¹A stalo sa po smrti Jozuovej, že sa pýtali synovia Izraelovi Hospodina a riekli: Kto pojde napočiatku za nás hore ku Kananejovi, aby bojoval proti nemu?

¹And it cometh to pass, after the death of Joshua, that the sons of Israel ask at Jehovah, saying, `Who doth go up for us unto the Canaanite, at the commencement, to fight against it?`

²A Hospodin riekol: Júda pojde hore. Hľa, vydal som zem do jeho ruky.

²And Jehovah saith, `Judah doth go up; lo, I have given the land into his hand.`

³A Júda riekol Simeonovi, svojmu bratovi: Poď so mnou ta hore do môjho losu, aby sme bojovali proti Kananejovi, a potom pojdem i ja s tebou do tvojho losu. A Simeon išiel s ním.

³And Judah saith to Simeon his brother, `Go up with me into my lot, and we fight against the Canaanite — and I have gone, even I, with thee into thy lot;` and Simeon goeth with him.

⁴A tak odišiel Júda hore, a Hospodin vydal Kananeja a Ferezeja do ich ruky, a porazili ich v Bezeku, desať tisíc mužov.

⁴And Judah goeth up, and Jehovah giveth the Canaanite and the Perizzite into their hand, and they smite them in Bezek — ten thousand men;

⁵A našli Adoni-bezeka v Bezeku a bojovali proti nemu a porazili Kananeja i Ferezeja.

⁵and they find Adoni-Bezek in Bezek, and fight against him, and smite the Canaanite and the Perizzite.

⁶A keď utekal Adoni-bezek, honili ho a dochytiac ho poutínali mu palce na jeho rukách i na jeho nohách.

⁶And Adoni-Bezek fleeth, and they pursue after him, and seize him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes,

⁷Vtedy povedal Adoni-bezek: Sedemdesiati kráľovia s uťatými palci na svojich rukách i na svojich nohách sbierali odrobiny pod mojím stolom. Ako som robil, tak mi odplatil Bôh. Potom ho doviedli do Jeruzalema, a tam zomrel.

⁷and Adoni-Bezek saith, `Seventy kings — their thumbs and their great toes cut off — have been gathering under my table; as I have done so hath God repaid to me;` and they bring him in to Jerusalem, and he dieth there.

⁸A synovia Júdovi bojovali proti Jeruzalemu a zaujali ho a zbili ho ostrím meča a mesto podpálili.

⁸And the sons of Judah fight against Jerusalem, and capture it, and smite it by the mouth of the sword, and the city they have sent into fire;

⁹Potom sišli synovia Júdovi bojovať proti Kananejovi, ktorý býval na vrchoch a na juhu i na nížine.

⁹and afterwards have the sons of Judah gone down to fight against the Canaanite, inhabiting the hill-country, and the south, and the low country;

¹⁰A Júda odišiel ku Kananejovi, ktorý býval v Hebrone. A meno Hebrona bolo predtým Kirjat-arbe, a zabili Šešaja, Achimána a Talmaja.

¹⁰and Judah goeth unto the Canaanite who is dwelling in Hebron (and the name of Hebron formerly [is] Kirjath-Arba), and they smite Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.

¹¹Odtiaľ odišiel k obyvateľom Debíra. A meno Debíra bolo predtým Kirjat-sefer.

¹¹And he goeth thence unto the inhabitants of Debir (and the name of Debir formerly [is] Kirjath-Sepher),

¹²A Kálef povedal: Tomu, kto zbije Kirjat-sefer, a zaujme ho, dám Achsu, svoju dcéru, za ženu.

¹²and Caleb saith, `He who smiteth Kirjath-Sepher — and hath captured it — then I have given to him Achsah my daughter for a wife.`

¹³A zaujal ho Otniel, syn Kenaza, brata Kálefa, mladšieho od neho a dal mu Achsu, svoju dcéru, za ženu.

¹³And Othniel son of Kenaz, younger brother of Caleb, doth capture it, and he giveth to him Achsah his daughter for a wife.

¹⁴A stalo sa, keď prišla k nemu, že ho naviedla, aby žiadal od jej otca pole. Preto sosadla rýchle s osla, a Kálef jej povedal: Čo chceš?

¹⁴And it cometh to pass in her coming in, that she persuadeth him to ask from her father the field, and she lighteth from off the ass, and Caleb saith to her, `What — to thee?`

¹⁵A riekla mu: Daj mi požehnanie, lebo si mi dal zem na juhu; nuž daj mi aj pramene vôd. A tak jej dal Kálef horné pramene i dolné pramene.

¹⁵And she saith to him, `Give to me a blessing; when the south land thou hast given me — then thou hast given to me springs of water; and Caleb giveth to her the upper springs and the lower springs.

¹⁶A synovia Kéniho, švagra Mojžišovho, odišli hore z mesta paliem so synmi Júdovými na Judskú púšť, ktorá je na juhu Aráda, a odíduc bývali s tým ľudom.

¹⁶And the sons of the Kenite, father-in-law of Moses, have gone up out of the city of palms with the sons of Judah [to] the wilderness of Judah, which [is] in the south of Arad, and they go and dwell with the people.

¹⁷A Júda odišiel so Simeonom, svojím bratom, a pobili Kananeja, ktorý býval v Cefate, a zarieknuc ho na záhubu docela ho zahladili, mesto Cefat, a nazval meno toho mesta Chorma.

¹⁷And Judah goeth with Simeon his brother, and they smite the Canaanite inhabiting Zephath, and devote it; and [one] calleth the name of the city Hormah.

¹⁸A Júda zaujal Gazu a jej územie i Aškalon a jeho územie aj Ekron a jeho územie.

¹⁸And Judah captureth Gaza and its border, and Askelon and its border, and Ekron and its border;

¹⁹A Hospodin bol s Júdom, a tak vyhnal obyvateľov pohoria, lebo nemal smelosti vyhnať obyvateľov údolia, pretože mali železné vozy.

¹⁹and Jehovah is with Judah, and he occupieth the hill-country, but not to dispossess the inhabitants of the valley, for they have chariots of iron.

²⁰A dali Kálefovi Hebron, tak ako hovoril Mojžiš, a vyhnal odtiaľ troch synov Enákových.

²⁰And they give to Caleb Hebron, as Moses hath spoken, and he dispossesseth thence the three sons of Anak.

²¹Ale Jebuzeja, ktorý býval v Jeruzaleme, nevyhnali synovia Benjaminovi, a tak býval Jebuzej so synmi Benjaminovými v Jeruzaleme až do tohoto dňa.

²¹And the Jebusite, inhabiting Jerusalem, the sons of Benjamin have not dispossessed; and the Jebusite dwelleth with the sons of Benjamin, in Jerusalem, till this day.

²²A odišli aj dom Jozefov hore do Bét-ela, a Hospodin s nimi.

²²And the house of Joseph go up — even they — to Beth-El, and Jehovah [is] with them;

²³Lebo dom Jozefov dali prešpehovať Bét-el. A meno toho mesta bolo predtým Lúz.

²³and the house of Joseph cause [men] to spy about Beth-El (and the name of the city formerly is Luz),

²⁴A keď videli strážcovia muža, ktorý vychádzal z mesta, riekli mu: Ukáž nám, prosíme, kade sa vojde do mesta, a učiníme ti milosť.

²⁴and the watchers see a man coming out from the city, and say to him, `Shew us, we pray thee, the entrance of the city, and we have done with thee kindness.`

²⁵A ukázal im, kade sa vojde do mesta, a tak zbili mesto ostrím meča, a človeka i celú jeho čeľaď prepustili.

²⁵And he sheweth them the entrance of the city, and they smite the city by the mouth of the sword, and the man and all his family they have sent away;

²⁶A človek odišiel do zeme Hetejov, kde vystavil mesto a nazval jeho meno Lúz. To je jeho meno až do tohoto dňa.

²⁶and the man goeth to the land of the Hittites, and buildeth a city, and calleth its name Luz — it [is] its name unto this day.

²⁷A Manasses nevyhnal obyvateľov Bét-šeána a jeho mestečiek ani Tánacha a jeho mestečiek ani obyvateľov mesta Dóra a jeho mestečiek ani obyvateľov Jiblama a jeho mestečiek ani obyvateľov Megidda a jeho mestečiek, a preto volil Kananej bývať v tej zemi.

²⁷And Manasseh hath not occupied Beth-Shean and its towns, and Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, and the inhabitants of Iblaim and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns, and the Canaanite is desirous to dwell in that land;

²⁸Ale stalo sa, keď zosilnel Izrael, že uviedol Kananeja pod plat, ale vyhnať nevyhnal ho.

²⁸and it cometh to pass, when Israel hath been strong, that he setteth the Canaanite to tribute, and hath not utterly dispossessed it.

²⁹Ani Efraim nevyhnal Kananeja, ktorý býval v Gázere, a tak býva Kananej v jeho strede, v Gázere.

²⁹And Ephraim hath not dispossessed the Canaanite who is dwelling in Gezer, and the Canaanite dwelleth in its midst, in Gezer.

³⁰Zabulon nevyhnal obyvateľov Kitrona ani obyvateľov Nahalola, preto býva Kananej v jeho strede, a stali sa poplatnými.

³⁰Zebulun hath not dispossessed the inhabitants of Kitron, and the inhabitants of Nahalol, and the Canaanite dwelleth in its midst, and they become tributary.

³¹Aser nevyhnal obyvateľov mesta Akko ani obyvateľov Sidona ani Achlába ani Achzíba ani Chelby ani Afíka ani Rechoba.

³¹Asher hath not dispossessed the inhabitants of Accho, and the inhabitants of Zidon, and Ahlab, and Achzib, and Helbah, and Aphik, and Rehob;

³²A tak býva Aser v strede Kananeja, obyvateľov to zeme, pretože ho nevyhnal.

³²and the Asherite dwelleth in the midst of the Canaanite, the inhabitants of the land, for it hath not dispossessed them.

³³Naftali nevyhnal obyvateľov Bét-šemeša ani obyvateľov Bét-anata, a tak býva v strede Kananeja, v strede obyvateľov tej zeme, avšak obyvatelia Bét-šemeša a Bét-anata stali sa im poplatnými.

³³Naphtali hath not dispossessed the inhabitants of Beth-Shemesh, and the inhabitants of Beth-Anath, and he dwelleth in the midst of the Canaanite, the inhabitants of the land; and the inhabitants of Beth-Shemesh and of Beth-Anath have become tributary to them.

³⁴A Amoreji utiskovali synov Dánových vytískajúc ich na vrchy lebo im nedali sísť do údolia.

³⁴And the Amorites press the sons of Dan to the mountain, for they have not suffered them to go down to the valley;

³⁵A Amoreji volili bývať na vrchu Cherese, v Ajalone a v Šaalbíme. Ale keď nadobudla váhy ruka domu Jozefovho, stali sa poplatnými.

³⁵and the Amorite is desirous to dwell in mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim, and the hand of the house of Joseph is heavy, and they become tributary;

³⁶A územie Amorejovo bolo od svahu Akrabbím, od skaly a vyše.

³⁶and the border of the Amorite [is] from the ascent of Akrabbim, from the rock and upward.
