士師記 10
1 亞比米勒以後，有以薩迦人朵多的孫子、普瓦的兒子陀拉興起，拯救以色列人。他住在以法蓮山地的沙密。
And after Abimelech Thola the son of Phua rose up to save Israel, [being] the son of his father's brother, a man of Issachar; and he lived in Samir in mount Ephraim.
2 陀拉作以色列的士師二十三年，就死了，葬在沙密。
And he judged Israel twenty-three years, and died, and was buried in Samir.
3 在他以後有基列人睚珥興起，作以色列的士師二十二年。
And after him arose Jair of Galaad, and he judged Israel twenty-two years.
4 他有三十個兒子，騎着三十匹驢駒。他們有三十座城邑，叫作哈倭特‧睚珥，直到如今，都是在基列地。
And he had thirty-two sons riding on thirty-two colts, and they had thirty-two cities; and they called them Jair's towns until this day in the land of Galaad.
5 睚珥死了，就葬在加們。
And Jair died, and was buried in Rhamnon.
6 以色列人又行耶和華眼中看為惡的事，去事奉諸巴力和亞斯她錄，並亞蘭的神、西頓的神、摩押的神、亞捫人的神、非利士人的神，離棄耶和華，不事奉他。
And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord, and served Baalim, and Astaroth, and the gods of Aram, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Phylistines; and they forsook the Lord, and did not serve him.
7 耶和華的怒氣向以色列人發作，就把他們交在非利士人和亞捫人的手中。
And the Lord was very angry with Israel, and sold them into the hands of the Phylistines, and into the hand of the children of Ammon.
8 從那年起，他們擾害欺壓約旦河那邊、住亞摩利人之基列地的以色列人，共有十八年。
And they afflicted and bruised the children of Israel at that time eighteen years, all the children of Israel beyond Jordan in the land of the Amorite in Galaad.
9 亞捫人又渡過約旦河去攻打猶大和便雅憫，並以法蓮族。以色列人就甚覺窘迫。
And the children of Ammon went over Jordan to fight with Juda, and Benjamin, and with Ephraim; and the children of Israel were greatly afflicted.
10 以色列人哀求耶和華說：「我們得罪了你；因為離棄了我們上帝，去事奉諸巴力。」
And the children of Israel cried to the Lord, saying, We have sinned against you, because we have forsaken God, and served Baalim.
11 耶和華對以色列人說：「我豈沒有救過你們脫離埃及人、亞摩利人、亞捫人，和非利士人嗎？
And the Lord said to the children of Israel, Did I not [save you] from Egypt and from the Amorite, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Phylistines,
12 西頓人、亞瑪力人、馬雲人也都欺壓你們；你們哀求我，我也拯救你們脫離他們的手。
and from the Sidonians, and Amalec, and Madiam, who afflicted you? and you cried to me, and I saved you out of their hand?
13 你們竟離棄我，事奉別神！所以我不再救你們了。
Yet you forsook me and served other gods; therefore I will not save you any more.
14 你們去哀求所選擇的神；你們遭遇急難的時候，讓他救你們吧！」
Go, and cry to the gods whom you have chosen to yourselves, and let them save you in the time of your affliction.
15 以色列人對耶和華說：「我們犯罪了，任憑你隨意待我們吧！只求你今日拯救我們。」
And the children of Israel said to the Lord, We have sinned: do you to us according to all [that is] good in your eyes; only deliver us this day.
16 以色列人就除掉他們中間的外邦神，事奉耶和華。耶和華因以色列人受的苦難，就心中擔憂。
And they put away the strange gods from the midst of them, and served the Lord only, and his soul was pained for the trouble of Israel.
17 當時亞捫人聚集，安營在基列。以色列人也聚集，安營在米斯巴。
And the children of Ammon went up, and encamped in Galaad; and the children of Israel were gathered together and encamped on the hill.
18 基列的民和眾首領彼此商議說：「誰能先去攻打亞捫人，誰必作基列一切居民的領袖。」
And the people the princes of Galaad said every man to his neighbour, Who [is] he that shall begin to fight against the children of Ammon? he shall even be head over all that dwell in Galaad.
