< Judges 1 >
1 After the death of Joshua, the people of Israel asked Yahweh, saying, “Who first will attack the Canaanites for us, to fight against them?”
约书亚死后,以色列人求问耶和华说:“我们中间谁当首先上去攻击迦南人,与他们争战?”
2 Yahweh said, “Judah will attack. See, I have given them control of this land.”
耶和华说:“犹大当先上去,我已将那地交在他手中。”
3 The men of Judah said to men of Simeon, their brothers, “Come up with us into our territory that was assigned to us that together we may fight against the Canaanites. We will likewise go with you to the territory that was assigned to you.” So the tribe of Simeon went with them.
犹大对他哥哥西缅说:“请你同我到拈阄所得之地去,好与迦南人争战;以后我也同你到你拈阄所得之地去。”于是西缅与他同去。
4 The men of Judah attacked, and Yahweh gave them victory over the Canaanites and the Perizzites. They killed ten thousand of them at Bezek.
犹大就上去;耶和华将迦南人和比利洗人交在他们手中。他们在比色击杀了一万人,
5 They found Adoni-Bezek at Bezek, and they fought against him and defeated the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
又在那里遇见亚多尼·比色,与他争战,杀败迦南人和比利洗人。
6 But Adoni-Bezek fled, and they pursued him and caught him, and they cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
亚多尼·比色逃跑;他们追赶,拿住他,砍断他手脚的大拇指。
7 Adoni-Bezek said, “Seventy kings, who had their thumbs and their big toes cut off, gathered their food from under my table. As I have done, even so God has done to me.” They brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
亚多尼·比色说:“从前有七十个王,手脚的大拇指都被我砍断,在我桌子底下拾取零碎食物。现在 神按着我所行的报应我了。”于是他们将亚多尼·比色带到耶路撒冷,他就死在那里。
8 The men of Judah fought against the city of Jerusalem and took it. They attacked it with the edge of the sword and they set the city on fire.
犹大人攻打耶路撒冷,将城攻取,用刀杀了城内的人,并且放火烧城。
9 After that, the men of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites who lived in the hill country, in the Negev, and the western foothills.
后来犹大人下去,与住山地、南地,和高原的迦南人争战。
10 Judah advanced against the Canaanites who lived in Hebron (the name of Hebron was previously Kiriath Arba), and they defeated Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
犹大人去攻击住希伯 的迦南人,杀了示筛、亚希幔、挞买。希伯 从前名叫基列·亚巴。
11 From there the men of Judah advanced against the inhabitants of Debir (the name of Debir was previously Kiriath Sepher).
他们从那里去攻击底壁的居民;底壁从前名叫基列·西弗。
12 Caleb said, “Whoever attacks Kiriath Sepher and takes it, I will give him Aksah, my daughter, to be his wife.”
迦勒说:“谁能攻打基列·西弗,将城夺取,我就把我女儿押撒给他为妻。”
13 Othniel, son of Kenaz (Caleb's younger brother) captured Debir, so Caleb gave him Aksah, his daughter, to be his wife.
迦勒兄弟基纳斯的儿子俄陀聂夺取了那城,迦勒就把女儿押撒给他为妻。
14 Soon Aksah came to Othniel, and she urged him to ask her father to give her a field. As she was getting off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What can I do for you?”
押撒过门的时候,劝丈夫向她父亲求一块田。押撒一下驴,迦勒问她说:“你要什么?”
15 She said to him, “Give me a blessing. Since you have given me the land of the Negev, also give me springs of water.” So Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
她说:“求你赐福给我,你既将我安置在南地,求你也给我水泉。”迦勒就把上泉下泉赐给她。
16 The descendants of Moses' father-in-law the Kenite went up from the City of Palms with the people of Judah, into the wilderness of Judah, which is in the Negev, to live with the people of Judah near Arad.
摩西的内兄是基尼人,他的子孙与犹大人一同离了棕树城,往亚拉得以南的犹大旷野去,就住在民中。
17 The men of Judah went with the men of Simeon their brothers and they attacked the Canaanites who inhabited Zephath and they completely destroyed it. The name of the city was called Hormah.
犹大和他哥哥西缅同去,击杀了住洗法的迦南人,将城尽行毁灭,那城的名便叫何珥玛。
18 The people of Judah also captured Gaza and the land around it, Ashkelon and the land around it, and Ekron and the land around it.
犹大又取了迦萨和迦萨的四境,亚实基伦和亚实基伦的四境,以革伦和以革伦的四境。
19 Yahweh was with the people of Judah and they took possession of the hill country, but they could not drive out the inhabitants of the plains because they had iron chariots.
耶和华与犹大同在,犹大就赶出山地的居民,只是不能赶出平原的居民,因为他们有铁车。
20 Hebron was given to Caleb (like Moses had said), and he drove out from there the three sons of Anak.
以色列人照摩西所说的,将希伯 给了迦勒;迦勒就从那里赶出亚衲族的三个族长。
21 But the people of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites who inhabited Jerusalem. So the Jebusites have lived with the people of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.
便雅悯人没有赶出住耶路撒冷的耶布斯人。耶布斯人仍在耶路撒冷与便雅悯人同住,直到今日。
22 The house of Joseph prepared to attack Bethel, and Yahweh was with them.

23 They sent out men to spy on Bethel (the city that was formerly called Luz).
约瑟家打发人去窥探伯特利(那城起先名叫路斯)。
24 The spies saw a man coming out of the city, and they said to him, “Show us, please, how to get into the city, and we will be kind to you.”
窥探的人看见一个人从城里出来,就对他说:“求你将进城的路指示我们,我们必恩待你。”
25 He showed them a way into the city, and so they attacked the city with the edge of the sword, but they let the man and all his family get away.
那人将进城的路指示他们,他们就用刀击杀了城中的居民,但将那人和他全家放去。
26 Then the man went to the land of the Hittites and built a city and called it Luz, which is its name to this day.
那人往赫人之地去,筑了一座城,起名叫路斯。那城到如今还叫这名。
27 The people of Manasseh did not drive out the people living in the cities of Beth Shan and its villages, or Taanach and its villages, or those who lived in Dor and its villages, or those who lived in Ibleam and its villages, or those who lived in Megiddo and its villages, because the Canaanites were determined to live in that land.
玛拿西没有赶出伯·善和属伯·善乡村的居民,他纳和属他纳乡村的居民,多珥和属多珥乡村的居民,以伯莲和属以伯莲乡村的居民,米吉多和属米吉多乡村的居民;迦南人却执意住在那些地方。

亚设没有赶出亚柯和西顿的居民,亚黑拉和亚革悉的居民,黑巴、亚弗革与利合的居民。
32 So the tribe of Asher lived among the Canaanites (those who lived in the land), because they did not drive them out.
于是,亚设因为没有赶出那地的迦南人,就住在他们中间。
33 The tribe of Naphtali did not drive out those who were living in Beth Shemesh, or those living in Beth Anath. So the tribe of Naphtali lived among the Canaanites (the people who were living in that land). However, the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh and Beth Anath were forced into hard labor for Naphthali.
