Jij 10
1 Alò, apre Abimélec te fin mouri, Thola, fis a Puah a, fis a Dodo a, yon nonm Issacar, te leve pou delivre Israël. Li te rete Schamir, nan peyi ti kolin Éphraïm yo.
And after Abimelech, there rose up to save Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir on mount Ephraim.
2 Li te jije Israël pandan venn-twazan. Li te mouri e te antere Schamir.
And he judged Israel twenty-three years; and he died, and was buried in Shamir.
3 Apre li, Jaïr Galaadit la te leve pou te jije Israël pandan venn-dezan.
And after him rose up Jair, a Gileadite; and he judged Israel twenty-two years.
4 Li te gen trant fis ki te monte sou trant bourik. Konsa, yo te gen trant vil nan peyi Galaad, ke yo rele Havvoth-Jaïr jis rive jodi a.
And he had thirty sons who rode on thirty ass colts; and they had thirty cities, which are called the villages of Jair to this day, which are in the land of Gilead.
5 Epi Jaïr te mouri e te antere Kamon.
And Jair died, and was buried in Kamon.
6 Alò, fis Israël yo te fè mal devan zye SENYÈ a, yo te sèvi Baal yo avèk Astarté yo, dye a Syrie yo, dye a Sidon yo, dye a Moab yo, dye a fis Ammon yo, ak dye a Filisten yo. Konsa, yo te abandone SENYÈ a e yo pa t sèvi li.
And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of Jehovah, and served the Baals, and the Ashtoreths, 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 they forsook Jehovah, and served him not.
7 Kòlè SENYÈ a te brile kont Israël. Li te vann yo nan men a Filisten yo ak nan men a fis Ammon yo.
And the anger of Jehovah was hot against Israel, and he sold him into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the children of Ammon.
8 Yo te aflije e te kraze fis Israël yo nan ane sa a. Pandan di-zuit ane, yo te aflije tout fis Israël ki te lòtbò Jourdain an nan Galaad nan peyi Amoreyen yo.
And they oppressed and crushed the children of Israel in that year; eighteen years [they oppressed] all the children of Israel that were beyond the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.
9 Fis a Ammon yo te travèse Jourdain an pou yo te kab, osi, batay avèk Juda, Benjamin, avèk lakay Éphraïm. Sa te fè gwo pwoblèm pou Israël.
And the children of Ammon passed over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; and Israel was greatly distressed.
10 Konsa, fis Israël yo te kriye fò bay SENYÈ a, e te di: “Nou te peche kont Ou, paske vrèman, nou te abandone Bondye nou an pou te sèvi Baal yo.”
And the children of Israel cried to Jehovah, saying, We have sinned against thee, both because we have forsaken our God, and also served the Baals.
11 SENYÈ a te di a fis Israël yo: “Èske Mwen pa t delivre nou soti nan men Ejipsyen yo, Amoreyen yo, fis a Ammon yo, ak Filisten yo?
And Jehovah said to the children of Israel, Did I not [save you] from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines?
12 Osi, lè Sidonyen yo, Amalekit yo avèk Maonit yo te oprime nou, nou te kriye fò ban Mwen, e Mwen te delivre nou soti nan men yo.
The Zidonians also, and Amalek and Maon oppressed you, and ye cried to me, and I saved you out of their hand.
13 Malgre sa, nou te abandone Mwen pou sèvi lòt dye yo. Pou sa, Mwen p ap delivre nou ankò.
But ye have forsaken me, and served other gods; therefore I will save you no more.
14 Ale e kriye fò a dye sila ke nou te chwazi yo. Kite yo menm delivre nou nan tan gwo twoub nou yo.”
Go and cry to the gods that ye have chosen: let them save you in the time of your trouble.
15 Fis Israël yo te di a SENYÈ a: “Nou te peche. Fè ak nou sa ki sanble bon a Ou menm; sèlman souple delivre nou jodi a.”
And the children of Israel said to Jehovah, We have sinned. Do thou unto us according to all that is good in thy sight; only deliver us, we pray thee, this day.
16 Konsa, yo te retire dye etranje sila ki te pami yo pou te sèvi SENYÈ a; epi Li pa t kab sipòte mizè Israël ankò.
And they put away the strange gods from among them, and served Jehovah; and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.
17 Alò fis Ammon yo te rasanble; yo te fè kan Galaad. Epi fis a Israël yo te vin rasanble pou te fè kan an Mitspa.
And the children of Ammon were called together and encamped in Gilead; and the children of Israel gathered together and encamped in Mizpeh.
18 Pèp la, chèf a Galaad yo te di: “Ki moun ki va ouvri batay la kont fis Ammon yo? Li menm, li va chèf sou tout pèp Galaad la.”
And the people, the chief men of Gilead, said one to another, Who is the man that will begin to fight against the children of Ammon? he shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.
