1 καὶ ἀνέστη μετὰ Αβιμελεχ τοῦ σῶσαι τὸν Ισραηλ Θωλα υἱὸς Φουα υἱὸς πατραδέλφου αὐτοῦ ἀνὴρ Ισσαχαρ καὶ αὐτὸς κατῴκει ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ ἐν ὄρει Εφραιμ 2 καὶ ἔκρινεν τὸν Ισραηλ εἴκοσι καὶ τρία ἔτη καὶ ἀπέθανεν καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ 3 καὶ ἀνέστη με{T'} αὐτὸν Ιαϊρ ὁ Γαλααδίτης καὶ ἔκρινεν τὸν Ισραηλ εἴκοσι καὶ δύο ἔτη 4 καὶ ἐγένοντο αὐτῷ τριάκοντα καὶ δύο υἱοὶ ἐπιβεβηκότες ἐπὶ τριάκοντα καὶ δύο πώλους καὶ τριάκοντα καὶ δύο πόλεις αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὰς Ἐπαύλεις Ιαϊρ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης αἵ εἰσιν ἐν τῇ γῇ Γαλααδ 5 καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ιαϊρ καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν Ραμμω | 1 The next champion of Israel after Abimelech was the son of his uncle Phua,[1] a man of Issachar named Thola. He lived at Samir in the hill-country of Ephraim, 2 and at Samir he died and was buried, after ruling Israel for twenty-three years. 3 He was followed by Jair, a man of Galaad, who ruled Israel for twenty-two years. 4 He had thirty sons, each of whom rode in state on an ass’s colt of his own, and ruled a township of his own; these townships in Galaad are still called Havoth Jair, Jair’s Villages. 5 And when Jair died, he was buried at a place called Camon. | 1 Post Abimelech surrexit dux in Israël Thola filius Phua patrui Abimelech, vir de Issachar, qui habitavit in Samir montis Ephraim: 2 et judicavit Israëlem viginti et tribus annis, mortuusque est, ac sepultus in Samir. 3 Huic successit Jair Galaadites, qui judicavit Israël per viginti et duos annos, 4 habens triginta filios sedentes super triginta pullos asinarum, et principes triginta civitatum, quæ ex nomine ejus sunt appellatæ Havoth Jair, id est, oppida Jair, usque in præsentem diem, in terra Galaad. 5 Mortuusque est Jair, ac sepultus in loco cui est vocabulum Camon. |
6 καὶ προσέθεντο οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ ποιῆσαι τὸ πονηρὸν ἔναντι κυρίου καὶ ἐλάτρευσαν ταῖς Βααλιμ καὶ ταῖς Ασταρωθ καὶ τοῖς θεοῖς Σιδῶνος καὶ τοῖς θεοῖς Μωαβ καὶ τοῖς θεοῖς υἱῶν Αμμων καὶ τοῖς θεοῖς τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἐγκατέλιπον τὸν κύριον καὶ οὐκ ἐδούλευσαν αὐτῷ 7 καὶ ἐθυμώθη ὀργῇ κύριος ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ καὶ ἀπέδοτο αὐτοὺς ἐν χειρὶ ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἐν χειρὶ υἱῶν Αμμων 8 καὶ ἐσάθρωσαν καὶ ἔθλασαν τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ ἐκείνῳ ὀκτωκαίδεκα ἔτη πάντας τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ Ιορδάνου ἐν τῇ γῇ τοῦ Αμορραίου ἐν τῇ Γαλααδίτιδι 9 καὶ διέβησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Αμμων τὸν Ιορδάνην ἐκπολεμῆσαι καὶ ἐν τῷ Ιουδα καὶ Βενιαμιν καὶ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Εφραιμ καὶ ἐθλίβησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ σφόδρα 10 καὶ ἐκέκραξαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ πρὸς κύριον λέγοντες ἡμάρτομέν σοι ὅτι ἐγκατελίπομεν τὸν θεὸν ἡμῶν καὶ ἐλατρεύσαμεν ταῖς Βααλιμ 11 καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ οὐχὶ οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι καὶ οἱ Αμορραῖοι καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Αμμων καὶ Μωαβ καὶ οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι 12 καὶ Σιδώνιοι καὶ Μαδιαμ καὶ Αμαληκ ἐξέθλιψαν ὑμᾶς καὶ ἐκεκράξατε πρός με καὶ ἔσωσα ὑμᾶς ἐκ χειρὸς αὐτῶν 13 καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐγκατελίπετέ με καὶ ἐλατρεύσατε θεοῖς ἑτέροις διὰ τοῦτο οὐ προσθήσω τοῦ σῶσαι ὑμᾶς 14 βαδίζετε καὶ βοᾶτε πρὸς τοὺς θεούς οὓς ἐξελέξασθε ἑαυτοῖς καὶ αὐτοὶ σωσάτωσαν ὑμᾶς ἐν καιρῷ θλίψεως ὑμῶν 15 καὶ εἶπαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ πρὸς κύριον ἡμάρτομεν ποίησον σὺ ἡμῖν κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἂν ἀρέσκῃ ἐνώπιόν σου πλήν κύριε ἐξελοῦ ἡμᾶς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ 16 καὶ μετέστησαν τοὺς θεοὺς τοὺς ἀλλοτρίους ἐκ μέσου αὐτῶν καὶ ἐλάτρευσαν τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ οὐκ εὐηρέστησεν ἐν τῷ λαῷ καὶ ὠλιγοψύχησεν ἐν τῷ κόπῳ Ισραηλ | 6 And now the Israelites matched their old sins with new, defying the Lord and worshipping idols of Baal and Astaroth, gods of Syria, Sidon, Moab, Ammon and Philistia, forsaking the Lord and no longer paying him reverence. 7 And the Lord, in his anger, left them at the mercy of Philistine and Ammonite, 8 who for eighteen years wore them down and grievously harassed them. Nor was it only the old land of the Amorrhites beyond Jordan, in Galaad, that suffered; 9 these Ammonites crossed the Jordan and laid waste Juda, Benjamin and Ephraim, so that Israel was in sore distress. 10 Thereupon they cried out to the Lord, and confessed that they had sinned against him, in worshipping the gods of the country-side; but the Lord would not listen to them. 11 So it was, he said, when Egyptian and Amorrhite, Ammonite and Philistine, 12 Sidonian, Amalecite and Chanaanite harassed you. You cried out to me, and I delivered you from the power of all these, 13 and still you forsook me, still you paid reverence to alien gods; I will no longer be your deliverer. 14 Go and ask help from the gods of your own choosing; it is they who ought to befriend you in your hour of need. 15 We have sinned, the men of Israel answered, punish us as thou wilt, only bring us deliverance now; 16 and with that they banished the idols of every alien god from their dominions, and went back to the service of the Lord; till at last he took pity on their distress. | 6 Filii autem Israël peccatis veteribus jungentes nova, fecerunt malum in conspectu Domini, et servierunt idolis, Baalim et Astaroth, et diis Syriæ ac Sidonis et Moab et filiorum Ammon et Philisthiim: dimiseruntque Dominum, et non coluerunt eum. 7 Contra quos Dominus iratus, tradidit eos in manus Philisthiim et filiorum Ammon. 8 Afflictique sunt, et vehementer oppressi per annos decem et octo, omnes qui habitabant trans Jordanem in terra Amorrhæi, qui est in Galaad: 9 in tantum ut filii Ammon, Jordane transmisso, vastarent Judam et Benjamin et Ephraim: afflictusque est Israël nimis. 10 Et clamantes ad Dominum, dixerunt: Peccavimus tibi, quia dereliquimus Dominum Deum nostrum, et servivimus Baalim. 11 Quibus locutus est Dominus: Numquid non Ægyptii et Amorrhæi, filiique Ammon et Philisthiim, 12 Sidonii quoque et Amalec et Chanaan oppresserunt vos, et clamastis ad me, et erui vos de manu eorum? 13 Et tamen reliquistis me, et coluistis deos alienos: idcirco non addam ut ultra vos liberem: 14 ite, et invocate deos quos elegistis: ipsi vos liberent in tempore angustiæ. 15 Dixeruntque filii Israël ad Dominum: Peccavimus, redde tu nobis quidquid tibi placet: tantum nunc libera nos. 16 Quæ dicentes, omnia de finibus suis alienorum deorum idola projecerunt, et servierunt Domino Deo: qui doluit super miseriis eorum. |
17 καὶ ἀνέβησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Αμμων καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν Γαλααδ καὶ ἐξῆλθον οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ καὶ παρενέβαλον ἐν τῇ Μασσηφα 18 καὶ εἶπον οἱ ἄρχοντες τοῦ λαοῦ Γαλααδ ἀνὴρ πρὸς τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ τίς ἀνήρ ὃς ἄρξεται πολεμῆσαι ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς Αμμων καὶ ἔσται εἰς κεφαλὴν πᾶσιν τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν Γαλααδ | 17 The Ammonites had raised their war-cry, and were encamped now in Galaad, with the forces Israel had mustered encamped opposite them at Maspha. 18 And the word went round among the chiefs of Galaad, Let but a champion come forward to lead us against the Ammonites, and all Galaad will make him its ruler. | 17 Itaque filii Ammon conclamantes in Galaad fixere tentoria, contra quos congregati filii Israël in Maspha castrametati sunt. 18 Dixeruntque principes Galaad singuli ad proximos suos: Qui primus ex nobis contra filios Ammon cœperit dimicare, erit dux populi Galaad. |
