Jij 10
1 Apre Abimelèk, se Tola, pitit gason Pwa, pitit pitit gason Dodo, ki parèt pou delivre pèp Izrayèl la. Tola se moun branch fanmi Isaka. Li te rete lavil Chami nan mòn Efrayim yo.
And after Abimelech there arose to defend Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in mount Ephraim.
2 Li te chèf nan peyi Izrayèl la pandan venntwazan. Apre sa, li mouri. Yo antere l' lavil Chami.
And he judged Israel twenty and three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir.
3 Apre li, se Jayi, moun peyi Galarad, ki te parèt. Li gouvènen peyi Izrayèl la pandan venndezan.
And after him arose Jair, a Gileadite, and judged Israel twenty and two years.
4 Li te gen trant pitit gason ki te moute trant bourik. Yo te gen trant lavil ki te rele yo pa yo nan peyi Galarad. Jouk koulye a yo rele lavil yo lavil Jayi.
And he had thirty sons that rode on thirty ass colts, and they had thirty cities, which are called Havothjair unto this day, which are in the land of Gilead.
5 Jayi mouri, yo antere l' lavil Kamon.
And Jair died, and was buried in Camon.
6 Apre sa, moun pèp Izrayèl yo rekonmanse ankò ap fè sa ki mal nan je Bondye. Yo pran fè sèvis pou Baal yo, pou Astate yo, pou bondye moun peyi Siri yo, pou bondye moun peyi Sidon yo, pou bondye moun peyi Moab yo, pou bondye moun peyi Amon yo ak bondye moun peyi Filisti yo. Yo vire do bay Seyè a, yo sispann sèvi l'.
And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD, and served not him.
7 Se konsa Seyè a fache sou pèp Izrayèl la. Li kite moun Filisti yo ak moun Amon yo mete pye sou kou yo.
And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hands of the Philistines, and into the hands of the children of Ammon.
8 Pandan tout lanne a, moun sa yo maltrete pèp Izrayèl la, yo malmennen yo. Pandan dizwitan, yo t'ap peze tout moun nan pèp Izrayèl la ki t'ap viv lòt bò larivyè Jouden an, sou bò solèy leve, nan peyi Galarad kote yo te rete a.
And that year they vexed and oppressed the children of Israel: eighteen years, all the children of Israel that were on the other side Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.
9 Moun Amon yo te menm rive janbe lòt bò larivyè Jouden an pou y' al goumen ak moun branch Jida yo, moun branch fanmi Benjamen yo ak moun branch fanmi Efrayim yo. Pèp Izrayèl la te nan gwo lapenn.
Moreover the children of Ammon passed over Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; so that Israel was sore distressed.
10 Lè sa a, yo rele nan pye Seyè a, yo di l' konsa: -Nou te peche kont ou, nou te vire do ba ou, ou menm Bondye nou an, n' al fè sèvis pou Baal yo.
And the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, saying, We have sinned against you, both because we have forsaken our God, and also served Baalim.
11 Seyè a reponn pèp Izrayèl la: -Moun Lejip yo, moun Amori yo, moun Amon yo, moun Filisti yo,
And the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Did not I deliver you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines?
12 moun Sidon yo, moun Amalèk yo ak moun Mawon yo t'ap peze nou nan tan lontan, nou te kriye nan pye m'. Eske mwen pa t' delivre nou anba men yo lè sa a?
The Zidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, did oppress you; and all of you cried to me, and I delivered you out of their hand.
13 Men chak fwa, nou vire do ban mwen pou n' al fè sèvis pou lòt bondye. Se poutèt sa mwen pa pral delivre nou fwa sa a ankò.
Yet all of you have forsaken me, and served other gods: wherefore I will deliver you no more.
14 Ale kriye nan pye bondye nou te chwazi yo! Se yo ki pou sove nou lè nou nan ka!
Go and cry unto the gods which all of you have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation.
15 Men, moun pèp Izrayèl yo di Seyè a: -Nou fè sa nou pa t' dwe fè: Ou mèt fè nou sa ou vle. Men, tanpri delivre nou jòdi a!
And the children of Israel said unto the LORD, We have sinned: do you unto us whatsoever seems good unto you; deliver us only, we pray you, this day.
16 Apre sa, yo wete tout bondye lòt nasyon yo te gen lakay yo, yo pran sèvi Seyè a. Seyè a pa t' gen kè pou l' wè jan pèp Izrayèl la te nan lapenn.
And they put away the strange gods from among them, and served the LORD: and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.
17 Lè sa a, lame pèp Amon an sanble, y' al moute kan yo nan peyi Galarad. Lame pèp Izrayèl la menm te sanble tou, yo moute kan yo lavil Mispa.
Then the children of Ammon were gathered together, and encamped in Gilead. And the children of Israel assembled themselves together, and encamped in Mizpeh.
18 Pèp peyi Galarad la ak chèf yo t'ap pale, yonn t'ap di lòt: -Moun ki pral mennen batay la kont moun Amon yo, se li menm ki pral chèf tout moun nan peyi Galarad!
And the people and princes of Gilead said one to another, What man is he that will begin to fight against the children of Ammon? he shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.
