Judges 11:7-11

7Then Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, “1Did you not hate me and drive me from my father’s house? So why have you come to me now when you are in trouble?” 8The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “For this reason we have now returned to you, that you may go with us and fight with the sons of Ammon and 2become head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.” 9So Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, “If you take me back to fight against the sons of Ammon and the Lord gives them up 3to me, will I become your head?” 10The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “4The Lord is 5witness between us; surely we will do 6as you have said.” 11Then Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and chief over them; and Jephthah spoke all his words before the Lord at 7Mizpah.
