Judges 10
1 After Abimelech died, Tola the son of Puah and grandson of Dodo became the leader to rescue the Israeli people [from their enemies]. He belonged to the tribe of Issachar, but he lived in Shamir [city] in the hilly area where the descendants of Ephraim live.
А после Авимелеха уста да избави Израиља Тола син Фуве сина Додовог, човек племена Исахаровог, који сеђаше у Самиру у гори Јефремовој.
2 He ruled the Israeli people for 23 years. Then he died and was buried in Shamir.
И би судија Израиљу двадесет и три године, па умре и би погребен у Самиру.
3 After Tola died, Jair, from [the] Gilead [region], became the Israelis’ leader, and he ruled them for 22 years.
После њега уста Јаир од племена Галадовог, и би судија Израиљу двадесет и две године;
4 He had thirty sons, and each of them had his own donkey to ride on. They each controlled a different town in [the] Gilead [region]. That region is still named ‘The Towns of Jair’.
И имаше тридесет синова, који јахаху на тридесеторо магаради, и имаху тридесет градова, који се зову села Јаирова до данас и јесу у земљи Галадовој.
5 When Jair died, he was buried in Kamon [city].
И умре Јаир, и би погребен у Камону.
6 Again the Israelis did things that Yahweh said were wrong/evil. They worshiped [the idols of their god] Baal and [their goddess] Astarte. They also worshiped the gods of the Aram, Sidon, Moab, and Ammon people-groups, and the gods of the Philistia people-group. They abandoned Yahweh and stopped worshiping him.
А синови Израиљеви опет чинише што је зло пред Господом, и служише Валима и Астаротама, и боговима сирским, и боговима сидонским, и боговима моавским, и боговима синова Амонових и боговима филистејским; и оставише Господа и не служаху Му.
7 So Yahweh was very angry with them, and he allowed the Philistia and Ammon people-groups to defeat [IDM] the Israelis.
Зато се разгневи Господ на Израиља, те их даде у руке Филистејима и у руке синовима Амоновим.
8 In that same year, those people started to oppress the Israelis who lived in [the] Gilead [region] on the east side of the Jordan [River]. That was where the Amor people-group also lived. were They caused the Israelis who lived in that region to suffer for 18 years.
А они газише и сатираше синове Израиљеве од оне године осамнаест година, све синове Израиљеве који беху с оне стране Јордана, у земљи аморејској, која је у Галаду.
9 Then the people of the Ammon people-group crossed the Jordan [River] to fight against the people of the tribes of Judah, Benjamin, and Ephraim. They caused the Israelis’ lives to be very miserable.
И пређоше синови Амонови преко Јордана да се бију и с Јудом и с Венијамином и с домом Јефремовим; и би Израиљ у великој невољи.
10 So the Israelis cried out to Yahweh, saying “We have sinned against you. We have abandoned you, and we have been worshiping [the idols of their god] Baal.”
Тада вапише синови Израиљеви ка Господу говорећи: Сагрешисмо Ти што остависмо Бога свог и служисмо Валима.
11 Yahweh answered them, saying, “When the people of Egypt, and the Amor and Ammon and Philistia people-groups
А Господ рече синовима Израиљевим: Од Мисираца и Амореја и од синова Амонових и од Филистеја,
12 and the Sidon and Amalek and Maon people-groups were cruel to you, you cried out to me, and then I rescued you.
И од Сидоњана и од Амалика и од Амонаца, који вас мучише, нисам ли вас избављао кад вапијасте к мени?
13 But now you have abandoned me again, and you have been worshiping other gods. So I will not rescue you again.
Али ви остависте мене и служисте другим боговима; зато вас више нећу избављати.
14 You have chosen those gods [to be the ones that you worship]. So call to them to help you. Allow them to rescue you when you have a lot of trouble!”
Идите и вичите оне богове које сте изабрали, нека вас они избаве у невољи вашој.
15 But the Israeli people said to Yahweh, “Truly we have sinned. Punish us in whatever way you wish to, but please rescue us now!”
А синови Израиљеви рекоше Господу: Сагрешисмо; чини с нама шта Ти је драго, само нас сада избави.
16 Then the Israelis threw away the [idols of the] gods that belonged to other people-groups, and they worshiped Yahweh again. He saw that they were suffering very much, and he felt sorry [IDM] for them.
И побацаше између себе богове туђе, и стадоше служити Господу; и сажали Му се ради муке синова Израиљевих.
17 The Ammon people-group gathered to fight [against the Israelis], and they set up their tents in [the] Gilead [region]. The Israeli men also gathered and set up their tents at Mizpah, [which was a city in Gilead].
А синови Амонови скупише се и стадоше у логор у Галаду; скупише се и синови Израиљеви и стадоше у логор у Миспи.
18 The Israeli leaders said, “Who will lead our soldiers to attack the Ammon people-group? The one who will lead us will become the leader of all us who live in this Gilead [region].”
А народ и кнезови галадски рекоше један другом: Ко ће почети бој са синовима Амоновим? Он нека буде поглавар свима који живе у Галаду.
