Judges 3
1 And these [are] the nations which he left Yahweh to put to [the] test by them Israel all [those] who not they had known all [the] wars of Canaan.
上主保留的民族 這是上主為考驗那些不曉得客納罕一切戰事的以色列人，所留下來的民族，
2 Only so as to know [the] generations of [the] people of Israel to teach them war only which before not they had known them.
叫以色列子民的後代，至少那些以前不曉得這些戰事的人，知道和學習作戰。
3 [the] five - [the] rulers of [the] Philistines And all the Canaanite[s] and the Sidonian[s] and the Hivite[s] [who] dwelt of [the] mount of Lebanon from [the] mountain of Baal Hermon to Lebo Hamath.
這些民族就是培勒舍特人的五個酋長，一切客納罕人、漆冬人和住在黎巴嫩山上，即從巴耳赫爾孟山直到哈瑪特關口的希威人。
4 And they were to put to [the] test by them Israel to know ¿ will they obey [the] commandments of Yahweh which he had commanded ancestors their by [the] hand of Moses.
他們留在那裏是為考驗以色列人，看他們是否聽從上主藉梅瑟吩咐他們祖先的那些誡命。
5 And [the] people of Israel they dwelt in [the] midst of the Canaanite[s] the Hittite[s] and the Amorite[s] and the Perizzite[s] and the Hivite[s] and the Jebusite[s].
以色列子民就住在客納罕人、赫特人、阿摩黎人、培黎齊人、希威人和耶步斯人中間，
6 And they took daughters their for themselves to wives and daughters their they gave to sons their and they served gods their.
竟然娶了他們的女子為妻，也把自己的女兒嫁給他們的兒子，事奉了他們的神。敖特尼耳民長
7 And they did [the] people of Israel the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and they forgot Yahweh God their and they served the Baals and the Asherah poles.
以色列子民行了上主視為惡的事，忘卻了上主他們的天主，而事奉了巴耳諸神和阿舍辣諸女神；
8 And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Israel and he sold them in [the] hand of Cushan-Rishathaim [the] king of Aram Naharaim and they served [the] people of Israel Cushan-Rishathaim eight years.
因此上主對以色列大發忿怒，將他們交在厄東王雇商黎沙塔殷手中，以色列子民遂服事了雇商黎沙塔殷八年。
9 And they cried out [the] people of Israel to Yahweh and he raised up Yahweh a deliverer for [the] people of Israel and he delivered them Othniel [the] son of Kenaz [the] brother of Caleb young more than him.
當以色列子民向上主呼籲時，上主給以色列子民興起了一個拯救他們的救星，即加肋布的弟弟刻納次的兒子敖特尼耳。
10 And it was on him [the] spirit of Yahweh and he judged Israel and he went out to war and he gave Yahweh in hand his Cushan-Rishathaim [the] king of Aram and it prevailed hand his over Cushan-Rishathaim.
上主的神降在他身上，他作了以色列的民長，出去作戰；上主把厄東王雇商黎沙塔殷交在他手中，他的`能力勝過了雇商黎沙塔殷。
11 And it was at peace the land forty year[s] and he died Othniel [the] son of Kenaz.
於是四境平安了四十年。厄胡得民長刻納次的兒子敖特尼耳去世後，
12 And they repeated [the] people of Israel to do the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and he strengthened Yahweh Eglon [the] king of Moab over Israel on for they did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh.
以色列子民又行了上主視為惡的事，上主就強化摩阿布王厄革隆去打以色列，因為他們行了上主視為惡的事。
13 And he gathered to himself [the] people of Ammon and Amalek and he went and he attacked Israel and they took possession of [the] city of the palm trees.
他聯合了阿孟子民和阿瑪肋克人，前來擊敗以色列，佔據了棕樹城；
14 And they served [the] people of Israel Eglon [the] king of Moab eight-teen year[s].
以色列遂服事了摩阿布王厄革隆十八年。
15 And they cried out [the] people of Israel to Yahweh and he raised up Yahweh for them a deliverer Ehud [the] son of Gera [the] Ben-jaminite a man impeded [the] hand of right his and they sent [the] people of Israel by hand his tribute to Eglon [the] king of Moab.
當以色列子民向上主呼籲時，上主給他們興起了一位拯救者，就是本雅明人革辣的兒子厄胡得，他是左右手能兼用的人；以色列子民便派他給摩阿布王厄革隆獻貢物。
16 And he made for himself Ehud a sword and [belonged] to it two lips [was] a cubit length its and he girded it from under to garments his on [the] thigh of right his.
厄胡得預備了一把一肘長的雙刃刀，插在右腿衣服底下，
17 And he brought near the tribute to Eglon [the] king of Moab and Eglon [was] a man fat very.
來到摩阿布王厄革隆前獻貢物─厄革隆原是極肥胖的人。
18 And it was just when he had finished to bring near the tribute and he sent away the people [who] bore the tribute.
獻完貢物以後，就把抬貢物的人打發走，
19 And he he returned from the idols which [were] with Gilgal and he said a word of secrecy [belongs] to me to you O king and he said hush! and they went out from with him all those [who] stood with him.
自己卻由基耳加耳柱像那裏退回，說：「王呀! 我有機密事要對你說。」王說：「退下! 」於是侍立左右的人都退去。
20 And Ehud - he came to him and he [was] sitting in [the] roof chamber of the coolness which [belonged] to him to only him and he said Ehud a word of God [belongs] to me to you and he rose from on the throne.
厄胡得來到他跟前，他正獨自坐在涼台上的房子裏；厄胡得說：「我有神諭告訴你! 」王就從自己的座位上起立；
21 And he stretched out Ehud [the] hand of left his and he took the sword from on [the] thigh of right his and he thrust it in belly his.
厄胡得遂伸左手從右腿上拔出刀來，刺入他的腹部，
22 And it went also the hilt after the blade and it closed up the fat behind the blade that not he drew out the sword from belly his and he went out the hole towards.
柄和刀都刺了進去，脂肪遂包住了刀子，他沒有從肚子裏把刀抽出來；
23 And he went out Ehud the porch towards and he closed [the] doors of the roof chamber behind him and he locked [them].
厄胡得出來到了走廊，把涼台上的門關上，上了鎖。
24 And he he went forth and servants his they came and they saw and there! [the] doors of the roof chamber [were] locked and they said surely [is] covering he feet his in [the] chamber of the coolness.
他出去之後，王臣前來，看見涼台的房門關著，就說：「他一定在涼台上的內室裏便溺。」
25 And they writhed until were ashamed and there! not he [was] opening [the] doors of the roof chamber and they took the key and they opened [them] and there! master their [was] lying [the] ground towards dead.
待他們等煩了，看見沒有人來開涼台上的門，他們就拿鑰匙把門開了，見他們的主子躺在地上死了。
26 And Ehud he escaped until delayed they and he he passed by the idols and he escaped Seirah towards.
在他們猶豫的時候，厄胡得已經逃走，繞過柱像，而逃往色依辣。
27 And it was when came he and he gave a blast on the ram's horn in [the] hill country of Ephraim and they went down with him [the] people of Israel from the hill country and he [was] before them.
他到了那裏，就在厄弗辣因山地吹號角，以色列子民就同他由山地下來，他在他們前面，
28 And he said to them pursue after me for he has given Yahweh enemies your Moab in hand your and they went down after him and they captured [the] fords of the Jordan to Moab and not they permitted anyone to pass over.
對他們說：「你們緊跟著我，因為上主把你們的仇敵摩阿布人已交於你們手中! 」他們遂跟他下去，佔據了摩阿布對面的約但河渡口，不許一人渡過。
29 And they struck down Moab at the time that about ten thousand man every stout [person] and every man of strength and not he escaped anyone.
就在那個時候，他們擊殺了摩阿布人約有一萬，都是壯丁和兵士，沒有一個人逃脫。
30 And it was subdued Moab on the day that under [the] hand of Israel and it was at peace the land eighty year[s].
從那天起，摩阿布驅服於以色列手下；境內平安了十八年。沙默加爾民長
31 And after him he was Shamgar [the] son of Anath and he struck down [the] Philistines six hundred man with [the] goad of cattle and he delivered also he Israel.
在他以後，有阿納特的兒子沙默加爾，他意趕牛棒擊殺了六百培肋舍人，拯救了以色列。
