都有露水。
