Judges 1

1 After the death of Joshua, the Israelites inquired of the LORD, “Who will be the first to go up and fight for us against the Canaanites?”

1 约书亚去世以后，以色列人求问耶和华：“我们哪一个支派先上去攻打迦南人呢？”

2 “Judah shall go up,” answered the LORD. “Indeed, I have delivered the land into their hands.”

2 耶和华说：“犹大支派先去，我已把那片土地交在他们手中了。”

3 Then the men of Judah said to their brothers the Simeonites, “Come up with us to our allotted territory, and let us fight against the Canaanites. And we likewise will go with you to your territory.” So the Simeonites went with them.

3 犹大人对同胞西缅人说：“请跟我们一同到我们分得的地方攻打迦南人，我们也会同样帮助你们。”于是，西缅人便与犹大人同去。

4 When Judah attacked, the LORD delivered the Canaanites and Perizzites into their hands, and they struck down ten thousand men at Bezek.

4 犹大人上去攻打迦南人和比利洗人，耶和华使他们得胜，在比色杀了一万敌军。

5 And there they found Adoni-bezek and fought against him, striking down the Canaanites and Perizzites.

5 他们又在那里遇见亚多尼·比色，与他交战，打败了他带领的迦南人和比利洗人。

6 As Adoni-bezek fled, they pursued him, seized him, and cut off his thumbs and big toes.

6 亚多尼·比色逃跑，他们追上去擒住他，砍掉他的大拇指和大脚趾。

7 Then Adoni-bezek said, “Seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off have gathered the scraps under my table. As I have done to them, so God has repaid me.” And they brought him to Jerusalem, where he died.

7 亚多尼·比色说：“从前七十个王被我砍掉大拇指和大脚趾，在我桌下捡食物碎屑，现在上帝照我的行为报应我了。”他们把他带到耶路撒冷，他就死在那里。

8 Then the men of Judah fought against Jerusalem and captured it. They put the city to the sword and set it on fire.

8 犹大人攻陷耶路撒冷，用刀杀了城内的所有居民，并放火焚城。

9 Afterward, the men of Judah marched down to fight against the Canaanites living in the hill country, in the Negev, and in the foothills.

9 随后，他们下去攻打住在山区、南地和丘陵的迦南人，

10 Judah also marched against the Canaanites who were living in Hebron (formerly known as Kiriath-arba), and they struck down Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.

10 又进攻住在希伯仑的迦南人，杀了示筛、亚希幔和挞买。希伯仑从前叫基列·亚巴。

11 From there they marched against the inhabitants of Debir (formerly known as Kiriath-sepher).

11 他们从那里出兵攻打底璧，底璧从前叫基列·西弗。

12 And Caleb said, “To the man who strikes down Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give my daughter Acsah in marriage.”

12 迦勒说：“谁攻取基列·西弗，我就把女儿押撒嫁给他。”

13 So Othniel son of Caleb’s younger brother Kenaz captured the city, and Caleb gave his daughter Acsah to him in marriage.

13 迦勒的弟弟基纳斯的儿子俄陀聂攻取了那城，迦勒便把女儿押撒嫁给他。

14 One day Acsah came to Othniel and urged him to ask her father for a field. When she got off her donkey, Caleb asked her, “What do you desire?”

14 押撒出嫁的时候，劝丈夫向她父亲要一块田。她刚下驴，迦勒便问她：“你想要什么？”

15 “Give me a blessing,” she answered. “Since you have given me land in the Negev, give me springs of water as well.” So Caleb gave her both the upper and lower springs.

15 她回答说：“求你赐福给我，你既然把南地赐给我，求你也把水泉给我吧。”迦勒就把上泉和下泉都给了她。

16 Now the descendants of Moses’ father-in-law, the Kenite, went up with the men of Judah from the City of Palms to the Wilderness of Judah in the Negev near Arad. They went to live among the people.

16 摩西岳父的后代基尼人和犹大人一同离开棕树城 ，到犹大南部旷野的亚拉得附近，跟当地人一起居住。

17 Then the men of Judah went with their brothers the Simeonites, attacked the Canaanites living in Zephath, and devoted the city to destruction. So it was called Hormah.

17 之后，犹大人随同胞西缅人一起攻打洗法城内的迦南人，彻底毁灭了那城。因此那城叫何珥玛 。

18 And Judah also captured Gaza, Ashkelon, and Ekron—each with its territory.

18 犹大人又夺取了迦萨、亚实基伦和以革伦三座城邑及周围地区。

19 The LORD was with Judah, and they took possession of the hill country; but they could not drive out the inhabitants of the plains because they had chariots of iron.

19 耶和华与犹大人同在。他们攻占了山区，却没能赶走平原的居民，因为那里的人有铁战车。

20 Just as Moses had promised, Judah gave Hebron to Caleb, who drove out the descendants of the three sons of Anak.

20 照摩西的吩咐，迦勒得到了希伯仑。他把亚衲三族的人从那里赶走。

21 The Benjamites, however, failed to drive out the Jebusites living in Jerusalem. So to this day the Jebusites live there among the Benjamites.

21 便雅悯人没有赶走居住在耶路撒冷的耶布斯人，耶布斯人至今仍和他们住在一起。

22 The house of Joseph also attacked Bethel, and the LORD was with them.

22 约瑟家族也上去攻打伯特利，耶和华与他们同在。

23 They sent spies to Bethel (formerly known as Luz),

23 他们先派人去打探伯特利，那里从前名叫路斯。

24 and when the spies saw a man coming out of the city, they said to him, “Please show us how to get into the city, and we will treat you kindly.”

24 探子看见一个人从城里出来，就对他说：“请你告诉我们进城的路，我们必善待你。”

25 So the man showed them the entrance to the city, and they put the city to the sword but released that man and all his family.

25 那人便告诉他们进城的路，他们用刀杀了城内所有的居民，只放走了那人及其全家。

26 And the man went to the land of the Hittites, built a city, and called it Luz, which is its name to this day.

26 后来，那人搬到赫人的地方，筑了一座城，称之为路斯，沿用至今。

27 At that time Manasseh failed to drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shean, Taanach, Dor, Ibleam, Megiddo, and their villages; for the Canaanites were determined to dwell in that land.

27 玛拿西人没有赶走伯·善、他纳、多珥、以伯莲和米吉多众城邑及其周围村庄的居民，因为这些迦南人执意住在那里。

28 When Israel became stronger, they pressed the Canaanites into forced labor, but they never drove them out completely.

28 以色列人强盛时，就强迫他们服劳役，却没有全部赶走他们。

29 Ephraim also failed to drive out the Canaanites living in Gezer; so the Canaanites continued to dwell among them in Gezer.

29 以法莲人没有赶走住在基色的迦南人，这些迦南人仍然住在他们当中。

30 Zebulun failed to drive out the inhabitants of Kitron and Nahalol; so the Canaanites lived among them and served as forced laborers.

30 西布伦人没有赶走基伦和拿哈拉的居民，这些迦南人仍然住在他们当中，为他们服劳役。

31 Asher failed to drive out the inhabitants of Acco, Sidon, Ahlab, Achzib, Helbah, Aphik, and Rehob.

31 亚设人没有赶走亚柯、西顿、亚黑拉、亚革悉、黑巴、亚弗革和利合的居民。

32 So the Asherites lived among the Canaanite inhabitants of the land, because they did not drive them out.

32 亚设人因为没有赶出当地的迦南人，就住在他们当中。

33 Naphtali failed to drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath. So the Naphtalites also lived among the Canaanite inhabitants of the land, but the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath served them as forced laborers.

33 拿弗他利人没有赶走伯·示麦和伯·亚纳的居民，于是就住在这些迦南人当中，强迫他们服劳役。

34 The Amorites forced the Danites into the hill country and did not allow them to come down into the plain.

34 亚摩利人强迫但人住在山区，不准他们下到平原。

35 And the Amorites were determined to dwell in Mount Heres, Aijalon, and Shaalbim. But when the house of Joseph grew in strength, they pressed the Amorites into forced labor.

35 亚摩利人执意住在希烈山、亚雅仑和沙宾，但约瑟家族强盛时，就强迫他们服劳役。

36 And the border of the Amorites extended from the Ascent of Akrabbim to Sela and beyond.

36 亚摩利人的边界从亚克拉滨山坡起，一直到西拉以北。
