Judges 1
1 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?
Og det skete efter Josvas Død, da adspurgte Israels Børn Herren og sagde: Hvo skal først drage op af os imod Kananiterne, til at stride imod dem?
2 And Jehovah said, Judah shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.
Og Herren sagde: Juda skal drage op; se, jeg har givet Landet i hans Haand.
3 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.
Da sagde Juda til Simeon sin Broder: Drag op med mig til min Lod, saa ville vi stride imod Kananiterne, saa vil jeg ogsaa gaa med dig til din Lod; saa gik Simeon med ham.
4 And Judah went up; and Jehovah delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand, and they smote them in Bezek, ten thousand men.
Og Juda drog op, og Herren gav Kananiterne og Feresiterne i deres Haand, og de sloge dem i Besek, ti Tusinde Mand.
5 And they found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and fought against him, and they smote the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
Og de fandt Adoni-Besek i Besek og strede imod ham, og de sloge Kananiterne og Feresiterne.
6 And Adoni-Bezek fled, and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
Men Adoni-Besek flyede, og de forfulgte ham; og de grebe ham og afhuggede hans Tommelfingre og hans Tommeltæer.
7 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.
Da sagde Adoni-Besek: Halvfjerdsindstyve Konger, hvis Tommelfingre og Tommeltæer vare afhugne, sankede op under mit Bord; som jeg har gjort, saa har Gud betalt mig; og de førte ham til Jerusalem, og der døde han.
8 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.
Og Judas Børn strede imod Jerusalem og indtoge den og sloge den med skarpe Sværd og satte Ild paa Staden.
9 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.
Derefter droge Judas Børn ned for at stride imod Kananiterne, som boede paa Bjerget og imod Sønden og i Lavlandet.
10 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.
Og Juda drog hen imod Kananiterne, som boede i Hebron, og Hebrons Navn var fordum Kirjath-Arba, og de sloge Sesai, Ahiman og Talmai.
11 And from there he went against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher.
Og han drog derfra mod Debirs Indbyggere; og Debirs Navn var fordum Kirjath-Sefer.
12 And Caleb said, He that smites Kirjath-sepher and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife.
Og Kaleb sagde: Hvo der slaar Kirjath-Sefer og indtager den, ham vil jeg give Aksa, min Datter, til Hustru.
13 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, took it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
Da indtog Othniel, en Søn af Kenas, Kalebs yngre Broder, den; og han gav ham Aksa, sin Datter, til Hustru.
14 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?
Og det skete, der hun kom, da tilskyndte hun ham til at begære af hendes Fader en Ager, og hun sprang ned af Asenet; da sagde Kaleb til hende: Hvad fattes dig?
15 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.
Og hun sagde til ham: Giv mig en Velsignelse, thi du har givet mig et Land mod Sønden, giv mig og Vandkilder; da gav Kaleb hende de øvre Vandkilder og de nedre Vandkilder.
16 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.
Og Keniterens, Mose Svigerfaders, Børn droge op fra Palmestaden med Judas Børn til Judas Ørk, som er Sønden for Arad, og gik hen og boede der hos Folket.
17 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.
Og Juda drog ud med sin Broder Simeon, og de sloge Kananiten, som boede i Zefat; og de bandlyste den, og man kaldte Stadens Navn Horma.
18 And Judah took Gazah and its border, and Ashkelon and its border, and Ekron and its border.
Og Juda indtog Gaza og dens Landemærke og Askion og dens Landemærke og Ekron og dens Landemærke.
19 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.
Og Herren var med Juda, saa han fordrev dem, som boede paa Bjerget; men han mægtede ikke at fordrive Indbyggerne i Dalen, fordi de havde Jernvogne.
20 And they gave to Caleb Hebron, as Moses had said; and he dispossessed from thence the three sons of Anak.
Og de gave Kaleb Hebron, som Mose havde sagt, og han fordrev derfra de tre Anaks Sønner.
21 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 And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Bethel; and Jehovah was with them.
Og Josefs Hus drog ogsaa op imod Bethel, og Herren var med dem.
23 And the house of Joseph sent to search out Bethel; now the name of the city before was Luz.
Og Josefs Hus bespejdede Bethel; men Stadens Navn var fordum Lus.
24 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.
Og de, som holdt Vagt, saa en Mand, som gik ud af Staden; og de sagde til ham: Vis os, kære, hvor vi kunne komme ind i Staden, da ville vi bevise dig Miskundhed.
25 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.
Og der han havde vist dem, hvor de kunde komme ind i Staden, da sloge de Staden med skarpe Sværd; men Manden og al hans Slægt lode de gaa.
26 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.
Da gik Manden til Hethiternes Land, og han byggede en Stad og kaldte dens Navn Lus, det er dens Navn indtil denne Dag.
27 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.
Og Manasse fordrev ikke Indbyggerne i Beth-Sean med dens tilhørende Stæder eller i Thaanak med dens tilhørende Stæder eller Indbyggerne i Dor med dens tilhørende Stæder eller Indbyggerne i Jibleam med dens tilhørende Stæder eller Indbyggerne i Megiddo med dens tilhørende Stæder; og Kananiten boede roligt i det samme Land.
28 And it came to pass when Israel became strong, that they made the Canaanites tributary; but they did not utterly dispossess them.

34 And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the hill-country, for they would not suffer them to come down to the valley.
Og Amoriterne trængte Dans Børn hen til Bjerget; thi de tilstedte dem ikke at komme ned i Dalen.
35 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.
Og Amoriterne boede roligt i Har-Heres, i Ajalon og i Saalbim; dog var Josefs Huses Haand dem svar; og de bleve skatskyldige.
