Judges 10
1 After the time of Abimelech, a man of Issachar, Tola son of Puah, the son of Dodo, rose up to save Israel. He lived in Shamir, in the hill country of Ephraim.
Bangʼ loch Abimelek ja-Isakar, Tola wuod Pua, ma wuod Dodo, nowuok mondo ores jo-Israel. Nodak Shamir, e piny got mar Efraim.
2 Tola judged Israel twenty-three years, and when he died, he was buried in Shamir.
Notelo ne Israel kuom higni piero ariyo gadek; eka notho, kendo noyike Shamir.
3 Tola was followed by Jair the Gileadite, who judged Israel twenty-two years.
Noluwe gi Jair ma ja-Gilead, ma notelo ne Israel kuom higni piero ariyo gariyo.
4 He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkeys. And they had thirty towns in the land of Gilead, which to this day are called Havvoth-jair.
Ne en-gi yawuowi piero adek mane nigi punde piero adek mane giidho. Negitelone mier piero adek man Gilead, manyaka kawuononi pod iluongo ni Havoth Jair.
5 When Jair died, he was buried in Kamon.
Ka Jair notho, noyike Kamon.
6 And again the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD. They served the Baals, the Ashtoreths, the gods of Aram, Sidon, and Moab, and the gods of the Ammonites and Philistines. Thus they forsook the LORD and did not serve Him.
Jo-Israel nochako otimo timbe mamono e wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye. Negitiyone Baal gi Ashtoreth, kod nyiseche mag jo-Aram, gi nyiseche mag jo-Sidon, nyiseche mag jo-Moab, nyiseche mag jo-Amon kod nyiseche mag jo-Filistia. Bende nikech jo-Israel nojwangʼo Jehova Nyasaye mi ok gitiyone,
7 So the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He sold them into the hands of the Philistines and Ammonites,
iye nowangʼ kodgi. Nochiwogi e lwet jo-Filistia kod jo-Amon,
8 who that very year harassed and oppressed the Israelites, and did so for eighteen years to all the Israelites on the other side of the Jordan in Gilead, the land of the Amorites.
mane osandogi kendo othirogi e higano. Kuom higni apar gaboro negisando jo-Israel duto mane nitie yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jordan e piny Gilead, ma en piny jo-Amor.
9 The Ammonites also crossed the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin, and the house of Ephraim, and Israel was in deep distress.
Jo-Amon bende nongʼado Jordan mondo oked gi jo-Juda, jo-Benjamin kod od Efraim; kendo Israel nenie thagruok malich.
10 Then the Israelites cried out to the LORD, saying, “We have sinned against You, for we have indeed forsaken our God and served the Baals.”
Eka jo-Israel noywak ne Jehova Nyasaye, “Waseketho e nyimi, ka waweyo Nyasachwa kendo watiyone nyiseche mag Baal.”
11 The LORD replied, “When the Egyptians, Amorites, Ammonites, Philistines,
Jehova Nyasaye nodwoko niya, “E kinde mane jo-Misri, jo-Amor, jo-Amon, jo-Filistia,
12 Sidonians, Amalekites, and Maonites oppressed you and you cried out to Me, did I not save you from their hands?
jo-Sidon, jo-Amalek kod jo-Maon nothirou kendo ne uywakna mondo akonyu, donge ne aresou ma ua e lwetgi?
13 But you have forsaken Me and served other gods, so I will no longer save you.
To usejwangʼa mutiyone nyiseche mamoko, omiyo koro ok anachak aresu.
14 Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you in your time of trouble.”
Dhiuru kendo uywagne nyisecheu ma useyiero. Weuru giresu sa ma un e thagruok!”
15 “We have sinned,” the Israelites said to the LORD. “Deal with us as You see fit; but please deliver us today!”
To jo-Israel nowachone Jehova Nyasaye niya, “Wasetimo richo. Timnwa gimoro amora miparo ni berni, to kiyie to reswa sani.”
16 So they put away the foreign gods from among them and served the LORD, and He could no longer bear the misery of Israel.
Eka ne giwito nyiseche manono kendo negitiyo ni Jehova Nyasaye. Eka Jehova Nyasaye nokecho jo-Israel kuom thagruokgi.
17 Then the Ammonites were called to arms and camped in Gilead, and the Israelites assembled and camped at Mizpah.
Ka jo-Amon noluongi mondo oik gige lweny mag-gi kendo gichokre Gilead, jo-Israel to nochokore Mizpa.
18 And the rulers of Gilead said to one another, “Whoever will launch the attack against the Ammonites will be the head of all who live in Gilead.”
Jotend jo-Gilead nowacho kendgi giwegi niya, “Ngʼato angʼata ma nemonj jo-Amon ema nobed jotend jogo duto modak Gilead.”
