1 And after 310 Abimelech 40 there arose 6965 to defend 3467 Israel 3478 Tola 8439 the son 1121 of Puah 6312, the son 1121 of Dodo 1734, a man 376 of Issachar 3485; and he dwelt 3427 in Shamir 8069 in mount 2022 Ephraim 669.
2 And he judged 8199 Israel 3478 twenty 6242 and three 7969 years 8141, and died 4191, and was buried 6912 in Shamir 8069.
3 And after 310 him arose 6965 Jair 2971, a Gileadite 1569, and judged 8199 Israel 3478 twenty 6242 and two 8147 years 8141.
4 And he had thirty 7970 sons 1121 that rode 7392 on thirty 7970 ass colts 5895, and they had thirty 7970 cities 5892, which are called 7121 Havothjair 2334 unto this day 3117, which are in the land 776 of Gilead 1568.
5 And Jair 2971 died 4191, and was buried 6912 in Camon 7056.
6 And the children 1121 of Israel 3478 did 6213 evil 7451 again 3254 in the sight 5869 of the LORD 3068, and served 5647 Baalim 1168, and Ashtaroth 6252, and the gods 430 of Syria 758, and the gods 430 of Zidon 6721, and the gods 430 of Moab 4124, and the gods 430 of the children 1121 of Ammon 5983, and the gods 430 of the Philistines 6430, and forsook 5800 the LORD 3068, and served 5647 not him.
7 And the anger 639 of the LORD 3068 was hot 2734 against Israel 3478, and he sold 4376 them into the hands 3027 of the Philistines 6430, and into the hands 3027 of the children 1121 of Ammon 5983.
8 And that year 8141 they vexed 7492 and oppressed 7533 the children 1121 of Israel 3478: eighteen 8083 6240 years 8141, all the children 1121 of Israel 3478 that were on the other side 5676 Jordan 3383 in the land 776 of the Amorites 567, which is in Gilead 1568.
9 Moreover the children 1121 of Ammon 5983 passed over 5674 Jordan 3383 to fight 3898 also against Judah 3063, and against Benjamin 1144, and against the house 1004 of Ephraim 669; so that Israel 3478 was sore 3966 distressed 3334.
10 And the children 1121 of Israel 3478 cried 2199 unto the LORD 3068, saying 559, We have sinned 2398 against thee, both because we have forsaken 5800 our God 430, and also served 5647 Baalim 1168.
11 And the LORD 3068 said 559 unto the children 1121 of Israel 3478, Did not I deliver you from the Egyptians 4714, and from the Amorites 567, from the children 1121 of Ammon 5983, and from the Philistines 6430?
12 The Zidonians 6722 also, and the Amalekites 6002, and the Maonites 4584, did oppress 3905 you; and ye cried 6817 to me, and I delivered 3467 you out of their hand 3027.
13 Yet ye have forsaken 5800 me, and served 5647 other 312 gods 430: wherefore I will deliver 3467 you no more 3254.
14 Go 3212 and cry 2199 unto the gods 430 which ye have chosen 977; let them 1992 deliver 3467 you in the time 6256 of your tribulation 6869.
15 And the children 1121 of Israel 3478 said 559 unto the LORD 3068, We have sinned 2398: do 6213 thou unto us whatsoever seemeth 5869 good 2896 unto thee; deliver 5337 us only, we pray thee, this day 3117.
16 And they put away 5493 the strange 5236 gods 430 from among 7130 them, and served 5647 the LORD 3068: and his soul 5315 was grieved 7114 for the misery 5999 of Israel 3478.
17 Then the children 1121 of Ammon 5983 were gathered together 6817, and encamped 2583 in Gilead 1568. And the children 1121 of Israel 3478 assembled themselves together 622, and encamped 2583 in Mizpeh 4709.
18 And the people 5971 and princes 8269 of Gilead 1568 said 559 one 376 to another 7453, What man 376 is he that will begin 2490 to fight 3898 against the children 1121 of Ammon 5983? he shall be head 7218 over all the inhabitants 3427 of Gilead 1568.
