Judges 11:8-11

8The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “For this reason we have now returned to you, that you may go with us and fight the sons of Ammon, and 1become our head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.” 9So Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, “If you bring me back to fight against the sons of Ammon and the Lord gives them up 2to me, will I become your head?” 10And the elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “3The Lord is 4witness between us; be assured we will do 5as you have said.” 11Then Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and leader over them; and Jephthah spoke all his words before the Lord at 6Mizpah.
