And the menH376 of EphraimH669 gatheredH6817 themselves together, and wentH5674 northward,H6828 and saidH559 to Jephthah,H3316 WhyH4069 passedH5674 you overH5674 to fightH3898 against the childrenH1121 of Ammon,H5983 and did not callH7121 us to goH3212 with you? we will burnH8313 your houseH1004 on you with fire.H784
2
And JephthahH3316 saidH559 to them, I and my peopleH5971 were at greatH3966 strifeH7379 with the childrenH1121 of Ammon;H5983 and when I calledH2199 you, you deliveredH3467 me not out of their hands.H3027
3
And when I sawH7200 that you deliveredH3467 me not, I putH7760 my lifeH5315 in my hands,H3709 and passedH5674 overH5674 againstH413 the childrenH1121 of Ammon,H5983 and the LORDH3068 deliveredH5414 them into my hand:H3027 whyH4100 then are you comeH5927 up to me thisH2088 day,H3117 to fightH3898 against me?
4
Then JephthahH3316 gatheredH6908 together allH3605 the menH582 of Gilead,H1568 and foughtH3898 with Ephraim:H669 and the menH582 of GileadH1568 smoteH5221 Ephraim,H669 becauseH3588 they said,H559 You GileaditesH1569 are fugitivesH6412 of EphraimH669 amongH8432 the Ephraimites,H669 and amongH8432 the Manassites.H4519
5
And the GileaditesH1569 tookH3920 the passagesH4569 of JordanH3383 before the Ephraimites:H669 and it was so, that when those EphraimitesH669 which were escapedH6412 said,H559 Let me goH5674 over;H5674 that the menH582 of GileadH1568 saidH559 to him, Are you an Ephraimite?H673 If he said,H559 No;H3808
6
Then saidH559 they to him, SayH559 nowH4994 Shibboleth:H7641 and he saidH559 Sibboleth:H5451 for he could not frameH3559 to pronounceH1696 it right.H3651 Then they tookH270 him, and slewH7819 him atH413 the passagesH4569 of Jordan:H3383 and there fellH5307 at that timeH6256 of the EphraimitesH669 fortyH705 and twoH8147 thousand.H505

And he hadH1961 thirtyH7970 sons,H1121 and thirtyH7970 daughters,H1323 whom he sentH7971 abroad,H2351 and tookH935 in thirtyH7970 daughtersH1323 from abroadH2351 for his sons.H1121 And he judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 sevenH7651 years.H8141
10
Then diedH4191 Ibzan,H78 and was buriedH6912 at Bethlehem.H1035
11
And afterH310 him Elon,H356 a Zebulonite,H2075 judgedH8199 Israel;H3478 and he judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 tenH6235 years.H8141
12
