1 Baada ya kifo cha Yoshua, Waisraeli wakamuuliza Bwana, “Ni nani atakayetangulia kupanda mbele yetu kwa ajili ya kupigana na Wakanaani?”

and to say LORD Judah to ascend: rise behold to give: give [obj] [the] land: country/planet in/on/with hand: power his
3 Ndipo watu wa Yuda wakawaambia Wasimeoni ndugu zao, “Pandeni pamoja nasi katika nchi tuliyopewa, ili tupate kupigana na Wakanaani. Sisi pia tutakwenda pamoja nanyi katika sehemu yenu mliyopewa.” Basi Wasimeoni wakaenda pamoja nao.

4 Yuda aliposhambulia, Bwana akawatia Wakanaani na Waperizi mikononi mwao, nao wakawaua watu 10,000 huko Bezeki.
and to ascend: rise Judah and to give: give LORD [obj] [the] Canaanite and [the] Perizzite in/on/with hand: power their and to smite them in/on/with Bezek ten thousand man
5 Huko ndiko walipomkuta huyo Adoni-Bezeki, nao wakapigana naye na kuwafanya Wakanaani na Waperizi wakimbie.
and to find [obj] Adoni-bezek Adoni-bezek in/on/with Bezek and to fight in/on/with him and to smite [obj] [the] Canaanite and [obj] [the] Perizzite

and to flee Adoni-bezek Adoni-bezek and to pursue after him and to grasp [obj] him and to cut [obj] thumb/big toe hand his and foot his
7 Ndipo Adoni-Bezeki akasema, “Nimewatendea wafalme sabini kama nilivyotendewa na kuwalisha makombo ya chakula chini ya meza yangu. Sasa Mungu amenilipa haya, kama yale niliyowatendea.” Wakamleta Yerusalemu, naye akafa huko.

8 Watu wa Yuda wakashambulia pia Yerusalemu na kuiteka. Wakaupiga mji kwa upanga na kuuchoma kwa moto.
and to fight son: descendant/people Judah in/on/with Jerusalem and to capture [obj] her and to smite her to/for lip: edge sword and [obj] [the] city to send: burn in/on/with fire
9 Baada ya hayo, watu wa Yuda wakateremka kupigana na Wakanaani walioishi katika nchi ya vilima, yaani, Negebu na nchi chini ya vilima vya magharibi.

10 Yuda wakakabiliana na Wakanaani walioishi Hebroni (ambayo hapo kwanza iliitwa Kiriath-Arba) na kuwashinda Sheshai, Ahimani na Talmai.
and to go: went Judah to(wards) [the] Canaanite [the] to dwell in/on/with Hebron and name Hebron to/for face: before Kiriath-arba Kiriath-arba and to smite [obj] Sheshai and [obj] Ahiman and [obj] Talmai

and to go: went from there to(wards) to dwell Debir and name Debir to/for face: before Kiriath-sannah Kiriath-sannah
12 Kalebu akasema, “Nitamwoza binti yangu Aksa kwa mtu atakayeweza kupigana na kuteka Kiriath-Seferi.”
and to say Caleb which to smite [obj] Kiriath-sannah Kiriath-sannah and to capture her and to give: give(marriage) to/for him [obj] Achsah daughter my to/for woman: wife
13 Basi Othnieli mwana wa Kenazi, ndugu mdogo wa huyo Kalebu, akawashinda, kwa hiyo Kalebu akamtoa binti yake Aksa akaolewa naye.
and to capture her Othniel son: child Kenaz brother: male-sibling Caleb [the] small: young from him and to give: give(marriage) to/for him [obj] Achsah daughter his to/for woman: wife
14 Siku moja Aksa alipokuja kwa Othnieli, alimsihi Othnieli amwombe baba yake, Kalebu, shamba. Aksa aliposhuka kutoka juu ya punda wake, Kalebu akamuuliza, “Je, wataka nikufanyie nini?”
and to be in/on/with to come (in): come she and to incite him to/for to ask from with father her [the] land: country and to descend from upon [the] donkey and to say to/for her Caleb what? to/for you
15 Akamjibu, “Naomba unifanyie jambo moja la hisani. Kwa kuwa umenipa ardhi huko Negebu, nipe pia chemchemi za maji.” Ndipo Kalebu akampa chemchemi za juu na za chini.

16 Wazao wa yule Mkeni, baba mkwe wa Mose, wakapanda pamoja na watu wa Yuda kutoka Mji wa Mitende, wakaenda kuishi miongoni mwa watu wa jangwa ya Yuda huko Negebu karibu na mji wa Aradi.

17 Basi watu wa Yuda wakaenda na Wasimeoni ndugu zao kushambulia Wakanaani waishio Sefathi, nao wakauangamiza huo mji kabisa. Kwa hiyo huo mji ukaitwa Horma
and to go: went Judah with Simeon brother: male-sibling his and to smite [obj] [the] Canaanite to dwell Zephath and to devote/destroy [obj] her and to call: call by [obj] name [the] city Hormah

19 Bwana alikuwa pamoja na watu wa Yuda. Wakaimiliki nchi ya vilima, lakini hawakuweza kuwafukuza watu waliokaa katika hiyo tambarare, kwa sababu walikuwa na magari ya chuma.
and to be LORD (with *L(abh)*) Judah and to possess: take [obj] [the] mountain: hill country for not to/for to possess: take [obj] to dwell [the] valley for chariot iron to/for them

22 Basi nyumba ya Yosefu wakashambulia Betheli, naye Bwana alikuwa pamoja nao.
and to ascend: rise house: household Joseph also they(masc.) Bethel Bethel and LORD with them
23 Walipotuma watu kwenda kupeleleza Betheli (ambao hapo kwanza uliitwa Luzu),
and to spy house: household Joseph in/on/with Bethel Bethel and name [the] city to/for face: before Luz
24 wale wapelelezi wakaona mtu anatoka mjini, nao wakamwambia, “Tuonyeshe jinsi ya kuingia mjini nasi tutakutendea wema.”

27 Lakini Manase hawakuwafukuza watu wa Beth-Shani na vijiji vyake, au watu wa Taanaki na vijiji vyake, au watu wa Dori na vijiji vyake, au watu wa Ibleamu na vijiji vyake, au watu wa Megido na vijiji vyake, lakini Wakanaani waliazimu kuishi katika nchi ile.

28 Israeli walipopata nguvu, wakawatia Wakanaani katika kazi ya kulazimishwa, lakini kamwe hawakuwafukuza watoke kabisa.
and to be for to strengthen: strengthen Israel and to set: put [obj] [the] Canaanite to/for taskworker and to possess: take not to possess: take him
29 Wala Efraimu hawakuwafukuza kabisa Wakanaani walioishi Gezeri, bali Wakanaani waliendelea kuishi humo miongoni mwao.

30 Vivyo hivyo Zabuloni hawakuwafukuza Wakanaani walioishi huko Kitroni, wala walioishi Nahaloli, ambao walibaki miongoni mwao; bali waliwatia katika kazi ya kulazimishwa.

33 Wala Naftali hawakuwafukuza wale walioishi Beth-Shemeshi wala wale walioishi Beth-Anathi; lakini Naftali nao pia wakaishi miongoni mwa Wakanaani, wenyeji wa nchi, nao wale walioishi Beth-Shemeshi na Beth-Anathi wakawa watumishi wao katika kazi ya kulazimishwa.
Naphtali not to possess: take [obj] to dwell Beth-shemesh Beth-shemesh and [obj] to dwell Beth-anath Beth-anath and to dwell in/on/with entrails: among [the] Canaanite to dwell [the] land: country/planet and to dwell Beth-shemesh Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath Beth-anath to be to/for them to/for taskworker
34 Waamori wakawazuilia Wadani kwenye nchi ya vilima, kwa maana hawakuwaacha washuke kuingia kwenye sehemu tambarare.
and to oppress [the] Amorite [obj] son: descendant/people Dan [the] mountain: hill country [to] for not to give: allow him to/for to go down to/for valley
35 Waamori pia wakaendelea kukaa katika Mlima Heresi, katika Aiyaloni na Shaalbimu, lakini mkono wa nyumba ya Yosefu ukawalemea, nao wakashindwa hata wakalazimika kuingia katika kazi ya kulazimishwa.
and be willing [the] Amorite to/for to dwell in/on/with mountain: mount (Mount) Heres in/on/with Aijalon and in/on/with Shaalbim and to honor: heavy hand: power house: household Joseph and to be to/for taskworker
