AND Bil'am the son of Be'or was at that time with Angeas in the battle, and when he saw that Tsepho prevailed over Angeas, he fled from there and came to Kittiym.
And Tsepho and the children of Kittiym received him with great honor, for Tsepho knew Bil'am's wisdom, and Tsepho gave unto Bil'am many gifts and he remained with him.
And when Tsepho had returned from the war, he commanded all the children of Kittiym to be numbered who had gone into battle with him, and behold not one was missed.
And Tsepho rejoiced at this thing, and he renewed his kingdom, and he made a feast to all his subjects.
But Tsepho remembered not Yahuah and considered not that Yahuah had helped him in battle, and that he had delivered him and his people from the hand of the king of Africa, but still walked in the ways of the children of Kittiym and the wicked children of Esau, to serve other elohiym which his brethren the children of Esau had taught him; it is therefore said, From the wicked goes forth wickedness.
And Tsepho reigned over all the children of Kittiym securely, but knew not Yahuah who had delivered him and all his people from the hand of the king of Africa; and the troops of Africa came no more to Kittiym to plunder as usual, for they knew of the power of Tsepho who had smitten them all at the edge of the sword, so Angeas was afraid of Tsepho the son of Eliyphaz, and of the children of Kittiym all the days.
At that time when Tsepho had returned from the war, and when Tsepho had seen how he prevailed over all the people of Africa and had smitten them in battle at the edge of the sword, then Tsepho advised with the children of Kittiym, to go to Mitsrayim to fight with the sons of Ya`aqov and with Phar'oh king of Mitsrayim.
For Tsepho heard that the mighty men of Mitsrayim were dead and that Yoceph and his brethren the sons at Ya`aqov were dead, and that all their children the children of Yashar'el remained in Mitsrayim.
And Tsepho considered to go to fight against them and all Mitsrayim, to avenge the cause of his brethren the children of Esau, whom Yoceph with his brethren and all Mitsrayim had smitten in the land of Kena`an, when they went up to bury Ya`aqov in Chevron.
And Tsepho sent messengers to Hadad, son of Bedad, king of Edom, and to all his brethren the children of Esau, saying,
Did you not say that you would not fight against the king of Africa for he is a member of your covenant? behold I fought with him and smote him and all his people.
Now therefore I have resolved to fight against Mitsrayim and the children of Ya`aqov who are there, and I will be revenged of them for what Yoceph, his brethren and ancestors did to us in the land of Kena`an when they went up to bury their father in Chevron.
Now then if you are willing to come to me to assist me in fighting against them and Mitsrayim, then shall we avenge the cause of our brethren.
And the children of Esau hearkened to the words of Tsepho, and the children of Esau gathered themselves together, a very great people, and they went to assist Tsepho and the children of Kittiym in battle.
And Tsepho sent to all the children of the east and to all the children of Yishma'el with words like unto these, and they gathered themselves and came to the assistance of Tsepho and the children of Kittiym in the war upon Mitsrayim.
And all these kings, the king of Edom and the children of the east, and all the children of Yishma'el, and Tsepho the king of Kittiym went forth and arrayed all their hosts in Chevron.
And the camp was very heavy, extending in length a distance of three days' journey, a people numerous as the sand upon the sea shore which cannot be counted.
And all these kings and their hosts went down and came against all Mitsrayim in battle, and encamped together in the valley of Pathroc.
And all Mitsrayim heard their report, and they also gathered themselves together, all the people of the land of Mitsrayim, and of all the cities belonging to Mitsrayim, about three hundred thousand men.
And the men of Mitsrayim sent also to the children of Yashar'el who were in those days in the land of Goshen, to come to them in order to go and fight with these kings.
And the men of Yashar'el assembled and were about one hundred and fifty men, and they went into battle to assist the Mitsriym.
And the men of Yashar'el and of Mitsrayim went forth, about three hundred thousand men and one hundred and fifty men, and they went toward these kings to battle, and they placed themselves from without the land of Goshen opposite Pathroc.
And the Mitsriym believed not in Yashar'el to go with them in their camps together for battle, for all the Mitsriym said, Perhaps the children of Yashar'el will deliver us into the hand of the children of Esau and Yishma'el, for they are their brethren.
And all the Mitsriym said unto the children of Yashar'el, Remain you here together in your stand and we will go and fight against the children of Esau and Yishma'el, and if these kings should prevail over us, then come you altogether upon them and assist us, and the children of Yashar'el did so.
And Tsepho the son of Eliyphaz the son of Esau king of Kittiym, and Hadad the son of Bedad king of Edom, and all their camps, and all the children of the east, and children of Yishma'el, a people numerous as sand, encamped together in the valley of Pathroc opposite Tachpanchec.
And Bil'am the son of Be'or the Arammiy was there in the camp of Tsepho, for he came with the children of Kittiym to the battle, and Bil'am was a man highly honored in the eyes of Tsepho and his men.
And Tsepho said unto Bil'am, Try by divination for us that we may know who will prevail in the battle, we or the Mitsriym.
And Bil'am rose up and tried the art of divination, and he was skillful in the knowledge of it, but he was confused and the work was destroyed in his hand.
And he tried it again but it did not succeed, and Bil'am despaired of it and left it and did not complete it, for this was from Yahuah, in order to cause Tsepho and his people to fall into the hand of the children of Yashar'el, who had trusted in Yahuah, the Elohiym of their ancestors, in their war.
And Tsepho and Hadad put their forces in battle array, and all the Mitsriym went alone against them, about three hundred thousand men, and not one man of Yashar'el was with them.
And all the Mitsriym fought with these kings opposite Pathroc and Tachpanchec, and the battle was severe against the Mitsriym.
And the kings were stronger than the Mitsriym in that battle, and about one hundred and eighty men of Mitsrayim fell on that day, and about thirty men of the forces of the kings, and all the men of Mitsrayim fled from before the kings, so the children of Esau and Yishma'el pursued the Mitsriym, continuing to smite them unto the place where was the camp of the children of Yashar'el.
And all the Mitsriym cried unto the children of Yashar'el, saying, Hasten to us and assist us and save us from the hand of Esau, Yishma'el and the children of Kittiym.
And the hundred and fifty men of the children of Yashar'el ran from their station to the camps of these kings, and the children of Yashar'el cried unto Yahuah Elohayhem to deliver them.
And Yahuah hearkened to Yashar'el, and Yahuah gave all the men of the kings into their hand, and the children of Yashar'el fought against these kings, and the children of Yashar'el smote about four thousand of the kings' men.
And Yahuah threw a great consternation in the camp of the kings, so that the fear of the children of Yashar'el fell upon them.
And all the hosts of the kings fled from before the children of Yashar'el and the children of Yashar'el pursued them continuing to smite them unto the borders of the land of Kush.
And the children of Yashar'el slew of them in the road yet two thousand men, and of the children of Yashar'el not one fell.
And when the Mitsriym saw that the children of Yashar'el had fought with such few men with the kings, and that the battle was so very severe against them,
All the Mitsriym were greatly afraid of their lives on account of the strong battle, and all Mitsrayim fled, every man hiding himself from the arrayed forces, and they hid themselves in the road, and they left Yashar'el to fight.
And the children of Yashar'el inflicted a terrible blow upon the kings' men, and they returned from them after they had driven them to the border of the land of Kush.
And all Yashar'el knew the thing which the men of Mitsrayim had done to them, that they had fled from them in battle, and had left them to fight alone.
So the children of Yashar'el also acted with cunning, and as the children of Yashar'el returned from battle, they found some of the Mitsriym in the road and smote them there.
And while they slew them, they said unto them these words:
Wherefore did you go from us and leave us, being a few people, to fight against these kings who had a great people to smite us, that you might thereby deliver your own souls?
And of some which Yashar'el met on the road, they the children of Yashar'el spoke to each other, saying, Smite, smite, for he is a Yishma'e'liy, or an Edomiy, or from the children of Kittiym, and they stood over him and slew him, and they knew that he was a Mitsriy.
And the children of Yashar'el did these things cunningly against the Mitsriym, because they had deserted them in battle and had fled from them.
And the children of Yashar'el slew of the men of Mitsrayim in the road in this manner, about two hundred men.
And all the men of Mitsrayim saw the evil which the children of Yashar'el had done to them, so all Mitsrayim feared greatly the children of Yashar'el, for they had seen their great power, and that not one man of them had fallen.
So all the children of Yashar'el returned with joy on their road to Goshen, and the rest of Mitsrayim returned each man to his place.
