3And Judah said to Simeon, his brother, Go thou up with me in(to) my lot, and fight thou against Canaanites, that I go with thee in thy lot (or and then I shall go with thee into thy lot). And (so) Simeon went with him;
4and Judah went up (in the lead). And the Lord betook (the) Canaanites and Perizzites into their hands, and they killed in Bezek ten thousand men.
5And they found Adonibezek in Bezek, and they fought against him, and they overcame Canaanites, and Perizzites.
6And Adonibezek fled, whom they pursued, and took (hold of), and they cut off the ends of his hands and of his feet.
7And Adonibezek said, Seventy kings, when the ends of their hands and of their feet were cut away, gathered remnants of meats under my board (or gathered scraps of food under my table); as I have done, so God hath yielded to me. And they brought him into Jerusalem, and there he died.
8Then the sons of Judah fought against Jerusalem, and they took it, and they smote it by the sharpness of sword, and they betook all the city to burning. (Then the sons of Judah fought against Jerusalem, and they took it, and they struck down the people of Jerusalem with their sharp swords, and they burned down all the city.)
9And afterward they went down, and fought against Canaanites, that dwelled in the hilly places (or who lived in the hill country), and at the south, (and) in the wild fields.
10And Judah went against Canaanites, that dwelled in Hebron, whose name was by eld time Kiriatharba, (or And Judah went out against the Canaanites, who lived in Hebron, whose name in olden times was Kiriatharba); and Judah killed Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai.
11And from thence he went forth, and he came to the dwellers of Debir, whose eld name was Kiriathsepher, that is, the city of letters. (And from there he went forth, and he came to the inhabitants of Debir, whose old name was Kiriathsepher, that is, the City of Letters.)
12And Caleb said, I shall give Achsah, my daughter, (for a) wife to him that shall smite Kiriathsepher, and shall waste it.
