1 Yosiua da bogobeba: le, Isala: ili fi dunu ilia da Hina Godema amane adole ba: i, “Ninia fi habo da bisili Ga: ina: ne dunuma doagala: ma: bela: ?”
After Joshua died, the Israelites asked the Lord, “Which tribe from among us should go first and attack the Canaanites?”
2 Hina Gode da bu adole i, “Yuda fi da bisili doagala: musa: masunu da defea. Ilia da amo soge amoma ouligisu esaloma: ne, Na da hamomu.”
“Judah is to go first,” the Lord replied. “I have handed the land over to them.”

The men of Judah said to their relatives of the tribe of Simeon, “Come with us to the land that has been allotted to us, and fight together with us against the Canaanites. Then we'll do the same for you and your allotted land.” So the tribe of Simeon joined with them.
4 Amaiba: le, Simiane fi amola Yuda fi da gilisili gegemusa: asi. Hina Gode da ela fidibiba: le, ela da Ga: ina: ne dunu amola Belisaide dunu ili hasalasi. Ilia da Bisege moilaiga 10,000 dunu agoane fane legei dagoi.
The men of Judah attacked the Canaanites and Perizzites, and the Lord handed them over in defeat. They killed ten thousand of the enemy at the town of Bezek.
5 Amogai, ilia da hina bagade Adounaibisege ba: le, ema gegei.
There they confronted Adoni-bezek and fought with him, defeating the Canaanites and Perizzites.

Adoni-bezek ran away, but they chased after him and captured him, and then cut off his thumbs and big toes.

Adoni-bezek said, “I had seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off picking up left-overs from under my table. Now God has paid me back in the same way what I did to them.” They took him to Jerusalem where he died.

After this the men of Judah went to fight against the Canaanites living in the hill country, in the Negev, and in the foothills of the lowlands.

From there they went on to attack the people living in Debir (previously known as Kiriath Sepher).

Caleb announced, “I will give my daughter Acsah in marriage to whoever attacks and captures Kiriath Sepher.”
13 Ga: ilebe eya Gina: se amo ea mano Odeniele da amo moilai amo hasali dagoi. Amaiba: le, Ga: ilebe da idiwi A: igasa: , ea lama: ne i dagoi.
Othniel, son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, was the one captured it, so he gave him his daughter Acsah in marriage.

“Please give me a blessing,” she replied. “You gave me land that's like the desert, so please give me springs of water as well.” So Caleb gave her the upper and lower springs.

Then Judah joined Simeon and defeated the Canaanites living in Zephath. They completely destroyed the town, so they named it Hormah.
