< Sudcov 1 >

1 Stalo se pak po smrti Jozue, otázali se synové Izraelští Hospodina, řkouce: Kdo z nás potáhne proti Kananejskému napřed, aby bojoval s ním?
After Joshua died, the Israeli people asked Yahweh, “Which [of our tribes] should attack the Canaan people-group first?”
2 Jimž řekl Hospodin: Juda nechť táhne, aj, dal jsem tu zemi v ruku jeho.
Yahweh replied, “I will enable the tribe of Judah to defeat [IDM] the Canaan people-group.”
3 (Řekl pak byl Juda Simeonovi bratru svému: Potáhni se mnou k dobývání losu mého, abychom bojovali proti Kananejskému, a já také potáhnu s tebou k dobývání losu tvého. I táhl s ním Simeon.
The men of Judah went to their fellow Israelis, [the men] from the tribe of Simeon, and said to them, “Come and help us to fight the Canaan people-group [in order that we can take from them] the land [that Yahweh] allotted to us. If you do that, we will go with you [and help you] conquer the people in the land [that Yahweh promised to give to] you.” So the men from the tribe of Simeon went with the men of the tribe of Judah.
4 Tedy vytáhl Juda, i dal Hospodin Kananejského a Ferezejského v ruce jejich, a porazili z nich v Bezeku deset tisíc mužů.
When the men of those two tribes attacked, Yahweh enabled them to defeat 10,000 men of the Canaan people-group and the Periz people-group [DOU] at Bezek [city].
5 Nebo nalezše Adonibezeka v Bezeku, bojovali proti němu, a porazili Kananejského i Ferezejského.
During the battle they found Adoni-Bezek, the leader of the city,
6 Když pak utíkal Adonibezek, honili ho, a chytivše jej, zutínali mu palce u rukou i noh.
but he [tried to] run away. The Israelis pursued him and caught him. Then they cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
7 Tedy řekl Adonibezek: Sedmdesáte králů s uťatými palci u rukou i noh svých sbírali drobty pod stolem mým; jakž jsem činil, tak odplatil mi Bůh. I přivedli jej do Jeruzaléma, a tam umřel.
Adoni-Bezek said, “[My army captured] 70 kings. We cut off their thumbs and big toes. After that, [we forced] those kings to eat scraps that fell from our table. Now God has (paid me back for/done to me like) [what we did to them].” Then the men of Judah took Adoni-Bezek to Jerusalem, and he died there.
8 Nebo byli vybojovali synové Juda Jeruzalém, a vzavše jej, zbili obyvatele jeho ostrostí meče a město vypálili.
The army of Judah fought against the men of Jerusalem, and they captured the city. With their swords they killed [the people who lived there] and they burned [the houses in] the city.
9 Potom také vytáhli synové Judovi, aby bojovali proti Kananejskému, bydlícímu na horách při straně polední i na rovinách.
Later, the men of Judah went down to fight the Canaan people-group who lived in the hilly area, in the desert to the south, and in the foothills [to the west].
10 Nebo byl vytáhl Juda proti Kananejskému, kterýž bydlil v Hebronu, (jméno pak Hebronu prvé bylo Kariatarbe, ) a pobil Sesaie, a Achimana, a Tolmaie.
The men of Judah also went to fight against the Canaan people-group who lived in Hebron [city], which at that time was named Kiriath-Arba. They defeated [the armies of kings] Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
11 A odtud byl táhl na obyvatele Dabir, (jméno pak Dabir prvé bylo Kariatsefer).
Then they left that area and went to fight against the people living in Debir [city], which was previously named Kiriath-Sepher.
12 Kdežto řekl Kálef: Kdo by dobyl Kariatsefer a vzal by je, dám jemu Axu dceru svou za manželku.
[Before they attacked the city], Caleb said to them, “If one of you attacks and captures Kiriath-Sepher, I will allow him to marry my daughter.”
13 Tedy dobyl ho Otoniel, syn Cenezův, bratra Kálefova mladšího, i dal jemu Axu dceru svou za manželku.
Othniel, who was the son of Caleb’s younger brother Kenaz, captured the city. So Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to him, to become his wife.
14 Stalo se pak, že když přišla k němu, ponukla ho, aby prosil otce jejího za pole; i ssedla s osla. A řekl jí Kálef: Cožť jest?
When Acsah married Othniel, she told him to ask her father to give him a field. [But she decided to ask him herself. She rode to Caleb’s house on her donkey], and when she got off the donkey, Caleb [could see that something was troubling her. So he] asked her, “What do you want?”
15 A ona odpověděla: Dej mi dar; poněvadžs mi dal zemi suchou, dej mi také studnice vod. I dal jí Kálef studnice v horních i dolních končinách.
She replied, “I want you to do a favor for me. You have given me some land in the southern desert, [but it is very dry there]. So please also give me some [land that has] springs of water.” So Caleb gave her some land on higher ground that had a spring, and some land on lower ground that also had a spring.
16 Synové také Cinejského, tchána Mojžíšova, odebrali se z města palmového s syny Juda na poušť Judovu, jenž jest k straně polední městu Arad; a odšedše, bydlili s lidem tím.
The people of the Ken people-group who were descendants of Moses’ father-in-law left Jericho, which was called ‘The City of Palm Trees’. They went with some of the men of Judah to live with them in the southern desert area, near Arad [city].
17 Potom táhl Juda s Simeonem, bratrem svým, a porazili Kananejské přebývající v Sefat, a zkazili je. I nazváno jest jméno města toho Horma.
The men of Judah and their fellow Israelis from the tribe of Simeon defeated the people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Zephath [city]. They completely destroyed the city and gave it a new name, Hormah, [which means ‘complete destruction’].
18 Dobyl také Juda Gázy a pomezí jeho, i Aškalonu s pomezím jeho, též Akaronu a pomezí jeho.
The men of Judah also captured Gaza, Ashkelon, and Ekron [cities] and all the land that is near those cities.
19 Nebo byl Hospodin s Judou, a vyhnal obyvatele hor, ale nevyhnal obyvatelů údolí, proto že vozy železné měli.
Yahweh helped the men of Judah to capture the hilly area, but they could not force the people who were living in the plains to leave, because [those people had better weapons—] had iron chariots.
20 I dali Kálefovi Hebron, jakož byl mluvil Mojžíš, a vyhnal odtud tři syny Enakovy.
Hebron [city] was given to Caleb because Moses had promised him that he could have that city. And Caleb forced the three clans descended from Anak to leave that area.
21 Jebuzejského pak, bydlícího v Jeruzalémě, nevyhnali synové Beniamin; protož bydlil Jebuzejský v Jeruzalémě s syny Beniamin až do tohoto dne.
But the people of the tribe of Benjamin could not force the people of the Jebus people-group to leave Jerusalem. So, since that time the people of the Jebus people-group have lived in Jerusalem with the people of the tribe of Benjamin.
22 Vytáhla také i čeled Jozefova do Bethel, a Hospodin byl s nimi.
The men of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh went to fight against [the men of] Bethel [city], and Yahweh helped them.
23 Nebo shlédla čeled Jozefova Bethel, kteréhožto města jméno prvé bylo Lůza.
They sent some spies to [find out everything that they could find out about] Bethel, which was previously called Luz.
24 Uzřevše pak ti špehéři muže vycházejícího z města, řekli jemu: Medle ukaž nám, kudy bychom mohli vjíti do města, a učinímeť milost.
The spies saw a man who was coming out of the city. They said to him, “If you show us a way to get into the city, we will be kind to you [and we will not kill you].”
25 Kterýžto ukázal jim, kudy by mohli vjíti do města; i vyhubili to město mečem, muže pak toho se vší čeledí jeho propustili.
So the man showed them a way to enter the city. The men of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh entered the city and killed all the people with their swords, but they did not kill the man [who showed them how to get into the city], and they did not kill his family.
26 I šel muž ten do země Hetejských, kdež vystavěl město, a nazval jméno jeho Lůza; to jest jméno jeho až do tohoto dne.
That man went to the area where the descendants of Heth lived, and built a city. He named the city Luz, and that is still the name of that city.
27 Manasses také nevyhnal obyvatelů Betsan a městeček jeho, ani Tanach a městeček jeho, ani obyvatelů Dor a Jibleam, a Mageddo a městeček jejich; i počal Kananejský svobodně bydliti v zemi té.
There were people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Beth-Shan, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, and Megiddo [cities] and in the surrounding villages. [The men of] the tribe of Manasseh did not force those people to leave those towns, because the people of the Canaan people-group were determined to stay there.
28 Když se pak zsilil Izrael, uvedl Kananejského pod plat, a maje jej vyhnati, nevyhnal.
Later, the Israelis became (stronger/more numerous), and they forced the people of the Canaan people-group to work for them [as their slaves], but they did not force all the people of the Canaan people-group to leave their land.
29 Efraim také nevyhnal Kananejského bydlícího v Gázer, protož bydlil Kananejský u prostřed něho v Gázer.
[The men of] the tribe of Ephraim did not force the people of the Canaan people-group to leave Gezer [city]. So the people of the Canaan people-group continued to live with the people of the tribe of Ephraim.
30 Zabulon též nevyhnal obyvatelů Cetron, a obyvatelů Naalol, protož bydlil Kananejský u prostřed něho, a dával jemu plat.
[The men of] the tribe of Zebulun did nor compel the people of the Canaan people-group who were living in Kitron and Nahalol [cities] to leave. They stayed there and lived among the people of the tribe of Zebulun, but the people of Zebulun forced them to work for them as their slaves.
31 Asser také nevyhnal obyvatelů Acho a obyvatelů Sidonu, ani Ahalab, ani Achzib, ani Helba, ani Afek, ani Rohob.
[The men of] the tribe of Asher did not force the people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Acco, Sidon, Ahlab, Aczib, Helbah, Aphek and Rehob [cities] to leave.
32 I bydlil Asser mezi Kananejskými obyvateli země té, nebo nevyhnal jich.
So the people of the tribe of Asher lived among them.
33 Též Neftalím nevyhnal obyvatelů Betsemes, ani obyvatelů Betanat, protož bydlil mezi Kananajeskými přebývajícími v zemi té; a však obyvatelé Betsemes a Betanat dávali jim plat.
[The men of] the tribe of Naphtali did not compel the people who lived in Beth-Shemesh and Beth-Anath [cities] to leave, so the people in those two cities continued to live there, but the people of the Canaan people-group were forced to work as the slaves of the people of the tribe of Naphtali.
34 Ssužovali pak Amorejští syny Dan na horách, tak že nedali jim scházeti do údolí.
The people of the Amor people-group forced the people of the tribe of Dan to live in the hills. They did not allow them to come down [and live] on the plain.
35 Nebo počal Amorejský svobodně bydliti na hoře Heres, v Aialon a v Salbim, ale když se zsilila ruka čeledi Jozefovy, uvedeni jsou pod plat.
The people of the Amor people-group were determined to stay in Heres Mountain and in Aijalon and Shaalbim [cities]. But when the Israelis became (stronger/more numerous), they forced the people of the Amor people-group to work as their slaves.
36 Pomezí pak Amorejského bylo od začátku hor Akrabim, od skály jejich i výše.
The land where the Amor people-group lived extended from Scorpion Pass [toward the west] beyond Sela [town], up into the hilly area.
