LXX

Now after the death of Joshua it came to pass, that the children of Israel asked the Lord, saying, Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites first, to fight against them?

ΚΑΙ 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;

And the Lord said, Judah shall go up: behold, I have delivered the land into his hand.

Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος, Ἰούδας ἀναβήσεται· ἰδοὺ δέδωκα τὴν γῆν ἐν χειρὶ αὐτοῦ.

And Judah said unto Simeon his brother, Come up with me into my lot, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot. So Simeon went with him.

Καὶ εἶπεν Ἰούδας τῷ Συμεὼν ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ, ἀνάβηθι μετʼ ἐμοῦ ἐν τῷ κλήρῳ μου, καὶ παραταξώμεθα πρὸς τοὺς Χαναναίους, καὶ πορεύσομαι κᾀγὼ μετὰ σοῦ ἐν τῷ κλήρῳ σου· καὶ ἐπορεύθη μετʼ αὐτοῦ Συμεών.

And Judah went up; and the Lord delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand: and they slew of them in Bezek ten thousand men.

Καὶ ἀνέβη Ἰούδας· καὶ παρέδωκε Κύριος τὸν Χαναναῖον καὶ τὸν Φερεζαῖον εἰς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν· καὶ ἔκοψαν αὐτοὺς ἐν Βεζὲκ εἰς δέκα χιλιάδας ἀνδρῶν·

And they found Adoni–bezek in Bezek: and they fought against him, and they slew the Canaanites and the Perizzites.

Καὶ κατέλαβον τὸν Ἀδωνιβεζὲκ ἐν τῇ Βεζὲκ, καὶ παρετάξαντο πρὸς αὐτόν· καὶ ἔκοψαν τὸν Χαναναῖον καὶ Φερεζαῖον.

But Adoni–bezek fled; and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.

Καὶ ἔφυγεν Ἀδωνιβεζέκ· καὶ κατέδραμον ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐλάβοσαν αὐτὸν, καὶ ἀπέκοψαν τὰ ἄκρα τῶν χειρῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ ἄκρα τῶν ποδῶν αὐτοῦ.

And Adoni–bezek said, Threescore and ten kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered their meat under my table: as I have done, so God hath requited me. And they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.

Καὶ εἶπεν Ἀδωνιβεζὲκ, 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.

Now the children of Judah had fought against Jerusalem, and had taken it, and smitten it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.

Καὶ ἐπολέμουν υἱοὶ Ἰούδα τὴν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ κατελάβοντο αὐτὴν, καὶ ἐπάταξαν αὐτὴν ἐν στόματι ῥομφαίας, καὶ τὴν πόλιν ἐνέπρησαν ἐν πυρί.

And afterward the children of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites, that dwelt in the mountain, and in the south, and in the valley.

Καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα κατέβησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰούδα πολεμῆσαι πρὸς τὸν Χαναναῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα τὴν ὀρεινὴν καὶ τὸν Νότον καὶ τὴν πεδινήν.

And Judah went against the Canaanites that dwelt in Hebron: (now the name of Hebron before was Kirjath–arba:) and they slew Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.

Καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἰούδας πρὸς τὸν Χαναναῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐν Χεβρών· καὶ ἐξῆλθε Χεβρὼν ἐξ ἐναντίας· καὶ τὸ ὄνομα ἦν Χεβρὼν τὸ πρότερον Καριαθαρβοκσεφέρ· καὶ ἐπάτάξαν τὸν Σεσσὶ καὶ Ἀχιμὰν καὶ Θολμὶ γεννήματα τοῦ Ἐνάκ.

And from thence he went against the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjath–sepher:

Καὶ ἀνέβησαν ἐκεῖθεν πρὸς τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δαβίρ· τὸ δὲ ὄνομα τῆς Δαβὶρ ἦν ἔμπροσθεν Καριαθσεφὲρ, πόλις Γραμμάτων.

And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjath–sepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.

Καὶ εἶπε Χάλεβ, ὃς ἂν πατάξῃ τὴν πόλιν τῶν Γραμμάτων καὶ προκαταλάβηται αὐτὴν, δώσω αὐτῷ τὴν Ἀσχὰ θυγατέρα μου εἰς γυναῖκα.

And Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.

Καὶ προκατελάβετο αὐτὴν Γοθονιὴλ υἱὸς Κενὲζ ἀδελφοῦ Χάλεβ ὁ νεώτερος· καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ Χάλεβ τὴν Ἀσχὰ θυγατέρα αὐτοῦ εἰς γυναῖκα.

And it came to pass, when she came to him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted from off her ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wilt thou?

Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῇ εἰσόδῳ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐπέσεισεν αὐτὴν Γοθονιὴλ τοῦ αἰτῆσαι παρὰ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῆς ἀγρόν· καὶ ἐγόγγυζε καὶ ἔκραζεν ἀπὸ τοῦ ὑποζυγίου, εἰς γῆν Νότου ἐκδέδοσαί με· καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ Χάλεβ, τί ἐστί σοι;

And she said unto him, Give me a blessing: for thou hast given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the nether springs.

Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἀσχὰ, 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.

And the children of the Kenite, Moses’ father in law, went up out of the city of palm trees with the children of Judah into the wilderness of Judah, which lieth in the south of Arad; and they went and dwelt among the people.

Καὶ 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 Ἀρὰδ, καὶ κατῴκησαν μετὰ τοῦ λαοῦ.

And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they slew the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. And the name of the city was called Hormah.

Καὶ ἐπορεύθη Ἰούδας μετὰ Συμεὼν τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔκοψε τὸν Χαναναῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα Σεφὲθ, καὶ ἐξωλόθρευσαν αὐτους· καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα τῆς πόλεως, Ἀνάθεμα.

Also Judah took Gaza with the coast thereof, and Askelon with the coast thereof, and Ekron with the coast thereof.

Καὶ οὐκ ἐκληρονόμησεν Ἰούδας τὴν Γάζαν οὐδὲ τὰ ὅρια αὐτῆς, οὐδὲ τὴν Ἀσκάλωνα οὐδὲ τὰ ὅρια αὐτῆς, καὶ τὴν Ἀκκαρὼν οὐδὲ τὰ ὅρια αὐτῆς, τὴν Ἄζωτον οὐδὲ τὰ περισπόρια αὐτῆς.

And the Lord was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.

Καὶ ἦν Κύριος μετὰ Ἰούδα· καὶ ἐκληρονόμησε τὸ ὄρος, ὅτι οὐκ ἠδυνάσθησαν ἐξολοθρεῦσαι τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν κοιλάδα, ὅτι Ῥηχὰβ διεστείλατο αὐτοῖς.

And they gave Hebron unto Caleb, as Moses said: and he expelled thence the three sons of Anak.

Καὶ ἔδωκαν τῷ Χάλεβ τὴν Χεβρὼν, καθὼς ἐλάλησε Μωυσῆς· καὶ ἐκληρονόμησεν ἐκεῖθεν τὰς τρεῖς πόλεις τῶν υἱῶν Ἐνάκ.

And the children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites that inhabited Jerusalem; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem unto this day.

Καὶ 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.

And the house of Joseph, they also went up against Beth–el: and the Lord was with them.

Καὶ ἀνέβησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰωσὴφ καί γε αὐτοὶ εἰς Βαιθήλ· καὶ Κύριος ἦν μετʼ αὐτῶν.

And the house of Joseph sent to descry Beth–el. (Now the name of the city before was Luz.)

Καὶ παρενέβαλον, καὶ κατεσκέψαντο Βαιθήλ· τὸ δὲ ὄνομα τῆς πόλεως ἦν ἔμπροσθεν Λουζά.

And the spies saw a man come forth out of the city, and they said unto him, Shew us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we will shew thee mercy.

Καὶ εἶδον οἱ φυλάσσοντες, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ ἐξεπορεύετο ἐκ τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἔλαβον αὐτόν· καὶ εἶπον αὐτῷ, δεῖξον ἡμῖν τῆς πόλεως τὴν εἴσοδον, καὶ ποιήσομεν μετὰ σου ἔλεος.

And when he shewed them the entrance into the city, they smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let go the man and all his family.

Καὶ ἔδειξεν αὐτοῖς τὴν εἴσοδον τῆς πόλεως· καὶ ἐπάταξαν τὴν πόλιν ἐν στόματι ῥομφαίας· τὸν δὲ ἄνδρα καὶ τὴν συγγένειαν αὐτοῦ ἐξαπέστειλαν.

And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called the name thereof Luz: which is the name thereof unto this day.

Καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὁ ἀνὴρ εἰς γῆν Χεττίν· καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐκεῖ πόλιν, καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς Λουζά· τοῦτο ὄνομα αὐτῆς ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης.

Neither did Manasseh drive out the inhabitants of Beth–shean and her towns, nor Taanach and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Dor and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Ibleam and her towns, nor the inhabitants of Megiddo and her towns: but the Canaanites would dwell in that land.

Καὶ οὐκ ἐξῇρε Μανασσῆ τὴν Βαιθσὰν, 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.

And it came to pass, when Israel was strong, that they put the Canaanites to tribute, and did not utterly drive them out.

Καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε ἐνίσχυσεν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἐποίησε τὸν Χαναναῖον εἰς φόρον, καὶ ἐξαίρων οὐκ ἐξῇρεν αὐτόν.

Neither did Ephraim drive out the Canaanites that dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt in Gezer among them.

Καὶ Ἐφραὶμ οὐκ ἐξῇρε τὸν Χαναναῖον τὸν κατοικοῦντα ἐν Γαζέρ· καὶ κατῴκησεν ὁ Χαναναῖος ἐν μέσῳ αὐτοῦ ἐν Γαζὲρ, καὶ ἐγένετο εἰς φόρον.

Neither did Zebulun drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, nor the inhabitants of Nahalol; but the Canaanites dwelt among them, and became tributaries.

Καὶ Ζαβουλὼν οὐκ ἐξῇρε τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Κέδρων, οὐδὲ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δωμανά· καὶ κατῴκησεν ὁ Χαναναῖος ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῷ εἰς φόρον. Καὶ Ἀσὴρ οὐκ ἐξῇρε τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δωμανά· καὶ κατῴκησεν ὁ Χαναναῖος ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῷ εἰς φόρον.

Neither did Asher drive out the inhabitants of Accho, nor the inhabitants of Zidon, nor of Ahlab, nor of Achzib, nor of Helbah, nor of Aphik, nor of Rehob:

Καὶ Ἀσὴρ οὐκ ἐξῇρε τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Ἀκχὼ, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτῷ εἰς φόρον, καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δὼρ, καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Σιδῶνα, καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Δαλὰφ, τὸν Ἀσχαζὶ, καὶ τὸν Χεβδὰ, καὶ τὸν Ναῒ, καὶ τὸν Ἐρεώ.

But the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: for they did not drive them out.

Καὶ κατῴκησεν ὁ Ἀσὴρ ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ Χαναναίου τοῦ κατοικοῦντος τὴν γῆν, ὅτι οὐκ ἠδυνήθη ἐξάραι αὐτόν.

Neither did Naphtali drive out the inhabitants of Beth–shemesh, nor the inhabitants of Beth–anath; but he dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land: nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth–shemesh and of Beth–anath became tributaries unto them.

Καὶ Νεφθαλὶ οὐκ ἐξῇρε τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Βαιθσαμῦς, καὶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας Βαιθανάχ· καὶ κατῴκησε Νεφθαλὶ ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ Χαναναίου τοῦ κατοικοῦντος τὴν γῆν· οἱ δὲ κατοικοῦντες Βαιθσαμὺς καὶ τὴν Βαιθενὲθ, ἐγένοντο αὐτοῖς εἰς φόρον.

And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the mountain: for they would not suffer them to come down to the valley:

Καὶ ἐξέθλιψεν ὁ Ἀμοῤῥαῖος τοὺς υἱοὺς Δὰν εἰς τὸ ὄρος, ὅτι οὐκ ἀφῆκαν αὐτὸν καταβῆναι εἰς τὴν κοιλάδα.

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 tributaries.

Καὶ ἤρξατο ὁ Ἀμοῤῥαῖος κατοικεῖν ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ ὀστρακώδει, ἐν ᾧ αἱ ἅρκτοι καὶ ἐν ᾧ αἱ ἀλώπεκες, ἐν τῷ Μυρσινῶνι, καὶ ἐν Θαλαβίν, καὶ ἐβαρύνθη ἡ χεὶρ οἴκου Ἰωσὴφ ἐπὶ τὸν Ἀμοῤῥαῖον, καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτοῖς εἰς φόρον.

And the coast of the Amorites was from the going up to Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward.

Καὶ τὸ ὅριον τοῦ Ἀμοῤῥαίου ἀπὸ τῆς ἀναβάσεως Ἀκραβὶν ἀπὸ τῆς πέτρας καὶ ἐπάνω.
