1 And the men 376 of Ephraim 669 gathered themselves together 6817, and went 5674 northward 6828, and said 559 unto Jephthah 3316, Wherefore passedst thou over 5674 to fight 3898 against the children 1121 of Ammon 5983, and didst not call 7121 us to go 3212 with thee? we will burn 8313 thine house 1004 upon thee with fire 784.
2 And Jephthah 3316 said 559 unto them, I and my people 5971 were 1961 at great 3966 strife 376 7379 with the children 1121 of Ammon 5983; and when I called 2199 you, ye delivered 3467 me not out of their hands 3027.
3 And when I saw 7200 that ye delivered 3467 me not, I put 7760 my life 5315 in my hands 3709, and passed over 5674 against the children 1121 of Ammon 5983, and the LORD 3068 delivered 5414 them into my hand 3027: wherefore then are ye come up 5927 unto me this day 3117, to fight 3898 against me?
4 Then Jephthah 3316 gathered together 6908 all the men 582 of Gilead 1568, and fought 3898 with Ephraim 669: and the men 582 of Gilead 1568 smote 5221 Ephraim 669, because they said 559, Ye Gileadites 1568 are fugitives 6412 of Ephraim 669 among 8432 the Ephraimites 669, and among 8432 the Manassites 4519.
5 And the Gileadites 1568 took 3920 the passages 4569 of Jordan 3383 before the Ephraimites 669: and it was so, that when those Ephraimites 669 which were escaped 6412 said 559, Let me go over 5674; that the men 582 of Gilead 1568 said 559 unto him, Art thou an Ephraimite 673? If he said 559, Nay;
6 Then said 559 they unto him, Say 559 now Shibboleth 7641: and he said 559 Sibboleth 5451: for he could not frame 3559 0 to pronounce 1696 it right 3559. Then they took 270 him, and slew 7819 him at the passages 4569 of Jordan 3383: and there fell 5307 at that time 6256 of the Ephraimites 669 forty 705 and two 8147 thousand 505.
7 And Jephthah 3316 judged 8199 Israel 3478 six 8337 years 8141. Then died 4191 Jephthah 3316 the Gileadite 1569, and was buried 6912 in one of the cities 5892 of Gilead 1568.
8 And after 310 him Ibzan 78 of Bethlehem 1035 judged 8199 Israel 3478.
9 And he had thirty 7970 sons 1121, and thirty 7970 daughters 1323, whom he sent 7971 abroad 2351, and took 935 in thirty 7970 daughters 1323 from abroad 2351 for his sons 1121. And he judged 8199 Israel 3478 seven 7651 years 8141.
10 Then died 4191 Ibzan 78, and was buried 6912 at Bethlehem 1035.
11 And after 310 him Elon 356, a Zebulonite 2075, judged 8199 Israel 3478; and he judged 8199 Israel 3478 ten 6235 years 8141.
12 And Elon 356 the Zebulonite 2075 died 4191, and was buried 6912 in Aijalon 357 in the country 776 of Zebulun 2074.
13 And after 310 him Abdon 5658 the son 1121 of Hillel 1985, a Pirathonite 6553, judged 8199 Israel 3478.
14 And he had forty 705 sons 1121 and thirty 7970 nephews 1121 1121, that rode 7392 on threescore and ten 7657 ass colts 5895: and he judged 8199 Israel 3478 eight 8083 years 8141.
15 And Abdon 5658 the son 1121 of Hillel 1985 the Pirathonite 6553 died 4191, and was buried 6912 in Pirathon 6552 in the land 776 of Ephraim 669, in the mount 2022 of the Amalekites 6003.
