Tola

10Tola son of Puah, the son of Dodo, was next after Abimelech. He rose to the occasion to save Israel. He was a man of Issachar. He lived in Shamir in the hill country of Ephraim.H310H40H6965H3467H3478H8439H1121H6312H1121H1734H376H3485H3427H8069H2022H669 2He judged Israel for twenty-three years and then died and was buried at Shamir.H8199H3478H6242H7969H8141H4191H6912H8069

Jair

3After him, Jair the Gileadite stepped into leadership. He judged Israel for twenty-two years.H310H6965H2971H1569H8199H3478H6242H8147H8141 4He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkeys and had thirty towns in Gilead. The towns are still called Jair's Villages.H7970H1121H7392H7970H5895H7970H5892H7121H2334H3117H776H1568 5Jair died and was buried in Kamon.H2971H4191H6912H7056 6And then the People of Israel went back to doing evil in GOD's sight. They worshiped the Baal gods and Ashtoreth goddesses: gods of Aram, Sidon, and Moab; gods of the Ammonites and the Philistines. They just walked off and left GOD, quit worshiping him.H1121H3478H6213H7451H3254H5869H3068H5647H1168H6252H430H758H430H6721H430H4124H430H1121H5983H430H6430H5800H3068H5647 7And GOD exploded in hot anger at Israel and sold them off to the Philistines and Ammonites, who,H639H3068H2734H3478H4376H3027H6430H3027H1121H5983 8beginning that year, bullied and battered the People of Israel mercilessly. For eighteen years they had them under their thumb, all the People of Israel who lived east of the Jordan in the Amorite country of Gilead.H8141H7492H7533H1121H3478H8083H6240H8141H1121H3478H5676H3383H776H567H1568 9Then the Ammonites crossed the Jordan to go to war also against Judah, Benjamin, and Ephraim. Israel was in a bad way!H1121H5983H5674H3383H3898H3063H1144H1004H669H3478H3966H3334 10The People of Israel cried out to GOD for help: "We've sinned against you! We left our God and worshiped the Baal gods!"H1121H3478H2199H3068H559H2398H5800H430H5647H1168 11GOD answered the People of Israel: "When the Egyptians, Amorites, Ammonites, Philistines, Sidonians—H3068H559H1121H3478H4714H567H1121H5983H6430 12even Amalek and Midian!—oppressed you and you cried out to me for help, I saved you from them.H6722H6002H4584H3905H6817H3467H3027 13And now you've gone off and betrayed me, worshiping other gods. I'm not saving you anymore.H5800H5647H312H430H3467H3254 14Go ahead! Cry out for help to the gods you've chosen—let them get you out of the mess you're in!"H3212H2199H430H977H1992H3467H6256H6869 15The People of Israel said to GOD: "We've sinned. Do to us whatever you think best, but please, get us out of this!"H1121H3478H559H3068H2398H6213H5869H2896H5337H3117 16Then they cleaned house of the foreign gods and worshiped only GOD. And GOD took Israel's troubles to heart.H5493H5236H430H7130H5647H3068H5315H7114H5999H3478

Jephthah

17The Ammonites prepared for war, setting camp in Gilead. The People of Israel set their rival camp in Mizpah.H1121H5983H6817H2583H1568H1121H3478H622H2583H4709 18The leaders in Gilead said, "Who will stand up for us against the Ammonites? We'll make him head over everyone in Gilead!"H5971H8269H1568H559H376H7453H376H2490H3898H1121H5983H7218H3427H1568
