Juízes 10
1 Depois de Abimelech, Tola, o filho de Puah, o filho de Dodo, um homem de Issachar, surgiu para salvar Israel. Ele viveu em Shamir, na região montanhosa de Ephraim.
After Abimelech there arose a ruler in Israel, Thola son of Phua the uncle of Abimelech, a man of Issachar, who dwelt in Samir of mount Ephraim:
2 Ele julgou Israel vinte e três anos, e morreu, e foi enterrado em Shamir.
And he judged Israel three and twenty years, and he died and was buried in Samir.
3 Depois dele, surgiu Jair, o Gileadita. Ele julgou Israel vinte e dois anos.
To him succeeded Jair the Galaadite, who judged Israel for two and twenty years.
4 Ele teve trinta filhos que montaram em trinta jumentos. Eles tinham trinta cidades, que até hoje são chamadas Havvoth Jair, que estão na terra de Gilead.
Having thirty sons that rode on thirty ass colts, and were princes of thirty cities, which from his name were called Havoth Jair, that is, the towns of Jair, until this present day in the land of Galaad.
5 Jair morreu, e foi enterrado em Kamon.
And Jair died: and was buried in the place which was called Camon.
6 Os filhos de Israel novamente fizeram o que era mau aos olhos de Iavé, e serviram os Baal, os Ashtaroth, os deuses da Síria, os deuses de Sidon, os deuses de Moabe, os deuses dos filhos de Amon, e os deuses dos filisteus. Eles abandonaram Yahweh, e não o serviram.
But the children of Israel, adding new sins to their old ones, did evil in the sight of the Lord, and served idols, Baalim and Astaroth, and the gods of Syria and of Sidon and of Moab and of the children of Ammon and of the Philistines: and they left the Lord, and did not serve him.
7 A raiva de Javé queimou contra Israel, e ele os vendeu na mão dos filisteus e na mão dos filhos de Amon.
And the Lord being angry with them, delivered them into the hands of the Philistines and of the children of Ammon.
8 Eles perturbaram e oprimiram as crianças de Israel naquele ano. Durante dezoito anos eles oprimiram todas as crianças de Israel que estavam além do Jordão na terra dos amorreus, que fica em Gileade.
And they were afflicted, and grievously oppressed for eighteen years, all they that dwelt beyond the Jordan in the land of the Amorrhite, who is in Galaad:
9 Os filhos de Amon passaram por cima do Jordão para lutar também contra Judá, e contra Benjamim, e contra a casa de Efraim, de modo que Israel ficou muito angustiado.
Insomuch that the children of Ammon passing over the Jordan, wasted Juda and Benjamin and Ephraim: and Israel was distressed exceedingly.
10 As crianças de Israel gritaram a Javé, dizendo: “Pecamos contra vocês, mesmo porque abandonamos nosso Deus, e servimos aos Baal”.
And they cried to the Lord, and said: We have sinned against thee, because we have forsaken the Lord our God, and have served Baalim.
11 Yahweh disse aos filhos de Israel: “Eu não te salvei dos egípcios, dos amorreus, dos filhos de Amon, e dos filisteus?
And the Lord said to them: Did not the Egyptians and the Amorrhites, and the children of Ammon and the Philistines,
12 Os sidônios também, e os amalequitas, e os maonitas, vos oprimiram; e vós chorastes para mim, e eu vos salvei da mão deles.
The Sidonians also and Amalec and Chanaan oppress you, and you cried to me, and I delivered you out of their hand?
13 No entanto, vocês me abandonaram e serviram a outros deuses. Portanto, eu não mais vos salvarei.
And yet you have forsaken me, and have worshipped strange gods: therefore I will deliver you no more:
14 Go e chore aos deuses que você escolheu. Que eles te salvem no momento de sua angústia”.
Go and call upon the gods which you have chosen: let them deliver you in the time of distress.
15 As crianças de Israel disseram a Javé: “Nós pecamos! Façam-nos o que lhes parecer bom; só nos entreguem, por favor, hoje”.
And the children of Israel said to the Lord: We have sinned, do thou unto us whatsoever pleaseth thee: only deliver us this time.
16 Eles afastaram os deuses estrangeiros do meio deles e serviram a Iavé; e sua alma se entristeceu pela miséria de Israel.
And saying these things, they cast away out of their coasts all the idols of strange gods and served the Lord their God: and he was touched with their miseries.
17 Então as crianças de Ammon foram reunidas e acampadas em Gilead. As crianças de Israel se reuniram e acamparam em Mizpah.
And the children of Ammon shouting together, pitched their tents in Galaad: against whom the children of Israel assembled themselves together and camped in Maspha.
18 O povo, os príncipes de Gilead, disseram uns aos outros: “Quem é o homem que começará a lutar contra as crianças de Ammon? Ele será o cabeça sobre todos os habitantes de Gilead”.
And the princes of Galaad said one to another: Whosoever of us shall first begin to fight against the children of Ammon, he shall be the leader of the people of Galaad.
