< Judges 10 >

1 Lẹ́yìn ikú Abimeleki, ọkùnrin kan láti ẹ̀yà Isakari tí orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Tola ọmọ Pua, ọmọ Dodo, dìde láti gba Israẹli sílẹ̀. Ní Ṣamiri tí ó wà ní òkè Efraimu ni ó gbé.
Now after Abimelech, Tola, the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, became the saviour of Israel; he was living in Shamir in the hill-country of Ephraim.
2 Ó ṣe àkóso Israẹli ní ọdún mẹ́tàlélógún. Nígbà tí ó kú wọ́n sìn ín sí Ṣamiri.
He was judge over Israel for twenty-three years; and at his death his body was put to rest in the earth in Shamir.
3 Jairi ti ẹ̀yà Gileadi ni ó dìde lẹ́yìn rẹ̀, ó ṣàkóso Israẹli ní ọdún méjìlélógún.
And after him came Jair the Gileadite, who was judge over Israel for twenty-two years.
4 Àwọn ọgbọ̀n ọmọ tí ó n gun ọgbọ̀n kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́. Wọ́n ṣe àkóso ọgbọ̀n ìlú ní Gileadi, tí a pe orúkọ wọn ní Hafoti-Jairi títí di òní.
And he had thirty sons, who went on thirty young asses; and they had thirty towns in the land of Gilead, which are named Havvoth-Jair to this day.
5 Nígbà tí Jairi kú wọ́n sin ín sí Kamoni.
And at the death of Jair his body was put to rest in the earth in Kamon.
6 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì túnṣe ohun tí ó burú lójú Olúwa. Wọ́n sin Baali àti Aṣtoreti àti àwọn òrìṣà Aramu, òrìṣà Sidoni, òrìṣà Moabu, òrìṣà àwọn ará Ammoni àti òrìṣà àwọn ará Filistini. Nítorí àwọn ará Israẹli kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀ tí wọn kò sì sìn ín mọ́,
And again the children of Israel did evil in the eyes of the Lord, worshipping the Baals and Astartes, 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; they gave up the Lord and were servants to him no longer.
7 ó bínú sí wọn, ó fi wọ́n sílẹ̀ fún àwọn ará Filistini àti Ammoni láti jẹ ẹ́ ní ìyà.
And the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he gave them up into the hands of the Philistines and into the hands of the children of Ammon.
8 Ní ọdún náà, wọ́n tú wọn ká wọ́n sì pọ́n wọn lójú. Fún ọdún méjìdínlógún ni wọ́n fi ni gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli tí ó wà ní ìlà-oòrùn odò Jordani ní ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Amori lára (èyí nì ní Gileadi).
And that year the children of Israel were crushed under their yoke; for eighteen years all the children of Israel on the other side of Jordan, in the land of the Amorites which is in Gilead, were cruelly crushed down.
9 Àwọn ará Ammoni sì la odò Jordani kọjá láti bá Juda, Benjamini àti àwọn ará ilé Efraimu jagun: Israẹli sì dojúkọ ìpọ́njú tó lágbára.
And the children of Ammon went over Jordan, to make war against Judah and Benjamin and the house of Ephraim; and Israel was in great trouble.
10 Nígbà tí èyí ti ṣẹlẹ̀ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ké pe Olúwa wí pé, “Àwa ti ṣẹ̀ sí ọ, nítorí pé àwa ti kọ Ọlọ́run wa sílẹ̀, àwa sì ń sin Baali.”
Then the children of Israel, crying out to the Lord, said, Great is our sin against you, for we have given up our God and have been servants to the Baals.
11 Olúwa sì dáhùn pé, “Ǹjẹ́ nígbà tí àwọn ará Ejibiti, Amori, Ammoni, Filistini,
And the Lord said to the children of Israel, Were not the Egyptians and the Amorites and the children of Ammon and the Philistines
12 àwọn ará Sidoni, Amaleki pẹ̀lú Maoni ni yín lára, tí ẹ sì ké pè mí fún ìrànlọ́wọ́, ǹjẹ́ èmi kò gbà yín sílẹ̀ kúrò ní ọwọ́ wọn?
And the Zidonians and Amalek and Midian crushing you down, and in answer to your cry did I not give you salvation from their hands?
13 Síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kọ̀ mí sílẹ̀ láti sin àwọn ọlọ́run mìíràn, torí ìdí èyí, èmi kì yóò sì tún gbà yín mọ́.
But, for all this, you have given me up and have been servants to other gods: so I will be your saviour no longer.
14 Ẹ lọ kí ẹ sì ké pe àwọn òrìṣà tí ẹ̀yin ti yàn fún ara yín. Jẹ́ kí wọn gbà yín sílẹ̀ ní àsìkò ìpọ́njú yín!”
Go, send up your cry for help to the gods of your selection; let them be your saviours in the time of your trouble.
15 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì dá Olúwa lóhùn pé, “Àwa ti ṣẹ̀, ṣe ohun tí ó bá fẹ́ pẹ̀lú wa, ṣùgbọ́n, jọ̀wọ́ gbà wá sílẹ̀ náání àsìkò yìí.”
And the children of Israel said to the Lord, We are sinners; do to us whatever seems good to you: only give us salvation this day.
16 Nígbà náà ni wọ́n kó gbogbo ọlọ́run àjèjì tí ó wà láàrín wọn kúrò wọ́n sì sin Olúwa nìkan, ọkàn rẹ̀ kò sì le gbàgbé ìrora Israẹli mọ́.
So they put away the strange gods from among them, and became the Lord's servants; and his soul was angry because of the sorrows of Israel.
17 Nígbà tí àwọn ará Ammoni kógun jọ ní Gileadi láti bá Israẹli jà, àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gbárajọpọ̀, wọ́n sì tẹ̀dó ogun ní Mispa.
Then the children of Ammon came together and put their army in position in Gilead. And the children of Israel came together and put their army in position in Mizpah.
18 Àwọn ìjòyè: aṣíwájú àwọn ará Gileadi wí fún ará wọn pé, “Ẹnikẹ́ni tí yóò kọ́ ṣígun si àwọn ará Ammoni ni yóò jẹ́ orí fún gbogbo àwọn tí ń gbé ní Gileadi.”
And the people of Israel said to one another, Who will be the first to make an attack on the children of Ammon? We will make him head over all Gilead.
