Judges 1

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	SAGRADA BIBLIA
1 After the death of Joshua the Israelites consulted the LORD, asking, "Who shall be first among us to attack the Canaanites and to do battle with them?"	1 Depois da morte de Josué, os israelitas consultaram o Senhor: Quem dentre nós será o primeiro a combater os cananeus?
2 The LORD answered, "Judah shall attack: I have delivered the land into his power."	2 O Senhor respondeu: Judá, pois eu entregarei a terra nas suas mãos.
3 Judah then said to his brother Simeon, "Come up with me into the territory allotted to me, and let us engage the Canaanites in battle. I will likewise accompany you into the territory allotted to you." So Simeon went with him.	3 Então Judá disse a Simeão, seu irmão: Vem comigo à terra que me coube por sorte, para combatermos contra os cananeus. Depois irei contigo à tua terra. Simeão partiu com ele.
4 When the forces of Judah attacked, the LORD delivered the Canaanites and Perizzites into their power, and they slew ten thousand of them in Bezek.	4 Judá travou combate e o Senhor entregou-lhe os cananeus e os ferezeus; derrotaram dez mil homens em Bezec.
5 It was in Bezek that they came upon Adonibezek and fought against him. When they defeated the Canaanites and Perizzites,	5 Ali encontraram Adoni-Bezec, atacaram-no e derrotaram os cananeus e os ferezeus.
6 Adonibezek fled. They set out in pursuit, and when they caught him, cut off his thumbs and his big toes.	6 Adoni-Bezec fugiu, mas eles o perseguiram, prenderam-no e cortaram-lhe os polegares das mãos e os hálux dos pés.
7 At this Adonibezek said, "Seventy kings, with their thumbs and big toes cut off, used to pick up scraps under my table. As I have done, so has God repaid me." He was brought to Jerusalem, and there he died.	7 Adoni-Bezec disse: Setenta reis, com os polegares das mãos e os hálux dos pés cortados, apanhavam debaixo de minha mesa os sobejos da comida. Como eu fiz, assim Deus me faz. E conduziram-no a Jerusalém, onde morreu.
8 (The Judahites fought against Jerusalem and captured it, putting it to the sword; then they destroyed the city by fire.)	8 Os juditas atacaram Jerusalém e tomaram-na. Passaram os seus habitantes ao fio da espada e incendiaram a cidade.
9 Afterward the Judahites went down to fight against the Canaanites who lived in the mountain region, in the Negeb, and in the foothills.	9 Desceram dali e combateram os cananeus das montanhas, do meio-dia e da planície.
10 Judah also marched against the Canaanites who dwelt in Hebron, which was formerly called Kiriath-arba, and defeated Sheshai, Ahiman and Talmai.	10 Judá marchou contra os cananeus de Hebron {chamada antigamente Cariat-Arbé}, e derrotou Sesai, Aimã e Tolmai.
11 From there they marched against the inhabitants of Debir, which was formerly called Kiriath-sepher.	11 Marchou depois contra os habitantes de Dabir, que antigamente se chamava Cariat-Sefer.
12 And Caleb said, "I will give my daughter Achsah in marriage to the one who attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it."	12 Caleb tinha dito: Àquele que combater e tomar Cariat-Sefer darei por mulher minha filha Axa.
13 Othniel, son of Caleb's younger brother Kenaz, captured it; so Caleb gave him his daughter Achsah in marriage.	13 Otoniel, filho de Cenez, irmão mais novo de Caleb, tomou a cidade; e Caleb deu-lhe sua filha Axa por mulher.
14 On the day of her marriage to Othniel she induced him to ask her father for some land. Then, as she alighted from the ass, Caleb asked her, "What is troubling you?"	14 Chegando Axa à casa de seu marido, ele moveu-a a que pedisse um campo ao seu pai. {E pela segunda vez} ela saltou de seu jumento, e Caleb disse-lhe: Que tens?
15 Give me an additional gift," she answered. "Since you have assigned land in the Negeb to me, give me also pools of water." So Caleb gave her the upper and the lower pool.	15 Dá-me, respondeu ela, um presente. Instalaste-me em uma terra árida; dá-me também fontes de água! E Caleb deu-lhe as fontes superiores e inferiores.
16 The descendants of the Kenite, Moses' father-in-law, came up with the Judahites from the city of palms to the desert at Arad (which is in the Negeb). But they later left and settled among the Amalekites.	16 Os filhos de Hobab, o quenita, cunhado de Moisés, subiram da cidade das Palmeiras com os juditas, no deserto de Judá, ao sul de Arad, e vieram estabelecer-se com o povo.
17 Judah then went with his brother Simeon, and they defeated the Canaanites who dwelt in Zephath. After having doomed the city to destruction, they renamed it Hormah.	17 Judá prosseguiu sua marcha com Simeão, seu irmão, e derrotaram os cananeus de Sefaat. Votaram a cidade ao interdito e ela recebeu o nome de Horma.
18 Judah, however, did not occupy Gaza with its territory, Ashkelon with its territory, or Ekron with its territory.	18 Judá tomou também Gaza e seu território, bem como Ascalon e Acaron com seus territórios.
19 Since the LORD was with Judah, he gained possession of the mountain region. Yet he could not dislodge those who lived on the plain, because they had iron chariots.	19 O Senhor estava com Judá, e ele conquistou a montanha; porém, não pôde despojar os habitantes da planície que possuíam carros de ferro.
20 As Moses had commanded, Hebron was given to Caleb, who then drove from it the three sons of Anak.	20 Conforme o que Moisés tinha dito, deram Hebron a Caleb, que expulsou dela os três filhos de Enac.
21 The Benjaminites did not dislodge the Jebusites who dwelt in Jerusalem, with the result that the Jebusites live in Jerusalem beside the Benjaminites to the present day.	21 Os benjaminitas não exterminaram os jebuseus de Jerusalém; por isso, os jebuseus habitaram em Jerusalém com os benjaminitas até o presente.
22 The house of Joseph, too, marched up against Bethel, and the LORD was with them.	22 A família de José marchou também contra Betel, e o Senhor esteve com eles.
23 The house of Joseph had a reconnaissance made of Bethel, which formerly was called Luz.	23 E quando exploravam Betel, que antes se chamava Luz,
24 The scouts saw a man coming out of the city and said to him, "Show us a way into the city, and we will spare you."	24 viram um homem que saía da cidade, e disseram-lhe: Mostra-nos por onde se pode entrar na cidade e usaremos de misericórdia contigo.
25 He showed them a way into the city, which they then put to the sword; but they let the man and his whole clan go free.	25 Ele indicou-lhes a entrada, e passaram a localidade ao fio da espada, poupando, porém, aquele homem com a sua família.
26 He then went to the land of the Hittites, where he built a city and called it Luz, as it is still called.	26 Este emigrou para a terra dos hiteus, onde construiu uma cidade, à qual pôs o nome de Luz, nome que ela conserva ainda hoje.
27 Manasseh did not take possession of Beth-shean with its towns or of Taanach with its towns. Neither did he dislodge the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, those of Ibleam and its towns, or those of Megiddo and its towns. The Canaanites kept their hold in this district.	27 Manassés não expulsou os habitantes de Betsã com suas aldeias, nem os de Tanac, de Dor, de Jeblaão, de Magedo, com suas aldeias, porque os cananeus estavam decididos a ocupar essa terra.
28 When the Israelites grew stronger, they impressed the Canaanites as laborers, but did not drive them out.	28 Quando se tornaram mais fortes, os israelitas fizeram-nos tributários, mas não os despojaram.
29 Similarly, the Ephraimites did not drive out the Canaanites living in Gezer, and so the Canaanites live in Gezer in their midst.	29 Efraim não expulsou os cananeus de Geser, os quais continuaram a habitar em Geser, no meio de Efraim.
30 Zebulun did not dislodge the inhabitants of Kitron or those of Nahalol; the Canaanites live among them, but have become forced laborers.	30 Zabulon não expulsou os habitantes de Cetron, nem os de Naalol; e os cananeus continuaram a habitar no meio de Zabulon, embora sujeitos ao tributo.
31 Nor did Asher drive out the inhabitants of Acco or those of Sidon, or take possession of Mahaleb, Achzib, Helbah, Aphik or Rehob.	31 Aser não expulsou os habitantes de Aco, nem os de Sidon, nem os de Aalab, de Acasib, de Helba, de Afec e de Roob;
32 The Asherites live among the Canaanite natives of the land, whom they have not dislodged.	32 os filhos de Aser estabeleceram-se entre os cananeus, habitantes daquela terra; não os despojaram.
33 Naphtali did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh or those of Beth-anath, and so they live among the Canaanite natives of the land. However, the inhabitants of Beth-shemesh and Beth-anath have become forced laborers for them.	33 Neftali não expulsou os habitantes de Bet-Sames, nem os de Bet-Anat, e estabeleceu-se entre os cananeus, habitantes daquela terra; os betsamitas e os betanitas ficaram-lhe tributários.
34 The Amorites hemmed in the Danites in the mountain region, not permitting them to go down into the plain.	34 Os amorreus repeliram os danitas para a montanha, e não os deixaram descer para a planície.
35 The Amorites had a firm hold in Harheres, Aijalon and Shaalbim, but as the house of Joseph gained the upper hand, they were impressed as laborers.	35 Persistiram em ficar em Har-Harés, em Ajalon e em Salebim; mas a mão da casa de José prevaleceu sobre eles, e tiveram de pagar o tributo.
36 The territory of the Amorites extended from the Akrabbim pass to Sela and beyond.	36 O território dos amorreus estendia-se desde a costa de Acrabim e de Sela, para o norte.
