Judges 1
1 After Joshua died, the Israeli people asked Yahweh, “Which [of our tribes] should attack the Canaan people-group first?”
E succedeu, depois da morte de Josué, que os filhos de Israel perguntaram ao Senhor, dizendo: Quem d'entre nós primeiro subirá aos cananeos, para pelejar contra elles?
2 Yahweh replied, “I will enable the tribe of Judah to defeat [IDM] the Canaan people-group.”
E disse o Senhor: Judah subirá: eis que lhe dei esta terra na sua mão.
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.
Então disse Judah a Simeão, seu irmão: Sobe commigo á minha sorte, e pelejemos contra os cananeos, e tambem eu comtigo subirei á tua sorte. E Simeão partiu com elle.
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].
E subiu Judah, e o Senhor lhe deu na sua mão os cananeos e os pherezeos: e feriram d'elles em Bezek a dez mil homens.
5 During the battle they found Adoni-Bezek, the leader of the city,
E acharam a Adoni-bezek em Bezek, e pelejaram contra elle: e feriram aos cananeos e aos pherezeos.
6 but he [tried to] run away. The Israelis pursued him and caught him. Then they cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
Porém Adoni-bezek fugiu, e o seguiram, e o prenderam, e lhe cortaram os dedos pollegares das mãos e dos pés.
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.
Então disse Adoni-bezek: Setenta reis com os dedos pollegares das mãos e dos pés cortados apanhavam as migalhas debaixo da minha mesa: assim como eu fiz, assim Deus me pagou. E o trouxeram a Jerusalem, e morreu ali.
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.
Porque os filhos de Judah pelejaram contra Jerusalem, e a tomaram, e a feriram ao fio da espada: e a cidade pozeram a fogo.
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].
E depois os filhos de Judah desceram a pelejar contra os cananeos que habitavam nas montanhas, e no sul, e nas planicies.
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.
E partiu Judah contra os cananeos que habitavam em Hebron (era porém d'antes o nome de Hebron Quiriath-arba): e feriram a Sesai, e a Ahiman e a Talmai.
11 Then they left that area and went to fight against the people living in Debir [city], which was previously named Kiriath-Sepher.
E d'ali partiu contra os moradores de Debir: e era d'antes o nome de Debir Quiriath-sepher.
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.”
E disse Caleb: Quem ferir a Quiriath-sepher, e a tomar, lhe darei a minha filha Acsa por mulher.
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.
E tomou-a Othniel, filho de Kenaz, o irmão de Caleb, mais novo do que elle: e Caleb lhe deu a sua filha Acsa por mulher.
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?”
E succedeu que, vindo ella a elle, o persuadiu que pedisse um campo a seu pae; e ella se apeou do jumento, saltando: e Caleb lhe disse: Que é o que tens?
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.
E ella lhe disse: Dá-me uma benção; pois me déste uma terra secca, dá-me tambem fontes de aguas. E Caleb lhe deu as fontes superiores e as fontes inferiores.
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].
Tambem os filhos do Keneo, sogro de Moysés, subiram da cidade das palmeiras com os filhos de Judah ao deserto de Judah, que está ao sul de Arad: e foram, e habitaram com o povo.
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’].
Foi-se pois Judah com Simeão, seu irmão, e feriram aos cananeos que habitavam em Zephath: e totalmente a destruiram, e chamaram o nome d'esta cidade Horma.
18 The men of Judah also captured Gaza, Ashkelon, and Ekron [cities] and all the land that is near those cities.
Tomou mais Judah a Gaza com o seu termo, e a Ascalon com o seu termo, e a Ecron com o seu termo.
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.
E foi o Senhor com Judah, e despovoou as montanhas: porém não expelliu aos moradores do valle, porquanto tinham carros ferrados.
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.
E deram Hebron a Caleb, como Moysés o dissera: e d'ali expelliu os tres filhos d'Enak.
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.
Porém os filhos de Benjamin não expelliram os jebuseos que habitavam em Jerusalem: antes os jebuseos habitaram com os filhos de Benjamin em Jerusalem, até ao dia d'hoje.
22 The men of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh went to fight against [the men of] Bethel [city], and Yahweh helped them.
E subiu tambem a casa de José a Beth-el, e foi o Senhor com elles.
23 They sent some spies to [find out everything that they could find out about] Bethel, which was previously called Luz.
E fez a casa de José espiar a Beth-el: e foi d'antes o nome d'esta cidade Luz.
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].”
E viram os espias a um homem, que sahia da cidade, e lhe disseram: Ora mostra-nos a entrada da cidade, e usaremos comtigo de beneficencia.
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.
E, mostrando-lhes elle a entrada da cidade, feriram a cidade ao fio da espada: porém áquelle homem e a toda a sua familia deixaram ir.
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.
Então aquelle homem foi-se á terra dos hetheos, e edificou uma cidade, e chamou o seu nome Luz; este é o seu nome até ao dia d'hoje.
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.
Nem Manasseh expelliu os habitantes de Beth-sean, nem dos logares da sua jurisdicção; nem a Taanach, com os logares da sua jurisdicção; nem aos moradores de Dor, com os logares da sua jurisdicção; nem aos moradores de Ibleam, com os logares da sua jurisdicção; nem aos moradores de Megiddo, com os logares da sua jurisdicção: e quizeram os cananeos habitar na mesma terra.
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.
E succedeu que, quando Israel cobrou mais forças, fez dos cananeos tributarios: porém não os expelliu de todo.
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.
Tão pouco expelliu Ephraim aos cananeos que habitavam em Gezer: antes os cananeos habitavam no meio d'elle, em Gezer.
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.
Tão pouco expelliu Zebulon aos moradores de Kitron, nem aos moradores de Nahalol: porém os cananeos habitavam no meio d'elle, e foram tributarios.
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.
Tão pouco Aser expelliu aos moradores d'Acco, nem aos moradores de Sidon: como nem a Acbal, nem a Acsih, nem a Chelba, nem a Aphik, nem a Recob;
32 So the people of the tribe of Asher lived among them.
Porém os aseritas habitaram no meio dos cananeos que habitavam na terra: porquanto os não expelliram.
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.
Tão pouco Naphtali expelliu aos moradores de Beth-semes, nem aos moradores de Beth-anath; mas habitou no meio dos cananeos que habitavam na terra: porém lhes foram tributarios os moradores de Beth-semes e Beth-anath.
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.
E apertaram os amorrheos aos filhos de Dan até ás montanhas: porque nem os deixavam descer ao valle.
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.
Tambem os amorrheos quizeram habitar nas montanhas de Heres, em Ajalon e em Saalbim: porém prevaleceu a mão da casa de José, e ficaram tributarios.
36 The land where the Amor people-group lived extended from Scorpion Pass [toward the west] beyond Sela [town], up into the hilly area.
E foi o termo dos amorrheos desde a subida d'Akrabbim: desde a penha, e d'ali para cima.
