< Judges 3 >

1 The following are the nations the Lord left and used to test all those Israelites who had not known what it was like to be part of any of the wars in Canaan.
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu amo da Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini gegesu hame ba: i, amo dunu adoba: ma: ne, Hina Gode da Ga: ina: ne fi mogili gadili hame sefasi.
2 (He did so to teach warfare to the later generations of Israel, particularly to those who had not previously experienced it.)
E da Isala: ili fi gaheabolo amo da gegesu hame ba: i ilima gegesu hou olelema: ne, amo fi gadili hame sefasi.
3 They are: the five rulers of the Philistines, all the Canaanites, the Sidonians, and the Hivites living in the mountains of Lebanon from Mount Baal-hermon to Lebo-hamath.
Ga: ina: ne soge fi da soge amoga esalebe ba: i, da haguduga dedei diala. Filisidini moilai bai bagade biyale gala, Ga: ina: ne dunu huluane, Saidonia dunu amola Haifaide dunu (ilia soge alalo da Ba: ile Hemone Goumi asili Ha: ima: de Goumi ahoasu doaga: i. Amo soge da Lebanone Goumi soge)
4 They were left there be to a test for the Israelites, to find out whether the Israelites would keep the Lord's commandments which he had given their forefathers through Moses.
Hina Gode da amo dunu fi ilia Isala: ili dunu ilima adoba: ma: ne, Isala: ili soge ganodini yolesi. Isala: ili dunu ilia da sema amo Hina Gode da Mousesema i, amola e da ilia aowalali ilima alofele olelei, amo ilia fa: no bobogema: beyale adoba: musa: yolesi.
5 They lived among the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da dunu fi eno amo Ga: ina: ne, Hidaide, A:moulaide, Belesaide, Haifaide amola Yebiusaide amo gilisili fi galu.
6 The Israelites intermarried with them, marrying their daughters, giving their own daughters to their sons, and worshiped their gods.
Ilia da gilisili uda lasu hou hamosu amola amo dunu ilia ‘gode’ liligi ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu.
7 The Israelites did what was evil in the Lord's sight. They ignored the Lord their God and worshiped the images of Baals and Asherahs.
Isala: ili dunu da ilia Hina Gode gogolei. Ilia da wadela: le hamosu amola ilia ogogosu ‘gode’ loboga hamoi liligi amo Ba: ile amola Asila, amoma nodone sia: ne gadosu.
8 The Lord became angry with Israel, so he sold them to Cushan-Rishathaim, king of Aram Naharaim. The Israelites were subject to Cushan-Rishathaim for eight years.
Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da Isala: ili fi ilia hou ba: beba: le, ougi bagade ba: i. E da Gusia: ne Lisada: ime (Mesoubouda: imia hina bagade) ili hasalasima: ne, amo ea logo doasi dagoi. E da Isala: ili dunuma ode godoane amoga hina bagade esalu.
9 But when the Israelites cried out to the Lord to help them, he provided someone to rescue them, Othniel, son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, and he saved them.
Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da Hina Godema dinanuwane wele sia: beba: le, E da gaga: su dunu ilima asunasi. Amo da Odeniele, Ga: ilebe eya Ginase egefe.
10 The Spirit of the Lord came on him, and he became Israel's judge. He went to war with Cushan-Rishathaim, king of Aram, and the Lord handed the king over to Othniel, who was victorious.
Hina Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala da ea dogo ganodini aligila sa: ili, e da Isala: ili bisisu dunu hamoi. Odeniele da gegemusa: asili, amola Hina Gode da fidibiba: le, e da Mesoubouda: imia hina bagade amo hasalasili, sefasi.
11 As a result, the country was a peace for forty years until Othniel, son of Kenaz, died.
Isala: ili soge da ode40amoga, olofosu ba: i dagoi. Amalalu, Odeniele da bogoi.
12 But once again the Israelites did what was evil in the Lord's sight, and because they did this the Lord gave power to Eglon, king of Moab, to conquer Israel.
Isala: ili dunu da bu eno Hina Godema wadela: le hamoi. Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da Moua: be hina bagade ea dio amo Egelone amo fidibiba: le, ea gasa da Isala: ili fi ilia gasa baligi dagoi.
13 Eglon had the Ammonites and the Amalekite join him, and then attacked and defeated Israel, taking possession of the City of Palms.
Egelone da A: mounaide dunu amola A: malege dunu gilisili, Isala: ili fi hasalasi. Ilia da Yeligou moilai bai bagade (amo ganodini gumudi sala agoai bagohame ba: i) amo suguli lai dagoi.
14 The Israelites were subject to Eglon, king of Moab, for eighteen years.
Egelone da Isala: ili dunu ilima ode 18amoga ouligisu esalu.
15 Again the Israelites cried out to the Lord to help them, and he provided someone to rescue them, Ehud, son of Gera the Benjamite, a left-handed man. The Israelites sent him to pay the tribute to Eglon, king of Moab.
Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da dinanuwane, Hina Godema wele sia: beba: le, E da gaga: su dunu eno ilima asunasi. Ea dio amo da Ihade. E da ea lobo fofadi amoga hawa: hamosu. E da Bediamini fi dunu Gila amo egefe. Isala: ili dunu da Ihade, amo Moua: be hina bagade Egelone ema udigili su iasu ima: ne asunasi.
16 Ehud had made for himself a cubit long double-edged sword, and he strapped it to his right thigh under his clothes.
Ihade da gegesu gobihei bagade (ea sedade defei da 50sedamida) fe la: idi amola la: idi mei amo hamone, ea lobodafa afoga ea abula haguduga wamo la: gi dagoi.
17 He came and presented the tribute to Eglon, king of Moab, who was a very fat man.
Amalalu, e da su iasu liligi amo Egelonema gaguli asi. Egelone da dunu basului bagade.
18 Then after delivering the tribute he sent home those who had helped carry it.
Ihade da iasu liligi Egelonema ia dagoiba: le, e da dunu amo da su liligi gaguli misi, ilima ilia da ilia moilaiga bu masa: ne sia: i.
19 But when he reached the stone idols near Gilgal, he turned back. He went to see Eglon, and told him, “Your Majesty, I have a secret message for you.” The king told his attendants, “Silence!” and they all left.
Be Ihade hisu da hedofai igi Giliga: le moilai gadenene amoga doaga: le, Egelonema buhagili, ema amane sia: i, “Hina bagade! Na da dima wamolegei sia: sia: mu galebe.” Amaiba: le, hina bagade da ea hawa: hamosu dunuma amane sia: i, “Masa! Ania fawane esalumu.” Amola ilia da huluane gadili asi.
20 Ehud then went over to where Eglon was sitting alone in his cool upstairs room, and told him, “I have a message from God for you.” As the king got up from his seat,
Amalalu, hina bagade hisu da anegagi sesei ea diasu gadodili diala amo ganodini fibi ba: i. Ihade da ema asili, amane sia: i, “Na da Gode Ea sia: dima adomu.” Hina bagade da wa: legadoi.
21 Ehud grabbed his sword with his left hand from his right thigh and drove it into Eglon's belly.
Ihade da ea lobo fofadini amoga gobihei bagade amo duga: le gadole, Egelone ea hagomo damana sone,
22 The handle went in with the blade and the fat closed over it. So Ehud didn't pull the sword out, and the king defecated.
badofale, gadili asi. Amaiba: le, Egelone ea sefe da bosonagala: le gobihei geda amo dedeboi ba: i. Be gobihei da mae duga: gala: le, medene gasaga gagulaligi dialebe ba: i.
23 Then Ehud closed and locked the doors, and escaped through the toilet.
Amalalu, Ihade da gadili asili, diasu logo noga: le ga: sili, fisili asi.
24 After he had left, the servants came and saw that the doors of the room were locked. “He must be using the toilet,” they concluded.
Egelone hawa: hamosu dunu da misini, logo ga: i dagoi ba: beba: le, hina bagade da fonobahadi diasuga asi dagoi, dawa: i galu.
25 So they waited until they couldn't stand it any more, and since he still hadn't opened the doors of the room, they went and found the key and opened the doors. There was their lord, lying dead on the floor.
Ilia da ouesalu, be hina bagade da logo hedolo hame doasiba: le, ilia da gi lale, logo doasi. Amalalu, ilia hina bagade amo hada: i fa: i amoga diasa: ili, bogoi dialebe ba: i.
26 While the servants delayed acting, Ehud escaped, passing the stone idols and on to Seirah.
Ilia da ouesaloba, Ihade da hobea: i dagoi. E da Giliga: le hedofai igi amo baligili, Sia: ila sogebiga doaga: i.
27 When he got there, he blew a trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim, and the Israelites joined him. They went down from the hills, with Ehud leading them.
E da amogawi Ifala: ime agolo sogega doaga: loba, e da Isala: ili dunu gegemusa: gilisima: ne, dalabede dusu. Amalalu, e da Isala: ili dunu bisili oule asili, ilia da agolo soge fisili, umiga sa: i.
28 He told them, “Follow me, for the Lord has handed Moab, your enemy, over to you.” So they followed him down and took control of the fords of the Jordan leading to Moab. They didn't let anyone cross.
E amane sia: i, “Nama fa: no bobogema. Hina Gode da dilia ha lai dunu amo Moua: be dunu, ili hasalasima: ne hamoi dagoi.” Amaiba: le, ilia da Ihade amoma fa: no bobogele, ilia da hano degesu sogebi (amoga Moua: be dunu da Yodane degemusa: dawa: i) amo lai dagoi. Amalalu, ilia da Moua: be dunu huluane fane legei dagoi. Moua: be dunu afadafa da Yodane Hano hame degei.
29 Then they attacked the Moabites and killed around 10,000 of their best and strongest fighting men. Not a single one escaped.
Amo esoha, ilia da Moua: be dadi gagui dunu noga: i amo 10,000 agoane medole legei dagoi. Afae da hame hobea: i.
30 Moab was conquered that day and made subject to Israel, and the country was at peace for eighty years.
Amo esoha, Isala: ili dunu da Moua: be fi ili hasali dagoi. Amalalu, ilia soge ganodini, ilia da ode 80 olofosu fawane ba: i.
31 After Ehud was Shamgar, son of Anath, who killed six hundred Philistines with an oxgoad. He also rescued Israel.
Fa: no, bisisu dunu eno Sia: maga (A: ina: de egefe) da Isala: ili dunu ouligisu. E amola da Isala: ili dunu gaga: i. E da Filisidini dunu 600 agoane amo bulamagau masa: ne sesu ifa, amoga fane legei.
