Judges 1:1-5

1And it came to pass after the deathH4194 of JoshuaH3091, that the children of IsraelH3478 askedH7592 of Jehovah, sayingH559, Who shall goH5927 up for us firstH8462 against the CanaanitesH3669, to fightH3898 against them?

2And Jehovah saidH559, JudahH3063 shall goH5927 up: behold, I have delivered the landH776 into his handH3027.

3And JudahH3063 saidH559 unto SimeonH8095 his brotherH251, ComeH1980 up with me into my lotH1486, that we may fightH3898 against the CanaanitesH3669; and I likewise will goH1980 with thee into thy lotH1486. So SimeonH8095 wentH1980 with him.

4And JudahH3063 wentH5927 up; and Jehovah delivered the CanaanitesH3669 and the Perizzites into their handH3027: and they smote of them in BezekH966 tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376.

5And they foundH4672 Adoni-bezekH137 in BezekH966; and they foughtH3898 against him, and they smote the CanaanitesH3669 and the Perizzites.
