< Judges 1 >

1 After Joshua died, the Israeli people asked Yahweh, “Which [of our tribes] should attack the Canaan people-group first?”
És lőn Józsué halála után, hogy megkérdék az Izráel fiai az Urat, mondván: Ki menjen legelőször közülünk a Kananeusra, hogy hadakozzék ő ellene?
2 Yahweh replied, “I will enable the tribe of Judah to defeat [IDM] the Canaan people-group.”
És monda az Úr: Júda menjen! Ímé az ő kezébe adtam azt a földet.
3 The men of Judah went to their fellow Israelis, [the men] from the tribe of Simeon, and said to them, “Come and help us to fight the Canaan people-group [in order that we can take from them] the land [that Yahweh] allotted to us. If you do that, we will go with you [and help you] conquer the people in the land [that Yahweh promised to give to] you.” So the men from the tribe of Simeon went with the men of the tribe of Judah.
Ekkor monda Júda az ő atyjafiának Simeonnak: Jer velem együtt a nékem sors által jutott örökségbe, hogy hadakozzunk a Kananeus ellen, és én is elmegyek veled a néked sors által jutott örökségbe. És Simeon elméne vele.
4 When the men of those two tribes attacked, Yahweh enabled them to defeat 10,000 men of the Canaan people-group and the Periz people-group [DOU] at Bezek [city].
És felméne Júda, és kezökbe adá az Úr a Kananeust és a Perizeust, és levágtak közülök Bézekben tízezer embert.
5 During the battle they found Adoni-Bezek, the leader of the city,
És találák Adonibézeket Bézekben, és hadakozának ő ellene, és megverék a Kananeust és a Perizeust.
6 but he [tried to] run away. The Israelis pursued him and caught him. Then they cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
És megfutamodott Adonibézek, de űzőbe vevék, és elfogván őt, elvágták kezeinek és lábainak hüvelykújjait.
7 Adoni-Bezek said, “[My army captured] 70 kings. We cut off their thumbs and big toes. After that, [we forced] those kings to eat scraps that fell from our table. Now God has (paid me back for/done to me like) [what we did to them].” Then the men of Judah took Adoni-Bezek to Jerusalem, and he died there.
Ekkor monda Adonibézek: Hetven király szedeget vala asztalom alatt, a kiknek elvágattam kezeik és lábaik hüvelykujjait; a mint én cselekedtem, úgy fizetett nékem az Isten. Azután elvivék őt Jeruzsálembe, és ott meghala.
8 The army of Judah fought against the men of Jerusalem, and they captured the city. With their swords they killed [the people who lived there] and they burned [the houses in] the city.
Azután Jeruzsálem ellen hadakoztak a Júda fiai, és elfoglalván azt, lakosait levágták fegyvernek élivel, a várost pedig lángba borították.
9 Later, the men of Judah went down to fight the Canaan people-group who lived in the hilly area, in the desert to the south, and in the foothills [to the west].
Azután pedig alámenének a Júda fiai, hogy harczoljanak a hegységen, a déli tartományban és a lapályon lakó Kananeus ellen.
10 The men of Judah also went to fight against the Canaan people-group who lived in Hebron [city], which at that time was named Kiriath-Arba. They defeated [the armies of kings] Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
És elment Júda a Hebronban lakó Kananeus ellen, – Hebron neve azelőtt Kirjáth-Arba volt, – és megverték Sésait, Achimánt és Thalmáit.
11 Then they left that area and went to fight against the people living in Debir [city], which was previously named Kiriath-Sepher.
Onnan pedig méne Debir lakói ellen. Debir neve pedig azelőtt Kirjáth-Széfer volt.
12 [Before they attacked the city], Caleb said to them, “If one of you attacks and captures Kiriath-Sepher, I will allow him to marry my daughter.”
És monda Káleb: A ki Kirjáth-Széfert megveri és elfoglalja, annak feleségül adom az én leányomat, Akszát.
13 Othniel, who was the son of Caleb’s younger brother Kenaz, captured the city. So Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to him, to become his wife.
És elfoglalá azt Othniel, Kénáz fia, Káleb öcscse, és néki adá Akszát, az ő leányát feleségül.
14 When Acsah married Othniel, she told him to ask her father to give him a field. [But she decided to ask him herself. She rode to Caleb’s house on her donkey], and when she got off the donkey, Caleb [could see that something was troubling her. So he] asked her, “What do you want?”
És lőn, hogy a mikor eljöve az, biztatá őt, hogy kérjen mezőt az ő atyjától. Leszálla azért a szamárról, Káleb pedig monda néki: Mi bajod van?
15 She replied, “I want you to do a favor for me. You have given me some land in the southern desert, [but it is very dry there]. So please also give me some [land that has] springs of water.” So Caleb gave her some land on higher ground that had a spring, and some land on lower ground that also had a spring.
Ő pedig monda néki: Adj áldást nékem: mert déli vidékre helyheztettél engem, adj most vízforrásokat is. És néki adá Káleb a felső forrást és az alsó forrást.
16 The people of the Ken people-group who were descendants of Moses’ father-in-law left Jericho, which was called ‘The City of Palm Trees’. They went with some of the men of Judah to live with them in the southern desert area, near Arad [city].
És Keneusnak, a Mózes ipának fiai is felmentek a pálmák városából a Júda fiaival a Júda pusztájára, mely délre van Aradtól, és elmentek és letelepedtek a nép között.
17 The men of Judah and their fellow Israelis from the tribe of Simeon defeated the people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Zephath [city]. They completely destroyed the city and gave it a new name, Hormah, [which means ‘complete destruction’].
És elment Júda az ő atyjafiával, Simeonnal, és megverék a Czéfátban lakó Kananeust, és elpusztították azt, és elnevezték a várost Hormának.
18 The men of Judah also captured Gaza, Ashkelon, and Ekron [cities] and all the land that is near those cities.
Azután elfoglalta Júda Gázát és annak határát, Askelont és annak határát, Ekront és annak határát.
19 Yahweh helped the men of Judah to capture the hilly area, but they could not force the people who were living in the plains to leave, because [those people had better weapons—] had iron chariots.
Vala pedig az Úr Júdával, és kiűzé a hegység lakóit; de a völgy lakóit nem lehetett kiűzni, mert vas-szekereik voltak.
20 Hebron [city] was given to Caleb because Moses had promised him that he could have that city. And Caleb forced the three clans descended from Anak to leave that area.
És Kálebnek adták Hebront, a mint meghagyta volt Mózes, és kiűzé onnan Anák három fiát.
21 But the people of the tribe of Benjamin could not force the people of the Jebus people-group to leave Jerusalem. So, since that time the people of the Jebus people-group have lived in Jerusalem with the people of the tribe of Benjamin.
De a Jebuzeust, Jeruzsálemnek lakóját nem űzték el a Benjámin fiai, és ezért lakik a Jebuzeus a Benjámin fiaival Jeruzsálemben még máig is.
22 The men of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh went to fight against [the men of] Bethel [city], and Yahweh helped them.
És felméne a József háza is, Béthel ellen, és az Úr volt ő vele.
23 They sent some spies to [find out everything that they could find out about] Bethel, which was previously called Luz.
És kikémlelteté a József háza Béthelt. A város neve pedig régenten Lúz volt.
24 The spies saw a man who was coming out of the city. They said to him, “If you show us a way to get into the city, we will be kind to you [and we will not kill you].”
És látának a kémek egy férfiút, a ki a városból jött vala, és mondának néki: Mutasd meg a város bejárását, és irgalmasságot cselekszünk veled.
25 So the man showed them a way to enter the city. The men of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh entered the city and killed all the people with their swords, but they did not kill the man [who showed them how to get into the city], and they did not kill his family.
És mikor ez megmutatta nékik a város bejárását, a várost fegyver élére hányták; de azt a férfiút és egész házanépét elbocsáták.
26 That man went to the area where the descendants of Heth lived, and built a city. He named the city Luz, and that is still the name of that city.
És elment az a férfiú a Khitteusok földére, és várost épített, és elnevezé azt Lúznak. Ez annak neve mind e mai napig.
27 There were people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Beth-Shan, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, and Megiddo [cities] and in the surrounding villages. [The men of] the tribe of Manasseh did not force those people to leave those towns, because the people of the Canaan people-group were determined to stay there.
És nem űzte el Manassé a lakosokat sem Béthseánból és annak mezővárosaiból, sem Taanakból és mezővárosaiból, sem Dórból és mezővárosaiból, sem a Jibleámnak és mezővárosainak lakosait, sem Megiddónak és mezővárosainak lakosait. És a Kananeusnak tetszett ott lakni azon a földön.
28 Later, the Israelis became (stronger/more numerous), and they forced the people of the Canaan people-group to work for them [as their slaves], but they did not force all the people of the Canaan people-group to leave their land.
És mikor Izráel megerősödött, adófizetőjévé tette a Kananeust; de elűzni nem űzte el.
29 [The men of] the tribe of Ephraim did not force the people of the Canaan people-group to leave Gezer [city]. So the people of the Canaan people-group continued to live with the people of the tribe of Ephraim.
És Efraim sem űzte ki a Kananeust, a ki Gézerben lakott; hanem a Kananeus ott lakott közöttük Gézerben.
30 [The men of] the tribe of Zebulun did nor compel the people of the Canaan people-group who were living in Kitron and Nahalol [cities] to leave. They stayed there and lived among the people of the tribe of Zebulun, but the people of Zebulun forced them to work for them as their slaves.
Zebulon sem űzte el sem Kitron lakosait, sem Nahalólnak lakóit, hanem közöttük lakozott a Kananeus, és adófizetőikké lettek.
31 [The men of] the tribe of Asher did not force the people of the Canaan people-group who lived in Acco, Sidon, Ahlab, Aczib, Helbah, Aphek and Rehob [cities] to leave.
Áser sem űzte el sem Akkó, sem Sidon, sem Akhláb, sem Akzib, sem Helba, sem Afik, sem Rehob lakóit.
32 So the people of the tribe of Asher lived among them.
És ott lakott Áser a Kananeusok, a föld lakói között, mert nem űzte el őket.
33 [The men of] the tribe of Naphtali did not compel the people who lived in Beth-Shemesh and Beth-Anath [cities] to leave, so the people in those two cities continued to live there, but the people of the Canaan people-group were forced to work as the slaves of the people of the tribe of Naphtali.
Nafthali sem űzte el sem Béth-Semes lakosait, sem Béth-Anath lakóit, hanem ott lakott a Kananeusok, a föld lakói között, és Béth-Semes és Béth-Anath lakói adófizetőikké lettek.
34 The people of the Amor people-group forced the people of the tribe of Dan to live in the hills. They did not allow them to come down [and live] on the plain.
Az Emoreusok pedig felszorították a Dán fiait a hegységbe, mert nem engedték meg, hogy lejőjjenek a völgybe.
35 The people of the Amor people-group were determined to stay in Heres Mountain and in Aijalon and Shaalbim [cities]. But when the Israelis became (stronger/more numerous), they forced the people of the Amor people-group to work as their slaves.
És az Emoreusoknak tetszett ott lakni a Héresz hegységen, Ajalonban és Saalbimban; de mikor a József házának keze rájok nehezedett, adófizetőkké lettek.
36 The land where the Amor people-group lived extended from Scorpion Pass [toward the west] beyond Sela [town], up into the hilly area.
Az Emoreusok határa pedig az Akrabbim hágójától és Sélától fölfelé volt.
