士師記 1
1 大與西默盎出征 若蘇厄死後，以色列子民詢問上主說：「我們中誰應首先上去供攻打客納罕人﹖」
And it came to pass after the death of Joshua that the children of Israel asked Jehovah, saying, Which of us shall go up against the Canaanites first, to fight against them?
2 上主說﹕「猶大先上去。看，我已將那地交在他手中。」
And Jehovah said, Judah shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.
3 猶大遂對自己的兄弟西默盎說﹕「請你同我到我拈龜所得的地方去，與客納罕人作戰，日後我也同你到你拈龜所得的地方去。」西默盎就同他去了。
And Judah said to Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my lot, and let us fight against the Canaanites, and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot; and Simeon went with him.
4 猶大上去，上主把客納罕人和培黎齊人交在他們手中，他們在貝則克擊殺了一萬人。
And Judah went up; and Jehovah delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand, and they smote them in Bezek, ten thousand men.
5 他們在貝則克又遇上了阿多尼貝則克，與他交戰，擊敗了客納罕人和培黎齊人。
And they found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and fought against him, and they smote the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
6 阿多尼貝則克逃走，他們在後面追趕，捉住他，割去了他手腳的姆指。
And Adoni-Bezek fled, and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
7 阿多尼貝則克說：「七十位王子被割去了手腳的姆指，在我桌下拾取零碎食物；天主照我所行的報復了我。」他們將他帶到耶路撒冷，他就死在那裏。
And Adoni-Bezek said, Seventy kings, with their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gleaned under my table: as I have done, so God has requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.
8 猶大子孫攻打了耶路撒冷，將城佔領，用利劍殺了城中的居民，放火燒了城。
And the children of Judah fought against Jerusalem, and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
9 此後，猶大子孫下去與住在山地、南方和平原的客納罕人作戰。
And afterwards the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites, that dwelt in the hill-country, and in the south, and in the lowland.
10 猶大又去攻打住在赫貝龍的客納罕人，─郝貝龍以前名叫克黎雅特阿爾巴─擊敗了舍瑟、阿希曼和塔耳買。
And Judah went against the Canaanites that dwelt in Hebron — the name of Hebron before was Kirjath-Arba; and they slew Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai.
11 他們從那裏又去攻打住在德彼爾的居民，─德彼爾以前名叫克黎雅特色費爾。
And from there he went against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher.
12 那時加肋布說：「誰能攻打克黎雅特色費爾，將城拿下，我就將我的女兒阿革撒嫁給他為妻。」
And Caleb said, He that smites Kirjath-sepher and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife.
13 加肋布的弟弟刻納次的兒子敖特尼耳奪取了那城，加肋布遂把自己的女兒阿革撒嫁給他為妻。
And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, took it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
14 當她過門的時候，丈夫勸她向父親要一塊田地，她一下驢，加肋布便問她說：「你要什麼﹖」
And it came to pass as she came, that she urged him to ask of her father the field; and she sprang down from the ass. And Caleb said to her, What wouldest thou?
15 她答說：「請你給我一件禮物，因為你既把我安置於南方旱地，求你也將水泉給我! 」加肋布遂把上泉和下泉給了她。
And she said to him, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a southern land; give me also springs of water. And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
16 梅瑟的姻親刻尼的子孫從棕樹城上來，同猶大子孫一同往阿辣得南方的猶大曠野去，與那裏的百姓住在一起。
And the children of the Kenite, Moses' father-in-law, had gone up out of the city of palm-trees with the children of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which is in the south of Arad; and they went and dwelt with the people.
17 以後猶大和他兄弟西默盎又起程，擊敗了住在責法特的客納罕人，將城完全毀滅，故稱這城為曷爾瑪。
And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they slew the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it; and they called the name of the city Hormah.
18 猶大卻未能奪取迦薩及其四境；阿布刻隆及其四境；厄刻龍及其四境。
And Judah took Gazah and its border, and Ashkelon and its border, and Ekron and its border.
19 上主與猶大同在，因此，他佔據了山地，但不能趕走平原的居民，因為他們有鐵甲車。
And Jehovah was with Judah; and he took possession of the hill-country, for he did not dispossess the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
20 按照梅瑟吩咐的，他們把赫貝龍給了加肋布，因為他由那裏鏟除了阿納克的三支後裔。其餘各支派佔領基業
And they gave to Caleb Hebron, as Moses had said; and he dispossessed from thence the three sons of Anak.
21 本雅明子孫沒有逐出住在耶路撒冷的耶步斯人，因此耶步斯人與本雅明子孫，直到今日同住在耶路撒冷。
And the children of Benjamin did not dispossess the Jebusites, the inhabitants of Jerusalem; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.
22 若瑟家族也上去攻打貝特耳，上主與他們同在。
And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Bethel; and Jehovah was with them.
23 當若瑟家族差人去偵探貝特耳時，─這城昔名叫路次，─
And the house of Joseph sent to search out Bethel; now the name of the city before was Luz.
24 偵探看見一個人從城裏出來，就向他說：「請指給我們進城的路，我們必要恩待你。」
And the guards saw a man come forth out of the city, and said unto him, Shew us, we pray thee, how [we] may enter into the city, and we will shew thee kindness.
25 那人就指給了他們進城的路；他們用刀屠殺了全城的百姓，但把那人和他全家放走了。
And he shewed them how to enter into the city. And they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let go the man and all his family.
26 那人到了赫特人的地方，建了一座城，起名叫路次，直到今日仍叫此名。
And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called its name Luz, which is its name to this day.
27 默納協沒有趕走貝特商及其屬境的居民，塔納客及其屬境的居民，多爾及其屬境的居民，依貝肋罕及其屬境的居民，默基多及其屬境的居民，客納罕人依舊住在這些地方。
And Manasseh did not dispossess Beth-shean and its dependent villages, nor Taanach and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its dependent villages, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its dependent villages; and the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
28 等到以色列強盛了，只能使客納罕人服役，終未能把他們全部逐出。
And it came to pass when Israel became strong, that they made the Canaanites tributary; but they did not utterly dispossess them.
29 厄弗辣因也沒有逐出住在革則爾的客納罕人，所以客納罕人仍在革則爾住在他們中間。
And Ephraim did not dispossess the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt among them in Gezer.
30 則步隆也沒有逐出克特龍的居民及納哈羅耳的居民，客納罕人仍住在他們中間，但應為他們服役。
Zebulun did not dispossess the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites dwelt among them, and became tributaries.
31 阿協爾也沒有把阿苛、漆冬、阿赫拉布、阿革齊布、赫耳巴、阿費克和勒曷布的居民逐出，
Asher did not dispossess the inhabitants of Accho, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, nor Ahlab, nor Achzib, nor Helbah, nor Aphik, nor Rehob;
32 所以阿協爾人住在當地的居民客納罕人中間，因為他們沒有把他們逐出去。
and the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land; for they did not dispossess them.
33 納裴塔里也沒有把貝特舍默士的居民和貝特阿納特的居民逐出，於是他們就住在當地的居民客納罕人中間；但是貝特舍默士和貝特阿納特的居民應為他們服役。
Naphtali did not dispossess the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth-anath; and he dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, but the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and of Beth-anath became tributaries to them.
34 阿摩黎人強迫丹的子孫住在山上，不讓他們下到平原。
And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the hill-country, for they would not suffer them to come down to the valley.
35 阿摩黎人依舊住在哈爾赫勒斯、阿雅隆和沙耳賓；但在若瑟家族勢力強大之後，他們就成了服役的人。
And the Amorites would dwell on mount Heres, in Ajalon and in Shaalbim; but the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, and they became tributaries.
36 厄東人的境界，是從阿刻辣賓山坡直到色拉以上地帶。
And the border of the Amorites was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from the rock, and upwards.
