1:33 The men of Naphtali did not conquer the people living in Beth Shemesh or Beth Anath. 1 They live among the Canaanites residing in the land. The Canaanites 2 living in Beth Shemesh and Beth Anath were forced to do hard labor for them.
1 tn Heb “the people living in Beth Shemesh or the people living in Beth Anath.”
2 tn The term “Canaanites” is supplied here both for clarity and for stylistic reasons.
3 tn Heb “And Gideon came, and, look, a man was relating to his friend a dream.”
4 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the man mentioned in the previous clause) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
5 tn Heb “Look!” The repetition of this interjection, while emphatic in Hebrew, would be redundant in the English translation.
6 tn Heb “It came to the tent and struck it and it fell. It turned it upside down and the tent fell.”
