Judges 10

1 And after Abimelech there arose to defend Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in mount Ephraim.

Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ki mui ia ʻApimeleki ʻa Tola ko e foha ʻo Pua, ko e foha ʻo Toto, ko e tangata ʻo ʻIsaka, ke ne fakamoʻui ʻa ʻIsileli; pea naʻe nofo ia ʻi Samili ʻi he moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi.

2 And he judged Israel twenty and three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir.

Pea naʻa ne fakamaauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma tolu, pea pekia ia, pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi Samili.

3 And after him arose Jair, a Gileadite, and judged Israel twenty and two years.

Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa Saili ko e tangata ʻo Kiliati, pea ne fakamaau ʻe ia ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma ua.

4 And he had thirty sons that rode on thirty young donkeys, and they had thirty cities, which are called Havothjair to this day, which are in the land of Gilead.

Pea naʻe toko tolungofulu hono foha naʻa nau heka ʻi he ngaahi ʻasi mui ʻe tolungofulu, pea naʻe tolungofulu ʻenau kolo, ʻaia ʻoku ui ko e ngaahi kolo ʻo Saili, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he fonua ʻo Kiliati.

5 And Jair died, and was buried in Camon.

Pea naʻe pekia ʻa Saili, pea tanu ia ʻi Kamoni.

6 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD, and served not him.

Pea naʻe toe fai kovi ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻonau tauhi ʻa Peali mo ʻAsitelote, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo Silia, pea mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo Saitoni, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo Moape, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kau Filisitia, ʻonau liʻaki ʻa Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau tauhi ia.

7 And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hands of the Philistines, and into the hands of the children of Ammon.

Pea naʻe tupu ai ke vela ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ki ʻIsileli, pea ne fakatau kinautolu ki he nima ʻoe kau Filisitia, pea ki he nima ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.

8 And that year they afflicted and oppressed the children of Israel: eighteen years, all the children of Israel that were on the other side of Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.

Pea naʻe hongofulu taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe valu ʻi he kuonga ko ia mo ʻenau taʻomia ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli naʻe nofo ʻi he potu ki kō atu ʻi Sioatani ʻi he fonua ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Kiliati.

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

Naʻe ʻalu foki ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni ʻo fokotuʻu atu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani ke tauʻi ʻa Siuta, pea mo Penisimani, pea mo e fale ʻo ʻIfalemi: ko ia naʻe mamahi lahi ai ʻa ʻIsileli.

10 And the children of Israel cried to the LORD, saying, We have sinned against thee, both because we have forsaken our God, and also served Baalim.

Pea naʻe tangi ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Kuo mau fai angahala kiate koe, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻemau liʻaki homau ʻOtua, mo ʻemau tauhi foki ʻa Peali.”

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

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, “ʻIkai naʻaku fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai ʻIsipite, pea mei he kau ʻAmoli, pea mei he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea mei he kau Filisitia?

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

Pea naʻe taʻomia foki ʻakimoutolu ʻe he kau Saitoni, mo e kau ʻAmaleki, pea mo e kau Maoni: pea ne mou tangi kiate au, pea ne u fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei honau nima.

13 Yet ye have forsaken me, and served other gods: therefore I will deliver you no more.

Ka kuo mou liʻaki au ke tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe: ko ia ʻe ʻikai te u kei fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu.

14 Go and cry to the gods which ye have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation.

‌ʻAlu ʻo tangi ki he ngaahi ʻotua ʻaia kuo mou fili: tuku kenau fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻo hoʻomou tuʻutāmaki lahi.”

15 And the children of Israel said to the LORD, We have sinned: do thou to us whatever seemeth good to thee; deliver us only, we pray thee, this day.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Sihova, “Kuo mau fai angahala: ke ke fai ʻe koe ʻaia ʻoku lelei kiate koe kiate kimautolu: ka ʻoku mau kole kiate koe ke ke fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu he ʻaho ni.”

16 And they put away the foreign gods from among them, and served the LORD: and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.

Pea naʻa nau tukuange ʻiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe naʻe ʻiate kinautolu, ʻonau tauhi ʻa Sihova: pea naʻe mamahi hono laumālie ʻi he mamahi ʻa ʻIsileli.

17 Then the children of Ammon were gathered together, and encamped in Gilead. And the children of Israel assembled themselves together, and encamped in Mizpeh.

Pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, ʻonau ʻapitanga ʻi Kiliati. Pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻonau ʻapitanga ʻi Misipa.

18 And the people and princes of Gilead said one to another, What man is he that will begin to fight against the children of Ammon? he shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.

Pea naʻe fepehēʻaki ʻe he kakai mo e houʻeiki ʻo Kiliati, “Ko hai ʻae tangata ʻe kamata ʻae tau ki he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni? ʻE hoko ia ko e ʻeiki ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo Kiliati.”
