6and they saidH559 unto JephthahH3316, ComeH1961 and be our chiefH7101, that we may fightH3898 with the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983.
7And JephthahH3316 saidH559 unto the eldersH2205 of GileadH1568, DidH834 notH3808 ye hateH8130 meH413, and driveH1644 meH413 outH1644 of my father’sH1 houseH1004? and whyH4069 are ye comeH935 unto meH413 nowH6258 when ye are in distressH6862?
