Sog̒u 10
1 Un pēc Abimeleka, Tolus, Dodus dēla Puūs dēls, vīrs no Īsašara cilts, cēlās, Israēli pestīt, un dzīvoja Zamirā Efraīma kalnos.
After Abimelech died, Tola the son of Puah and grandson of Dodo became the leader to rescue the Israeli people [from their enemies]. He belonged to the tribe of Issachar, but he lived in Shamir [city] in the hilly area where the descendants of Ephraim live.
2 Un viņš tiesāja Israēli divdesmit un trīs gadus un nomira un Zamirā tapa aprakts.
He ruled the Israeli people for 23 years. Then he died and was buried in Shamir.
3 Un pēc viņa cēlās Jaīrs, Gileādietis, un tiesāja Israēli divdesmit un divus gadus.
After Tola died, Jair, from [the] Gilead [region], became the Israelis’ leader, and he ruled them for 22 years.
4 Un tam bija trīsdesmit dēli, tie jāja uz trīsdesmit ēzeļiem, un tiem bija trīsdesmit pilsētas, kuras nosauc (par) Jaīra ciemiem līdz šai dienai; tie ir Gileādas zemē.
He had thirty sons, and each of them had his own donkey to ride on. They each controlled a different town in [the] Gilead [region]. That region is still named ‘The Towns of Jair’.
5 Un Jaīrs nomira un tapa aprakts Kamonā.
When Jair died, he was buried in Kamon [city].
6 Tad Israēla bērni joprojām darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, un kalpoja Baāliem un Astartēm un Sīriešu dieviem un Sidonas dieviem un Moaba dieviem un Amona bērnu dieviem un Fīlistu dieviem un atstāja To Kungu un nekalpoja Viņam.
Again the Israelis did things that Yahweh said were wrong/evil. They worshiped [the idols of their god] Baal and [their goddess] Astarte. They also worshiped the gods of the Aram, Sidon, Moab, and Ammon people-groups, and the gods of the Philistia people-group. They abandoned Yahweh and stopped worshiping him.
7 Tad Tā Kunga dusmība iedegās pret Israēli un Viņš tos pārdeva Fīlistu rokā un Amona bērnu rokā.
So Yahweh was very angry with them, and he allowed the Philistia and Ammon people-groups to defeat [IDM] the Israelis.
8 Un tie satrieca un samina Israēla bērnus no tā gada iesākot astoņpadsmit gadus, visus Israēla bērnus, kas viņpus Jardānes bija, Amoriešu zemē, tas ir Gileādā.
In that same year, those people started to oppress the Israelis who lived in [the] Gilead [region] on the east side of the Jordan [River]. That was where the Amor people-group also lived. were They caused the Israelis who lived in that region to suffer for 18 years.
9 Un Amona bērni gāja pār Jardāni un karoja pret Jūdu un pret Benjaminu un pret Efraīma namu, tā ka Israēlim bija ļoti bail.
Then the people of the Ammon people-group crossed the Jordan [River] to fight against the people of the tribes of Judah, Benjamin, and Ephraim. They caused the Israelis’ lives to be very miserable.
10 Tad Israēla bērni brēca uz To Kungu un sacīja: mēs pret Tevi esam grēkojuši, jo mēs savu Dievu esam atstājuši un kalpojuši Baāliem.
So the Israelis cried out to Yahweh, saying “We have sinned against you. We have abandoned you, and we have been worshiping [the idols of their god] Baal.”
11 Bet Tas Kungs sacīja uz Israēla bērniem: vai Es jūs neesmu izpestījis no ēģiptiešiem un Amoriešiem un Amona bērniem un Fīlistiem
Yahweh answered them, saying, “When the people of Egypt, and the Amor and Ammon and Philistia people-groups
12 Un Sidoniešiem un Amalekiešiem un Maoniešiem, kad tie jūs spaidīja, un jūs uz Mani brēcāt?
and the Sidon and Amalek and Maon people-groups were cruel to you, you cried out to me, and then I rescued you.
13 Tomēr jūs Mani esat atstājuši un kalpojuši citiem dieviem, tādēļ Es jūs vairs negribu izpestīt.
But now you have abandoned me again, and you have been worshiping other gods. So I will not rescue you again.
14 Ejat un brēciet uz saviem dieviem, ko jūs esat izmeklējušies, lai tie jūs izpestī jūsu bēdu laikā.
You have chosen those gods [to be the ones that you worship]. So call to them to help you. Allow them to rescue you when you have a lot of trouble!”
15 Bet Israēla bērni sacīja uz To Kungu: mēs esam grēkojuši; dari Tu mums, itin kā Tev patīk, izglāb mūs tikai šo reiz'.
But the Israeli people said to Yahweh, “Truly we have sinned. Punish us in whatever way you wish to, but please rescue us now!”
16 Un tie meta nost no sevis tos svešos dievus un kalpoja Tam Kungam. Tad Viņam palika žēl par Israēla bēdām.
Then the Israelis threw away the [idols of the] gods that belonged to other people-groups, and they worshiped Yahweh again. He saw that they were suffering very much, and he felt sorry [IDM] for them.
17 Un Amona bērni tapa sasaukti un apmetās Gileādā un Israēla bērni sapulcējās un apmetās Micpā.
The Ammon people-group gathered to fight [against the Israelis], and they set up their tents in [the] Gilead [region]. The Israeli men also gathered and set up their tents at Mizpah, [which was a city in Gilead].
18 Tad tie ļaudis, Gileādas virsnieki, cits uz citu sacīja: kas būs tas vīrs, kas sāks karot pret Amona bērniem. Tam būs galvai būt pār visiem Gileādas iedzīvotājiem.
The Israeli leaders said, “Who will lead our soldiers to attack the Ammon people-group? The one who will lead us will become the leader of all us who live in this Gilead [region].”
