< Judges 3 >
1 Now Yahweh left these nations to test Israel, namely everyone in Israel who had not experienced any of the wars fought in Canaan.
Ita, imbati ni Yahweh dagitoy a nasion a mangsubok iti Israel, tunggal maysa a saan pay a nakapadas iti uray ania kadagiti gubat a napasamak idiay Canaan
2 (He did this to teach warfare to the new generation of the Israelites who had not known it before.)
(inaramidna daytoy tapno isuro ti pannakigubat kadagiti baro a henerasion dagiti Israelita a saan pay a makaammo idi iti daytoy):
3 These are the nations: the five kings from the Philistines, all the Canaanites, the Sidonians, and the Hivites who lived in the Lebanon mountains, from Mount Baal Hermon to Hamath Pass.
dagiti lima nga ari dagiti Filisteo, dagiti amin a Cananeo, dagiti taga-Sidonia, ken dagiti Heveo a nagnaed idiay kabanbantayan ti Lebanon, manipud Bantay Baal Hermon agingga iti Bessang Hamat.
4 These nations were left as a means by which Yahweh would test Israel, to confirm whether they would obey the commands he gave their ancestors through Moses.
Nabati dagitoy a nasion a kas pangsubok ni Yahweh iti Israel, tapno patalgedanna no agtulnogda met laeng kadagiti bilin nga intedna kadagiti kapuonanda babaen kenni Moises.
5 So the people of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.
Nagnaed ngarud dagiti tattao ti Israel a kaduada dagiti Cananeo, dagiti Heteo, dagiti Amorreo, dagiti Perezzeo, dagiti Heveo, ken dagiti Jebuseo.
6 Their daughters they took to be their wives, and their own daughters they gave to their sons, and they served their gods.
Innalada dagiti annakda a babbai tapno agbalin nga assawada, ken intedda dagiti bukodda nga annak a babbai kadagiti annakda a lallaki, ket nagserbida kadagiti diosda.
7 The people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh and forgot Yahweh their God. They worshiped the Baals and the Asherahs.
Inaramid dagiti tattao ti Israel ti dakes iti imatang ni Yahweh ken linipatda ni Yahweh a Diosda. Nagdayawda kadagiti Baal ken Asera.
8 Therefore, the anger of Yahweh was set on fire against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Cushan-Rishathaim king of Aram Naharaim. The people of Israel served Cushan-Rishathaim for eight years.
Ngarud, simged ti unget ni Yahweh iti Israel, ket inlakona ida iti ima ni Cusa Risathaim nga ari ti Aram Naharaim. Nagserbi dagiti tattao ti Israel kenni Cusa Risataim iti las-ud ti walo a tawen.
9 When the people of Israel called out to Yahweh, Yahweh raised up someone who would come to help the people of Israel, and who would rescue them: Othniel son of Kenaz (Caleb's younger brother).
Idi immawag dagiti tattao ti Israel kenni Yahweh, nangisaad ni Yahweh iti maysa a tao nga umay mangtulong kadagiti tattao ti Israel, ken mangispal kadakuada: ni Otniel nga anak ni Kenaz (adingen ni Caleb).
10 Yahweh's Spirit empowered him, and he judged Israel and he went out to war. Yahweh gave him victory over Cushan-Rishathaim king of Aram. The hand of Othniel defeated Cushan-Rishathaim.
Pinapigsa isuna iti Espiritu ni Yahweh, ket nagbalin isuna nga ukom iti Israel ket napan nakigubat isuna. Inted ni Yahweh kenkuana ti panagballigi kenni Cusan Risataim nga ari ti Aram. Ti pannakabalin ni Otniel ti nangparmek kenni Cusan Rasataim.
11 The land had peace for forty years. Then Othniel son of Kenaz died.
Naaddan iti kappia ti daga iti las-ud ti uppat a pulo a tawen. Kalpasanna, natay ni Otniel nga anak ni Kenaz.
12 After that, the Israelites again did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and Yahweh gave strength to Eglon king of Moab to overpower the Israelites.
Nagsukir manen dagiti tattao ti Israel kenni Yahweh babaen iti panangar-aramidda kadagiti dakes a banbanag, ket nakitana ti inaramidda. Isu a pinabileg ni Yahweh ni Eglon nga ari ti Moab idi rinautna ti Israel, gapu ta nagaramid ti Israel kadagiti dakes a banbanag, ken nakita ni Yahweh ida.
13 Eglon joined with the Ammonites and the Amalekites and they went and defeated Israel, and they took possession of the City of Palms.
Kimmadua ni Eglon kadagiti Ammonita ken Amalekita ket napanda ken pinarmekda ti Israel, ket tinagikuada ti Siudad dagiti Palma.
14 The people of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab for eighteen years.
Nagserbi dagiti tattao ti Israel kenni Eglon nga ari ti Moab iti las-ud iti sangapulo ket walo a tawen.
15 When the people of Israel called out to Yahweh, Yahweh raised up someone who would help them, Ehud son of Gera, a Benjamite, a left-handed man. The people of Israel sent him, with their tribute payment, to Eglon king of Moab.
Ngem idi immawag dagiti tattao ti Israel kenni Yahweh, nangisaad ni Yahweh iti maysa a tao a tumulong kadakuada, ni Ehud nga anak ni Gera, maysa a lalaki manipud iti tribu ti Benjamin, ken maysa a lalaki a kattigid. Imbaon isuna dagiti tattao ti Israel nga awitna ti bayadda a buis kenni Eglon nga ari ti Moab.
16 Ehud made himself a sword that had two edges, one cubit in length; he strapped it on under his clothing on his right thigh.
Nangaramid ni Ehud iti kampilanna a dua ti tademna, maysa a kubiko ti kaatiddugna; intalina daytoy iti akin-kannawan a luppona iti uneg ti pagan-anayna.
17 He gave the tribute payment to King Eglon of Moab. (Now Eglon was a very fat man.)
Intedna ti bayad a buis kenni Ari Eglon ti Moab. (Ni Eglon ket maysa a nalukmeg a tao.)
18 After Ehud had presented the tribute payment, he left with those who had carried it in.
Kalpasan a naidatag ni Ehud ti buis a bayad kenni Eglon, pimmanaw isuna a kaduana dagiti nangiyuneg iti daytoy.
19 As for Ehud himself, however, when he reached the place where the carved images were made near Gilgal, he turned and went back, and he said, “I have a secret message for you, my king.” Eglon said, “Silence!” So all those serving him left the room.
Nupay kasta, idi nadanon ni Ehud ti lugar a pagaramidan kadagiti nakitikitan nga imahe iti asideg ti Gilgal, timmalikud isuna ket nagsubli, ken kinunana, “Adda iti palimed a mensahek kenka, o arik.” Kinuna ni Eglon, “Talna!” Isu pimmanaw iti siled dagiti amin nga agserserbi kenkuana.
20 Ehud came to him. The king was sitting by himself, alone in the coolness of the upper room. Ehud said, “I have a message from God for you.” The king got up out of his seat.
Napan ni Ehud kenkuana. Agtugtugaw idi ti ari nga agmaymaysa iti kinalamiis iti akin-ngato a siled. Kinuna ni Ehud, “Adda iti mensahek para kenka manipud iti Dios.” Timmakder ti ari manipud iti tugawna.
21 Ehud reached with his left hand and took the sword from his right thigh, and he stabbed it into the king's body.
Innala ni Ehud ti kampilanna babaen iti kannigid nga imana manipud iti makin-kannawan a luppona, ket induyokna daytoy iti bagi ti ari.
22 The hilt of the sword also went into him following the blade. The tip of the sword came out of his back and the fat closed over it, for Ehud did not pull the sword out of his belly.
Ket simrek pay ti putan ti kampilan kalpasan iti tademna, simmalput ti murdongna iti bukotna, ket tininep iti kinalukmegna ti tadem, ta saan nga inuksot ni Ehud ti kampilan manipud iti bagina.
23 Then Ehud went out on the porch and closed the doors of the upper room behind him and locked them.
Kalpasanna, rimuar ni Ehud iti bangsal ket inrekepna dagiti ruangan iti akin-ngato a siled iti likudanna sana inkandado dagitoy.
24 After Ehud had gone, the king's servants came; they saw that the doors of the upper room were locked, so they thought, “Surely he is relieving himself in the coolness of the upper room.”
Idi nakapanaw ni Ehud, immay dagiti adipen ti ari; nakitada a nakakandado dagiti ruangan ti akin-ngato a siled, isu nga impagarupda, “Pudno nga agin-inana isuna iti kinalamiis iti akin-ngato a siled.”
25 They were growing more concerned until they felt they were neglecting their duty when the king still did not open the doors to the upper room. So they took the key and opened them, and there lay their master, fallen to the floor, dead.
Ad-adda a naseknanda agingga a nariknada a nabaybay-anda ti pagrebbenganda idi saan latta a linukatan ti ari dagiti ruangan ti akin-ngato a siled. Isu nga innalada ti tulbek ket linukatanda dagitoy, ket adda sadiay ti amoda a napasag iti suelo a natayen.
26 While the servants were waiting, wondering what they should do, Ehud escaped and passed beyond the place where there were carved images of idols, and so he escaped to Seirah.
Kabayatan nga agur-uray dagiti adipen, nga agpanpanunot no ania ti rumbeng nga aramidenda, naglibas ni Ehud ket limmabas iti lugar nga addaan kadagiti nakitikitan a ladawan dagiti didiosen, ket naglibas ngarud isuna a nagturong iti Seira.
27 When he arrived, he blew a trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim. Then the people of Israel went down with him from the hills, and he was leading them.
Idi simmangpet isuna, pinagunina ti trumpeta idiay katurturodan a pagilian ti Efraim. Kalpasanna, kimmuyog kenkuana dagiti tattao ti Israel a sumalog manipud kadagiti turod, ket indadauloanna ida.
28 He said to them, “Follow me, for Yahweh is about to defeat your enemies, the Moabites.” They followed him and they captured the fords of the Jordan across from the Moabites, and they did not allow anyone to cross the river.
Kinunana kadakuada, “Surotendak, ta dandanin parmeken ni Yahweh dagiti kabusoryo a Moabita.” Simmurotda kenkuana ket nasakupda dagiti pagballasiwan ti Jordan a batog dagiti Moabita, ket saanda nga impalubos a makaballasiw ti siasinoman iti karayan.
29 At that time they killed about ten thousand men of Moab, and all were strong and capable men. Not one escaped.
Iti dayta a tiempo, napapatayda ti agarup sangapulo ribu a lallaki ti Moab, amin ket napigsa ken makabael a lallaki. Awan ti uray maysa a nakalibas.
30 So that day Moab was subdued by the strength of Israel, and the land had rest for eighty years.
Isu nga iti dayta nga aldaw, naparmek ti Moab babaen iti bileg ti Israel. Ket naginana ti daga iti las-ud ti walo-pulo a tawen.
31 After Ehud the next judge was Shamgar son of Anath who killed 600 men of the Philistines with a stick used to goad cattle. He also delivered Israel from danger.
Kalpasan ni Ehud, ti simmaruno nga ukom ket ni Samgar nga anak ni Anat, a nangpatay iti innem a gasut a lallaki ti Filistia babaen iti kayo a pagabug kadagiti baka. Inispalna pay ti Israel manipud iti peggad.
