And Ya’akov (he who holds onto the heel of) said to Shim’on (heard; he who hears; man of hearing) and Levi (Levite) [Joined to] (joined), Youf have troubled me to make me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Kena’ani (low/humbled ones; merchants) and the P’rizi (rustic or belonging to a village): and I [being] few in number, they shall gather themselves together against me, and slay me; and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.
Of Aram (Syria) [exalted], and of Mo’av [Seed of my Father], and of the children of ‘Amon [Inbred], and of the P’lishtim [Immigrants], and of ‘Amalek [Dweller in a Valley], and of the spoil (plunder; prey; booty) of Hadad’ezer [mighty - meaning disputed], son of Rechov [Broad Place], king of Tzovah [station].
And all Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] heard say [that] Sha’ul [desired] had smitten a Garrison (fortification; military post) of the P’lishtim [Immigrants], and [that] Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] also was had in abomination with the P’lishtim [Immigrants]. And the people were called together after Sha’ul [desired] to Gilgal [A Wheel, Rolling].
For the Lord-Adonai (The Father) [greatest above all] had made the host of the Aram [Syrians] to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, [even] the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Wow!, the king of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] has hired against us the kings of the Hitti [Terrorists], and the kings of the Mitzri, to come upon us.
Then they came to G’dalyahu [Yehovah is great] to Mitzpah [watchtower], even Yishma’el [God will hear] the son of N’tanyah [given of Yehovah], and Yochanan [Yehovah has graced] and Y’honatan [Yehovah has Given] the sons of Kareach [bald], and S’rayah [Yehovah is ruler] the son of Tanchumet [consolation], and the sons of ‘Efai [gloomy] the N’tofati [dropping], and Y’zanyahu [Yehovah has listened] the son of a Ma’akhati [pressure (literally, she has pressed)], they and their men.
And Achitofel [my brother i foolish] said unto Avshalom [my father is peace], Go in unto youi father’s concubines, which he has left to keep the house; and all Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] shall hear that youi are abhorred of youi father: then shall the hands of all that [are] with youi be strong.
