And it came to pass after the death of Joshua, that the children of Israel enquired of the Lord, saying, Who shall go up for us first against the Chananites, to fight against them?
2 E o SENHOR respondeu: Judá subirá; eis que eu entreguei a terra em suas mãos.
And the Lord said, Judas shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.

And Adonibezek fled, and they pursued after him, and took him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
7 Então disse Adoni-Bezeque: Setenta reis, cortados os polegares de suas mãos e de seus pés, colhiam as migalhas debaixo de minha mesa: como eu fiz, assim Deus me pagou. E meteram-no em Jerusalém, de onde morreu.

And it came to pass as she went in, that Gothoniel urged her to ask a field of her father; and she murmured and cried from off her ass, You have sent me forth into a south land: and Chaleb said to her, What is your request?
15 Ela então lhe respondeu: Dá-me uma bênção: pois me deste terra de secura, que me dês também fontes de águas. Então Calebe lhe deu as fontes de acima e as fontes de abaixo.
And Ascha said to him, Give me, I pray you, a blessing, for you have sent me forth into a south land, and you shall give me the ransom of water: and Chaleb gave her according to her heart the ransom of the upper [springs] and the ransom of the low [springs].
