¹Now these are the nations which Yahweh left, to prove Israel by them, even as many as had not known all the wars of Canaan;

¹Ja need on rahvad, keda Issand alles jättis, et nende läbi katsuda Iisraeli, kõiki neid, kes ei tundnud ühtegi Kaanani sõda,

²only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as before knew nothing of it:

²ainult selleks, et Iisraeli laste sugupõlved teaksid, et tema õpetab neid sõdima, nimelt neid, kes seda varem ei osanud:

³the five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hivites who lived on Mount Lebanon, from Mount Baal Hermon to the entrance of Hamath.

³viis vilistite vürsti ja kõik kaananlased, siidonlased ja hiivlased, kes elasid Liibanoni mäestikus Baal-Hermoni mäest kuni Hamati teelahkmeni.

⁴They were left to test Israel by them, to know whether they would listen to the commandments of Yahweh, which he commanded their fathers by Moses.

⁴Need jäid, et nende läbi katsuda Iisraeli, et teada saada, kas nad tahavad kuulda Issanda käske, mis ta Moosese läbi oli andnud nende vanemaile.

⁵The children of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites:

⁵Iisraeli lapsed elasid siis kaananlaste, hettide, emorlaste, perislaste, hiivlaste ja jebuuslaste keskel,

⁶and they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their own daughters to their sons and served their gods.

⁶võtsid nende tütreid enestele naisteks ja andsid oma tütreid nende poegadele ning teenisid nende jumalaid.

⁷The children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and forgot Yahweh their God, and served the Baals and the Asheroth.

⁷Nõnda tegid Iisraeli lapsed kurja Issanda silmis ja unustasid Issanda, oma Jumala ning teenisid baale ja aðeraid.

⁸Therefore the anger of Yahweh was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Cushan Rishathaim king of Mesopotamia: and the children of Israel served Cushan Rishathaim eight years.

⁸Siis Issanda viha süttis põlema Iisraeli vastu ja ta müüs nad Mesopotaamia kuninga Kuusan-Risataimi kätte; ja Iisraeli lapsed orjasid Kuusan-Risataimi kaheksa aastat.

⁹When the children of Israel cried to Yahweh, Yahweh raised up a savior to the children of Israel, who saved them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother.

⁹Aga Iisraeli lapsed kisendasid Issanda poole ja Issand tõstis Iisraeli lastele päästja, kes nad päästis - Otnieli, Kaalebi noorema venna Kenase poja.

¹⁰The Spirit of Yahweh came on him, and he judged Israel; and he went out to war, and Yahweh delivered Cushan Rishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand: and his hand prevailed against Cushan Rishathaim.

¹⁰Issanda Vaim tuli tema peale ja ta mõistis Iisraelile kohut; ta läks sõtta ja Issand andis tema kätte Mesopotaamia kuninga Kuusan-Risataimi ja ta käsi sai võimuse Kuusan-Risataimi üle.

¹¹The land had rest forty years. Othniel the son of Kenaz died.

¹¹Ja maal oli rahu nelikümmend aastat; siis suri Otniel, Kenase poeg.

¹²The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh: and Yahweh strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh.

¹²Aga Iisraeli lapsed tegid jälle, mis kuri oli Issanda silmis, ja Issand julgustas Moabi kuningat Eglonit Iisraeli vastu, sellepärast et nad olid teinud kurja Issanda silmis.

¹³He gathered to him the children of Ammon and Amalek; and he went and struck Israel, and they possessed the city of palm trees.

¹³Ja tema kogus enese juurde ammonlased ja amalekid ja läks ning lõi Iisraeli, ja nad vallutasid Palmidelinna.

¹⁴The children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.

¹⁴Ja Iisraeli lapsed orjasid Moabi kuningat Eglonit kaheksateist aastat.

¹⁵But when the children of Israel cried to Yahweh, Yahweh raised them up a savior, Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a man left-handed. The children of Israel sent tribute by him to Eglon the king of Moab.

¹⁵Siis Iisraeli lapsed kisendasid Issanda poole ja Issand tõstis neile päästjaks Eehudi, Geera poja, benjaminlase, vasakukäelise mehe. Kui Iisraeli lapsed saatsid temaga anni Moabi kuningale Eglonile,

¹⁶Ehud made him a sword which had two edges, a cubit in length; and he wore it under his clothing on his right thigh.

¹⁶siis Eehud valmistas enesele kaheteralise mõõga, küünar pika, ja pani selle vööle riiete alla oma paremale puusale.

¹⁷He offered the tribute to Eglon king of Moab: now Eglon was a very fat man.

¹⁷Ja ta viis anni Eglonile, Moabi kuningale; ja Eglon oli väga paks mees.

¹⁸When he had made an end of offering the tribute, he sent away the people who bore the tribute.

¹⁸Kui and oli tervenisti üle antud, siis ta saatis ära inimesed, kes andi olid kandnud,

¹⁹But he himself turned back from the quarries that were by Gilgal, and said, “I have a secret errand to you, king.” The king said, “Keep silence!” All who stood by him went out from him.

¹⁹ja ta ise pöördus tagasi Gilgalis olevate jumalakujude juurest ning ütles: 'Kuningas, mul on sulle saladus rääkida.' Ja Eglon vastas: 'Tasa!' Siis läksid kõik, kes ta juures seisid, tema juurest ära.

²⁰Ehud came to him; and he was sitting by himself alone in the cool upper room. Ehud said, “I have a message from God to you.” He arose out of his seat.

²⁰Eehud tuli ta juurde, kui ta istus vilus ülakambris, mis tal omaette oli, ja Eehud ütles: 'Mul on sinu jaoks Jumala sõna!' Ta tõusis üles oma istmelt,

²¹Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his body:

²¹aga Eehud sirutas oma vasaku käe, võttis mõõga oma paremalt puusalt ja torkas temale kõhtu,

²²and the handle also went in after the blade; and the fat closed on the blade, for he didn’t draw the sword out of his body; and it came out behind.

²²nõnda et pidegi läks tera järel sisse ja rasv embas tera, sest ta ei tõmmanud mõõka tema kõhust välja; seejärel väljus ta peidikust.

²³Then Ehud went forth into the porch, and shut the doors of the upper room on him, and locked them.

²³Eehud läks eesruumi ja sulges ning riivistas enese järel ülakambri uksed.

²⁴Now when he was gone out, his servants came; and they saw, and behold, the doors of the upper room were locked; and they said, “Surely he is covering his feet in the upper room.”

²⁴Ja kui ta oli väljunud, siis tulid sisse kuninga sulased ja vaatasid, ja ennäe, ülakambri uksed olid suletud. Nad ütlesid: 'Küllap ta toimetab vilus kambris oma asju.'

²⁵They waited until they were ashamed; and behold, he didn’t open the doors of the upper room: therefore they took the key, and opened them, and behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth.

²⁵Ja nad ootasid, kuni neil hakkas häbi, aga vaata, keegi ei avanud ülakambri uksi. Siis tõid nad võtme ja avasid, ja vaata, nende isand lamas surnuna maas.

²⁶Ehud escaped while they waited, and passed beyond the quarries, and escaped to Seirah.

²⁶Eehud oli aga põgenenud, seni kui nad kõhklesid; ta oli möödunud jumalakujudest ja pääsenud Seirasse.

²⁷It happened, when he had come, that he blew a trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel went down with him from the hill country, and he before them.

²⁷Ja kui ta sinna jõudis, siis ta puhus sarve Efraimi mäestikus ja Iisraeli lapsed läksid koos temaga mäestikust alla, tema nende ees.

²⁸He said to them, “Follow me; for Yahweh has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand.” They followed him, and took the fords of the Jordan against the Moabites, and didn’t allow any man to pass over.

²⁸Ja ta ütles neile: 'Järgnege mulle, sest Issand annab teie vaenlased moabid teie kätte!' Ja nad läksid tema järel alla ning vallutasid Jordani koolmed, mis olid Moabi poole, ega lasknud üle mitte kedagi.

²⁹They struck of Moab at that time about ten thousand men, every lusty man, and every man of valor; and there escaped not a man.

²⁹Tol korral lõid nad moabe maha ligi kümme tuhat meest, kõik tublid ja tugevad mehed, ja ainsatki ei pääsenud.

³⁰So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. The land had rest eighty years.

³⁰Nõnda alistati Moab sel päeval Iisraeli käe alla ja maal oli rahu kaheksakümmend aastat.

³¹After him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who struck of the Philistines six hundred men with an oxgoad: and he also saved Israel.

³¹Ja tema järel tuli Samgar, Anati poeg, ja see lõi härjaastlaga vilistitest maha kuussada meest; temagi päästis Iisraeli.
