English Standard Version
Judges 1:2-7
2The Lord said, "Judah shall go up; behold, I have given the land into his hand."
3And Judah said to Simeon his brother, "Come up with me into the territory allotted to me, that we may fight against the Canaanites. And I likewise will go with you into the territory allotted to you." So Simeon went with him.
4Then Judah went up and the Lord gave the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand, and they defeated 10,000 of them at Bezek.
5They found Adoni-bezek at Bezek and fought against him and defeated the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
6Adoni-bezek fled, but they pursued him and caught him and cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
7And Adoni-bezek said, "Seventy kings with their thumbs and their big toes cut off used to pick up scraps under my table. As I have done, so God has repaid me." And they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
