Judges 2
1 Yahweh [appeared in the form of] an angel [and] went up from Gilgal to [a place that was later called] Bokim. He said [to the Israeli people], “I brought your [ancestors] up here from Egypt. I led them into this land that I solemnly promised to give to your ancestors. I said to them, ‘The agreement that I made with you, as for me, I will never (break it/say that it is ended).
Hina Gode Ea a: igele dunu da Giliga: le fisili Bougimi sogega asili, Isala: ili dunuma amane sia: i, “Na da dili Idibidi sogega esalu amo fisili masa: ne samogele, oule asili, soge amo Na da dilia aowalali ilima imunu ilegele sia: i, amoga oule asi. Na da amane sia: i, ‘Na da gousa: su hou dilima hamoi, amo hamedafa yolesimu.
2 But as for you, you must never make a peace agreement with the people who live in this land. You must tear down the altars [where they make sacrifices to idols].’ But you have not obeyed me.
Be dilia gousa: su eno Ga: ina: ne soge fi dunuma maedafa hamoma. Ilia oloda amo dilia mugululi wadela: lesima.’ Be dilia da Na sia: hamedafa nabasu.
3 So now, I am telling you that I will not expel [your enemies] as you advance. They will be like thorns in your sides. And [they] will try to trap you [by making you worship] their idols.”
Amaiba: le, dilia da gusuba: i ahoasea, Na da amo dunu gadili hame sefasimu. Ilia da dilima ha laiwane esalumu, amola ilia ogogole ‘gode’ liligi ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu hou da fedege sia: agoane dilima sani dialumu.”
4 After he told that to all the Israelis, the people cried loudly.
A: igele dunu da amo sia: sia: beba: le, Isala: ili dunu huluane da dinanu.
5 They called that place Bokim, [which means ‘weeping’]. There they offered sacrifices to Yahweh.
Amaiba: le, ilia da amo sogega Bougimi (disu) dio asuli. Amogawi, ilia da Hina Godema gobele salasu hamosu.
6 After Joshua sent the Israeli people away, each group went to possess the land that had been allotted to them.
Yosiua da Isala: ili dunu asunasili, ilia da afae afae amo sogebi ilima ilegei, amo gesowale fimusa: asi.
7 They served Yahweh as long as Joshua was alive, and as long as the elders, those who had seen all the great things that Yahweh had done for Israel, were alive.
Yosiua da esalea, amola e da bogoloba, ouligisu dunu da ilia siga Hina Gode Ea Isala: ili fidimusa: gasa bagade hou ba: i, amo dunu amola esalea, Isala: ili dunu da Hina Godema fa: no bobogei.
8 Then Yahweh’s servant Joshua died. He was 110 years old when he died.
Amalalu, Hina Gode ea hawa: hamosu dunu Yosiua (Nane egefe) da ea esalu ode110amo gidigisia, bogoi dagoi.
9 They buried his body in the area he had received [from Moses], at Timnath-Serah, in the area where the descendants of Ephraim lived, north of Gaash Mountain.
Ilia da ea da: i hodo amo hihima ilegei soge amoga uli dogone sali. Amo soge da Dimina: de Sila moilai Ifala: ime agolo soge ganodini, Ga: ia: sie Goumi amoga gagoe (north) dialu.
10 After all the people died who lived at the same time as Joshua [EUP], a group of people grew up who did not know Yahweh, and did not know what great things he had done for the Israeli people.
Amo musa: fifi misi dunu huluanedafa da bogogia: i dagoi. Amola fa: no fifi misi dunu ilia da Hina Gode Ea gasa bagade Isala: ili dunuma fidi amo gogolei, amola Hina Gode hamedafa dawa: i.
11 They did things that Yahweh said were very evil. They worshiped [idols that represented the god] Baal and the goddess Astarte. They worshiped [DOU] the various gods that the people-groups around them worshiped. They stopped worshiping Yahweh, the God their ancestors worshiped, the one who had brought their ancestors out of Egypt. That caused Yahweh to be very angry.
Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da Godema wadela: le hamoi. Ilia da ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ilia dio amo Ba: ile ilima fa: no bobogesu.
Hina Gode, amo da ilia aowalalia Gode, amola E da ili Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne asunasi. Be ilia da Hina Gode yolesili, amo hame lalegagui dunu ilia soge ganodini esalu, amo ilia ‘gode’ liligi amoma nodone sia: ne gadosu. Ilia da amo ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi ilima dawa: le begudubiba: le, Hina Gode da ougi bagade ba: i.
Ilia da Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadosu hou fisili, Ba: ile amola A: sadalode ogogosu ‘gode’ amoma fa: no bobogei.
14 So he allowed people from other groups to raid them and steal their crops and animals. They were no longer able to resist their enemies, and Yahweh allowed all their enemies around them to defeat them.
Amaiba: le Hina Gode da ougi bagade ba: i. Ilima ha lai dunu da ilima doagala: musa: amola ilia liligi wamolamusa: manoba, Hina Gode da ilia logo hame hedofai. E da Isala: ili dunu hame fidibiba: le, ilia ha lai dunu da ilima sisiga: le disi, amo da ili hasalasi. Isala: ili dunu da ilima bu gegemu hamedeiwane ba: i.
15 Whenever the Israelis went to fight [their enemies], Yahweh [MTY] was opposing them, and allowed their enemies to defeat them, just as he had promised he would do. So the Israelis were greatly distressed.
Hina Gode Ea sia: i defele, ilia da gegemusa: ahoanoba, Hina Gode da ilima gegebe ba: i. Ilia da se bagade nabi.
16 Then Yahweh gave leaders to them. These leaders rescued the Israelis from the people who were raiding them.
Amalalu, Hina Gode da bisisu dunu Isala: ili dunuma i. Bisisu dunu da gasa bagade gegebeba: le, ilia da Isala: ili dunu ilia ha lai dunu ilima gaga: i.
17 But the Israelis still would not pay attention to their leaders. Instead, they went to the idols, [acting like] prostitutes [who gave themselves to men who were not their husbands] [MET], and they worshiped those idols. They were not like their ancestors. Their ancestors obeyed what Yahweh commanded, but their descendants quickly stopped behaving as their ancestors had behaved.
Be Isala: ili dunu da ilia bisisu dunu sia: hame nabasu. Ilia Hina Gode Ea hou fisili, eno ‘gode’ liligi ilima hawa: hamosu. Ilia aowalali eda ilia da Hina Gode Ea sema amoma fa: no bobogesu. Be gaheabolo fi dunu da amo hou hedolowane yolesi.
18 Whenever Yahweh gave a leader to them, he helped that leader and enabled him to rescue the people from their enemies. He helped them like that as long as that leader was alive. Yahweh pitied them as they groaned because they were being oppressed and caused to suffer.
Eso bagohame, Hina Gode da Isala: ili dunuma bisisu iasu. Amo bisisu dunu da esalea, Hina Gode da e fidibiba: le, Isala: ili dunu ilia ha lai dunu ilima gaga: i. Hina Gode da ilia se nabasu amola gogonomasu amo nababeba: le, E da ilima asigiba: le, ili gaga: i.
19 But after that leader died, the people went back to behaving in ways even more evil than their ancestors had behaved. They worshiped other gods and bowed down to them and did all [LIT] the things that they thought those gods wanted them to do.
Be bisisu da bogoloba, Isala: ili dunu da ilia musa: wadela: i hou amoma sinidigili, ilia wadela: i hou da ilia ada ilia wadela: i hou baligisu. Ilia da ogogosu ‘gode’ ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu, amola hawa: hamosu. Ilia da musa: wadela: i hou hamedafa yolesi.
20 So Yahweh was very angry with the Israeli people. He said, “These people have disobeyed the agreement I made with their ancestors. They have not done what I told them to do.
Amo ba: beba: le, Hina Gode da Isala: ili fi ilima ougi bagade ba: lalu, amane sia: i, “Amo dunu da gousa: su amo Na da ilia aowalali ilima noga: le nabima: ne sia: i, amo ilia da Na sia: hame nababeba: le, wadela: lesi dagoi.
21 So I will no longer expel the people-groups that Joshua left in this land when he died.
Amaiba: le, dunu fi da Yosiua esalebe eso amoga, Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini ba: i, amo Na da gadili hame sefasimu.
22 I will use them to test the Israeli people to see whether they will do what I want them to do, as their ancestors did.”
Na da wali esalebe Isala: ili dunu da ilia aowalali defele Nama fa: no bobogema: bela: ? amo adoba: ma: ne, Na da ilima ha lai dunu Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini fima: ne yolesimu.”
23 Yahweh had allowed those people-groups to stay in that land. He did not expel them by allowing Joshua [and his men] to defeat them.
Amaiba: le, amo dunu fi da Isala: ili soge ganodini bu esaloma: ne, Hina Gode da logo doasi dagoi. Hina Gode Ea hamobeba: le, Yosiua da amo dunuma hame hasali, amola Yosiua da bogoloba, Hina Gode da amo dunu gadili hame sefasi.
