1After the death of Josue the children of Israel consulted the Lord, saying: Who shall go up before us against the Chanaanite, and shall be the leader of the war?
1ΚΑΙ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὴν τελευτὴν Ἰησοῦ καὶ ἐπηρώτων οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ διὰ τοῦ Κυρίου λέγοντες· τίς ἀναβήσεται ἡμῖν πρὸς τοὺς Χαναναίους ἀφηγούμενος τοῦ πολεμῆσαι πρὸς αὐτούς;
2And the Lord said: Juda shall go up: behold I have delivered the land into his hands.
2καὶ εἶπε Κύριος· Ἰούδας ἀναβήσεται. ἰδοὺ δέδωκα τὴν γῆν ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ.
3And Juda said to Simeon his brother: Come up with me into my lot, and fight against the Chanaanite, that I also may go along with thee into thy lot. And Simeon went with him.
3καὶ εἶπεν Ἰούδας τῷ Συμεὼν ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ· ἀνάβηθι μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ ἐν τῷ κλήρῳ μου, καὶ παραταξώμεθα πρὸς τοὺς Χαναναίους, καὶ πορεύσομαι κἀγὼ μετὰ σοῦ ἐν τῷ κλήρῳ σου. καὶ ἐπορεύθη μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ Συμεών.
4And Juda went up, and the Lord delivered the Chanaanite, and the Pherezite into their hands: and they slew of them in Bezec ten thousand men.
4καὶ ἀνέβη Ἰούδας, καὶ παρέδωκε Κύριος τὸν Χαναναῖον καὶ τὸν Φερεζαῖον εἰς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν. καὶ ἔκοψαν αὐτοὺς ἐν Βεζὰκ εἰς δέκα χιλιάδας ἀνδρῶν.
5And they found Adonibezec in Bezec, and fought against him, and they defeated the Chanaanite, and the Pherezite.
5καὶ κατέλαβον τὸν Ἀδωνιβεζὲκ ἐν τῇ Βεζὲκ καὶ παρετάξαντο πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ ἔκοψαν τὸν Χαναναῖον καὶ Φερεζαῖον.
6And Adonibezec fled: and they pursued after him and took him, and cut off his fingers and toes.
6καὶ ἔφυγεν Ἀδωνιβεζέκ, καὶ κατέδραμον ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλάβοσαν αὐτὸν καὶ ἀπέκοψαν τὰ ἄκρα τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ ἄκρα τῶ ποδῶν αὐτοῦ.
7And Adonibezec said: Seventy kings having their fingers and toes cut off, gathered up the leavings of the meat under my table: as I have done, so hath God requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
7καὶ εἶπεν Ἀδωνιβεζέκ· ἑβδομήκοντα βασιλεῖς τὰ ἄκρα τῶν χειρῶν αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ ἄκρα τῶν ποδῶν αὐτῶν ἀποκεκομμένοι ἦσαν συλλέγοντες τὰ ὑποκάτω τῆς τραπέζης μου· καθὼς οὖν ἐποίησα, οὕτως ἀνταπέδωκέ μοι ὁ Θεός. καὶ ἄγουσιν αὐτὸν εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ, καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἐκεῖ.
8And the children of Juda besieging Jerusalem, took it, and put it to the sword, and set the whole city on fire.
8Καὶ ἐπολέμουν υἱοὶ Ἰούδα τὴν Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ κατελάβοντο αὐτὴν καὶ ἐπάταξαν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι ρομφαίας καὶ τὴν πόλιν ἐνέπρησαν ἐν πυρί.
9And afterwards they went down and fought against the Chanaanite, who dwelt in the mountains, and in the south, and in the plains.
9καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα κατέβησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰούδα πολεμῆσαι πρὸς τὸν Χαναναῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα τὴν ὀρεινὴν καὶ τὸ νότιον καὶ τὴν πεδινήν.
10And Juda going forward against the Chanaanite, that dwelt in Hebron (the name whereof was in former times Cariath-Arbe) slew Sesai, and Ahiman, and Tholmai:
10καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἰούδας πρὸς τὸν Χαναναῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐν Χεβρών, καὶ ἐξῆλθε Χεβρὼν ἐξ ἐναντίας· καὶ τὸ ὄνομα ἦν Χεβρὼν τὸ πρότερον Καριαθαρβοκσεφέρ. καὶ ἐπάταξαν τὸν Σεσσὶ καὶ Ἀχιναὰν καὶ Θολμί, γεννήματα τοῦ Ἐνάκ.
11And departing from thence he went to the inhabitants of Dabir, the ancient name of which was Cariath-Sepher, that is, the city of letters.
11καὶ ἀνέβησαν ἐκεῖθεν πρὸς τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δαβίρ· τὸ δὲ ὄνομα τῆς Δαβὶρ ἦν ἔμπροσθεν Καριαθσεφάρ, Πόλις γραμμάτων.
12And Caleb said: He that shall take Cariath-Sepher, and lay it waste, to him will I give my daughter Axa to wife.
12καὶ εἶπε Χάλεβ· ὃς ἂν πατάξῃ τὴν Πόλιν τῶν γραμμάτων καὶ προκαταλάβηται αὐτήν, δώσω αὐτῷ τὴν Ἀσχὰ θυγατέρα μου εἰς γυναῖκα.
13And Othoniel the son of Cenez, the younger brother of Caleb, having taken it, he gave him Axa his daughter to wife.
13καὶ προκατελάβετο αὐτὴν Γοθονιὴλ υἱὸς Κενὲζ ἀδελφοῦ Χάλεβ ὁ νεώτερος, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ Χάλεβ τὴν Ἀσχὰ θυγατέρα αὐτοῦ εἰς γυναῖκα.
14And as she was going on her way her husband admonished her to ask a field of her father. And as she sighed sitting on her ass, Caleb said to her: What aileth thee?
14καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῇ εἰσόδῳ αὐτῆς καὶ ἐπέσεισεν αὐτὴν Γοθονιὴλ τοῦ αἰτῆσαι παρὰ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῆς ἀγρόν, καὶ ἐγόγγυζε καὶ ἔκραξεν ἀπὸ τοῦ ὑποζυγίου· εἰς γῆν νότου ἐκδέδοσαί με. καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ Χάλεβ· τί ἐστί σοι;
15But she answered: Give me a blessing, for thou hast given me a dry land: give me also a watery land. So Caleb gave her the upper and the nether watery ground.
15καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἀσχά· δὸς δή μοι εὐλογίαν, ὅτι εἰς γῆν νότου ἐκδέδοσαί με, καὶ δώσεις μοι λύτρωσιν ὕδατος. καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῇ Χάλεβ κατὰ τὴν καρδίαν αὐτῆς λύτρωσιν μετεώρων καὶ λύτρωσιν ταπεινῶν.
16And the children of the Cinite, the kinsman of Moses, went up from the city of palms, with the children of Juda into the wilderness of his lot, which is at the south side of Arad, and they dwelt with him.
16Καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰοθὸρ τοῦ Κιναίου τοῦ γαμβροῦ Μωυσῆ ἀνέβησαν ἐκ πόλεως τῶν φοινίκων μετὰ τῶν υἱῶν Ἰούδα εἰς τὴν ἔρημον τὴν οὖσαν ἐν τῷ νότῳ Ἰούδα, ἥ ἐστιν ἐπὶ καταβάσεως Ἀράδ, καὶ κατῴκησαν μετὰ τοῦ λαοῦ.
17And Juda went with Simeon his brother, and they together defeated the Chanaanites that dwelt in Sephaath, and slew them. And the name of the city was called Horma, that is, Anathema.
17καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἰούδας μετὰ Συμεὼν τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔκοψε τὸν Χαναναῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα Σεφέκ· καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσεν αὐτούς, καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα τῆς πόλεως Ἀνάθεμα.
18And Juda took Gaza with its confines, and Ascalon and Accaron with their confines.
18καὶ οὐκ ἐκληρονόμησεν Ἰούδας τὴν Γάζαν οὐδὲ τὰ ὅρια αὐτῆς, οὐδὲ τὴν Ἀσκάλωνα ουδὲ τὰ ὅρια αὐτῆς, οὐδὲ τὴν Ἀκκαρὼν οὐδὲ τὰ ὅρια αὐτῆς, τὴν Ἄζωτον οὐδὲ τὰ περισπόρια αὐτῆς.
19And the Lord was with Juda, and he possessed the hill country: but was not able to destroy the inhabitants of the valley, because they had many chariots armed with scythes.
19καὶ ἦν Κύριος μετὰ Ἰούδα καὶ ἐκληρονόμησε τὸ ὄρος, ὅτι οὐκ ἠδυνάσθησαν ἐξολοθρεῦσαι τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν κοιλάδα, ὅτι Ρηχὰβ διεστείλατο αὐτοῖς.
20And they gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses had said, who destroyed out of it the three sons of Enac.
20καὶ ἔδωκαν τῷ Χάλεβ τὴν Χεβρών, καθὼς ἐλάλησε Μωυσῆς, καὶ ἐκληρονόμησεν ἐκεῖθεν τὰς τρεῖς πόλεις τῶν υἱῶν Ἐνάκ.
21But the sons of Benjamin did not destroy the Jebusites that inhabited Jerusalem: and the Jebusite hath dwelt with the sons of Benjamin in Jerusalem until this present day.
21καὶ τὸν Ἰεβουσαῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ οὐκ ἐκληρονόμησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Βενιαμίν, καὶ κατῴκησεν ὁ Ἰεβουσαῖος μετὰ τῶν υἱῶν Βενιαμὶν ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης.
22The house of Joseph also went up against Bethel, and the Lord was with them.
22καὶ ἀνέβησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰωσὴφ καί γε αὐτοὶ εἰς Βαιθήλ, καὶ Κύριος ἦν μετ᾿ αὐτῶν.
23For when they were besieging the city, which before was called Luza,
23καὶ παρενέβαλον καὶ κατεσκέψαντο Βαιθήλ· τὸ δὲ ὄνομα τῆς πόλεως ἦν ἔμπροσθεν Λουζά.
24They saw a man coming out of the city, and they said to him: Shew us the entrance into the city, and we will shew thee mercy.
24καὶ εἶδον οἱ φυλάσσοντες, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ ἐξεπορεύετο ἐκ τῆς πόλεως· καὶ ἔλαβον αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπον αὐτῷ· δεῖξον ἡμῖν τῆς πόλεως τὴν εἴσοδον, καὶ ποιήσομεν μετὰ σοῦ ἔλεος.
25And when he had shewn them, they smote the city with the edge of the sword: but that man and all his kindred they let go:
25καὶ ἔδειξεν αὐτοῖς τὴν εἴσοδον τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἐπάταξαν τὴν πόλιν ἐν στόματι ρομφαίας, τὸν δὲ ἄνδρα καὶ τὴν συγγένειαν αὐτοῦ ἐξαπέστειλαν.
26Who being sent away, went into the land of Hethim, and built there a city, and called it Luza: which is so called until this day.
26καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὁ ἀνὴρ εἰς γῆν Χεττὶν καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐκεῖ πόλιν καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς Λουζά· τοῦτο ὄνομα αὐτῆς ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης.
27Manasses also did not destroy Bethsan, and Thanac with their villages, nor the inhabitants of Dor, and Jeblaam, and Mageddo with their villages. And the Chanaanite began to dwell with them.
27καὶ οὐκ ἐξῇρε Μανασσῆ τὴν Βαιθσάν, ἥ ἐστι Σκυθῶν πόλις, οὐδὲ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῆς οὐδὲ τὰ περίοικα αὐτῆς οὐδὲ τὴν Θανὰκ οὐδὲ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῆς, οὐδὲ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δὼρ οὐδὲ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῆς, οὐδὲ τὸν κατοικοῦντα Βαλὰκ οὐδὲ τὰ περίοικα αὐτῆς οὐδὲ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῆς, οὐδὲ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Μαγεδὼ οὐδὲ τὰ περίοικα αὐτῆς καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῆς, οὐδὲ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Ἰεβλαὰμ οὐδὲ τὰ περίοικα αὐτῆς οὐδὲ τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτῆς· καὶ ἤρξατο ὁ Χαναναῖος κατοικεῖν ἐν τῇ γῇ ταύτῃ.
28But after Israel was grown strong he made them tributaries, and would not destroy them.
28καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε ἐνίσχυσεν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἐποίησε τὸν Χαναναῖον εἰς φόρον καὶ ἐξαίρων οὐκ ἐξῇρεν αὐτόν.
29Ephraim also did not slay the Chanaanite that dwelt in Gazer, but dwelt with him.
29καὶ Ἐφραὶμ οὐκ ἐξῇρε τὸν Χαναναῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐν Γαζέρ· καὶ κατῴκησεν ὁ Χαναναῖος ἐν μέσῳ αὐτοῦ ἐν Γαζὲρ καὶ ἐγένετο εἰς φόρον.
30Zabulon destroyed not the inhabitants of Cetron, and Naalol: but the Chanaanite dwelt among them, and became their tributaries.
30καὶ Ζαβουλὼν οὐκ ἐξῇρε τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Κέδρων, οὐδὲ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δωμανά· καὶ κατῴκησεν ὁ Χαναναῖος ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῷ εἰς φόρον.
31Aser also destroyed not the inhabitants of Accho, and of Sidon, of Ahalab, and of Achazib, and of Helba, and of Aphec, and of Rohob:
31καὶ Ἀσὴρ οὐκ ἐξῇρε τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Ἀκχώ, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῷ εἰς φόρον, καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δὼρ καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Σιδῶνα καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Ἀαλάφ, τὸν Ἀσχαζὶ καὶ τὸν Χελβὰ καὶ τὸν Ναΐ καὶ τὸν Ἐρεώ.
32And he dwelt in the midst of the Chanaanites the inhabitants of that land, and did not slay them.
32καὶ κατῴκησεν ὁ Ἀσὴρ ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ Χαναναίου τοῦ κατοικοῦντος τὴν γῆν, ὅτι οὐκ ἠδυνήθη ἐξᾶραι αὐτόν.
33Nephtali also destroyed not the inhabitants of Bethsames, and of Bethanath: and he dwelt in the midst of the Chanaanites the inhabitants of the land, and the Bethsamites and Bethanites were tributaries to him.
33καὶ Νεφθαλὶ οὐκ ἐξῇρε τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Βαιθσαμὺς καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Βαιθανάθ, καὶ κατῴκησε Νεφθαλὶ ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ Χαναναίου τοῦ κατοικοῦντος τὴν γῆν· οἱ δὲ κατοικοῦντες Βαιθσαμὺς καὶ τὴν Βαιθενὲθ ἐγένοντο αὐτοῖς εἰς φόρον.
34And the Amorrhite straitened the children of Dan in the mountain, and gave them not place to go down to the plain:
34καὶ ἐξέθλιψεν ὁ Ἀμορραῖος τοὺς υἱοὺς Δὰν εἰς τὸ ὄρος, ὅτι οὐκ ἀφῆκαν αὐτὸν καταβῆναι εἰς τὴν κοιλάδα.
35And he dwelt in the mountain Hares, that is, of potsherds, in Aialon and Salebim. And the hand of the house of Joseph was heavy upon him, and he became tributary to him.
35καὶ ἤρξατο ὁ Ἀμορραῖος κατοικεῖν ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ ὀστρακώδει, ἐν ᾧ αἱ ἄρκοι καὶ ἐν ᾧ αἱ ἀλώπεκες, ἐν τῷ Μυρσινῶνι καὶ ἐν Θαλαβίν· καὶ ἐβαρύνθη ἡ χεὶρ οἴκου Ἰωσὴφ ἐπὶ τὸν Ἀμορραῖον, καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτοῖς εἰς φόρον.
36And the border of the Amorrhite was from the ascent of the scorpion, the rock, and the higher places.
36καὶ τὸ ὅριον τοῦ Ἀμορραίου ἀπὸ τῆς ἀναβάσεως Ἀκραβὶν ἀπὸ τῆς Πέτρας καὶ ἐπάνω.
