1 यहोशूको मृत्युपछि, इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुलाई यसो भनेर सोधे, “हाम्रा निम्ति कनानीहरूका विरुद्धमा युद्ध लड्नलाई तिनीहरूलाई पहिला कसले आक्रमण गर्नुपर्छ?”
After the death of Joshua, the children of Israel asked of Yahweh, saying, “Who should go up for us first against the Canaanites, to fight against them?”
2 परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, “यहूदाले आक्रमण गर्नेछ । हेर, मैले तिनीहरूलाई यस देशमाथि अधिकार दिएको छु ।”
Yahweh said, “Judah shall go up. Behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.”
3 यहूदाका मानिसहरूले आफ्ना दाजुभाइ शिमियोनीहरूलाई यसो भने, “हामीलाई दिइएको इलाकामा हामीसँग आओ, यसरी कनानीहरूका विरुद्ध हामीले एकसाथ युद्ध लड्न सक्छौं । त्यसरी नै हामी पनि तिमीहरूलाई दिइएको इलाकामा तिमीहरूसँग जानेछौं ।” यसैले शिमियोनी कुल तिनीहरूसँग गए ।
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 यहूदाका मानिसहरूले आक्रमण गरे, र परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई कनानीहरू र परिज्जीहरूमाथि विजय दिनुभयो । तिनीहरूले बेजेकमा तिनीहरूका दश हजार जनालाई मारे ।
Judah went up, and Yahweh delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand. They struck ten thousand men in Bezek.

They found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and they fought against him. They struck the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
6 तर अदोनी-बेजेक भागे, र तिनीहरूले उनलाई लखेटे र समाए, र तिनीहरूले उनका हात र खुट्टाका बुढी औंला काटिदिए ।
But Adoni-Bezek fled. They pursued him, caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
7 अदोनी-बेजेकले भने, “हात र खुट्टाका बुढी औंला काटिएका सत्तरी जना राजाले मेरो टेबिलको मुनिबाट आफ्नो निम्ति भोजन बाटुल्थे । मैले जस्तो गरेको थिएँ, परमेश्वरले मलाई त्यस्तै गर्नुभएको छ ।” तिनीहरूले उनलाई यरूशलेममा ल्याए, र उनी त्यहीं मरे ।
Adoni-Bezek said, “Seventy kings, having their thumbs and their big toes cut off, scavenged under my table. As I have done, so God has done to me.” They brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.

From there he went against the inhabitants of Debir. (The name of Debir before that was Kiriath Sepher.)
12 कालेबले भने, “जसले किर्यत-सेपेरलाई आक्रमण गर्छ र त्यसलाई लिन्छ, त्यसको पत्नी हुनलाई मेरी छोरी अक्सालाई म दिनेछु ।”
Caleb said, “I will give Achsah my daughter as wife to the man who strikes Kiriath Sepher, and takes it.”
13 कालेबका भाइ कनजका छोरा, ओत्निएलले दबीरमाथि कब्जा गरे, यसैले कालेबले आफ्नी छोरी अक्सा तिनकी पत्नी हुनलाई दिए ।
Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, took it, so he gave him Achsah his daughter as his wife.
14 चाँडै नै अक्सा ओत्निएलकहाँ आइन्, र आफ्ना बुबासँग तिनको निम्ति एउटा जमिन मागिदिनलाई बिन्ती गरिन् । तिनी आफ्नो गधाबाट तल झर्दै गर्दा, कालेबले तिनलाई सोधे, “तिम्रो निम्ति म के गर्न सक्छु?”
When she came, she got him to ask her father for a field. She got off her donkey; and Caleb said to her, “What would you like?”
15 तिनले उनलाई भनिन्, “मलाई एउटा आशिष् दिनुहोस् । तपाईंले मलाई नेगेवको भूमि दिनुभएको छ, मलाई पानीका मूलहरू पनि दिनुहोस् ।” यसैले कालेबले तिनलाई माथिल्लो र तल्लो पानीका मूलहरू दिए ।
She said to him, “Give me a blessing; because you have set me in the land of the South, give me also springs of water.” Then Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.

The house of Joseph sent to spy out Bethel. (The name of the city before that was Luz.)

The watchers saw a man come out of the city, and they said to him, “Please show us the entrance into the city, and we will deal kindly with you.”
25 उसले तिनीहरूलाई त्यो सहरभित्र जाने बाटो देखायो, र यसैले तिनीहरूले त्यो सहरलाई तरवारको धारले आक्रमण गरे, तर तिनीहरूले त्यस मानिस र उसका जम्मै परिवारलाई जान दिए ।
