1 After the death of Iosuah, it came to passe, that the childre of Israel asked the Lord, saying: who shall go vp for vs against the Chanaanites, to fight fyrste against them? 2 And the Lorde sayde, Iuda shall go vp: beholde, I haue deliuered the land into his handes. 3 And Iuda sayde vnto Simeon his brother: Come vp with me in my lot, that we may fight against the Chanaanites, and I likewyse will go with thee into thy lot. And so Simeon went with him. 4 And Iuda went vp, and the Lord deliuered the Chanaanites and Pherezites into their handes: And they slue of them in Bezek ten thousande men. 5 And they found Adonibezek in Bezek: And they fought against him, and slue the Chanaanites and Pherezites.
