So it was, whenever Israel had sown, Midianites would come up; also Amalekites and the people of the East would come up against them.

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，

每当以色列人撒种之后，米甸、亚玛力和东边的人都上来攻打他们，

每当以色列人撒种之后，米甸、亚玛力和东边的人都上来攻打他们，

每当他们撒种的时候，米甸人、亚玛力人及东方人就前来进犯，

每逢以色列人撒种以后，米甸人、亚玛力人和东方人都上来，欺压他们；

以色列人每逢撒種之後，米甸人、亞瑪力人，和東方人都上來攻打他們，

每當以色列人撒種之後，米甸、亞瑪力和東邊的人都上來攻打他們，

每當以色列人撒種之後，米甸、亞瑪力和東邊的人都上來攻打他們，

每逢以色列人播種之後，米甸人總上來，亞瑪力人和東方人也都上來、攻打他們，

既播厥種、米甸亞瑪力與東方之人、咸上攻之、

以色列族耕稼既畢、米田亞馬力與東方之人、咸來攻擊、

以色列人既耕種、耕種原文作播種米甸人、亞瑪力人、及東方人、咸上攻之、

Whenever the Israelites planted their crops, the Midianites, Amalekites and other eastern peoples invaded the country.

Each year the people planted their crops. When they did, the Midianites came into the country and attacked it. So did the Amalekites and other tribes from the east.

For whenever the Israelites planted crops, the Midianites and the Amalekites and the people of the East would come up against them.

Whenever the Israelites planted their crops, marauders from Midian, Amalek, and the people of the east would attack Israel,

Whenever the Israelites planted crops, the Midianites, Amalekites, and the people of the east came and attacked them.

For whenever Israel had sown, the Midianites would come up with the Amalekites and the people of the east and march against them.

And so it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east; they came up against them;

Whenever the Israelites planted crops, the Midianites, Amalekites, and the Qedemites came and attacked them.

And[ so] it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east, even they came up against them;

Whenever the Israelites planted their crops, the Midianites, Amalekites, and the people from the east would attack them.

Then he gathered to himself the people of Ammon and Amalek, went and defeated Israel, and took possession of the City of Palms.

Now the Midianites and Amalekites, all the people of the East, were lying in the valley as numerous as locusts; and their camels were without number, as the sand by the seashore in multitude.

Also, his possessions were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very large household, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the East.

So Jacob went on his journey and came to the land of the people of the East.

Now Zebah and Zalmunna were at Karkor, and their armies with them, about fifteen thousand, all who were left of all the army of the people of the East; for one hundred and twenty thousand men who drew the sword had fallen.

Thus Solomon’s wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the men of the East and all the wisdom of Egypt.

Then all the Midianites and Amalekites, the people of the East, gathered together; and they crossed over and encamped in the Valley of Jezreel.

“ You shall sow, but not reap; You shall tread the olives, but not anoint yourselves with oil; And make sweet wine, but not drink wine.

Then let me sow, and another eat; Yes, let my harvest be rooted out.

I also will do this to you: I will even appoint terror over you, wasting disease and fever which shall consume the eyes and cause sorrow of heart. And you shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.

“ You shall betroth a wife, but another man shall lie with her; you shall build a house, but you shall not dwell in it; you shall plant a vineyard, but shall not gather its grapes.Your ox shall be slaughtered before your eyes, but you shall not eat of it; your donkey shall be violently taken away from before you, and shall not be restored to you; your sheep shall be given to your enemies, and you shall have no one to rescue them.Your sons and your daughters shall be given to another people, and your eyes shall look and fail with longing for them all day long; and there shall be no strength in your hand.A nation whom you have not known shall eat the fruit of your land and the produce of your labor, and you shall be only oppressed and crushed continually.

And they shall eat the increase of your livestock and the produce of your land, until you are destroyed; they shall not leave you grain or new wine or oil, or the increase of your cattle or the offspring of your flocks, until they have destroyed you.

They shall build houses and inhabit them; They shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.They shall not build and another inhabit; They shall not plant and another eat; For as the days of a tree, so shall be the days of My people, And My elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
