Judges 12:5-6

5And GileadH1568 tookH3920 the fords of the JordanH3383 before EphraimH669; and it came to passH5674 that when the fugitivesH6412 of EphraimH669 saidH559, Let me go over, the menH376 of GileadH1568 saidH559 to him, Art thou an Ephraimite? and he saidH559, No.

6Then they saidH559 to him, SayH559 now Shibboleth! and he saidH559, Sibboleth, and did not manage to pronounce [it] rightly. Then they took him, and slaughteredH7819 him at the fords of the JordanH3383. And there fellH5307 at that timeH6256 of EphraimH669 forty-two thousandH505.
