1And the menH376 of EphraimH669 gathered themselves togetherH6817, and wentH5674 northwardH6828, and saidH559 unto JephthahH3316, Wherefore passedst thou overH5674 to fightH3898 against the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and didst not callH7121 us to goH3212 with thee? we will burnH8313 thine houseH1004 upon thee with fireH784.1
2And JephthahH3316 saidH559 unto them, I and my peopleH5971 wereH1961 at greatH3966 strifeH7379H376 with the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983; and when I calledH2199 you, ye deliveredH3467 me not out of their handsH3027.
3And when I sawH7200 that ye deliveredH3467 me not, I putH7760 my lifeH5315 in my handsH3709, and passed overH5674 against the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, And YhwhH3068 deliveredH5414 them into my handH3027: wherefore then are ye come upH5927 unto me this dayH3117, to fightH3898 against me?
