< 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.
Sima na kufa ya Abimeleki, ezalaki Tola, mwana mobali ya Puwa, mwana mobali ya Dodo, moto ya Isakari, nde atelemaki mpo na kobikisa Isalaele. Azalaki kovanda na Shamiri, kati na etuka ya bangomba ya Efrayimi.
2 Tola judged Israel twenty-three years, and when he died, he was buried in Shamir.
Akambaki Isalaele mibu tuku mibale na misato; sima na yango, akufaki, mpe bakundaki ye na Shamiri.
3 Tola was followed by Jair the Gileadite, who judged Israel twenty-two years.
Yairi, moto ya Galadi, akitanaki na Tola mpe akambaki Isalaele mibu tuku mibale na mibale.
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.
Azalaki na bana mibali tuku misato oyo bazalaki kotambola likolo ya ba-ane, mpe bazalaki na bamboka tuku misato kati na Galadi. Kino na mokolo ya lelo, babengaka yango « Bamboka ya Yairi. »
5 When Jair died, he was buried in Kamon.
Yairi akufaki, mpe bakundaki ye na Kamone.
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.
Bana ya Isalaele basalaki lisusu makambo mabe na miso ya Yawe; basalelaki banzambe Bala, Asitarite, mpe banzambe ya Siri, ya Sidoni, ya Moabi, ya Amoni mpe ya Filisitia. Basundolaki Yawe mpe basalelaki Ye lisusu te.
7 So the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He sold them into the hands of the Philistines and Ammonites,
Boye, kanda ya Yawe epelaki likolo ya Isalaele, mpe Yawe akabaki bango na maboko ya bato ya Filisitia mpe ya bato ya Amoni.
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.
Mibu zomi na mwambe, banyokolaki bana nyonso ya Isalaele oyo bazalaki kovanda na ngambo mosusu ya Yordani, mokili ya bato ya Amori, kati na Galadi.
9 The Ammonites also crossed the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin, and the house of Ephraim, and Israel was in deep distress.
Bato ya Amoni mpe bakatisaki na ngambo ya Yordani mpo na kobundisa libota ya Yuda, ya Benjame mpe ya Efrayimi. Boye, Isalaele akomaki na pasi mingi.
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.”
Bana ya Isalaele bagangaki epai ya Yawe: — Tosalaki masumu na miso na Yo, pamba te tosundolaki Yo, Nzambe na biso, mpe tosalelaki banzambe Bala.
11 The LORD replied, “When the Egyptians, Amorites, Ammonites, Philistines,
Yawe azongiselaki bana ya Isalaele: — Boni, nabikisaki bino te na maboko ya bato ya Ejipito, ya Amori, ya Amoni mpe ya Filisitia?
12 Sidonians, Amalekites, and Maonites oppressed you and you cried out to Me, did I not save you from their hands?
Tango bato ya Sidoni, ya Amaleki mpe ya Maoni banyokolaki bino, boni, bogangaki epai na Ngai te mpo na kosenga lisungi? Boni, nakangolaki bino te wuta na maboko na bango?
13 But you have forsaken Me and served other gods, so I will no longer save you.
Kasi bino, bosundolaki Ngai mpe bosalelaki banzambe mosusu. Yango wana, nakokangola bino lisusu te.
14 Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you in your time of trouble.”
Bokende koganga epai ya banzambe oyo boponaki mpo ete ebikisa bino awa bozali kati na pasi.
15 “We have sinned,” the Israelites said to the LORD. “Deal with us as You see fit; but please deliver us today!”
Kasi bana ya Isalaele balobaki na Yawe: — Ya solo, tosalaki lisumu na miso na Yo. Oyo omoni ete ezali malamu na miso na Yo, sala yango na biso; kasi tobondeli Yo: bikisa biso lisusu sik’oyo!
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.
Bongo bana ya Isalaele balongolaki banzambe ya bapaya kati na bango mpe basalelaki Yawe. Mpe Yawe akokaki lisusu te kotala pasi na bango.
17 Then the Ammonites were called to arms and camped in Gilead, and the Israelites assembled and camped at Mizpah.
Tango bato ya Amoni basanganaki mpe batiaki molako na bango kati na Galadi, bana ya Isalaele basanganaki mpe batiaki molako na bango kati na Mitsipa.
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.”
Bato mpe bakonzi ya Galadi balobanaki: « Moto oyo akobundisa liboso bana ya Amoni akozala mokonzi ya bato nyonso ya Galadi. »
