Verses 301–400 of 1902 (page 4 of 20)
וְאִם רַע בְּֽעֵינֵיכֶם לַֽעֲבֹד אֶת-יְהוָה בַּֽחֲרוּ לָכֶם הַיּוֹם אֶת-מִי תַֽעֲבֹדוּן אִם אֶת-אֱלֹהִים אֲשֶׁר-עָֽבְדוּ אֲבֽוֹתֵיכֶם אֲשֶׁר (בעבר) מֵעֵבֶר הַנָּהָר וְאִם אֶת-אֱלֹהֵי הָֽאֱמֹרִי אֲשֶׁר אַתֶּם יֹֽשְׁבִים בְּאַרְצָם וְאָֽנֹכִי וּבֵיתִי נַֽעֲבֹד אֶת-יְהוָֽה׃
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
כִּי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ הוּא הַמַּֽעֲלֶה אֹתָנוּ וְאֶת-אֲבוֹתֵינוּ מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם מִבֵּית עֲבָדִים וַֽאֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה לְעֵינֵינוּ אֶת-הָֽאֹתוֹת הַגְּדֹלוֹת הָאֵלֶּה וַֽיִּשְׁמְרֵנוּ בְּכָל-הַדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר הָלַכְנוּ בָהּ וּבְכֹל הָֽעַמִּים אֲשֶׁר עָבַרְנוּ בְּקִרְבָּֽם׃
For the LORD our God, he it is that brought up us and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and which did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way wherein we went, and among all the people through whom we passed:
וַיַּֽעֲלוּ בֵית-יוֹסֵף גַּם-הֵם בֵּֽית-אֵל וַֽיהוָה עִמָּֽם׃
And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Beth-el: and the LORD was with them.
וַיָּתִירוּ בֵית-יוֹסֵף בְּבֵֽית-אֵל וְשֵׁם-הָעִיר לְפָנִים לֽוּז׃
And the house of Joseph sent to descry Beth-el. (Now the name of the city before was Luz.)
וַיּוֹאֶל הָֽאֱמֹרִי לָשֶׁבֶת בְּהַר-חֶרֶס בְּאַיָּלוֹן וּבְשַֽׁעַלְבִים וַתִּכְבַּד יַד בֵּית-יוֹסֵף וַיִּֽהְיוּ לָמַֽס׃
But the Amorites would dwell in mount Heres in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim: yet the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, so that they became tributaries.
וְסִֽיסְרָא נָס בְּרַגְלָיו אֶל-אֹהֶל יָעֵל אֵשֶׁת חֶבֶר הַקֵּינִי כִּי שָׁלוֹם בֵּין יָבִין מֶֽלֶךְ-חָצוֹר וּבֵין בֵּית חֶבֶר הַקֵּינִֽי׃
Howbeit Sisera fled away on his feet to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite: for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.
וַיִּשְׁלַח יְהוָה אִישׁ נָבִיא אֶל-בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה׀ אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אָֽנֹכִי הֶֽעֱלֵיתִי אֶתְכֶם מִמִּצְרַיִם וָֽאֹצִיא אֶתְכֶם מִבֵּית עֲבָדִֽים׃
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;
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו בִּי אֲדֹנָי בַּמָּה אוֹשִׁיעַ אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל הִנֵּה אַלְפִּי הַדַּל בִּמְנַשֶּׁה וְאָֽנֹכִי הַצָּעִיר בְּבֵית אָבִֽי׃
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.
וַיִּקַּח גִּדְעוֹן עֲשָׂרָה אֲנָשִׁים מֵֽעֲבָדָיו וַיַּעַשׂ כַּֽאֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר אֵלָיו יְהוָה וַיְהִי כַּֽאֲשֶׁר יָרֵא אֶת-בֵּית אָבִיו וְאֶת-אַנְשֵׁי הָעִיר מֵֽעֲשׂוֹת יוֹמָם וַיַּעַשׂ לָֽיְלָה׃
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.
וַיַּעַשׂ אוֹתוֹ גִדְעוֹן לְאֵפוֹד וַיַּצֵּג אוֹתוֹ בְעִירוֹ בְּעָפְרָה וַיִּזְנוּ כָֽל-יִשְׂרָאֵל אַֽחֲרָיו שָׁם וַיְהִי לְגִדְעוֹן וּלְבֵיתוֹ לְמוֹקֵֽשׁ׃
And Gideon made an ephod thereof, and put it in his city, even in Ophrah: and all Israel went thither a whoring after it: which thing became a snare unto Gideon, and to his house.
וַיֵּלֶךְ יְרֻבַּעַל בֶּן-יוֹאָשׁ וַיֵּשֶׁב בְּבֵיתֽוֹ׃
And Jerubbaal the son of Joash went and dwelt in his own house.
וְלֹֽא-עָשׂוּ חֶסֶד עִם-בֵּית יְרֻבַּעַל גִּדְעוֹן כְּכָל-הַטּוֹבָה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה עִם-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Neither shewed they kindness to the house of Jerubbaal, namely, Gideon, according to all the goodness which he had shewed unto Israel.
וַיֵּלֶךְ אֲבִימֶלֶךְ בֶּן-יְרֻבַּעַל שְׁכֶמָה אֶל-אֲחֵי אִמּוֹ וַיְדַבֵּר אֲלֵיהֶם וְאֶל-כָּל-מִשְׁפַּחַת בֵּית-אֲבִי אִמּוֹ לֵאמֹֽר׃
And Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem unto his mother's brethren, and communed with them, and with all the family of the house of his mother's father, saying,
וַיִּתְּנוּ-לוֹ שִׁבְעִים כֶּסֶף מִבֵּית בַּעַל בְּרִית וַיִּשְׂכֹּר בָּהֶם אֲבִימֶלֶךְ אֲנָשִׁים רֵיקִים וּפֹחֲזִים וַיֵּֽלְכוּ אַֽחֲרָֽיו׃
And they gave him threescore and ten pieces of silver out of the house of Baal-berith, wherewith Abimelech hired vain and light persons, which followed him.
וַיָּבֹא בֵית-אָבִיו עָפְרָתָה וַֽיַּהֲרֹג אֶת-אֶחָיו בְּנֵֽי-יְרֻבַּעַל שִׁבְעִים אִישׁ עַל-אֶבֶן אֶחָת וַיִּוָּתֵר יוֹתָם בֶּן-יְרֻבַּעַל הַקָּטֹן כִּי נֶחְבָּֽא׃
And he went unto his father's house at Ophrah, and slew his brethren the sons of Jerubbaal, being threescore and ten persons, upon one stone: notwithstanding yet Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left; for he hid himself.
וַיֵּאָסְפוּ כָּל-בַּֽעֲלֵי שְׁכֶם וְכָל-בֵּית מִלּוֹא וַיֵּלְכוּ וַיַּמְלִיכוּ אֶת-אֲבִימֶלֶךְ לְמֶלֶךְ עִם-אֵלוֹן מֻצָּב אֲשֶׁר בִּשְׁכֶֽם׃
And all the men of Shechem gathered together, and all the house of Millo, and went, and made Abimelech king, by the plain of the pillar that was in Shechem.
וְעַתָּה אִם-בֶּֽאֱמֶת וּבְתָמִים עֲשִׂיתֶם וַתַּמְלִיכוּ אֶת-אֲבִימֶלֶךְ וְאִם-טוֹבָה עֲשִׂיתֶם עִם-יְרֻבַּעַל וְעִם-בֵּיתוֹ וְאִם-כִּגְמוּל יָדָיו עֲשִׂיתֶם לֽוֹ׃
Now therefore, if ye have done truly and sincerely, in that ye have made Abimelech king, and if ye have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done unto him according to the deserving of his hands;
וְאַתֶּם קַמְתֶּם עַל-בֵּית אָבִי הַיּוֹם וַתַּֽהַרְגוּ אֶת-בָּנָיו שִׁבְעִים אִישׁ עַל-אֶבֶן אֶחָת וַתַּמְלִיכוּ אֶת-אֲבִימֶלֶךְ בֶּן-אֲמָתוֹ עַל-בַּֽעֲלֵי שְׁכֶם כִּי אֲחִיכֶם הֽוּא׃
And ye are risen up against my father's house this day, and have slain his sons, threescore and ten persons, upon one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his maidservant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your brother;)
וְאִם-בֶּֽאֱמֶת וּבְתָמִים עֲשִׂיתֶם עִם-יְרֻבַּעַל וְעִם-בֵּיתוֹ הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה שִׂמְחוּ בַּֽאֲבִימֶלֶךְ וְיִשְׂמַח גַּם-הוּא בָּכֶֽם׃
If ye then have dealt truly and sincerely with Jerubbaal and with his house this day, then rejoice ye in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you:
וְאִם-אַיִן תֵּצֵא אֵשׁ מֵֽאֲבִימֶלֶךְ וְתֹאכַל אֶת-בַּֽעֲלֵי שְׁכֶם וְאֶת-בֵּית מִלּוֹא וְתֵצֵא אֵשׁ מִבַּֽעֲלֵי שְׁכֶם וּמִבֵּית מִלּוֹא וְתֹאכַל אֶת-אֲבִימֶֽלֶךְ׃
But if not, let fire come out from Abimelech, and devour the men of Shechem, and the house of Millo; and let fire come out from the men of Shechem, and from the house of Millo, and devour Abimelech.
וַיֵּֽצְאוּ הַשָּׂדֶה וַֽיִּבְצְרוּ אֶת-כַּרְמֵיהֶם וַֽיִּדְרְכוּ וַֽיַּעֲשׂוּ הִלּוּלִים וַיָּבֹאוּ בֵּית אֱֽלֹהֵיהֶם וַיֹּֽאכְלוּ וַיִּשְׁתּוּ וַֽיְקַלְלוּ אֶת-אֲבִימֶֽלֶךְ׃
And they went out into the fields, and gathered their vineyards, and trode the grapes, and made merry, and went into the house of their god, and did eat and drink, and cursed Abimelech.
וַֽיִּשְׁמְעוּ כָּֽל-בַּעֲלֵי מִֽגְדַּל-שְׁכֶם וַיָּבֹאוּ אֶל-צְרִיחַ בֵּית אֵל בְּרִֽית׃
And when all the men of the tower of Shechem heard that, they entered into an hold of the house of the god Berith.
וַיַּֽעַבְרוּ בְנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן אֶת-הַיַּרְדֵּן לְהִלָּחֵם גַּם-בִּֽיהוּדָה וּבְבִנְיָמִין וּבְבֵית אֶפְרָיִם וַתֵּצֶר לְיִשְׂרָאֵל מְאֹֽד׃
Moreover the children of Ammon passed over Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; so that Israel was sore distressed.
וַתֵּלֶד אֵֽשֶׁת-גִּלְעָד לוֹ בָּנִים וַיִּגְדְּלוּ בְֽנֵי-הָאִשָּׁה וַיְגָֽרְשׁוּ אֶת-יִפְתָּח וַיֹּאמְרוּ לוֹ לֹֽא-תִנְחַל בְּבֵית-אָבִינוּ כִּי בֶּן-אִשָּׁה אַחֶרֶת אָֽתָּה׃
And Gilead's wife bare him sons; and his wife's sons grew up, and they thrust out Jephthah, and said unto him, Thou shalt not inherit in our father's house; for thou art the son of a strange woman.
וַיֹּאמֶר יִפְתָּח לְזִקְנֵי גִלְעָד הֲלֹא אַתֶּם שְׂנֵאתֶם אוֹתִי וַתְּגָֽרְשׁוּנִי מִבֵּית אָבִי וּמַדּוּעַ בָּאתֶם אֵלַי עַתָּה כַּֽאֲשֶׁר צַר לָכֶֽם׃
And Jephthah said unto the elders of Gilead, Did not ye hate me, and expel me out of my father's house? and why are ye come unto me now when ye are in distress?
וְהָיָה הַיּוֹצֵא אֲשֶׁר יֵצֵא מִדַּלְתֵי בֵיתִי לִקְרָאתִי בְּשׁוּבִי בְשָׁלוֹם מִבְּנֵי עַמּוֹן וְהָיָה לַֽיהוָה וְהַֽעֲלִיתִיהוּ עוֹלָֽה׃
Then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the LORD's, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering.
וַיָּבֹא יִפְתָּח הַמִּצְפָּה אֶל-בֵּיתוֹ וְהִנֵּה בִתּוֹ יֹצֵאת לִקְרָאתוֹ בְתֻפִּים וּבִמְחֹלוֹת וְרַק הִיא יְחִידָה אֵֽין-לוֹ מִמֶּנּוּ בֵּן אוֹ-בַֽת׃
And Jephthah came to Mizpeh unto his house, and, behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances: and she was his only child; beside her he had neither son nor daughter.
וַיִּצָּעֵק אִישׁ אֶפְרַיִם וַֽיַּעֲבֹר צָפוֹנָה וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ לְיִפְתָּח מַדּוּעַ׀ עָבַרְתָּ׀ לְהִלָּחֵם בִּבְנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן וְלָנוּ לֹא קָרָאתָ לָלֶכֶת עִמָּךְ בֵּֽיתְךָ נִשְׂרֹף עָלֶיךָ בָּאֵֽשׁ׃
And the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and went northward, and said unto Jephthah, Wherefore passedst thou over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thine house upon thee with fire.
וַיְהִי׀ בַּיּוֹם הַשְּׁבִיעִי וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ לְאֵֽשֶׁת-שִׁמְשׁוֹן פַּתִּי אֶת-אִישֵׁךְ וְיַגֶּד-לָנוּ אֶת-הַחִידָה פֶּן-נִשְׂרֹף אוֹתָךְ וְאֶת-בֵּית אָבִיךְ בָּאֵשׁ הַלְיָרְשֵׁנוּ קְרָאתֶם לָנוּ הֲלֹֽא׃
And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they said unto Samson's wife, Entice thy husband, that he may declare unto us the riddle, lest we burn thee and thy father's house with fire: have ye called us to take that we have? is it not so?
וַתִּצְלַח עָלָיו רוּחַ יְהוָה וַיֵּרֶד אַשְׁקְלוֹן וַיַּךְ מֵהֶם׀ שְׁלֹשִׁים אִישׁ וַיִּקַּח אֶת-חֲלִיצוֹתָם וַיִּתֵּן הַֽחֲלִיפוֹת לְמַגִּידֵי הַֽחִידָה וַיִּחַר אַפּוֹ וַיַּעַל בֵּית אָבִֽיהוּ׃
And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave change of garments unto them which expounded the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house.
וַיֹּֽאחֲזוּהוּ פְלִשְׁתִּים וַֽיְנַקְּרוּ אֶת-עֵינָיו וַיּוֹרִידוּ אוֹתוֹ עַזָּתָה וַיַּֽאַסְרוּהוּ בַּֽנְחֻשְׁתַּיִם וַיְהִי טוֹחֵן בְּבֵית (האסירים) הָאֲסוּרִֽים׃
But the Philistines took him, and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza, and bound him with fetters of brass; and he did grind in the prison house.
וַֽיְהִי (כי) (טוב) כְּיטוֹב לִבָּם וַיֹּאמְרוּ קִרְאוּ לְשִׁמְשׁוֹן וִישַֽׂחֶק-לָנוּ וַיִּקְרְאוּ לְשִׁמְשׁוֹן מִבֵּית (האסירים) הָאֲסוּרִים וַיְצַחֵק לִפְנֵיהֶם וַיַּֽעֲמִידוּ אוֹתוֹ בֵּין הָֽעַמּוּדִֽים׃
And it came to pass, when their hearts were merry, that they said, Call for Samson, that he may make us sport. And they called for Samson out of the prison house; and he made them sport: and they set him between the pillars.
וַיֹּאמֶר שִׁמְשׁוֹן אֶל-הַנַּעַר הַמַּֽחֲזִיק בְּיָדוֹ הַנִּיחָה אוֹתִי (והימשני) וַהֲמִשֵׁנִי אֶת-הָֽעַמֻּדִים אֲשֶׁר הַבַּיִת נָכוֹן עֲלֵיהֶם וְאֶשָּׁעֵן עֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
And Samson said unto the lad that held him by the hand, Suffer me that I may feel the pillars whereupon the house standeth, that I may lean upon them.
וְהַבַּיִת מָלֵא הָֽאֲנָשִׁים וְהַנָּשִׁים וְשָׁמָּה כֹּל סַרְנֵי פְלִשְׁתִּים וְעַל-הַגָּג כִּשְׁלֹשֶׁת אֲלָפִים אִישׁ וְאִשָּׁה הָֽרֹאִים בִּשְׂחוֹק שִׁמְשֽׁוֹן׃
Now the house was full of men and women; and all the lords of the Philistines were there; and there were upon the roof about three thousand men and women, that beheld while Samson made sport.
וַיִּלְפֹּת שִׁמְשׁוֹן אֶת-שְׁנֵי׀ עַמּוּדֵי הַתָּוֶךְ אֲשֶׁר הַבַּיִת נָכוֹן עֲלֵיהֶם וַיִּסָּמֵךְ עֲלֵיהֶם אֶחָד בִּֽימִינוֹ וְאֶחָד בִּשְׂמֹאלֽוֹ׃
And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars upon which the house stood, and on which it was borne up, of the one with his right hand, and of the other with his left.
וַיֹּאמֶר שִׁמְשׁוֹן תָּמוֹת נַפְשִׁי עִם-פְּלִשְׁתִּים וַיֵּט בְּכֹחַ וַיִּפֹּל הַבַּיִת עַל-הַסְּרָנִים וְעַל-כָּל-הָעָם אֲשֶׁר-בּוֹ וַיִּֽהְיוּ הַמֵּתִים אֲשֶׁר הֵמִית בְּמוֹתוֹ רַבִּים מֵֽאֲשֶׁר הֵמִית בְּחַיָּֽיו׃
And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than they which he slew in his life.
וַיֵּֽרְדוּ אֶחָיו וְכָל-בֵּית אָבִיהוּ וַיִּשְׂאוּ אֹתוֹ וַֽיַּעֲלוּ׀ וַיִּקְבְּרוּ אוֹתוֹ בֵּין צָרְעָה וּבֵין אֶשְׁתָּאֹל בְּקֶבֶר מָנוֹחַ אָבִיו וְהוּא שָׁפַט אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל עֶשְׂרִים שָׁנָֽה׃
Then his brethren and all the house of his father came down, and took him, and brought him up, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the buryingplace of Manoah his father. And he judged Israel twenty years.
וַיָּשֶׁב אֶת-הַכֶּסֶף לְאִמּוֹ וַתִּקַּח אִמּוֹ מָאתַיִם כֶּסֶף וַתִּתְּנֵהוּ לַצּוֹרֵף וַֽיַּעֲשֵׂהוּ פֶּסֶל וּמַסֵּכָה וַֽיְהִי בְּבֵית מִיכָֽיְהוּ׃
Yet he restored the money unto his mother; and his mother took two hundred shekels of silver, and gave them to the founder, who made thereof a graven image and a molten image: and they were in the house of Micah.
וְהָאִישׁ מִיכָה לוֹ בֵּית אֱלֹהִים וַיַּעַשׂ אֵפוֹד וּתְרָפִים וַיְמַלֵּא אֶת-יַד אַחַד מִבָּנָיו וַֽיְהִי-לוֹ לְכֹהֵֽן׃
And the man Micah had an house of gods, and made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.
וַיֵּלֶךְ הָאִישׁ מֵֽהָעִיר מִבֵּית לֶחֶם יְהוּדָה לָגוּר בַּֽאֲשֶׁר יִמְצָא וַיָּבֹא הַר-אֶפְרַיִם עַד-בֵּית מִיכָה לַֽעֲשׂוֹת דַּרְכּֽוֹ׃
And the man departed out of the city from Bethlehem-judah to sojourn where he could find a place: and he came to mount Ephraim to the house of Micah, as he journeyed.
וַיְמַלֵּא מִיכָה אֶת-יַד הַלֵּוִי וַֽיְהִי-לוֹ הַנַּעַר לְכֹהֵן וַיְהִי בְּבֵית מִיכָֽה׃
And Micah consecrated the Levite; and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.
וַיִּשְׁלְחוּ בְנֵי-דָן׀ מִֽמִּשְׁפַּחְתָּם חֲמִשָּׁה אֲנָשִׁים מִקְצוֹתָם אֲנָשִׁים בְּנֵי-חַיִל מִצָּרְעָה וּמֵֽאֶשְׁתָּאֹל לְרַגֵּל אֶת-הָאָרֶץ וּלְחָקְרָהּ וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ אֲלֵהֶם לְכוּ חִקְרוּ אֶת-הָאָרֶץ וַיָּבֹאוּ הַר-אֶפְרַיִם עַד-בֵּית מִיכָה וַיָּלִינוּ שָֽׁם׃
And the children of Dan sent of their family five men from their coasts, men of valour, from Zorah, and from Eshtaol, to spy out the land, and to search it; and they said unto them, Go, search the land: who when they came to mount Ephraim, to the house of Micah, they lodged there.
הֵמָּה עִם-בֵּית מִיכָה וְהֵמָּה הִכִּירוּ אֶת-קוֹל הַנַּעַר הַלֵּוִי וַיָּסוּרוּ שָׁם וַיֹּאמְרוּ לוֹ מִֽי-הֱבִיאֲךָ הֲלֹם וּמָֽה-אַתָּה עֹשֶׂה בָּזֶה וּמַה-לְּךָ פֹֽה׃
When they were by the house of Micah, they knew the voice of the young man the Levite: and they turned in thither, and said unto him, Who brought thee hither? and what makest thou in this place? and what hast thou here?
וַיַּֽעַבְרוּ מִשָּׁם הַר-אֶפְרָיִם וַיָּבֹאוּ עַד-בֵּית מִיכָֽה׃
And they passed thence unto mount Ephraim, and came unto the house of Micah.
וַֽיַּעֲנוּ חֲמֵשֶׁת הָֽאֲנָשִׁים הַהֹֽלְכִים לְרַגֵּל אֶת-הָאָרֶץ לַיִשׁ וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ אֶל-אֲחֵיהֶם הַיְדַעְתֶּם כִּי יֵשׁ בַּבָּתִּים הָאֵלֶּה אֵפוֹד וּתְרָפִים וּפֶסֶל וּמַסֵּכָה וְעַתָּה דְּעוּ מַֽה-תַּעֲשֽׂוּ׃
Then answered the five men that went to spy out the country of Laish, and said unto their brethren, Do ye know that there is in these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and a graven image, and a molten image? now therefore consider what ye have to do.
וַיָּסוּרוּ שָׁמָּה וַיָּבֹאוּ אֶל-בֵּֽית-הַנַּעַר הַלֵּוִי בֵּית מִיכָה וַיִּשְׁאֲלוּ-לוֹ לְשָׁלֽוֹם׃
And they turned thitherward, and came to the house of the young man the Levite, even unto the house of Micah, and saluted him.
וְאֵלֶּה בָּאוּ בֵּית מִיכָה וַיִּקְחוּ אֶת-פֶּסֶל הָֽאֵפוֹד וְאֶת-הַתְּרָפִים וְאֶת-הַמַּסֵּכָה וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם הַכֹּהֵן מָה אַתֶּם עֹשִֽׂים׃
And these went into Micah's house, and fetched the carved image, the ephod, and the teraphim, and the molten image. Then said the priest unto them, What do ye?
וַיֹּאמְרוּ לוֹ הַֽחֲרֵשׁ שִֽׂים-יָדְךָ עַל-פִּיךָ וְלֵךְ עִמָּנוּ וֶֽהְיֵה-לָנוּ לְאָב וּלְכֹהֵן הֲטוֹב׀ הֱיֽוֹתְךָ כֹהֵן לְבֵית אִישׁ אֶחָד אוֹ הֱיֽוֹתְךָ כֹהֵן לְשֵׁבֶט וּלְמִשְׁפָּחָה בְּיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And they said unto him, Hold thy peace, lay thine hand upon thy mouth, and go with us, and be to us a father and a priest: is it better for thee to be a priest unto the house of one man, or that thou be a priest unto a tribe and a family in Israel?
הֵמָּה הִרְחִיקוּ מִבֵּית מִיכָה וְהָֽאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר בַּבָּתִּים אֲשֶׁר עִם-בֵּית מִיכָה נִֽזְעֲקוּ וַיַּדְבִּיקוּ אֶת-בְּנֵי-דָֽן׃
And when they were a good way from the house of Micah, the men that were in the houses near to Micah's house were gathered together, and overtook the children of Dan.
וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ אֵלָיו בְּנֵי-דָן אַל-תַּשְׁמַע קֽוֹלְךָ עִמָּנוּ פֶּֽן-יִפְגְּעוּ בָכֶם אֲנָשִׁים מָרֵי נֶפֶשׁ וְאָֽסַפְתָּה נַפְשְׁךָ וְנֶפֶשׁ בֵּיתֶֽךָ׃
And the children of Dan said unto him, Let not thy voice be heard among us, lest angry fellows run upon thee, and thou lose thy life, with the lives of thy household.
וַיֵּֽלְכוּ בְנֵי-דָן לְדַרְכָּם וַיַּרְא מִיכָה כִּֽי-חֲזָקִים הֵמָּה מִמֶּנּוּ וַיִּפֶן וַיָּשָׁב אֶל-בֵּיתֽוֹ׃
And the children of Dan went their way: and when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back unto his house.
וַיָּשִׂימוּ לָהֶם אֶת-פֶּסֶל מִיכָה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה כָּל-יְמֵי הֱיוֹת בֵּית-הָֽאֱלֹהִים בְּשִׁלֹֽה׃
And they set them up Micah's graven image, which he made, all the time that the house of God was in Shiloh.
וַתִּזְנֶה עָלָיו פִּֽילַגְשׁוֹ וַתֵּלֶךְ מֵֽאִתּוֹ אֶל-בֵּית אָבִיהָ אֶל-בֵּית לֶחֶם יְהוּדָה וַתְּהִי-שָׁם יָמִים אַרְבָּעָה חֳדָשִֽׁים׃
And his concubine played the whore against him, and went away from him unto her father's house to Bethlehem-judah, and was there four whole months.
וַיָּקָם אִישָׁהּ וַיֵּלֶךְ אַֽחֲרֶיהָ לְדַבֵּר עַל-לִבָּהּ (להשיבו) לַהֲשִׁיבָהּ וְנַֽעֲרוֹ עִמּוֹ וְצֶמֶד חֲמֹרִים וַתְּבִיאֵהוּ בֵּית אָבִיהָ וַיִּרְאֵהוּ אֲבִי הַֽנַּעֲרָה וַיִּשְׂמַח לִקְרָאתֽוֹ׃
And her husband arose, and went after her, to speak friendly unto her, and to bring her again, having his servant with him, and a couple of asses: and she brought him into her father's house: and when the father of the damsel saw him, he rejoiced to meet him.
וַיָּסֻרוּ שָׁם לָבוֹא לָלוּן בַּגִּבְעָה וַיָּבֹא וַיֵּשֶׁב בִּרְחוֹב הָעִיר וְאֵין אִישׁ מְאַסֵּֽף-אוֹתָם הַבַּיְתָה לָלֽוּן׃
And they turned aside thither, to go in and to lodge in Gibeah: and when he went in, he sat him down in a street of the city: for there was no man that took them into his house to lodging.
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו עֹֽבְרִים אֲנַחְנוּ מִבֵּֽית-לֶחֶם יְהוּדָה עַד-יַרְכְּתֵי הַר-אֶפְרַיִם מִשָּׁם אָנֹכִי וָֽאֵלֵךְ עַד-בֵּית לֶחֶם יְהוּדָה וְאֶת-בֵּית יְהוָה אֲנִי הֹלֵךְ וְאֵין אִישׁ מְאַסֵּף אוֹתִי הַבָּֽיְתָה׃
And he said unto him, We are passing from Bethlehem-judah toward the side of mount Ephraim; from thence am I: and I went to Bethlehem-judah, but I am now going to the house of the LORD; and there is no man that receiveth me to house.
וַיְבִיאֵהוּ לְבֵיתוֹ וַיָּבָוֹל לַֽחֲמוֹרִים וַֽיִּרְחֲצוּ רַגְלֵיהֶם וַיֹּֽאכְלוּ וַיִּשְׁתּֽוּ׃
So he brought him into his house, and gave provender unto the asses: and they washed their feet, and did eat and drink.
הֵמָּה מֵֽיטִיבִים אֶת-לִבָּם וְהִנֵּה אַנְשֵׁי הָעִיר אַנְשֵׁי בְנֵֽי-בְלִיַּעַל נָסַבּוּ אֶת-הַבַּיִת מִֽתְדַּפְּקִים עַל-הַדָּלֶת וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ אֶל-הָאִישׁ בַּעַל הַבַּיִת הַזָּקֵן לֵאמֹר הוֹצֵא אֶת-הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר-בָּא אֶל-בֵּֽיתְךָ וְנֵֽדָעֶֽנּוּ׃
Now as they were making their hearts merry, behold, the men of the city, certain sons of Belial, beset the house round about, and beat at the door, and spake to the master of the house, the old man, saying, Bring forth the man that came into thine house, that we may know him.
וַיֵּצֵא אֲלֵיהֶם הָאִישׁ בַּעַל הַבַּיִת וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵהֶם אַל-אַחַי אַל-תָּרֵעוּ נָא אַֽחֲרֵי אֲשֶׁר-בָּא הָאִישׁ הַזֶּה אַל-בֵּיתִי אַֽל-תַּעֲשׂוּ אֶת-הַנְּבָלָה הַזֹּֽאת׃
And the man, the master of the house, went out unto them, and said unto them, Nay, my brethren, nay, I pray you, do not so wickedly; seeing that this man is come into mine house, do not this folly.
וַתָּבֹא הָֽאִשָּׁה לִפְנוֹת הַבֹּקֶר וַתִּפֹּל פֶּתַח בֵּית-הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר-אֲדוֹנֶיהָ שָּׁם עַד-הָאֽוֹר׃
Then came the woman in the dawning of the day, and fell down at the door of the man's house where her lord was, till it was light.
וַיָּקָם אֲדֹנֶיהָ בַּבֹּקֶר וַיִּפְתַּח דַּלְתוֹת הַבַּיִת וַיֵּצֵא לָלֶכֶת לְדַרְכּוֹ וְהִנֵּה הָֽאִשָּׁה פִֽילַגְשׁוֹ נֹפֶלֶת פֶּתַח הַבַּיִת וְיָדֶיהָ עַל-הַסַּֽף׃
And her lord rose up in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go his way: and, behold, the woman his concubine was fallen down at the door of the house, and her hands were upon the threshold.
וַיָּבֹא אֶל-בֵּיתוֹ וַיִּקַּח אֶת-הַֽמַּאֲכֶלֶת וַיַּֽחֲזֵק בְּפִֽילַגְשׁוֹ וַֽיְנַתְּחֶהָ לַֽעֲצָמֶיהָ לִשְׁנֵים עָשָׂר נְתָחִים וַֽיְשַׁלְּחֶהָ בְּכֹל גְּבוּל יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And when he was come into his house, he took a knife, and laid hold on his concubine, and divided her, together with her bones, into twelve pieces, and sent her into all the coasts of Israel.
וַיָּקֻמוּ עָלַי בַּֽעֲלֵי הַגִּבְעָה וַיָּסֹבּוּ עָלַי אֶת-הַבַּיִת לָיְלָה אוֹתִי דִּמּוּ לַֽהֲרֹג וְאֶת-פִּֽילַגְשִׁי עִנּוּ וַתָּמֹֽת׃
And the men of Gibeah rose against me, and beset the house round about upon me by night, and thought to have slain me: and my concubine have they forced, that she is dead.
וַיָּקָם כָּל-הָעָם כְּאִישׁ אֶחָד לֵאמֹר לֹא נֵלֵךְ אִישׁ לְאָֽהֳלוֹ וְלֹא נָסוּר אִישׁ לְבֵיתֽוֹ׃
And all the people arose as one man, saying, We will not any of us go to his tent, neither will we any of us turn into his house.
וַתֹּאמֶר נָֽעֳמִי לִשְׁתֵּי כַלֹּתֶיהָ לֵכְנָה שֹּׁבְנָה אִשָּׁה לְבֵית אִמָּהּ (יעשה) יַעַשׂ יְהוָה עִמָּכֶם חֶסֶד כַּֽאֲשֶׁר עֲשִׂיתֶם עִם-הַמֵּתִים וְעִמָּדִֽי׃
And Naomi said unto her two daughters in law, Go, return each to her mother's house: the LORD deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead, and with me.
יִתֵּן יְהוָה לָכֶם וּמְצֶאןָ מְנוּחָה אִשָּׁה בֵּית אִישָׁהּ וַתִּשַּׁק לָהֶן וַתִּשֶּׂאנָה קוֹלָן וַתִּבְכֶּֽינָה׃
The LORD grant you that ye may find rest, each of you in the house of her husband. Then she kissed them; and they lifted up their voice, and wept.
וַתֹּאמֶר אֲלַקֳטָה-נָּא וְאָֽסַפְתִּי בָֽעֳמָרִים אַֽחֲרֵי הַקּֽוֹצְרִים וַתָּבוֹא וַֽתַּעֲמוֹד מֵאָז הַבֹּקֶר וְעַד-עַתָּה זֶה שִׁבְתָּהּ הַבַּיִת מְעָֽט׃
And she said, I pray you, let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves: so she came, and hath continued even from the morning until now, that she tarried a little in the house.
וַיֹּאמְרוּ כָּל-הָעָם אֲשֶׁר-בַּשַּׁעַר וְהַזְּקֵנִים עֵדִים יִתֵּן יְהוָה אֶֽת-הָאִשָּׁה הַבָּאָה אֶל-בֵּיתֶךָ כְּרָחֵל׀ וּכְלֵאָה אֲשֶׁר בָּנוּ שְׁתֵּיהֶם אֶת-בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל וַֽעֲשֵׂה-חַיִל בְּאֶפְרָתָה וּקְרָא-שֵׁם בְּבֵית לָֽחֶם׃
And all the people that were in the gate, and the elders, said, We are witnesses. The LORD make the woman that is come into thine house like Rachel and like Leah, which two did build the house of Israel: and do thou worthily in Ephratah, and be famous in Bethlehem:
וִיהִי בֵֽיתְךָ כְּבֵית פֶּרֶץ אֲשֶׁר-יָֽלְדָה תָמָר לִֽיהוּדָה מִן-הַזֶּרַע אֲשֶׁר יִתֵּן יְהוָה לְךָ מִן-הַֽנַּעֲרָה הַזֹּֽאת׃
And let thy house be like the house of Pharez, whom Tamar bare unto Judah, of the seed which the LORD shall give thee of this young woman.
וְכֵן יַֽעֲשֶׂה שָׁנָה בְשָׁנָה מִדֵּי עֲלֹתָהּ בְּבֵית יְהוָה כֵּן תַּכְעִסֶנָּה וַתִּבְכֶּה וְלֹא תֹאכַֽל׃
And as he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.
וַיַּשְׁכִּמוּ בַבֹּקֶר וַיִּֽשְׁתַּחֲווּ לִפְנֵי יְהוָה וַיָּשֻׁבוּ וַיָּבֹאוּ אֶל-בֵּיתָם הָֽרָמָתָה וַיֵּדַע אֶלְקָנָה אֶת-חַנָּה אִשְׁתּוֹ וַֽיִּזְכְּרֶהָ יְהוָֽה׃
And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her.
וַיַּעַל הָאִישׁ אֶלְקָנָה וְכָל-בֵּיתוֹ לִזְבֹּחַ לַֽיהוָה אֶת-זֶבַח הַיָּמִים וְאֶת-נִדְרֽוֹ׃
And the man Elkanah, and all his house, went up to offer unto the LORD the yearly sacrifice, and his vow.
וַתַּֽעֲלֵהוּ עִמָּהּ כַּֽאֲשֶׁר גְּמָלַתּוּ בְּפָרִים שְׁלֹשָׁה וְאֵיפָה אַחַת קֶמַח וְנֵבֶל יַיִן וַתְּבִאֵהוּ בֵית-יְהוָה שִׁלוֹ וְהַנַּעַר נָֽעַר׃
And when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a bottle of wine, and brought him unto the house of the LORD in Shiloh: and the child was young.
וַיֵּלֶךְ אֶלְקָנָה הָֽרָמָתָה עַל-בֵּיתוֹ וְהַנַּעַר הָיָה מְשָׁרֵת אֶת-יְהוָה אֶת-פְּנֵי עֵלִי הַכֹּהֵֽן׃
And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto the LORD before Eli the priest.
וַיָּבֹא אִישׁ-אֱלֹהִים אֶל-עֵלִי וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה הֲנִגְלֹה נִגְלֵיתִי אֶל-בֵּית אָבִיךָ בִּֽהְיוֹתָם בְּמִצְרַיִם לְבֵית פַּרְעֹֽה׃
And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house?
וּבָחֹר אֹתוֹ מִכָּל-שִׁבְטֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל לִי לְכֹהֵן לַֽעֲלוֹת עַֽל-מִזְבְּחִי לְהַקְטִיר קְטֹרֶת לָשֵׂאת אֵפוֹד לְפָנָי וָֽאֶתְּנָה לְבֵית אָבִיךָ אֶת-כָּל-אִשֵּׁי בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?
לָכֵן נְאֻם-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אָמוֹר אָמַרְתִּי בֵּֽיתְךָ וּבֵית אָבִיךָ יִתְהַלְּכוּ לְפָנַי עַד-עוֹלָם וְעַתָּה נְאֻם-יְהוָה חָלִילָה לִּי כִּֽי-מְכַבְּדַי אֲכַבֵּד וּבֹזַי יֵקָֽלּוּ׃
Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
הִנֵּה יָמִים בָּאִים וְגָֽדַעְתִּי אֶת-זְרֹעֲךָ וְאֶת-זְרֹעַ בֵּית אָבִיךָ מִֽהְיוֹת זָקֵן בְּבֵיתֶֽךָ׃
Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thine house.
וְהִבַּטְתָּ צַר מָעוֹן בְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר-יֵיטִיב אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל וְלֹֽא-יִהְיֶה זָקֵן בְּבֵֽיתְךָ כָּל-הַיָּמִֽים׃
And thou shalt see an enemy in my habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thine house for ever.
וְאִישׁ לֹֽא-אַכְרִית לְךָ מֵעִם מִזְבְּחִי לְכַלּוֹת אֶת-עֵינֶיךָ וְלַֽאֲדִיב אֶת-נַפְשֶׁךָ וְכָל-מַרְבִּית בֵּֽיתְךָ יָמוּתוּ אֲנָשִֽׁים׃
And the man of thine, whom I shall not cut off from mine altar, shall be to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thine heart: and all the increase of thine house shall die in the flower of their age.
וַהֲקִֽימֹתִי לִי כֹּהֵן נֶֽאֱמָן כַּֽאֲשֶׁר בִּלְבָבִי וּבְנַפְשִׁי יַֽעֲשֶׂה וּבָנִיתִי לוֹ בַּיִת נֶֽאֱמָן וְהִתְהַלֵּךְ לִפְנֵֽי-מְשִׁיחִי כָּל-הַיָּמִֽים׃
And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in mine heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed for ever.
וְהָיָה כָּל-הַנּוֹתָר בְּבֵיתְךָ יָבוֹא לְהִשְׁתַּֽחֲוֹת לוֹ לַֽאֲגוֹרַת כֶּסֶף וְכִכַּר-לָחֶם וְאָמַר סְפָחֵנִי נָא אֶל-אַחַת הַכְּהֻנּוֹת לֶֽאֱכֹל פַּת-לָֽחֶם׃
And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left in thine house shall come and crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא אָקִים אֶל-עֵלִי אֵת כָּל-אֲשֶׁר דִּבַּרְתִּי אֶל-בֵּיתוֹ הָחֵל וְכַלֵּֽה׃
In that day I will perform against Eli all things which I have spoken concerning his house: when I begin, I will also make an end.
וְהִגַּדְתִּי לוֹ כִּֽי-שֹׁפֵט אֲנִי אֶת-בֵּיתוֹ עַד-עוֹלָם בַּֽעֲוֹן אֲשֶׁר-יָדַע כִּֽי-מְקַלְלִים לָהֶם בָּנָיו וְלֹא כִהָה בָּֽם׃
For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knoweth; because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not.
וְלָכֵן נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי לְבֵית עֵלִי אִֽם-יִתְכַּפֵּר עֲוֹן בֵּית-עֵלִי בְּזֶבַח וּבְמִנְחָה עַד-עוֹלָֽם׃
And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be purged with sacrifice nor offering for ever.
וַיִּשְׁכַּב שְׁמוּאֵל עַד-הַבֹּקֶר וַיִּפְתַּח אֶת-דַּלְתוֹת בֵּית-יְהוָה וּשְׁמוּאֵל יָרֵא מֵֽהַגִּיד אֶת-הַמַּרְאָה אֶל-עֵלִֽי׃
And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel feared to shew Eli the vision.
וַיִּקְחוּ פְלִשְׁתִּים אֶת-אֲרוֹן הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַיָּבִאוּ אֹתוֹ בֵּית דָּגוֹן וַיַּצִּיגוּ אֹתוֹ אֵצֶל דָּגֽוֹן׃
When the Philistines took the ark of God, they brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
עַל-כֵּן לֹֽא-יִדְרְכוּ כֹֽהֲנֵי דָגוֹן וְכָֽל-הַבָּאִים בֵּית-דָּגוֹן עַל-מִפְתַּן דָּגוֹן בְּאַשְׁדּוֹד עַד הַיּוֹם הַזֶּֽה׃
Therefore neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that come into Dagon's house, tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod unto this day.
וְעַתָּה קְחוּ וַֽעֲשׂוּ עֲגָלָה חֲדָשָׁה אֶחָת וּשְׁתֵּי פָרוֹת עָלוֹת אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-עָלָה עֲלֵיהֶם עֹל וַֽאֲסַרְתֶּם אֶת-הַפָּרוֹת בָּֽעֲגָלָה וַהֲשֵֽׁיבֹתֶם בְּנֵיהֶם מֵאַֽחֲרֵיהֶם הַבָּֽיְתָה׃
Now therefore make a new cart, and take two milch kine, on which there hath come no yoke, and tie the kine to the cart, and bring their calves home from them:
וַיַּֽעֲשׂוּ הָֽאֲנָשִׁים כֵּן וַיִּקְחוּ שְׁתֵּי פָרוֹת עָלוֹת וַיַּֽאַסְרוּם בָּֽעֲגָלָה וְאֶת-בְּנֵיהֶם כָּלוּ בַבָּֽיִת׃
And the men did so; and took two milch kine, and tied them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home:
וַיָּבֹאוּ אַנְשֵׁי׀ קִרְיַת יְעָרִים וַֽיַּעֲלוּ אֶת-אֲרוֹן יְהוָה וַיָּבִאוּ אֹתוֹ אֶל-בֵּית אֲבִֽינָדָב בַּגִּבְעָה וְאֶת-אֶלְעָזָר בְּנוֹ קִדְּשׁוּ לִשְׁמֹר אֶת-אֲרוֹן יְהוָֽה׃
And the men of Kirjath-jearim came, and fetched up the ark of the LORD, and brought it into the house of Abinadab in the hill, and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the LORD.
וַיְהִי מִיּוֹם שֶׁבֶת הָֽאָרוֹן בְּקִרְיַת יְעָרִים וַיִּרְבּוּ הַיָּמִים וַיִּֽהְיוּ עֶשְׂרִים שָׁנָה וַיִּנָּהוּ כָּל-בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל אַֽחֲרֵי יְהוָֽה׃
And it came to pass, while the ark abode in Kirjath-jearim, that the time was long; for it was twenty years: and all the house of Israel lamented after the LORD.
וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל-כָּל-בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל לֵאמֹר אִם-בְּכָל-לְבַבְכֶם אַתֶּם שָׁבִים אֶל-יְהוָה הָסִירוּ אֶת-אֱלֹהֵי הַנֵּכָר מִתּֽוֹכְכֶם וְהָֽעַשְׁתָּרוֹת וְהָכִינוּ לְבַבְכֶם אֶל-יְהוָה וְעִבְדֻהוּ לְבַדּוֹ וְיַצֵּל אֶתְכֶם מִיַּד פְּלִשְׁתִּֽים׃
And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do return unto the LORD with all your hearts, then put away the strange gods and Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts unto the LORD, and serve him only: and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.
וּתְשֻֽׁבָתוֹ הָֽרָמָתָה כִּֽי-שָׁם בֵּיתוֹ וְשָׁם שָׁפָט אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיִּֽבֶן-שָׁם מִזְבֵּחַ לַֽיהוָֽה׃
And his return was to Ramah; for there was his house; and there he judged Israel; and there he built an altar unto the LORD.
וַיִּגַּשׁ שָׁאוּל אֶת-שְׁמוּאֵל בְּתוֹךְ הַשָּׁעַר וַיֹּאמֶר הַגִּֽידָה-נָּא לִי אֵי-זֶה בֵּית הָֽרֹאֶֽה׃
Then Saul drew near to Samuel in the gate, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, where the seer's house is.
וְלָֽאֲתֹנוֹת הָאֹֽבְדוֹת לְךָ הַיּוֹם שְׁלֹשֶׁת הַיָּמִים אַל-תָּשֶׂם אֶֽת-לִבְּךָ לָהֶם כִּי נִמְצָאוּ וּלְמִי כָּל-חֶמְדַּת יִשְׂרָאֵל הֲלוֹא לְךָ וּלְכֹל בֵּית אָבִֽיךָ׃
And as for thine asses that were lost three days ago, set not thy mind on them; for they are found. And on whom is all the desire of Israel? Is it not on thee, and on all thy father's house?
וַיְדַבֵּר שְׁמוּאֵל אֶל-הָעָם אֵת מִשְׁפַּט הַמְּלֻכָה וַיִּכְתֹּב בַּסֵּפֶר וַיַּנַּח לִפְנֵי יְהוָה וַיְשַׁלַּח שְׁמוּאֵל אֶת-כָּל-הָעָם אִישׁ לְבֵיתֽוֹ׃
Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.
וְגַם-שָׁאוּל הָלַךְ לְבֵיתוֹ גִּבְעָתָה וַיֵּֽלְכוּ עִמּוֹ הַחַיִל אֲשֶׁר-נָגַע אֱלֹהִים בְּלִבָּֽם׃
And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and there went with him a band of men, whose hearts God had touched.
וַיֵּלֶךְ שְׁמוּאֵל הָֽרָמָתָה וְשָׁאוּל עָלָה אֶל-בֵּיתוֹ גִּבְעַת שָׁאֽוּל׃
Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house to Gibeah of Saul.
וַיֹּאמֶר׀ אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל הַרְּאִיתֶם הָאִישׁ הָֽעֹלֶה הַזֶּה כִּי לְחָרֵף אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל עֹלֶה וְֽהָיָה הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר-יַכֶּנּוּ יַעְשְׁרֶנּוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ׀ עֹשֶׁר גָּדוֹל וְאֶת-בִּתּוֹ יִתֶּן-לוֹ וְאֵת בֵּית אָבִיו יַֽעֲשֶׂה חָפְשִׁי בְּיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that is come up? surely to defy Israel is he come up: and it shall be, that the man who killeth him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house free in Israel.
