Judges 3
1 Àwọn wọ̀nyí ni àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí Olúwa fi sílẹ̀ láti dán àwọn ìran tuntun ní Israẹli wò, àwọn ìran tí kò ì tí ì ní ìrírí ogun àwọn ará Kenaani.
NOW these are the nations which the Lord left, to prove Israel by them, even as many of Israel as had not known all the wars of Canaan;
2 (Ó ṣe èyí láti fi kọ́ àwọn ìran Israẹli tí kò rí ogun rí níbí a ti ṣe ń jagun).
Only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as before knew nothing thereof;
3 Àwọn ìjòyè ìlú Filistini márààrún, gbogbo àwọn ará Kenaani, àwọn ará Sidoni, àti àwọn ará Hifi tí ń gbé ní àwọn òkè Lebanoni bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti òkè Baali-Hermoni títí dé Lebo-Hamati.
Namely, five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hivites that dwelt in mount Lebanon, from mount Baal-hermon unto the entering in of Hamath.
4 A fi àwọn ènìyàn náà sílẹ̀ láti dán àwọn Israẹli wò bóyá wọn yóò gbọ́rọ̀ sí àwọn òfin Olúwa, èyí tí ó ti fi fún àwọn baba wọn láti ipasẹ̀ Mose.
And they were to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would hearken unto the commandments of the Lord, which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
5 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gbé láàrín àwọn ará Kenaani, àwọn ará Hiti àwọn ará Amori, àwọn ará Peresi, àwọn ará Hifi àti àwọn ará Jebusi.
And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, Hittites, and Amorites, and Perizzites, and Hivites, and Jebusites:
6 Dípò kí wọ́n run àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí, Israẹli ń fẹ́ àwọn ọmọbìnrin wọn, wọ́n sì ń fi àwọn ọmọbìnrin Israẹli fún àwọn ará ilẹ̀ náà ní aya, wọ́n sì ń sin àwọn òrìṣà wọn.
And they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters to their sons, and served their gods.
7 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì ṣe èyí tí ó burú níwájú Olúwa, wọ́n gbàgbé Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn, wọ́n sì ń sin Baali àti Aṣerah.
And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and forgat the Lord their God, and served Baalim and the groves.
8 Ìbínú Olúwa sì ru sí Israẹli tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ó fi jẹ́ kí Kuṣani-Riṣataimu ọba Aramu-Naharaimu bá wọn jà kí ó sì ṣẹ́gun wọn, Israẹli sì ṣe ẹrú rẹ̀ fún ọdún mẹ́jọ.
Therefore the anger of the Lord was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Chushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia: and the children of Israel served Chushan-rishathaim eight years.
9 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí Israẹli kígbe sí Olúwa, Òun gbé olùgbàlà kan dìde fún wọn, ẹni náà ni Otnieli ọmọ Kenasi àbúrò Kalebu tí ó jẹ́ ọkùnrin, ẹni tí ó gbà wọ́n sílẹ̀.
And when the children of Israel cried unto the Lord, the Lord raised up a deliverer to the children of Israel, who delivered them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother.
10 Ẹ̀mí Olúwa bà lé e, òun sì ṣe ìdájọ́ Israẹli, ó sì síwájú wọn lọ sí ogun. Olúwa sì fi Kuṣani-Riṣataimu ọba Aramu lé Otnieli lọ́wọ́, ẹni tí ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sì borí Kuṣani-Riṣataimu.
And the Spirit of the Lord came upon him, and he judged Israel, and went out to war: and the Lord delivered Chushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Chushan-rishathaim.
11 Ilẹ̀ náà sì wà ní àlàáfíà fún ogójì ọdún títí tí Otnieli ọmọ Kenasi sì kú.
And the land had rest forty years. And Othniel the son of Kenaz died.
12 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì tún padà sí ìwà ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn, wọ́n sì ṣe èyí tí ó burú ní iwájú Olúwa, fún ìdí iṣẹ́ búburú yìí, Olúwa fún Egloni, ọba àwọn Moabu ní agbára ní orí Israẹli.
And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord: and the Lord strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done evil in the sight of the Lord.
13 Pẹ̀lú ìfi ọwọ́ ṣowọ́pọ̀ ogun àwọn Ammoni àti àwọn ọmọ-ogun Amaleki ní Egloni gbógun ti àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, wọ́n sì gba ìlú Ọ̀pẹ tí i se Jeriko.
And he gathered unto him the children of Ammon and Amalek, and went and smote Israel, and possessed the city of palm trees.
14 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì sin Egloni ọba Moabu fún ọdún méjìdínlógún.
So the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.
15 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí Israẹli tún ké pe Olúwa, Olúwa rán olùgbàlà kan sí wọn, Ehudu ẹni tí ń lo ọwọ́ òsì, ọmọ Gera ti ẹ̀yà Benjamini. Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli fi ẹ̀bùn rán sí Egloni ọba Moabu.
But when the children of Israel cried unto the Lord, the Lord raised them up a deliverer, Ehud the son of Gera, a Benjamite, a man lefthanded: and by him the children of Israel sent a present unto Eglon the king of Moab.
16 Ehudu sì rọ idà kan olójú méjì, ìgbọ̀nwọ́ kan ní gígùn; òun sì sán an ní abẹ́ aṣọ rẹ̀ ní itan rẹ̀ ọ̀tún.
But Ehud made him a dagger which had two edges, of a cubit length; and he did gird it under his raiment upon his right thigh.
17 Ó sì mú ọrẹ náà wá fún Egloni ọba Moabu, Egloni ẹni tí ó sanra púpọ̀.
And he brought the present unto Eglon king of Moab: and Eglon was a very fat man.
18 Lẹ́yìn tí Ehudu ti fi ẹ̀bùn náà fún ọba tan, ó rán àwọn tí ó kó ẹrú náà wá lọ sí ọ̀nà wọn.
And when he had made an end to offer the present, he sent away the people that bare the present.
19 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí òun fúnra rẹ̀ dé ibi ère fínfín tí ó wà létí Gilgali, ó padà sí Egloni, ó sì wí pé, “Ọba, mo ní ọ̀rọ̀ àṣírí láti bá ọ sọ.” Ọba sì wí pé, “Ẹ dákẹ́!” Gbogbo àwọn tí ń ṣọ sì jáde síta kúrò ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀.
But he himself turned again from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, I have a secret errand unto thee, O king: who said, Keep silence. And all that stood by him went out from him.
20 Ehudu lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ níbi tí ó ti jókòó ní iyàrá ìtura rẹ̀, Ehudu sì wí fún un pé, “Mo ní ọ̀rọ̀ kan fún ọ láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run.” Bí ọba sì ti dìde ní orí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀,
And Ehud came unto him; and he was sitting in a summer parlour, which he had for himself alone. And Ehud said, I have a message from God unto thee. And he arose out of his seat.
21 Ehudu fi ọwọ́ òsì rẹ̀ yọ idà láti ibi itan ọ̀tún rẹ̀ ó sì fi gún ọba nínú ikùn rẹ̀.
And Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the dagger from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly:
22 Àti idà àti èèkù rẹ̀ sì wọlé ó sì yọ ní ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀. Ehudu kò yọ idà náà, ọ̀rá sì bo idà náà.
And the haft also went in after the blade; and the fat closed upon the blade, so that he could not draw the dagger out of his belly; and the dirt came out.
23 Ehudu ti àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn ní àtì-sínú òun sì bá yàrá òkè jáde, ó sì sálọ.
Then Ehud went forth through the porch, and shut the doors of the parlour upon him, and locked them.
24 Lẹ́yìn tí ó ti lọ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ ọba dé, ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí wọ́n rí ìlẹ̀kùn yàrá òkè ní títì, wọ́n rò pé, “Bóyá ó wà ní ilé ìyàgbẹ́ ní yàrá nínú ilé.”
When he was gone out, his servants came; and when they saw that, behold, the doors of the parlour were locked, they said, Surely he covereth his feet in his summer chamber.
25 Nígbà tí wọ́n dúró dé ibi pé ó jẹ́ ìyanu fún wọn, wọ́n mú kọ́kọ́rọ́, wọ́n sì ṣí ìlẹ̀kùn. Níbẹ̀ ni wọ́n ti rí Olúwa wọn tí ó ti ṣubú, ó sì ti kú.
And they tarried till they were ashamed: and, behold, he opened not the doors of the parlour; therefore they took a key, and opened them: and, behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth.
26 Nígbà tí wọ́n dúró tí wọn sì ń retí, Ehudu ti sálọ. Ó ti gba ibi tí wọ́n ti ń gbẹ́ òkúta lére, ó sì sálọ sí Seira.
And Ehud escaped while they tarried, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped unto Seirath.
27 Nígbà tí ó dé ibẹ̀, ó fọn ìpè ní orí òkè Efraimu, àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì ba sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ láti òkè náà wá, òun sì wà níwájú wọn.
And it came to pass, when he was come, that he blew a trumpet in the mountain of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the mount, and he before them.
28 Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ máa tẹ̀lé mi, nítorí Olúwa ti fi Moabu ọ̀tá yín lé yín lọ́wọ́.” Wọ́n sì tẹ̀lé e, wọ́n sì gba ìwọdò Jordani tí ó lọ sí ilẹ̀ Moabu, wọn ò jẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni kọjá.
And he said unto them, Follow after me: for the Lord hath delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand. And they went down after him, and took the fords of Jordan toward Moab, and suffered not a man to pass over.
29 Ní báyìí, wọ́n ti pa tó ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá ọkùnrin ará Moabu tí wọ́n jẹ́ alágbára àti onígboyà ènìyàn, kò sí ènìyàn tí ó sálà.
And they slew of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, all lusty, and all men of valour; and there escaped not a man.
30 Ní ọjọ́ náà ni Israẹli ṣẹ́gun àwọn ará Moabu, ilẹ̀ náà sì wà ní àlàáfíà fún ọgọ́rin ọdún.
So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest fourscore years.
31 Lẹ́yìn Ehudu, ni Ṣamgari ọmọ Anati ẹni tí ó pa ẹgbẹ̀ta Filistini pẹ̀lú ọ̀pá tí a fi ń da akọ màlúù, òun pẹ̀lú sì gba Israẹli kúrò nínú ìpọ́njú.
And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath, which slew of the Philistines six hundred men with an ox goad: and he also delivered Israel.
