Judges 1
1 Aftir the deeth of Josue the sones of Israel counseliden the Lord, and seiden, Who schal stie bifor vs ayens Cananei, and schal be duik of the batel?
Yosua wu akyi no, Israelfo bisaa Awurade se, “Abusuakuw bɛn na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkɔtow hyɛ Kanaanfo no so kan?”
2 And the Lord seide, Judas schal stie; lo! Y haue youe the lond in to hise hondis.
Awurade buae se, “Yuda na ɛsɛ sɛ ɔkɔ; mede asase no sodi ahyɛ wɔn nsam.”
3 And Juda seide to Symeon, his brother, Stie thou with me in my lot, and fiyte thou ayens Cananei, that Y go with thee in thi lot.
Enti Yuda ntuanofo no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn nuanom Simeon abusuakuw no se, “Mommɛka yɛn ho na yɛnko ntia Kanaanfo a wɔte asase a wɔde ama yɛn no so. Yɛn nso, yɛbɛboa mo ama moako afa mo asase.” Enti Simeonfo mmarima no ne Yudafo no kɔe.
4 And Symeon yede with hym; and Judas stiede. And the Lord bitook Cananey and Feresei in to `the hondis of hem, and thei killiden in Besech ten thousynde of men.
Bere a Yuda kɔɔ wɔn so no, Awurade ma wodii Kanaanfo ne Perisifo no so nkonim, na wokunkum atamfo akofo mpem du wɔ Besek.
5 And thei founden Adonybozech in Besech, and thei fouyten ayens hym, and smytiden Cananei, and Feresey.
Besek hɔ, wɔne ɔhene Adoni-Besek hyiae, na wɔko tiaa no, dii Kanaanfo no ne Perisifo no so nkonim.
6 Forsothe Adonybozech fledde, whom thei pursueden, and token, and kittiden the endis of hise hondis and feet.
Adoni-Besek guanee, nanso ankyɛ na Israelfo kɔkyeree no twitwaa ne nsa ne ne nan kokurobeti.
7 And Adonybozech seide, Seuenti kyngis, whanne the endis of hondis and feet weren kit awey, gaderiden relifs of metis vndur my bord; as Y dide, so God hath yolde to me. And thei brouyten hym in to Jerusalem, and there he diede.
Ɛmaa Adoni-Besek kae se, “Bere bi, na mewɔ Ahemfo aduɔson a wɔatwitwa wɔn kokurobeti na wɔbɛtasee mporoporowa wɔ me didipon ase. Afei, Awurade atua me nea meyɛɛ wɔn no so ka.” Wɔde no kɔɔ Yerusalem na owui wɔ hɔ.
8 Therfor the sones of Juda fouyten ayens Jerusalem, and token it, and smytiden bi the scharpnesse of swerd, and bitoken al the cytee to brennyng.
Yuda mmarima no tow hyɛɛ Yerusalem so, dii so nkonim. Wokunkum kuropɔn no so nnipa nyinaa, too mu gya.
9 And aftirward thei yeden doun, and fouyten ayens Cananey, that dwellide in the hilli places, and at the south, in `feeldi places.
Ɛno akyi, wɔdan faa anafo fam, kɔtow hyɛɛ Kanaanfo a wɔtete bepɔw asase, Negeb ne atɔe fam nkoko so no so.
10 And Judas yede ayens Cananei, that dwellide in Ebron, whos name was bi eld tyme Cariatharbe; and Judas killide Sisay, and Achyman, and Tholmai.
Yuda bɔ wuraa Kanaanfo a na wɔte Hebron a kan no na wɔfrɛ hɔ Kiriat-Arba no mu, dii Sesai, Ahima ne Talmai so.
11 And fro thennus he yede forth, and yede to the dwelleris of Dabir, whos eld name was Cariathsepher, that is, the citee of lettris.
Wofi hɔ kɔtoaa nnipa a wɔte Debir a kan no na wɔfrɛ hɔ (Kiriat-Sefer no).
12 And Caleph seide, Y schal yyue Axa, my douyter, wijf to hym that schal smyte Cariathsepher, and schal waste it.
Na Kaleb kae se, “Mede me babea Aksa bɛma obi a ɔbɛtow ahyɛ Kiriat-Sefer kurow no so na wadi so no aware.”
13 And whanne Othonyel, sone of Seneth, the lesse brother of Caleph, hadde take it, Caleph yaf Axa, his douyter, wijf to hym.
Ɛnna Kaleb nua kumaa Kenas babarima Otniel kɔfae. Enti Aksa bɛyɛɛ Otniel yere.
14 And hir hosebonde stiride hir, goynge in the weie, that sche schulde axe of hir fadir a feeld; and whanne sche hadde siyid, sittynge on the asse, Caleph seide to hir, What hast thou?
Aksa waree Otniel no, ɔka kyerɛɛ no se ommisa nʼagya Kaleb na ɔmma wɔn asase nka nea wɔwɔ no ho. Ofi nʼafurum so sii fam ara pɛ, Kaleb bisaa no se, “Asɛm bɛn? Dɛn na menyɛ mma wo?”
15 And sche answeride, Yiue thou blessyng to me, for thou hast youe a drye lond to me; yyue thou also a moyst lond with watris. And Caleph yaf to hir the moist lond aboue, and the moist lond bynethe.
Obuae se, “Ma me nhyira bio. Woadom me ama me asase wɔ Negeb, na mesrɛ wo ma me asase a nsu wɔ so.” Enti Kaleb maa no atifi ne anafo nsubɔnten.
16 Forsothe the sones of Cyney, `alye of Moyses, stieden fro the citee of palmes with the sones of Juda, in to the desert of his lot, which desert is at the south of Arath; and dwelliden with hym.
Bere a Yuda abusuakuw fii Yeriko no, Kenifo a wɔyɛ Mose ase barima asefo ne wɔn kɔɔ Yuda sare no so. Wɔtenaa nnipa a wɔwɔ hɔ no mu wɔ beae bi a ɛbɛn Arad a ɛwɔ Negeb.
17 Sotheli Judas yede with Symeon, his brother; and thei smytiden togidere Cananei, that dwellide in Sephar, and killiden hym; and the name of that citee was clepid Horma, that is, cursyng, `ether perfit distriyng, for thilke citee was distried outerly.
Afei, Yuda ne Simeon ka bɔɔ mu ko tiaa Kanaanfo a wɔte Sefat no sɛee kurow no pasaa. Enti wɔtoo kurow no din Horma.
18 And Judas took Gaza with hise coostis, and Ascolon, and Accaron with hise termes.
Ɛno akyi, Yuda ko faa nkuropɔn Gasa, Askelon ne Ekron ne wɔn nsase a atwa wɔn ho ahyia.
19 And the Lord was with Judas, and he `hadde in possessioun the hilli places; and he myyte not do awey the dwelleris of the valei, for thei weren plenteuouse in `yrun charis, scharpe as sithis.
Na Awurade ka Yuda nkurɔfo ho nti, ɛmaa wɔfaa bepɔw nsase no. Nanso wɔantumi ampam nnipa a wɔte tataw so no amfi hɔ, efisɛ na wɔwɔ nnade nteaseɛnam.
20 And `the sones of Israel yauen Ebron to Caleph, as Moises hadde seid, which Caleph dide awei for it thre sones of Enach.
Wɔde Hebron kuropɔn maa Kaleb sɛnea na Mose ahyɛ ho bɔ no. Na Kaleb pam nnipa a na wɔyɛ Anak mmabarima baasa no asefo no fii hɔ.
21 Forsothe the sones of Beniamyn diden not awei Jebusei, the dwellere of Jerusalem; and Jebusei dwellide with the sones of Beniamyn in Jerusalem `til in to present dai.
Benyamin abusuakuw no antumi ampam Yebusifo a na wɔte Yerusalem no. Enti ebesi nnɛ yi, Yebusifo ne Benyamin nkurɔfo da so te Yerusalem.
22 Also the hows of Joseph stiede in to Bethel, and the Lord was with hem.
Yosef asefo kɔtow hyɛɛ Bet-El kurow no so, na Awurade kaa wɔn ho.
23 For whanne thei bisegiden the citee, that was clepid Lusa bifore,
Wɔsomaa akwansrafo kɔɔ Bet-El (a kan no na wɔfrɛ no Lus) hɔ.
24 thei sien a man goynge out of the citee, and thei seiden to hym, Schewe thou to vs the entrynge of the cytee, and we schulen do mercy with thee.
Wɔde nsɛmmisa puapuaa ɔbarima bi a na ofi kuropɔn no mu reba. Wɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Kyerɛ yɛn ɔkwan a wɔde kɔ kuropɔn no mu na yɛn nso, yebehu wo mmɔbɔ.”
25 And whanne he hadde schewid to hem, thei smytiden the citee bi scharpnes of swerd; sotheli thei delyueriden that man and al his kynrede.
Enti ɔkyerɛɛ wɔn kuropɔn no kwan ma wokokunkum kuropɔn no mu nnipa nyinaa, na wogyaw ɔbarima no ne nʼabusuafo.
26 And he was delyuerede, and yede in to the lond of Sethym, and bildide there a citee, and clepid it Luzam; which is clepid so til in to present dai.
Akyiri no, ɔbarima no tutu kɔɔ Hetifo asase so. Ɔkyekyeree kuropɔn wɔ hɔ. Ɔtoo kuropɔn no din Lus. Na saa din no da kuropɔn no so de besi nnɛ.
27 Also Manasses dide not awei Bethsan and Thanael with her townes, and the dwelleris of Endor, and Geblaam and Magedo with her townes; and Cananei bigan to dwelle with hem.
Manase abusuakuw no nso antumi ampam nnipa a na wɔte Bet-Sean, Taanak, Dor, Yibleam, Megido ne wɔn nkuraase no, efisɛ na Kanaanfo no aka se, sɛnea ɛte biara, ɛhɔ ara na wɔpɛ sɛ wɔtena.
28 Sotheli after that Israel was coumfortid, he made hem tributaries, `ethir to paye tribute, and nolde do awey hem.
Israelfo no nyaa ahoɔden kakra no, wɔhyɛɛ Kanaanfo no ma wɔyɛɛ nnwuma sɛ nkoa maa wɔn na wɔampam wɔn amfi asase no so.
29 Sotheli Effraym killide not Cananei that dwellyde in Gaser, but dwellide with hym.
Efraim abusuakuw no nso antumi antu Kanaanfo a na wɔte Geser no enti Kanaanfo no kɔɔ so ne wɔn tenae.
30 Zabulon dide not awey the dwelleris of Cethron, and of Naalon; but Cananei dwellide in the myddis of hym, and was maad tributarie to him.
Sebulon abusuakuw no antumi antu Kanaanfo a na wɔte Kitron ne Nahalol, nti wɔkɔɔ so ne wɔn tenae. Nanso wɔhyɛɛ wɔn ma wɔyɛɛ adwuma sɛ nkoa.
31 Also Aser dide not awey the dwelleris of Acho, and of Sidon, of Alab, and of Azazib, and of Alba, and Aphech, and of Aloa, and of Pha, and of Roob; and he dwellide in the myddis of Cananey,
Aser abusuakuw no nso antumi antu wɔn a na wɔte Ako, Sidon, Ahlab, Aksib, Helba, Afik ne Rehob.
32 dwellere of that lond, and killide not hym.
Nokware, esiane sɛ wɔantumi antu wɔn no nti, Kanaanfo no dɔɔso wɔ asase a Aserfo no te so no so.
33 Neptalym dide not awei the dwelleris of Bethsames, and of Bethanach; and he dwellide among Cananey, dwellere of the lond; and Bethsamytis and Bethanytis weren tributarie to hym.
Naftali abusuakuw no nso antumi antu wɔn a na wɔte Bet-Semes ne Bet-Anat. Mmom, Kanaanfo no dɔɔso wɔ asase a wɔte so no so. Nanso wɔhyɛɛ nnipa a wɔte Bet-Semes ne Bet-Anat ma wɔyɛɛ adwuma sɛ nkoa maa Naftali nkurɔfo.
34 And Ammorrey helde streit the sones of Dan in the hil, and yaf not place to hem to go doun to pleynere places;
Dan abusuakuw no de, Amorifo hyɛɛ wɔn ma wotu kɔɔ bepɔw nsase no so na wɔamma wɔn amma tataw so hɔ.
35 and he dwellide in the hil of Hares, `which is interpretid, Witnessyng, in Hailon, and in Salabym. And the hond of the hows of Joseph was maad heuy, and he was maad tributarie to hym.
Amorifo no sii wɔn adwene pi sɛ, wɔbɛtena Heres bepɔw so wɔ Ayalon ne Saalbim, nanso Yosef asefo no yɛɛ den mmoroso no, wɔhyɛɛ Amorifo no ma wɔyɛɛ adwuma sɛ nkoa.
36 And the terme of Ammorrei was fro the stiyng of Scorpioun, and the stoon, and hiyere places.
Na Amorifo hye fi Akrabbim atrapoe kɔ Sela na ɛtoa so kɔ atifi fam.
