Judges 3
1 Now these are the nations that the Lord left, to prove by them the Israelites, namely, all those who had not experienced all the wars of Canaan;
Ke ma inge LEUM GOD El fuhlela tuh kutu mutunfacl in mutana in facl sac in srike mwet Israel su tia wi pulakin mweun in acn Canaan.
2 Only in order that the future generations of the children of Israel might obtain knowledge, to teach them war; but only such as before had learned nothing thereof;
El oru ouinge ke sripa sefanna, in luti kais sie fwil lun mwet Israel ke ouiyen mweun, ac yokna nu selos su soenna wi mweun.
3 Namely, the five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Zidonians, and the Hivites that dwelt on mount Lebanon, from mount Ba'al-chermon unto the entrance of Chamath.
Mwet lula in acn we pa leum limekosr lun mwet Philistia, oayapa mwet Canaan ac mwet Sidon ac mwet Hiv su muta fineol uh in acn Lebanon, liki Fineol Baal Hermon lac nwe ke Innek In Utyak Nu Hamath.
4 And they were left to prove by them the Israelites, to know whether they would hearken unto the commandments of the Lord, which he had commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
Ma inge orek nu sin mwet Israel in srikalos lah elos ac akos ma LEUM GOD El tuh sapkin nu sin mwet matu lalos ah, in pacl lal Moses.
5 And the children of Israel dwelt in the midst of the Canaanites, the Hittites, and the Emorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites;
Na mwet Israel elos oakwuki muta inmasrlon mwet Canaan, mwet Hit, mwet Amor, mwet Hiv, mwet Periz, ac mwet Jebus.
6 And they took their daughters to themselves for wives, and their daughters they gave to their sons; and they served their gods.
Mwet Israel elos payuk nu sin mwet inge ac alu nu sin god lalos.
7 And the children of Israel did [thus] the evil in the eyes of the Lord, and forgot the Lord their God, and served the Be'alim and the groves.
Mwet Israel elos mulkunla LEUM GOD lalos. Elos orekma koluk ye mutal ac alu nu ke ma sruloala lal Baal ac Asherah.
8 Wherefore the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Cushan-rish'athayim the king of Mesopotamia; and the children of Israel served Cushan-rish'athayim eight years.
Ke ma inge, LEUM GOD El mutawauk in kasrkusrak sin mwet Israel, ac El lela tuh Tokosra Cushan Rishathaim lun acn Mesopotamia elan kutangulosla. Mwet Israel elos orekma nu sel yac oalkosr.
9 And the children of Israel cried then unto the Lord, and the Lord raised up a deliverer to the children of Israel, who delivered them, namely, 'Othniel the son of Kenaz, the younger brother of Caleb.
Na mwet Israel elos wowoyak nu sin LEUM GOD, ac el supwala sie mwet in aksukosokyalos. Mwet se inge pa Othniel wen natul Kenaz, su tamulel srik lal Caleb.
10 And the spirit of the Lord came over him, and he judged Israel, and went out to battle: and the Lord delivered Cushan-rish'athayim the king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his hand prevailed over Cushan-rish'athayim.
Ngun lun LEUM GOD tuku nu fin mwet se inge, ac el mutawauk in kol mwet Israel. Ke Othniel el som mweun, LEUM GOD El sang kutangla nu sel fin tokosra lun mwet Mesopotamia.
11 And the land had rest forty years; and then died 'Othniel the son of Kenaz.
Oasr misla in facl Israel ke lusen yac angngaul, na Othniel el misa.
12 And the children of Israel did again the evil in the eyes of the Lord; and the Lord strengthened 'Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done the evil in the eyes of the Lord.
Mwet Israel elos sifilpa orekma koluk ye mutun LEUM GOD. Ke sripa se inge, LEUM GOD El oru tuh Tokosra Eglon lun Moab in ku liki mwet Israel.
13 And he gathered unto him the children of 'Ammon and 'Amalek, and they went and smote Israel, and took possession of the city of palm-trees.
Tokosra Eglon el wi mwet Ammon ac mwet Amalek lain mwet Israel ac kutangulosla. Elos sruokya acn Jericho, su siti in sak palm.
14 And the children of Israel served 'Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.
Mwet Israel elos orekma nu sel Tokosra Eglon yac singoul oalkosr.
15 But the children of Israel cried then unto the Lord; and the Lord raised up unto them a deliverer, Ehud the son of Gera a Benjamite, a man who was lamed in his right hand; and the children of Israel sent by him a present unto 'Eglon the king of Moab.
Na mwet Israel elos sifil wowoyak nu sin LEUM GOD, na El sifil supwala mwet se in molelosla. Mwet se inge pa Ehud, sie mwet lasa, wen natul Gera ke sruf lal Benjamin. Mwet Israel elos supwalla Ehud nu yorol Tokosra Eglon lun Moab, wi mwe takma nu sel.
16 But Ehud made himself a sword which had two edges, of a cubit length; and he girded it under his garments upon his right thigh.
Ehud el tuh sifacna orala cutlass se natul, fit se tafu lusa ac kosroh lac lac, ac el losya fin pupal layen layot ye nuknuk lal uh.
17 And he brought the present near unto 'Eglon the king of Moab; now 'Eglon was a very fat man.
Na el us mwe takma ac som nu yorol Tokosra Eglon, su sie mwet na fact.
18 And it came to pass when he had made an end to offer the present, that he sent away the people who had borne the present.
Ke Ehud el sang mwe takma nu sel Tokosra Eglon tari, na el fahk nu sin mwet ma us ma inge ah in folokla nu acn selos.
19 But he himself returned again from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, I have a secret word unto thee, O King. And he said, Keep silence. And thereupon went out from his presence all that stood by him.
Ac Ehud el welulos, na ke elos sun eot tufahlla ekasr apkuran nu Gilgal, Ehud mukena el forla folok nu yorol Eglon ac fahk, “O Tokosra, oasr sie kas lukma nga ke fahk nu sum.” Na tokosra sac fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal, “Kowos illa!” Na mwet lal inge kewa tufoki.
20 And Ehud came in unto him; and he was sitting in the summer upper chamber, which was for himself alone. And Ehud said, I have a word of God unto thee. And he arose out of his chair.
Ke tokosra sac mukena muta ke infukil oyohu se fin lohm sel ah, Ehud el kalukyang nu yorol ac fahk, “Oasr kas sin God me yuruk in fahk nu sum.” Na tokosra el tuyak.
21 And Ehud stretched forth his left hand, and took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his body.
Ehud el faisak cutlass natul ah ke lac paol lasa liki pupal layot, ac kaskeang nu insien tokosra.
22 And the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed upon the blade; for he did not draw the sword out of his body, and it passed into the fundament.
Cutlass sac wi fung ah tilyang nu insial tokosra, ac kiris uh nokomla nufon. Ehud el tiana faesla cutlass sac lukel, ac mutun cutlass sac sasla fonohl.
23 And Ehud went forth into the ante-room, and shut the doors of the upper chamber after him, and locked them.
Na Ehud el tufokla nu lik ac kaliya srungul uh ac lakiya,
24 He was just gone out, when his servants came; and they saw, behold, the doors of the upper chamber were locked; and they said, Surely he covereth his feet in the summer chamber.
na el som. Ke mwet kulansap elos tuku ac liye tuh srungul uh kaul ac lak, elos nunku mu tokosra el oasr na in lohm fahsr ah.
25 And they tarried till they were ashamed; and behold, he opened not the doors of the upper chamber; wherefore they took the key and opened them: and, behold, their lord was lying dead on the floor.
Mwet inge mutana soano nwe arulana pahtlac. Na ke tokosra sac tiana ikasla srungul uh, elos use key uh sang ikasla, ac elos liye tuh leum lalos el misa oan fin falful uh.
26 And Ehud had escaped while they were tarrying, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped unto Se'irah.
Ehud el kaingla ke pacl se mwet inge srakna muta soano in ikakla. El som alukela eot tufahlla ekasr ah, ac kaingla nu Seirah.
27 And it came to pass, when he was come, that he blew the cornet on the mountain of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the mountain, and he before them.
Ke el sun fineol uh in facl Ephraim, el ukya mwe ukuk in pangoneni mwet Israel nu ke mweun. El kololos ac tufoki fineol uh me.
28 And he said unto them, Pursue after me; for the Lord hath delivered your enemies, the Moabites, into your hand. And they went down after him, and seized on the fords of the Jordan toward Moab, and suffered not a man to pass over.
El fahk nu selos, “Fahsr tukuk! LEUM GOD El sot kutangla nu suwos fin mwet lokoalok lowos, mwet Moab.” Na elos tufoki ac fahsr tokol Ehud, ac elos sruokya acn se ma mwet Moab elos muta we ac akola in tupalla Infacl Jordan. Elos tia lela siefanna mwet in alukela infacl ah.
29 And they smote of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, all lusty, and all men of valor; and there escaped not a man.
Pisen mwet elos uniya ke len sac sun akuran singoul tausin mwet mweun su ku emeet lun mwet Moab. Wangin sie selos kaingla.
30 And Moab was humbled that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest eighty years.
In len sac mwet Israel kutangla mwet Moab, ac oasr misla in facl Israel ke lusen yac oalngoul.
31 And after him was Shamgar the son of 'Anath, who smote of the philistines six hundred men with an ox-goad; and he also delivered Israel.
Mwet kol se tok an pa Shamgar, wen natul Anath. El wi pac molela mwet Israel, ke el sang sak kosroh muta soko mwe lillil kosro ox, ac uniya mwet Philistia onfoko.
