Israel Oppressed by Midian
1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。2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。3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，4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；5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。6以色列人因米甸人的缘故，极其穷乏，就呼求耶和华。
1Then the sons of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD handed them over to Midian for seven years. 2The power of Midian prevailed against Israel. Because of Midian the sons of Israel made for themselves the dens which were in the mountains and the caves and the strongholds. 3For whenever Israel had sown, the Midianites would come up with the Amalekites and the people of the east and march against them. 4So they would camp against them and destroy the produce of the earth as far as Gaza, and leave no sustenance in Israel, nor a sheep, ox, or donkey. 5For they would come up with their livestock and their tents, they would come in like locusts in number, and both they and their camels were innumerable; and they came into the land to ruin it. 6So Israel was brought very low because of Midian, and the sons of Israel cried out to the LORD.
7以色列人因米甸人的缘故，呼求耶和华，8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，9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』；10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。』」
7Now it came about, when the sons of Israel cried out to the LORD on account of Midian, 8that the LORD sent a prophet to the sons of Israel, and he said to them, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel says: ‘It was I who brought you up from Egypt, and brought you out of the house of slavery. 9‘And I rescued you from the hands of the Egyptians, and from the hands of all your oppressors, and I drove them out from you and gave you their land, 10and I said to you, “I am the LORD your God; you shall not fear the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live.” But you have not obeyed Me.’”
Gideon Is Visited
11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。12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！」13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。」14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？」15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。」16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。」17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。18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。」
11Then the angel of the LORD came and sat under the oak that was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, as his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the wine press in order to save it from the Midianites. 12And the angel of the LORD appeared to him and said to him, “The LORD is with you, valiant warrior.” 13Then Gideon said to him, “O my lord, if the LORD is with us, why then has all this happened to us? And where are all His miracles which our fathers told us about, saying, ‘Did the LORD not bring us up from Egypt?’ But now the LORD has abandoned us and handed us over to Midian.” 14And the LORD looked at him and said, “Go in this strength of yours and save Israel from the hand of Midian. Have I not sent you?” 15But he said to Him, “O Lord, how am I to save Israel? Behold, my family is the least in Manasseh, and I am the youngest in my father’s house.” 16Yet the LORD said to him, “I will certainly be with you, and you will defeat Midian as one man.” 17So Gideon said to Him, “If now I have found favor in Your sight, then perform for me a sign that it is You speaking with me. 18“Please do not depart from here until I come back to You, and bring out my offering and lay it before You.” And He said, “I will remain until you return.”
19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。20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。21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。22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。」23耶和华对他说：「你放心，不要惧怕，你必不至死。」24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。）
19Then Gideon went in and prepared a young goat and unleavened bread from an ephah of flour; he put the meat in a basket and the broth in a pot, and brought them out to him under the oak and presented them. 20And the angel of God said to him, “Take the meat and the unleavened bread and lay them on this rock, and pour out the broth.” And he did so. 21Then the angel of the LORD put out the end of the staff that was in his hand and touched the meat and the unleavened bread; and fire came up from the rock and consumed the meat and the unleavened bread. Then the angel of the LORD vanished from his sight. 22When Gideon perceived that he was the angel of the LORD, he said, “Oh, Lord GOD! For I have seen the angel of the LORD face to face!” 23But the LORD said to him, “Peace to you, do not be afraid; you shall not die.” 24Then Gideon built an altar there to the LORD and named it The LORD is Peace. To this day it is still in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
25当那夜，耶和华吩咐基甸说：「你取你父亲的牛来，就是或译：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，26在这磐石原文是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。」27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。
25Now on the same night the LORD said to him, “Take your father’s bull and a second bull seven years old, and tear down the altar of Baal which belongs to your father, and cut down the Asherah that is beside it; 26and build an altar to the LORD your God on the top of this stronghold in an orderly way, and take a second bull and offer a burnt offering with the wood of the Asherah which you shall cut down.” 27Then Gideon took ten men from his servants and did as the LORD had spoken to him; and because he was too afraid of his father’s household and the men of the city to do it by day, he did it by night.
The Altar of Baal Destroyed
28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，29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。」30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。」31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！」32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。」
28When the people of the city got up early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal had been torn down, and the Asherah which had been beside it had been cut down, and the second bull had been offered on the altar which had been built. 29So they said to one another, “Who did this thing?” And when they searched and inquired, they said, “Gideon the son of Joash did this thing.” 30Then the men of the city said to Joash, “Bring out your son, that he may die, for he has torn down the altar of Baal, and indeed, he has cut down the Asherah which was beside it.” 31But Joash said to all who stood against him, “Will you contend for Baal, or will you save him? Whoever will contend for him shall be put to death by morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself, since someone has torn down his altar!” 32Therefore on that day he named Gideon Jerubbaal, that is to say, “Let Baal contend against him,” because he had torn down his altar.
33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。34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。35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。
33Then all the Midianites, the Amalekites, and the people of the east assembled together; and they crossed over and camped in the Valley of Jezreel. 34So the Spirit of the LORD covered Gideon like clothing; and he blew a trumpet, and the Abiezrites were called together to follow him. 35And he sent messengers throughout Manasseh, and they also were called together to follow him; and he sent messengers to Asher, Zebulun, and Naphtali, and they came up to meet them.
Sign of the Fleece
36基甸对神说：「你若果照着所说的话，借我手拯救以色列人，37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。」38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。39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。」40这夜神也如此行：独羊毛上是干的，别的地方都有露水。
36Then Gideon said to God, “If You are going to save Israel through me, as You have spoken, 37behold, I am putting a fleece of wool on the threshing floor. If there is dew on the fleece only, and it is dry on all the ground, then I will know that You will save Israel through me, as You have spoken.” 38And it was so. When he got up early the next morning and wrung out the fleece, he wrung the dew from the fleece, a bowl full of water. 39Then Gideon said to God, “Do not let Your anger burn against me, so that I may speak only one more time; please let me put You to the test only one more time with the fleece: let it now be dry only on the fleece, and let there be dew on all the ground.” 40And God did so that night; for it was dry only on the fleece, and dew was on all the ground.
