Abbootii Murtii 10
1 Erga Abiimelek duʼee booddee namichi gosa Yisaakor, Toolaan ilmi Phuwaa ilmi Doodoo Israaʼel baraaruuf kaʼe. Innis biyya gaaraa Efreem keessa Shaamiir jiraate.
And there rises after Abimelech, to save Israel, Tola son of Puah, son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, and he is dwelling in Shamir, in the hill-country of Ephraim,
2 Tolaan waggaa digdamii sadii Israaʼelin bulche; ergasiis duʼee Shaamiiritti awwaalame.
and he judges Israel [for] twenty-three years, and he dies, and is buried in Shamir.
3 Isatti aanee Yaaʼiir namichi gosa Giliʼaad kaʼee waggaa kudha lama Israaʼelin bulche;
And there rises Jair the Gileadite after him, and he judges Israel [for] twenty-two years,
4 innis ilmaan soddoma kanneen harroota soddoma yaabbatan qaba ture. Isaanis magaalaawwan hamma harʼaatti gandoota Yaaʼiir jedhaman soddoma Giliʼaad keessaa qabu turan.
and he has thirty sons riding on thirty donkey-colts, and they have thirty cities (they call them Havoth-Jair to this day), which [are] in the land of Gilead;
5 Yaaʼiiris duʼee Qaamonitti awwaalame.
and Jair dies, and is buried in Kamon.
6 Ammas Israaʼeloonni fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjetan. Baʼaalii fi Ashtooreti akkasumas waaqota Sooriyaa, Siidoonaa, Moʼaab, Amoonii fi kan Filisxeem waaqeffatan. Waan Israaʼeloonni Waaqayyoon dhiisanii isa waaqeffachuu didaniif,
And the sons of Israel add to do evil in the eyes of YHWH, and serve the Ba‘alim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Aram, and the gods of Sidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the sons of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsake YHWH, and have not served Him;
7 inni isaanitti dheekkame. Dabarsees harka Filisxeemotaatii fi Amoonotaatti isaan gurgure;
and the anger of YHWH burns against Israel, and He sells them into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the sons of Ammon,
8 isaanis bara sana ijoollee Israaʼel gad cabsanii cunqursan. Israaʼeloota biyya Amoorotaa kan Giliʼaad keessa karaa baʼaatiin laga Yordaanos bira jiraatan hundumaa waggaa kudha saddeet akka malee cunqursan.
and they crush and oppress the sons of Israel in that year; [and for] eighteen years—all the sons of Israel [who] are beyond the Jordan, in the land of the Amorite, which [is] in Gilead.
9 Amoononnis gosa Yihuudaa, gosa Beniyaamii fi mana Efreem waraanuudhaaf laga Yordaanos ceʼan. Israaʼeloonnis akka malee raafaman.
And the sons of Ammon pass over the Jordan to also fight against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim, and Israel has great distress.
10 Kanaafuu Israaʼeloonni, “Nu si Waaqa keenya dhiifnee Baʼaal waaqeffachuudhaan yakka sitti hojjenneerra” jedhanii Waaqayyotti iyyatan.
And the sons of Israel cry to YHWH, saying, “We have sinned against You, because we have even forsaken our God, and serve the Ba‘alim.”
11 Waaqayyos akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Yeroo warri Gibxi, Amooronni, Amoononni, Filisxeemonni,
And YHWH says to the sons of Israel, “[Have I] not [saved you] from the Egyptians, and from the Amorite, from the sons of Ammon, and from the Philistines?
12 Siidoononni, Amaaleqoonnii fi Maaʼoononni isin cunqursinaan isin natti iyyattanitti ani harka isaanii jalaa isin hin baafnee?
And the Zidonians, and Amalek, and Maon have oppressed you, and you cry to Me, and I save you out of their hand;
13 Isin garuu na dhiiftanii waaqota biraa waaqeffattan; kanaafuu ani siʼachi isin hin baasu.
and you have forsaken Me, and serve other gods, therefore I do not add to save you.
14 Deemaatii waaqota filattan sanatti iyyadhaa. Yommuu isin rakkattan isaanumti isin haa oolchan!”
Go and cry to the gods on which you have fixed; they save you in the time of your tribulation.”
15 Israaʼeloonnis Waaqayyoon, “Nu cubbuu hojjenneera. Ati waan feete nu godhi; amma garuu maaloo nu baasi” jedhan.
And the sons of Israel say to YHWH, “We have sinned, do to us according to all that is good in Your eyes; only please deliver us this day.”
16 Isaanis waaqota ormaa gidduu isaaniitii balleessanii Waaqayyoon waaqeffatan. Innis ergasii dhiphina Israaʼel calʼisee ilaaluu hin dandeenye.
And they turn aside the gods of the stranger out of their midst, and serve YHWH, and His soul is grieved with the misery of Israel.
17 Yeroo Amoononni Giliʼaaditti wal gaʼanitti Israaʼeloonnis wal gaʼanii Miisphaa qubatan.
And the sons of Ammon are called together, and encamp in Gilead, and the sons of Israel are gathered together, and encamp in Mizpah.
18 Hooggantoonni namoota Giliʼaadis, “Namni jalqabatti Amoonotatti waraana banu inni jiraattota Giliʼaad hundaaf hoogganaa taʼa” waliin jedhan.
And the people—heads of Gilead—say to one another, “Who [is] the man that begins to fight against the sons of Ammon? He is for head to all inhabitants of Gilead.”
