Judges 12

1And the menH376 of EphraimH669 were gathered togetherH5973, and passedH5674 northwardH6828; and they saidH559 unto JephthahH3316, Wherefore passedst thou over to fightH3898 againstH5921 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and didst notH3808 callH7121 usH5921 to goH5674 with thee? we will burnH8313 thine houseH1004 uponH5921 thee with fireH784. 2And JephthahH3316 saidH559 unto them, I and my peopleH5971 were at greatH3966 strifeH7379 with the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983; and when I calledH2199 youH3808, ye savedH3467 meH413 notH3808 outH2199 of their handH3027. 3And when I sawH7200 that ye savedH3467 meH413 notH369, I putH5414 my lifeH5315 in my handH3027, and passedH5674 over againstH413 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and the LORDH3068 deliveredH5414 them intoH413 my handH3027: wherefore then are ye comeH5927 upH5927 unto meH413 this dayH3117, to fightH3898 againstH413 meH413? 4Then JephthahH3316 gatheredH6908 togetherH6908 allH3605 the menH376 of GileadH1568, and foughtH3898 with EphraimH669: and the menH376 of GileadH1568 smoteH5221 EphraimH669, becauseH3588 they saidH559, Ye are fugitivesH6412 of EphraimH669, ye GileaditesH1568, in the midstH8432 of EphraimH669, and in the midstH8432 of ManassehH4519. 5And the GileaditesH1568 tookH3920 the fords of JordanH3383 againstH376 the EphraimitesH669: and it was soH1961, that when anyH376 of the fugitivesH6412 of EphraimH669 saidH559, LetH1961 meH1961 goH1961 over, the menH376 of GileadH1568 saidH559 unto him, Art thou an EphraimiteH673? IfH3588 he saidH559, Nay; 6then saidH559 they unto him, SayH559 nowH4994 Shibboleth; and he saidH559 SibbolethH5451; for he couldH3559 notH3808 frame to pronounceH1696 it rightH3559; then they laid holdH270 on him, and slewH7819 him at the fords of JordanH3383: and there fellH5307 at that time of EphraimH669 fortyH705 and twoH8147 thousandH505. 7And JephthahH3316 judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 sixH8337 yearsH8141. Then diedH4191 JephthahH3316 the GileaditeH1569, and was buriedH6912 in one of the citiesH5892 of GileadH1568. 8And afterH310 him IbzanH78 of Beth-lehem judgedH8199 IsraelH3478. 9And he had thirtyH7970 sonsH1121, and thirtyH7970 daughtersH1323 he sentH7971 abroadH2351, and thirtyH7970 daughtersH1323 he broughtH935 in from abroadH2351 for his sonsH1121. And he judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 sevenH7651 yearsH8141. 10And IbzanH78 diedH4191, and was buriedH6912 at Beth-lehem. 11And afterH310 him ElonH356 the ZebuluniteH2075 judgedH8199 IsraelH3478; and he judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 tenH6235 yearsH8141. 12And Elon the ZebuluniteH2075 diedH4191, and was buriedH6912 in AijalonH357 in the landH776 of ZebulunH2074. 13And afterH310 him AbdonH5658 the sonH1121 of HillelH1985 the PirathoniteH6553 judgedH8199 IsraelH3478. 14And he had fortyH705 sonsH1121 and thirtyH7970 sons’H1121 sonsH1121, that rodeH7392 on threescore and ten ass coltsH1121: and he judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 eightH8083 yearsH8141. 15And AbdonH5658 the sonH1121 of HillelH1985 the PirathoniteH6553 diedH4191, and was buriedH6912 in PirathonH6552 in the landH776 of EphraimH669, in the hillH2022 countryH2022 of the AmalekitesH6003.
