Judges 1
1 NOW after the death of Joshua it came to pass, that the children of Israel asked the Lord, saying, Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites first, to fight against them?
Tukun misa lal Joshua, mwet Israel elos siyuk sin LEUM GOD, “Su inmasrlon sruf inge ac tufah fahsr meet in mweun lain mwet Canaan?”
2 And the Lord said, Judah shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.
Ac LEUM GOD El topuk, “Sruf lal Judah pa ac fahsr meet. Nga ac sang tuh in elos pa nununku acn we.”
3 And Judah said unto Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot. So Simeon went with him.
Mwet in sruf lal Judah elos fahk nu sin mwet in sruf lal Simeon, “Fahsru wi kut som nu in acn se ituku nu sesr, kut tukeni mweuni mwet Canaan, na kut fah wi kowos pac nu ke acn se itukot nu suwos.” Na sruf lal Simeon
4 And Judah went up; and the Lord delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand: and they slew of them in Bezek ten thousand men.
ac sruf lal Judah elos tukeni som mweun. LEUM GOD El sang kutangla nu selos fin mwet Canaan ac mwet Periz, ac oayapa elos kutangla singoul tausin mwet in acn Bezek.
5 And they found Adoni-bezek in Bezek: and they fought against him, and they slew the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
Elos konalak Adonibezek ingo ac mweunel.
6 But Adoni-bezek fled; and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
El kaingla, tusruktu elos ukwal nwe sruokilya ac pakela kuf lulap ke paol ac ke nial ah kewa.
7 And Adoni-bezek said, Threescore and ten kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered their meat under my table: as I have done, so God hath requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.
Ac Adonibezek el fahk, “Tokosra itngoul su kufla kuf lulap ke paolos ac nialos, elos tuh eis kutkut in mongo ye tepu luk. Na pa inge God El furokma nu sik ma nga tuh oru nu selos.” Ac elos usalla nu Jerusalem ac el misa we.
8 Now the children of Judah had fought against Jerusalem, and had taken it, and smitten it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
Mwet in sruf lal Judah elos mweuni acn Jerusalem ac sruokya. Elos uniya mwet we, ac esukak siti sac.
9 And afterward the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites, that dwelt in the mountain, and in the south, and in the valley.
Tukun ma inge elos som mweuni mwet Canaan su muta fineol uh ac pe eol uh ac acn mwesis nu eir.
10 And Judah went against the Canaanites that dwelt in Hebron: (now the name of Hebron before was Kirjath-arba: ) and they slew Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.
Elos fahsryak lain mwet Canaan su muta in siti se pangpang Hebron, su mwet meet ah pangon Kiriath Arba. Elos kutangla ota tolu inge: Sheshai, Ahiman, ac Talmai.
11 And from thence he went against the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjath-sepher:
Tukun ma inge, mwet in sruf lal Judah elos som ac mweuni siti Debir, su pangpang Kiriath Sepher in pacl sac.
12 And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjath-sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
Sie sin mwet ingan, su pangpang Caleb, el fahk, “Nga ac elsalang Achsah, acn se nutik, tuh elan payuk nu sin mukul se ma ac sruokya siti Kiriath Sepher.”
13 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
Othniel, wen natul Kenaz su tamulel fusr wial Caleb, el kutangla acn Debir, na Caleb el eisalang Achsah tuh elan mutan kial.
14 And it came to pass, when she came to him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted from off her ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wilt thou?
In len in marut laltal ah, Othniel el kwafe sel Achsah elan siyuk sin papa tumal ah ke sie ipin acn. Na ke Achsah el fani liki donkey natul, Caleb el siyuk sel lah oasr ma el lungse.
15 And she said unto him, Give me a blessing: for thou hast given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the nether springs.
Na Achsah el fahk, “Nga lungse kutu luf in kof. Acn ma kom ase luk meet ah acn na pao.” Na Caleb el sang lal unon in kof su oan lucng ac ten in acn Gulloth.
16 And the children of the Kenite, Moses’ father in law, went up out of the city of palm trees with the children of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which lieth in the south of Arad; and they went and dwelt among the people.
Mwet Ken, su sou lun papa tumun mutan kial Moses, elos wi mwet Judah som liki acn Jericho, siti in sak palm, nu yen mwesis nu eir, su oan sisken acn Arad in Judah. Ingo elos oakwuki muta inmasrlon mwet Amalek.
17 And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they slew the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. And the name of the city was called Hormah.
Mwet Judah elos wi mwet Simeon som mweuni mwet Canaan su muta in siti Zephath. Elos selngawiya siti sac, ac kunausla, ac sang inen acn sac Hormah.
18 Also Judah took Gaza with the coast thereof, and Askelon with the coast thereof, and Ekron with the coast thereof.
Mwet Judah elos sruokya acn Gaza ac Ashkelon ac Ekron wi acn nukewa ma oan raunela acn inge.
19 And the Lord was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
LEUM GOD El kasrelos mwet Judah, ac elos sruokya acn fineol uh, tusruktu elos koflana lusak mwet ma muta acn tupasrpasr, mweyen oasr chariot osra natulos.
20 And they gave Hebron unto Caleb, as Moses said: and he expelled thence the three sons of Anak.
In oana ma Moses el tuh sapkin ah, acn Hebron tuh itukyang lal Caleb su tuh lusak sou tolu natul Anak ah.
21 And the children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites that inhabited Jerusalem; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem unto this day.
Tusruktu mwet in sruf lal Benjamin elos tuh tiana lusak mwet Jebus ma muta Jerusalem, oru mwet Jebus inge srakna muta inmasrlon sruf lal Benjamin nwe misenge.
22 And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Beth-el: and the Lord was with them.
Sruf lal Ephraim ac sruf lal Manasseh elos som ac lain acn Bethel, ac LEUM GOD El welulos.
23 And the house of Joseph sent to descry Beth-el. (Now the name of the city before was Luz.)
Elos supwala mwet kalngeyuk nu Bethel (inen siti sacn meet pa Luz).
24 And the spies saw a man come forth out of the city, and they said unto him, Shew us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we will shew thee mercy.
Ac ke mwet kalngeyuk inge liye sie mwet illa liki siti uh, elos fahk nu sel, “Fahkma nu sesr lah kut ac utyak fuka nu in siti uh, na kut ac kulang nu sum.”
25 And when he shewed them the entrance into the city, they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let go the man and all his family.
Na mwet sac fahkang nu selos, na mwet Ephraim ac mwet Manasseh inge elos uniya mwet nukewa in siti sac sayen mwet se ma kasrelos ah ac sou lal ah.
26 And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called the name thereof Luz: which is the name thereof unto this day.
Tok mwet sac som nu in acn sin mwet Hit ac musaeak siti se we, ac pangon acn sac Luz. Srakna pangpang acn sac Luz nwe misenge.
27 Neither did Manasseh drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and her towns, nor Taanach and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns: but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
Sruf lal Manasseh tuh tiana lusak mwet ma muta in siti Beth Shan, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, Megiddo, ac acn ma oan apkuran nu in acn inge. Oru mwet Canaan elos mutana in facl sac.
28 And it came to pass, when Israel was strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute, and did not utterly drive them out.
Ke mwet Israel elos kui, na elos sang orekma na upa nu sin mwet Canaan inge, tusruktu elos tiana luselosla.
29 Neither did Ephraim drive out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt in Gezer among them.
Sruf lal Ephraim elos tiana lusak mwet Canaan su muta in siti Gezer, oru mwet inge elos mutana inmasrlolos.
30 Neither did Zebulun drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites dwelt among them, and became tributaries.
Sruf lal Zebulun tuh tiana lusak mwet muta in siti Kitron ac Nahalal, oru mwet Canaan inge elos srak pacna mutana inmasrlolos, tusruktu akkohsyeyuk elos in orekma nu sin mwet Zebulun.
31 Neither did Asher drive out the inhabitants of Accho, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob:
Sruf lal Asher tuh tiana lusla mwet muta in siti Acco, Sidon, Ahlab, Achzib, Helbah, Aphek, ac Rehob.
32 But the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: for they did not drive them out.
Mwet ke sruf lal Asher elos tuh wi na mwet Canaan inge muta, ke sripen elos tiana luselosla.
33 Neither did Naphtali drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth-anath; but he dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and of Beth-anath became tributaries unto them.
Sruf lal Naphtali tiana lusla mwet ma muta in siti Beth Shemesh ac Bethanath. Mwet Naphtali inge wi na mwet Canaan inge muta, tusruktu elos akkohsyelos in orekma nu selos.
34 And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the mountain: for they would not suffer them to come down to the valley:
Mwet Amor elos lusak mwet in sruf lal Dan nu fineol uh, ac tia lela elos in tuku nu yen tupasrpasr uh.
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 tributaries.
Mwet Amor elos mutana in Aijalon, Shaalbim, ac Fineol Heres, tusruktu sruf lal Ephraim ac Manasseh elos leum faclos ac akkohsyelos in orekma nu selos.
36 And the coast of the Amorites was from the going up to Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.
Masrol ke acn Edom ac Ephraim mutawauk ke acn Sela fahsryak nu epang ac sasla ke Innek In Utyak Nu Akrabbim.
