< Judges 10 >
1 After Abimelech there arose to save Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he lived in Shamir in the hill country of Ephraim.
Efter AbiMelech kom upp en annan frälsare i Israel, Thola, en man af Isaschar, Puahs son, Dodo sons; och han bodde i Samir på Ephraims berg.
2 He judged Israel twenty-three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir.
Och han dömde Israel i tre och tjugu år, och blef död, och vardt begrafven i Samir.
3 After him arose Jair, the Gileadite; and he judged Israel twenty-two years.
Efter honom kom upp Jair, en Gileadit, och han dömde Israel i tu och tjugu år.
4 He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkeys, and they had thirty towns, which are called Havvoth Jair to this day, which are in the land of Gilead.
Och han hade tretio söner, ridande på tretio åsnafålar, och hade tretio städer, de kallades HavothJair allt intill denna dag, och ligga i Gilead.
5 Jair died, and was buried in Kamon.
Och Jair blef död, och vardt begrafven i Kamon.
6 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, and served the Baals, and the Ashtaroth, and the gods of Aram, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the people of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines; and they forsook YHWH, and did not serve him.
Men Israels barn gjorde åter det ondt var för Herranom; och tjente Baalim och Astaroth, och de gudar i Syria, och de gudar i Zidon, och Moabs gudar, och Ammons barnas gudar, och de Philisteers gudar, och öfvergåfvo Herran, och tjente honom intet.
7 The anger of YHWH was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the people of Ammon.
Då förgrymmade sig Herrans vrede öfver Israel, och sålde dem under de Philisteers och Ammons barnas hand.
8 And they shattered and oppressed the children of Israel that year. Eighteen years they oppressed all the children of Israel that were beyond the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.
Och de tvingade och förtryckte Israels barn, ifrå det året, i aderton år; alla Israels barn på hinsidon Jordan, uti de Amoreers lande, som i Gilead ligger.
9 The people of Ammon passed over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; so that Israel was very distressed.
Dertill drogo Ammons barn öfver Jordan, och stridde emot Juda, BenJamin, och emot Ephraims hus, så att Israel vardt ganska svårliga förtryckt.
10 The children of Israel cried to YHWH, saying, "We have sinned against you, even because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Baals."
Då ropade Israels barn till Herran, och sade: Vi hafve syndat emot dig; ty vi hafve öfvergifvit vår Gud, och tjent Baalim.
11 YHWH said to the children of Israel, "Did I not save you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the people of Ammon, and from the Philistines?
Men Herren sade till Israels barn: Betvingade ock icke eder de Egyptier, de Amoreer, Ammons barn, de Philisteer,
12 Also the Sidonians, and Amalek, and Midian oppressed you; and you cried to me, and I saved you out of their hand.
De Zidonier, de Amalekiter och Maoniter? Och jag halp eder utu deras händer, då I ropaden till mig.
13 Yet you have forsaken me, and served other gods. Therefore I will save you no more.
Så hafven I dock likaväl öfvergifvit mig, och tjent andra gudar; derföre vill jag intet mer hjelpa eder.
14 Go and cry to the gods which you have chosen; let them save you in the time of your distress."
Går och åkaller de gudar, som I utvalt hafven; låter dem hjelpa eder uti edor bedröfvelses tid.
15 The children of Israel said to YHWH, "We have sinned. Do to us whatever seems good to you; only deliver us, please, this day."
Men Israels barn sade till Herran: Vi hafve syndat; gör du med oss hvad dig täckes, allenast hjelp oss i denna tiden.
16 They put away the foreign gods from among them, and served YHWH; and his soul was grieved with the misery of Israel.
Och de kastade ifrå sig de främmande gudar, och tjente Herranom; och honom ömkade deröfver, att Israel så tvingad vardt.
17 Then the people of Ammon were gathered together, and camped in Gilead. The children of Israel assembled themselves together, and camped at Mizpah.
Och Ammons barn slogo sig ihop, och lägrade sig i Gilead; men Israels barn församlade sig, och lägrade sig i Mizpa.
18 And the people, the leaders of Gilead, said to each other, "What man is he who will begin to fight against the people of Ammon? He shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead."
Och folket, de öfverste i Gilead, sade emellan sig: Hvilken som först begynner till att strida emot Ammons barn, han skall vara höfvitsman öfver alla de som bo i Gilead.
