Judges 1:1-3

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

1 After the death of Josue the children of Israel consulted the Lord, saying: Who shall go up before us against the Chanaanite, and shall be the leader of the war?

² And the Lord said: Juda shall go up: behold I have delivered the land into his hands.

³ And Juda said to Simeon his brother: Come up with me into my lot, and fight against the Chanaanite, that I also may go along with thee into thy lot. And Simeon went with him.
