< Hakim-hakim 1 >
1 Sesudah Yosua meninggal, umat Israel bertanya kepada TUHAN, “Suku mana yang harus maju terlebih dahulu untuk berperang melawan orang Kanaan?”
It happened after the death of Joshua, the children of Israel asked of the LORD, saying, "Who should go up first to fight for us against the Canaanites?"
2 Jawab TUHAN, “Suku Yehuda yang maju lebih dulu. Aku sudah memberikan negeri itu kepada mereka.”
The LORD said, "Judah should go up. Look, I have delivered the land into his hand."
3 Lalu suku Yehuda berkata kepada suku Simeon, saudara mereka, “Bergabunglah bersama kami untuk memerangi orang Kanaan dan merebut wilayah yang ditentukan untuk kami. Sesudah itu kami juga akan membantu kalian merebut wilayah yang ditentukan bagi kalian.” Maka suku Simeon pun ikut bersama suku Yehuda.
Judah said to Simeon his brother, "Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with you into your lot." So Simeon went with him.
4 Mereka maju berperang dan TUHAN membuat mereka menang atas orang Kanaan serta orang Feris. Di kota Bezek mereka membunuh sepuluh ribu orang. Di sana mereka juga menemukan raja Bezek dan menyerang dia.
Judah went up; and the LORD delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand: and they struck of them in Bezek ten thousand men.
They found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek; and they fought against him, and they struck the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
6 Saat dia melarikan diri, mereka mengejar dan menangkap dia. Mereka memotong ibu jari dari kedua tangan dan kedua kakinya.
But Adoni-Bezek fled; and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
7 Lalu kata raja Bezek itu, “Saya pernah mengalahkan tujuh puluh raja dan memotong ibu jari tangan dan kaki mereka. Lalu seperti anjing mereka terpaksa sisa-sisa makanan yang jatuh dari meja saya. Sekarang Allah membalaskan kepada saya sebagaimana saya memperlakukan raja-raja itu.” Kemudian dia dibawa ke Yerusalem dan mati di sana.
Adoni-Bezek said, "Seventy kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, scavenged under my table: as I have done, so God has requited me." They brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
8 Sesudah itu suku Yehuda menyerang kota Yerusalem dan merebutnya. Mereka membantai penduduknya dan membakar kota itu.
The people of Judah fought against Jerusalem, and took it, and struck it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
9 Mereka juga menyerang orang-orang Kanaan yang tinggal di daerah perbukitan, di padang belantara Negeb di wilayah selatan, dan di dataran rendah.
Afterward the people of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites who lived in the hill country, and in the Negev, and in the lowland.
10 Kemudian mereka mengalahkan dan menghabisi tiga keluarga besar raksasa Kanaan yang tinggal di kota Kiryat Arba, yaitu orang-orang Sesai, Ahiman, dan Talmai. Di kemudian hari, kota itu diberi nama Hebron.
And Judah went against the Canaanites who lived in Hebron, and Hebron came out in opposition (now the name of Hebron before was Kiriath Arba), and they struck Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.
11 Dari Hebron, mereka pergi menyerang penduduk kota Kiryat Sefer. Di kemudian hari kota itu diberi nama Debir.
From there he went against the inhabitants of Debir. (Now the name of Debir before was Kiriath Sepher.)
12 Pada waktu itu Kaleb berkata, “Kepada siapa pun yang menyerang kota Kiryat Sefer dan berhasil merebutnya, aku akan memberikan Aksa, anak perempuanku, menjadi istrinya.”
Caleb said, "He who strikes Kiriath Sepher, and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife."
13 Lalu Otniel, anak Kenas saudara Kaleb, berhasil merebut kota itu. Maka Kaleb memberikan Aksa kepada Otniel untuk menjadi istrinya.
Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.
14 Ketika mereka menikah, Aksa membujuk Otniel untuk meminta ladang dari Kaleb, ayahnya. Tetapi ketika Aksa sedang menunggangi keledai, dia bertemu dengan Kaleb. Aksa turun dari keledainya dan Kaleb bertanya, “Apa yang kamu inginkan?”
It happened, when she came to him, that she got him to ask her father for a field. And she got off from her donkey, and Caleb said to her, "What would you like?"
15 Jawab Aksa, “Aku punya permintaan khusus. Ayah sudah memberiku tanah kering di padang belantara Negeb di selatan. Karena itu, mohon berikanlah juga kepadaku mata air.” Maka Kaleb memberikan dua mata air kepadanya, satu di dataran tinggi dan satu di dataran rendah.
She said to him, "Give me a blessing; since you have given me the land in the Negev, give me also springs of water." So Caleb gave her according to her heart the upper springs and the lower springs.
16 Waktu suku Yehuda meninggalkan kota Yeriko (yang juga disebut kota Pohon Kurma), orang-orang Keni— yaitu keturunan dari mertua Musa— ikut bersama mereka menuju ke padang belantara di bagian selatan wilayah Yehuda. Orang-orang Keni itu menetap di antara suku Yehuda di dekat kota Arad, di Negeb.
And the descendants of the Kenite, Moses' father-in-law, went up out of the city of palm trees with the people of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which is in the Negev of Arad; and they went and lived with the people.
17 Kemudian suku Yehuda bergabung dengan suku Simeon untuk menumpas orang-orang Kanaan yang tinggal di kota Zefat. Mereka membinasakan seluruh kota itu sehingga kota itu dinamai Horma, yang artinya ‘musnah’.
Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they struck the Canaanites who inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. The name of the city was called Hormah.
18 TUHAN menyertai suku Yehuda sehingga mereka berhasil merebut kota Gaza, Askelon, dan Ekron, serta daerah-daerah di sekitarnya. Yehuda juga berhasil menguasai daerah perbukitan, tetapi mereka tidak dapat mengusir penghuni daerah lembah karena penduduk di sana memiliki kereta-kereta perang dari besi.
Also Judah took Gaza with its territory, and Ashkelon with its territory, and Ekron with its territory, and Ashdod with its surrounding lands.
The LORD was with Judah; and drove out the inhabitants of the hill country; for he could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
20 Kota Hebron diberikan kepada Kaleb, sesuai janji Musa. Dan Kaleb mengusir tiga keluarga besar raksasa keturunan Anakim dari sana.
They gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses had spoken. And from there he possessed the three cities, and he drove out from there the three sons of Anak.
21 Akan tetapi, suku Benyamin tidak mengusir orang Yebus yang tinggal di Yerusalem. Karena itu, orang Yebus masih tinggal di sana bersama suku Benyamin sampai kitab ini ditulis.
The people of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites who inhabited Jerusalem; but the Jebusites dwell with the people of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.
22 Kedua suku keturunan Yusuf (yaitu Efraim dan Manasye) menyerang kota Betel (yang sejak zaman dahulu disebut Lus). TUHAN menyertai mereka. Sebelum menyerang, mereka mengutus beberapa orang untuk mengintai kota itu.
And the house of Joseph also went up against Bethel; and the LORD was with them.
And the house of Joseph sent out spies to Bethel. (Now the name of the city before was Luz.)
24 Ketika para pengintai melihat seorang laki-laki keluar dari kota itu, mereka berkata kepadanya, “Kalau kamu menunjukkan pintu rahasia untuk masuk ke kota ini, kami akan berbaik hati dan tidak membunuhmu.”
And the spies saw a man coming out of the city, and they captured him, and they said to him, "Please show us the entrance into the city, and we will show you mercy."
25 Maka laki-laki itu menunjukkan pintu rahasia kota Betel kepada mereka. Lalu Suku Efraim dan suku Manasye menyerang Betel dan membunuh semua penduduk di sana, kecuali laki-laki itu dan seluruh keluarganya.
He showed them the entrance into the city; and they struck the city with the edge of the sword; but they let the man go and all his family.
26 Laki-laki itu pergi ke negeri orang Het. Di sana dia membangun sebuah kota dan menamainya Lus. Itulah nama kota itu sampai saat kitab ini ditulis.
The man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called its name Luz, which is its name to this day.
27 Suku Manasye tidak mengusir orang-orang Kanaan yang tinggal di kota Bet Sean, Taanak, Dor, Yibleam, dan Megido serta desa-desa di sekitar kota-kota itu, karena orang-orang Kanaan itu bersikeras untuk tetap tinggal di sana.
Manasseh did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth Shean and its towns, nor Taanach and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
28 Ketika bangsa Israel menjadi lebih kuat, mereka memperbudak orang-orang Kanaan itu, tetapi tidak pernah mengusir mereka sepenuhnya.
It happened, when Israel had grown strong, that they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and did not utterly drive them out.
29 Suku Efraim juga tidak mengusir orang-orang Kanaan yang tinggal di kota Gezer. Jadi, orang-orang Kanaan itu tetap tinggal di antara suku Efraim.
Ephraim didn't drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer; but the Canaanites lived in Gezer among them.
30 Suku Zebulon tidak mengusir orang-orang Kanaan yang tinggal di kota Kitron dan Nahalol. Jadi, orang-orang Kanaan itu tetap tinggal di antara suku Zebulon, walaupun sebagai budak mereka.
Zebulun didn't drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites lived among them, and became subject to forced labor.
31 Suku Asyer juga tidak mengusir orang-orang Kanaan yang tinggal di kota Ako, Sidon, Ahlab, Aksib, Helba, Afek, dan Rehob.
Asher did not drive out the inhabitants of Acco, nor the inhabitants of Sidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob;
32 Jadi, mereka hidup di antara orang-orang Kanaan itu.
but the Asherites lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land; for they did not drive them out.
33 Suku Naftali tidak mengusir orang-orang Kanaan yang tinggal di kota Bet Semes dan kota Bet Anat. Jadi, suku Naftali tinggal di antara penduduk asli daerah itu, dan akhirnya memperbudak mereka.
Naphtali didn't drive out the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth Anath; but he lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh and of Beth Anath became subject to forced labor.
34 Suku Dan didesak orang Amori mundur ke daerah perbukitan. Orang Amori tidak membiarkan mereka turun ke daerah dataran rendah.
The Amorites forced the people of Dan into the hill country; for they would not allow them to come down to the valley;
35 Orang Amori yang tinggal di gunung Heres, kota Ayalon, dan kota Saalbim bersikeras untuk tetap tinggal di sana. Di kemudian hari, suku Efraim dan Manasye bertambah kuat dan memperbudak orang Amori itu.
but the Amorites would dwell in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim: yet the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, so that they became subject to forced labor.
36 Sedangkan di selatan, wilayah bangsa Amori dahulu dimulai dari Sela di timur, melalui Jalur Pendakian Kalajengking, dan terus mendaki ke barat sampai daerah perbukitan.
The border of the Amorites was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela and upward.
