1 Και μετά τον θάνατον του Ιησού, ηρώτησαν οι υιοί Ισραήλ τον Κύριον, λέγοντες, Τις θέλει αναβή υπέρ ημών πρώτος κατά των Χαναναίων, διά να πολεμήση αυτούς;
1 After the death of Joshua, the children of Israel asked of Yahweh, saying, “Who should go up for us first against the Canaanites, to fight against them?”
2 Και είπεν ο Κύριος, Ο Ιούδας θέλει αναβή· ιδού, παρέδωκα τον τόπον εις την χείρα αυτού.
2 Yahweh said, “Judah shall go up. Behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.”
3 Και είπεν ο Ιούδας προς Συμεών τον αδελφόν αυτού, Ανάβα μετ' εμού εις τον κλήρόν μου, διά να πολεμήσωμεν τους Χαναναίους, και εγώ ομοίως θέλω ελθεί μετά σου εις τον κλήρόν σου. Και υπήγε μετ' αυτού ο Συμεών.
3 Judah said to Simeon his brother, “Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with you into your lot.” So Simeon went with him.
4 Και ο Ιούδας ανέβη· και παρέδωκεν ο Κύριος τους Χαναναίους και τους Φερεζαίους εις την χείρα αυτών· και επάταξαν εξ αυτών εν Βεζέκ δέκα χιλιάδας ανδρών.
4 Judah went up, and Yahweh delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand. They struck ten thousand men in Bezek.
5 Και εύρηκαν τον Αδωνί-Βεζέκ εν Βεζέκ, και επολέμησαν αυτόν και επάταξαν τους Χαναναίους και τους Φερεζαίους.
5 They found Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and they fought against him. They struck the Canaanites and the Perizzites.
6 Ο δε Αδωνί-Βεζέκ έφυγε· και εκείνοι κατεδίωξαν οπίσω αυτού και συνέλαβον αυτόν και απέκοψαν τους μεγάλους δακτύλους των χειρών αυτού και των ποδών αυτού.
6 But Adoni-Bezek fled. They pursued him, caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his big toes.
7 Και είπεν ο Αδωνί-Βεζέκ, Εβδομήκοντα βασιλείς, αποκεκομμένοι τους μεγάλους δακτύλους των χειρών αυτών και των ποδών, εσύναζον τα πίπτοντα υποκάτω της τραπέζης μου· ως εγώ έκαμα, ούτως ανταπέδωκεν εις εμέ ο Θεός. Και έφεραν αυτόν εις Ιερουσαλήμ, και απέθανεν εκεί.
7 Adoni-Bezek said, “Seventy kings, having their thumbs and their big toes cut off, scavenged under my table. As I have done, so God has done to me.” They brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
8 Και οι υιοί Ιούδα επολέμησαν κατά της Ιερουσαλήμ και εκυρίευσαν αυτήν· και επάταξαν αυτήν εν στόματι μαχαίρας και την πόλιν παρέδωκαν εις πυρ.
8 The children of Judah fought against Jerusalem, took it, struck it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
9 Και μετά ταύτα κατέβησαν οι υιοί Ιούδα διά να πολεμήσωσι τους Χαναναίους, τους κατοικούντας εν τη ορεινή και εν τη μεσημβρινή και εν τη πεδινή.
9 After that, the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites who lived in the hill country, and in the South, and in the lowland.
10 Και υπήγεν ο Ιούδας εναντίον των Χαναναίων των κατοικούντων εν Χεβρών· το δε όνομα της Χεβρών ήτο πρότερον Κιριάθ-αρβά· και εθανάτωσαν τον Σεσαΐ, και τον Αχιμάν και τον Θαλμαΐ.
10 Judah went against the Canaanites who lived in Hebron. (The name of Hebron before that was Kiriath Arba.) They struck Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.
11 Και εκείθεν υπήγον εναντίον των κατοίκων της Δεβείρ· το δε όνομα της Δεβείρ ήτο πρότερον Κιριάθ-σεφέρ.
11 From there he went against the inhabitants of Debir. (The name of Debir before that was Kiriath Sepher.)
12 Και είπεν ο Χάλεβ, Όστις πατάξη την Κιριάθ-σεφέρ και κυριεύση αυτήν, εις τούτον θέλω δώσει Αχσάν την θυγατέρα μου εις γυναίκα.
12 Caleb said, “I will give Achsah my daughter as wife to the man who strikes Kiriath Sepher, and takes it.”
13 Και εκυρίευσεν αυτήν Γοθονιήλ ο υιός του Κενέζ, ο νεώτερος αδελφός του Χάλεβ· και έδωκεν εις αυτόν Αχσάν την θυγατέρα αυτού εις γυναίκα.
13 Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, took it, so he gave him Achsah his daughter as his wife.
14 Και αυτή, ότε απήρχετο, παρεκίνησεν αυτόν να ζητήση παρά του πατρός αυτής τον αγρόν· και κατέβη από του όνου· και είπε προς αυτήν ο Χάλεβ, τι θέλεις;
14 When she came, she got him to ask her father for a field. She got off her donkey; and Caleb said to her, “What would you like?”
15 Η δε είπε προς αυτόν, Δος μοι ευλογίαν· επειδή έδωκας εις εμέ γην μεσημβρινήν, δος μοι και πηγάς υδάτων. Και έδωκεν εις αυτήν ο Χάλεβ τας άνω πηγάς και τας κάτω πηγάς.
15 She said to him, “Give me a blessing; because you have set me in the land of the South, give me also springs of water.” Then Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
16 Και ανέβησαν οι υιοί του Κεναίου, πενθερού του Μωϋσέως, εκ της πόλεως των φοινίκων μετά των υιών Ιούδα εις την έρημον του Ιούδα, την προς μεσημβρίαν της Αράδ· και υπήγον και κατώκησαν μετά του λαού.
16 The children of the Kenite, Moses’ brother-in-law, went up out of the city of palm trees with the children of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which is in the south of Arad; and they went and lived with the people.
17 Και υπήγεν ο Ιούδας μετά του Συμεών αδελφού αυτού, και επάταξαν τους Χαναναίους τους κατοικούντας την Σεφάθ, και κατέστρεψαν αυτήν· και ωνόμασαν την πόλιν Ορμά.
17 Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they struck the Canaanites who inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. The name of the city was called Hormah.
18 Ο Ιούδας εκυρίευσε και την Γάζαν και τα όρια αυτής, και την Ασκαλώνα και τα όρια αυτής, και την Ακκαρών και τα όρια αυτής.
18 Also Judah took Gaza with its border, and Ashkelon with its border, and Ekron with its border.
19 Και ήτο Κύριος μετά του Ιούδα· και εκυρίευσε το όρος· αλλά δεν ηδυνήθη να εκδιώξη τους κατοίκους της κοιλάδος, διότι είχον αμάξας σιδηράς.
19 Yahweh was with Judah, and drove out the inhabitants of the hill country; for he could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
20 Και εδόθη η Χεβρών εις τον Χάλεβ, καθώς είπεν ο Μωϋσής· και εξεδίωξεν εκείθεν τους τρεις υιούς του Ανάκ.
20 They gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses had said, and he drove the three sons of Anak out of there.
21 Τον δε Ιεβουσαίον, τον κατοικούντα εν Ιερουσαλήμ, δεν εξεδίωξαν οι υιοί Βενιαμίν· διά τούτο ο Ιεβουσαίος κατώκησε μετά των υιών Βενιαμίν εν Ιερουσαλήμ έως της ημέρας ταύτης.
21 The children of Benjamin didn’t drive out the Jebusites who inhabited Jerusalem, but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.
22 Και ο οίκος Ιωσήφ ανέβησαν και αυτοί επί Βαιθήλ· και ο Κύριος ήτο μετ' αυτών.
22 The house of Joseph also went up against Bethel, and Yahweh was with them.
23 Και απέστειλεν ο οίκος Ιωσήφ να κατασκοπεύσωσι την Βαιθήλ· το δε όνομα της πόλεως ήτο πρότερον Λούζ.
23 The house of Joseph sent to spy out Bethel. (The name of the city before that was Luz.)
24 Και είδον οι κατάσκοποι άνθρωπον εξερχόμενον εκ της πόλεως, και είπον προς αυτόν, Δείξον εις ημάς, παρακαλούμεν, την είσοδον της πόλεως, και θέλομεν κάμει έλεος εις σε.
24 The watchers saw a man come out of the city, and they said to him, “Please show us the entrance into the city, and we will deal kindly with you.”
25 Και έδειξεν εις αυτούς την είσοδον της πόλεως, και επάταξαν την πόλιν εν στόματι μαχαίρας· τον δε άνθρωπον και πάσαν την συγγένειαν αυτού απέπεμψαν.
25 He showed them the entrance into the city, and they struck the city with the edge of the sword; but they let the man and all his family go.
26 Και υπήγεν ο άνθρωπος εις την γην των Χετταίων και ωκοδόμησε πόλιν, και ωνόμασεν αυτήν Λούζ· τούτο είναι το όνομα αυτής έως ημέρας ταύτης.
26 The man went into the land of the Hittites, built a city, and called its name Luz, which is its name to this day.
27 Ουδέ ο Μανασσής εξεδίωξε τους κατοίκους της Βαιθ-σαν και των κωμών αυτής, ούτε της Θαανάχ και των κωμών αυτής, ούτε τους κατοίκους της Δωρ και των κωμών αυτής, ούτε τους κατοίκους της Ιβλεάμ και των κωμών αυτής, ούτε τους κατοίκους της Μεγιδδώ και των κωμών αυτής· αλλ' οι Χαναναίοι επέμενον να κατοικώσιν εν τω τόπω εκείνω.
27 Manasseh didn’t drive out the inhabitants of Beth Shean and its towns, nor Taanach and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and its towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns; but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.
28 Και ότε κατεστάθη ο Ισραήλ δυνατός, υπέβαλε τους Χαναναίους εις φόρον και δεν εξεδίωξεν αυτούς ολοκλήρως.
28 When Israel had grown strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, and didn’t utterly drive them out.
29 Ουδέ ο Εφραΐμ εξεδίωξε τους Χαναναίους τους κατοικούντας εν Γεζέρ· αλλ' οι Χαναναίοι κατώκουν εν Γεζέρ μεταξύ αυτών.
29 Ephraim didn’t drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer, but the Canaanites lived in Gezer among them.
30 Ουδέ ο Ζαβουλών εξεδίωξε τους κατοικούντας την Κιτρών ουδέ τους κατοικούντας την Νααλώλ· αλλ' οι Χαναναίοι κατώκουν μεταξύ αυτών και έγειναν υποτελείς.
30 Zebulun didn’t drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites lived among them, and became subject to forced labor.
31 Ουδέ ο Ασήρ εξεδίωξε τους κατοίκους της Ακχώ, ούτε τους κατοίκους της Σιδώνος, ούτε της Ααλάβ, ούτε της Αχζίβ, ούτε της Χελβά, ούτε της Αφίκ, ούτε της Ρεώβ·
31 Asher didn’t drive out the inhabitants of Acco, nor the inhabitants of Sidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob;
32 αλλ' ο Ασήρ κατώκει μεταξύ των Χαναναίων των κατοίκων του τόπου· διότι δεν εξεδίωξεν αυτούς.
32 but the Asherites lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land, for they didn’t drive them out.
33 Ουδέ ο Νεφθαλί εξεδίωξε τους κατοίκους της Βαιθ-σεμές, ούτε τους κατοίκους της Βαιθ-ανάθ, αλλά κατώκει μεταξύ των Χαναναίων των κατοίκων του τόπου· οι δε κάτοικοι της Βαιθ-σεμές και της Βαιθ-ανάθ έγειναν υποτελείς εις αυτόν.
33 Naphtali didn’t drive out the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth Anath; but he lived among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land. Nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh and of Beth Anath became subject to forced labor.
34 Και συνέκλεισαν οι Αμορραίοι τους υιούς Δαν εις το όρος· διότι δεν άφινον αυτούς να καταβαίνωσιν εις την κοιλάδα·
34 The Amorites forced the children of Dan into the hill country, for they would not allow them to come down to the valley;
35 οι δε Αμορραίοι επέμενον να κατοικώσιν εν τω όρει Ερές, εις Αιαλών και εις Σααλβίμ· η χειρ όμως του οίκου Ιωσήφ υπερίσχυσεν, ώστε έγειναν υποτελείς.
35 but the Amorites would dwell in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim. Yet the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, so that they became subject to forced labor.
36 Το δε όριον την Αμορραίων ήτο από της αναβάσεως της Ακραββίμ, από της Πέτρας και επάνω.
36 The border of the Amorites was from the ascent of Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.
