¹Ja pärast Abimelekit tõusis Iisraeli päästma Toola, Doodo poja Puua poeg, issaskarlane, kes elas Saamiris Efraimi mäestikus.

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.

²Tema mõistis Iisraelile kohut kakskümmend kolm aastat; siis ta suri ja maeti Saamirisse.

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

³Ja pärast teda tõusis gileadlane Jair ja mõistis Iisraelile kohut kakskümmend kaks aastat.

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

⁴Temal oli kolmkümmend poega; need ratsutasid kolmekümne eesli seljas ja neil oli kolmkümmend linna, mida tänapäevani hüütakse 'Jairi telklaagreiks'; need on Gileadimaal.

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.

⁵Jair suri ja maeti Kamonisse.

⁵And Jair died, and was buried in Kamon.

⁶Ja Iisraeli lapsed tegid jälle kurja Issanda silmis ning teenisid baale ja astartesid, Süüria jumalaid, Siidoni jumalaid, Moabi jumalaid, ammonlaste jumalaid ja vilistite jumalaid, ja nad jätsid maha Issanda ega teeninud teda.

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.

⁷Siis Issanda viha süttis põlema Iisraeli vastu ja ta andis nad vilistite ja ammonlaste kätte.

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.

⁸Need vaevasid ja rõhusid Iisraeli lapsi sel aastal ja veel kaheksateist aastat, kõiki Iisraeli lapsi, kes olid teisel pool Jordanit Gileadis oleval emorlaste maal.

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.

⁹Ja ammonlased läksid üle Jordani sõdima ka Juuda, Benjamini ja Efraimi soo vastu; ja Iisraelil oli väga kitsas käes.

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.

¹⁰Siis Iisraeli lapsed kisendasid Issanda poole, öeldes: 'Me oleme sinu vastu pattu teinud, sest me oleme maha jätnud oma Jumala ja oleme teeninud baale!'

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.

¹¹Ja Issand ütles Iisraeli lastele: 'Eks ma ole teid päästnud egiptlaste, emorlaste, ammonlaste ja vilistite käest?

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?

¹²Siidonlased, Amalek ja Maon rõhusid teid. Siis te kisendasite minu poole ja ma päästsin teid nende käest.

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

¹³Aga te jätsite mind maha ja teenisite teisi jumalaid, sellepärast ma ei päästa teid enam!

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

¹⁴Minge ja kisendage nende jumalate poole, keda te olete valinud! Päästku nemad teid teie ahastuse ajal!'

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

¹⁵Siis Iisraeli lapsed ütlesid Issandale: 'Me oleme pattu teinud! Talita sina meiega, nagu see sinu silmis hea on, aga päästa meid praegu!'

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.

¹⁶Ja nad kõrvaldasid eneste keskelt võõrad jumalad ning teenisid Issandat; siis ei sallinud tema hing enam Iisraeli vaeva.

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

¹⁷Aga ammonlased kutsuti kokku ja nad lõid leeri üles Gileadi; ja Iisraeli lapsed kogunesid ning lõid leeri üles Mispasse.

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

¹⁸Siis ütlesid inimesed, Gileadi vürstid, üksteisele: 'Kes oleks see mees, kes hakkaks sõdima ammonlaste vastu? Saagu ta pealikuks kõigile Gileadi elanikele!'

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.
