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 there arose, after Abimelech, to save Israel—Tola son of Puah son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, —and, he, used to sit in Shamir, in the hill country of 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 Shamir.
3 Apre li, Jaïr Galaadit la te leve pou te jije Israël pandan venn-dezan.
And there arose, after him, Jair the Gileadite, —and 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.
Now he had thirty sons, that rode on thirty ass colts, and they had, thirty cities, —they are called Havvoth-jair, until 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 sons of Israel again did the thing that was wicked in the sight of Yahweh, 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 sons of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, —and forsook Yahweh, 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.
So the anger of Yahweh kindled upon Israel, —and he sold them into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the sons 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 enfeebled and oppressed the sons of Israel in that year, —eighteen years, did they this unto all the sons of Israel who were beyond the Jordan, in the land of the Amorites, that was 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 sons of Ammon crossed the Jordan, to fight, even against Judah and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim, —so that Israel was sore 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.”
Then did the sons of Israel make outcry unto Yahweh, saying, —We have sinned against thee, 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?
Then said Yahweh unto the sons of Israel, —Was it not, from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, and from the sons of Ammon, and from the Philistines, [that I saved you]?
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 the Amalekites, and the Maonites, oppressed you, —and ye made outcry unto 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 have, ye, forsaken me, and served other gods, —therefore will I not again save you.
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 make outcry unto the gods whom ye have chosen, —they, must save you, in the time of your tribulation.
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 sons of Israel said unto Yahweh—We have sinned, do, thou, with us, according to all that is fitting in thine eyes, —only rescue us, we beseech 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 gods of the stranger out of their midst, and served Yahweh, —and his soul was impatient of 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.
Now the sons of Ammon were called out, and they encamped in Gilead, —and the sons of Israel assembled themselves together, and encamped in 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.”
Then said the people, the princes of Gilead, one to another, Who is the man that will begin to fight against the sons of Ammon? he shall become head to all the inhabitants of Gilead.
