Jasi Vahere 3

1 Hagi ko'ma Kenani mopafima ha'ma hu'naza zama onke'naza Israeli vahetmima rezamaheno kenaku, Ra Anumzamo'a mago'a vahera zamatrege'za Kenani mopafina mani'naze.

Now Yahweh left these nations to test Israel, namely everyone in Israel who had not experienced any of the wars fought in Canaan.

2 Hagi Israeli vahe'ma efore hutere hu'za henkama esaza vahetami Ra Anumzamo'a ha'ma hanaza avu'avaza rempi huzaminaku Kenani mopafi vahera zamahenatitre vagaore'ne.

(He did this to teach warfare to the new generation of the Israelites who had not known it before.)

3 Ama'na kumatmimpi nemaniza vahetami zamatrege'za mani'naze. Faifu'a kumapima nemani'za Filistia vaheki, maka Kenani vaheki, Saidoni vaheki, Hivi vahe'ma Lebanoni agonamofoma Bal-Hermoniti'ma vuno Hamat kumate'ma uhanati'nea vahe'mokizmi ozamahe zamatrege'za mani'naze.

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 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'ma Mosesema ami'nea kasegea avaririgahazafi ovaririgosazafi huno Israeli vahe'ma rezamaheno kesigu Ra Anumzamo'a ana vahera zamatrege'za mani'naze.

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 E'ina hazageno Kenani vahe'ene, Hiti vahe'ene, Amori vahe'ene, Perisi vahe'ene Hivi vahe'ene, Jebusi vahe'mokizmi amu'nompi Israeli vahera mani'naze.

So the people of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

6 Ana'ma nehu'za Israeli vahe'mo'za zamagri mofa'ne ara e'neri'za, ete zamagra mofa'nea zamatrazage'za zamagri mofavreramintera vea omeneri'za unemrazageno, havi anumzazmirera monora ome hunte'naze.

Their daughters they took to be their wives, and their own daughters they gave to their sons, and they served their gods.

7 Israeli vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofo avufina kefo zamavu'zmava nehu'za, Ra Anumzamofona zamagekani nente'za, Bali havi anumzante'ene Asera havi anumzamofo amema'are monora hunte'naze.

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 E'ina hazageno Ra Anumzamo'a Israeli vahe'tminkura tusi arimpa ahezamanteno Mesopotemia Kini ne' Kusan-risataimi azampi zamavarentegeno ha' eme huzamanteno zamazeri haviza nehuno, zamavareno kina ome huzmantege'za 8'a zagegafufi Kusan-risataimi kazokzo eri'za vahe umani'naze.

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 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofontega zamazama hinogura krafa hazageno, Ra Anumzamo'a zamazama hu' nera, Kalepi negana Kenazi ne'mofo, Otnielina azeri oti'ne.

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 Ra Anumzamofo Avamumo'a agri'ene emani'negeno, Israeli vahe'mokizmi keaga refko hu kva vahera mani'ne. Hagi Otnieli'ma Mesopotemia vahe'ene ha' ome nehigeno, Ra Anumzamo'a kini ne' Kusan-risataimina azampi avrentegeno aheno hara azeri agatere'ne.

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 Ana higeno 40'a kafufina ha'huzana omanege'za, fru hu'za Israeli vahe'mo'za mani'nazageno, Kenazi ne'mofo Otnieli'a fri'ne.

The land had peace for forty years. Then Othniel son of Kenaz died.

12 Ete mago'ene Israeli vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofo avufina kefo avu'avara hazageno, Ra Anumzamo'a Moapu kini ne' Eklonina hankavea amigeno Israeli vahera hara eme huzmagatereno kegava huzmante'ne. Na'ankure zamagra Ra Anumzamofo avufina kefo zamavu'zamava hu'naze.

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 Hagi Ekloni'a Amoni vahe'ene Ameleki vahe'enena kehige'za azageno Israeli vahera hara ome huzamante'za tofegna zafamoke hu'nea Jeriko rankuma zamahe'za hanare'naze.

Eglon joined with the Ammonites and the Amalekites and they went and defeated Israel, and they took possession of the City of Palms.

14 Hagi ana hazageno Israeli vahe'mo'za 18ni'a kafuzagefi Moapu kini ne' Ekloni kazokzo eri'za vahera mani'naze.

The people of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab for eighteen years.

15 Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama Ra Anumzamofontegama zamaza hinogu'ma krafagema hazageno'a, ha' vahe zamazampinti'ma zamazama hu' nera Benzameni nagapinti Gera nemofo hoga azane ne' Ehuti azeri oti'ne. Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za kafure kafure'ma kini ne'ma takesi zagoma nemizaza huno Moapu kini ne' Ekloni ome ami'nogu ana zantamina Ehutina nemi'za huntazageno erino vu'ne.

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 Ana higeno Ehuti'a tarega kaziga asane bainati kazina zaza'amo'a 50'a sentemita hu'nea tro huno tamaga kaziga amote anakiteno za'za ke'na'a antanino refite'ne.

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 Hagi Ekloni'a ra avufgane ne' mani'neankino, Ehuti'a ana takesi zagone maka zantamina erino Eglonina ome ami'ne.

He gave the tribute payment to King Eglon of Moab. (Now Eglon was a very fat man.)

18 Hagi ana takesi zantamima amiteno'a, ana zantamima azama hu'za eri'za vu'naza vahera eme huzamantege'za vu'naze.

After Ehud had presented the tribute payment, he left with those who had carried it in.

19 Hianagi Ehuti'a Gilgali tavaonte'ma havi anumzama tro'ma hunte'nazareti ete rukrehe huno Ekloninte eno amanage hu'ne, Ekloniga oku'a nanekeka'a erigante'na oe, higeno Ekloni'a eri'za vahe'agura huno, amafintira maka atiramiho, hige'za maka eri'za vahe'amo'za atirami vagare'naze.

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 Hagi Eglonima zasi'ma e'neria noma'afi agrake'ma manigeno'a, Ehuti'a amanage hu'ne, Anumzamofontegati oku nanekeka'a eri'na e'noe. Anage higeno tra'aretira oti'ne.

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 Hagi Ehuti'a tarega kazigama asane bainati kazima tamaga kaziga amote'ma anakinte'nea kazina avazu huno, Ekloni rimpa reragufe'ne.

Ehud reached with his left hand and took the sword from his right thigh, and he stabbed it into the king's body.

22 Ana bainati kazimofo nena'amo'ene asana'amo'enena Eglonina rimpafi ufresupanegeno afovamo'a herafiramino bainati kazina refite'ne.

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 Ehuti'a ana kazina eriokasi Ekloni avufgafi me'negeno netreno, agu'ati kafana erinegino, marerino nomofo agofetu'ma zasi'ma e'nerizareti takaureno fre'ne.

Then Ehud went out on the porch and closed the doors of the upper room behind him and locked them.

24 Ehuti'ma vutegeno'a, Ekloni eri'za vahe'mo'za eme kazana anaga kaziga nomofo kafana erigi'negeno, zamagesama antahi'zana agu'afinka rifa nereno mani'ne hu'za hu'naze.

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 Anage hu'za nentahiza kafante avega ante'naze. Hianagi kafana ame huno onagige'za kafante kinofira eri'za ana kafana anagi'za kazana, kvazmimo'a frino mopafi mase'nege'za ke'naze.

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 Hagi kini ne' eri'za vahe'mo'zama kafante avega ante'za mani'nazageno, Ehuti'a freno havere taga hu'za trohunte'naza havi anumzamofo amema'a me'nea kumara agatereno Seira vu'ne.

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 Hagi ana'ma huteno'a Israeli vahe'mofo mopafima ufreno Efraemi agonafima nevuno'a, ufe rege'za Israeli vahe'mo'za nentahi'za eme atru hazageno, ha' hunaku zamavareno ugota huno agra urami'ne.

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 Anama uneramino'a amanage huno hu'ne, navaririta viho, na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a ha' vahetamia Moapu vahera tamagri tamazampi avrente'neankita zamahegahaze. Anage hige'za Israel vahe'mo'za Ehutina avariri'za Jodani tima takama nehazare Moapu vahe'enena hara ome hu'za magore hu'za ozamatre zamahehana hu'naze.

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 Ana hapina Moapu hankavenentake ha' vahe'tmina Israeli vahe'mo'za 10tauseni'a vahe zamahehna nehu'za zamatrage'za ofre'naze.

At that time they killed about ten thousand men of Moab, and all were strong and capable men. Not one escaped.

30 E'ina hu'za Israeli vahe'mo'za Moapu vahera, zamahe vagarazageno 80'a kafufina hahu'zana omanege'za, Israeli vahe'mo'za knare hu'za mani'naze.

So that day Moab was subdued by the strength of Israel, and the land had rest for eighty years.

31 Ehuti amefira Anati nemofo Samgari efore huno bulimakao afu reneharia ronku hu'nea azotareti 600'a Filistia vahera zamahe hana huno Israeli vahera zamagu'vazi'ne.

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.
