Judges 1:4-21

4JudahH3063 wentH5927 upH5927, and 1the LordH3068 handedH5414H3027 overH5414 to them the CanaanitesH3669 and the PerizzitesH6522, and they 2defeatedH5221 tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376 at BezekH966. 5They foundH4672 Adoni-bezekH137 in BezekH966 and foughtH3898 against him, and they 3defeatedH5221 the CanaanitesH3669 and the PerizzitesH6522. 6But Adoni-bezekH137 fledH5127; and they pursuedH7291H310 him and caughtH270 him, and cutH7112 offH7112 his 4thumbsH931 and bigH931 toesH931H7272. 7And Adoni-bezekH137 saidH559, “SeventyH7657 kingsH4428 with their thumbsH931 and their bigH931 toesH931H7272 cutH7112 offH7112 used to gatherH3950 upH3950 scraps underH8478 my tableH7979; 5as I have doneH6213, soH3651 GodH430 has repaidH7999 me.” So they broughtH935 him to JerusalemH3389, and he diedH4191 thereH8033.

8Then the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 foughtH3898 against 6JerusalemH3389 and capturedH3920 it, and struckH5221 it with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719, and setH7971 the cityH5892 on fireH784. 9AfterwardH310, the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 wentH3381 downH3381 to fightH3898 against the CanaanitesH3669 livingH3427 in the hillH2022 countryH2022, and in the 7NegevH5045, and in the lowlandH8219. 108So JudahH3063 wentH1980 againstH413 the CanaanitesH3669 who livedH3427 in HebronH2275 (the nameH8034 of HebronH2275 was previouslyH6440 Kiriath-arbaH7153); and they struckH5221 SheshaiH8344, AhimanH289, and TalmaiH8526.

11Then 9from thereH8033 he wentH1980 againstH413 the inhabitantsH3427 of DebirH1688 (the nameH8034 of DebirH1688 was previouslyH6440 Kiriath-sepherH7158). 12And CalebH3612 saidH559, “WhoeverH834 attacksH5221 Kiriath-sepherH7158 and capturesH3920 it, I will giveH5414 him my daughterH1323 AchsahH5915 as a wifeH802.” 13Now 10OthnielH6274 the sonH1121 of KenazH7073, Caleb’sH3612 youngerH6996H4480 brotherH251, capturedH3920 it; so he gaveH5414 him his daughterH1323 AchsahH5915 as a wifeH802. 14Then 11it happenedH1961 that when she cameH935 to him, she incitedH5496 him to askH7592 her fatherH1 for a fieldH7704. Then later, she dismountedH6795 from 12her donkeyH2543, and CalebH3612 saidH559 to her, “WhatH4100 13do you want?” 15She saidH559 to him, “GiveH3051 me a blessingH1293: sinceH3588 you have givenH5414 me the landH776 of the 14NegevH5045, giveH5414 me springsH1543 of waterH4325 also.” So CalebH3612 gaveH5414 her the upperH5942 springsH1543 and the lowerH8482 springsH1543.

16Now the 15descendantsH1121 of 16the KeniteH7017, Moses’H4872 father-in-lawH2860, wentH5927 upH5927 from the 17cityH5892 of palmsH8558 with the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063, to the wildernessH4057 of JudahH3063 whichH834 is in the southH5045 of 18AradH6166; and they wentH1980 and livedH3427 with the peopleH5971. 17Then JudahH3063 wentH1980 with his brotherH251 SimeonH8095, and they struckH5221 the CanaanitesH3669 livingH3427 in ZephathH6857, and utterlyH2763 destroyedH2763 it. So the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 was calledH7121 19HormahH2767. 18And JudahH3063 tookH3920 20GazaH5804 with its territoryH1366, AshkelonH831 with its territoryH1366, and EkronH6138 with its territoryH1366. 19Now the LordH3068 was with JudahH3063, and they tookH3423 possessionH3423 of the hillH2022 countryH2022; but they could not 21driveH3423 outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of the valleyH6010, becauseH3588 they had 22ironH1270 chariotsH7393. 20Then they gaveH5414 HebronH2275 to CalebH3612, 23as MosesH4872 had 24promisedH1696; and he droveH3423 outH3423 from thereH8033 25the threeH7969 sonsH1121 of AnakH6061. 2126But the sonsH1121 of BenjaminH1144 did not driveH3423 outH3423 the 27JebusitesH2983 who livedH3427 in JerusalemH3389; so the JebusitesH2983 have livedH3427 with the sonsH1121 of BenjaminH1144 in JerusalemH3389 to thisH2088 dayH3117.
