Ndịisi ise nke ndị Filistia, na ndị Kenan niile, ndị Saịdọn na ndị Hiv, ndị bi nʼelu ugwu Lebanọn, site nʼugwu Baal-Hemon ruo na mbata obodo Hamat.
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.
A ga-esite na ndị a nwapụta okwukwe ụmụ Izrel ma ịmata ma ha ga-edebe iwu Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼọnụ Mosis nye nna nna ha ochie.
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].
Nʼihi nke a, ụmụ Izrel biri nʼetiti ndị Kenan, ndị Het, ndị Hiv, ndị Periz, ndị Amọrait, na ndị Jebus.
6 And they took daughters their for themselves to wives and daughters their they gave to sons their and they served gods their.
Ha lụtaara onwe ha ụmụ ha ndị inyom na nwunye, werekwa ụmụ ha ndị inyom nye ụmụ ha ndị ikom, feekwa chi ha niile ofufe.
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.
Ụmụ Izrel mere ihe jọrọ njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị. Ha chefuru Onyenwe anyị Chineke ha, malite ife chi Baal, na Ashera ofufe.
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.

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.
Ma mgbe ụmụ Izrel kpọkuru Onyenwe anyị, o mere ka Otniel, nwa Kenaz, bilie nʼetiti ha. Otniel bụ nwa nwanne Kaleb nke nta. Ọ bụkwa ya napụtara ụmụ Izrel site nʼaka ndị iro ha.
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.
Mmụọ Onyenwe anyị bịakwasịrị ya, nke mere ka ọ bụrụ onye ikpe ndị Izrel, ọ pụrụ ibu agha. Onyenwe anyị nyefere Kushan Rishataim bụ eze ndị Aram nʼaka Otniel, onye ike ya karịrị nke ya.
11 And it was at peace the land forty year[s] and he died Othniel [the] son of Kenaz.
Sitekwa nʼoge ahụ gaa nʼihu, udo dịịrị nʼala niile iri afọ anọ, mgbe Otniel na-ekpe Izrel ikpe. Nʼikpeazụ, Otniel, nwa Kenaz nwụrụ.
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.
Ụmụ Izrel bidoro ime ihe ọjọọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị. Ya mere, Onyenwe anyị nyefere ha nʼaka Eglọn, eze Moab.
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.
Ọ kpọtara ndị Amọn na ndị Amalek ka ha dịnyere ya. Eglọn bịara buso ndị Izrel agha, nweta obodo Nkwụ, ya abụrụzia nke ha.
14 And they served [the] people of Israel Eglon [the] king of Moab eight-teen year[s].
Afọ iri na asatọ site nʼoge ahụ ka ụmụ Izrel nọrọ nʼokpuru ọchịchị Eglọn, eze Moab.
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.
Ma mgbe ụmụ Izrel tikuru Onyenwe anyị banyere ọnọdụ ọjọọ ha, o zitere ha onye nzọpụta. Aha nwoke ahụ bụ Ehud, nwa Gera, onye sitere nʼagbụrụ Benjamin. Ọ bụ onye na-eme aka ekpe. Ya onwe ya bụkwa onye na-ebugara Eglọn, eze Moab, ego ụtụ niile ụmụ Izrel na-atụ kwa afọ.
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.
Tupu ọ malite ije ya, o buru ụzọ kwadebere onwe ya mma agha nwere ihu abụọ na nzuzo. Ogologo mma ahụ ga-eru ihe dịka site nʼọnụ mkpịsịaka ruo nʼisi mbụ aka. Ehud kekwasịrị mma ahụ nʼapata ụkwụ aka nri ya, yikwasị ya uwe mwụda ya.
17 And he brought near the tribute to Eglon [the] king of Moab and Eglon [was] a man fat very.
O bunyere Eglọn, eze Moab ego ụtụ ahụ. Eglọn bụ nwoke buru oke ibu.
18 And it was just when he had finished to bring near the tribute and he sent away the people [who] bore the tribute.
Mgbe Ehud nyesịrị eze Eglọn ego ụtụ ahụ o ji bịa, o zilagara ndị butere ego ahụ.
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.
Mgbe ọ bịaruru nso nʼobodo Gilgal, ebe arụsị dị iche iche a pịrị apị dị, ọ laghachiri azụ jekwuru eze Eglọn sị ya, “Enwere m ozi m ga-ezi gị, ma ọ ga-abụ na nzuzo.” Mgbe ahụ, eze zipụrụ ndị so ya nọdụ, ka ya na Ehud naanị nwee ike ịnọ kparịa ụka ha na nzuzo.
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.
Ehud bịakwutere ya mgbe ọ nọ naanị ya nʼọnụụlọ dị nʼime nʼelu ụlọeze ya, sị, “Enwere m ozi Chineke sị m zie gị.” Dịka eze ahụ si nʼoche ya bilite ọtọ,
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.
Ehud tinyere aka ekpe ya nʼime uwe ya, mịpụta mma ahụ nwere ihu abụọ nke o kegidere nʼapata ụkwụ aka nri ya. O weere ya mapuo eze Eglọn afọ.
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.
Ọ bụladị isi mma ahụ sooro ihu mma ahụ mibanye nʼime afọ ukwu eze Eglọn. Ọnụ mma ahụ pụtakwara nʼazụ eze ahụ. Ehud amịpụtaghị mma ahụ, kama abụba dị nʼafọ eze ahụ kpuchiri ya.
23 And he went out Ehud the porch towards and he closed [the] doors of the roof chamber behind him and he locked [them].
Ya mere, Ehud pụrụ nʼezi, mechibido ya ọnụ ụzọ niile e si abanye nʼọnụụlọ elu ahụ, kpọchie ha.
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.

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.
Ma mgbe oge dị anya gasịrị ma eze apụtaghị, ha enweghị ike ijide onwe ha ọzọ. Ha weere ọtụghe ụzọ tụghee ọnụ ụzọ ahụ, hụ ebe eze ha tọgbọrọ nʼala, nwụọ.
26 And Ehud he escaped until delayed they and he he passed by the idols and he escaped Seirah towards.
Mgbe ahụ ha nọ na-eche, Ehud gbapụrụ. O sitere nʼebe ahụ arụsị ndị ahụ a pịrị apị dị gbafee, gbaga Seira.
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.
Mgbe o ruru nʼebe ahụ, ọ fụrụ opi ike nʼala ugwu ugwu Ifrem, ndị Izrel sooro ya site nʼugwu ahụ rịda, ya onwe ya na-edu ha.
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.
Ọ sịrị ha, “Soronụ m nʼazụ, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị enyela ndị Moab ndị iro unu nʼaka unu.” Ya mere, ha sooro ya gbadaa, gaa nọchie ụzọ niile ndị Moab nwere ike isi gafee osimiri Jọdan. Ha ekwekwaghị ka onye Moab ọbụla si nʼebe ahụ gafee.
