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 Thola the son of Phua rose up to save Israel, [being] the son of his father's brother, a man of Issachar; and he lived in Samir in 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 died, and was buried in Samir.
3 Apre li, Jaïr Galaadit la te leve pou te jije Israël pandan venn-dezan.
And after him arose Jair of Galaad, 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-two sons riding on thirty-two colts, and they had thirty-two cities; and they called them Jair's towns until this day in the land of Galaad.
5 Epi Jaïr te mouri e te antere Kamon.
And Jair died, and was buried in Rhamnon.
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 did evil again in the sight of the Lord, and served Baalim, and Astaroth, and the gods of Aram, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Phylistines; and they forsook the Lord, and did not serve him.
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 Lord was very angry with Israel, and sold them into the hands of the Phylistines, 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 afflicted and bruised the children of Israel at that time eighteen years, all the children of Israel beyond Jordan in the land of the Amorite in Galaad.
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 went over Jordan to fight with Juda, and Benjamin, and with Ephraim; and the children of Israel were greatly afflicted.
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 the Lord, saying, We have sinned against you, because we have forsaken God, and served Baalim.
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 the Lord said to the children of Israel, Did I not [save you] from Egypt and from the Amorite, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Phylistines,
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.
and from the Sidonians, and Amalec, and Madiam, who afflicted you? and you 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.
Yet you forsook me and served other gods; therefore I will not save you any 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 whom you have chosen to yourselves, and let them save you in the time of your affliction.
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 the Lord, We have sinned: do you to us according to all [that is] good in your eyes; only deliver us 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 the midst of them, and served the Lord only, and his soul was pained for the trouble 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 went up, and encamped in Galaad; and the children of Israel were gathered together and encamped on the hill.
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 princes of Galaad said every man to his neighbor, Who [is] he that shall begin to fight against the children of Ammon? he shall even be head over all that dwell in Galaad.
