Sudije 10

1 A poslije Avimeleha usta da izbavi Izrailja Tola sin Fuve sina Dodova, èovjek plemena Isaharova, koji sjeðaše u Samiru u gori Jefremovoj.

After the time of Abimelech, a man of Issachar, Tola son of Puah, the son of Dodo, rose up to save Israel. He lived in Shamir, in the hill country of Ephraim.

2 I bi sudija Izrailju dvadeset i tri godine, pa umrije i bi pogreben u Samiru.

Tola judged Israel twenty-three years, and when he died, he was buried in Shamir.

3 Poslije njega usta Jair od plemena Galadova, i bi sudija Izrailju dvadeset i dvije godine;

Tola was followed by Jair the Gileadite, who judged Israel twenty-two years.

4 I imaše trideset sinova, koji jahahu na tridesetoro magaradi, i imahu trideset gradova, koji se zovu sela Jairova do danas i jesu u zemlji Galadovoj.

He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkeys. And they had thirty towns in the land of Gilead, which to this day are called Havvoth-jair.

5 I umrije Jair, i bi pogreben u Kamonu.

When Jair died, he was buried in Kamon.

6 A sinovi Izrailjevi opet èiniše što je zlo pred Gospodom, i služiše Valima i Astarotama, i bogovima Sirskim, i bogovima Sidonskim, i bogovima Moavskim, i bogovima sinova Amonovijeh i bogovima Filistejskim; i ostaviše Gospoda i ne služiše mu.

And again the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD. They served the Baals, the Ashtoreths, the gods of Aram, Sidon, and Moab, and the gods of the Ammonites and Philistines. Thus they forsook the LORD and did not serve Him.

7 Zato se razgnjevi Gospod na Izrailja, te ih dade u ruke Filistejima i u ruke sinovima Amonovijem.

So the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He sold them into the hands of the Philistines and Ammonites,

8 A oni gaziše i satiraše sinove Izrailjeve od one godine osamnaest godina, sve sinove Izrailjeve koji bijahu s onu stranu Jordana, u zemlji Amorejskoj, koja je u Galadu.

who that very year harassed and oppressed the Israelites, and did so for eighteen years to all the Israelites on the other side of the Jordan in Gilead, the land of the Amorites.

9 I prijeðoše sinovi Amonovi preko Jordana da se biju i s Judom i s Venijaminom i s domom Jefremovijem; i bi Izrailj u velikoj nevolji.

The Ammonites also crossed the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin, and the house of Ephraim, and Israel was in deep distress.

10 Tada vapiše sinovi Izrailjevi ka Gospodu govoreæi: sagriješismo ti što ostavismo Boga svojega i služismo Valima.

Then the Israelites cried out to the LORD, saying, “We have sinned against You, for we have indeed forsaken our God and served the Baals.”

11 A Gospod reèe sinovima Izrailjevijem: od Misiraca i od Amoreja i od sinova Amonovijeh i od Filisteja,

The LORD replied, “When the Egyptians, Amorites, Ammonites, Philistines,

12 I od Sidonjana i od Amalika i od Maonaca, koji vas muèiše, nijesam li vas izbavljao kad vapijaste k meni?

Sidonians, Amalekites, and Maonites oppressed you and you cried out to Me, did I not save you from their hands?

13 Ali vi ostaviste mene i služiste drugim bogovima; zato vas više neæu izbavljati.

But you have forsaken Me and served other gods, so I will no longer save you.

14 Idite i vièite one bogove koje ste izabrali, neka vas oni izbave u nevolji vašoj.

Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you in your time of trouble.”

15 A sinovi Izrailjevi rekoše Gospodu: sagriješismo; èini s nama što ti je drago, samo nas sada izbavi.

“We have sinned,” the Israelites said to the LORD. “Deal with us as You see fit; but please deliver us today!”

16 I pobacaše izmeðu sebe bogove tuðe, i stadoše služiti Gospodu; i sažali mu se radi muke sinova Izrailjevijeh.

So they put away the foreign gods from among them and served the LORD, and He could no longer bear the misery of Israel.

17 A sinovi Amonovi skupiše se i stadoše u oko u Galadu; skupiše se i sinovi Izrailjevi i stadoše u oko u Mispi.

Then the Ammonites were called to arms and camped in Gilead, and the Israelites assembled and camped at Mizpah.

18 A narod i knezovi Galadski rekoše jedan drugomu: ko æe poèeti boj sa sinovima Amonovijem? on neka bude poglavar svjema koji žive u Galadu.

And the rulers of Gilead said to one another, “Whoever will launch the attack against the Ammonites will be the head of all who live in Gilead.”
