Judges 1
1 After Joshua died, the Israelites asked the Lord, “Which tribe from among us should go first and attack the Canaanites?”
約書亞死後，以色列人求問耶和華說：「我們中間誰當首先上去攻擊迦南人，與他們爭戰？」
2 “Judah is to go first,” the Lord replied. “I have handed the land over to them.”
耶和華說：「猶大當先上去，我已將那地交在他手中。」
3 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.
猶大對他哥哥西緬說：「請你同我到拈鬮所得之地去，好與迦南人爭戰；以後我也同你到你拈鬮所得之地去。」於是西緬與他同去。
4 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.
猶大就上去；耶和華將迦南人和比利洗人交在他們手中。他們在比色擊殺了一萬人，
5 There they confronted Adoni-bezek and fought with him, defeating the Canaanites and Perizzites.
又在那裏遇見亞多尼‧比色，與他爭戰，殺敗迦南人和比利洗人。
6 Adoni-bezek ran away, but they chased after him and captured him, and then cut off his thumbs and big toes.
亞多尼‧比色逃跑；他們追趕，拿住他，砍斷他手腳的大拇指。
7 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.
亞多尼‧比色說：「從前有七十個王，手腳的大拇指都被我砍斷，在我桌子底下拾取零碎食物。現在上帝按着我所行的報應我了。」於是他們將亞多尼‧比色帶到耶路撒冷，他就死在那裏。
8 The men of Judah attacked Jerusalem and conquered it. They killed the inhabitants with the sword and burned the town down.
猶大人攻打耶路撒冷，將城攻取，用刀殺了城內的人，並且放火燒城。
9 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.
後來猶大人下去，與住山地、南地，和高原的迦南人爭戰。
10 They attacked the Canaanites who lived Hebron (previously known as Kiriath Arba) and defeated Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
猶大人去攻擊住希伯崙的迦南人，殺了示篩、亞希幔、撻買。希伯崙從前名叫基列‧亞巴。
11 From there they went on to attack the people living in Debir (previously known as Kiriath Sepher).
他們從那裏去攻擊底壁的居民；底壁從前名叫基列‧西弗。
12 Caleb announced, “I will give my daughter Acsah in marriage to whoever attacks and captures Kiriath Sepher.”
迦勒說：「誰能攻打基列‧西弗，將城奪取，我就把我女兒押撒給他為妻。」
13 Othniel, son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, was the one captured it, so he gave him his daughter Acsah in marriage.
迦勒兄弟基納斯的兒子俄陀聶奪取了那城，迦勒就把女兒押撒給他為妻。
14 When Acsah came to Othniel, she encouraged him to ask her father for a field. As she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What do you want?”
押撒過門的時候，勸丈夫向她父親求一塊田。押撒一下驢，迦勒問她說：「你要甚麼？」
15 “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.
她說：「求你賜福給我，你既將我安置在南地，求你也給我水泉。」迦勒就把上泉下泉賜給她。
16 The descendants of Moses' father-in-law, the Kenite, went with the people of Judah from the city of palms to the wilderness of Judah in the Negev near Arad where they settled among the people.
摩西的內兄是基尼人，他的子孫與猶大人一同離了棕樹城，往亞拉得以南的猶大曠野去，就住在民中。
17 Then Judah joined Simeon and defeated the Canaanites living in Zephath. They completely destroyed the town, so they named it Hormah.
猶大和他哥哥西緬同去，擊殺了住洗法的迦南人，將城盡行毀滅，那城的名便叫何珥瑪。
18 Judah also captured the towns of Gaza, Ashkelon, and Ekron, each with its surrounding territory.
猶大又取了迦薩和迦薩的四境，亞實基倫和亞實基倫的四境，以革倫和以革倫的四境。
19 The Lord was with Judah, and they took over the hill country, but they could not drive out the people living on the plain because they had iron chariots.
耶和華與猶大同在，猶大就趕出山地的居民，只是不能趕出平原的居民，因為他們有鐵車。
20 As Moses had stipulated, Hebron was given to Caleb, who drove out from it the descendants of three sons of Anak.
以色列人照摩西所說的，將希伯崙給了迦勒；迦勒就從那裏趕出亞衲族的三個族長。
21 However, Benjamin could not drive out the Jebusites, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so the Jebusites live among the people of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this very day.
便雅憫人沒有趕出住耶路撒冷的耶布斯人。耶布斯人仍在耶路撒冷與便雅憫人同住，直到今日。
22 The descendants of Joseph went and attacked the town of Bethel, and the Lord was with them.
約瑟家也上去攻打伯特利；耶和華與他們同在。
23 They sent spies to investigate Bethel, which was previously known as Luz.
約瑟家打發人去窺探伯特利（那城起先名叫路斯）。
24 The spies saw a man leaving the town and told him, “Please show us how to get into town, and we will treat you well.”
窺探的人看見一個人從城裏出來，就對他說：「求你將進城的路指示我們，我們必恩待你。」
25 The man showed them the way into the town, and they killed all the inhabitants except the man and his family, whom they let go.
那人將進城的路指示他們，他們就用刀擊殺了城中的居民，但將那人和他全家放去。
26 The man moved to the country of the Hittites, and built a town there and called it Luz, which is its name to this day.
那人往赫人之地去，築了一座城，起名叫路斯。那城到如今還叫這名。
27 However, Manasseh didn't drive out the people living in the towns of Beth Shan, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, Megiddo and their surrounding villages because the Canaanites insisted on living in the land.
瑪拿西沒有趕出伯‧善和屬伯‧善鄉村的居民，他納和屬他納鄉村的居民，多珥和屬多珥鄉村的居民，以伯蓮和屬以伯蓮鄉村的居民，米吉多和屬米吉多鄉村的居民；迦南人卻執意住在那些地方。
28 When the Israelites grew stronger, they made the Canaanites do forced labor, but they never completely drove them out.
及至以色列強盛了，就使迦南人做苦工，沒有把他們全然趕出。
29 Ephraim didn't drive out the Canaanites living in the town of Gezer, so the Canaanites went on living there among them.
以法蓮沒有趕出住基色的迦南人。於是迦南人仍住在基色，在以法蓮中間。
30 Zebulun didn't drive out the people living in the towns of Kitron and Nahalol, so the Canaanites went on living there among them. However, the Canaanites were made to do forced labor for the people of Zebulun.
西布倫沒有趕出基倫的居民和拿哈拉的居民。於是迦南人仍住在西布倫中間，成了服苦的人。
31 Asher didn't drive out the people living in the towns of Acco, Sidon, Ahlab, Achzib, Helbah, Aphik, and Rehob,
亞設沒有趕出亞柯和西頓的居民，亞黑拉和亞革悉的居民，黑巴、亞弗革與利合的居民。
32 so the people of Asher went on living there among the Canaanite inhabitants of the land because they hadn't driven them out.
於是，亞設因為沒有趕出那地的迦南人，就住在他們中間。
33 Naphtali didn't drive out the people living in the towns of Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath. So the people of Asher went on living there among the Canaanite inhabitants of the land because they hadn't driven them out. However, the people of Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath were made to do forced labor for the people of Naphtali.
拿弗他利沒有趕出伯‧示麥和伯‧亞納的居民，於是拿弗他利就住在那地的迦南人中間；然而伯‧示麥和伯‧亞納的居民成了服苦的人。
34 The Amorites pushed the people of Dan back into the hill country—they did not let them come down into the lowlands.
亞摩利人強逼但人住在山地，不容他們下到平原；
35 The Amorites insisted on remaining in Mount Heres, Aijalon, and Shaalbim, but when the tribes of Joseph grew stronger, the Amorites were made to do forced labor.
亞摩利人卻執意住在希烈山和亞雅崙並沙賓。然而約瑟家勝了他們，使他們成了服苦的人。
36 The border with the Amorites ran from Scorpion Pass through Sela and on up from there.
亞摩利人的境界，是從亞克拉濱坡，從西拉而上。
