ἐγὼ δὲ δίδωμί σοι Σικιμα ἐξαίρετον ὑπὲρ τοὺς ἀδελφούς σου ἣν ἔλαβον ἐκ χειρὸς Αμορραίων ἐν μαχαίρᾳ μου καὶ τόξῳ
Do tibi partem unam extra fratres tuos , quam tuli de manu Amorrhaei in gladio et arcu meo .
ወናሁ ፡ እሁበከ ፡ ምህርካ ፡ ሠናየ ፡ ዘይኄይስ ፡ እምዘ ፡ አኀዊከ ፡ ዘነሣእኩ ፡ እምእዴሆሙ ፡ ለአሞሬዎን ፡ በቀስትየ ፡ ወበኵናትየ ።
Moreover I have given to you one portion above your brothers, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.”
