Judges 10

1 After Abimelech, Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, arose to save Israel. He lived in Shamir in the hill country of Ephraim.

Mgbe Abimelek nwụsịrị, Tola nwa Pua, nwa nwa Dodo, biliri ịzọpụta Izrel. O si nʼebo Isaka pụta. Ọ bụkwa nʼobodo Shamia ka o bi, nʼime obodo e wukwasịrị nʼelu ugwu Ifrem.

2 He judged Israel twenty-three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir.

O kpere Izrel ikpe iri afọ abụọ na atọ. Mgbe ọ nwụrụ, e liri ya na Shamia.

3 After him Jair, the Gileadite, arose. He judged Israel twenty-two years.

Onye ikpe ọzọ nọchiri ya bụ Jaịa, onye si Gilead pụta. O kpere Izrel ikpe iri afọ abụọ na abụọ.

4 He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkey colts. They had thirty cities, which are called Havvoth Jair to this day, which are in the land of Gilead.

O nwere ụmụ ndị ikom iri atọ, ndị na-agba ịnyịnya ibu iri atọ. Ha nwekwara obodo iri atọ nke aka ha na Gilead, nke a na-akpọkwa Havọt Jaịa ruo taa.

5 Jair died, and was buried in Kamon.

Ma mgbe Jaịa nwụrụ, e liri ya na Kamon.

6 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, and served the Baals, the Ashtaroth, the gods of Syria, the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines. They abandoned the LORD, and did not serve him.

Ọzọkwa, ụmụ Izrel mere ihe jọrọ njọ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ha fere chi Baal na Ashtọret, chi ndị Aram, chi ndị Saịdọn, nke ndị Moab, nke ndị Amọn, na chi ndị Filistia ofufe. Ndị Izrel hapụrụ Onyenwe anyị, ha efekwaghị ya ofufe.

7 The LORD’s anger burned against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of the Philistines and into the hand of the children of Ammon.

Nke a mere ka Onyenwe anyị wee iwe megide ha. O nyefere ha nʼaka ndị Filistia na ndị Amọn,

8 They troubled and oppressed the children of Israel that year. For eighteen years they oppressed all the children of Israel that were beyond the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.

ndị mekpara ha ahụ, chie ha ọnụ nʼala. Afọ iri na asatọ ka ndị Filistia megburu ndị Izrel bi nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ osimiri Jọdan, nʼime ala ndị Amọrait, ya bụ na Gilead.

9 The children of Ammon passed over the Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim, so that Israel was very distressed.

Ndị Amọn gafekwara osimiri Jọdan ibuso ndị Juda, ndị Benjamin na ndị Ifrem agha. Ihe ndị a mere ka ọnọdụ ụmụ Izrel dị nnọọ njọ nke ukwuu.

10 The children of Israel cried to the LORD, saying, “We have sinned against you, even because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Baals.”

Nʼikpeazụ, ụmụ Izrel tikuru Onyenwe anyị mkpu akwa, rịọọ ya ka ọ gbapụta ha. Ha kwupụtara sị, “Anyị emehiela megide gị, anyị ahapụla gị Chineke anyị, fee arụsị Baal ofufe.”

11 The LORD said to the children of Israel, “Did not I save you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines?

Ma Onyenwe anyị sịrị ndị Izrel, “Mgbe ndị Ijipt, ndị Amọrait, ndị Amọn, ndị Filistia,

12 The Sidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, oppressed you; and you cried to me, and I saved you out of their hand.

ndị Saịdọn, ndị Amalek na ndị Maon kpagburu unu; unu tikuru m mkpu akwa inyere unu aka, ọ bụ na m anapụtaghị unu site nʼaka ha?

13 Yet you have forsaken me and served other gods. Therefore I will save you no more.

Ma unu nọgidere na-agbakụta m azụ oge niile, na-efe chi ndị ọzọ ofufe. Ya mere, gawaranụ onwe unu, agaghị m anapụtakwa unu ọzọ.

14 Go and cry to the gods which you have chosen. Let them save you in the time of your distress!”

Kpọkuonụ chi ndị ahụ bụ ndị unu họpụtaara onwe unu, ka ha zọpụta unu mgbe ọbụla nsogbu dakwasịrị unu!”

15 The children of Israel said to the LORD, “We have sinned! Do to us whatever seems good to you; only deliver us, please, today.”

Ma ndị Izrel sịrị Onyenwe anyị, “Anyị emehiela. Mee anyị ihe ọbụla i chere dị gị mma, ma biko, zọpụta anyị taa.”

16 They put away the foreign gods from among them and served the LORD; and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.

Ha sitere nʼetiti ha wezuga chi ala ọzọ niile dị iche iche, fee Onyenwe anyị ofufe. O nweghịkwa ike nagide ọnọdụ ọjọọ ndị Izrel gaa nʼihu.

17 Then the children of Ammon were gathered together and encamped in Gilead. The children of Israel assembled themselves together and encamped in Mizpah.

Mgbe a kpọkọtara ndị Amọn maka ibu agha, ha mara ụlọ ikwu ha na Gilead, ndị Izrel zukọtakwara maa ụlọ ikwu nke ha na Mizpa.

18 The people, the princes of Gilead, said to one another, “Who is the man who will begin to fight against the children of Ammon? He shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.”

Ndị ndu obodo Gilead gwarịtara onwe ha sị, “Onye ọbụla ga-amalite agha megide ndị Amọn ga-abụ onyeisi ndị niile bi na Gilead.”
