Judges 1
1 Now after the death of Joshua it came to pass, that the children of Israel asked the LORD, saying, Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites first, to fight against them?
Efter Josua död frågade Israels barn Herran, och sade: Ho skall ibland oss föra örliget emot de Cananeer?
2 And the LORD said, Judah shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.
Herren sade: Juda skall föra det; si, jag hafver gifvit landet i hans hand.
3 And 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.
Då sade Juda till sin broder Simeon: Drag med mig upp i min lott, och låt oss strida emot de Cananeer, så vill jag åter draga med dig i din lott. Så drog Simeon med honom.
4 And Judah went up; and the LORD delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand: and they slew of them in Bezek ten thousand men.
Då nu Juda drog ditupp, gaf Herren honom de Cananeer och Phereseer i deras händer; och de slogo i Besek tiotusend män.
5 And they found Adonibezek in Bezek: and they fought against him, and they slew the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
Och de funno AdoniBesek i Besek; och stridde emot honom, och slogo de Cananeer och Phereseer.
6 But Adonibezek fled; and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
Men AdoniBesek flydde, och de jagade efter honom, fingo honom, och höggo af honom tummarna, både af hans händer och fötter.
7 And Adonibezek said, Three score and ten kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered their meat under my table: as I have done, so God has requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.
Då sade AdoniBesek: Sjutio Konungar, med afhuggna tummar af deras händer och fötter, hemtade upp under mitt bord; såsom jag nu gjort hafver, så hafver Gud vedergullit mig. Och de förde honom till Jerusalem, der blef han död.
8 Now the children of Judah had fought against Jerusalem, and had taken it, and smitten it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
Men Juda barn stridde emot Jerusalem, och vunno det, och slogo det med svärdsegg, och brände staden upp.
9 And afterward the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites, that dwelled in the mountain, and in the south, and in the valley.
Sedan drogo Juda barn neder, till att strida emot de Cananeer, som bodde på bergen, och söderut, och i dalarna.
10 And Judah went against the Canaanites that dwelled in Hebron: (now the name of Hebron before was Kirjatharba: ) and they slew Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.
Och Juda drog emot de Cananeer, som bodde i Hebron; men Hebron het i förtiden KiriathArba; och slog Sesai, och Ahiman, och Thalmai;
11 And from there he went against the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjathsepher:
Och drog dädan emot Debirs inbyggare; men Debir het i förtiden KiriathSepher.
12 And Caleb said, He that smites Kirjathsepher, and takes it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
Och Caleb sade: Den som KiriathSepher slår och vinner, honom vill jag gifva mina dotter Achsa till hustru.
13 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
Då vann det Athniel, Kenas son, Calebs yngsta broders; och han gaf honom sina dotter Achsa till hustru.
14 And it came to pass, when she came to him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted from off her ass; and Caleb said to her, What will you?
Och det begaf sig, då hon indrog, vardt henne rådet, att hon skulle bedas en åker af sin fader; och hon gaf sig ifrån åsnanom. Då sade Caleb till henne: Hvad är dig?
15 And she said to him, Give me a blessing: for you have given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the nether springs.
Hon sade: Gif mig en välsignelse; ty du hafver gifvit mig ett söderland; gif mig ock ett, som vatten hafver. Då gaf han henne ett, som vatten hade ofvan och nedan.
16 And the children of the Kenite, Moses’ father in law, went up out of the city of palm trees with the children of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which lies in the south of Arad; and they went and dwelled among the people.
Och de Keniters barn, Mose svågers, drogo upp utu Palma staden med Juda barn uti Juda öken, som ligger sunnan för den staden Arad; och gingo till, och bodde ibland folket.
17 And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they slew the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. And the name of the city was called Hormah.
Och Juda drog åstad med hans broder Simeon, och slogo de Cananeer i Zephat, och gåfvo honom tillspillo, och kallade staden Horma.
18 Also Judah took Gaza with the coast thereof, and Askelon with the coast thereof, and Ekron with the coast thereof.
Dertill vann Juda Gaza med dess tillhöring, och Askelon med dess tillhöring, och Ekron med dess tillhöring.
19 And the LORD was with Judah; and he drove out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
Och Herren var med Juda, så att han intog berget; förty han kunde icke intaga dem som i dalarna bodde, derföre, att de hade jernvagnar.
20 And they gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses said: and he expelled there the three sons of Anak.
Och de gåfvo Caleb Hebron, såsom Mose sagt hade; och han fördref derut de tre Enaks söner.
21 And the children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites that inhabited Jerusalem; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.
Men BenJamins barn fördrefvo icke de Jebuseer, som bodde i Jerusalem; utan de Jebuseer bodde när BenJamins barn i Jerusalem, allt intill denna dag.
22 And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Bethel: and the LORD was with them.
Sammalunda drogo ock Josephs barn upp till BethEl; och Herren var med dem.
23 And the house of Joseph sent to descry Bethel. (Now the name of the city before was Luz.)
Och Josephs hus bespejade BethEl, det tillförene het Lus.
24 And the spies saw a man come forth out of the city, and they said to him, Show us, we pray you, the entrance into the city, and we will show you mercy.
Och hållarena fingo se en man gå utu staden, och sade till honom: Visa oss huru vi skole komma in i staden, så vilje vi göra barmhertighet med dig.
25 And when he showed them the entrance into the city, they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let go the man and all his family.
Och när han hade vist dem hvar de skulle komma in, slogo de staden med svärdsegg; men den mannen och all hans slägt läto de gå.
26 And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called the name thereof Luz: which is the name thereof to this day.
Då drog den samme mannen in uti de Hetheers land, och byggde en stad, och kallade honom Lus. Den heter ännu i dag så.
27 Neither did Manasseh drive out the inhabitants of Bethshean and her towns, nor Taanach and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns: but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
Och Manasse fördref icke BethSean med dess döttrar; icke heller Thaanach med dess döttrar, och icke heller de inbyggare i Dor med dess döttrar, ej heller de inbyggare i Jibleam med dess döttrar, ej heller de inbyggare i Megiddo med dess döttrar; och de Cananeer begynte till att bo i de samma landena.
28 And it came to pass, when Israel was strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute, and did not utterly drive them out.
Men då Israel kom till magt, gjorde han de Cananeer skattpligtiga, och fördref dem icke.
29 Neither did Ephraim drive out the Canaanites that dwelled in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelled in Gezer among them.
Sammalunda fördref icke heller Ephraim de Cananeer, som bodde i Gaser; utan de Cananeer bodde ibland dem i Gaser.
30 Neither did Zebulun drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites dwelled among them, and became tributaries.
Sebulon fördref icke heller dem som bodde i Kitron och Nahalol; utan de Cananeer bodde ibland dem, och voro skattpligtige.
31 Neither did Asher drive out the inhabitants of Accho, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob:
Asser fördref icke dem som bodde i Acco; icke heller dem som bodde i Zidon, i Ahlab, i Achsib, i Helbah, i Aphik och i Rehob;
32 But the Asherites dwelled among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: for they did not drive them out.
Utan de Asseriter bodde ibland de Cananeer, som i landena bodde; ty de fördrefvo dem icke.
33 Neither did Naphtali drive out the inhabitants of Bethshemesh, nor the inhabitants of Bethanath; but he dwelled among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: nevertheless the inhabitants of Bethshemesh and of Bethanath became tributaries to them.
Napthali fördref icke dem som bodde i BethSemes, ej heller i BethAnath; utan bodde ibland de Cananeer, som i landena bodde; men de i BethSemes och i BethAnath vordo skattpligtige.
34 And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the mountain: for they would not suffer them to come down to the valley:
Men de Amoreer trängde Dans barn in på bergena, och stadde dem icke till, att de kommo neder i dalarna.
35 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 tributaries.
Och de Amoreer begynte bo på de bergena Heres i Ajalon och Saalbim; dock vardt Josephs hus hand dem för svår, så att de vordo skattpligtige.
36 And the coast of the Amorites was from the going up to Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.
Och de Amoreers gränsa var der man uppgår till Akrabbim, och ifrå klippone, och ifrå höjdene.
