Judges 2
1 And he went up [the] angel of Yahweh from Gilgal to Bokim. And he said I brought up you from Egypt and I brought you into the land which I swore to ancestors your and I said not I will break covenant my with you for ever.
Gbe ɖeka la, Mawudɔla aɖe tso Gilgal yi Bokim eye wògblɔ na Israelviwo be, “Mekplɔ mi tso Egiptenyigba dzi va anyigba si ŋugbe medo na mia tɔgbuiwo la dzi. Megblɔ na mi bena, nyemagbe nubabla si mewɔ kpli mi la dzi wɔwɔ o,
2 And you not you must make a covenant to [the] inhabitants of the land this altars their you will pull down! and not you have listened to voice my what? this have you done.
ne miawɔ ɖeka kple ame siwo le anyigba sia dzi o. Megagblɔ na mi be, miagbã woƒe vɔsamlekpuiwo, ke nu ka ta mieɖo tom o?
3 And also I say not I will drive out them from before you and they will become for you sides and gods their they will become for you a snare.
Esi miegbe míaƒe nubabla la dzi wɔwɔ ta la, nubabla la megabla nye hã o eya ta nyemagado ŋugbe be matsrɔ̃ dukɔ siwo le miaƒe anyigba dzi o, ke boŋ woanye ŋu anɔ axadame na mi eye woƒe mawuwo anye tetekpɔ na mi ɣe sia ɣi.”
4 And it was when spoke [the] angel of Yahweh the words these to all [the] people of Israel and they lifted up the people voice their and they wept.
Esi Israelviwo se nya sia la, wofa avi hoo.
5 And they called [the] name of the place that Bokim and they sacrificed there to Yahweh.
Ale wona ŋkɔ teƒe ma be Bokim si gɔmee nye “Avifaƒe” eye wosa vɔ na Yehowa.
6 And he sent away Joshua the people and they went [the] people of Israel everyone to own inheritance his to take possession of the land.
Esi Yosua ɖe asi le dukɔa ŋu la, ame sia ame yi ɖe eƒe domenyinu si nye anyigba si wòxɔ la dzi.
7 And they served the people Yahweh all [the] days of Joshua and all - [the] days of the old [men] who they made long days after Joshua who they had seen all [the] work of Yahweh great which he had done for Israel.
Ameawo subɔ Yehowa le Yosua kple ametsitsi siwo nɔ agbe wòdidi wu Yosua la ƒe agbemeŋkekewo me eye wokpɔ nu dzɔatsu siwo katã Yehowa wɔ na Israel.
8 And he died Joshua [the] son of Nun [the] servant of Yahweh a son of a hundred and ten years.
Yosua, Nun ƒe vi, Yehowa ƒe dɔla ku esi wòxɔ ƒe alafa ɖeka kple ewo,
9 And people buried him in [the] territory of inheritance his in Timnath Heres in [the] hill country of Ephraim from [the] north of [the] mountain of Gaash.
eye woɖii ɖe anyigba si ƒe dome wònyi le Timnat Heres le Efraim ƒe tonyigba dzi le Gaas to la ƒe anyiehe.
10 And also all the generation that they gathered to ancestors its and it arose a generation another after them which not they knew Yahweh and also the work which he had done for Israel.
Mlɔeba la, dzidzime mawo katã ku. Dzidzime si kplɔ wo ɖo la menya Yehowa loo alo nu siwo wòwɔ na Israel o.
11 And they did [the] people of Israel the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and they served the Baals.
Tete Israelviwo wɔ nu si nye vɔ̃ le Yehowa ŋkume eye wosubɔ Baalwo.
12 And they forsook Yahweh - [the] God of ancestors their who brought out them from [the] land of Egypt and they went after - gods other some of [the] gods of the peoples which [were] around them and they bowed down to them and they provoked to anger Yahweh.
Woɖe asi le Yehowa, ame si nye wo fofowo ƒe Mawu, ame si kplɔ wo tso Egiptenyigba dzi la ŋu eye wosubɔ dukɔ siwo ƒo xlã wo la ƒe mawuwo. Wodo dɔmedzoe na Mawu elabena
13 And they forsook Yahweh and they served the Baal and the Ashtaroth.
wogblẽe ɖi eye wosubɔ Baalwo kple Astarɔtwo.
14 And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Israel and he gave them in [the] hand of plunderers and they plundered them and he sold them in [the] hand of enemies their from round about and not they were able still to stand before enemies their.
Le Yehowa ƒe dɔmedzoe si wòdo ɖe Israel ŋu ta la, etsɔ wo de asi na adzohawo eye woha wo. Etsɔ wo dzra na woƒe futɔ siwo ƒo xlã wo, ame siwo nu womagate ŋu nɔ te ɖo o.
15 In every - where they went out [the] hand of Yahweh it was on them for harm just as he had spoken Yahweh and just as he had sworn Yahweh to them and it was distress to them exceedingly.
Ne Israelviwo yi aʋa wɔ ge la, Yehowa megakpena ɖe wo ŋu o ale woɖua wo dzi abe ale si wòka atam na wo la ene eya ta wonɔ xaxa gã aɖe me.
16 And he raised up Yahweh judges and they delivered them from [the] hand of plunderers their.
Yehowa ɖo Ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo na wo, ame siwo ɖe wo tso adzoha siawo ƒe asi me.
17 And also to judges their not they listened for they acted as prostitutes after gods other and they bowed down to them they turned aside quickly from the way which they had walked fathers their to obey [the] commandments of Yahweh not they did so.
Ke hã la, womeɖo to woƒe Ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo o, ke boŋ wodze mawu bubuwo yome hesubɔ wo. Womenɔ abe wo fofowo ene o, wotrɔ le mɔ si dzi wo fofowo zɔ le la dzi kaba, mɔ si nye toɖoɖo Yehowa ƒe sededewo.
18 And if he raised up Yahweh - for them judges and he was Yahweh with the judge and he delivered them from [the] hand of enemies their all [the] days of the judge for he had compassion Yahweh from groaning their because of [those who] oppressed them and [those who] oppressed them.
Ne Yehowa ɖo Ʋɔnudrɔ̃la aɖe na wo la, enɔa anyi kple Ʋɔnudrɔ̃la ma, eye wòɖea wo tso woƒe futɔwo ƒe asi me zi ale si Ʋɔnudrɔ̃la ma le agbe elabena Yehowa kpɔa nublanui na wo ne wole ŋeŋem le ame siwo le wo tem ɖe anyi, le funyafunya wɔm wo la ƒe kɔkuti te.
19 And it was - when died the judge they turned back and they acted corruptly more than fathers their by walking after gods other to serve them and to bow down to them not they let drop any of deeds their and any of way their stubborn.
Ke ne Ʋɔnudrɔ̃la ma ku la, ameawo galéa mɔ siwo vɔ̃ɖi wu wo fofowo tɔ la tsɔna, eye wodzea mawu bubuwo yome, dea ta agu na wo hesubɔa wo. Wogbe be yewomaɖe asi le woƒe nuwɔna kple mɔ vɔ̃ɖiwo ŋuti o.
20 And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Israel and he said because that they have transgressed the nation this covenant my which I commanded ancestors their and not they have listened to voice my.
Le esia ta Yehowa do dɔmedzoe vevie ɖe Israel ŋu hegblɔ be, “Esi dukɔ sia tu nu si mebla kple wo fofowo eye womeɖo tom o ta la,
21 Also I not I will increase to dispossess anyone from before them any of the nations which he left Joshua and he died.
nyemaganya dukɔ siwo Yosua metsrɔ̃ hafi ku o la le wo ŋgɔ o;
22 So as to put to [the] test by them Israel ¿ [be] keeping [will] they [the] way of Yahweh by walking in them just as they kept [it] ancestors their or? not.
ke boŋ mawɔ dukɔ siawo ŋu dɔ, ado nye dukɔ, Israel kpɔ, ale be manya ne woaɖo to Yehowa azɔ le eƒe mɔ dzi abe wo fofowo ene loo alo womaɖo toe o.”
23 And he left Yahweh the nations these to not to dispossess them quickly and not he gave them in [the] hand of Joshua.
Ale Yehowa gblẽ dukɔ siawo ɖe anyigba la dzi; menya wo ɖa zi ɖeka to wo tsɔtsɔ de asi na Yosua me o.
