Bisisu 3
1 Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu amo da Ga: ina: ne soge ganodini gegesu hame ba: i, amo dunu adoba: ma: ne, Hina Gode da Ga: ina: ne fi mogili gadili hame sefasi.
Now Yahweh left these nations to test Israel, namely everyone in Israel who had not experienced any of the wars fought in Canaan.
2 E da Isala: ili fi gaheabolo amo da gegesu hame ba: i ilima gegesu hou olelema: ne, amo fi gadili hame sefasi.
(He did this to teach warfare to the new generation of the Israelites who had not known it before.)
3 Ga: ina: ne soge fi da soge amoga esalebe ba: i, da haguduga dedei diala. Filisidini moilai bai bagade biyale gala, Ga: ina: ne dunu huluane, Saidonia dunu amola Haifaide dunu (ilia soge alalo da Ba: ile Hemone Goumi asili Ha: ima: de Goumi ahoasu doaga: i. Amo soge da Lebanone Goumi soge)
These are the nations: the five kings from the Philistines, all the Canaanites, the Sidonians, and the Hivites who lived in the Lebanon mountains, from Mount Baal Hermon to Hamath Pass.
4 Hina Gode da amo dunu fi ilia Isala: ili dunu ilima adoba: ma: ne, Isala: ili soge ganodini yolesi. Isala: ili dunu ilia da sema amo Hina Gode da Mousesema i, amola e da ilia aowalali ilima alofele olelei, amo ilia fa: no bobogema: beyale adoba: musa: yolesi.
These nations were left as a means by which Yahweh would test Israel, to confirm whether they would obey the commands he gave their ancestors through Moses.
5 Amaiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da dunu fi eno amo Ga: ina: ne, Hidaide, A:moulaide, Belesaide, Haifaide amola Yebiusaide amo gilisili fi galu.
So the people of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.
6 Ilia da gilisili uda lasu hou hamosu amola amo dunu ilia ‘gode’ liligi ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu.
Their daughters they took to be their wives, and their own daughters they gave to their sons, and they served their gods.
7 Isala: ili dunu da ilia Hina Gode gogolei. Ilia da wadela: le hamosu amola ilia ogogosu ‘gode’ loboga hamoi liligi amo Ba: ile amola Asila, amoma nodone sia: ne gadosu.
The people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh and forgot Yahweh their God. They worshiped the Baals and the Asherahs.
8 Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da Isala: ili fi ilia hou ba: beba: le, ougi bagade ba: i. E da Gusia: ne Lisada: ime (Mesoubouda: imia hina bagade) ili hasalasima: ne, amo ea logo doasi dagoi. E da Isala: ili dunuma ode godoane amoga hina bagade esalu.
Therefore, the anger of Yahweh was set on fire against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Cushan-Rishathaim king of Aram Naharaim. The people of Israel served Cushan-Rishathaim for eight years.
9 Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da Hina Godema dinanuwane wele sia: beba: le, E da gaga: su dunu ilima asunasi. Amo da Odeniele, Ga: ilebe eya Ginase egefe.
When the people of Israel called out to Yahweh, Yahweh raised up someone who would come to help the people of Israel, and who would rescue them: Othniel son of Kenaz (Caleb's younger brother).
10 Hina Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala da ea dogo ganodini aligila sa: ili, e da Isala: ili bisisu dunu hamoi. Odeniele da gegemusa: asili, amola Hina Gode da fidibiba: le, e da Mesoubouda: imia hina bagade amo hasalasili, sefasi.
Yahweh's Spirit empowered him, and he judged Israel and he went out to war. Yahweh gave him victory over Cushan-Rishathaim king of Aram. The hand of Othniel defeated Cushan-Rishathaim.
11 Isala: ili soge da ode40amoga, olofosu ba: i dagoi. Amalalu, Odeniele da bogoi.
The land had peace for forty years. Then Othniel son of Kenaz died.
12 Isala: ili dunu da bu eno Hina Godema wadela: le hamoi. Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da Moua: be hina bagade ea dio amo Egelone amo fidibiba: le, ea gasa da Isala: ili fi ilia gasa baligi dagoi.
After that, the Israelites again did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and Yahweh gave strength to Eglon king of Moab to overpower the Israelites.
13 Egelone da A: mounaide dunu amola A: malege dunu gilisili, Isala: ili fi hasalasi. Ilia da Yeligou moilai bai bagade (amo ganodini gumudi sala agoai bagohame ba: i) amo suguli lai dagoi.
Eglon joined with the Ammonites and the Amalekites and they went and defeated Israel, and they took possession of the City of Palms.
14 Egelone da Isala: ili dunu ilima ode 18amoga ouligisu esalu.
The people of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab for eighteen years.
15 Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da dinanuwane, Hina Godema wele sia: beba: le, E da gaga: su dunu eno ilima asunasi. Ea dio amo da Ihade. E da ea lobo fofadi amoga hawa: hamosu. E da Bediamini fi dunu Gila amo egefe. Isala: ili dunu da Ihade, amo Moua: be hina bagade Egelone ema udigili su iasu ima: ne asunasi.
When the people of Israel called out to Yahweh, Yahweh raised up someone who would help them, Ehud son of Gera, a Benjamite, a left-handed man. The people of Israel sent him, with their tribute payment, to Eglon king of Moab.
16 Ihade da gegesu gobihei bagade (ea sedade defei da 50sedamida) fe la: idi amola la: idi mei amo hamone, ea lobodafa afoga ea abula haguduga wamo la: gi dagoi.
Ehud made himself a sword that had two edges, one cubit in length; he strapped it on under his clothing on his right thigh.
17 Amalalu, e da su iasu liligi amo Egelonema gaguli asi. Egelone da dunu basului bagade.
He gave the tribute payment to King Eglon of Moab. (Now Eglon was a very fat man.)
18 Ihade da iasu liligi Egelonema ia dagoiba: le, e da dunu amo da su liligi gaguli misi, ilima ilia da ilia moilaiga bu masa: ne sia: i.
After Ehud had presented the tribute payment, he left with those who had carried it in.
19 Be Ihade hisu da hedofai igi Giliga: le moilai gadenene amoga doaga: le, Egelonema buhagili, ema amane sia: i, “Hina bagade! Na da dima wamolegei sia: sia: mu galebe.” Amaiba: le, hina bagade da ea hawa: hamosu dunuma amane sia: i, “Masa! Ania fawane esalumu.” Amola ilia da huluane gadili asi.
As for Ehud himself, however, when he reached the place where the carved images were made near Gilgal, he turned and went back, and he said, “I have a secret message for you, my king.” Eglon said, “Silence!” So all those serving him left the room.
20 Amalalu, hina bagade hisu da anegagi sesei ea diasu gadodili diala amo ganodini fibi ba: i. Ihade da ema asili, amane sia: i, “Na da Gode Ea sia: dima adomu.” Hina bagade da wa: legadoi.
Ehud came to him. The king was sitting by himself, alone in the coolness of the upper room. Ehud said, “I have a message from God for you.” The king got up out of his seat.
21 Ihade da ea lobo fofadini amoga gobihei bagade amo duga: le gadole, Egelone ea hagomo damana sone,
Ehud reached with his left hand and took the sword from his right thigh, and he stabbed it into the king's body.
22 badofale, gadili asi. Amaiba: le, Egelone ea sefe da bosonagala: le gobihei geda amo dedeboi ba: i. Be gobihei da mae duga: gala: le, medene gasaga gagulaligi dialebe ba: i.
The hilt of the sword also went into him following the blade. The tip of the sword came out of his back and the fat closed over it, for Ehud did not pull the sword out of his belly.
23 Amalalu, Ihade da gadili asili, diasu logo noga: le ga: sili, fisili asi.
Then Ehud went out on the porch and closed the doors of the upper room behind him and locked them.
24 Egelone hawa: hamosu dunu da misini, logo ga: i dagoi ba: beba: le, hina bagade da fonobahadi diasuga asi dagoi, dawa: i galu.
After Ehud had gone, the king's servants came; they saw that the doors of the upper room were locked, so they thought, “Surely he is relieving himself in the coolness of the upper room.”
25 Ilia da ouesalu, be hina bagade da logo hedolo hame doasiba: le, ilia da gi lale, logo doasi. Amalalu, ilia hina bagade amo hada: i fa: i amoga diasa: ili, bogoi dialebe ba: i.
They were growing more concerned until they felt they were neglecting their duty when the king still did not open the doors to the upper room. So they took the key and opened them, and there lay their master, fallen to the floor, dead.
26 Ilia da ouesaloba, Ihade da hobea: i dagoi. E da Giliga: le hedofai igi amo baligili, Sia: ila sogebiga doaga: i.
While the servants were waiting, wondering what they should do, Ehud escaped and passed beyond the place where there were carved images of idols, and so he escaped to Seirah.
27 E da amogawi Ifala: ime agolo sogega doaga: loba, e da Isala: ili dunu gegemusa: gilisima: ne, dalabede dusu. Amalalu, e da Isala: ili dunu bisili oule asili, ilia da agolo soge fisili, umiga sa: i.
When he arrived, he blew a trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim. Then the people of Israel went down with him from the hills, and he was leading them.
28 E amane sia: i, “Nama fa: no bobogema. Hina Gode da dilia ha lai dunu amo Moua: be dunu, ili hasalasima: ne hamoi dagoi.” Amaiba: le, ilia da Ihade amoma fa: no bobogele, ilia da hano degesu sogebi (amoga Moua: be dunu da Yodane degemusa: dawa: i) amo lai dagoi. Amalalu, ilia da Moua: be dunu huluane fane legei dagoi. Moua: be dunu afadafa da Yodane Hano hame degei.
He said to them, “Follow me, for Yahweh is about to defeat your enemies, the Moabites.” They followed him and they captured the fords of the Jordan across from the Moabites, and they did not allow anyone to cross the river.
29 Amo esoha, ilia da Moua: be dadi gagui dunu noga: i amo 10,000 agoane medole legei dagoi. Afae da hame hobea: i.
At that time they killed about ten thousand men of Moab, and all were strong and capable men. Not one escaped.
30 Amo esoha, Isala: ili dunu da Moua: be fi ili hasali dagoi. Amalalu, ilia soge ganodini, ilia da ode 80 olofosu fawane ba: i.
So that day Moab was subdued by the strength of Israel, and the land had rest for eighty years.
31 Fa: no, bisisu dunu eno Sia: maga (A: ina: de egefe) da Isala: ili dunu ouligisu. E amola da Isala: ili dunu gaga: i. E da Filisidini dunu 600 agoane amo bulamagau masa: ne sesu ifa, amoga fane legei.
After Ehud the next judge was Shamgar son of Anath who killed 600 men of the Philistines with a stick used to goad cattle. He also delivered Israel from danger.
