基甸说：“我怎能比得上你们呢？以法莲人摘剩的葡萄岂不比我们亚比以谢族收获的葡萄更好吗？

基甸对他们说：“我所行的岂能比你们所行的呢？以法莲拾取剩下的葡萄不强过亚比以谢所摘的葡萄吗？

基甸对他们说：“我现在所做的怎么与你们所做的相比呢？以法莲拾取剩下的葡萄不强过亚比以谢族所摘的葡萄吗？

基甸对他们说：“我现在所做的怎么与你们所做的相比呢？以法莲拾取剩下的葡萄不强过亚比以谢族所摘的葡萄吗？

基甸对他们说：“我所行的怎能比得上你们呢？在以法莲拾取剩下的葡萄，不是比在亚比以谢收摘的葡萄更好吗？

基甸對他們說：「我所行的豈能比你們所行的呢？以法蓮拾取剩下的葡萄不強過亞比以謝所摘的葡萄嗎？

基甸對他們說：『我現在所行的怎能比得上你們呢？以法蓮摘取剩下的葡萄、不強過亞比以謝所割取的麼？

基甸曰、我之所為、豈能比爾之所為、以法蓮所採之遺果、詎不勝於亞比以謝所斂之葡萄乎、

其田曰、我之所為、與爾所為、焉能比較、亞庇以泄之斂取葡萄、不及以法蓮之採遺實也。

基甸曰、我之所為、豈能比爾之所為乎、以法蓮人拾所遺之葡萄、豈不勝於亞比以謝族初斂之葡萄乎、

But he answered them,“ What have I accomplished compared to you? Aren’t the gleanings of Ephraim’s grapes better than the full grape harvest of Abiezer?

But he answered them,“ What I’ve done isn’t anything compared to what you have done. Ephraim’s grapes have been gathered. Isn’t what is left over better than all the grapes that have been gathered from Abiezer’s vines?

And he said to them,“ What have I done now in comparison with you? Is not the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the grape harvest of Abiezer?

But Gideon replied,“ What have I accomplished compared to you? Aren’t even the leftover grapes of Ephraim’s harvest better than the entire crop of my little clan of Abiezer?

So he said to them,“ What have I done now compared to you? Is not the gleaning of Ephraim better than the grape harvest of Abiezer?

But he said to them,“ What have I done now in comparison with you? Is the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim not better than the vintage of Abiezer?

So he said to them,“ What have I done now in comparison with you? Is not the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer?

And he said unto them, What have I now done in comparison with you? Is not the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer?

So he said to them,“ What have I done now compared to you? Is not the gleaning of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer?

And he said unto them, What have I done now in comparison of you?[ Is] not the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer?

He said to them,“ Now what have I accomplished compared to you? Even Ephraim’s leftover grapes are better quality than Abiezer’s harvest!

He said to them,“ What have I now done in comparison with you? Isn’t the gleaning of the grapes of Ephraim better than the vintage of Abiezer?

就要同心合意，彼此相爱，灵里合一，思想一致，好让我的喜乐更充足。凡事不可自私自利、爱慕虚荣，要心存谦卑，看别人比自己强。

我亲爱的弟兄姊妹，请记住：每个人都要快快地听，慢慢地说，慢慢地动怒。因为人的愤怒不能成就上帝的公义。

耶和华的灵降在基甸身上，他就吹起号角，号召亚比以谢族的人跟从他。

你们当中谁是有智慧、有见识的呢？请他带着来自智慧的谦和，在善行上表现出来。但如果你们心怀苦毒的嫉妒和自私的野心，就不要自夸说有智慧，也不要违背真理去撒谎。这种智慧并非来自天上，而是从世俗、私欲和魔鬼来的。哪里有嫉妒和自私的野心，哪里就会有混乱和各样的恶事。但从天上来的智慧首先是纯洁，然后是爱好和平、温良柔顺、充满怜悯、多结善果、不存偏见、没有虚伪。使人和睦的人撒下和平的种子，必收获仁义的果实。

因为全部的律法可以总结成一句话：“要爱邻如己”。你们要谨慎，如果你们相咬相吞，恐怕会同归于尽。

爱是恒久忍耐，又有恩慈；爱是不嫉妒，不自吹自擂，不骄傲自大，不轻浮无礼，不自私自利，不轻易动怒，不怀怨记恨，不喜爱不义，只喜爱真理；凡事能包容，凡事有信心，凡事有盼望，凡事能忍耐。

一天，耶和华的天使来到俄弗拉，坐在亚比以谢族人约阿施的橡树下。约阿施的儿子基甸因为要躲避米甸人，正躲在榨酒池里打麦子。
