Judges 1 (ASV) American Standard Version

1 And it came to pass after the death of Joshua, that the children of Israel asked of Jehovah, saying, Who shall go up for us first against the Canaanites, to fight against them?
2 And Jehovah said, Judah shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.
3 And Judah said unto Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot. So Simeon went with him.
4 And Judah went up; and Jehovah delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand: and they smote of them in Bezek ten thousand men.
5 And they found Adoni-bezek in Bezek; and they fought against him, and they smote the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
6 But Adoni-bezek fled; and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.
7 And Adoni-bezek said, Threescore and ten kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered their food under my table: as I have done, so God hath requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
8 And the children of Judah fought against Jerusalem, and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
9 And afterward the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites that dwelt in the hill-country, and in the South, and in the lowland.
10 And Judah went against the Canaanites that dwelt in Hebron (now the name of Hebron beforetime was Kiriath-arba); and they smote Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.
11 And from thence he went against the inhabitants of Debir. (Now the name of Debir beforetime was Kiriath-sepher.)
12 And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kiriath-sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
13 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Calebs younger brother, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
14 And it came to pass, when she came unto him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she alighted from off her ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wouldest thou?
15 And she said unto him, Give me a blessing; for that thou hast set me in the land of the South, give me also springs of water. And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the nether springs.
16 And the children of the Kenite, Moses brother-in-law, went up out of the city of palm-trees with the children of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which is in the south of Arad; and they went and dwelt with the people.
17 And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they smote the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. And the name of the city was called Hormah.
18 Also Judah took Gaza with the border thereof, and Ashkelon with the border thereof, and Ekron with the border thereof.
19 And Jehovah was with Judah; and drove out the inhabitants of the hill-country; for he could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
20 And they gave Hebron unto Caleb, as Moses had spoken: and he drove out thence the three sons of Anak.
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 unto this day.
22 And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Beth-el; and Jehovah was with them.
23 And the house of Joseph sent to spy out Beth-el. (Now the name of the city beforetime was Luz.)
24 And the watchers saw a man come forth out of the city, and they said unto him, Show us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we will deal kindly with thee.
25 And he showed them the entrance into the city; and they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let the man go and all his family.
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 unto this day.
27 And Manasseh did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean and its towns, nor of Taanach and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
28 And it came to pass, when Israel was waxed strong, that they put the Canaanites to taskwork, and did not utterly drive them out.
29 And Ephraim drove not out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt in Gezer among them.
30 Zebulun drove not out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites dwelt among them, and became subject to taskwork.
31 Asher drove not out the inhabitants of Acco, nor the inhabitants of Sidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob;
32 but the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land; for they did not drive them out.
33 Naphtali drove not out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth-anath; but he dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and of Beth-anath became subject to taskwork.
34 And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the hill-country; for they would not suffer them to come down to the valley;
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 subject to taskwork.
36 And the border of the Amorites was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.
1 Now after H310 the death H4194 of Joshua H3091 it came to pass, H1961 that the children H1121 of Israel H3478 asked H7592 the LORD, H3068 saying, H559 Who H4310 shall go up H5927 for us against H413 the Canaanites H3669 first, H8462 to fight H3898 against them?
2 And the LORD H3068 said, H559 Judah H3063 shall go up: H5927 behold, H2009 I have delivered H5414 H853 the land H776 into his hand. H3027
3 And Judah H3063 said H559 unto Simeon H8095 his brother, H251 Come up H5927 with H854 me into my lot, H1486 that we may fight H3898 against the Canaanites; H3669 and I H589 likewise H1571 will go H1980 with H854 thee into thy lot. H1486 So Simeon H8095 went H1980 with H854 him.
4 And Judah H3063 went up; H5927 and the LORD H3068 delivered H5414 H853 the Canaanites H3669 and the Perizzites H6522 into their hand: H3027 and they slew H5221 of them in Bezek H966 ten H6235 thousand H505 men. H376
5 And they found H4672 H853 Adoni- H137 bezek in Bezek: H966 and they fought H3898 against him , and they slew H5221 H853 the Canaanites H3669 and the Perizzites. H6522
6 But Adoni- H137 bezek fled; H5127 and they pursued H7291 after H310 him , and caught H270 him , and cut off H7112 H853 his thumbs H931 H3027 and his great toes. H7272
7 And Adoni- H137 bezek said, H559 Threescore and ten H7657 kings, H4428 having their thumbs H931 H3027 and their great toes H7272 cut off, H7112 gathered H3950 their meat under H8478 my table: H7979 as H834 I have done, H6213 so H3651 God H430 hath requited H7999 me . And they brought H935 him to Jerusalem, H3389 and there H8033 he died. H4191
8 Now the children H1121 of Judah H3063 had fought H3898 against Jerusalem, H3389 and had taken H3920 it , and smitten H5221 it with the edge H6310 of the sword, H2719 and set H7971 the city H5892 on fire. H784
9 And afterward H310 the children H1121 of Judah H3063 went down H3381 to fight H3898 against the Canaanites, H3669 that dwelt H3427 in the mountain, H2022 and in the south, H5045 and in the valley. H8219
10 And Judah H3063 went H1980 against H3413 the Canaanites H3669 that dwelt H3427 in Hebron: H2275 (now the name H8034 of Hebron H2275 before H6440 was Kirjath- H7153 arba:) and they slew H5221 H853 Sheshai, H8344 and Ahiman, H289 and Talmai. H8526
11 And from thence H4480 H8033 he went H1980 against H413 the inhabitants H3427 of Debir: H1688 and the name H8034 of Debir H1688 before H6440 was Kirjath- H7158 sepher:
12 And Caleb H3612 said, H559 He that H834 smiteth H5221 H853 Kirjath- H7158 sepher , and taketh H3920 it , to him will I give H5414 H853 Achsah H5919 my daughter H1323 to wife. H802
13 And Othniel H6274 the son H1121 of Kenaz, H7073 Caleb's H3612 younger H6996 brother, H251 took H3920 it : and he gave H5414 him H853 Achsah H5919 his daughter H1323 to wife. H802
14 And it came to pass, H1961 when she came H935 to him , that she moved H5496 him to ask H7592 of H4480 H854 her father H1 a field: H7704 and she lighted H6795 from off H4480 H5921 her ass; H2543 and Caleb H3612 said H559 unto her, What H4100 wilt thou?
15 And she said H559 unto him, Give H3051 me a blessing: H1293 for H3588 thou hast given H5414 me a south H5045 land; H776 give H5414 me also springs H1543 of water. H4325 And Caleb H3612 gave H5414 her H853 the upper H5942 springs H1543 and the nether H8482 springs. H1543
16 And the children H1121 of the Kenite, H7017 Moses' H4872 father- H2859 in-law , went up H5927 out of the city H4480 H5892 of palm trees H8558 with H854 the children H1121 of Judah H3063 into the wilderness H4480 H4057 of Judah, H3063 which H834 lieth in the south H5045 of Arad; H6166 and they went H1980 and dwelt H3427 among H854 the people. H5971
17 And Judah H3063 went H1980 with H854 Simeon H8095 his brother, H251 and they slew H5221 H853 the Canaanites H3669 that inhabited H3427 Zephath, H6857 and utterly destroyed H2763 it . And H853 the name H8034 of the city H5892 was called H7121 Hormah. H2767
18 Also Judah H3063 took H3920 H853 Gaza H5804 with H853 the coast H1366 thereof , and Askelon H831 with the coast H1366 thereof , and Ekron H6138 with the coast H1366 thereof.
19 And the LORD H3068 was H1961 with H854 Judah; H3063 and he drove out H3423 H853 the inhabitants of the mountain; H2022 but H3588 could not H3808 drive out H3423 H853 the inhabitants H3427 of the valley, H6010 because H3588 they had chariots H7393 of iron. H1270
20 And they gave H5414 H853 Hebron H2275 unto Caleb, H3612 as H834 Moses H4872 said: H1696 and he expelled H3423 thence H4480 H8033 H853 the three H7969 sons H1121 of Anak. H6061
21 And the children H1121 of Benjamin H1144 did not H3808 drive out H3423 the Jebusites H2983 that inhabited H3427 Jerusalem; H3389 but the Jebusites H2983 dwell H3427 with H854 the children H1121 of Benjamin H1144 in Jerusalem H3389 unto H5704 this H2088 day. H3117
22 And the house H1004 of Joseph, H3130 they H1992 also H1571 went up H5927 against Bethel: H1008 and the LORD H3068 was with H5973 them.
23 And the house H1004 of Joseph H3130 sent to descry H8446 Bethel. H1008 (Now the name H8034 of the city H5892 before H6440 was Luz. H3870 )
24 And the spies H8104 saw H7200 a man H376 come forth H3318 out of H4480 the city, H5892 and they said H559 unto him, Show H7200 us , we pray thee, H4994 H853 the entrance H3996 into the city, H5892 and we will show H6213 H5973 thee mercy. H2617
25 And when he showed H7200 them H853 the entrance H3996 into the city, H5892 they smote H5221 H853 the city H5892 with the edge H6310 of the sword; H2719 but they let go H7971 the man H376 and all H3605 his family. H4940
26 And the man H376 went H1980 into the land H776 of the Hittites, H2850 and built H1129 a city, H5892 and called H7121 the name H8034 thereof Luz: H3870 which H1931 is the name H8034 thereof unto H5704 this H2088 day. H3117
27 Neither H3808 did Manasseh H4519 drive out H3423 H853 the inhabitants of Beth- H1052 shean and her towns, H1323 nor Taanach H8590 and her towns, H1323 nor the inhabitants H3427 of Dor H1756 and her towns, H1323 nor the inhabitants H3427 of Ibleam H2991 and her towns, H1323 nor the inhabitants H3427 of Megiddo H4023 and her towns: H1323 but the Canaanites H3669 would H2974 dwell H3427 in that H2063 land. H776
28 And it came to pass, H1961 when H3588 Israel H3478 was strong, H2388 that they put H7760 H853 the Canaanites H3669 to tribute, H4522 and did not H3808 utterly drive them out H3423 H3423 .
29 Neither H3808 did Ephraim H669 drive out H3423 H853 the Canaanites H3669 that dwelt H3427 in Gezer; H1507 but the Canaanites H3669 dwelt H3427 in Gezer H1507 among H7130 them.
30 Neither H3808 did Zebulun H2074 drive out H3423 H853 the inhabitants H3427 of Kitron, H7003 nor the inhabitants H3427 of Nahalol; H5096 but the Canaanites H3669 dwelt H3427 among H7130 them , and became H1961 tributaries. H4522
31 Neither H3808 did Asher H836 drive out H3423 H853 the inhabitants H3427 of Accho, H5910 nor the inhabitants H3427 of Zidon, H6721 nor of Ahlab, H303 nor of Achzib, H392 nor of Helbah, H2462 nor of Aphik, H663 nor of Rehob: H7340
32 But the Asherites H843 dwelt H3427 among H7130 the Canaanites, H3669 the inhabitants H3427 of the land: H776 for H3588 they did not H3808 drive them out. H3423
33 Neither H3808 did Naphtali H5321 drive out H3423 H853 the inhabitants H3427 of Beth- H1053 shemesh , nor the inhabitants H3427 of Beth- H1043 anath ; but he dwelt H3427 among H7130 the Canaanites, H3669 the inhabitants H3427 of the land: H776 nevertheless the inhabitants H3427 of Beth- H1053 shemesh and of Beth- H1043 anath became H1961 tributaries H4522 unto them.
34 And the Amorites H567 forced H3905 H853 the children H1121 of Dan H1835 into the mountain: H2022 for H3588 they would not H3808 suffer H5414 them to come down H3381 to the valley: H6010
35 But the Amorites H567 would H2974 dwell H3427 in mount H2022 Heres H2776 in Aijalon, H357 and in Shaalbim: H8169 yet the hand H3027 of the house H1004 of Joseph H3130 prevailed, H3513 so that they became H1961 tributaries. H4522
36 And the coast H1366 of the Amorites H567 was from the going up H4480 H4608 to Akrabbim, H6137 from the rock H4480 H5553 , and upward. H4605
