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.

And after Abimelech there arose to save Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in the hill-country of Ephraim.

2 Ele julgou Israel vinte e três anos, e morreu, e foi enterrado em Shamir.

And he judged Israel twenty and three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir.

3 Depois dele, surgiu Jair, o Gileadita. Ele julgou Israel vinte e dois anos.

And after him arose Jair, the Gileadite; and he judged Israel twenty and two 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.

And he had thirty sons that rode on thirty ass colts, and they had thirty cities, which are called Havvoth-jair unto this day, which are in the land of Gilead.

5 Jair morreu, e foi enterrado em Kamon.

And Jair died, and was buried in Kamon.

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.

And the children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and served the Baalim, and the Ashtaroth, and the gods of Aram, 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 they forsook the LORD, and served Him not.

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 anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and He gave them over into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand 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 oppressed and crushed the children of Israel that year; eighteen years oppressed they all the children of Israel that were beyond the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.

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.

And the children of Ammon passed over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim, so that Israel was sore distressed.

10 As crianças de Israel gritaram a Javé, dizendo: “Pecamos contra vocês, mesmo porque abandonamos nosso Deus, e servimos aos Baal”.

And the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, saying: 'We have sinned against Thee, in that we have forsaken our God, and have served the 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 unto the children of Israel: 'Did not I save you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from 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 Zidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, did oppress you; and ye cried unto Me, and I saved you out of their hand.

13 No entanto, vocês me abandonaram e serviram a outros deuses. Portanto, eu não mais vos salvarei.

Yet ye have forsaken Me, and served other gods; wherefore I will save you no more.

14 Go e chore aos deuses que você escolheu. Que eles te salvem no momento de sua angústia”.

Go and cry unto the gods which ye have chosen; let them save you in the time of your 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 unto the LORD: 'We have sinned; do Thou unto us whatsoever seemeth good unto Thee; only deliver us, we pray Thee, this day.'

16 Eles afastaram os deuses estrangeiros do meio deles e serviram a Iavé; e sua alma se entristeceu pela miséria de Israel.

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 Então as crianças de Ammon foram reunidas e acampadas em Gilead. As crianças de Israel se reuniram e acamparam em Mizpah.

Then the children of Ammon were gathered together, and encamped in Gilead. And the children of Israel assembled themselves together, and encamped in Mizpah.

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 people, the 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.'
