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

¹[Ny tantaran'i Tola sy Jaïra] 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.

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

²Ary nitsara ny Isiraely telo amby roa-polo taona izy, dia maty ka nalevina tao Samira.

³And after him rose up Jair, a Gileadite; and he judged Israel twenty-two years.

³Ary nitsangana nandimby azy Jaïra Gileadita ka nitsara ny Isiraely roa amby roa-polo taona.

⁴And he had thirty sons who rode on thirty ass colts; and they had thirty cities, which are called the villages of Jair to this day, which are in the land of Gilead.

⁴Ary 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.[Havota-jaïra = Tanàna madinika an'i Jaïra]

⁵And Jair died, and was buried in Kamon.

⁵Dia maty Jaïra ka nalevina tany Kamona.

⁶And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of Jehovah, and served the Baals, and the Ashtoreths, 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 they forsook Jehovah, and served him not.

⁶[Ny nihemoran'ny Isiraely indray, sy ny namalian'Andriamanitra azy] 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.

⁷And the anger of Jehovah was hot against Israel, and he sold him into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the children of Ammon.

⁷Dia 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.

⁸And they oppressed and crushed the children of Israel in that year; eighteen years [they oppressed] all the children of Israel that were beyond the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.

⁸Ary 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.

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

⁹Ary 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.

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

¹⁰Dia nitaraina tamin'i Jehovah ny Zanak'Isiraely ka nanao hoe: Efa nanota taminao izahay, satria efa nahafoy an'Andriamanitray ka nanompo ireo Bala.

¹¹And Jehovah said to the children of Israel, Did I not [save you] from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines?

¹¹Ary 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?

¹²The Zidonians also, and Amalek and Maon oppressed you, and ye cried to me, and I saved you out of their hand.

¹²Ary nampahory anareo koa ny Sidoniana sy ny Amalekita ary ny Maonita, ka nitaraina tamiko ianareo, dia novonjeko tamin'ny tànany.

¹³But ye have forsaken me, and served other gods; therefore I will save you no more.

¹³Nefa ianareo nahafoy Ahy ka nanompo andriamani-kafa; koa izany kosa no tsy hamonjeko anareo intsony.

¹⁴Go and cry to the gods that ye have chosen: let them save you in the time of your trouble.

¹⁴Mandehana, ka mitaraina amin'ireo andriamanitra efa nofidinareo; aoka ireo no hamonjy anareo amin'ny andron'ny fahantranareo.

¹⁵And the children of Israel said to Jehovah, We have sinned. Do thou unto us according to all that is good in thy sight; only deliver us, we pray thee, this day.

¹⁵Ary hoy ny Zanak'Isiraely tamin'i Jehovah: Efa nanota izahay; ataovy aminay izay rehetra sitrakao; kanefa mba vonjeo ihany izahay anio.

¹⁶And they put away the strange gods from among them, and served Jehovah; and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.

¹⁶Dia nanary ireo andriamani-kafa tao aminy izy ka nanompo an'i Jehovah; dia tsy nahatsindry ny fanahiny intsony Jehovah noho ny fahantran'ny Isiraely.

¹⁷And the children of Ammon were called together and encamped in Gilead; and the children of Israel gathered together and encamped in Mizpeh.

¹⁷[Ny tantaran'i Jefta, sy ny nandreseny ny Amonita] Dia nivory ny taranak'i Amona ka nitoby tany Gileada. Ary nivory kosa ny Zanak'Isiraely ka nitoby tany Mizpa.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.

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

¹⁸Dia 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.
