Hakim-hakim 7:21-22

7:21 They stood in order ¹  all around the camp. The whole army ran away; they shouted as they scrambled away. ²  7:22 When the three hundred men blew their trumpets, the Lord caused the Midianites to attack one another with their swords ³  throughout ⁴  the camp. The army fled to Beth Shittah on the way to Zererah. They went ⁵  to the border of Abel Meholah near Tabbath.

[7:21]  ¹ tn Heb “each in his place.”

[7:21]  ² tn Or “fled.”

[7:22]  ³ tn Heb “the Lord set the sword of each one against his friend.”

[7:22]  ⁴ tc MT has “and throughout the camp,” but the conjunction (“and”) is due to dittography and should be dropped. Compare the ancient versions, which lack the conjunction here.

[7:22]  ⁵ tn The words “they went” are supplied in the translation for clarification.
