1Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ki mui ia ʻApimeleki ʻa Tola ko e foha ʻo Pua, ko e foha ʻo Toto, ko e tangata ʻo ʻIsaka, ke ne fakamoʻui ʻa ʻIsileli; pea naʻe nofo ia ʻi Samili ʻi he moʻunga ʻo ʻIfalemi.
1And after Abimelech there arose to defend Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in mount Ephraim.
2Pea naʻa ne fakamaauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma tolu, pea pekia ia, pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi Samili.
2And he judged Israel twenty and three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir.
3¶ Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa Saili ko e tangata ʻo Kiliati, pea ne fakamaau ʻe ia ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe uofulu ma ua.
3¶ And after him arose Jair, a Gileadite, and judged Israel twenty and two years.
4Pea naʻe toko tolungofulu hono foha naʻa nau heka ʻi he ngaahi ʻasi mui ʻe tolungofulu, pea naʻe tolungofulu ʻenau kolo, ʻaia ʻoku ui ko e ngaahi kolo ʻo Saili, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he fonua ʻo Kiliati.

6¶ Pea naʻe toe fai kovi ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻonau tauhi ʻa Peali mo ʻAsitelote, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo Silia, pea mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo Saitoni, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo Moape, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, mo e ngaahi ʻotua ʻoe kau Filisitia, ʻonau liʻaki ʻa Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau tauhi ia.
6¶ And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD , and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, 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 forsook the LORD , and served not him.
7Pea naʻe tupu ai ke vela ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova ki ʻIsileli, pea ne fakatau kinautolu ki he nima ʻoe kau Filisitia, pea ki he nima ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.
7And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hands of the Philistines, and into the hands of the children of Ammon.
8Pea naʻe hongofulu taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe valu ʻi he kuonga ko ia mo ʻenau taʻomia ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: ʻae fānau kotoa pē ʻa ʻIsileli naʻe nofo ʻi he potu ki kō atu ʻi Sioatani ʻi he fonua ʻoe kau ʻAmoli, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Kiliati.
8And that year they vexed and oppressed the children of Israel: eighteen years, all the children of Israel that were on the other side Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead.
9Naʻe ʻalu foki ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni ʻo fokotuʻu atu ki he kauvai ʻe taha ʻo Sioatani ke tauʻi ʻa Siuta, pea mo Penisimani, pea mo e fale ʻo ʻIfalemi: ko ia naʻe mamahi lahi ai ʻa ʻIsileli.
9Moreover the children of Ammon passed over Jordan to fight also against Judah, and against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim; so that Israel was sore distressed.
10Pea naʻe tangi ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Sihova, ʻo pehē, “Kuo mau fai angahala kiate koe, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻemau liʻaki homau ʻOtua, mo ʻemau tauhi foki ʻa Peali.”
10¶ And the children of Israel cried unto the LORD , saying, We have sinned against thee, both because we have forsaken our God, and also served Baalim.
11Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, “ʻIkai naʻaku fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei he kakai ʻIsipite, pea mei he kau ʻAmoli, pea mei he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea mei he kau Filisitia?
11And the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Did not I deliver you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines?
12Pea naʻe taʻomia foki ʻakimoutolu ʻe he kau Saitoni, mo e kau ʻAmaleki, pea mo e kau Maoni: pea ne mou tangi kiate au, pea ne u fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei honau nima.
12The Zidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, did oppress you; and ye cried to me, and I delivered you out of their hand.
13Ka kuo mou liʻaki au ke tauhi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe: ko ia ʻe ʻikai te u kei fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu.
13Yet ye have forsaken me, and served other gods: wherefore I will deliver you no more.
14ʻAlu ʻo tangi ki he ngaahi ʻotua ʻaia kuo mou fili: tuku kenau fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻaho ʻo hoʻomou tuʻutāmaki lahi.”
14Go and cry unto the gods which ye have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation.
15¶ Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kia Sihova, “Kuo mau fai angahala: ke ke fai ʻe koe ʻaia ʻoku lelei kiate koe kiate kimautolu: ka ʻoku mau kole kiate koe ke ke fakamoʻui ʻakimautolu he ʻaho ni.”
15¶ And the children of Israel said unto the LORD , We have sinned: do thou unto us whatsoever seemeth good unto thee; deliver us only, we pray thee, this day.
16Pea naʻa nau tukuange ʻiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe naʻe ʻiate kinautolu, ʻonau tauhi ʻa Sihova: pea naʻe mamahi hono laumālie ʻi he mamahi ʻa ʻIsileli.
16And they put away the strange gods from among them, and served the LORD : and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel.
17Pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ai ʻae fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, ʻonau ʻapitanga ʻi Kiliati. Pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻonau ʻapitanga ʻi Misipa.
17Then the children of Ammon were gathered together, and encamped in Gilead. And the children of Israel assembled themselves together, and encamped in Mizpeh.
18Pea naʻe fepehēʻaki ʻe he kakai mo e houʻeiki ʻo Kiliati, “Ko hai ʻae tangata ʻe kamata ʻae tau ki he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni? ʻE hoko ia ko e ʻeiki ki he kakai kotoa pē ʻo Kiliati.”
18And the people and 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.
