2 And he judged <08199> (8799) Israel <03478> twenty <06242> and three <07969> years <08141>, and died <04191> (8799), and was buried <06912> (8735) in Shamir <08069>.
3 And after <0310> him arose <06965> (8799) Jair <02971>, a Gileadite <01569>, and judged <08199> (8799) Israel <03478> twenty <06242> and two <08147> years <08141>.
4 And he had thirty <07970> sons <01121> that rode <07392> (8802) on thirty <07970> ass colts <05895> , and they had thirty <07970> cities <05892>, which are called <07121> (8799) Havothjair <02334> unto this day <03117>, which are in the land <0776> of Gilead <01568>.
5 And Jair <02971> died <04191> (8799), and was buried <06912> (8735) in Camon <07056>.
6 # And the children <01121> of Israel <03478> did <06213> (8800) evil <07451> again <03254> (8686) in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and served <05647> (8799) Baalim <01168>, and Ashtaroth <06252>, and the gods <0430> of Syria <0758>, and the gods <0430> of Zidon <06721>, and the gods <0430> of Moab <04124>, and the gods <0430> of the children <01121> of Ammon <05983>, and the gods <0430> of the Philistines <06430>, and forsook <05800> (8799) the LORD <03068>, and served <05647> (8804) not him.
7 And the anger <0639> of the LORD <03068> was hot <02734> (8799) against Israel <03478>, and he sold <04376> (8799) them into the hands <03027> of the Philistines <06430>, and into the hands <03027> of the children <01121> of Ammon <05983>.
8 And that year <08141> they vexed <07492> (8799) and oppressed <07533> (8779) the children <01121> of Israel <03478>: eighteen <08083> <06240> years <08141>, all the children <01121> of Israel <03478> that were on the other side <05676> Jordan <03383> in the land <0776> of the Amorites <0567>, which is in Gilead <01568>.
9 Moreover the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> passed over <05674> (8799) Jordan <03383> to fight <03898> (8736) also against Judah <03063>, and against Benjamin <01144>, and against the house <01004> of Ephraim <0669>; so that Israel <03478> was sore <03966> distressed <03334> (8799).
10 # And the children <01121> of Israel <03478> cried <02199> (8799) unto the LORD <03068>, saying <0559> (8800), We have sinned <02398> (8804) against thee, both because we have forsaken <05800> (8804) our God <0430>, and also served <05647> (8799) Baalim <01168>.
11 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto the children <01121> of Israel <03478>, Did not I deliver you from the Egyptians <04714>, and from the Amorites <0567>, from the children <01121> of Ammon <05983>, and from the Philistines <06430> ?
12 The Zidonians <06722> also, and the Amalekites <06002>, and the Maonites <04584>, did oppress <03905> (8804) you; and ye cried <06817> (8799) to me, and I delivered <03467> (8686) you out of their hand <03027>.
13 Yet ye have forsaken <05800> (8804) me, and served <05647> (8799) other <0312> gods <0430>: wherefore I will deliver <03467> (8687) you no more <03254> (8686).
14 Go <03212> (8798) and cry <02199> (8798) unto the gods <0430> which ye have chosen <0977> (8804); let them <01992> deliver <03467> (8686) you in the time <06256> of your tribulation <06869>.
15 And the children <01121> of Israel <03478> said <0559> (8799) unto the LORD <03068>, We have sinned <02398> (8804): do <06213> (8798) thou unto us whatsoever seemeth <05869> good <02896> unto thee; deliver <05337> (8685) us only, we pray thee, this day <03117>.
16 And they put away <05493> (8686) the strange <05236> gods <0430> from among <07130> them, and served <05647> (8799) the LORD <03068>: and his soul <05315> was grieved <07114> (8799) for the misery <05999> of Israel <03478> .
17 Then the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> were gathered together <06817> (8735), and encamped <02583> (8799) in Gilead <01568>. And the children <01121> of Israel <03478> assembled themselves together <0622> (8735), and encamped <02583> (8799) in Mizpeh <04709>.
18 And the people <05971> and princes <08269> of Gilead <01568> said <0559> (8799) one <0376> to another <07453>, What man <0376> is he that will begin <02490> (8686) to fight <03898> (8736) against the children <01121> of Ammon <05983>? he shall be head <07218> over all the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Gilead <01568>.
