What one are you using? Contact it's support site. Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.

Firefox doesn't come with a translator. That is an add-on. What one are you using? Contact it's support site.

You can check the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) for error messages.

If that extension is no longer working, you probably need to find another one. There are also search plugins that can translate. http://mycroftproject.com/search-engines.html?name=translate
