1. അനന്തരം യെരുബ്ബാലിന്റെ മകനായ അബീമേലെക് ശെഖേമില് തന്റെ അമ്മയുടെ സഹോദരന്മാരുടെ അടുക്കല് ചെന്നു അവരോടും തന്റെ അമ്മയുടെ പിതൃഭവനമായ സര്വ്വകുടുംബത്തോടും സംസാരിച്ചു

1. యెరుబ్బయలు కుమారుడైన అబీమెలెకు షెకెములో నున్న తన తల్లి సహోదరుల యొద్దకు పోయి వారి తోను తన తల్లి పితరుల కుటుంబికులందరితోను

2. യെരുബ്ബാലിന്റെ എഴുപതു പുത്രന്മാരുംകൂടെ നിങ്ങളെ ഭരിക്കുന്നതോ ഒരുത്തന് നിങ്ങളെ ഭരിക്കുന്നതോ നിങ്ങള്ക്കു ഏതു നല്ലതു? ഞാന് നിങ്ങളുടെ അസ്ഥിയും മാംസവും ആകുന്നു എന്നു ഔര്ത്തുകൊള്വിന് എന്നു ശെഖേമിലെ സകലപൌരന്മാരോടും പറവിന് എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

2. మీరు దయచేసి షెకెము యజమానులందరు వినునట్లు వారితో మాటలాడి మీకేది మంచిది? యెరుబ్బయలు యొక్క కుమారులైన డెబ్బదిమంది మనుష్యులందరు మిమ్మును ఏలుట మంచిదా? ఒక్క మనుష్యుడు మిమ్మును ఏలుట మంచిదా? నేను మీ రక్తసంబంధినని జ్ఞాపకముచేసికొనుడి అని పలుకుడనెను.

3. അങ്ങനെ അവന്റെ അമ്മയുടെ സഹോദരന്മാര് ശെഖേമിലെ സകലപൌരന്മാരോടും ഈ വാക്കുകളൊക്കെയും അവന്നു വേണ്ടി സംസാരിച്ചപ്പോള് അവരുടെ ഹൃദയം അബീമേലെക്കിങ്കല് ചാഞ്ഞുഅവന് നമ്മുടെ സഹോദരനല്ലോ എന്നു അവര് പറഞ്ഞു.

3. అతని తల్లి సహోదరులు అతని గూర్చి షెకెము యజమానులు వినునట్లు ఆ మాటలన్నియు చెప్పగా వారు ఇతడు మన సహోదరుడనుకొని తమ హృదయము అబీమెలెకు తట్టు త్రిప్పుకొనిరి;

4. പിന്നെ അവര് ബാല്ബെരീത്തിന്റെ ക്ഷേത്രത്തില്നിന്നു എഴുപതു വെള്ളിക്കാശു എടുത്തു അവന്നു കൊടുത്തു; അതിനെക്കൊണ്ടു അബീമേലെക് തുമ്പുകെട്ടവരും നിസ്സാരന്മാരുമായ ആളുകളെ കൂലിക്കു വാങ്ങി അവര്ക്കും നായകനായ്തീര്ന്നു.

4. అప్పుడు వారు బయల్బెరీతు గుడిలోనుండి డెబ్బది తులముల వెండి తెచ్చి అతనికియ్యగా వాటితో అబీమెలెకు అల్లరి జనమును కూలికి పెట్టుకొనెను, వారు అతని వశమున నుండిరి.

5. അവന് ഒഫ്രയില് തന്റെ അപ്പന്റെ വീട്ടില് ചെന്നു യെരുബ്ബാലിന്റെ പുത്രന്മാരായി തന്റെ സഹോദരന്മാരായ എഴുപതുപേരെയും ഒരു കല്ലിന്മേല് വെച്ചു കൊന്നു; എന്നാല് യെരുബ്ബാലിന്റെ ഇളയമകനായ യോഥാം ഒളിച്ചുകളഞ്ഞതുകൊണ്ടു ശേഷിച്ചു.

5. తరువాత అతడు ఒఫ్రాలోనున్న తన తండ్రి యింటికి పోయి యెరుబ్బయలు కుమారులును తన సహోదరులునైన ఆ డెబ్బదిమంది మనుష్యులను ఒక్క రాతిమీద చంపెను. యెరుబ్బయలు చిన్న కుమారుడైన యోతాము మాత్రమే దాగియుండి తప్పించుకొనెను.

6. അതിന്റെ ശേഷം ശെഖേമിലെ സകല പൌരന്മാരും മില്ലോഗൃഹമൊക്കെയും ഒരുമിച്ചുകൂടി ചെന്നു ശെഖേമിലെ ജ്ഞാപകസ്തംഭത്തിന്നരികെയുള്ള കരുവേലകത്തിങ്കല്വെച്ചു അബീമേലെക്കിനെ രാജാവാക്കി.

6. తరువాత షెకెము యజమానులందరును మిల్లో ఇంటివారందరును కూడివచ్చి షెకెములోనున్న మస్తకి వృక్షము క్రింద దండు పాళెమునొద్ద అబీమెలెకును రాజుగా నియమించిరి.

7. ഇതിനെക്കുറിച്ചു യോഥാമിന്നു അറിവു കിട്ടിയപ്പോള് അവന് ഗെരിസ്സീംമലമുകളില് ചെന്നു ഉച്ചത്തില് അവരോടു വിളിച്ചുപറഞ്ഞതെന്തെന്നാല്ശെഖേംപൌരന്മാരേ, ദൈവം നിങ്ങളുടെ സങ്കടം കേള്ക്കേണ്ടതിന്നു നിങ്ങള് എന്റെ സങ്കടം കേള്പ്പിന് .

7. అది యోతామునకు తెలియబడినప్పుడు అతడు పోయి గెరిజీము కొండకొప్పున నిలిచి యెలుగెత్తి పిలిచి వారితో ఇట్లనెను షెకెము యజమానులారా, మీరు నా మాట వినిన యెడల దేవుడు మీ మాట వినును.

8. പണ്ടൊരിക്കല് വൃക്ഷങ്ങള് തങ്ങള്ക്കു ഒരു രാജാവിനെ അഭിഷേകം ചെയ്വാന് പോയി; അവ ഒലിവു വൃക്ഷത്തോടുനീ ഞങ്ങള്ക്കു രാജാവായിരിക്ക എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

8. చెట్లు తమమీద రాజును ఒకనిని అభిషేకించు కొనవలెనను మనస్సు కలిగి బయలుదేరి

9. അതിന്നു ഒലിവു വൃക്ഷംദൈവവും മനുഷ്യരും എന്നെ പുകഴ്ത്തുവാന് ഹേതുവായിരിക്കുന്ന എന്റെ പുഷ്ടി ഞാന് ഉപേക്ഷിച്ചു വൃക്ഷങ്ങളുടെമേല് ആടുവാന് പോകുമോ എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

9. మమ్మును ఏలుమని ఒలీవచెట్టు నడుగగా ఒలీవచెట్టు దేవునిని మానవులను దేనివలన నరులు సన్మానించుదురో ఆ నా తైలము నియ్యకమాని చెట్లమీద రాజునైయుండి యిటు అటు ఊగుటకు నేను వచ్చెదనా? అని వాటితో అనెను.

10. പിന്നെ വൃക്ഷങ്ങള് അത്തിവൃക്ഷത്തോടുനീ വന്നു ഞങ്ങള്ക്കു രാജാവായിരിക്ക എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

10. అప్పుడు చెట్లు నీవు వచ్చి మమ్మును ఏలుమని అంజూరపు చెట్టు నడుగగా

11. അതിന്നു അത്തിവൃക്ഷംഎന്റെ മധുരവും വിശേഷപ്പെട്ട പഴവും ഞാന് ഉപേക്ഷിച്ചു വൃക്ഷങ്ങളുടെ മേല് ആടുവാന് പോകുമോ എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

11. అంజూరపు చెట్టుచెట్ల మీద రాజునైయుండి యిటు అటు ఊగుటకు నా మాధుర్యమును నా మంచి ఫలములను నేనియ్యక మానుదునా? అని వాటితో అనెను.

12. പിന്നെ വൃക്ഷങ്ങള് മുന്തിരിവള്ളിയോടുനീ വന്നു ഞങ്ങള്ക്കു രാജാവായിരിക്ക എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

12. అటుతరువాత చెట్లు నీవు వచ్చి మమ్మును ఏలుమని ద్రాక్షావల్లి నడుగగా ద్రాక్షావల్లి

13. മുന്തിരിവള്ളി അവയോടുദൈവത്തെയും മനുഷ്യനെയും ആനന്ദിപ്പിക്കുന്ന എന്റെ രസം ഞാന് ഉപേക്ഷിച്ചു വൃക്ഷങ്ങളുടെമേല് ആടുവാന് പോകുമോ എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

13. దేవునిని మానవులను సంతోషపెట్టు నా ద్రాక్షారసమును నేనియ్యక మాని చెట్లమీద రాజునై యుండి యిటు అటు ఊగుటకు నేను వచ్చెదనా? అని వాటితో అనెను.

14. പിന്നെ വൃക്ഷങ്ങളെല്ലാംകൂടെ മുള്പടര്പ്പിനോടുനീ വന്നു ഞങ്ങള്ക്കു രാജാവായിരിക്ക എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

14. అప్పుడు చెట్లన్నియు నీవు వచ్చి మమ్మును ఏలుమని ముండ్లపొద యొద్ద మనవిచేయగా

15. മുള്പടര്പ്പു വൃക്ഷങ്ങളോടുനിങ്ങള് യഥാര്ത്ഥമായി എന്നെ നിങ്ങള്ക്കു രാജാവായി അഭിഷേകം ചെയ്യുന്നു എങ്കില് വന്നു എന്റെ നിഴലില് ആശ്രയിപ്പിന് ; അല്ലെങ്കില് മുള്പടര്പ്പില്നിന്നു തീ പുറപ്പെട്ടു ലെബാനോനിലെ ദേവദാരുക്കളെ ദഹിപ്പിക്കട്ടെ എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

15. ముండ్ల పొద మీరు నిజముగా నన్ను మీ మీద రాజుగా నియమించుకొన గోరినయెడల రండి నా నీడను ఆశ్రయించుడి; లేదా అగ్ని నాలోనుండి బయలుదేరి లెబానోను దేవదారు చెట్లను కాల్చివేయునని చెట్లతో చెప్పెను.

16. നിങ്ങള് ഇപ്പോള് അബീമേലെക്കിനെ രാജാവാക്കിയതില് വിശ്വസ്തതയും പരമാര്ത്ഥതയുമാകുന്നുവോ പ്രവര്ത്തിച്ചതു? നിങ്ങള് യെരുബ്ബാലിനോടും അവന്റെ കുടുംബത്തോടും നന്മയാകുന്നുവോ ചെയ്തതു? അവന്റെ പ്രവൃത്തിയുടെ യോഗ്യതെക്കു തക്കവണ്ണമോ അവനോടു പ്രവര്ത്തിച്ചതു?

16. నా తండ్రి మీ నిమిత్తము తన ప్రాణమును నిర్లక్ష్యపెట్టి యుద్ధము చేసి మిద్యానీయుల చేతిలోనుండి మిమ్మును విడిపించెను.

17. എന്റെ അപ്പന് തന്റെ ജീവനെ ഗണ്യമാക്കാതെ നിങ്ങള്ക്കു വേണ്ടി യുദ്ധംചെയ്തു മിദ്യാന്റെ കയ്യില്നിന്നു നിങ്ങളെ രക്ഷിച്ചിരിക്കെ

17. అయితే మీరు నా తండ్రి కుటుంబము మీదికి లేచి, యొక రాతిమీద అతని కుమారులైన డెబ్బదిమంది మనుష్యులను చంపి, అతని పనికత్తె కుమారుడైన అబీమెలెకు మీ సహోదరుడైనందున షెకెము వారిమీద అతనిని రాజుగా నియమించి యున్నారు. యెరుబ్బయలు ఎడలను అతని యింటి వారియెడలను మీరు ఉపకారము చేయకయు

18. നിങ്ങള് ഇന്നു എന്റെ അപ്പന്റെ ഗൃഹത്തിന്നു വിരോധമായി എഴുന്നേറ്റു അവന്റെ പുത്രന്മാരായ എഴുപതുപേരെയും ഒരു കല്ലിന്മേല്വെച്ചു കൊല്ലുകയും അവന്റെ ദാസിയുടെ മകനായ അബീമേലെക് നിങ്ങളുടെ സഹോദരന് ആയിരിക്കകൊണ്ടു അവനെ ശെഖേംപൌരന്മാര്ക്കും രാജാവാക്കുകയും ചെയ്തുവല്ലോ.

18. అతడు చేసిన క్రియలకు మీరు ప్రతిక్రియ చేయకయు అబీమెలెకును రాజుగా నియమించుకొనిన విషయములో మీరు న్యాయముగాను యథార్థముగాను ప్రవర్తించిన యెడల

19. ഇങ്ങനെ നിങ്ങള് ഇന്നു യെരുബ്ബാലിനോടും അവന്റെ കുടുംബത്തോടും ചെയ്തതു വിശ്വസ്തതയും പരമാര്ത്ഥതയും എന്നുവരികില് നിങ്ങള് അബീമേലെക്കില് സന്തോഷിപ്പിന് ; അവന് നിങ്ങളിലും സന്തോഷിക്കട്ടെ.

19. నేడు మీరు యెరుబ్బయలు ఎడలను అతని యింటివారి యెడలను సత్యముగాను యథార్థముగాను ప్రవర్తించిన యెడల, అబీమెలెకునందు సంతోషించుడి అతడు మీ యందు సంతోషించునుగాక.

20. അല്ലെങ്കില് അബീമേലെക്കില്നിന്നു തീ പുറപ്പെട്ടു ശെഖേംപൌരന്മാരെയും മില്ലോഗൃഹത്തെയും ദഹിപ്പിക്കട്ടെ; ശെഖേംപൌരന്മാരില്നിന്നും മില്ലോഗൃഹത്തില്നിന്നും തീ പുറപ്പെട്ടു അബീമേലെക്കിനെയും ദഹിപ്പിക്കട്ടെ.

20. లేనియెడల అబీమెలెకు నుండి అగ్ని బయలుదేరి షెకెమువారిని మిల్లో యింటి వారిని కాల్చివేయునుగాక, షెకె మువారిలోనుండియు మిల్లో యింటినుండియు అగ్ని బయలుదేరి అబీమెలెకును దహించునుగాక అని చెప్పి

21. ഇങ്ങനെ പറഞ്ഞിട്ടു യോഥാം ഔടിപ്പോയി ബേരിലേക്കു ചെന്നു തന്റെ സഹോദരനായ അബീമേലെക്കിനെ പേടിച്ചു അവിടെ പാര്ത്തു.

21. తన సహోదరుడైన అబీమెలెకునకు భయపడి యోతాము పారిపోయి బెయేరునకు వెళ్లి అక్కడ నివసించెను.

22. അബിമേലെക് യിസ്രായേലിനെ മൂന്നു സംവത്സരം ഭരിച്ചശേഷം

22. అబీమెలెకు మూడు సంవత్సరములు ఇశ్రాయేలీయుల మీద ఏలికయై యుండెను.

23. ദൈവം അബീമേലെക്കിന്നും ശെഖേംപൌരന്മാര്ക്കും തമ്മില് ഛിദ്രബുദ്ധി വരുത്തി; ശെഖേംപൌരന്മാര് അബീമേലെക്കിനോടു ദ്രോഹം തുടങ്ങി;

23. అప్పుడు యెరుబ్బయలు డెబ్బదిమంది కుమారులకు చేయబడిన ద్రోహఫలము వారిని చంపిన అబీమెలెకను వారి సహోదరుని మీదికిని,

24. അങ്ങനെ യെരുബ്ബാലിന്റെ എഴുപതു പുത്രന്മാരോടും ചെയ്ത പാതകത്തിന്നു പ്രതികാരം വരികയും അവരുടെ രക്തം അവരെ കൊന്നവനായ അവരുടെ സഹോദരന് അബീമേലെക്കും അവന്റെ സഹോദരന്മാരെ കൊല്ലുവാന് അവന്നു തുണയായിരുന്ന ശെഖേം പൌരന്മാരും ചുമക്കയും ചെയ്തു.

24. అతడు తన సహోదరులను చంపునట్లు అతని చేతులను బలపరచిన షెకెము యజమానుల మీదికిని వచ్చునట్లును, వారు చేసిన ప్రాణహత్య వారి మీద వచ్చునట్లును, దేవుడు అబీమెలెకునకును షెకెము యజమానులకును వైరము కలుగుటకై వారి మీదికి దురాత్మను పంపెను. అప్పుడు షెకెము యజమానులు అబీమెలెకును వంచించిరి.

25. ശെഖേംപൌരന്മാര് മലമുകളില് അവന്നു വിരോധമായി പതിയിരിപ്പുകാരെ ആക്കി, ഇവര് തങ്ങളുടെ സമീപത്തുകൂടി വഴിപേുകന്ന എല്ലാവരോടും കവര്ച്ച തുടങ്ങി; ഇതിനെക്കുറിച്ചു അബീമേലെക്കിന്നു അറിവുകിട്ടി.

25. ఎట్లనగా షెకెము యజమానులు కొండ శిఖరములమీద అతని కొరకు మాటు గాండ్లను ఉంచి, ఆ మార్గమున తమకు సమీపించినవారి నందరిని దోచుకొనిరి; అది అబీమెలెకునకు తెలుపబడెను.

26. അപ്പോള് ഏബെദിന്റെ മകനായ ഗാലും അവന്റെ സഹോദരന്മാരും വന്നു ശെഖേമില് കടന്നു; ശെഖേംപൌരന്മാര് അവനെ വിശ്വസിച്ചു.

26. ఎబెదు కుమారుడైన గాలును అతని బంధువులును వచ్చి షెకెమునకు చేరగా షెకెము యజమానులు అతని ఆశ్రయించిరి.

27. അവര് വയലില് ചെന്നു തങ്ങളുടെ മുന്തിരിത്തോട്ടങ്ങളിലെ കുല അറുത്തു ഉത്സവം കൊണ്ടാടി; തങ്ങളുടെ ദേവന്റെ ക്ഷേത്ത്രില് ചെന്നു തിന്നുകുടിക്കയും അബീമേലെക്കിനെ ശപിക്കയും ചെയ്തു

27. వారు పొలములలోనికి పోయి వారి ద్రాక్ష పండ్లను ఏరుకొని వాటిని త్రొక్కి కృతజ్ఞతార్పణమును చెల్లించి తమ దేవతల మందిరములోనికి పోయి అన్నపానములు పుచ్చుకొనుచు అబీమెలెకును దూషింపగా

28. ഏബെദിന്റെ മകനായ ഗാല് പറഞ്ഞതുഅബീമേലെക്കിനെ നാം സേവിക്കേണ്ടതിന്നു അവന് ആര്? ശെഖേം ആര്? അവന് യെരുബ്ബാലിന്റെ മകനും സെബൂല് അവന്റെ കാര്യസ്ഥനും അല്ലയോ? അവന് ശെഖേമിന്റെ അപ്പനായ ഹാമോരിന്റെ ആളുകളുമായി അവനെ സേവിക്കട്ടെ; നാം അവനെ സേവിക്കുന്നതു എന്തിന്നു?

28. ఎబెదు కుమారుడైన గాలు ఇట్లనెను అబీమెలెకు ఏపాటివాడు? షెకెము ఏపాటివాడు? మనము అతనికెందుకు దాసులము కావలెను? అతడు యెరుబ్బయలు కుమారుడు కాడా? జెబులు అతని ఉద్యోగి కాడా? షెకెము తండ్రియైన హమోరు వారికి దాసులమగుదము గాని మనము అతని కెందుకు దాసులము కావలెను?

29. ഈ ജനം എന്റെ കൈക്കീഴായിരുന്നെങ്കില് ഞാന് അബീമേലെക്കിനെ നീക്കിക്കളകയും അബീമേലെക്കിനോടുനിന്റെ സൈന്യത്തെ വര്ദ്ധിപ്പിച്ചു പുറപ്പെട്ടുവരിക എന്നു പറകയും ചെയ്യുമായിരുന്നു.

29. ఈ జనము నా చేతిలో ఉండిన యెడల ఆహా నేను అబీమెలెకును తొలగింతును గదా అనెను. తరువాత అతడు అబీమెలెకుతో నీ సేనను ఎక్కువ చేసి బయలుదేరి రమ్మనెను.

30. ഏബേദിന്റെ മകനായ ഗാലിന്റെ വാക്കുകളെ കേട്ടപ്പോള് നഗരാധിപനായ സെബൂലിന്റെ കോപം ജ്വലിച്ചു.

30. ఆ పట్టణ ప్రధానియైన జెబులు ఎబెదు కుమారుడైన గాలుమాటలను వినినప్పుడు అతని కోపాగ్ని మండెను.

31. അവന് രഹസ്യമായിട്ടു അബീമേലെക്കിന്റെ അടുക്കല് ദൂതന്മാരെ അയച്ചുഇതാ, ഏബെദിന്റെ മകനായ ഗാലും അവന്റെ സഹോദരന്മാരും ശെഖേമില് വന്നിരിക്കുന്നു; അവര് പട്ടണത്തെ നിന്നോടു മത്സരപ്പിക്കുന്നു.

31. అప్పుడతడు అబీమెలెకు నొద్దకు రహస్యముగా దూతలను పంపి ఇదిగో ఎబెదు కుమారుడైన గాలును అతని బంధువులును షెకెముకు వచ్చి యున్నారు, వారు నీమీదికి ఈ పట్టణమును రేపు చున్నారు.

32. ആകയാല് നീയും നിന്നോടുകൂടെയുള്ള പടജ്ജനവും രാത്രിയില് പുറപ്പെട്ടു വയലില് പതിയിരിന്നുകൊള്വിന് .

32. కావున రాత్రి నీవును నీతోనున్న జనులును లేచి పొలములో మాటుగా నుండుడి,

34. അങ്ങനെ അബീമേലെക്കും കൂടെയുള്ള പടജ്ജനമൊക്കെയും രാത്രിയില് പുറപ്പെട്ടു ശെഖേമിന്നരികെ നാലു കൂട്ടമായി പതിയിരുന്നു.

34. అబీమెలెకును అతనితోనున్న జనులందరును రాత్రివేళ లేచి నాలుగు గుంపులై షెకెము మీద పడుటకు పొంచి యుండిరి.

35. ഏബെദിന്റെ മകനായ ഗാല് പുറപ്പെട്ടു പട്ടണത്തിന്റെ ഗോപുരത്തിങ്കല് നിന്നപ്പോള് അബീമേലെക്കും കൂടെ ഉള്ള പടജ്ജനവും പതിയിരിപ്പില്നിന്നു എഴുന്നേറ്റു.

35. ఎబెదు కుమారుడైన గాలు బయలుదేరి పట్టణపు గవిని దగ్గర నిలిచినప్పుడు అబీమెలెకును అతనితో నున్న జనులును పొంచియుండుట చాలించి లేచిరి.

36. ഗാല് പടജ്ജനത്തെ കണ്ടപ്പോള്അതാ, പര്വ്വതങ്ങളുടെ മകളില്നിന്നു പടജ്ജനം ഇറങ്ങിവരുന്നു എന്നു സെബൂലിനോടു പറഞ്ഞു. സെബൂല് അവനോടുപര്വ്വതങ്ങളുടെ നിഴല് കണ്ടിട്ടു മനുഷ്യരെന്നു നിനക്കു തോന്നുകയാകുന്നു എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

36. గాలు ఆ జనులను చూచి జెబులుతో ఇదిగో జనులు కొండశిఖరముల మీదనుండి దిగివచ్చుచున్నారనగా, జెబులుకొండల చాయలు మనుష్యులను పోలి నీకు కనబడుచున్నవని అతనితో చెప్పెను.

37. ഗാല് പിന്നെയുംഅതാ, പടജ്ജനം ദേശമദ്ധ്യേ ഇറങ്ങിവരുന്നു; മറ്റൊരു കൂട്ടവും പ്രാശ്നികന്മാരുടെ കരുവേലകത്തിന്റെ സമീപത്തുകൂടി വരുന്നു എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

37. గాలుచూడుము, దేశపు ఎత్తయిన ప్థలము నుండి జనులు దిగి వచ్చుచున్నారు; ఒక దండు శకునగాండ్ల మస్తకివృక్షపు త్రోవను వచ్చు చున్నదనెను.

38. സെബൂല് അവനോടുനാം അബീമേലെക്കിനെ സേവിക്കേണ്ടതിന്നു അവന് ആരെന്നു പറഞ്ഞ നിന്റെ വായ് ഇപ്പോള് എവിടെ? ഇതു നീ പുച്ഛിച്ച പടജ്ജനം അല്ലയോ? ഇപ്പോള് പുറപ്പെട്ടു അവരോടു പെരുക എന്നു പറഞ്ഞു.

38. జెబులు అతనితో ఆహాహా మనము అతని సేవింపవలసినందుకు అబీమెలెకు ఎవడనిన నీమాట యేమాయెను? ఇది నీవు తృణీకరించిన జనము కాదా? పోయి వారితో యుద్ధము చేయుడనగా

39. അങ്ങനെ ഗാല് ശെഖേംപൌരന്മാരുമായി പുറപ്പെട്ടു അബീമേലക്കിനോടു പടവെട്ടി.

39. గాలు షెకెము యజమానుల ముందర బయలుదేరి అబీమెలెకుతో యుద్ధము చేసెను.

40. അബീമേലെക്കിന്റെ മുമ്പില് അവന് തോറ്റോടി; അവന് അവനെ പിന്തുടര്ന്നു പടിവാതില്വരെ അനേകംപേര് ഹതന്മാരായി വീണു.

40. అబీమెలెకు అతని తరుమగా అతడు అతని యెదుట నిలువలేక పారిపోయెను. అనేకులు గాయపడి పట్టణపు గవిని ప్రవేశించు చోట పడిరి.

41. അബീമേലെക് അരൂമയില് താമസിച്ചു; സെബൂല് ഗാലിനെയും സഹോദരന്മാരെയും ശെഖേമില് പാര്പ്പാന് സമ്മതിക്കാതെ അവിടെനിന്നു നീക്കിക്കളഞ്ഞു.

41. అప్పుడు అబీమెలెకు అరూమాలో దిగెను, గాలును అతని బంధువులును షెకెములో నివసింపకుండ జెబులు వారిని తోలివేసెను.

42. പിറ്റെന്നാള് ജനം വയലിലേക്കു പുറപ്പെട്ടു; അബീമേലെക്കിന്നു അതിനെക്കുറിച്ചു അറിവുകിട്ടി.

42. మరునాడు జనులు పొలములలోనికి బయలువెళ్లిరి.

43. അവന് പടജ്ജനത്തെ കൂട്ടി മൂന്നു കൂട്ടമായി ഭാഗിച്ചു വയലില് പതിയിരുന്നു; ജനം പട്ടണത്തില്നിന്നു പുറപ്പെട്ടുവരുന്നതു കണ്ടു അവരുടെ നേരെ ചെന്നു അവരെ സംഹരിച്ചു.

43. అది అబీమెలెకునకు తెలియబడగా అతడు తన జనులను తీసికొని మూడు తెగలుగా చేయగా వారు ఆ పొలములో మాటుగా ఉండిరి; అప్పుడతడు చూడగా జనులు పట్టణము నుండి బయలుదేరి వచ్చుచుండిరి గనుక అతడు వారిమీద పడి వారిని హతముచేసెను.

44. പിന്നെ അബീമേലെക്കും കൂടെയുള്ള കൂട്ടവും പാഞ്ഞുചെന്നു പട്ടണത്തിന്റെ പടിവാതില്ക്കല് നിന്നു; മറ്റെ കൂട്ടം രണ്ടും വയലിലുള്ള സകലജനത്തിന്റെയും നേരെ പാഞ്ഞുചെന്നു അവരെ സംഹരിച്ചു.

44. అబీమెలెకును అతనితో నున్న తెగలును ఇంక సాగి పట్టణపు గవిని ప్రదేశమునొద్ద నిలువగా రెండు తెగలు పరుగెత్తి పొలముల లోనున్న వారందరి మీదపడి వారిని హతముచేసిరి.

45. അബീമേലെക് അന്നു മുഴുവനും പട്ടണത്തോടു പൊരുതു പട്ടണം പിടിച്ചു അതിലെ ജനത്തെ കൊന്നു, പട്ടണത്തെ ഇടിച്ചുകളഞ്ഞു അതില് ഉപ്പു വിതറി.

45. ఆ దినమంతయు అబీమెలెకు ఆ పట్టణస్థులతో యుద్ధముచేసి పట్టణమును చుట్టుకొని అందులోనున్న జనులను చంపి పట్టణమును పడగొట్టి దాని స్థలమున ఉప్పు జల్లెను.
