After the
time
of
Abimelech ,
a
man
of
Issachar,
Tola son of Puah, the son of Dodo, rose

He lived
in Shamir ,
in the hill country of Ephraim.
And
he
judged Israel twenty and
three years, and died, and
was buried in Shamir.

and
he
judged Israel twenty and
two years.
Tola
was
followed
by
Jair the Gileadite ,
who
judged Israel twenty -
two years.
And
he had thirty sons that
rode on thirty ass

and they had thirty cities
, which are called Havvoth-jair unto
this
day,
which

the
land
of

.
He had thirty sons who

And 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.
And again the
Israelites
did evil in the sight of the
LORD.
They
served the Baals
, the Ashtoreths
, the gods of Aram
, Sidon, and Moab, and the gods of the Ammonites
and Philistines .
Thus
they forsook the
LORD
and did
not serve
Him
.
And
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.
So
the anger of the
LORD
burned
against Israel, and He sold them into the hands
of the Philistines and Ammonites,
And
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
.
who
that
very
year
harassed
and oppressed the Israelites,
and
did
so
for
eighteen years to
all the Israelites
on
the
other
side
of the Jordan in Gilead,
the land of the Amorites.
And
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
.
The Ammonites
also
crossed
the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin, and the house of Ephraim ,
and
Israel was in
deep
distress
.
And
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
.
Then
the Israelites
cried out
to
the
LORD
, saying, “
We have sinned against You
, for
we have indeed
forsaken our God and served the Baals
. ”
And
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 ?
The LORD
replied
, “When
the Egyptians, Amorites, Ammonites
, Philistines ,
The
Sidonians also
, and
the
Amalekites, and the
Maonites ,
did
oppress
you ;
and ye
cried unto
me, and
I saved
you out
of
their hand.
Sidonians, Amalekites, and Maonites oppressed
you and you
cried out
to
Me, did
I not
save
you from
their hands?
Yet
ye
have forsaken me ,
and served other gods :
wherefore
I will save you no
more
.
But
you
have forsaken Me and served other gods ,
so
I will no
longer
save you.
Go and cry unto
the gods which
ye
have chosen ;
let them save you in the
time of your
distress
.
Go and cry out
to
the gods you
have chosen .
Let them save you in your
time of trouble
. ”
And
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.
“
We have sinned ,”
the
Israelites
said
to
the
LORD.
“Deal
with
us as
You
see
fit
; but
please
deliver us today!”
And
they put away the foreign gods from among them ,
and served Jehovah;
and his
soul
was
grieved
for
the misery of Israel.
So
they put away the foreign gods from among them and served the
LORD,
and He
could
no
longer
bear
the misery of Israel.
Then the children
of
Ammon
were gathered
together,
and encamped
in Gilead .
And the children
of
Israel
assembled themselves
together,
and encamped
in
Mizpah.
Then the Ammonites
were called
to
arms
and camped
in Gilead ,
and the Israelites
assembled and camped
at
Mizpah.
And 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.
And the rulers
of Gilead said to one
another, “Whoever
will launch
the
attack
against the Ammonites
will
be the head
of all
who
live
in
Gilead. ”
