International Standard Version

1After Abimelech, Tola son of Puah, son of Dodo became judge and began to deliver Israel. He was from Issachar and lived in Shamir in the hill country of Ephraim.

1A man from the tribe of Issachar, Puah's son Tola, grandson of Dodo, arose to save Israel. He lived in Shamir, in the mountainous region of Ephraim.

2Tola judged Israel twenty-three years and when he died, was buried in Shamir.

2He governed Israel for 23 years and then died. He was buried in Shamir.

3After him came Jair the Gileadite, who judged Israel twenty-two years.

3After him, Jair the Gileadite arose and governed Israel for 22 years.

4He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkeys. They had thirty towns in Gilead, which are still called Jair's Villages today.

4His 30 sons rode on 30 donkeys, controlling 30 cities in the territory of Gilead named Havvoth-jair to this day.

5When Jair died, he was buried in Kamon.

5Jair died and was buried in Kamon.

6Then the Israelites again did what was evil in the sight of the LORD. They worshiped the Baals and the Ashtoreths, the gods of Aram, Sidon, and Moab, and the gods of the Ammonites and the Philistines. They abandoned the LORD and did not worship him.

6Later on, the Israelis again practiced what the LORD considered to be evil by serving the Baals, the stars, the gods of Aram, the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of the descendants of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines. In doing so, they ignored the LORD and wouldn't serve him.

7So the LORD's anger burned against Israel, and he sold them to the Philistines and the Ammonites.

7In his burning anger against Israel, he sold them into domination by the Philistines and the Ammonites,

8They shattered and crushed the Israelites that year, and for eighteen years they did the same to all the Israelites who were on the other side of the Jordan in the land of the Amorites in Gilead.

8who trampled and troubled the Israelis during that year—eighteen years for the Israelis who lived east of the Jordan River in Gilead, the land occupied by the Amorites.

9The Ammonites also crossed the Jordan to fight against Judah, Benjamin, and the house of Ephraim. Israel was greatly oppressed,

9The Ammonites crossed the Jordan River to fight against the tribes of Judah, Benjamin, and the house of Ephraim. As a result, Israel was deeply distressed.

10so they cried out to the LORD, saying, "We have sinned against you. We have abandoned our God and worshiped the Baals."

10Then the Israelis cried out to the LORD and told him, "We have sinned against you because we have abandoned our God to serve the Baals."

11The LORD said to the Israelites, "When the Egyptians, Amorites, Ammonites, Philistines,

11The LORD replied to the Israelis, "Aren't you away from the Egyptians, the Amorites, the Ammonites, and the Philistines?

12Sidonians, Amalekites, and Maonites oppressed you, and you cried out to me, did I not deliver you from them?

12And when the Sidonians, the Amalekites, and the Maonites harassed you, you cried out to me, and I delivered you from under their domination.

13But you have abandoned me and worshiped other gods. Therefore, I will not deliver you again.

13But you have abandoned me and served other gods. Therefore I will no longer be delivering you.

14Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them deliver you whenever you are oppressed."

14Go and cry out to the gods that you have chosen for yourselves. Let them deliver you in your time of trouble."

15But the Israelites said, "We have sinned. Deal with us as you see fit; only rescue us today!"

15The Israelis replied to the LORD, "We have sinned, so do to us anything that's right to do in your opinion, just please deliver us right now."

16So they got rid of the foreign gods among them and worshiped the LORD, and he became weary of Israel's misery.

16When they put away their foreign gods and served the LORD, he brought Israel's misery to an end.

17The Ammonites were called together, and they camped in Gilead. So the Israelites assembled and camped at Mizpah.

17The Ammonites were summoned and they encamped in Gilead. The Israelis assembled together and encamped in Mizpah.

18The rulers of Gilead said to one another, "Which man will begin the fight against the Ammonites? He will be the leader of all the inhabitants of Gilead."

18The people and Gilead's officials inquired among themselves, "Who will begin our attack against the Ammonites? He'll become head over everyone who lives in Gilead."
