< Judges 1 >

1 After the death of Joshua, the children of Israel asked of the LORD, saying, “Who should go up for us first against the Canaanites, to fight against them?”
Ie fa nivilasy t’Iehosoa, le nihalaly am’ Iehovà o ana’ Isra­eleo ami’ty hoe: Ia ty hionjoñe valoha’e mb’amo nte-Khanàneo ho anay, hialy?
2 The LORD said, “Judah shall go up. Behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.”
Le hoe t’Iehovà, Iehodà ty hionjomb’eo fa natoloko am-pità’e i taney.
3 Judah said to Simeon his brother, “Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with you into your lot.” So Simeon went with him.
Le hoe t’Iehoda amy Simone rahalahi’e, Mindreza amako mb’amy anjarakoy hialy amo nte-Khanàneo; le hindre ama’o ka iraho mb’amy anjara’oy. Aa le nindre lia ama’e t’i Simone.
4 Judah went up, and the LORD delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand. They struck ten thousand men in Bezek.
Nionjom-beo t’Iehoda; naho nasese’ Iehovà am-pità’ iareo o nte-Khanàneo naho o nte-Perizeo, vaho binaibai’ iereo e Bezeke ty lahilahy rai-ale.
5 They found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and they fought against him. They struck the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
Nizoe’ iareo e Bezek’ ao t’i Adonibezeke, le nialy ama’e, vaho zinama’ iareo t’i nte-Khanàne naho t’i nte-Perize.
6 But Adoni-Bezek fled. They pursued him, caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
Fe nipoliotse añe t’i Adonibezeke, le hinorida’ iareo naho tsinepa’iareo vaho fonga kinitsi’ iareo ty tondro-beim-pità’e naho tondrobeim-pandia’e.
7 Adoni-Bezek said, “Seventy kings, having their thumbs and their big toes cut off, scavenged under my table. As I have done, so God has done to me.” They brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
Le hoe t’i Adonibezeke, Nitsindrok’ ambanen-datàbako ao ty mpanjaka fitompolo kinitsin-tondrobeim-pitàñe naho tondrobeim-pandia, aa le nafoten’ Añahare amako i nanoekoy. Aa le napo’ iareo e Ierosa­laime ao re, vaho ao ty nihomaha’e.
8 The children of Judah fought against Jerusalem, took it, struck it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
Toe fa nialy am’ Ierosalaime o ana’ Iehodao, le fa tinava’ iareo naho linafa’ iareo an-dela-pibara, vaho namiañe afo amy rovay.
9 After that, the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites who lived in the hill country, and in the South, and in the lowland.
Ie amy zay, nizotso hialy amo nte-Khanàne mpimoneñe am-bohibohitse ao naho Atimo ao vaho an-tane petrak’ ao o ana’ Iehodao.
10 Judah went against the Canaanites who lived in Hebron. (The name of Hebron before that was Kiriath Arba.) They struck Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
Naname o nte-Khanàne nimoneñe e Kebroneo t’Iehoda (toe natao Kiriate’arba ty Kebrone taolo), le vinono’ iareo t’i Sesay, naho i Akimane vaho i Talmaý.
11 From there he went against the inhabitants of Debir. (The name of Debir before that was Kiriath Sepher.)
Boak’ao re nañoridañe o mpimone’ i Debireo (toe natao Kiriate-sefere ty Debire taolo).
12 Caleb said, “I will give Achsah my daughter as wife to the man who strikes Kiriath Sepher, and takes it.”
Le hoe t’i Kalebe, Ze mandafa i Kiriate-sefere vaho mandrambe aze, ty hitolorako i Aksae anak’ ampelako ho vali’e.
13 Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, took it, so he gave him Achsah his daughter as his wife.
I Otniele, ana’i Kenaze zai’ i Kalebe ty nandrambe aze; vaho natolo’e ama’e t’i Aksae anak’ampela’e ho tañanjomba’e.
14 When she came, she got him to ask her father for a field. She got off her donkey; and Caleb said to her, “What would you like?”
Ie amy zao, naho nimb’ama’e, le nosihe’e hihalaly tane aman-drae’e hambolea’e. Aa ie nizotso amy borìke’ey, le hoe ty asa’ i Kalebe ama’e, Ino o paia’oo?
15 She said to him, “Give me a blessing; because you have set me in the land of the South, give me also springs of water.” Then Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
Le hoe re tama’e: Fitsezo rano iraho fa tane maike ty natolo’o ahy; ehe toloro rano manganahana ka. Aa le natolo’ i Kalebe aze o manganahana amboneo naho o manganahana ambaneo.
16 The children of the Kenite, Moses’ brother-in-law, went 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 lived with the people.
Nionjoñe boak’ an-drovan-tsatrañe ao o ana’ i Keny, rafoza’ i Mosèo, mindre amo ana’ Iehodao, mb’ am-patram-bei’ Iehoda mb’eo, atimo’ i Arade ey vaho nindre nimoneñe am’ ondatio.
17 Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they struck the Canaanites who inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. The name of the city was called Hormah.
Le nindre aman-joke’e Simone t’Iehoda, le linafa’ iareo o nte-Khanàne nimoneñe e Tsefate ao le vata’e narotsa’e. Natao Kormà ty añara’ i rovay.
18 Also Judah took Gaza with its border, and Ashkelon with its border, and Ekron with its border.
Rinambe’ Iehoda ka t’i Azà rekets’ i tane’ey naho i Aske­lone rekets’ i tane’ey, vaho i Ekrone rekets’ i tane’ey.
19 The LORD was with Judah, and drove out the inhabitants of the hill country; for he could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
Nindre am’ Iehoda t’Iehovà, nandroake o am-bohibohitseo, fe tsy nahafaniotse o an-tane petrakeo ty amo saretem-bi’ iareoo.
20 They gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses had said, and he drove the three sons of Anak out of there.
Le natolo’e amy Kalebe ty Kebrone ty amy saontsi’ i Mosèy; vaho rinoa’e boak’ao i ana-dahi’ i Anake telo rey.
21 The children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites who inhabited Jerusalem, but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.
Tsy nahafandroake o nte-Iebosý nimoneñe e Ierosalaimeo t’i Beniamine; le mitrao-pimoneñe amo ana’ i Beniamineo pake henane o nte Iebosìo.
22 The house of Joseph also went up against Bethel, and the LORD was with them.
Aa naho i anjomba’ Iosefey, naname i Betele ka iereo vaho nolora’ Iehovà.
23 The house of Joseph sent to spy out Bethel. (The name of the city before that was Luz.)
Nirahe’ i anjomba’ Iosefey ty hisarisary i Betele, i nitokaveñe ty hoe Loze taoloy.
24 The watchers saw a man come out of the city, and they said to him, “Please show us the entrance into the city, and we will deal kindly with you.”
Nahaoniñe ondaty niakatse i rovay i mpisary rey, le hoe iereo tama’e, Atorò anay ty lalam-pimoahañe amo rovao, le hitretreza’ay.
25 He showed them the entrance into the city, and they struck the city with the edge of the sword; but they let the man and all his family go.
Aa ie natoro’e ty fizilihañe amy rovay, le linafa’ iareo am-pibara i rovay, fe napo’ iareo hañavelo mb’eo indatiy reketse ty hasavereña’e iaby.
26 The man went into the land of the Hittites, built a city, and called its name Luz, which is its name to this day.
Nomb’ an-tane’ o nte Kiteo indatiy le namboatse rova vaho natao’e Loze ty añara’e, le mbe ie henaneo.
27 Manasseh did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth Shean and its towns, nor Taanach and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
Fe tsy nahafaniotse o mpimone i Betseane naho o tanà’eo ndra i Tànake naho o tanà’eo, ndra o mpimone’ i Dore naho o tanà’eo, ndra o mpimone’ Ibleame naho o tanà’eo, ndra i Megido naho o tanà’eo t’i Menasè; amy te nifahatse amy taney o nte-Khanàne nimoneñ’ aoo.
28 When Israel had grown strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and did not utterly drive them out.
Ie añe naho naozatse t’Israele le nampandoa’e haba o nte-Khanàneo fa tsy fonga niroaheñe.
29 Ephraim did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer, but the Canaanites lived in Gezer among them.
Tsy nahafaniotse o nte-Khanàne nimoneñe e Gezereo ka t’i Efraime, fe nitrao-pimoneñe am’ iereo e Gezere ao o nte-Khanàneo.
30 Zebulun did not drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites lived among them, and became subject to forced labor.
Tsy niroahe’ i Zebolone ka o mpimone’ i Kitroneo, ndra o mpi­mone’ i Nahaloleo, le nitrao-pimoneñe am’ iereo o nte-Khanàneo vaho nampandoàñe haba.
31 Asher did not drive out the inhabitants of Acco, nor the inhabitants of Sidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob;
Tsy niroahe’ i Asere ka o mpimone’ i Akòo ndra o mpimone’ i Tsidoneo, ndra o Aklabeo, ndra i Kel­bà, ndra i Afike, ndra i Re­kobe;
32 but the Asherites lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, for they did not drive them out.
te mone nitrao-pimoneñe amo nte-Khanàne mpimoneñe amy taneio t’i Asere; fa tsy nilefe’e ty naniotse iareo.
33 Naphtali did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth Anath; but he lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land. Nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh and of Beth Anath became subject to forced labor.
Tsy niroahe’ i Naftalý ka o mpimone’ i Bete’semeseo, ndra o mpimone’ i Bet’anateo; te mone nitrao-pimoneñe amo nte-Khanàne mpimoneñe amy taneio; aa le nampandoa’e haba o mpi­mone’ i Bete-semese naho Bet’anateo.
34 The Amorites forced the children of Dan into the hill country, for they would not allow them to come down to the valley;
Nazi’ o nte-Amoreo mb’ am-bohibohitse ao o ana’ i Daneo, le tsy nenga’ iareo hizotso mb’am-bava­tane mb’eo.
35 but the Amorites would dwell in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim. Yet the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, so that they became subject to forced labor.
Nimanea’ o nte-Amoreo ty himoneñe am-bohi-Karese e Ai’ialone naho e Saal­bime ao; fe nahagioke ty fità’ Iosefe vaho nanoe’e mpandoa haba.
36 The border of the Amorites was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.
Nifototse amy fitroara’ i Akrabimey ty efe-tane’ o nte-Amoreo, boak’ amy vatoy mañambone.
