Juízes 10
1 E depois de Abimelech, se levantou, para livrar a Israel, Tola, filho de Puah, filho de Dodo, homem d'Issacar: e habitava em Samir, na montanha d'Ephraim.
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 E julgou a Israel vinte e tres annos: e morreu, e foi sepultado em Samir.
He ruled the Israeli people for 23 years. Then he died and was buried in Shamir.
3 E depois d'elle se levantou Jair, gileadita, e julgou a Israel vinte e dois annos.
After Tola died, Jair, from [the] Gilead [region], became the Israelis’ leader, and he ruled them for 22 years.
4 E tinha este trinta filhos, que cavalgavam sobre trinta jumentos; e tinham trinta cidades, a que chamaram Havoth-jair, até ao dia d'hoje; as quaes estão na terra de Gilead.
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 E morreu Jair, e foi sepultado em Camon.
When Jair died, he was buried in Kamon [city].
6 Então tornaram os filhos de Israel a fazer o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor, e serviram aos baalins, e a Astaroth, e aos deuses da Syria, e aos deuses de Sidon, e aos deuses de Moab, e aos deuses dos filhos d'Ammon, e aos deuses dos philisteos: e deixaram ao Senhor, e não o serviram.
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 E a ira do Senhor se accendeu contra Israel: e vendeu-os em mão dos philisteos, e em mão dos filhos d'Ammon.
So Yahweh was very angry with them, and he allowed the Philistia and Ammon people-groups to defeat [IDM] the Israelis.
8 E n'aquelle mesmo anno opprimiram e vexaram aos filhos de Israel: dezoito annos opprimiram a todos os filhos de Israel que estavam d'além do Jordão, na terra dos amorrheos, que está em Gilead.
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 Até os filhos d'Ammon passaram o Jordão, para pelejar tambem contra Judah, e contra Benjamin, e contra a casa d'Ephraim: de maneira que Israel ficou mui angustiado.
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 Então os filhos d'Israel clamaram ao Senhor, dizendo: Contra ti havemos peccado, em que deixámos a nosso Deus, e em que servimos aos baalins.
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 Porém o Senhor disse aos filhos de Israel: Porventura dos egypcios, e dos amorrheos, e dos filhos d'Ammon, e dos philisteos,
Yahweh answered them, saying, “When the people of Egypt, and the Amor and Ammon and Philistia people-groups
12 E dos sidonios, e dos amalekitas, e dos maonitas, que vos opprimiam, quando a mim chamastes, não vos livrei eu então da sua mão?
and the Sidon and Amalek and Maon people-groups were cruel to you, you cried out to me, and then I rescued you.
13 Comtudo vós me deixastes a mim, e servistes a outros deuses: pelo que não vos livrarei mais.
But now you have abandoned me again, and you have been worshiping other gods. So I will not rescue you again.
14 Andae, e clamae aos deuses que escolhestes: que vos livrem elles no tempo do vosso aperto.
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 Mas os filhos de Israel disseram ao Senhor: Peccámos, faze-nos conforme a tudo quanto te parecer bem aos teus olhos; tão sómente te rogamos que nos livres n'este dia.
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 E tiraram os deuses alheios do meio de si, e serviram ao Senhor: então se angustiou a sua alma por causa do trabalho d'Israel.
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 E os filhos d'Ammon se convocaram, e se pozeram em campo em Gilead: e tambem os de Israel se congregaram, e se pozeram em campo em Mispah.
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 Então o povo, os principes de Gilead disseram uns aos outros: Quem será o varão que começará a pelejar contra os filhos d'Ammon? elle será por Cabeça de todos os moradores de Gilead
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].”
