Mpitsara 10
1 Ie añe t’i Abimeleke, le nitroatse handrombake Israele ka t’i Tolà, ana’ i Poà, ana’ i Dodò, nte-Isakare; mpimoneñe e Samire am-bohi’ i Efraime.
And after Abimelech there arose to defend Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in mount Ephraim.
2 Nizaka e Israele taoñe roapolo-telo’ amby re naho nihomake vaho nalenteke e Samire ao.
And he judged Israel twenty and three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir.
3 Ie añe, nitroatse ka t’Iaire nte Gilade le nizaka taoñe roapolo-ro’ amby.
And after him arose Jair, a Gileadite, and judged Israel twenty and two years.
4 Nanañ’ anadahy telo-polo re niningitse añ’ ana-borìke telo-polo, ie aman-drova telo-polo, o atao rova’ Iaire sikala henaneo; an-tane Gilade ao irezay.
And he had thirty sons that rode on thirty ass colts, and they had thirty cities, which are called Havoth-jair to this day, which [are] in the land of Gilead.
5 Nivilasy t’Iaire vaho nalenteke e Kamone ao.
And Jair died, and was buried in Camon.
6 Nanao haloloañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà indraike o ana’ Israeleo ie nitoroñe o Baaleo naho o Hazomangao naho o’ndrahare’ i Arameo naho o’ndrahare’ i Tsidoneo naho o ‘ndrahare’ i Moabeo naho o ‘ndraharen’ ana’ i Amoneo naho o ‘ndraharen-te-Pilistio vaho naforintse’ iareo t’Iehovà, tsy nitoroñe aze.
And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, 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 forsook the LORD, and served not him.
7 Aa le nisolebotse am’ Israele ty haviñera’ Iehovà le natolo’e am-pità’ o nte-Pilistio, vaho am-pità’ o ana’ i Amoneo.
And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hands of the Philistines, and into the hands of the children of Ammon.
8 Finorekekè’ iareo naho dinemo’ iareo taoñe folo-valo’ amby o ana’ Israeleo, toe o ana’ Israele alafe’ Iordaney an-tane’ o nte-Amoreo e Giladeo.
And that year they harassed and oppressed the children of Israel eighteen years, all the children of Israel that [were] on the other side of Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which [is] in Gilead.
9 Nitsaha’ o ana’ i Amoneo ka Iordaney hialy am’ Iehoda, naho amy Beniamine, naho amy anjomba’ i Efraimey, vaho vata’e nalovilovy t’Israele.
Moreover, the children of Ammon passed over Jordan, to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; so that Israel was greatly distressed.
10 Nitoreo amy Iehovà amy zao o ana’ Israeleo, nanao ty hoe: Aman-kakeo ama’o zahay, fa niambohoa’ay t’i Andrianañahare’ay, vaho nitoroñe o Baaleo.
And the children of Israel cried to the LORD, saying, We have sinned against thee, both because we have forsaken our God, and also served Baalim.
11 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà amo ana’ Israeleo: Tsy nirombaheko amo nte-Mitsraimeo hao naho amo nte-Amoreo naho amo ana’ i Amoneo, naho amo nte-Pilistio?
And the LORD said to the children of Israel, [Did] not [I deliver you] from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines?
12 Niforekeke’ o nte-Tsidoneo ka, naho o nte-Amalekeo, naho o nte Amoneo le nitoreova’ areo vaho rinombako am-pità’ iareo.
The Zidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites oppressed you; and ye cried to me, and I delivered you out of their hand.
13 Fe niambohoa’ areo, vaho nitoroñe ‘ndrahare ila’e; izay ty tsy andrombahako anahareo.
Yet ye have forsaken me, and served other gods: wherefore I will deliver you no more.
14 Akia koiho o ‘ndrahare jinobo’ areoo; angao handrombaha’ iareo amo hasotria’ areoo.
Go and cry to the gods which ye have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation.
15 Le hoe o ana’ Israeleo amy Iehovà: Toe nanao hakeo zahay, ano ama’ay ze hatao’o soa; fa ehe hahao te anito.
And the children of Israel said to the LORD, We have sinned: do thou to us whatever seemeth good to thee; deliver us only, we pray thee, this day.
16 Aa le nadò’ iareo añe o ‘ndrahare ankafankafa añivo’ iareo ao, naho nitoroñe Iehovà; vaho niferenaiña’ ty arofo’e o nte’ Israeleo amo falovilovia’eo.
And they put away the strange gods from among them, and served the LORD: and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.
17 Kinoik’ amy zao o nte-Amoneo naho nitobe e Gilade ao. Nifanontoñe ka o ana’ Israeleo le nitobe e Mitspà ao.
Then the children of Ammon were assembled, and encamped in Gilead. And the children of Israel assembled themselves, and encamped in Mizpeh.
18 Le hoe ty nifanaontsia’ ondatio naho o roandria’ i Giladeo: Ia mb’ arè ty hiorots’ aly amo ana’ i Amoneo? Ie ty hatao lohà’ o hene’ mpimone’ i Giladeo.
And the people [and] princes of Gilead said one to another, What man [is he] that will begin to fight against the children of Ammon? he shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.
