And these [are] the nations which Jehovah left, to try Israel by them, all who have 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 for the sake of the generations of the sons of Israel's knowing, to teach them war, only those who formerly have not known them) —
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.
five princes of the Philistines, and all the Canaanite, and the Zidonian, and the Hivite inhabiting 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 are to prove Israel by them, to know whether they obey the commands of Jehovah that 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 sons of Israel have dwelt in the midst of the Canaanite, the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite,
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 take their daughters to them for wives, and their daughters have given to their sons, and they serve 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 sons of Israel do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and forget Jehovah their God, and serve the Baalim and the shrines.
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.
And the anger of Jehovah burneth against Israel, and He selleth them into the hand of Chushan-Rishathaim king of Aram-Naharaim, and the sons of Israel serve 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 the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah, and Jehovah raiseth a saviour to the sons of Israel, and he saveth them — Othniel 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 Jehovah is upon him, and he judgeth Israel, and goeth out to battle, and Jehovah giveth unto his hand Chushan-Rishathaim king of Aram, and strong is his hand against Chushan-Rishathaim;
11 Ilẹ̀ náà sì wà ní àlàáfíà fún ogójì ọdún títí tí Otnieli ọmọ Kenasi sì kú.
and the land resteth forty years. And Othniel son of Kenaz dieth,
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 sons of Israel add to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah; and Jehovah strengtheneth Eglon king of Moab against Israel, because that they have done the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah;
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 gathereth unto him the Bene-Ammon and Amalek, and goeth and smiteth Israel, and they possess the city of palms;
14 Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì sin Egloni ọba Moabu fún ọdún méjìdínlógún.
and the sons of Israel serve Eglon 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.
And the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah, and Jehovah raiseth to them a saviour, Ehud son of Gera, a Benjamite (a man — shut of his right hand), and the sons of Israel send by his hand a present to Eglon 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.
and Ehud maketh for himself a sword, and it hath two mouths (a cubit [is] its length), and he girdeth it under his long robe on his right thigh;
17 Ó sì mú ọrẹ náà wá fún Egloni ọba Moabu, Egloni ẹni tí ó sanra púpọ̀.
and he bringeth near the present to Eglon king of Moab, and Eglon [is] 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 it cometh to pass, when he hath finished to bring near the present, that he sendeth away the people bearing 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.
and he himself hath turned back from the graven images which [are] at Gilgal, and saith, 'A secret word I have unto thee, O king;' and he saith, 'Hush!' and go out from him do all those standing by 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 hath come unto him, and he is sitting in the upper chamber of the wall which he hath for himself, and Ehud saith, 'A word of God I have unto thee;' and he riseth from off the throne;
21 Ehudu fi ọwọ́ òsì rẹ̀ yọ idà láti ibi itan ọ̀tún rẹ̀ ó sì fi gún ọba nínú ikùn rẹ̀.
and Ehud putteth forth his left hand, and taketh the sword from off his right thigh, and striketh 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 goeth in after the blade, and the fat shutteth on the blade, that he hath not drawn the sword out of his belly, and it goeth out at the fundament.
23 Ehudu ti àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn ní àtì-sínú òun sì bá yàrá òkè jáde, ó sì sálọ.
And Ehud goeth out at the porch, and shutteth the doors of the upper chamber upon him, and hath bolted [it];
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.”
and he hath gone out, and his servants have come in, and look, and lo, the doors of the upper chamber are bolted, and they say, 'He is only covering his feet in the inner chamber of the wall.'
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 stay till confounded, and lo, he is not opening the doors of the upper chamber, and they take the key, and open, and lo, their lord is fallen to the earth — dead.
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 during their tarrying, and hath passed by the images, and is escaped to 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 cometh to pass, in his coming in, that he bloweth with a trumpet in the hill-country of Ephraim, and go down with him do the sons of Israel from the hill-country, 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 saith unto them, 'Pursue after me, for Jehovah hath given your enemies, the Moabites, into your hand;' and they go down after him, and capture the passages of the Jordan towards Moab, and have not permitted 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 smite Moab at that time, about ten thousand men, all robust, and every one a man of valour, and not a man hath escaped,
30 Ní ọjọ́ náà ni Israẹli ṣẹ́gun àwọn ará Moabu, ilẹ̀ náà sì wà ní àlàáfíà fún ọgọ́rin ọdún.
and Moab is humbled in that day under the hand of Israel; and the land resteth eighty 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 hath been Shamgar son of Anath, and he smiteth the Philistines — six hundred men — with an ox-goad, and he saveth — he also — Israel.
