Judges 2
1 And a messenger of the Lord came up from Gilgal to Bochim, And he said, I caused you to go up out of Egypt, and I brought you unto the land which I had sworn unto your fathers; and I said, I will not break my covenant with you for ever.
At sumampa ang anghel ng Panginoon sa Bochim mula sa Gilgal. At kaniyang sinabi, Kayo'y pinaahon ko mula sa Egipto, at dinala ko kayo sa lupain na aking isinumpa sa inyong mga magulang; at sinabi ko, Kailan ma'y hindi ko sisirain ang aking tipan sa inyo:
2 But ye for your part shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; their altars shall ye throw down; but ye have not obeyed my voice: what is this ye have done?
At huwag kayong makikipagtipan sa mga taga lupaing ito; inyong iwawasak ang kanilang mga dambana. Nguni't hindi ninyo dininig ang aking tinig: bakit ginawa ninyo ito?
3 And I also have said, I will not drive them out from before you; but they shall be evil neighbors to you, and their gods shall become a snare unto you.
Kaya't aking sinabi rin, Hindi ko sila palalayasin sa harap ninyo; kundi sila'y magiging parang mga tinik sa inyong mga tagiliran, at ang kanilang mga dios ay magiging silo sa inyo.
4 And it came to pass, when the messenger of the Lord spoke these words unto all the children of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
At nangyari, pagkasalita ng anghel ng Panginoon ng mga salitang ito sa lahat ng mga anak ni Israel, na inilakas ng bayan ang kanilang tinig at umiyak.
5 And they called the name of that place, Bochim; and they sacrificed there unto the Lord.
At kanilang tinawag ang pangalan ng dakong yaon na Bochim; at sila'y naghain doon sa Panginoon.
6 And when Joshua had let the people go, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to take possession of the land.
Nang mapayaon nga ni Josue ang bayan, pumaroon ang mga anak ni Israel, bawa't isa, sa kaniyang mana, upang ariin ang lupa.
7 And the people served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that lived many days after Joshua, who had seen all the great deeds of the Lord, which he had done for Israel.
At naglingkod ang bayan sa Panginoon sa lahat ng mga araw ni Josue, at sa lahat ng mga araw ng mga matandang natirang nabuhay kay Josue, na nakakita ng mga dakilang gawa ng Panginoon, na kaniyang ginawa sa Israel.
8 Then died Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, being one hundred and ten years old.
At si Josue na anak ni Nun, na lingkod ng Panginoon, ay namatay, na may isang daan at sangpung taon ang gulang.
9 And they buried him on the border of his inheritance in Timnath-cheres, in the mountain of Ephraim, on the north side of mount Ga'ash.
At kanilang inilibing siya sa hangganan ng kaniyang mana, sa Timnath-heres, sa lupaing maburol ng Ephraim, sa hilagaan ng bundok Gaas.
10 And also all that generation were gathered unto their fathers; and there arose another generation after them, who knew not the Lord, and likewise not the deeds which he had done for Israel.
At ang buong lahing yaon ay nalakip din sa kanilang mga magulang; at doo'y may ibang lahing bumangon pagkamatay nila, na hindi nakilala ang Panginoon, ni ang mga gawa na kaniyang ginawa sa Israel.
11 And the children of Israel did the evil in the eyes of the Lord, and served the Be'alim:
At ginawa ng mga anak ni Israel ang masama sa paningin ng Panginoon, at naglingkod sa mga Baal:
12 And they forsook the Lord the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and they went after other gods, of the gods of the nations that were round about them, and they bowed themselves unto them, and incensed the Lord.
At kanilang pinabayaan ang Panginoon, ang Dios ng kanilang mga magulang, na naglabas sa kanila sa lupain ng Egipto, at sumunod sa ibang mga dios, sa mga dios ng mga bayan na nasa palibot nila, at sila'y yumukod sa mga yaon: at kanilang minungkahi ang Panginoon sa galit.
13 And they forsook the Lord, and served Baal and 'Ashtaroth.
At kanilang pinabayaan ang Panginoon, at naglingkod kay Baal at kay Astaroth.
14 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of spoilers who spoiled them, and he sold them into the hand of their enemies round about, and they were not able any longer to stand before their enemies.
At ang galit ng Panginoon ay nagalab laban sa Israel, at kaniyang ibinigay sila sa kamay ng mga mangloloob na lumoob sa kanila; at kaniyang ipinagbili sila sa mga kamay ng kanilang mga kaaway sa palibot, na anopa't sila'y hindi makatayong maluwat sa harap ng kanilang mga kaaway.
15 Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord had spoken, and as the Lord had sworn unto them: and they were greatly distressed.
Saan man sila yumaon, ang kamay ng Panginoon ay laban sa kanila sa ikasasama nila, gaya ng sinalita ng Panginoon, at gaya ng isinumpa sa kanila ng Panginoon: sila'y nagipit na mainam.
16 And the Lord raised up judges, and they delivered them out of the hand of those that spoiled them.
At nagbangon ang Panginoon ng mga hukom, na nagligtas sa kanila sa kamay niyaong mga lumoloob sa kanila.
17 But also unto their judges they did not hearken; but they went astray after other gods, and bowed themselves unto them: they turned quickly out of the way which their fathers had walked in, to obey the commandments of the Lord; they did not so.
At gayon ma'y hindi nila dininig ang kanilang mga hukom: sapagka't sila'y sumamba sa ibang mga dios, at kanilang niyukuran ang mga yaon: sila'y nagpakaligaw na madali sa daan na nilakaran ng kanilang mga magulang, na sumunod ng mga utos ng Panginoon; nguni't hindi sila gumawa ng gayon.
18 And when the Lord raised them up judges, then was the Lord with the judge, and he delivered them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for the Lord bethought himself because of their groaning by reason of those that oppressed them and ill-treated them.
At nang ipagbangon sila ng Panginoon ng mga hukom, ang Panginoon ay suma hukom, at iniligtas sila sa kamay ng kanilang mga kaaway sa lahat ng mga araw ng hukom: sapagka't nagsisi ang Panginoon dahil sa kanilang daing, dahil doon sa mga pumighati sa kanila at nagpakalupit sa kanila.
19 And it came to pass, when the judge died, that they returned, and became more corrupt than their fathers, in going after other gods to serve them, and to bow down unto them: they omitted nothing from their doings, and from their stubborn way.
Nguni't nangyari pagkamatay ng hukom, na sila'y tumalikod at lalong sumama kay sa kanilang mga magulang sa pagsunod sa ibang mga dios, upang maglingkod sa kanila, at yumukod sa kanila; sila'y hindi naglikat sa kanilang mga gawa, ni sa kanilang tampalasang lakad.
20 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel; and he said, For the cause that this people have transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice:
At ang galit ng Panginoon ay nagalab laban sa Israel; at kaniyang sinabi, Sapagka't sinalangsang ng bansang ito ang aking tipan na aking iniutos sa kanilang mga magulang, at hindi dininig ang aking tinig;
21 So will I also for my part not drive out henceforth any man from before them out of the nations which Joshua left when he died;
Hindi ko na naman palalayasin pa sa harap nila ang sinoman ng mga bansang iniwan ni Josue nang siya'y mamatay;
22 In order to prove through them the Israelites, whether they will keep the way of the Lord, to walk therein, as their fathers did keep it, or not.
Upang sa pamamagitan nila'y aking masubok ang Israel, kung kanilang susundin o hindi ang daan ng Panginoon upang lakaran nila, na gaya ng inilakad ng kanilang mga magulang.
23 And thus did the Lord leave these nations, so as not to drive them out speedily; and he delivered them not into the hand of Joshua.
Kaya't iniwan ng Panginoon ang mga bansang yaon, na hindi niya pinalayas silang biglaan; ni ibinigay sila sa kamay ni Josue.
