Judges 1
1 And it came to pass, after the death of Joshua, that the sons of Israel asked of Yahweh, saying, —Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites, first, to make war upon them?
Ary rehefa maty Josoa, dia nanontany tamin’ i Jehovah ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Iza no hiakatra voalohany hiady amin’ ny Kananita ho anay?
2 And Yahweh said—Judah, shall go, —lo! I have delivered the land into his power.
Dia hoy Jehovah: Joda no hiakatra; indro, efa nanolotra ny tany ho eo an-tànany Aho.
3 Then said Judah, unto Simeon his brother—Come up with me into the territory allotted me, and let us make war on the Canaanites, then will, I also, go with thee, into thy territory. So Simeon went with him.
Ary hoy Joda tamin’ i Simeona rahalahiny: Andeha hiara-miakatra amiko ianao ho any amin’ ny lovako, ka aoka isika hiady amin’ ny Kananita; ary izaho kosa dia handeha hiaraka aminao ho any amin’ ny lovanao. Ary Simeona dia nandeha niaraka taminy.
4 And Judah went up, and Yahweh delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand, —and they smote them in Bezek, ten thousand men.
Dia niakatra Joda, ary natolotr’ i Jehovah teo an-tànany ny Kananita sy ny Perizita, ka nahafaty iray alin-dahy tany Bezeka izy.
5 And they found Adoni-bezek in Bezek, and fought with him, —and smote the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
Ary nahita an’ i Adoni-bezeka tany Bezeka izy, dia niady taminy ka naharesy ny Kananita sy ny Perizita.
6 But Adoni-bezek fled, and they pursued him, —and took him, and cut off his thumbs, and his great toes.
Nefa nandositra Adoni-bezeka; ary nanenjika azy izy ireto ka nisambotra azy, dia nanapaka ny ankihiben-tànany sy ny ankihiben-tongony.
7 Then said Adoni-bezek—Seventy kings, with their thumbs and great toes cut off, have been picking up crumbs under my table, as I have done, so, hath God requited me. And they brought him into Jerusalem, and he died there.
Ary hoy Adoni-bezeka: Mpanjaka fito-polo voatapaka ny ankihiben-tànany sy ny ankihiben-tongony no nitsindroka hanina teo ambanin’ ny latabatro; ka mba tahaka ny nataoko ihany lahy ity no navalin’ Andriamanitra ahy! Ary nentin’ ireo ho any Jerosalema izy ka maty tany.
8 And the sons of Judah made war upon Jerusalem, and captured it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, —and, the city, they set on fire.
Ary namely an’ i Jerosalema ny taranak’ i Joda, ka nahafaka azy, dia namely azy tamin’ ny lelan-tsabatra ka nandoro ny tanàna.
9 And, afterwards, the sons of Judah went down to make war upon the Canaanites, —dwelling in the hill country, and in the south, and in the lowland.
Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia nidina ny taranak’ i Joda hiady amin’ ny Kananita izay nonina tany amin’ ny tany havoana sy tany amin’ ny tany atsimo ary tany amin’ ny tany lemaka amoron-tsiraka.
10 And Judah went against the Canaanites who were dwelling in Hebron, now, the name of Hebron, formerly, was Kiriath-arba, —and they smote Sheshai and Ahiman, and Talmai.
Dia nandeha Joda hiady amin’ ny Kananita, izay nonina tany Hebrona (Kiriat-arba no anaran’ i Hebrona taloha), ka namono an’ i Sesay sy Ahimana ary Talmay.
11 And he went from thence, against the inhabitants of Debir, —now, the name of Debir, formerly, was Kiriath-sepher.
Dia niala tao izy ka nandeha hiady amin’ ny mponina any Debira (Kiriata-sefera no anaran’ i Debira taloha).
12 And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kiriath-sepher, and captureth it, I will give unto him Achsah my daughter, to wife.
Ary hoy Kaleba: Izay mamely an’ i Kiriata-sefera ka mahafaka azy dia homeko azy Aksa zanako-vavy ho vadiny.
13 Then Othniel, son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, captured it, —and he gave him Achsah his daughter, to wife.
Ary Otniela, zanakalahin’ i Kenaza, zandrin’ i Kaleba, no nahafaka azy; ka dia nomeny azy Aksa zananivavy ho vadiny.
14 And it came pass, when she came, that she moved him to ask of her father a field, and, when she alighted from off the ass, Caleb said unto her—What aileth thee?
Ary rehefa voampakatra ravehivavy, dia nanome vava ny lahy hangataka saha tamin-drainy; dia niala faingana tamin’ ny borikiny izy, ka hoy Kaleba taminy: Inona moa no ilainao?
15 And she said unto him—Give me a present; for, south land, hast thou given me, give me therefore pools of water. So Caleb gave her Upper-pools, and Lower-pools.
Ary hoy izy: Omeo tso-drano aho; fa tany tsy misy rano no nomenao ahy ka mba omeo loharano koa aho. Dia nomen’ i Kaleba azy ny loharano ambony sy ny loharano ambany.
16 Now, the sons of the Kenite, father-in-law of Moses, had come up from the city of palm-trees, with the sons of Judah, into the wilderness of Judah, which is in the south of Arad, —so they went and dwelt with the people.
Ary ny taranak’ ilay Kenita, zaodahin’ i Mosesy dia niara-niakatra tamin’ ny taranak’ i Joda niala tao amin’ ny tanàna be rofia hankany an-efitr’ i Joda, atsimon’ i Arada nandeha ireo ka nonina teo amin’ ny Isiraely.
17 Then went Judah, with Simeon his brother, and they smote the Canaanites dwelling in Zephath, —and devoted it to destruction, and the name of the city was called Hormah.
Ary Joda nandeha niaraka tamin’ i Simeona rahalahiny, dia namely ny Kananita, izay nonina tany Zefata, ka nataony ringana ireo, ary ny anaran’ ny tanàna nataony hoe Horma.
18 And Judah captured Gaza with the boundaries thereof, and Ashkelon, with the boundaries thereof, —and Ekron, with the boundaries thereof.
Dia afak’ i Joda Gaza sy ny sisin-taniny an Askelona sy ny sisin-taniny ary Ekrona sy ny sisin-taniny.
19 And it same to pass that Yahweh was with Judah, and he took possession of the hill country, —but did not dispossess the inhabitants of the vale, because they had, chariots of iron.
Ary Jehovah nomba an’ i Joda, ka dia azony ny tany havoana; nefa tsy naharoaka ny mponina teny amin’ ny tany lemaka izy, satria nanana kalesy vy ireny.
20 So they gave unto Caleb Hebron, as spake Moses, —and he drave out from thence the three sons of Anak.
Ary Hebrona dia nomeny an’ i Kaleba, araka izay efa nolazain’ i Mosesy, ka noroahin’ i Kaleba niala tao izy telo lahy, taranaky ny Anakita.
21 But, the Jebusites dwelling in Jerusalem, the sons of Benjamin did not drive out, —but the Jebusites have dwelt with the sons of Benjamin, in Jerusalem, unto this day.
Ary ny taranak’ i Benjamina tsy nandroaka ny Jebosita, izay mponina any Jerosalema; fa ny Jebosita dia miara-monina amin’ ny taranak’ i Benjamina any Jerosalema ihany mandraka androany.
22 Then went up the house of Joseph—they also, —unto Bethel, —and, Yahweh, was with them.
Ary ny taranak’ i Josefa dia niakatra koa hamely an’ i Betela; ary Jehovah nomba azy.
23 And the house of Joseph sent to spy out Bethel, —now, the name of the city, formerly, was, Luz.
Dia naniraka hisafo an’ i Betela ny taranak’ i Josefa (Lozy no anaran’ ny tanàna taloha);
24 So the watchers saw a man, coming forth from the city, —and they said unto him—Shew us, we pray thee, the way to get into the city, and we will deal with thee, in lovingkindness.
ary nahita lehilahy anankiray nivoaka avy tao an-tanàna ny mpisafo ka nanao taminy hoe: Mba atoroy kely anay ny fidirana mankao an-tanàna, dia hamindra fo aminao izahay.
25 And he shewed them the way to get into the city, and they smote the city, with the edge of the sword, —but, the man and all his family, they let go.
Dia natoron-dralehilahy azy ny fidirana mankao an-tanàna, ka dia nasiany tamin’ ny lelan-tsabatra ny tanàna; fa ralehilahy sy ny mpianakaviny rehetra dia navelany handeha.
26 And the man went into the land of the Hittites, —and built a city, and called the name thereof, Luz, that, is the name thereof, unto this day.
Ary nandeha ho any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Hetita ralehilahy, ka nanorina tanàna izy, ary ny anarany dia nataony hoe Lozy, ary mbola izany ihany no anarany mandraka androany.
27 But Manasseh took not possession of Beth-shean and her towns, nor of Taanach and her towns, nor dispossessed 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 were determined to remain in this land;
Ary Manase tsy nahafaka an’ i Beti-sana sy ny zana-bohiny, na Tanaka sy ny zana-bohiny, sady tsy naharoaka ny mponina tany Dora sy ny zana-bohiny, na ny mponina tany Ibleama sy ny zana-bohiny, na ny mponina tany Megido sy ny zana-bohiny, satria tian’ ny Kananita hitoerana indrindra izany tany izany.
28 when Israel, however, had waxed strong, they put the Canaanites under tribute, —though they, dispossessed, them not.
Fa rehefa nihahery kosa ny Isiraely, dia nampanaoviny fanompoana ny Kananita, fa tsy nandroaka azy rehetra izy.
29 And, Ephraim, dispossessed not the Canaanites who were dwelling in Gezer, —so the Canaanites remained in their midst, in Gezer.
Ary Efraima tsy nandroaka ny Kananita, izay nonina tany Gazera; fa nonina teo aminy tany Gazera ny Kananita.
30 Zebulun, dispossessed not the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol, —but the Canaanites remained in their midst, and came under tribute.
Zebolona tsy nandroaka ny mponina tany Kitrona, na ny mponina tany Nahalola; fa nonina teo aminy ny Kananita ka nampanaovina fanompoana.
31 Asher, dispossessed not the inhabitants of Acco, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, —nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob;
Asera tsy nandroaka ny mponina tany Ako, na ny mponina tany Sidona, na ny tany Alaba, na ny tany Akziba, na ny tany Helba, na ny tany Afika, na ny tany Rehoba;
32 but the Asherites dwelt in the midst of the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, —for they dispossessed them not.
fa nonina teo amin’ ny Kananita tompon-tany ny taranak’ i Asera, fa tsy nandroaka azy.
33 Naphtali, dispossessed not the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh nor the inhabitants of Beth-anath, but they dwelt in the midst of the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, —and, the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, and of Beth-anath, became theirs, under tribute.
Naftaly tsy nandroaka ny mponina tany Beti-semesy, na ny mponina tany Bet-anata; fa nonina teo amin’ ny Kananita tompon-tany izy, kanefa nampanaoviny fanompoana ny mponina tany Beti-semesy sy Bet-anata.
34 And the Amorites forced the sons of Dan into the hill country, —for they suffered them not to come down into the vale;
Ary ny Amorita nanesika ny taranak’ i Dana ho any amin’ ny tany havoana, fa tsy namela azy hidina ho any amin’ ny tany lemaka,
35 and, though the Amorites were determined to remain in the hill country of Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim, yet was the hand of the house of Joseph heavy, so that they came under tribute.
fa tian’ ny Amorita hitoerana indrindra ny tendrombohitra Heresa sy ny tany Aialona sy Salbima; nefa nahery ny tanan’ ny taranak’ i Josefa, ka dia nampanaovina fanompoana ireo.
36 And, the boundary of the Amorites, was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela and upwards.
Ary ny fari-tanin’ ny Amorita dia hatramin’ ny fiakarana Akrabima ka hatramin’ ilay harambato no ho mankany.
