*
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 ?
*
And the LORD said ,
Judah shall go up :
behold ,
I have delivered the land into his hand .
*
And Judah said unto Simeon his brother ,
Come up with me into my lot ,
that we may fight against the Canaanites K @
na #
aniy #;
and I likewise will go with thee into thy lot .
So Simeon went with him .
*
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 .
*
And they found Adonibezek #
Adoniy-Bezeq #
in Bezek :
and they fought against him ,
and they slew the Canaanites and the Perizzites .
*
But Adonibezek #
Adoniy-Bezeq #
fled ;
and they pursued after him ,
and caught him ,
and cut off his thumbs bohen #
and his great toes .
*
And Adonibezek #
Adoniy-Bezeq #
said ,
Threescore and ten kings ,
having their thumbs bohen #
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 .
