וְכִֽי-תָבֹאוּ מִלְחָמָה בְּאַרְצְכֶם עַל-הַצַּר הַצֹּרֵר אֶתְכֶם וַהֲרֵֽעֹתֶם בַּחֲצֹֽצְרֹת וֲנִזְכַּרְתֶּם לִפְנֵי יְהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶם וְנֽוֹשַׁעְתֶּם מֵאֹֽיְבֵיכֶֽם׃
And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
וְרָאָה אֶת-הַחֶרֶב בָּאָה עַל-הָאָרֶץ וְתָקַע בַּשּׁוֹפָר וְהִזְהִיר אֶת-הָעָֽם׃
If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;
מֵעַי׀ מֵעַי׀ (אחולה) אוֹחִילָה קִירוֹת לִבִּי הֹֽמֶה-לִּי לִבִּי לֹא אַחֲרִשׁ כִּי קוֹל שׁוֹפָר (שמעתי) שָׁמַעַתְּ נַפְשִׁי תְּרוּעַת מִלְחָמָֽה׃
My bowels, my bowels! I am pained at my very heart; my heart maketh a noise in me; I cannot hold my peace, because thou hast heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war.
אִם-יִתָּקַע שׁוֹפָר בְּעִיר וְעָם לֹא יֶחֱרָדוּ אִם-תִּהְיֶה רָעָה בְּעִיר וַיהוָה לֹא עָשָֽׂה׃
Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
וְהַבּוֹנִים אִישׁ חַרְבּוֹ אֲסוּרִים עַל-מָתְנָיו וּבוֹנִים וְהַתּוֹקֵעַ בַּשּׁוֹפָר אֶצְלִֽי׃
For the builders, every one had his sword girded by his side, and so builded. And he that sounded the trumpet was by me.
וְהָיָה׀ בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא יִתָּקַע בְּשׁוֹפָר גָּדוֹל וּבָאוּ הָאֹֽבְדִים בְּאֶרֶץ אַשּׁוּר וְהַנִּדָּחִים בְּאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם וְהִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לַיהוָה בְּהַר הַקֹּדֶשׁ בִּירוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem.
תִּקְעוּ שׁוֹפָר בְּצִיּוֹן וְהָרִיעוּ בְּהַר קָדְשִׁי יִרְגְּזוּ כֹּל יֹשְׁבֵי הָאָרֶץ כִּֽי-בָא יוֹם-יְהוָה כִּי קָרֽוֹב׃
Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
בְּרַעַשׁ וְרֹגֶז יְגַמֶּא-אָרֶץ וְלֹֽא-יַאֲמִין כִּי-קוֹל שׁוֹפָֽר׃
He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that it is the sound of the trumpet.
וַיַּחַץ אֶת-שְׁלֹשׁ-מֵאוֹת הָאִישׁ שְׁלֹשָׁה רָאשִׁים וַיִּתֵּן שֽׁוֹפָרוֹת בְּיַד-כֻּלָּם וְכַדִּים רֵיקִים וְלַפִּדִים בְּתוֹךְ הַכַּדִּֽים׃
And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet in every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers.
ἐνδύσασθε τὴν πανοπλίαν τοῦ θεοῦ πρὸς τὸ δύνασθαι ὑμᾶς στῆναι πρὸς τὰς μεθοδείας τοῦ διαβόλου·
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
וְשִׁבְעָה כֹֽהֲנִים יִשְׂאוּ שִׁבְעָה שֽׁוֹפְרוֹת הַיּֽוֹבְלִים לִפְנֵי הָֽאָרוֹן וּבַיּוֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִי תָּסֹבּוּ אֶת-הָעִיר שֶׁבַע פְּעָמִים וְהַכֹּהֲנִים יִתְקְעוּ בַּשּֽׁוֹפָרֽוֹת׃
And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.
