Juízes 1
1 E sucedeu, depois da morte de Josué, que os filhos de Israel perguntaram ao Senhor, dizendo: Quem dentre nós primeiro subirá aos cananeus, para pelejar contra eles?
After the death of Joshua, the sons of Israel consulted the Lord, saying, “Who will ascend before us, against the Canaanite, and who will be the commander of the war?”
2 E disse o Senhor: Judá subirá: eis que lhe dei esta terra na sua mão.
And the Lord said: “Judah shall ascend. Behold, I have delivered the land into his hands.”
3 Então disse Judá a Simeão, seu irmão: Sobe comigo à minha sorte, e pelejemos contra os cananeus, e também eu contigo subirei à tua sorte. E Simeão partiu com ele.
And Judah said to his brother Simeon, “Go up with me to my lot, and fight against the Canaanite, so that I also may go forth with you to your lot.” And Simeon went with him.
4 E subiu Judá, e o Senhor lhe deu na sua mão os cananeus e os pherezeus: e feriram deles em Bezek a dez mil homens.
And Judah went up, and the Lord delivered the Canaanite, as well as the Perizzite, into their hands. And they struck down ten thousand of the men at Bezek.
5 E acharam a Adoni-bezek em Bezek, e pelejaram contra ele: e feriram aos cananeus e aos pherezeus.
And they found Adonibezek at Bezek, and they fought against him, and they struck down the Canaanite and the Perizzite.
6 Porém Adoni-bezek fugiu, e o seguiram, e o prenderam, e lhe cortaram os dedos polegares das mãos e dos pés.
Then Adonibezek fled. And they pursued him and captured him, and they cut off the ends of his hands and feet.
7 Então disse Adoni-bezek: Setenta reis com os dedos polegares 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 Jerusalém, e morreu ali.
And Adonibezek said: “Seventy kings, with the ends of their hands and feet amputated, have been gathering the remnants of food under my table. Just as I have done, so has God repaid me.” And they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
8 Porque os filhos de Judá pelejaram contra Jerusalém, e a tomaram, e a feriram ao fio da espada: e a cidade puseram a fogo.
Then the sons of Judah, besieging Jerusalem, seized it. And they struck it with edge of the sword, delivering the entire city to be burned.
9 E depois os filhos de Judá desceram a pelejar contra os cananeus que habitavam nas montanhas, e no sul, e nas planícies.
And afterward, descending, they fought against the Canaanites who were living in the mountains, and in the south, and in the plains.
10 E partiu Judá contra os cananeus que habitavam em Hebron (era porém de antes o nome de Hebron Quiriath-arba): e feriram a Sesai, e a Ahiman e a Talmai.
And Judah, going forth against the Canaanites who were living at Hebron, (the name of which from antiquity was Kiriath-Arba) struck down Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.
11 E dali partiu contra os moradores de Debir: e era de antes o nome de Debir Quiriath-sepher.
And continuing on from there, he went to the inhabitants of Debir, the old name of which was Kiriath-Sepher, that is, the City of Letters.
12 E disse Caleb: Quem ferir a Quiriath-sepher, e a tomar, lhe darei a minha filha Acsa por mulher.
And Caleb said, “Whoever will strike Kiriath-Sepher, and will lay waste to it, I will give to him my daughter Achsah as wife.”
13 E tomou-a Othniel, filho de Kenaz, o irmão de Caleb, mais novo do que ele: e Caleb lhe deu a sua filha Acsa por mulher.
And when Othniel, the son of Kenaz, a younger brother of Caleb, had seized it, he gave his daughter Achsah to him in marriage.
14 E sucedeu que, vindo ela a ele, o persuadiu que pedisse um campo a seu pai; e ela se apeou do jumento, saltando: e Caleb lhe disse: Que é o que tens?
And as she was traveling on a journey, her husband admonished her, so that she would request a field from her father. And since she had sighed while sitting on her donkey, Caleb said to her, “What is it?”
15 E ela lhe disse: Dá-me uma benção; pois me deste uma terra seca, dá-me também fontes de águas. E Caleb lhe deu as fontes superiores e as fontes inferiores.
But she responded: “Give a blessing to me. For you have given me a dry land. Also give a watered land.” Therefore, Caleb gave to her the upper watered land and the lower watered land.
16 Também os filhos do keneu, sogro de Moisés, subiram da cidade das palmeiras com os filhos de Judá ao deserto de Judá, que está ao sul de Arad: e foram, e habitaram com o povo.
Now the sons of the Kenite, the relative of Moses, ascended from the City of Palms, with the sons of Judah, into the wilderness of his lot, which is toward the south of Arad. And they lived with him.
17 Foi-se pois Judá com Simeão, seu irmão, e feriram aos cananeus que habitavam em Zephath: e totalmente a destruiram, e chamaram o nome desta cidade Horma.
Then Judah went out with his brother Simeon, and together they struck the Canaanites who were living at Zephath, and they put them to death. And the name of the city was called Hormah, that is, Anathema.
18 Tomou mais Judá a Gaza com o seu termo, e a Ascalon com o seu termo, e a Ecron com o seu termo.
And Judah seized Gaza, with its parts, and Ashkelon as well as Ekron, with their borders.
19 E foi o Senhor com Judá, e despovoou as montanhas: porém não expeliu aos moradores do vale, porquanto tinham carros ferrados.
And the Lord was with Judah, and he possessed the mountains. But he was not able to wipe out the inhabitants of the valley. For they abounded with chariots armed with scythes.
20 E deram Hebron a Caleb, como Moisés o dissera: e dali expeliu os três filhos de Enak.
And just as Moses had said, they gave Hebron to Caleb, who destroyed out of it the three sons of Anak.

But the sons of Benjamin did not wipe out the Jebusite inhabitants of Jerusalem. And the Jebusite has lived with the sons of Benjamin in Jerusalem, even to the present day.
22 E subiu também a casa de José a bethel, e foi o Senhor com eles.
The house of Joseph also ascended against Bethel, and the Lord was with them.
23 E fez a casa de José espiar a bethel: e foi de antes o nome desta cidade Luz.
For when they were besieging the city, which was previously called Luz,
24 E viram os espias a um homem, que saía da cidade, e lhe disseram: Ora mostra-nos a entrada da cidade, e usaremos contigo de beneficência.
they saw a man departing from the city, and they said to him, “Reveal to us the entrance to the city, and we will act with mercy toward you.”
25 E, mostrando-lhes ele a entrada da cidade, feriram a cidade ao fio da espada: porém àquele homem e a toda a sua família deixaram ir.
And when he had revealed it to them, they struck the city with the edge of the sword. But that man, and all his relatives, they released.
26 Então aquele homem foi-se à terra dos heteus, e edificou uma cidade, e chamou o seu nome Luz; este é o seu nome até ao dia de hoje.
And having been sent away, he went out to the land of the Hittites, and he built a city there, and he called it Luz. And so it is called, even to the present day.
27 Nem Manasseh expeliu os habitantes de Beth-sean, nem dos lugares da sua jurisdição; nem a Taanach, com os lugares da sua jurisdição; nem aos moradores de Dor, com os lugares da sua jurisdição; nem aos moradores de Ibleam, com os lugares da sua jurisdição; nem aos moradores de Megiddo, com os lugares da sua jurisdição: e quizeram os cananeus habitar na mesma terra.
Likewise, Manasseh did not destroy Bethshean and Taanach, with their villages, nor the inhabitants of Dor and Ibleam and Megiddo, with their villages. And the Canaanite began to live with them.
28 E sucedeu que, quando Israel cobrou mais forças, fez dos cananeus tributários: porém não os expeliu de todo.

Likewise, Asher did not destroy the inhabitants of Acco and Sidon, Ahlab and Achzib, and Helbah, and Aphik, and Rehob.

Naphtali also did not wipe out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and Bethanath. And he lived among the Canaanite inhabitants of the land. And the Beth-shemeshites and Bethanathites were tributaries to him.
34 E apertaram os amorreus aos filhos de Dan até às montanhas: porque nem os deixavam descer ao vale.
And the Amorite hemmed in the sons of Dan on the mountain, and did not give them a place, so that they might descend to the flatlands.
35 Também os amorreus quizeram habitar nas montanhas de Heres, em Ajalon e em Saalbim: porém prevaleceu a mão da casa de José, e ficaram tributários.
And he lived on the mountain at Har-heres, which is translated as ‘resembling brick,’ and at Aijalon and Sha-alabbin. But the hand of the house of Joseph was very heavy, and he became a tributary to him.
