< Judges 2 >

1 Ní ọjọ́ kan angẹli Olúwa dìde kúrò láti Gilgali lọ sí Bokimu ó sì wí pé, “Èmi mú un yín gòkè láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá, èmi sì síwájú yín wá sí ilẹ̀ tí mo ti búra láti fi fún àwọn baba ńlá yín. Èmi sì wí pé, ‘Èmi kì yóò yẹ májẹ̀mú mi pẹ̀lú yín,
And an Angel of the Lord came vp from Gilgal to Bochim, and sayd, I made you to go vp out of Egypt, and haue brought you vnto the land which I had sworne vnto your fathers, and sayd, I wil neuer breake my couenant with you.
2 ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ bá àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ yí dá májẹ̀mú àlàáfíà, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin yóò wó pẹpẹ ibi ìsin òrìṣà wọn lulẹ̀.’ Síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin ṣe àìgbọ́ràn sí mi. Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi ṣe èyí?
Ye also shall make no couenant with the inhabitants of this land, but shall breake downe their altars: but ye haue not obeyed my voyce. Why haue ye done this?
3 Ní báyìí, èmi wí fún un yín pé, èmi kì yóò lé àwọn ènìyàn jáde kúrò níwájú yín; ṣùgbọ́n wọn yóò jẹ́ ẹ̀gún ní ìhà yín, àwọn òrìṣà wọn yóò sì jẹ́ ìdánwò fún un yín.”
Wherefore, I sayd also, I wil not cast them out before you, but they shalbe as thornes vnto your sides, and their gods shalbe your destruction.
4 Bí angẹli Olúwa sì ti sọ gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí fún àwọn ará Israẹli tan, àwọn ènìyàn náà sì gbé ohùn wọn sókè wọ́n sì sọkún kíkorò,
And when the Angel of the Lord spake these wordes vnto all the children of Israel, the people lift vp their voyce, and wept.
5 wọ́n sì pe orúkọ ibẹ̀ ní Bokimu (ibi tí àwọn ènìyàn ti sọkún). Wọ́n sì rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa níbẹ̀.
Therefore they called the name of that place, Bochim, and offered sacrifices there vnto the Lord.
6 Lẹ́yìn tí Joṣua ti tú àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli ká, àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli kọ̀ọ̀kan lọ sí ilẹ̀ tí a fi fún wọn láti lọ gbà á ní ìní wọn.
Now when Ioshua had sent the people away, the children of Israel went euery man into his inheritance, to possesse the land.
7 Àwọn ènìyàn náà sin Olúwa ní gbogbo ìgbà ayé Joṣua àti ní gbogbo ọjọ́ àwọn àgbàgbà tí ó wà lẹ́yìn ikú rẹ̀ tí wọ́n sì rí gbogbo iṣẹ́ ńlá tí Olúwa ṣe fún Israẹli.
And the people had serued the Lord al the dayes of Ioshua, and all the dayes of the Elders that outliued Ioshua, which had seene all the great works of the Lord that he did for Israel.
8 Joṣua ọmọ Nuni, ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa, kú ní ẹni àádọ́fà ọdún.
But Ioshua the sonne of Nun the seruant of the Lord dyed, when he was an hundreth and ten yeeres olde:
9 Wọ́n sì sìnkú rẹ̀ sí ààlà ilẹ̀ ìní rẹ̀ ní Timnati-Hereki ní ilẹ̀ òkè Efraimu ní àríwá òkè Gaaṣi.
And they buryed him in the coastes of his inheritance, in Timnath-heres in mount Ephraim, on the Northside of mount Gaash.
10 Ní ìgbẹ̀yìn, gbogbo ìran náà sì kú; àwọn ìran tí ó tẹ̀lé wọn kò sì sin Olúwa nítorí wọn kò mọ Olúwa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò mọ ohun tí Olúwa ṣe fún Israẹli.
And so all that generation was gathered vnto their fathers, and another generation arose after them, which neither knewe the Lord, nor yet the works, which he had done for Israel.
11 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì ṣe ohun tí ó burú níwájú Olúwa, wọ́n sì ń sin òrìṣà Baali.
Then the children of Israel did wickedly in the sight of the Lord, and serued Baalim,
12 Wọ́n kọ Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn baba wọn sílẹ̀, ẹni tí ó mú wọn jáde kúrò ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, wọ́n ń tọ àwọn òrìṣà lẹ́yìn, wọ́n sì ń sin àwọn oríṣìíríṣìí òrìṣà àwọn ará ilẹ̀ ibi tí wọ́n ń gbé, wọ́n sì mú Olúwa bínú,
And forsooke ye Lord God of their fathers, which brought them out of the lande of Egypt, and followed other gods, euen the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed vnto them, and prouoked the Lord to anger.
13 nítorí tí wọ́n kọ̀ Olúwa sílẹ̀ àti nítorí pé wọ́n ń sin Baali àti Aṣtoreti.
So they forsooke the Lord, and serued Baal, and Ashtaroth.
14 Nínú ìbínú rẹ̀ sí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli Olúwa fi wọ́n lé àwọn akónisìn lọ́wọ́ tí ó kó wọn ní ẹrú, tí ó sì bà wọ́n jẹ́. Ó sì tà wọ́n fún àwọn ọ̀tá wọn tí ó yí wọn ká àwọn ẹni tí wọn kò le dúró dè láti kọ ojú ìjà sí.
And the wrath of the Lord was hote against Israel, and he deliuered them into the hands of spoylers, that spoyled them, and he sold them into the handes of their enemies rounde about them, so that they could no longer stande before their enemies.
15 Nígbàkígbà tí àwọn Israẹli bá jáde lọ sí ojú ogun láti jà, ọwọ́ Olúwa sì wúwo ní ara wọn, àwọn ọ̀tá a sì borí wọn, àní gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti búra fún wọn. Wọ́n sì wà nínú ìpọ́njú púpọ̀.
Whithersoeuer they went out, the hand of the Lord was sore against them, as ye Lord had sayd, and as the Lord had sworne vnto them: so he punished them sore.
16 Olúwa sì gbé àwọn onídàájọ́ dìde tí ó gbà wọ́n sílẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ àwọn tí ń kó wọn lẹ́rú.
Notwithstanding, the Lord raysed vp Iudges, which deliuered them out of the hands of their oppressours.
17 Síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ wọn kò fi etí sí ti àwọn onídàájọ́ wọn, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n ṣe àgbèrè, wọ́n ń sin òrìṣà. Wọn kò dàbí àwọn baba wọn, kíákíá ni wọ́n yípadà kúrò lọ́nà tí àwọn baba wọ́n ń tọ̀, ọ̀nà ìgbọ́ràn sí àwọn òfin Olúwa.
But yet they would not obey their Iudges: for they went a whoring after other gods, and worshipped them, and turned quickly out of the way, wherein their fathers walked, obeying the commandements of the Lord: they did not so.
18 Nígbà kí ìgbà tí Olúwa bá gbé onídàájọ́ dìde fún wọn, Olúwa máa ń wà pẹ̀lú onídàájọ́ náà, a sì gbà wọ́n kúrò ní ọwọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá wọn ní ìwọ̀n ìgbà tí onídàájọ́ náà bá wà láààyè nítorí àánú Olúwa wà ní ara wọn, nígbà tí wọ́n bá ké ìrora lábẹ́ àwọn tí ń tẹrí wọn ba, tí sì ń fi ìyà jẹ wọ́n.
And when the Lord had raysed them vp Iudges, the Lord was with the Iudge, and deliuered them out of the hande of their enemies all the dayes of the Iudge (for the Lord had compassion on their gronings, because of them that oppressed them and tormented them)
19 Ṣùgbọ́n ní kété tí onídàájọ́ bá ti kú, àwọn ènìyàn náà a sì tún padà sí ọ̀nà ìbàjẹ́ àní ju ti àwọn baba wọn lọ, wọn a tẹ̀lé òrìṣà, wọ́n ń sìn wọ́n, wọn a sì foríbalẹ̀ fún wọn, wọ́n kọ̀ láti yàgò kúrò ní ọ̀nà ibi wọn àti agídí ọkàn wọn.
Yet when the Iudge was dead, they returned, and did worse then their fathers, in following other gods to serue them and worshippe them: they ceased not from their owne inuentions, nor from their rebellious way.
20 Ìbínú Olúwa yóò sì tún ru sí Israẹli a sì wí pé, “Nítorí tí orílẹ̀-èdè yìí ti yẹ májẹ̀mú tí mo fi lélẹ̀ fún àwọn baba ńlá wọn, tí wọn kò sì fetí sí mi,
Wherfore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he sayd, Because this people hath transgressed my couenant, which I commaded their fathers, and hath not obeyed my voyce,
21 Èmi kì yóò lé ọ̀kankan nínú àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí Joṣua fi sílẹ̀ nígbà tí ó kú jáde.
Therefore will I no more cast out before them any of the nations, which Ioshua left when he dyed,
22 Ṣùgbọ́n dípò bẹ́ẹ̀ èmi yóò lo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yìí láti fi dán Israẹli wò, láti mọ̀ bóyá wọ́n yóò pa ọ̀nà Olúwa mọ́ àti pé bóyá wọn ó rìn nínú rẹ̀ bí àwọn baba ńlá wọn ti rìn.”
That through them I may proue Israel, whether they wil keepe the way of the Lord, to walke therein, as their fathers kept it, or not.
23 Nítorí náà Olúwa fi àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè náà sílẹ̀ ní ilẹ̀ náà kò sì lé wọn jáde, tàbí kí ó jẹ́ kí àwọn Israẹli pa wọ́n run, bẹ́ẹ̀ kò sì fi wọ́n lé Joṣua lọ́wọ́.
So the Lord left those nations, and droue them not out immediatly, neither deliuered them into the hand of Ioshua.
