King James Version with Apocrypha
1Abimelech, wen natul Gideon, el som nu Shechem, yen sou lun nina kial ah muta we, ac fahk nu selos
1And Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem unto his mother’s brethren, and communed with them, and with all the family of the house of his mother’s father, saying,
2elos in siyuk sin mwet Shechem, “Pia kac ma wo suwos: wen itngoul kewa natul Gideon in mwet kol lowos, ku siena selos in leum fowos? Esam lah Abimelech el sou na pwaye lowos.”
2Speak, I pray you, in the ears of all the men of Shechem, Whether is better for you, either that all the sons of Jerubbaal, which are threescore and ten persons, reign over you, or that one reign over you? remember also that I am your bone and your flesh.
3Sou lun nina kial Abimelech elos aolul in sramsramkin ma inge yurin mwet Shechem, na mwet Shechem elos wotela mu elos ac eisal Abimelech tuh elan mwet kol lalos, mweyen el sou na pwaye lalos.
3And his mother’s brethren spake of him in the ears of all the men of Shechem all these words: and their hearts inclined to follow Abimelech; for they said, He is our brother.
4Elos sang ipin silver itngoul liki tempul lal Baal‐lun‐Wuleang nu sel Abimelech, na el sang moli kutu mwet lusrongten in acn we tuh elos in welul.
4And they gave him threescore and ten pieces of silver out of the house of Baal-berith, wherewith Abimelech hired vain and light persons, which followed him.
5Ac el som nu in acn sin papa tumal ah in acn Ophrah, ac uniya tamulel itngoul wial fin sie eot lulap. Tusruktu Jotham, su srik emeet natul Gideon, el mukena tia anwuki, ke sripen el wikla.
5And he went unto his father’s house at Ophrah, and slew his brethren the sons of Jerubbaal, being threescore and ten persons, upon one stone: notwithstanding yet Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left; for he hid himself.
6Na mwet nukewa in Shechem ac Bethmillo elos toeni ac som nu sisken sak oak mutal in acn Shechem, ac oru tuh Abimelech elan tokosra lalos.
6And all the men of Shechem gathered together, and all the house of Millo, and went, and made Abimelech king, by the plain of the pillar that was in Shechem.
7Ac ke Jotham el lohng ma inge el som fanyak nu fin mangon Eol Gerizim ac wowoyak ac fahk nu selos, “Porongeyu, kowos mwet in Shechem, ac sahp God El ac fah porongekowos!
7¶ And when they told it to Jotham, he went and stood in the top of mount Gerizim, and lifted up his voice, and cried, and said unto them, Hearken unto me, ye men of Shechem, that God may hearken unto you.
8Sie pacl ah, sak nukewa som ac suk soko sak in tuh tokosra lalos. Elos fahk nu sin sak olive, ‘Kom fah tokosra lasr.’
8The trees went forth on a time to anoint a king over them; and they said unto the olive tree, Reign thou over us.
9Sak olive el topuk ac fahk, ‘Nga fin leum fowos, na enenu ngan tila orek oil, su mwe akfulatye god uh ac mwet uh.’
9But the olive tree said unto them, Should I leave my fatness, wherewith by me they honour God and man, and go to be promoted over the trees?
10Na sak inge elos sifil som ac fahk nu sin sak fig, ‘Fahsru tuh kom in tokosra lasr.’
10And the trees said to the fig tree, Come thou, and reign over us.
11Ac sak fig el topuk ac fahk, ‘Nga fin leum fowos, na enenu ngan tia sifil isus fahko emwem ac wo.’
11But the fig tree said unto them, Should I forsake my sweetness, and my good fruit, and go to be promoted over the trees?
12Na sak inge elos sifil som ac fahk nu sin oa in grape soko, ‘Fahsru tokosrala lasr.’
12Then said the trees unto the vine, Come thou, and reign over us.
13Na oa soko ah topuk ac fahk, ‘Nga fin leum fowos, na enenu ngan tila orek wain, su mwe akpwarye god uh ac mwet uh.’
13And the vine said unto them, Should I leave my wine, which cheereth God and man, and go to be promoted over the trees?
14Na sak inge sifil som ac fahk nu sin kokul, ‘Fahsru tokosrala lasr.’
14Then said all the trees unto the bramble, Come thou, and reign over us.
15Na kokul el topuk ac fahk, ‘Fin pwaye kowos lungse tuh nga in tokosra lowos, fahsru ac muta ye lulik. Kowos fin tia, na e ac fah sikyak ke ma fakfuk keik uh ac esukak sak cedar nukewa in acn Lebanon.’”
15And the bramble said unto the trees, If in truth ye anoint me king over you, then come and put your trust in my shadow: and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon.
16Na Jotham el sifilpa fahk, “Inge, ke kowos sulella Abimelech tuh elan tokosra lowos, ya kowos oru ke nunak na pwaye lowos? Ya kowos akfulatye orekma wo ma Gideon el oru nu suwos, ac oru wo nu sin sou lal?
16Now therefore, if ye have done truly and sincerely, in that ye have made Abimelech king, and if ye have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house, and have done unto him according to the deserving of his hands;
17Esam lah papa tumuk el tuh mweun keiwos. El pilesrala moul lal sifacna in molikowosla liki poun mwet Midian.
17(For my father fought for you, and adventured his life far, and delivered you out of the hand of Midian:
18Na misenge kowos forla lain sou lun papa tumuk. Kowos uniya wen itngoul natul fin eot sefanna. Na ke na sripen Abimelech el ac ma wiowos, mweyen el wen natul Gideon ac mutan kulansap se kial, na kowos oral tuh elan tokosra lun acn Shechem.
18And ye are risen up against my father’s house this day, and have slain his sons, threescore and ten persons, upon one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his maidservant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your brother;)
19Inge, fin ma kowos oru misenge nu sel Gideon ac sou lal an kowos oru ke inse pwaye ac wo, na lela kowos in engan kacl Abimelech, ac lela tuh elan engan pac keiwos.
19If ye then have dealt truly and sincerely with Jerubbaal and with his house this day, then rejoice ye in Abimelech, and let him also rejoice in you:
20A fin tia pwaye, lela e in sikyak kacl Abimelech ac esukak mwet Shechem ac mwet Bethmillo. Oayapa lela e in sikyak yurin mwet Shechem ac mwet Bethmillo ac esukulak Abimelech.”
20But if not, let fire come out from Abimelech, and devour the men of Shechem, and the house of Millo; and let fire come out from the men of Shechem, and from the house of Millo, and devour Abimelech.
21Na Jotham el kaingla nu Beer ac muta we, mweyen el sangeng sel Abimelech, tamulel lal ah.
21And Jotham ran away, and fled, and went to Beer, and dwelt there, for fear of Abimelech his brother.
22Abimelech el kol acn Israel ke yac tolu.
22¶ When Abimelech had reigned three years over Israel,
23Na God El oru tuh mwet Shechem ac Abimelech in asrungai, na mwet Shechem elos tuyak lainul Abimelech.
23Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech:
24Ma inge sikyak in akfalye ma koluk ma Abimelech ac mwet Shechem elos tuh oru nu sin wen itngoul natul Gideon ma elos uniya ah.
24That the cruelty done to the threescore and ten sons of Jerubbaal might come, and their blood be laid upon Abimelech their brother, which slew them; and upon the men of Shechem, which aided him in the killing of his brethren.
25Mwet Shechem elos sap kutu mwet lalos in som wikla fin mangon eol uh tuh elos in sruokilya Abimelech, ac mwet inge elos pisre ma lun mwet nukewa su forfor in acn sac. Pweng ke ma inge sonol pac Abimelech.
25And the men of Shechem set liers in wait for him in the top of the mountains, and they robbed all that came along that way by them: and it was told Abimelech.
26Inge, Gaal wen natul Ebed, ac mwet lel elos tuku nu Shechem, ac mwet Shechem elos filiya lulalfongi lalos facl.
26And Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brethren, and went over to Shechem: and the men of Shechem put their confidence in him.
27Elos nukewa illa nu in ima uh ac eisani grape, elos orala nu ke wain, ac orek engan. Na elos utyak nu in tempul lun god lalos, ac mongo ac nimnim we ac aksruksrukel Abimelech.
27And they went out into the fields, and gathered their vineyards, and trode the grapes , and made merry, and went into the house of their god, and did eat and drink, and cursed Abimelech.
28Ac Gaal el fahk, “Ku kut mwet fuka in acn Shechem inge? Efu ku kut in orekma nu sel Abimelech? Ku su win el uh? Ya tia ma natul Gideon? Zebul el orekma nu sel, tusruktu efu ku kut in kulansupwal? Kowos in orekma na nu sel Hamor, mwet matu lowos su el pa sifen ota lowos uh!
28And Gaal the son of Ebed said, Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? is not he the son of Jerubbaal? and Zebul his officer? serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem: for why should we serve him?
29Nga ke in nga pa kol mwet inge! Nga lukun lusulla Abimelech! Nga lukun sap elan akola mwet mweun lal ac ilme kut in mweun.”
29And would to God this people were under my hand! then would I remove Abimelech. And he said to Abimelech, Increase thine army, and come out.
30Ke Zebul, mwet kol lun siti sac, el lohng kas lal Gaal inge, el arulana kasrkusrak kac.
30¶ And when Zebul the ruler of the city heard the words of Gaal the son of Ebed, his anger was kindled.
31El supwala mwet utuk kas nu yorol Abimelech nu in Arumah ac fahk, “Gaal, wen natul Ebed, ac tamulel lal elos tuku nu Shechem ac oru eltal in tia lela kom in utyak nu in siti uh.
31And he sent messengers unto Abimelech privily, saying, Behold, Gaal the son of Ebed and his brethren be come to Shechem; and, behold, they fortify the city against thee.
32Inge kom ac mwet lom an tuku ke fong ac wikwik in imae soano.
32Now therefore up by night, thou and the people that is with thee, and lie in wait in the field:
33Ke lututang, ke faht uh tufahna takak, kom tuyak ac lain siti uh. Ac Gaal ac mwet lal fin illa in mweun, kom fah oneltalla nufon!”
33And it shall be, that in the morning, as soon as the sun is up, thou shalt rise early, and set upon the city: and, behold, when he and the people that is with him come out against thee, then mayest thou do to them as thou shalt find occasion.
34Na Abimelech ac mwet lal nukewa elos tuku ac wikwik sisken acn Shechem in fong ah — elos kitakatelik nu ke u akosr.
34¶ And Abimelech rose up, and all the people that were with him, by night, and they laid wait against Shechem in four companies.
35Na ke Abimelech ac mwet lal elos liye ke Gaal el illa tu ke nien utyak nu in siti uh, Abimelech ac mwet lal elos tuyak liki acn elos wikwik we uh.
35And Gaal the son of Ebed went out, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city: and Abimelech rose up, and the people that were with him, from lying in wait.
36Ke Gaal el liye mwet inge, el fahk nu sel Zebul, “Ngetla liye! Mwet pa tufoki fineol an me!” Zebul el fahk, “Mo, tia mwet. Lullul in eol uh pa kowos liye an.”
36And when Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, Behold, there come people down from the top of the mountains. And Zebul said unto him, Thou seest the shadow of the mountains as if they were men.
37Na Gaal el sifilpa fahk, “Liye, mwet pa tuku fineol an me ingan, ac sie u ah tuku ke innek soko sisken sak oak ma mwet susfa muta we ah!”
37And Gaal spake again and said, See there come people down by the middle of the land, and another company come along by the plain of Meonenim.
38Na Zebul el fahk nu sel, “Pia kusen tungak lom ah inge? Kom pa tuh fahk mu, ‘Su win Abimelech uh ku kut in orekma nu sel?’ Pa ingan mwet ma kom tuh aksruksruki ah. Fahla mweunelos.”
38Then said Zebul unto him, Where is now thy mouth, wherewith thou saidst, Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him? is not this the people that thou hast despised? go out, I pray now, and fight with them.
39Na Gaal el us mwet Shechem ac som mweunel Abimelech.
39And Gaal went out before the men of Shechem, and fought with Abimelech.
40Abimelech el mutawauk ukwal Gaal, ac el kaing. Pukanten mwet kinet ke inkanek ah, som na nwe sun mutunpot in siti ah.
40And Abimelech chased him, and he fled before him, and many were overthrown and wounded, even unto the entering of the gate.
41Abimelech el muta in acn Arumah, ac Zebul el lusulla Gaal ac tamulel lal ah liki acn Shechem, tuh elos in tia muta we.
41And Abimelech dwelt at Arumah: and Zebul thrust out Gaal and his brethren, that they should not dwell in Shechem.
42In len tok ah Abimelech el lohngak lah mwet Shechem inge elos pwapa in som nu in ima ah.
42And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people went out into the field; and they told Abimelech.
43Na el eis mwet lal ac kitalik nu ke u tolu, na elos wikwik in imae soano mwet ah. Ke Abimelech el liye ke mwet inge ilme liki siti uh, el tuyak liki nien wikwik uh ac onelosla.
43And he took the people, and divided them into three companies, and laid wait in the field, and looked, and, behold, the people were come forth out of the city; and he rose up against them, and smote them.
44Ke Abimelech ac u se lal ah yuyak in taran mutunpot in siti uh, u luo ngia elos mweuni mwet su muta in ima ah, ac onelosla nufon.
44And Abimelech, and the company that was with him, rushed forward, and stood in the entering of the gate of the city: and the two other companies ran upon all the people that were in the fields, and slew them.
45Mweun uh orek ke len nufon sac. Abimelech el sruokya siti sac ac onela mwet we. El kunausya siti sac ac afinya fin fohk uh ke sohl.
45And Abimelech fought against the city all that day; and he took the city, and slew the people that was therein, and beat down the city, and sowed it with salt.
46Ke mwet kol lun acn Shechem su muta ke tower lun mwet mweun ah elos lohng ke ma inge, elos suk nien wikla ku lalos ke tempul lal Baal‐lun‐Wuleang.
46¶ And when all the men of the tower of Shechem heard that , they entered into an hold of the house of the god Berith.
47Ke Abimelech el lohng lah mwet inge elos wikwik in acn sac,
47And it was told Abimelech, that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.
48na el ac mwet lal elos fanyak nu Fineol Zalmon. El eis tula soko ac pakela lesak se ac filiya finpisal, ac fahk nu sin mwet lal elos in oru oana.
48And Abimelech gat him up to mount Zalmon, he and all the people that were with him; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand, and cut down a bough from the trees, and took it, and laid it on his shoulder, and said unto the people that were with him, What ye have seen me do, make haste, and do as I have done .
49Ouinge mwet nukewa elos pakela kais sie lesak lalos ac fahsr tokol Abimelech. Elos yolsani lesak uh ke acn in wikla ku sac, ac esukak. Mwet uh mutana loac, ac elos nukewa misa — sahp oasr sie tausin mukul ac mutan we.
49And all the people likewise cut down every man his bough, and followed Abimelech, and put them to the hold, and set the hold on fire upon them; so that all the men of the tower of Shechem died also, about a thousand men and women.
50Na Abimelech el som nu Thebez, kuhlusya acn we ac sruokya.
50¶ Then went Abimelech to Thebez, and encamped against Thebez, and took it.
51Oasr sie tower na ku in acn se inge, ac mwet nukewa in acn sac, mukul ac mutan ac mwet kol lalos, elos kaing nu we. Elos sifacna lakelosi ac fanyak nu fin mangon tower sac.
51But there was a strong tower within the city, and thither fled all the men and women, and all they of the city, and shut it to them, and gat them up to the top of the tower.
52Ke Abimelech el tuku nu ke tower sac tuh elan sruokya, el kalukyang nwe ke srungul uh tuh elan esukak.
52And Abimelech came unto the tower, and fought against it, and went hard unto the door of the tower to burn it with fire.
53Na sie mutan el sisya eot in ilil na lulap se nu fin sifal twe foklalik ahlunsifal.
53And a certain woman cast a piece of a millstone upon Abimelech’s head, and all to brake his skull.
54Na Abimelech el sulaklak pangonma mwet fusr se su us mwe mweun natul ah, ac fahk, “Faisak cutlass nutum an ac uniyuwi, tuh nga tia lungse mwet in fahk mu mutan se pa uniyuwi uh.” Na mukul fusr sac faksilya ke cutlass natul ah, na el misa.
54Then he called hastily unto the young man his armourbearer, and said unto him, Draw thy sword, and slay me, that men say not of me, A woman slew him. And his young man thrust him through, and he died.
55Ke mwet Israel elos liye lah Abimelech el misa, elos folokelik nu acn selos.
55And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they departed every man unto his place.
56Ouinge God El folokin nu sel Abimelech ma koluk se el tuh oru nu sin papa tumal ke el tuh uniya tamulel itngoul wial ah.
56¶ Thus God rendered the wickedness of Abimelech, which he did unto his father, in slaying his seventy brethren:
57Ac God El oayapa folokin ma koluk lun mwet Shechem nu faclos sifacna, fal nu ke ma Jotham, wen natul Gideon, el fahk ke el selngawelos ah.
57And all the evil of the men of Shechem did God render upon their heads: and upon them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal.
