¹A po Abimelechovi povstal zachrániť Izraela Tóla, syn Púov, syna Dódovho, muž z pokolenia Izachárovho, a ten býval v Šamíre, na vrchu Efraimovom.

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

²Súdil Izraela dvadsaťtri rokov a keď zomrel, pochovaný bol v Šamíre.

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

³Po ňom povstal Jair Gileádsky a súdil Izraela dvadsaťdva rokov.

³And after him arose Jair, the Gileadite; and he judged Israel twenty and two years.

⁴A mal tridsiatich synov, ktorí jazdili na tridsiatich mladých osloch a mali tridsať miest. Volajú ich dedinami Jairovými až do tohoto dňa, ktoré sú v zemi Gileáde.

⁴And he had thirty sons that rode on thirty ass colts, and they had thirty cities, which are called Havvoth-jair unto this day, which are in the land of Gilead.

⁵A keď zomrel Jair, pochovaný bol v Kamone.

⁵And Jair died, and was buried in Kamon.

⁶A synovia Izraelovi zase robili to, čo je zlé v očiach Hospodinových, a slúžili Bálom a Astartám a syrským bohom, aramejským, a sidonským bohom, moábskym bohom, bohom synov Ammonových a bohom Filištínov a opustili Hospodina a neslúžili mu.

⁶And the children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and served the Baalim, and the Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Sidon, 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.

⁷Preto sa zanietil hnev Hospodinov na Izraela, a predal ich do ruky Filištínov a do ruky synov Ammonových,

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

⁸ktorí drtili a deptali synov Izraelových toho roku a osemnásť rokov všetkých synov Izraelových, ktorí boli za Jordánom v zemi Amoreja, ktorá je v Gileáde.

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

⁹Lebo synovia Ammonovi prešli cez Jordán, aby bojovali aj proti Júdovi, proti Benjaminovi a proti domu Efraimovmu. A Izraelovi bolo veľmi úzko.

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

¹⁰Vtedy kričali synovia Izraelovi k Hospodinovi a vraveli: Zhrešili sme proti tebe, a to tým, že sme opustili svojho Boha a slúžili sme Bálom.

¹⁰And the children of Israel cried unto Jehovah, saying, We have sinned against thee, even because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Baalim.

¹¹A Hospodin riekol synom Izraelovým: Či nezachránil som vás od Egypťanov a od Amorejov, od synov Ammonových a od Filištínov?

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

¹²A utiskovali vás Sidonci, Amalech a Maon, a keď ste kričali ku mne, zachránil som vás z ich ruky.

¹²The Sidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, did oppress you; and ye cried unto me, and I saved you out of their hand.

¹³Ale vy ste ma opustili a slúžili ste iným bohom, preto vás už viacej nezachránim.

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

¹⁴Iďte a kričte k bohom, ktorých ste si vyvolili: nech vám tí pomôžu v čas vašej úzkosti.

¹⁴Go and cry unto the gods which ye have chosen; let them save you in the time of your distress.

¹⁵A synovia Izraelovi povedali Hospodinovi: Zhrešili sme. Ty nám učiň, čokoľvek sa ti ľúbi, len nás, prosíme, vytrhni tohoto dňa.

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

¹⁶A odstránili cudzích bohov zo svojho stredu a slúžili Hospodinovi. A nemohla to zvládať jeho duša, aby sa nezľutovala v trápení Izraelovom.

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

¹⁷A synovia Ammonovi sa svolali a položili sa táborom v Gileáde. A shromaždili sa aj synovia Izraelovi a položili sa táborom v Micpe.

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

¹⁸A ľud povedal, kniežatá kraja Gileáda, druh druhovi: Kto je ten muž, ktorý započne bojovať proti synom Ammonovým? Bude hlavou všetkým obyvateľom Gileáda.

¹⁸And the people, the 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.
