Sodniki 10
1 Za Abimélehom je vstal Tolá, sin Puvája, sinú Dodója, mož iz Isahárja, da brani Izrael. Prebival je v Šamíru, na gori Efrájim.
After Abimelech's time, Tola, son of Puah, son of Dodo, from the tribe of Issachar, came on the scene to save Israel. He lived in the town of Shamir, in the hill country of Ephraim.
2 Izraelu je sodil triindvajset let in umrl ter bil pokopan v Šamíru.
He led Israel as a judge for twenty-three years. Then he died and was buried in Shamir.
3 Za njim je vstal Gileádec Jaír in Izraelu sodil dvaindvajset let.
After Tola came Jair from Gilead, who led Israel as a judge for twenty-two years.
4 Imel je trideset sinov, ki so jahali na tridesetih osličjih žrebetih in imeli so trideset mest, ki se imenujejo Havot Jaír do tega dne, ki so v deželi Gileád.
He had thirty sons who rode thirty donkeys. They had thirty towns in the land of Gilead, which to this day are called the Towns of Jair.
5 Jaír je umrl in bil pokopan v Kamónu.
Jair died and he was buried in Kamon.
6 Izraelovi otroci pa so v Gospodovih očeh ponovno počeli zlo in služili Báalom, Astarti, bogovom Sirije, bogovom Sidóna, bogovom Moába, bogovom Amónovih otrok in bogovom Filistejcev in zapustili so Gospoda in mu niso služili.
Once again the Israelites did what was evil in the Lord's sight. They worshiped the Baals and the Ashtoreths, as well as the gods of Aram, Sidon, and Moab, and the gods of the Ammonites and Philistines. They rejected the Lord and did not worship him.
7 Gospodova jeza je bila vroča zoper Izrael in prodal jih je v roke Filistejcev in v roke Amónovih otrok.
So the Lord became angry with Israel, and he sold them to the Philistines and the Ammonites.
8 Tisto leto so tlačili in zatirali Izraelove otroke; osemnajst let, vse Izraelove otroke, ki so bili na drugi strani Jordana, v deželi Amoréjcev, ki je v Gileádu.
That year and for eighteen more years they harassed and oppressed the Israelites, all the Israelites that lived on the east side of the Jordan in Gilead, the land of the Amorites.
9 Poleg tega so Amónovi otroci prečkali Jordan, da se borijo tudi zoper Juda, zoper Benjamina in zoper Efrájimovo hišo, tako, da je bil Izrael silno stiskan.
The Ammonites also crossed the Jordan to attack Judah, Benjamin, and Ephraim, causing terrible trouble for Israel.
10 Izraelovi otroci so vpili h Gospodu, rekoč: »Grešili smo zoper tebe, zato ker smo zapustili svojega Boga in služili tudi Báalom.«
The Israelites cried out to the Lord for help, saying, “We have sinned against you, rejecting our God and worshiping the Baals.”
11 Gospod je Izraelovim otrokom rekel: » Mar vas nisem osvobodil pred Egipčani in pred Amoréjci, pred Amónovimi otroki in pred Filistejci?
The Lord replied to the Israelites, “Didn't I save you from the Egyptians, the Amorites, the Ammonites, the Philistines,
12 Tudi Sidónci, Amalečani in Maonci so vas zatirali in klicali ste k meni in osvobodil sem vas iz njihove roke.
the Sidonians, the Amalekites, and the Maonites? When they attacked you, and you cried out to me for help, didn't I save you from them?
13 Vendar ste me zapustili in služili drugim bogovom, zato vas ne bom več osvobajal.
But you have rejected me and worshiped other gods, so I won't save you again.
14 Pojdite in jokajte k bogovom, ki ste jih izbrali. Naj vas oni osvobodijo v času vaše stiske.«
Go and cry out for help to the gods you have chosen. Let them save you in your time of trouble.”
15 Izraelovi otroci so rekli Gospodu: »Grešili smo. Stôri nam, karkoli se ti zdi dobro. Prosimo te, samo osvobodi nas ta dan.«
The Israelites said to the Lord, “We have sinned! Treat us in whatever way you think you should, only please save us now!”
16 Izmed sebe so odstranili tuje bogove in služili Gospodu. Njegova duša je bila užaloščena zaradi Izraelove bede.
So they got rid of the foreign gods they had and worshiped the Lord. And the Lord couldn't stand Israel's misery any longer.
17 Potem so bili Amónovi otroci zbrani skupaj in se utaborili v Gileádu. Izraelovi otroci pa so se zbrali skupaj in se utaborili v Micpi.
The Ammonite armies had been called up and were camped in Gilead. The Israelites assembled and camped at Mizpah.
18 Ljudstvo in gileádski princi so drug drugemu rekli: »Kateri mož je ta, ki se bo začel boriti zoper Amónove otroke? Ta bo poglavar nad vsemi prebivalci Gileáda.«
The commanders of the people of Gilead agreed among themselves, “Whoever leads the attack on the Ammonites will become ruler over everyone who lives in Gilead.”
