Judges 2
1 And a messenger of Jehovah goeth up from Gilgal unto Bochim,
Ary Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah niakatra avy tany Gilgala ka nankany Bokima, dia nanao hoe: Nitondra anareo niakatra avy tany Egypta Aho ka nampiditra anareo eto amin’ ny tany izay nianianako tamin’ ny razanareo homena azy, ka hoy Izaho: Tsy hanatsoaka ny fanekeko taminareo Aho mandrakizay;
2 and saith, 'I cause you to come up out of Egypt, and bring you in unto the land which I have sworn to your fathers, and say, I do not break My covenant with you to the age; and ye — ye make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land — their altars ye break down; and ye have not hearkened to My voice — what [is] this ye have done?
koa aza manao fanekena amin’ ny tompon-tany ianareo, fa ravao ny alitarany; kanefa tsy nihaino ny feoko ianareo; koa inona moa izao nataonareo izao?
3 And I also have said, I do not cast them out from your presence, and they have been to you for adversaries, and their gods are to you for a snare.'
Ary hoy Izaho indray: Tsy handroaka azy eo anoloanareo Aho; fa ho tsilo eo amin’ ny tehezanareo sy ho fandrika aminareo ny andriamaniny.
4 And it cometh to pass, when the messenger of Jehovah speaketh these words unto all the sons of Israel, that the people lift up their voice and weep,
Ary nony niteny izany teny izany tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah, dia nanandratra ny feony ny vahoaka ka nitomany.
5 and they call the name of that place Bochim, and sacrifice there to Jehovah.
Ary ny anaran’ izany tany izany dia nataony hoe Bokima; ary namono zavatra teo izy hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah.
6 And Joshua sendeth the people away, and the sons of Israel go, each to his inheritance, to possess the land;
Ary rehefa nampodin’ i Josoa ny vahoaka, dia nandeha ho any amin’ ny lovany avy ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra handova ny tany.
7 and the people serve Jehovah all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who prolonged days after Joshua, who saw all the great work of Jehovah which He did to Israel.
Ary nanompo an’ i Jehovah ny vahoaka tamin’ ny andro rehetra niainan’ i Josoa sy tamin’ ny andro rehetra niainan’ ny loholona izay velona taorian’ i Josoa, dia ireo izay efa nahita ny asa lehibe rehetra nataon’ i Jehovah ho an’ ny Isiraely.
8 And Joshua son of Nun, servant of Jehovah, dieth, a son of a hundred and ten years,
Ary maty Josoa, zanak’ i Nona, mpanompon’ i Jehovah, rehefa folo amby zato taona ny androny.
9 and they bury him in the border of his inheritance, in Timnath-Heres, in the hill-country of Ephraim, on the north of mount Gaash;
Dia nalevina tao anatin’ ny fari-tanin’ ny lovany izy, dia tao Timnata-heresa, any amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima, avaratry ny tendrombohitra Gasa.
10 and also all that generation have been gathered unto their fathers, and another generation riseth after them who have not known Jehovah, and even the work which He hath done to Israel.
Ary izany taranaka rehetra izany koa dia voangona any amin’ ny razany; ary taranaka hafa, izay tsy nahalala an’ i Jehovah na ny asa efa nataony ho an’ ny Isiraely, no nitsangana nandimby azy.
11 And the sons of Israel do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and serve the Baalim,
Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah ny Zanak’ Isiraely, fa nanompo ireo Bala
12 and forsake Jehovah, God of their fathers, who bringeth them out from the land of Egypt, and go after other gods (of the gods of the peoples who [are] round about them), and bow themselves to them, and provoke Jehovah,
ka nahafoy an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, Izay nitondra azy nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, ka nanaraka andriamani-kafa amin’ ny andriamanitry ny firenena manodidina azy, dia niankohoka teo anatrehany ka nampahatezitra an’ i Jehovah.
13 yea, they forsake Jehovah, and do service to Baal and to Ashtaroth.
Eny, nahafoy an’ i Jehovah izy ka nanampo an’ i Bala sy Astarta.
14 And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel, and He giveth them into the hand of spoilers, and they spoil them, and He selleth them into the hand of their enemies round about, and they have not been able any more to stand before their enemies;
Dia nirehitra tamin’ ny Isiraely ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah, ka natolony teo an-tànan’ ny mpamabo izay namabo azy izy, ary namidiny ho eo an-tànan’ ny fahavalony manodidina azy ka tsy nahajanona teo anoloan’ ny fahavalony intsony.
15 in every [place] where they have gone out, the hand of Jehovah hath been against them for evil, as Jehovah hath spoken, and as Jehovah hath sworn to them, and they are distressed — greatly.
Na taiza na taiza nivoahany, dia namely azy ny tanan’ i Jehovah ka nampahory azy, araka izay efa nolazain’ i Jehovah sy araka izay efa nianianany taminy; ka dia ory indrindra izy.
16 And Jehovah raiseth up judges, and they save them from the hand of their spoilers;
Kanefa Jehovah nanangana mpitsara izay namonjy azy tamin’ ny tànan’ ireo namabo azy.
17 and also unto their judges they have not hearkened, but have gone a-whoring after other gods, and bow themselves to them; they have turned aside [with] haste out of the way [in] which their fathers walked to obey the commands of Jehovah — they have not done so.
Fa na dia ny mpitsara azy aza dia tsy mba nohenoiny, fa nandeha nijangajanga nanaraka andriamani-kafa izy ka niankohoka teo anatrehany; nivily faingana niala tamin’ ny lalana izay nandehanan’ ny razany nanaraka ny didin’ i Jehovah izy, fa tsy mba nanaraka izany.
18 And when Jehovah raised up to them judges — then was Jehovah with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for it repenteth Jehovah, because of their groaning from the presence of their oppressors, and of those thrusting them away.
Ary rehefa nanangana mpitsara ho azy Jehovah, dia nomba izany mpitsara izany Izy ka namonjy ny olona tamin’ ny tanan’ ny fahavalony tamin’ ny andro rehetra niainan’ izany mpitsara izany; fa nalahelo azy Jehovah amin’ ny fitarainany noho ireo nampahory sy nampalahelo azy.
19 And it hath come to pass, at the death of the judge — they turn back and have done corruptly above their fathers, to go after other gods, to serve them, and to bow themselves to them; they have not fallen from their doings, and from their stiff way.
Kanjo nony maty ilay mpitsara, dia nanao ratsy indray izy mihoatra noho ny nataon’ ny razany, fa nanaraka andriamani-kafa sy nanompo azy ary niankohoka teo anatrehany izy; tsy nitsahatra tàmin’ ny fanaony na tamin’ ny lalana nanaovany ditra izy.
20 And the anger of Jehovah doth burn against Israel, and He saith, 'Because that this nation have transgressed My covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened to My voice —
Dia nirehitra tamin’ ny Isiraely ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah, ka hoy Izy: Satria nivadika ny fanekeko izay nandidiako ny razany ity firenena ity ka tsy nihaino ny feoko,
21 I also continue not to dispossess any from before them of the nations which Joshua hath left when he dieth,
dia tsy handroaka olona eo anoloany intsony Aho amin’ ny firenena izay tsy mbola resy hatramin’ ny andro nahafatesan’ i Josoa,
22 in order to try Israel by them, whether they are keeping the way of Jehovah, to go in it, as their fathers kept [it] or not.'
mba hizahako toetra ny Isiraely amin’ ireny, na hitandrina ny lalan’ i Jehovah ka handeha amin’ izany araka izay nitandreman’ ny razany izany izy, na tsia.
23 And Jehovah leaveth these nations, so as not to dispossess them hastily, and did not give them into the hand of Joshua.
Dia navelan’ i Jehovah ireny firenena ireny ka tsy noroahiny faingana; sady tsy voatolony teo an-tànan’ i Josoa ireny.
