[1] After Abimelech, Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, arose to save Israel. He lived in Shamir in the hill country of Ephraim. [2] He judged Israel twenty-three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir. [3] After him Jair, the Gileadite, arose. He judged Israel twenty-two years. [4] He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkey colts. They had thirty cities, which are called Havvoth Jair to this day, which are in the land of Gilead. [5] Jair died, and was buried in Kamon. [6] The children of Israel again did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, and served the Baals, the Ashtaroth, the gods of Syria, the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines. They abandoned Yahweh, and didn’t serve him. [7] Yahweh’s anger burned against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of the Philistines and into the hand of the children of Ammon. [8] They troubled and oppressed the children of Israel that year. For eighteen years they oppressed all the children of Israel that were beyond the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, which is in Gilead. [9] 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 very distressed. [10] The children of Israel cried to Yahweh, saying, “We have sinned against you, even because we have forsaken our God, and have served the Baals.” [11] Yahweh said to the children of Israel, “Didn’t I save you from the Egyptians, and from the Amorites, from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines? [12] The Sidonians also, and the Amalekites, and the Maonites, oppressed you; and you cried to me, and I saved you out of their hand. [13] Yet you have forsaken me and served other gods. Therefore I will save you no more. [14] Go and cry to the gods which you have chosen. Let them save you in the time of your distress!” [15] The children of Israel said to Yahweh, “We have sinned! Do to us whatever seems good to you; only deliver us, please, today.” [16] They put away the foreign gods from among them and served Yahweh; and his soul was grieved for the misery of Israel. [17] Then the children of Ammon were gathered together and encamped in Gilead. The children of Israel assembled themselves together and encamped in Mizpah. [18] The people, the princes of Gilead, said to one another, “Who is the man who will begin to fight against the children of Ammon? He shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.”

Minor Judges
[1] And after H310 Abimelech H40 there arose H6965 (QalImpf) to defend H3467 (HiphInf)§ Israel H3478 Tola H8439 the son H1121 of Puah, H6312 the son H1121 of Dodo, H1734 a man H376 of Issachar; H3485 and he dwelt H3427 (QalActPtc) in Shamir H8069 in mount H2022 Ephraim. H669 [2] And he judged H8199 (QalImpf) Israel H3478 twenty H6242 and three H7969 years, H8141 and died, H4191 (QalImpf) and was buried H6912 (NiphImpf) in Shamir. H8069 [3] And after H310 him arose H6965 (QalImpf) Jair, H2971 a Gileadite, H1569 and judged H8199 (QalImpf) Israel H3478 twenty H6242 and two H8147 years. H8141 [4] And he had thirty H7970 sons H1121 that rode H7392 (QalActPtc) on thirty H7970 ass colts, H5895 and they had thirty H7970 cities, H5892 which are called H7121 (QalImpf) Havoth-jair H2334§ unto this day, H3117 which are in the land H776 of Gilead. H1568 [5] And Jair H2971 died, H4191 (QalImpf) and was buried H6912 (NiphImpf) in Camon. H7056Serving other Gods
[6] And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 did H6213 (QalInf) evil H7451 again H3254 (HiphImpf) in the sight H5869 of the Lord, H3068 and served H5647 (QalImpf) Baalim, H1168 and Ashtaroth, H6252 and the gods H430 of Syria, H758 and the gods H430 of Zidon, H6721 and the gods H430 of Moab, H4124 and the gods H430 of the children H1121 of Ammon, H5983 and the gods H430 of the Philistines, H6430 and forsook H5800 (QalImpf) the Lord, H3068 and served H5647 (QalPerf) not him. [7] And the anger H639 of the Lord H3068 was hot H2734 (QalImpf) against Israel, H3478 and he sold H4376 (QalImpf) them into the hands H3027 of the Philistines, H6430 and into the hands H3027 of the children H1121 of Ammon. H5983 [8] And that year H8141 they vexed H7492 (QalImpf) and oppressed H7533 (PoelImpf)§ the children H1121 of Israel: H3478 eighteen H8083 years, H8141 all the children H1121 of Israel H3478 that were on the other side H5676 Jordan H3383 in the land H776 of the Amorites, H567 which is in Gilead. H1568 [9] Moreover the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 passed over H5674 (QalImpf) Jordan H3383 to fight H3898 (NiphInf) also against Judah, H3063 and against Benjamin, H1144 and against the house H1004 of Ephraim; H669 so that Israel H3478 was sore H3966 distressed. H3334 (QalImpf) [10] And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cried H2199 (QalImpf) unto the Lord, H3068 saying, H559 (QalInf) We have sinned H2398 (QalPerf) against thee, both because we have forsaken H5800 (QalPerf) our God, H430 and also served H5647 (QalImpf) Baalim. H1168 [11] And the Lord H3068 said H559 (QalImpf) unto the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 Did not I deliver you from the Egyptians, H4714 and from the Amorites, H567 from the children H1121 of Ammon, H5983 and from the Philistines? H6430 [12] The Zidonians H6722 also, and the Amalekites, H6002 and the Maonites, H4584 did oppress H3905 (QalPerf) you; and ye cried H6817 (QalImpf) to me, and I delivered H3467 (HiphImpf) you out of their hand. H3027 [13] Yet ye have forsaken H5800 (QalPerf) me, and served H5647 (QalImpf) other H312 gods: H430 wherefore I will deliver H3467 (HiphInf) you no more. H3254 (HiphImpf) [14] Go H3212 (QalImpv) and cry H2199 (QalImpv) unto the gods H430 which ye have chosen; H977 (QalPerf) let them H1992 deliver H3467 (HiphImpf) you in the time H6256 of your tribulation. H6869 [15] And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 said H559 (QalImpf) unto the Lord, H3068 We have sinned: H2398 (QalPerf) do H6213 (QalImpv) thou unto us whatsoever seemeth H5869 good H2896 unto thee;§ deliver H5337 (HiphImpv) us only, we pray thee, this day. H3117 [16] And they put away H5493 (HiphImpf) the strange H5236 gods H430§ from among H7130 them, and served H5647 (QalImpf) the Lord: H3068 and his soul H5315 was grieved H7114 (QalImpf)§ for the misery H5999 of Israel. H3478The Ammonites
[17] Then the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 were gathered together, H6817 (NiphImpf)§ and encamped H2583 (QalImpf) in Gilead. H1568 And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 assembled themselves together, H622 (NiphImpf) and encamped H2583 (QalImpf) in Mizpeh. H4709 [18] And the people H5971 and princes H8269 of Gilead H1568 said H559 (QalImpf) one H376 to another, H7453 What man H376 is he that will begin H2490 (HiphImpf) to fight H3898 (NiphInf) against the children H1121 of Ammon? H5983 he shall be head H7218 over all the inhabitants H3427 (QalActPtc) of Gilead. H1568Footnotes
