< 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.
Ary taorian’ i Abimeleka dia nitsangana hamonjy ny Isiraely Tola, zanak’ i Dodo, lehilahy avy tamin’ ny Isakara; ary mponina tao Samira any amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima izy.
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.
Ary nitsara ny Isiraely telo amby roa-polo taona izy, dia maty ka nalevina tao Samira.
3 And after him came Jair the Gileadite, who was judge over Israel for twenty-two years.
Ary nitsangana nandimby azy Jaïra Gileadita ka nitsara ny Isiraely roa amby roa-polo taona.
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.
Ary nanana zanakalahy telo-polo izay nitaingina zana-boriky telo-polo izy, ary izy ireo nanana tanàna telo-polo any amin’ ny tany Gileada; ary atao hoe Havota-jaïra mandraka androany ireo.
5 And at the death of Jair his body was put to rest in the earth in Kamon.
Dia maty Jaïra ka nalevina tany Kamona.
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.
Ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely dia nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah indray ka nanompo ireo Bala sy Astarta sy ny andriamanitr’ i Syria sy ny andriamanitr’ i Sidona sy ny andriamanitr’ i Moaba sy ny andriamanitry ny taranak’ i Amona ary ny andriamanitry ny Filistina, dia nahafoy an’ i Jehovah izy ka tsy nanompo Azy.
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.
Dia nirehitra tamin’ ny Isiraely ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah, ka nivarotra azy ho eo an-tànan’ ny Filistina sy ho eo an-tànan’ ny taranak’ i Amona Izy.
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.
Ary nampahory sy nanorotoro ny Zanak’ Isiraely ireo tamin’ izany taona izany: valo ambin’ ny folo taona no nampahoriany ny Zanak’ Isiraely rehetra, izay tany an-dafin’ i Jordana, tany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Amorita any Gileada.
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.
Ary nita an’ i Jordana ny taranak’ i Amona mba hiady koa amin’ ny Joda sy ny Benjamina ary ny taranak’ i Efraima; ka dia nahantra indrindra ny Isiraely.
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.
Dia nitaraina tamin’ i Jehovah ny Zanak’ Isiraely ka nanao hoe: Efa nanota taminao izahay, satria efa nahafoy an’ Andriamanitray ka nanompo ireo Bala.
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
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely: Moa tsy efa namonjy anareo tamin’ ny tanan’ ny Egyptiana sy ny Amorita sy ny taranak’ i Amona ary ny Filistina va Aho?
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?
Ary nampahory anareo koa ny Sidoniana sy ny Amalekita ary ny Maonita, ka nitaraina tamiko ianareo, dia novonjeko tamin’ ny tànany.
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.
Nefa ianareo nahafoy Ahy ka nanompo andriamani-kafa; koa izany kosa no tsy hamonjeko anareo intsony.
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.
Mandehana, ka mitaraina amin’ ireo andriamanitra efa nofidinareo; aoka ireo no hamonjy anareo amin’ ny andron’ ny fahantranareo.
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.
Ary hoy ny Zanak’ Isiraely tamin’ i Jehovah: Efa nanota izahay; ataovy aminay izay rehetra sitrakao; kanefa mba vonjeo ihany izahay anio.
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.
Dia nanary ireo andriamani-kafa tao aminy izy ka nanompo an’ i Jehovah; dia tsy nahatsindry ny fanahiny intsony Jehovah noho ny fahantran’ ny Isiraely.
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.
Dia nivory ny taranak’ i Amona ka nitoby tany Gileada. Ary nivory kosa ny Zanak’ Isiraely ka nitoby tany Mizpa.
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.
Dia nifampiera ny olona, dia ireo andrianan’ i Gileada, hoe: Iza no lehilahy handeha voalohany hiady amin’ ny taranak’ i Amona? dia ho lohany amin’ ny mponina rehetra any Gileada izy.
