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.
After Abimelech there arose to save Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he lived in Shamir in the hill country of Ephraim.
2 Li te jije Israël pandan venn-twazan. Li te mouri e te antere Schamir.
He judged Israel twenty-three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir.
3 Apre li, Jaïr Galaadit la te leve pou te jije Israël pandan venn-dezan.
After him arose Jair, the 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.
He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkeys, and they had thirty towns, which are called Havvoth Jair to this day, which are in the land of Gilead.
5 Epi Jaïr te mouri e te antere Kamon.
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.
The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of YHWH, and served the Baals, and the Ashtaroth, and the gods of Aram, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the people of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines; and they forsook YHWH, 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.
The anger of YHWH was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the people 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 shattered and oppressed the children of Israel 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.
The people of Ammon passed over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; so that Israel was very 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.”
The children of Israel cried to YHWH, saying, "We have sinned against you, even because we have forsaken our God, and have 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?
YHWH said to the children of Israel, "Did I not save you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the people 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.
Also the Sidonians, and Amalek, and Midian oppressed 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 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 which you have chosen; let them save you in the time of your distress."
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.”
The children of Israel said to YHWH, "We have sinned. Do to us whatever seems good to you; only deliver us, please, 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.
They put away the foreign gods from among them, and served YHWH; and his soul was grieved with 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.
Then the people of Ammon were gathered together, and camped in Gilead. The children of Israel assembled themselves together, and camped at Mizpah.
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 leaders of Gilead, said to each other, "What man is he who will begin to fight against the people of Ammon? He shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead."
