Judges 10

1 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.

E depois de Abimelech, se levantou, para livrar a Israel, Tola, filho de Puah, filho de Dodo, homem de Issacar: e habitava em Samir, na montanha de Ephraim.

2 He was judge over Israel for twenty-three years; and at his death his body was put to rest in the earth in Shamir.

E julgou a Israel vinte e três anos: e morreu, e foi sepultado em Samir.

3 And after him came Jair the Gileadite, who was judge over Israel for twenty-two years.

E depois dele se levantou Jair, gileadita, e julgou a Israel vinte e dois anos.

4 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.

E tinha este trinta filhos, que cavalgavam sobre trinta jumentos; e tinham trinta cidades, a que chamaram Havoth-jair, até ao dia de hoje; as quais estão na terra de Gilead.

5 And at the death of Jair his body was put to rest in the earth in Kamon.

E morreu Jair, e foi sepultado em Camon.

6 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.

Então tornaram os filhos de Israel a fazer o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor, e serviram aos baalins, e a Astaroth, e aos deuses da Síria, e aos deuses de Sidon, e aos deuses de Moab, e aos deuses dos filhos de Ammon, e aos deuses dos philisteus: e deixaram ao Senhor, e não o serviram.

7 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.

E a ira do Senhor se acendeu contra Israel: e vendeu-os em mão dos philisteus, e em mão dos filhos de Ammon.

8 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.

E naquele mesmo ano oprimiram e vexaram aos filhos de Israel: dezoito anos oprimiram a todos os filhos de Israel que estavam de além do Jordão, na terra dos amorreus, que está em Gilead.

9 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.

Até os filhos de Ammon passaram o Jordão, para pelejar também contra Judá, e contra Benjamin, e contra a casa de Ephraim: de maneira que Israel ficou mui angustiado.

10 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.

Então os filhos de Israel clamaram ao Senhor, dizendo: Contra ti havemos pecado, em que deixamos a nosso Deus, e em que servimos aos baalins.

11 And the Lord said to the children of Israel, Were not the Egyptians and the Amorites and the children of Ammon and the Philistines

Porém o Senhor disse aos filhos de Israel: Porventura dos egípcios, e dos amorreus, e dos filhos de Ammon, e dos philisteus,

12 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?

E dos sidônios, e dos amalequitas, e dos maonitas, que vos oprimiam, quando a mim chamastes, não vos livrei eu então da sua mão?

13 But, for all this, you have given me up and have been servants to other gods: so I will be your saviour no longer.

Contudo vós me deixastes a mim, e servistes a outros deuses: pelo que não vos livrarei mais.

14 Go, send up your cry for help to the gods of your selection; let them be your saviours in the time of your trouble.

Andai, e clamai aos deuses que escolhestes: que vos livrem eles no tempo do vosso aperto.

15 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.

Mas os filhos de Israel disseram ao Senhor: pecamos, faze-nos conforme a tudo quanto te parecer bem aos teus olhos; tão somente te rogamos que nos livres neste dia.

16 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.

E tiraram os deuses alheios do meio de si, e serviram ao Senhor: então se angustiou a sua alma por causa do trabalho de Israel.

17 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.

E os filhos de Ammon se convocaram, e se puseram em campo em Gilead: e também os de Israel se congregaram, e se puseram em campo em Mispah.

18 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.

Então o povo, os príncipes de Gilead disseram uns aos outros: Quem será o varão que começará a pelejar contra os filhos de Ammon? ele será por Cabeça de todos os moradores de Gilead
