12 G2532 And G649 Jephthah sent G* G32 messengers G4314 to G935 the king G5207 of the sons G* of Ammon, G3004 saying, G5100 What G1473 is it to me G2532 and G1473 to you, G3754 that G2240 you come G4314 to G1473 me G3588 G4170 to wage war G1722 in G3588 G1093 my land? G1473

13 G2532 And G2036 [⁴said G935 ¹ the king G5207 ²of the sons G* ³of Ammon] G4314 to G3588 the G32 messengers G* of Jephthah, G3754 Because G2983 Israel took G* G3588 G1093 my land G1473 G1722 in G3588 G306.1 their ascending G1473 G1537 from out of G* Egypt, G575 from G* Arnon G2193 unto G* Jabok, G2532 and G2193 unto G3588 the G* Jordan.

14 G2532 And G4369 [²added G2089 ¹Jephthah again], G* G2532 and G649 he sent G32 messengers G4314 to G3588 the G935 king G5207 of the sons G* of Ammon.

15 G2532 And G2036 they said G1473 to him, G3592 Thus G3004 says G* Jephthah, G3756 [²did not G2983 ³take G* ¹Israel] G3588 the G1093 land G* of Moab, G2532 and G3588 the G1093 land G5207 of the sons G* of Ammon.

16 G1722 In G3588 G306.1 their ascending G* G1537 from out of G* Egypt, G235 it is that G4198 Israel went G* G1722 in G3588 the G2048 wilderness G2193 unto G2281 [²sea G2063 ¹ the red], G2532 and G2064 came G2193 to G* Kadesh.

18 G2532 And G1330 Israel went through G1722 in G3588 the G2048 wilderness, G2532 and G2944 encircled G3588 the G1093 land G* of Edom G2532 and G3588 the G1093 land G* of Moab.

19 G2532 And G649 [²sent G32 ³messengers G* ¹Israel] G4314 to G* Sihon G935 king G3588 of the G* Amorites, G935 king G* of Heshbon. G2532 And G2036 [²said G1473 ³to him G* ¹Israel], G3928 I shall go by G1223 through G3588 G1093 your land G1473 G2193 unto G3588 G5117 my place. G1473

20 G2532 And G3756 [²did not G2309 ³want G* ¹Sihon] G3588 G* Israel G1330 to go G1223 through G3588 G3725 his borders. G1473 G2532 And G4863 Sihon gathered G* G3956 all G3588 G2992 his people, G1473 G2532 and G3924.2 they camped G1519 at G* Jahaz, G2532 and G4170 he waged war G3326 with G* Israel.

21 G2532 And G3860 [⁴delivered up G2962 ¹ the lord G3588 G2316 ²God G* ³of Israel] G3588 G* Sihon G2532 and G3956 all G3588 G2992 his people G1473 G1722 into G5495 the hand G* of Israel, G2532 and G3960 they struck G1473 them, G2532 and G2816 Israel inherited G* G3956 all G3588 the G1093 land G3588 of the G* Amorites G3588 G2730 dwelling G1722 in G3588 G1093 that land. G1565

22 G2532 And G2816 Israel inherited G3956 all G3588 the G3725 border G3588 of the G* Amorites, G575 from G* Arnon G2532 and G2193 unto G3588 the G* Jabok, G2532 and G575 from G3588 the G2048 wilderness G2193 unto G3588 the G* Jordan.

23 G2532 And G3568 now G2962 the lord G3588 G2316 God G* of Israel G1808 lifted away G3588 the G* Amorite G1537 from G4383 the face G2992 of his people G1473 G* Israel, G2532 and G1473 you, G2816 shall you inherit G1473 it?

24 G3780 Is it not that G3745 as much as G2624.1 [³allots G1473 ⁴to you G* ¹Chemosh G3588 G2316 ²your god], G1473 G1473 them G2624.1 you will inherit?

26 G1722 In G3588 the G3611 living G* of Israel G1722 in G* Heshbon, G2532 and G1722 in G3588 G2364 her daughter cities, G1473 G2532 and G1722 in G* Aroer, G2532 and G1722 in G3588 G2364 her daughter cities, G2532 and G1722 in G3956 all G3588 the G4172 cities G3588 G3844 by G3588 the G* Jordan G5145 for three hundred G2094 years -- G5100 Why G3754 is it that G3756 you did not G4506 rescue G1473 them G1722 in G3588 G2540 that time? G1565

27 G2504 And I G3756 sinned not G264 G1473 against you, G2532 but G1473 you G4160 do G3326 [²with G1473 ³me G4189 ¹wickedness] G3588 G4170 to wage war G1722 against G1473 me. G2919 May the lord judge, G2962 G3588 the G2919 one judging G4594 today, G303.1 between G5207 the sons G* of Israel G2532 and G303.1 between G5207 the sons G* of Ammon.

28 G2532 And G3756 [⁴would not G1522 ⁵hearken to G935 ¹ the king G5207 ²of the sons G* ³of Ammon] G3588 the G3056 words G* of Jephthah G3739 which G649 he sent G4314 to G1473 him.

29 G2532 And G1096 [³became G1909 ⁴upon G* ⁵Jephthah G4151 ¹spirit G2962 ² of the lord], G2532 and G1224 he passed over G3588 G* Gilead, G2532 and G3588 G* Manasseh, G2532 and G1224 he passed over G3588 the G4648.1 height G* of Gilead, G2532 and G575 from G4648.1 the height G* of Gilead G1519 to G3588 the G4008 other side G5207 of the sons G* of Ammon.

30 G2532 And G2172 Jephthah vowed G* G2171 a vow G3588 to the G2962 lord, G2532 and G2036 he said, G1437 If G3862 by delivering up G3860 you should deliver up G3588 the G5207 sons G* of Ammon G1722 in G5495 my hand, G1473

31 G2532 then G1510.8.3 it will be G3588 concerning the one G1607 going forth, G3739 who G302 ever G1831 might come G1537 from G3588 the G2374 doors G3588 G3624 of my house G1473 G1519 for G529 meeting G1473 me G1722 in G3588 G1994 my returning G1473 G1722 in G1515 peace G575 from G3588 the G5207 sons G* of Ammon, G2532 that G1510.8.3 it will be G3588 to the G2962 lord, G2532 and G399 I will offer G1473 him G3646 a whole burnt-offering.

32 G2532 And G1224 Jephthah passed over G* G4314 to G5207 the sons G* of Ammon G3588 G4170 to wage war G4314 against G1473 them. G2532 And G3860 [²delivered G1473 ³them G2962 ¹ the lord] G1722 into G5495 his hand. G1473

33 G2532 And G3960 he struck G1473 them G575 from G* Aroer G2532 even G2193 unto G3588 the G2064 coming G* to Minnith -- G1501 twenty G4172 cities, G2532 and G2193 unto G* the Abel G290 vineyards, G4127 [³beating G3173 ²great G4970 ¹an exceedingly].

12 H3316 And Jephthah H7971 [H8799] sent H4397 messengers H4428 to the king H1121 of the sons H5983 of Ammon, H559 [H8800] saying, H935 [H8804] What hast thou to do with me, that thou hast come H3898 [H8736] against me to fight H776 in my land?

13 H4428 And the king H1121 of the sons H5983 of Ammon H559 [H8799] answered H4397 to the messengers H3316 of Jephthah, H3478 Because Israel H3947 [H8804] took away H776 my land, H5927 [H8800] when they came H4714 out of Egypt, H769 from Arnon H2999 even to Jabbok, H3383 and to Jordan: H7725 [H8685] now therefore restore those lands again H7965 peaceably.

14 H3316 And Jephthah H7971 [H8799] sent H4397 messengers H3254 [H8686] again H4428 to the king H1121 of the sons H5983 of Ammon:

15 H559 [H8799] And said H559 [H8804] to him, Thus saith H3316 Jephthah, H3478 Israel H3947 [H8804] took not away H776 the land H4124 of Moab, H776 nor the land H1121 of the sons H5983 of Ammon:

16 H3478 But when Israel H5927 [H8800] came up H4714 from Egypt, H3212 [H8799] and walked H4057 through the wilderness H5488 to the Red H3220 sea, H935 [H8799] and came H6946 to Kadesh;

17 H3478 Then Israel H7971 [H8799] sent H4397 messengers H4428 to the king H123 of Edom, H559 [H8800] saying, H5674 [H8799] Let me, I pray thee, pass through H776 thy land: H4428 but the king H123 of Edom H8085 [H8804] would not hearken H7971 [H8804] to it. And in like manner they sent H4428 to the king H4124 of Moab: H14 [H8804] but he would H3478 not consent: and Israel H3427 [H8799] abode H6946 in Kadesh.

18 H3212 [H8799] Then they went along H4057 through the wilderness, H5437 [H8799] and went around H776 the land H123 of Edom, H776 and the land H4124 of Moab, H935 [H8799] and came H4217 H8121 by the east side H776 of the land H4124 of Moab, H2583 [H8799] and encamped H5676 on the other side H769 of Arnon, H935 [H8804] but came H1366 not within the border H4124 of Moab: H769 for Arnon H1366 was the border H4124 of Moab.

19 H3478 And Israel H7971 [H8799] sent H4397 messengers H5511 to Sihon H4428 king H567 of the Amorites, H4428 the king H2809 of Heshbon; H3478 and Israel H559 [H8799] said H5674 [H8799] to him, Let us pass, H776 we pray thee, through thy land H5704 to H4725 my place.

20 H5511 But Sihon H539 [H8689] trusted H3478 not Israel H5674 [H8800] to pass H1366 through his land: H5511 but Sihon H622 0 gathered H5971 all his people H622 [H8799] together, H2583 [H8799] and encamped H3096 in Jahaz, H3898 [H8735] and fought H3478 against Israel.

21 H3068 And the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H5414 [H8799] gave H5511 Sihon H5971 and all his people H3027 into the hand H3478 of Israel, H5221 [H8686] and they smote H3478 them: so Israel H3423 [H8799] possessed H776 all the land H567 of the Amorites, H3427 [H8802] the inhabitants H776 of that land.

22 H3423 [H8799] And they possessed H1366 all the land H567 of the Amorites, H769 from Arnon H2999 even to Jabbok, H4057 and from the wilderness H3383 even to Jordan.

23 H3068 So now the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H3423 [H8689] hath dispossessed H567 the Amorites H6440 from the face of H5971 his people H3478 Israel, H3423 [H8799] and shouldest thou possess it?

24 H3423 [H8799] Wilt not thou possess H3645 that which Chemosh H430 thy god H3423 [H8686] giveth thee to possess? H3068 So whomever the LORD H430 our God H3423 [H8689] shall drive out H6440 from the face of H3423 [H8799] us, them will we possess.

25 H2896 And now art thou any thing better H1111 than Balak H1121 the son H6834 of Zippor, H4428 king H4124 of Moab? H7378 [H8800] did he ever H7378 [H8804] strive H3478 against Israel, H3898 [H8736] or did he ever H3898 [H8738] fight against them,

26 H3478 While Israel H3427 [H8800] dwelt H2809 in Heshbon H1323 and her towns, H6177 and in Aroer H1323 and her towns, H5892 and in all the cities H3027 that are along by the banks H769 of Arnon, H7969 three H3967 hundred H8141 years? H5337 [H8689] why therefore did ye not recover H6256 them within that time?

27 H2398 [H8804] Therefore I have not sinned H6213 H853 [H8802] against thee, but thou doest H7451 me wrong H3898 [H8736] to war H3068 against me: the LORD H8199 [H8802] the Judge H8199 [H8799] be judge H3117 this day H1121 between the sons H3478 of Israel H1121 and the sons H5983 of Ammon.

28 H4428 But the king H1121 of the sons H5983 of Ammon H8085 [H8804] hearkened H1697 not to the words H3316 of Jephthah H7971 [H8804] which he sent him.

29 H7307 Then the Spirit H3068 of the LORD H3316 came upon Jephthah, H5674 [H8799] and he passed over H1568 Gilead, H4519 and Manasseh, H5674 [H8799] and passed over H4708 Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead, H4708 and from Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead H5674 [H8804] he passed over H1121 to the sons H5983 of Ammon.

30 H3316 And Jephthah H5087 [H8799] vowed H5088 a vow H3068 to the LORD, H559 [H8799] and said, H5414 [H8800] If thou shalt without fail H5414 [H8799] give H1121 the sons H5983 of Ammon H3027 into my hands,

31 H3318 [H8802] Then it shall be, that whatever H3318 [H8799] cometh out H1817 of the doors H1004 of my house H7125 [H8800] to meet H7725 [H8800] me, when I return H7965 in peace H1121 from the sons H5983 of Ammon, H3068 shall surely be the LORD'S, H5927 [H8689] and I will offer it H5930 for a burnt offering.

32 H3316 So Jephthah H5674 [H8799] passed over H1121 to the sons H5983 of Ammon H3898 [H8736] to fight H3068 against them; and the LORD H5414 [H8799] gave H3027 them into his hands.

33 H5221 [H8686] And he smote H6177 them from Aroer, H935 [H8800] even till thou comest H4511 to Minnith, H6242 even twenty H5892 cities, H58 and to the meadow H3754 H64 [H8677] of the vineyards, H3966 with a very H1419 great H4347 slaughter. H1121 Thus the sons H5983 of Ammon H3665 [H8735] were subdued H6440 at the face of H1121 the sons H3478 of Israel.

Clementine_Vulgate⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Et misit nuntios ad regem filiorum Ammon, qui ex persona sua dicerent: Quid mihi et tibi est, quia venisti contra me, ut vastares terram meam? ¹³ Quibus ille respondit: Quia tulit Israël terram meam, quando ascendit de Ægypto, a finibus Arnon usque Jaboc atque Jordanem: nunc ergo cum pace redde mihi eam. ¹⁴ Per quos rursum mandavit Jephte, et imperavit eis ut dicerent regi Ammon: ¹⁵ Hæc dicit Jephte: Non tulit Israël terram Moab, nec terram filiorum Ammon: ¹⁶ sed quando de Ægypto conscenderunt, ambulavit per solitudinem usque ad mare Rubrum, et venit in Cades. ¹⁷ Misitque nuntios ad regem Edom, dicens: Dimitte me ut transeam per terram tuam. Qui noluit acquiescere precibus ejus. Misit quoque ad regem Moab, qui et ipse transitum præbere contempsit. Mansit itaque in Cades, ¹⁸ et circuivit ex latere terram Edom et terram Moab: venitque contra orientalem plagam terræ Moab, et castrametatus est trans Arnon: nec voluit intrare terminos Moab. (Arnon quippe confinium est terræ Moab.) ¹⁹ Misit itaque Israël nuntios ad Sehon regem Amorrhæorum, qui habitabat in Hesebon, et dixerunt ei: Dimitte ut transeam per terram tuam usque ad fluvium. ²⁰ Qui et ipse Israël verba despiciens, non dimisit eum transire per terminos suos: sed infinita multitudine congregata, egressus est contra eum in Jasa, et fortiter resistebat. ²¹ Tradiditque eum Dominus in manus Israël cum omni exercitu suo: qui percussit eum, et possedit omnem terram Amorrhæi habitatoris regionis illius, ²² et universos fines ejus, de Arnon usque Jaboc, et de solitudine usque ad Jordanem. ²³ Dominus ergo Deus Israël subvertit Amorrhæum, pugnante contra illum populo suo Israël, et tu nunc vis possidere terram ejus? ²⁴ nonne ea quæ possidet Chamos deus tuus, tibi jure debentur? quæ autem Dominus Deus noster victor obtinuit, in nostram cedent possessionem: ²⁵ nisi forte melior es Balac filio Sephor rege Moab; aut docere potes, quod jurgatus sit contra Israël, et pugnaverit contra eum, ²⁶ quando habitavit in Hesebon et viculis ejus, et in Aroër et villis illius, vel in cunctis civitatibus juxta Jordanem, per trecentos annos.

Wycliffe⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And he sente messangeris to the kyng of the sones of Amon, whiche messangeris schulden seie `of his persoone, What is to me and to thee, for thou hast come `ayens me to waaste my lond? ¹³ To whiche the kyng answeride, For Israel whanne he stiede fro Egipt took awei my lond, fro the coostis of Arnon `til to Jaboch and to Jordan, now therfor yeelde it to me with pees. ¹⁴ Bi whiche massangeris Jepte sente eft, and comaundide to hem, that thei schulden seie to the kyng of Amon, ¹⁵ Jepte seith these thingis, Israel took not the lond of Moab, nether the lond of the sones of Amon; ¹⁶ but whanne thei stieden fro Egipt, `he yede bi the wildirnesse `til to the Reed See, and cam in to Cades; ¹⁷ and he sente messangeris to the kyng of Edom, and seide, Suffre thou me, that Y go thoruy thi lond; which kyng nolde assente to his preyeres. Also Israel sente to the kyng of Moab, and he dispiside to yyue passage; ¹⁸ and so Israel dwellyde in Cades, and cumpasside bi the side the lond of Edom, and the lond of Moab; and he cam to the eest coost of the lond of Moab, and settide tentis biyende Arnon, nether he wolde entre in to the termes of Moab; for Arnon is the ende of the lond of Moab. ¹⁹ And so Israel sente messangeris to Seon, kyng of Ammorreis, that dwellide in Esebon; and thei seiden to hym, Suffre thou, that Y passe thorouy thi lond `til to the ryuer. ²⁰ And he dispiside the wordis of Israel, and suffride not hym passe bi hise termes, but with a multitude with out noumbre gaderid to gidere he yede out ayens Israel, and ayenstood strongli. ²¹ And the Lord bitook hym with al his oost in to the hondis of Israel; and Israel smoot hym, and hadde in possessioun al the lond of Ammorrey, ²² dwellere of that cuntrey, and al the coostis therof fro Arnon `til to Jaboch, and fro the wildirnesse `til to Jordan. ²³ Therfor the Lord God of Israel distriede Ammorrey, fiytynge ayens hym for his puple Israel.

But the kynge of ye Edomites wolde not heare the. They sent lykewyse vnto the kynge of the Moabites, which wolde not also. Thus Israel abode in Cades, ¹⁸ and compased the lode of the Edomites and Moabites, and came on the eastsyde of the londe of the Moabites and pitched beyonde Arnon, and came not within the coaste of the Moabites. For Arnon is the border of the Moabites. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messaungers vnto Sihon the kynge of the Amorites at Hesbon, and caused to saye vnto him: Let me go thorow thy londe vnto my place. ²⁰ Neuertheles Sihon wolde not trust Israel to go thorow the border of his londe, but gathered all his people, and pitched at Iahza, and foughte with Israel. ²¹ Howbeit the LORDE God of Israel gaue Sihon with all his people in to Israels hade, so that they slewe them. Thus Israel conquered all the londe of the Amorites that dwelt in ye same countre. ²² And they toke possessio of all the borders of the Amorites, from Arnon vnto Iabok, & from ye wyldernesse vnto Iordane. ²³ So ye LORDE God of Israel droue awaye the Amorites before his people of Israel, and wilt thou coquere them? ²⁴ Is it not so, yf thy God Camos gaue the oughte to possesse, woldest thou not possesse it? What so euer the LORDE oure God hath geue vs before vs to possesse, that shal we conquere and take in possession. ²⁵ Hast thou better right (thinkest thou) the Balac the sonne of Ziphor, the kynge of ye Moabites? Dyd he euer go to lawe or fighte agaynst Israel? ²⁶ Though Israel haue dwelt now vpo a thre hudreth yeare in Hesbon, and in the vyllages therof, in Aroer and in the vyllages therof, and in all the cities that lye by Arnon. Why dyd not ye rescue it at the same tyme? ²⁷ I haue not offended the, & thou doest me euell to fighte agaynst me? The LORDE geue sentence this daie betwene Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ Neuertheles the kynge of the children of Ammon wolde not heare ye wordes of Iephthae, which he sent vnto him. ²⁹ Then came ye sprete of the LORDE vpon Iephthae, and he wente thorow Gilead and Manasse, and thorow Mispa which lieth in Gilead, and fro Mispa that lieth in Gilead, vnto ye children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Iephthae vowed a vowe vnto the LORDE, and sayde: Yf thou wilt delyuer the childre of Ammon in to my hande, ³¹ what so euer commeth (first) out at the dore of my house in my waye, whan I returne agayne peaceably from the childre of Ammon, that same shalbe the LORDES, and I wyl offre it for a burtnofferynge. ³² So Iephthae wente vpon the children of Ammon, to fighte against them. And ye LORDE gaue them in to his hande, ³³ and he smote the from Aroer tyll thou comest vnto Minnith, euen twentye cities, and vnto the playne of ye vynyardes a very greate slaughter, and thus were the children of Ammon subdued before the children of Israel.

MSTC⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Then Jephthah sent messengers unto the king of the children of Ammon, saying, "What aileth thee with me that thou comest upon me to fight against my land?" ¹³ And the king of the children of Ammon answered unto the messengers of Jephthah, "Because Israel took away my land, when they came out of Egypt, even from Arnon unto Jabbok and from thence unto Jordan, now therefore restore those lands again with fair means." ¹⁴ And Jephthah sent messengers again unto the children of Ammon, ¹⁵ and said unto him, "Thus sayeth Jephthah: Israel took not away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon. ¹⁶ But when Israel came out of Egypt, they walked through the wilderness, even unto the reed sea, and came to Kadesh, ¹⁷ and sent messengers unto the king of Edom saying, 'Let us, we pray thee, go through thy land.' But the king of Edom would not agree thereto. And in like manner they sent unto the king of Moab, but he would not consent. And so Israel abode still in Kadesh. ¹⁸ And then they went along through the wilderness, and compassed the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came along by the east side of the land of Moab, and pitched on the other side of the river of Arnon, and came not within the coasts of the Moabites: for Arnon was their utmost border. ¹⁹ And then Israel sent messengers unto Sihon, king of the Amorites, and king of Heshbon, and said unto him, 'Let us pass through thy land unto our own country.' ²⁰ But Sihon trusted not Israel, to go through his coasts: but gathered all his people together and pitched in Jahaz, and fought with Israel. ²¹ But the LORD God of Israel delivered Sihon and all his folk into the hands of Israel. And so Israel smote them and conquered all the land of the Amorites, the inhabiters of the said country. ²² And they conquered all the coasts of the Amorites, from Arnon unto Jabbok, and from the wilderness unto Jordan. ²³ So now seeing the LORD God of Israel hath cast out the Amorites before his people, shouldest thou possess the land? ²⁴ Nay, but what people Chemosh thy god driveth out, that land possess thou. But whatsoever nations the LORD our God expelleth, that land ought we to enjoy. ²⁵ And thereto art thou better than Balak the son of Zippor king of Moab? Did he strive with Israel or fight against thee, ²⁶ all the while Israel dwelt in Heshbon and her towns, and in Aroer and her towns, and in all the cities that be along by the coasts of Arnon, three hundredth years? Why didst thou not recover them in all that space? ²⁷ Wherefore I have not sinned against thee. But thou doest me wrong, to war against me. The LORD therefore be judge this day, between the children of Israel, and the children of Ammon." ²⁸ Howbeit, the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah which he sent him. ²⁹ Then the spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah. And he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and came to Mizpeh that lieth in Gilead, and from thence unto the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD and said, "If thou shalt deliver the children of Ammon into my hands, ³¹ then that thing that cometh out of the doors of my house against me, when I come home in peace from the children of Ammon, shall be the LORD's, and I will offer it up a burnt offering." ³² And so Jephthah went unto the children of Ammon to fight with them. And the LORD delivered them into his hands. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer unto Minnith, twenty cities. And so forth to the plain of the vineyards, and made an exceeding great slaughter. And thus the children of Ammon were brought under, before the children of Israel.

Matthew⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Then Iephthah sent messengers vnto the Kynge of the chyldren of Ammon, sayinge: what aileth the with me that thou comest vpon me to fyght agaynst my lande? ¹³ And the King of the chyldren of Ammon aunswered vnto the messengers of Iephthah, because Israel toke away my land, when they came out of Egipt: euen from Arnon vnto Iabok, & from thence vnto Iordan. Now therfore restore those landes agayne wyth fayre meanes. ¹⁴ And Iephthah sent messengers agayne vnto the chyldren of Ammon, ¹⁵ & sayde vnto hym: thus sayth Iephthah. Israel toke not awaye the lande of Moab, nor the land of the chyldren of Ammon. ¹⁶ But when Israel came out of Egypt, they walked thorow the wyldernesse, euen vnto the red sea & came to Cades, ¹⁷ & sente messengers vnto the kynge of Edom sayinge: let vs we praye the go thorow thy lande. But the kynge of Edom wolde not agre therto. And in lyke maner they sente vnto the Kynge of Moab, but he wolde not consent. And so Israel abode styll in Cades. ¹⁸ And then they wente a longe thorowe the wildernesse, and compased the lande of Edom, & the lande of Moab, and came a longe by the eastsyde of the land of Moab, and pitched on the other syde the riuer of Arnon, and came not wythin the coastes of the Moabites: for Arnon was their vtmost border. ¹⁹ And then Israel sent messengers vnto Sehon, Kynge of the Amorites, and Kynge of Hesbon, and said vnto him: Let vs passe thorow thy land vnto our owne countreye. ²⁰ But Sehon trusted not Israel, to go thorow hys coastes, but gathered all his people together and pytched in Iazah, and fought wyth Israell. ²¹ But the Lord God of Israel delyuered Sehon and al his folcke into the handes of Israel. And so Israel smote them and conquered al the lande of the Amorites, the enhabiters of the sayde countreye. ²² And they conquered al the coastes of the Amorites, from Arnon vnto Iabok, and from the wyldernesse vnto Iordan. ²³ So now seyng the Lorde God of Israel hath cast out the Amorites before his people, shouldeste thou possesse the land? ²⁴ Naye, but what people Camos thy God dryueth out, that land possesse thou. But whatsoeuer nacyons the Lorde oure God expelleth, that land ought we to enioye. ²⁵ And therto art thou better then Balack the sonne of Zephor Kynge of Moab? dyd he stryue wyth Israell or fyghte againste them? ²⁶ all the wyle Israell dwelte in Hesbon and her tounes, and in Aroer and her tounes, and in all the cytyes that be a longe by the coastes of Arnon .iij. hundred yeres? why dydest thou not recouer them in all that space, ²⁷ wherfore I haue not synned agaynste the. But thou doest me wronge, to warre agaynste me. The Lorde therfore be iudge this daye, betwene the chyldren of Israel, and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ How be it the Kynge of the children of Ammon harkened not vnto the wordes of Iephthah, which he sent him. ²⁹ Then the spirite of the Lorde came vpon Iephthah. And he passed ouer Galaad & Manasses, & came to Mazphah that lyeth in Galaad, and from thence vnto the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Iephthah vowed a vowe vnto the Lorde and sayd: If thou shalt deliuer the children of Ammon into my handes, ³¹ then that thinge that cometh out of the dores of my house agaynst me, when I come home in peace, from the children of Ammon, shalbe the Lordes, and I wil offer it vp a burntoffering. ³² And so Iephthah went vnto the children of Ammon to fyght wyth them. And the Lord deliuered them into his handes. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer vnto Menith .xx. cytyes. And so forth to the plaine of the vineiardes, and made an exceding great slaughter. And thus the chyldren of Ammon were brought vnder, before the chyldren of Israel.

Great⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Iephthah sent messenges vnto the king of the children of Ammon, saying: what hast thou to do wt me, that thou art come agaynst me, to fight in my land? ¹³ The king of the children of Ammon answered vnto the messengers of Iephthah: Because Israel toke awaye my land, when they came out of Egypt: euen from Arnon vnto Iabok, and vnto Iordan. Now therfore restore those landes agayne wt faire meanes. ¹⁴ And Iephthah sent messegers again vnto the children of Ammon ¹⁵ and sayd vnto him: thus sayth Iepthah: Israel toke not awaye the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon. ¹⁶ But when Israel came out of Egypt, & walked thorow the wildernesse, euen vnto the redd see, they came to Cades ¹⁷ & sent messengers vnto the king of Edom, saying: let me (I praye the) go thorow thy land. But the king of Edom wolde not agre therto. And in lyke maner they sent vnto the king of Moab, but he wold not consent. And so Israel abode stil in Cades. ¹⁸ And then they went along thorow the wildernesse, & compased the lande of Edom, & the land of Moab, & came a long by the east syde of the land of Moab, & pitched on the othersyde of Arnon, & wolde not come with in the coaste of Moab: for Arnon was the vtmost border of Moab. ¹⁹ And then Israel sent messengers vnto Schon, king of the Amorites, & king of Hesbon, & sayd vnto him: Lett vs passe thorow thy land vnto oure awne contreye. ²⁰ But Sehon consented not to Israel, that he shulde go thorow hys coast: but gathered all his people togeather, & pitched in Iazah, & fought wt Israel. ²¹ And the Lord God of Israel delyuered Sehon & all his folke into the handes of Israel. And so Israel smote them & conquered all the land of the Amorites, the enhabiters of the sayde contrey. ²² And they conquered all the coastes of the Amorites, from Arnon vnto Iabok, & from the wildernesse vnto Iordan. ²³ So now, seyng the Lorde God of Israel hath cast out the Amorites before hys people Israel, shuldest thou possesse the land? ²⁴ Naye, but what people, Camos thy God dryueth out, that land possesse thou. Euen so whatsoeuer nacion the Lorde oure God expelleth, that lande ought we to enioye. ²⁵ And art thou better then Balack the sonne of Zephor king of Moab? dyd he striue wt Israel or fyght agaynst them, ²⁶ all the whyle Israel dwelt in Hesbon and her townes, in Aroer & her townes, & in all the cyties that be a longe by the coastes of Arnon, thre hundred yeres? why dydist thou not recouer them in all that space? ²⁷ Wherfore I haue not synned agaynst the. But thou doest me wronge, to warre agaynst me. The Lorde therfore which is a Iudge be Iudge thys daye betwene the children of Israel, and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ Howbeit the kynge of the chyldren of Ammon, harkened not vnto the wordes of Iephthah, which he sent him. ²⁹ Then the sprete of the Lorde came vpon Iephthah. And he passed ouer to Gylead & to Manasses, & came to Mazphah that lieth in Gilead, and from thence vnto the chyldren of Ammon. ³⁰ And Iephthah vowed a vowe vnto the Lord, and sayd: If thou shalt delyuer the chyldren of Ammon into my handes, ³¹ then that thinge that cometh oute of the dores of my house against me, when I come home in peace, from the chyldren of Ammon, shalbe the Lordes, and I wyll offer it vp for a burnt offering: ³² And so Iephthah went vnto the children of Ammon to fyght wt them. And the Lord delyuered them into hys handes. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer tyll thou come to Menith, euen .xx. cytes: and so forth to the playne of the vyneyardes, with an exceding great slaughter. And thus the children of Ammon were brought vnder, before the chyldren of Israel

Geneva⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Then Iphtah sent messengers vnto the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What hast thou to doe with me, that thou art come against me, to fight in my lande? ¹³ And the King of the children of Ammon answered vnto the messengers of Iphtah, Because Israel tooke my lande, when they came vp from Egypt, from Arnon vnto Iabbok, and vnto Iorden: now therefore restore those lands quietly. ¹⁴ Yet Iphtah sent messengers againe vnto the King of the children of Ammon, ¹⁵ And said vnto him, Thus saith Iphtah, Israel tooke not the lande of Moab, nor the lande of the children of Ammon. ¹⁶ But when Israel came vp from Egypt, and walked through the wildernesse vnto the redde Sea, then they came to Kadesh. ¹⁷ And Israel sent messengers vnto the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, goe thorowe thy lande: but the King of Edom woulde not consent: and also they sent vnto the King of Moab, but he would not: therefore Israel abode in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then they went through the wildernesse, and compassed the lande of Edom, and the lande of Moab, and came by the Eastside of the lande of Moab, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, and came not within the coast of Moab: for Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ Also Israel sent messengers vnto Sihon, King of the Amorites, the King of Heshbon, and Israel said vnto him, Let vs passe, we pray thee, by thy lande vnto our place. ²⁰ But Sihon consented not to Israel, that he shoulde goe through his coast: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and pitched in Iahaz, and fought with Israel. ²¹ And the Lord God of Israel gaue Sihon and all his folke into the handes of Israel, and they smote them: so Israel possessed all the lande of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that countrey: ²² And they possessed all the coast of the Amorites, from Arnon vnto Iabbok, and from the wildernesse euen vnto Iorden. ²³ Nowe therefore the Lord God of Israel hath cast out the Amorites before his people Israel, and shouldest thou possesse it? ²⁴ Wouldest not thou possesse that which Chemosh thy god giueth thee to possesse? So whomesoeuer the Lord our God driueth out before vs, them will we possesse. ²⁵ And art thou nowe farre better then Balak the sonne of Zippor King of Moab? did he not striue with Israel and fight against them, ²⁶ When Israel dwelt in Heshbon and in her townes, and in Aroer and in her townes, and in all the cities that are by the coastes of Arnon, three hundreth yeeres? why did ye not then recouer them in that space? ²⁷ Wherefore, I haue not offended thee: but thou doest me wrong to warre against me. The Lord the Iudge be iudge this day betweene the children of Israel, and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ Howbeit the King of the children of Ammon hearkened not vnto the wordes of Iphtah, which he had sent him. ²⁹ Then the Spirite of the Lord came vpon Iphtah, and he passed ouer to Gilead and to Manasseh, and came to Mizpeh in Gilead, and from Mizpeh in Gilead he went vnto the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Iphtah vowed a vowe vnto the Lord, and said, If thou shalt deliuer the children of Ammon into mine handes, ³¹ Then that thing that commeth out of the doores of mine house to meete me, when I come home in peace from the children of Ammon, shall be the Lordes, and I will offer it for a burnt offering. ³² And so Iphtah went vnto the children of Ammon to fight against them, and the Lord deliuered them into his handes. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer euen till thou come to Minnith, twentie cities, and so foorth to Abel of the vineyardes, with an exceeding great slaughter. Thus the children of Ammon were humbled before the children of Israel.

And in lyke maner they sent vnto the king of Moab: but he woulde not consent. And Israel abode stil in Cades ¹⁸ And then they went along thorowe the wildernesse, and compassed the land of Edom, & the land of Moab, and came along by the east syde of the land of Moab, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, and woulde not come within the coast of Moab: for Arnon was the border of Moab ¹⁹ And then Israel sent messengers vnto Sehon king of the Amorites, & king of Hesbon, and sayde vnto him: Let vs passe we pray thee thorow thy land vnto our owne countrey ²⁰ But Sehon consented not to Israel, that he shoulde go thorowe his coast: but gathered all his people together, & pitched in Iasa, & fought with Israel ²¹ And the Lorde God of Israel deliuered Sehon & all his folke into the handes of Israel, and they smote them: So Israel smote them, and possessed all the land of the Amorites the inhabitauntes of that countrey ²² And they possessed al the coastes of the Amorites, from Arnon vnto Iabok, & from the wildernesse vnto Iordane ²³ So nowe, seyng the Lord God of Israel hath cast out the Amorites before his people Israel, shouldest thou possesse it ²⁴ Nay, but what people Camos thy God dryueth out, that lande possesse thou: Euen so whatsoeuer nation the Lord our God expelleth before vs, that lande ought we to enioy ²⁵ And art thou better then Balac the sonne of Zephor king of Moab? Did he not stryue with Israel and fight against them ²⁶ All the whyle Israel dwelt in Hesbon and her townes, in Aroer and her townes, and in all the cities that be along by ye coastes of Arnon three hundred yeres? Why did ye not recouer them in all that space ²⁷ Wherfore I haue not synned agaynst thee, but thou doest me wrong to warre against me: The Lord therfore whiche is a iudge, be iudge this day betweene the children of Israel, and the children of Ammon ²⁸ Howbeit, the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not vnto the wordes of Iephthah, which he sent him ²⁹ Then the spirite of the Lord came vpo Iephthah, and he passed ouer to Gilead & to Manasses, and came to Mispah that lieth in Gilead, & from thence vnto the children of Ammon ³⁰ And Iephthah vowed a vowe vnto ye Lorde, & sayd: If thou shalt deliuer the children of Ammon into my handes ³¹ Then that thing that commeth out of the doores of my house against me, whe I come home in peace from the children of Ammon, shalbe the Lordes, and I will offer it vp for a burnt offering ³² And so Iephthah went vnto the children of Ammon to fight agaynst them, and the Lorde deliuered them into his handes ³³ And he smote them from Aroer tyll thou come to Mennith, euen twentie cities, and so foorth to the playne of the vineyardes, with an exceeding great slaughter: And thus the childre of Ammon were brought vnder, before the children of Israel

DouayRheims⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And he sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, to say in his name: What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come against me, to waste my land? ¹³ And he answered them: Because Israel took away my land, when he came up out of Egypt, from the confines of the Arnon unto the Jaboc and the Jordan: now, therefore, restore the same peaceably to me. ¹⁴ And Jephte again sent word by them, and commanded them to say to the king of Ammon: ¹⁵ Thus saith Jephte: Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon: ¹⁶ But when they came up out of Egypt, he walked through the desert to the Red Sea, and came into Cades. ¹⁷ And he sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying: Suffer me to pass through thy land. But he would not condescend to his request. He sent also to the king of Moab, who, likewise, refused to give him passage. He abode, therefore, in Cades, ¹⁸ And went round the land of Edom at the side, and the land of Moab: and came over against the east coast of the land of Moab, and camped on the other side of the Arnon: and he would not enter the bounds of Moab. ¹⁹ So Israel sent messengers to Sehon, king of the Amorrhites, who dwelt in Hesebon, and they said to him: Suffer me to pass through thy land to the river. ²⁰ But he, also despising the words of Israel, suffered him not to pass through his borders: but gathering an infinite multitude, went out against him to Jasa, and made strong opposition. ²¹ And the Lord delivered him, with all his army, into the hands of Israel, and he slew him, and possessed all the land of the Amorrhite, the inhabitant of that country, ²² And all the coasts thereof from the Arnon to the Jaboc, and from the wilderness to the Jordan. ²³ So the Lord, the God of Israel, destroyed the Amorrhite, his people of Israel fighting against him, and wilt thou now possess his land? ²⁴ Are not those things which thy god Chamos possesseth, due to thee by right? But what the Lord our God hath obtained by conquest, shall be our possession: ²⁵ Unless, perhaps, thou art better than Balac, the son of Sephor, king of Moab: or canst shew that he strove against Israel, and fought against him, ²⁶ Whereas he hath dwelt in Hesebon, and the villages thereof, and in Aroer, and its villages, and in all the cities near the Jordan, for three hundred years. Why have you for so long a time attempted nothing about this claim? ²⁷ Therefore I do not trespass against thee, but thou wrongest me by declaring an unjust war against me. The Lord be judge, and decide this day, between Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ And the king of the children of Ammon would not hearken to the words of Jephte, which he sent him by the messengers. ²⁹ Therefore the spirit of the Lord came upon Jephte, and going round Galaad, and Manasses, and Maspha of Galaad, and passing over from thence to the children of Ammon, ³⁰ He made a vow to the Lord, saying: If thou wilt deliver the children of Ammon into my hands, ³¹ Whosoever shall first come forth out of the doors of my house, and shall meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, the same will I offer a holocaust to the Lord. ³² And Jephte passed over to the children of Ammon to fight against them: and the Lord delivered them into his hands. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer till you come to Mennith, twenty cities, and as far as Abel, which is set with vineyards, with a very great slaughter: and the children of Ammon were humbled by the children of Israel.

KJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sent messengers unto the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come against me to fight in my land? ¹³ And the king of the children of Ammon answered unto the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even unto Jabbok, and unto Jordan: now therefore restore those lands again peaceably. ¹⁴ And Jephthah sent messengers again unto the king of the children of Ammon: ¹⁵ And said unto him, Thus saith Jephthah, Israel took not away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon: ¹⁶ But when Israel came up from Egypt, and walked through the wilderness unto the Red sea, and came to Kadesh; ¹⁷ Then Israel sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, pass through thy land: but the king of Edom would not hearken thereto.

So whomsoever the LORD our God shall drive out from before us, them will we possess. ²⁵ And now art thou any thing better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them, ²⁶ While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and her towns, and in Aroer and her towns, and in all the cities that be along by the coasts of Arnon, three hundred years? why therefore did ye not recover them within that time? ²⁷ Wherefore I have not sinned against thee, but thou doest me wrong to war against me: the LORD the Judge be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ Howbeit the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah which he sent him. ²⁹ Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead, and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into mine hands, ³¹ Then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the LORD's, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering. ³² So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hands. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer, even till thou come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and unto the plain of the vineyards, with a very great slaughter.

And in like manner they sent unto the king of Moab: but he would not consent: and Israel abode in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then they went along through the wilderness, and compassed the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, but came not within the border of Moab: for Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said unto him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land into my place. ²⁰ But Sihon trusted not Israel to pass through his coast: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and pitched in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. ²¹ And the LORD God of Israel delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them: so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. ²² And they possessed all the coasts of the Amorites, from Arnon even unto Jabbok, and from the wilderness even unto Jordan. ²³ So now the LORD God of Israel hath dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and shouldest thou possess it? ²⁴ Wilt not thou possess that which Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess? So whomsoever the LORD our God shall drive out from before us, them will we possess. ²⁵ And now art thou any thing better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them, ²⁶ While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and her towns, and in Aroer and her towns, and in all the cities that be along by the coasts of Arnon, three hundred years? why therefore did ye not recover them within that time? ²⁷ Wherefore I have not sinned against thee, but thou doest me wrong to war against me: the LORD the Judge be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ Howbeit the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah which he sent him. ²⁹ Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead, and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into mine hands, ³¹ Then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the LORD's, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering. ³² So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hands. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer, even till thou come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and unto the plain of the vineyards, with a very great slaughter. Thus the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.

12 H3316 And Jephthah H7971 sent [H8799] H4397 messengers H4428 unto the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H559 , saying [H8800] H935 , What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come [H8804] H3898 against me to fight [H8736] H776 in my land?

13 H4428 And the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H559 answered [H8799] H4397 unto the messengers H3316 of Jephthah H3478 , Because Israel H3947 took away [H8804] H776 my land H5927 , when they came up [H8800] H4714 out of Egypt H769 , from Arnon H2999 even unto Jabbok H3383 , and unto Jordan H7725 : now therefore restore those lands again [H8685] H7965 peaceably.

14 H3316 And Jephthah H7971 sent [H8799] H4397 messengers H3254 again [H8686] H4428 unto the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon:

15 H559 And said [H8799] H559 unto him, Thus saith [H8804] H3316 Jephthah H3478 , Israel H3947 took not away [H8804] H776 the land H4124 of Moab H776 , nor the land H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon:

16 H3478 But when Israel H5927 came up [H8800] H4714 from Egypt H3212 , and walked [H8799] H4057 through the wilderness H5488 unto the Red H3220 sea H935 , and came [H8799] H6946 to Kadesh;

17 H3478 Then Israel H7971 sent [H8799] H4397 messengers H4428 unto the king H123 of Edom H559 , saying [H8800] H5674 , Let me, I pray thee, pass through [H8799] H776 thy land H4428 : but the king H123 of Edom H8085 would not hearken [H8804] H7971 thereto . And in like manner they sent [H8804] H4428 unto the king H4124 of Moab H14 : but he would [H8804] H3478 not consent : and Israel H3427 abode [H8799] H6946 in Kadesh.

18 H3212 Then they went along [H8799] H4057 through the wilderness H5437 , and compassed [H8799] H776 the land H123 of Edom H776 , and the land H4124 of Moab H935 , and came [H8799] H4217 by the east side H8121 H776 of the land H4124 of Moab H2583 , and pitched [H8799] H5676 on the other side H769 of Arnon H935 , but came [H8804] H1366 not within the border H4124 of Moab H769 : for Arnon H1366 was the border H4124 of Moab.

19 H3478 And Israel H7971 sent [H8799] H4397 messengers H5511 unto Sihon H4428 king H567 of the Amorites H4428 , the king H2809 of Heshbon H3478 ; and Israel H559 said [H8799] H5674 unto him, Let us pass [H8799] H776 , we pray thee, through thy land H5704 into H4725 my place.

20 H5511 But Sihon H539 trusted [H8689] H3478 not Israel H5674 to pass [H8800] H1366 through his coast H5511 : but Sihon H622 gathered H5971 all his people H622 together [H8799] H2583 , and pitched [H8799] H3096 in Jahaz H3898 , and fought [H8735] H3478 against Israel.

21 H3068 And the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H5414 delivered [H8799] H5511 Sihon H5971 and all his people H3027 into the hand H3478 of Israel H5221 , and they smote [H8686] H3478 them: so Israel H3423 possessed [H8799] H776 all the land H567 of the Amorites H3427 , the inhabitants [H8802] H776 of that country.

22 H3423 And they possessed [H8799] H1366 all the coasts H567 of the Amorites H769 , from Arnon H2999 even unto Jabbok H4057 , and from the wilderness H3383 even unto Jordan.

23 H3068 So now the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H3423 hath dispossessed [H8689] H567 the Amorites H6440 from before H5971 his people H3478 Israel H3423 , and shouldest thou possess [H8799] it?

24 H3423 Wilt not thou possess [H8799] H3645 that which Chemosh H430 thy god H3423 giveth thee to possess [H8686] H3068 ? So whomsoever the LORD H430 our God H3423 shall drive out [H8689] H6440 from before H3423 us, them will we possess [H8799] .

25 H2896 And now art thou any thing better H1111 than Balak H1121 the son H6834 of Zippor H4428 , king H4124 of Moab H7378 ? did he ever [H8800] H7378 strive [H8804] H3478 against Israel H3898 , or did he ever [H8736] H3898 fight [H8738] against them,

26 H3478 While Israel H3427 dwelt [H8800] H2809 in Heshbon H1323 and her towns H6177 , and in Aroer H1323 and her towns H5892 , and in all the cities H3027 that be along by the coasts H769 of Arnon H7969 , three H3967 hundred H8141 years H5337 ? why therefore did ye not recover [H8689] H6256 them within that time?

27 H2398 Wherefore I have not sinned [H8804] H6213 against thee, but thou doest [H8802] H853 H7451 me wrong H3898 to war [H8736] H3068 against me: the LORD H8199 the Judge [H8802] H8199 be judge [H8799] H3117 this day H1121 between the children H3478 of Israel H1121 and the children H5983 of Ammon.

28 H4428 Howbeit the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H8085 hearkened [H8804] H1697 not unto the words H3316 of Jephthah H7971 which he sent [H8804] him.

29 H7307 Then the Spirit H3068 of the LORD H3316 came upon Jephthah H5674 , and he passed over [H8799] H1568 Gilead H4519 , and Manasseh H5674 , and passed over [H8799] H4708 Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead H4708 , and from Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead H5674 he passed over [H8804] H1121 unto the children H5983 of Ammon.

30 H3316 And Jephthah H5087 vowed [H8799] H5088 a vow H3068 unto the LORD H559 , and said [H8799] H5414 , If thou shalt without fail [H8800] H5414 deliver [H8799] H1121 the children H5983 of Ammon H3027 into mine hands,

31 H3318 Then it shall be, that whatsoever [H8802] H3318 cometh forth [H8799] H1817 of the doors H1004 of my house H7125 to meet [H8800] H7725 me, when I return [H8800] H7965 in peace H1121 from the children H5983 of Ammon H3068 , shall surely be the LORD'S H5927 , and I will offer it up [H8689] H5930 for a burnt offering.

32 H3316 So Jephthah H5674 passed over [H8799] H1121 unto the children H5983 of Ammon H3898 to fight [H8736] H3068 against them; and the LORD H5414 delivered [H8799] H3027 them into his hands.

33 H5221 And he smote [H8686] H6177 them from Aroer H935 , even till thou come [H8800] H4511 to Minnith H6242 , even twenty H5892 cities H58 , and unto the plain H3754 of the vineyards [H8677] H64 H3966 , with a very H1419 great H4347 slaughter H1121 . Thus the children H5983 of Ammon H3665 were subdued [H8735] H6440 before H1121 the children H3478 of Israel.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² he sent messengers to the king of the Ammonites, saying, What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come up against me to fight in my land? ¹³ And the king of the Ammonites said to Jephthae's messengers; Because Israel took my land when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon to Jabok, and to the Jordan. Now therefore restore me those lands peaceably, and I will depart. ¹⁴ Thereupon Jephthae again sent messengers to the king of the Ammonites, ¹⁵ and said to him, Thus saith Jephthae, Israel did not take the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon. ¹⁶ For when they came out of Egypt, Israel marched through the wilderness to the sea of Siph, and came to Kades; ¹⁷ and Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, march through thy land; but the king of Edom did not consent. They sent also to the king of Moab; but the king of Moab did not consent. So after halting at Kades, ¹⁸ Israel marched through the wilderness, and went round the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came eastward of Moab, and encamped on the bank of the Arnon, but did not enter the borders of Moab; for Arnon was the boundary of Moab. ¹⁹ Then Israel sent messengers to Seon, king of the Amorites; the king of Esebon, and said to him, Let us we pray thee pass through thy land to our place; ²⁰ but Seon would not trust Israel to pass through along his border, but assembled all his people, and encamped at Jasa, and came to an engagement with Israel. ²¹ And the Lord God of Israel delivered into the hands of Israel, Seon and all his people, and they smote him. So Israel took possession of all the land of the Amorites, who inhabited the country ²² from Arnon to Jabok and from the wilderness to the Jordan. ²³ Now therefore hath the Lord God of Israel removed the Amorites from before his people, and art thou to possess them? ²⁴ If thy god Chamos were to put thee in possession of any places, wouldst thou not possess them? And shall not we succeed all those whom the Lord our God hath removed from before us? ²⁵ Besides, art thou in any respect better than Balak, son of Sepphor, king of Moab? Did he ever contend with Israel, or go to war with them about this, ²⁶ all the while they lived in Esebon, and the borders thereof, and in the land of Aroer, and the borders thereof, and in all the cities along the Jordan, for three hundred years? Why didst thou not in all this time recover them. ²⁷ Now therefore I call God to witness, that I have not sinned against thee, and that thou dealest wrongfully in going to war with me. Let the Lord, who is Judge, judge this day between Israel and the Ammonites. ²⁸ And when the king of the Ammonites hearkened not to the message which Jephthae sent him, ²⁹ the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jephthae, and he marched through Galaad, and Manasses, and passed the watch tower of Galaad, into the border of the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthae vowed a vow to the Lord, and said, If thou deliver the children of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ it shall be, that whosoever cometh from the door of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall be for the Lord. Him will I dedicate as a whole burnt offering. ³² And when Jephthae passed on to come to battle with the children of Ammon, the Lord delivered them into his hand, ³³ and he smote them from Aroer all the way to Arnon, through the number of twenty cities, and even to Ebelcharmin, with a prodigious slaughter.

Webster⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What hast thou to do with me, that thou hast come against me to fight in my land? ¹³ And the king of the children of Ammon answered to the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land, when they came out of Egypt, from Arnon even to Jabbok, and to Jordan: now therefore restore those lands again peaceably. ¹⁴ And Jephthah sent messengers again to the king of the children of Ammon: ¹⁵ And said to him, Thus saith Jephthah, Israel took not away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon: ¹⁶ But when Israel came up from Egypt, and walked through the wilderness to the Red sea, and came to Kadesh; ¹⁷ Then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, pass through thy land: but the king of Edom would not hearken to it. And in like manner they sent to the king of Moab; but he would not consent. And Israel abode in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then they went along through the wilderness, and compassed the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, but came not within the border of Moab: for Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said to him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land to my place. ²⁰ But Sihon trusted not Israel to pass through his border: but Sihon collected all his people, and encamped in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. ²¹ And the LORD God of Israel delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them: so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. ²² And they possessed all the borders of the Amorites, from Arnon even to Jabbok, and from the wilderness even to Jordan. ²³ So now the LORD God of Israel hath dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and shouldst thou possess it? ²⁴ Wilt not thou possess that which Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess? So whomsoever the LORD our God shall drive out from before us, them will we possess. ²⁵ And now art thou any thing better than Balak the son of Zippor king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them, ²⁶ While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and her towns, and in Aroer and her towns, and in all the cities that are along by the borders of Arnon, three hundred years? why therefore did ye not recover them within that time? ²⁷ Wherefore I have not sinned against thee, but thou doest me wrong to war against me: the LORD the Judge be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ But, the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not to the words of Jephthah which he sent him. ²⁹ Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead, and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over to the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow to the LORD, and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into my hands, ³¹ Then it shall be, that whatever cometh out of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the LORD'S, and I will offer it for a burnt-offering. ³² So Jephthah passed over to the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hands. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer even till thou comest to Minnith, even twenty cities, and to the plain of the vineyards, with a very great slaughter. Thus the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.

13 H4428 And the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H559 [H8799] answered H4397 to the messengers H3316 of Jephthah H3478 , Because Israel H3947 [H8804] took away H776 my land H5927 [H8800] , when they came H4714 out of Egypt H769 , from Arnon H2999 even to Jabbok H3383 , and to Jordan H7725 [H8685] : now therefore restore those lands again H7965 peaceably.

15 H559 [H8799] And said H559 [H8804] to him, Thus saith H3316 Jephthah H3478 , Israel H3947 [H8804] took not away H776 the land H4124 of Moab H776 , nor the land H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon:

16 H3478 But when Israel H5927 [H8800] came up H4714 from Egypt H3212 [H8799] , and walked H4057 through the wilderness H5488 to the Red H3220 sea H935 [H8799] , and came H6946 to Kadesh;

17 H3478 Then Israel H7971 [H8799] sent H4397 messengers H4428 to the king H123 of Edom H559 [H8800] , saying H5674 [H8799] , Let me, I pray thee, pass through H776 thy land H4428 : but the king H123 of Edom H8085 [H8804] would not hearken H7971 [H8804] to it.

18 H3212 [H8799] Then they went along H4057 through the wilderness H5437 [H8799] , and went around H776 the land H123 of Edom H776 , and the land H4124 of Moab H935 [H8799] , and came H4217 H8121 by the east side H776 of the land H4124 of Moab H2583 [H8799] , and encamped H5676 on the other side H769 of Arnon H935 [H8804] , but came H1366 not within the border H4124 of Moab H769 : for Arnon H1366 was the border H4124 of Moab.

19 H3478 And Israel H7971 [H8799] sent H4397 messengers H5511 to Sihon H4428 king H567 of the Amorites H4428 , the king H2809 of Heshbon H3478 ; and Israel H559 [H8799] said H5674 [H8799] to him, Let us pass H776 , we pray thee, through thy land H5704 to H4725 my place.

20 H5511 But Sihon H539 [H8689] trusted H3478 not Israel H5674 [H8800] to pass H1366 through his land H5511 : but Sihon H622 0 gathered H5971 all his people H622 [H8799] together H2583 [H8799] , and encamped H3096 in Jahaz H3898 [H8735] , and fought H3478 against Israel.

21 H3068 And the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H5414 [H8799] delivered H5511 Sihon H5971 and all his people H3027 into the hand H3478 of Israel H5221 [H8686] , and they smote H3478 them: so Israel H3423 [H8799] possessed H776 all the land H567 of the Amorites H3427 [H8802] , the inhabitants H776 of that country.

22 H3423 [H8799] And they possessed H1366 all the land H567 of the Amorites H769 , from Arnon H2999 even to Jabbok H4057 , and from the wilderness H3383 even to Jordan.

23 H3068 So now the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H3423 [H8689] hath dispossessed H567 the Amorites H6440 from before H5971 his people H3478 Israel H3423 [H8799] , and shouldest thou possess it?

24 H3423 [H8799] Wilt not thou possess H3645 that which Chemosh H430 thy god H3423 [H8686] giveth thee to possess H3068 ? So whomever the LORD H430 our God H3423 [H8689] shall drive out H6440 from before H3423 [H8799] us, them will we possess.

25 H2896 And now art thou any thing better H1111 than Balak H1121 the son H6834 of Zippor H4428 , king H4124 of Moab H7378 [H8800] ? did he ever H7378 [H8804] strive H3478 against Israel H3898 [H8736] , or did he ever H3898 [H8738] fight against them,

26 H3478 While Israel H3427 [H8800] dwelt H2809 in Heshbon H1323 and her towns H6177 , and in Aroer H1323 and her towns H5892 , and in all the cities H3027 that are along by the banks H769 of Arnon H7969 , three H3967 hundred H8141 years H5337 [H8689] ? why therefore did ye not recover H6256 them within that time?

27 H2398 [H8804] Therefore I have not sinned H6213 H853 [H8802] against thee, but thou doest H7451 me wrong H3898 [H8736] to war H3068 against me: the LORD H8199 [H8802] the Judge H8199 [H8799] be judge H3117 this day H1121 between the children H3478 of Israel H1121 and the children H5983 of Ammon.

29 H7307 Then the Spirit H3068 of the LORD H3316 came upon Jephthah H5674 [H8799] , and he passed over H1568 Gilead H4519 , and Manasseh H5674 [H8799] , and passed over H4708 Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead H4708 , and from Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead H5674 [H8804] he passed over H1121 to the children H5983 of Ammon.

30 H3316 And Jephthah H5087 [H8799] vowed H5088 a vow H3068 to the LORD H559 [H8799] , and said H5414 [H8800] , If thou shalt without fail H5414 [H8799] deliver H1121 the children H5983 of Ammon H3027 into my hands,

31 H3318 [H8802] Then it shall be, that whatever H3318 [H8799] cometh out H1817 of the doors H1004 of my house H7125 [H8800] to meet H7725 [H8800] me, when I return H7965 in peace H1121 from the children H5983 of Ammon H3068 , shall surely be the LORD'S H5927 [H8689] , and I will offer it H5930 for a burnt offering.

32 H3316 So Jephthah H5674 [H8799] passed over H1121 to the children H5983 of Ammon H3898 [H8736] to fight H3068 against them; and the LORD H5414 [H8799] delivered H3027 them into his hands.

33 H5221 [H8686] And he smote H6177 them from Aroer H935 [H8800] , even till thou comest H4511 to Minnith H6242 , even twenty H5892 cities H58 , and to the plain H3754 H64 [H8677] of the vineyards H3966 , with a very H1419 great H4347 slaughter H1121 . Thus the children H5983 of Ammon H3665 [H8735] were subdued H6440 before H1121 the children H3478 of Israel.

Brenton⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthae sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What have I to do with thee, that thou hast come against me to fight in my land? ¹³ And the king of the children of Ammon said to the messengers of Jephthae, Because Israel took my land when he went up out of Egypt, from Arnon to Jaboc, and to Jordan: now then return them peaceably and I will depart. ¹⁴ And Jephthae again sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, ¹⁵ and said to him, Thus says Jephthae, Israel took not the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon; ¹⁶ for in their going up out of Egypt Israel went in the wilderness as far as the sea of Siph, and came to Cades. ¹⁷ And Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, I will pass, if it please thee, by thy land: and the king of Edom complied not: and Israel also sent to the king of Moab, and he did not consent; and Israel sojourned in Cades. ¹⁸ And they journeyed in the wilderness, and compassed the land of Edom and the land of Moab: and they came by the east of the land of Moab, an encamped in the country beyond Arnon, and came not within the borders of Moab, for Arnon is the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers to Seon king of the Amorite, king of Esbon, and Israel said to him, Let us pass, we pray thee, by thy land to our place. ²⁰ And Seon did not trust Israel to pass by his coast; and Seon gathered all his people, and they encamped at Jasa; and he set the battle in array against Israel. ²¹ And the Lord God of Israel delivered Seon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote him; and Israel inherited all the land of the Amorite who dwelt in that land, ²² from Arnon and to Jaboc, and from the wilderness to Jordan. ²³ And now the Lord God of Israel has removed the Amorite from before his people Israel, and shalt thou inherit his land? ²⁴ Wilt thou not inherit those possessions which Chamos thy god shall cause thee to inherit; and shall not we inherit the land of all those whom the Lord our God has removed from before you? ²⁵ And now art thou any better than Balac son of Sepphor, king of Moab? did he indeed fight with Israel, or indeed make war with him, ²⁶ when Israel dwelt in Esebon and in its coasts, and in the land of Aroer and in its coasts, and in all the cities by Jordan, three hundred years? and wherefore didst thou not recover them in that time? ²⁷ And now I have not sinned against thee, but thou wrongest me in preparing war against me: may the Lord the Judge judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ But the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not to the words of Jephthae, which he sent to him. ²⁹ And the spirit of the Lord came upon Jephthae, and he passed over Galaad, and Manasse, and passed by the watch-tower of Galaad to the other side of the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthae vowed a vow to the Lord, and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then it shall come to pass that whosoever shall first come out of the door of my house to meet me when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, he shall be the Lord's: I will offer him up for a whole-burnt-offering. ³² And Jephthae advanced to meet the sons of Ammon to fight against them; and the Lord delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer till one comes to Arnon, in number twenty cities, and as far as Ebelcharmim, with a very great destruction: and the children of Ammon were straitened before the children of Israel.

Leeser⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Yiphthach sent messengers unto the king of the children of ‘Ammon, saying, What have I to do with thee, that thou art come unto me to fight against my land? ¹³ And the king of the children of ‘Ammon said unto the messengers of Yiphthach, Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even unto the Yabbok, and unto the Jordan: and now restore these lands again in peace. ¹⁴ And Yiphthach again sent messengers unto the king of the children of ‘Ammon; ¹⁵ And he said unto him, Thus hath said Yiphthach, Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of ‘Ammon; ¹⁶ For when they came up out of Egypt, Israel walked through the wilderness unto the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh; ¹⁷ And Israel then sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me pass, I pray thee, through thy land; but the king of Edom would not hearken; and also to the king of Moab they sent; but he would not consent: and Israel remained in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then they wandered through the wilderness, and traveled round the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came from the rising of the sun to the land of Moab, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon: but they came not within the border of Moab; for the Arnon is the boundary of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers unto Sichon the king of the Emorites, the king of Cheshbon; and Israel said unto him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land unto my place. ²⁰ But Sichon trusted not Israel to let them pass through his territory; and Sichon assembled all his people, and encamped in Yahaz, and fought against Israel. ²¹ and the Lord the God of Israel delivered Sichon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them; and Israel took possession of all the land of the Emorites, the inhabitants of that country. ²² And they took possession of all the territory of the Emorites, from the Arnon even unto the Yabbok, and from the wilderness even unto the Jordan. ²³ So now the Lord the God of Israel hath dispossessed the Emorites from before his people Israel, and shouldst thou possess it? ²⁴ Truly! that which Kemosh thy god may give thee to possess, even that canst thou possess; but whatsoever the Lord our God hath driven out from before us, even that will we possess. ²⁵ And now art thou then any better than Balak the son of Zippor, the king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them? ²⁶ And while Israel hath dwelt in Cheshbon and in its towns, and in ‘Ar’or and in its towns, and in all the cities that are along the margins of the Arnon, three hundred years: why did ye not recover them within that time? ²⁷ Whereas I myself have not sinned against thee, and thou doest me wrong to war against me: may the Lord, the Judge, decide this day between the children of Israel and the children of ‘Ammon. ²⁸ Nevertheless the king of the children of ‘Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Yiphthach which he had sent to him. ²⁹ Then came upon Yiphthach the spirit of the Lord, and he passed through Gil’ad and Menasseh, and passed through Mitzpeh of Gil’ad, and from Mitzpeh of Gil’ad he passed over unto the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Yiphthach made a vow unto the Lord, and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver the children of ‘Ammon into my hand, ³¹ Then shall it be, that whatsoever cometh forth out of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of ‘Ammon, shall belong to the Lord, and I will offer it up for a burnt-offering. ³² So Yiphthach passed over unto the children of ‘Ammon to fight against them: and the Lord delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he smote them from ‘Aro’er, even till thou comest to Minnith, twenty cities, and unto Abel-keramin, with a very great defeat; and the children of ‘Ammon were humbled before the children of Israel.

YLT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sendeth messengers unto the king of the Bene-Ammon, saying, `What—to me and to thee, that thou hast come in unto me, to fight in my land.' ¹³ And the king of the Bene-Ammon saith unto the messengers of Jephthah, `Because Israel took my land in his coming up out of Egypt, from Arnon, and unto the Jabbok, and unto the Jordan; and now, restore them in peace.' ¹⁴ And Jephthah addeth yet and sendeth messengers unto the king of the Bene-Ammon, ¹⁵ and saith to him, `Thus said Jephthah, Israel took not the land of Moab, and the land of the Bene-Ammon, ¹⁶ for in their coming up out of Egypt, Israel goeth in the wilderness unto the Red Sea, and cometh in to Kadesh, ¹⁷ and Israel sendeth messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me pass over, I pray thee, through thy land, and the king of Edom hearkened not; and also unto the king of Moab hath Israel sent, and he hath not been willing; and Israel abideth in Kadesh, ¹⁸ and he goeth through the wilderness, and compasseth the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and cometh in at the rising of the sun of the land of Moab, and they encamp beyond Arnon, and have not come into the border of Moab, for Arnon is the border of Moab. ¹⁹ `And Israel sendeth messengers unto Sihon, king of the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and Israel saith to him, Let us pass over, we pray thee, through thy land, unto my place, ²⁰ and Sihon hath not trusted Israel to pass over through his border, and Sihon gathereth all his people, and they encamp in Jahaz, and fight with Israel; ²¹ and Jehovah, God of Israel, giveth Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smite them, and Israel possesseth all the land of the Amorite, the inhabitant of that land, ²² and they possess all the border of the Amorite from Arnon, and unto the Jabbok, and from the wilderness, and unto the Jordan. ²³ `And now, Jehovah, God of Israel, hath dispossessed the Amorite from the presence of His people Israel, and thou wouldest possess it! ²⁴ That which Chemosh thy god causeth thee to possess—dost thou not possess it? and all that which Jehovah our God hath dispossessed from our presence, —it we do possess. ²⁵ `And now, art thou at all better than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he at all strive with Israel? did he at all fight against them? ²⁶ In Israel's dwelling in Heshbon and in its towns, and in Aroer and in its towns, and in all the cities which are by the sides of Arnon three hundred years—and wherefore have ye not delivered them in that time? ²⁷ And I—I have not sinned against thee, and thou art doing with me evil—to fight against me. Jehovah, the Judge, doth judge to-day between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon.' ²⁸ And the king of the Bene-Ammon hath not hearkened unto the words of Jephthah which he sent unto him,
²⁹ and the Spirit of Jehovah is on Jephthah, and he passeth over Gilead and Manasseh, and passeth over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he hath passed over to the Bene-Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah voweth a vow to Jehovah, and saith, `If Thou dost at all give the Bene-Ammon into my hand— ³¹ then it hath been, that which at all cometh out from the doors of my house to meet me in my turning back in peace from the Bene-Ammon—it hath been to Jehovah, or I have offered up for it—a burnt-offering.' ³² And Jephthah passeth over unto the Bene-Ammon to fight against them, and Jehovah giveth them into his hand, ³³ and he smiteth them from Aroer, and unto thy going in to Minnith, twenty cities, and unto the meadow of the vineyards—a very great smiting; and the Bene-Ammon are humbled at the presence of the sons of Israel.

JuliaSmith⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah will send messengers to the king of the sons of Ammon, saying, What to me and to thee that thou camest to me to war in my land ¹³ And the king of the sons of Ammon will say to the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took my land in his coming up out of Egypt, from Arnon even to Jabbok, and even to Jordan: and now turn them back in peace. ¹⁴ And Jephthah will add yet and will send messengers to the king of the sons of Ammon: ¹⁵ And he will say to him, Thus said Jephthah, Israel took not the land of Moab and the land of the sons of Ammon: ¹⁶ When in their coming up out of Egypt, and Israel went in the desert, even to the sea of sedge, and he will come to Kadesh; ¹⁷ And Israel will send messengers to the king of Edom, saying, I will pass through now in thy land: and the king of Edom heard not And also to the king of Moab he sent; and he was not willing. And Israel dwelt in Kadesh. ¹⁸ And he will go into the wilderness, and he will encompass the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and he will come from the rising of the sun to the land of Moab, and they will encamp beyond Arnon; and they went not in to the bound of Moab, for Arnon is the bound of Moah ¹⁹ And Israel will send messengers to Sihon, king of the Amorites, king of Heshbon; and Israel will say to him, We will pass now through in thy land, even to my place. ²⁰ And Sihon trusted not Israel to pass through in his bound; and Sihon will gather together all his people and will encamp in Jahaz, and he will war with Israel. ²¹ And Jehovah the God of Israel will give Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they will smite them: and Israel will inherit all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that land. ²² And they will inherit all the bound of the Amorites from Arnon and even to Jabbok, and from the desert and even to Jordan. ²³ And now Jehovah the God of Israel drove out the Amorites from the face of his people Israel, and shalt thou inherit it? ²⁴ Shalt thou not inherit what Chemosh thy god will give thee to inherit? and all which Jehovah our God drove out from our face, we will inherit it. ²⁵ And now being good, art thou good above Balak, son of Zippor, king of Moab? striving, did he contend with Israel, or warring, did he war against them. ²⁶ In Israel's dwelling in Heshbon and her daughters and in Aroer and her daughters, and in all the cities which are upon the hands of Arnon, three hundred years? and why took ye not them away in that time? ²⁷ And I sinned not against thee, and thou didst me evil to war against me: Jehovah the Judge will judge this day between the sons of Israel and between the sons of Ammon. ²⁸ And the king of the sons of Ammon heard not to the words of Jephthah which he sent to him. ²⁹ And the spirit of Jehovah will be upon Jephthah, and he will pass through Gilead and Manasseh, and he will pass through Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over to the sons of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah will vow a vow to Jehovah, and he will say, If giving, thou wilt give the sons of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ And it was, that coming forth which shall come forth from the doors of my house to my meeting in my turning back in peace from the sons of Ammon, and it was to Jehovah; and I brought it up a burnt-offering. ³² And Jephthah will pass over to the sons of Ammon to war against them: and Jehovah will give them into his hand. ³³ And he will strike them from Aroer even to thy going to Minnith, twenty cities, and even to the meadow of the vineyards, with a very great smiting. And the sons of Ammon will be subdued from the face of the sons of Israel.

And Israel abode in Kadesh. ¹⁸ And they walked through the wilderness, and went round the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and came by the east of the land of Moab, and encamped beyond the Arnon, but came not within the border of Moab, for the Arnon is the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon, and Israel said to him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land unto my place. ²⁰ But Sihon trusted not Israel, to let him pass through his border, and Sihon gathered all his people, and they encamped in Jahzah; and he fought with Israel. ²¹ And Jehovah the God of Israel gave Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them; and Israel took possession of the whole land of the Amorites, who dwelt in that country. ²² And they possessed all the borders of the Amorites, from the Arnon unto the Jabbok, and from the wilderness unto the Jordan. ²³ And now Jehovah the God of Israel has dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and shouldest thou take possession of it? ²⁴ Dost not thou possess what Chemosh thy god puts thee in possession of? and whatever Jehovah our God has dispossessed before us, that will we possess. ²⁵ And now art thou indeed better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he ever strive with Israel? did he ever fight against them? ²⁶ While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and its dependent villages, and in Aroer and its dependent villages, and in all the cities that are along the banks of the Arnon, three hundred years -- why did ye not recover [them] within that time? ²⁷ So I have not sinned against thee, but it is thou who doest me wrong in making war against me. Jehovah, the Judge, be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon! ²⁸ But the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not to the words of Jephthah that he had sent him. ²⁹ Then the Spirit of Jehovah came upon Jephthah, and he passed through Gilead and Manasseh, and passed to Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over to the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow to Jehovah, and said, If thou wilt without fail give the children of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then shall that which cometh forth from the door of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, be Jehovah`s, and I will offer it up for a burnt-offering. ³² And Jephthah passed over to the children of Ammon to fight against them; and Jehovah gave them into his hand. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer until thou come to Minnith, twenty cities, even unto Abel-Cheramim, with a very great slaughter; and the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.

And in like manner he sent unto the king of Moab: but he would not: and Israel abode in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then he walked through the wilderness, and compassed the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and they pitched on the other side of Arnon; but they came not within the border of Moab, for Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said unto him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land unto my place. ²⁰ But Sihon trusted not Israel to pass through his border: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and pitched in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. ²¹ And the LORD, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them: so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. ²² And they possessed all the border of the Amorites, from Arnon even unto Jabbok, and from the wilderness even unto Jordan. ²³ So now the LORD, the God of Israel, hath dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and shouldest thou possess them? ²⁴ Wilt not thou possess that which Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess? So whomsoever the LORD our God hath dispossessed from before us, them will we possess. ²⁵ And now art thou any thing better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them? ²⁶ While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and her towns, and in Aroer and her towns, and in all the cities that are along by the side of Arnon, three hundred years; wherefore did ye not recover them within that time? ²⁷ I therefore have not sinned against thee, but thou doest me wrong to war against me: the LORD, the Judge, be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ Howbeit the king of the children Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah which he sent him. ²⁹ Then the spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver the children of Ammon into mine hand, ³¹ then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, it shall be the LORD’S, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering. ³² So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer until thou come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and unto Abel-cheramim, with a very great slaughter.

And in like manner he sent unto the king of Moab; but he would not: and Israel abode in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then they went through the wilderness, and went around the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and they encamped on the other side of the Arnon; but they came not within the border of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said unto him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land unto my place. ²⁰ But Sihon trusted not Israel to pass through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and encamped in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. ²¹ And Jehovah, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them: so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. ²² And they possessed all the border of the Amorites, from the Arnon even unto the Jabbok, and from the wilderness even unto the Jordan. ²³ So now Jehovah, the God of Israel, hath dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and shouldest thou possess them? ²⁴ Wilt not thou possess that which Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess? So whomsoever Jehovah our God hath dispossessed from before us, them will we possess. ²⁵ And now art thou anything better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them? ²⁶ While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and its towns, and in Aroer and its towns, and in all the cities that are along by the side of the Arnon, three hundred years; wherefore did ye not recover them within that time? ²⁷ I therefore have not sinned against thee, but thou doest me wrong to war against me: Jehovah, the Judge, be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ Howbeit the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah which he sent him.
²⁹ Then the Spirit of Jehovah came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow unto Jehovah, and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth from the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, it shall be Jehovah's, and I will offer it up for a burnt-offering. ³² So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against them; and Jehovah delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer until thou come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and unto Abel-cheramim, with a very great slaughter. So the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.

12 H3316 And Jephthah H7971 sent H4397 messengers H4428 unto the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon, H559 saying, H935 What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come H3898 unto me to fight H776 against my land?

13 H4428 And the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H559 answered H4397 unto the messengers H3316 of Jephthah, H3478 Because Israel H3947 took away H776 my land, H5927 when he came up H4714 out of Egypt, H769 from the Arnon H2999 even unto the Jabbok, H3383 and unto the Jordan: H7725 now therefore restore those lands again H7965 peaceably.

14 H3316 And Jephthah H7971 sent H4397 messengers H3254 again H4428 unto the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon;

15 H559 and he said H559 unto him, Thus saith H3316 Jephthah: H3478 Israel H3947 took not away H776 the land H4124 of Moab, H776 nor the land H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon,

16 H5927 but when they came up H4714 from Egypt, H3478 and Israel H3212 went H4057 through the wilderness H5488 unto the Red H3220 Sea, H935 and came H6946 to Kadesh;

17 H3478 then Israel H7971 sent H4397 messengers H4428 unto the king H123 of Edom, H559 saying, H5674 Let me, I pray thee, pass through H776 thy land; H4428 but the king H123 of Edom H8085 hearkened H7971 not. And in like manner he sent H4428 unto the king H4124 of Moab; H14 but he would H3478 not: and Israel H3427 abode H6946 in Kadesh.

18 H3212 Then they went through H4057 the wilderness, H5437 and went around H776 the land H123 of Edom, H776 and the land H4124 of Moab, H935 and came H4217 by the east side H776 of the land H4124 of Moab, H2583 and they encamped H5676 on the other side H769 of the Arnon; H935 but they came H1366 not within the border H4124 of Moab, H769 for the Arnon H1366 was the border H4124 of Moab.

19 H3478 And Israel H7971 sent H4397 messengers H5511 unto Sihon H4428 king H567 of the Amorites, H4428 the king H2809 of Heshbon; H3478 and Israel H559 said H5674 unto him, Let us pass, H776 we pray thee, through thy land H5704 unto H4725 my place.

20 H5511 But Sihon H539 trusted H3478 not Israel H5674 to pass H1366 through his border; H5511 but Sihon H622 gathered H5971 all his people H622 together, H2583 and encamped H3096 in Jahaz, H3898 and fought H3478 against Israel.

21 H3068 And Jehovah, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H5414 delivered H5511 Sihon H5971 and all his people H3027 into the hand H3478 of Israel, H5221 and they smote H3478 them: so Israel H3423 possessed H776 all the land H567 of the Amorites, H3427 the inhabitants H776 of that country.

22 H3423 And they possessed H1366 all the border H567 of the Amorites, H769 from the Arnon H2999 even unto the Jabbok, H4057 and from the wilderness H3383 even unto the Jordan.

23 H3068 So now Jehovah, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H3423 hath dispossessed H567 the Amorites H6440 from before H5971 his people H3478 Israel, H3423 and shouldest thou possess them?

24 H3423 Wilt not thou possess H3645 that which Chemosh H430 thy god H3423 giveth thee to possess? H3068 So whomsoever Jehovah H430 our God H3423 hath dispossessed H6440 from before H3423 us, them will we possess.

25 H2896 And now art thou anything better H1111 than Balak H1121 the son H6834 of Zippor, H4428 king H4124 of Moab? H7378 did he ever H7378 strive H3478 against Israel, H7378 or did he ever H3898 fight against them?

26 H3478 While Israel H3427 dwelt H2809 in Heshbon H1323 and its towns, H6177 and in Aroer H1323 and its towns, H5892 and in all the cities H3027 that are along by the side H769 of the Arnon, H7969 three H3967 hundred H8141 years; H5337 wherefore did ye not recover H6256 them within that time?

27 H2398 I therefore have not sinned H6213 against thee, but thou doest H7451 me wrong H3898 to war H3068 against me: Jehovah, H8199 the Judge, H8199 be judge H3117 this day H1121 between the children H3478 of Israel H1121 and the children H5983 of Ammon.

28 H4428 Howbeit the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H8085 hearkened H1697 not unto the words H3316 of Jephthah H7971 which he sent him.

29 H7307 Then the Spirit H3068 of Jehovah H3316 came upon Jephthah, H5674 and he passed over H1568 Gilead H4519 and Manasseh, H5674 and passed over H4708 Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead, H4708 and from Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead H5674 he passed over H1121 unto the children H5983 of Ammon.

30 H3316 And Jephthah H5087 vowed H5088 a vow H3068 unto Jehovah, H559 and said, H5414 If thou wilt indeed H5414 deliver H1121 the children H5983 of Ammon H3027 into my hand,

31 H3318 then it shall be, that whatsoever H3318 cometh forth H1817 from the doors H1004 of my house H7125 to meet H7725 me, when I return H7965 in peace H1121 from the children H5983 of Ammon, H3068 it shall be Jehovah's, H5927 and I will offer it up H5930 for a burnt-offering.

32 H3316 So Jephthah H5674 passed over H1121 unto the children H5983 of Ammon H3898 to fight H3068 against them; and Jehovah H5414 delivered H3027 them into his hand.

33 H5221 And he smote H6177 them from Aroer H935 until thou come H4511 to Minnith, H6242 even twenty H5892 cities, H58 and unto H3754 Abel-cheramim, H3966 with a very H1419 great H4347 slaughter. H1121 So the children H5983 of Ammon H3665 were subdued H6440 before H1121 the children H3478 of Israel.

JPS_ASV_Byz⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sent messengers unto the king of the children of Ammon, saying: 'What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come unto me to fight against my land?' ¹³ And the king of the children of Ammon answered unto the messengers of Jephthah: 'Because Israel took away my land, when he came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even unto the Jabbok, and unto the Jordan; now therefore restore those cities peaceably.' ¹⁴ And Jephthah sent messengers again unto the king of the children of Ammon; ¹⁵ and he said unto him: 'Thus saith Jephthah: Israel took not away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon. ¹⁶ But when they came up from Egypt, and Israel walked through the wilderness unto the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh; ¹⁷ then Israel sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying: Let me, I pray thee, pass through thy land; but the king of Edom hearkened not. And in like manner he sent unto the king of Moab; but he would not; and Israel abode in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then he walked through the wilderness, and compassed the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and they pitched on the other side of the Arnon; but they came not within the border of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said unto him: Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land unto my place. ²⁰ But Sihon trusted not Israel to pass through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and pitched in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. ²¹ And the LORD, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them; so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. ²² And they possessed all the border of the Amorites, from the Arnon even unto the Jabbok, and from the wilderness even unto the Jordan. ²³ So now the LORD, the God of Israel, hath dispossessed the Amorites from before His people Israel, and shouldest thou possess them? ²⁴ Wilt not thou possess that which Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess? So whomsoever the LORD our God hath dispossessed from before us, them will we possess. ²⁵ And now art thou any thing better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them? ²⁶ While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and its towns, and in Aroer and its towns, and in all the cities that are along by the side of the Arnon, three hundred years; wherefore did ye not recover them within that time? ²⁷ I therefore have not sinned against thee, but thou doest me wrong to war against me; the LORD, the Judge, be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon.' ²⁸ Howbeit the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah which he sent him. ²⁹ Then the spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said: 'If Thou wilt indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, it shall be the LORD'S, and I will offer it up for a burnt-offering.' ³² So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer until thou come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and unto Abel-cheramim, with a very great slaughter. So the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² So then Jephthah sent messengers unto the king of the sons of Ammon, saying,––What occasion is there between us, that thou shouldst have come unto me, to fight against my land? ¹³ And the king of the sons of Ammon said unto the messengers of Jephthah––Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even unto the Jabbok, and unto the Jordan,––now, therefore, restore them in peace. ¹⁴ And Jephthah yet once more sent messengers unto the king of the sons of Ammon; ¹⁵ and said unto him, Thus, saith Jephthah,––Israel took not away the land of Moab, or the land of the sons of Ammon; ¹⁶ for, when they came up out of Egypt, and Israel journeyed through the desert as far as the Red Sea, and came in unto Kadesh, ¹⁷ then did Israel send messengers unto the king of Edom, saying––Let me pass, I pray thee, through thy land, but the king of Edom hearkened not, unto the king of Moab also, sent they, but he would not consent,––so Israel abode in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then journeyed they through the desert, and went round the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and so came, from the rising of the sun, to the land of Moab, but encamped beyond Arnon,––and entered not within the boundary of Moab, for, Arnon, is the boundary of Moab. ¹⁹ Then did Israel send messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, king of Heshbon,––and Israel said unto him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land as far as my own place. ²⁰ But Sihon trusted not Israel, to pass through his boundary, so Sihon gathered together all his people, and encamped in Jahaz,––and fought against Israel. ²¹ Then did Yahweh, God of Israel, deliver up Sihon, and all his people, into the hand of Israel, and they smote them,––so Israel took possession of all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that land. ²² Yea they took possession of all the territory of the Amorites,––from Arnon, even as far as the Jabbok, and from the desert, even as far as the Jordan. ²³ Now, therefore, it was, Yahweh God of Israel, that dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel,––and shalt, thou, possess it? ²⁴ What Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess, that, wilt thou not possess? and, whatsoever Yahweh our God hath set before us to possess, that, shall we not possess? ²⁵ Now, therefore, art thou, really better, than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? Hath there been any, striving at all, with Israel, or any, fighting at all, with them, ²⁶ all the time that Israel hath been dwelling in Heshbon and in her towns, and in Aroer and in her towns, and in all the cities that are on the banks of Arnon,––for three hundred years? Wherefore, then, have ye not made a rescue within that time? ²⁷ I, therefore, have not sinned against thee; but, thou, art doing me a wrong, in fighting against me,––Let Yahweh, the Judge, give judgment today, between the sons of Israel, and the sons of Ammon! ²⁸ But the king of the sons of Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah, which he sent unto him.
²⁹ Then came upon Jephthah the spirit of Yahweh, and he passed through Gilead and Manasseh,––and passed through Mizpeh of Gilead, and, from Mizpeh of Gilead, he passed through [unto] the sons of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow unto Yahweh, and said,––If thou wilt, deliver, the sons of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then shall it be, that, whosoever cometh forth out of the doors of my house, to meet me, when I return successful, from the sons of Ammon, shall belong unto Yahweh, and I will offer him up, as an ascending–sacrifice. ³² So then Jephthah passed over unto the sons of Ammon, to fight against them,––and Yahweh delivered them into his hand; ³³ and he smote them, from Aroer even till thou enterest in to Minnith, even twenty cities, and as far as Abel–keramim, with an exceeding great smiting,––and thus were the sons of Ammon subdued before the sons of Israel.

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sends messengers unto the king of the Bene-Ammon, saying, `What--to me and to you, that you have come in unto me, to fight in my land.. ¹³ And the king of the Bene-Ammon said unto the messengers of Jephthah, `Because Israel took my land in his coming up out of Egypt, from Arnon, and unto the Jabbok, and unto the Jordan; and now, restore them in peace.. ¹⁴ And Jephthah adds yet and sends messengers unto the king of the Bene-Ammon, ¹⁵ and said to him, `Thus said Jephthah, Israel took not the land of Moab, and the land of the Bene-Ammon, ¹⁶ for in their coming up out of Egypt, Israel goes in the wilderness unto the Red Sea, and comes in to Kadesh, ¹⁷ and Israel sends messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me pass over, I pray you, through your land, and the king of Edom hearkened not; and also unto the king of Moab has [Israel] sent, and he has not been willing; and Israel abides in Kadesh, ¹⁸ and he goes through the wilderness, and compasses the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and comes in at the rising of the sun of the land of Moab, and they encamp beyond Arnon, and have not come into the border of Moab, for Arnon [is] the border of Moab. ¹⁹ `And Israel sends messengers unto Sihon, king of the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and Israel said to him, Let us pass over, we pray you, through your land, unto my place, ²⁰ and Sihon has not trusted Israel to pass over through his border, and Sihon gathers all his people, and they encamp in Jahaz, and fight with Israel;" ²¹ and Yahweh, Elohim of Israel, gives Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smite them, and Israel possesses all the land of the Amorite, the inhabitant of that land, ²² and they possess all the border of the Amorite from Arnon, and unto the Jabbok, and from the wilderness, and unto the Jordan. ²³ `And now, Yahweh, Elohim of Israel, has dispossessed the Amorite from the presence of His people Israel, and you would possess it!" ²⁴ That which Chemosh your elohim causes you to possess--do you not possess it? and all that which Yahweh our Elohim has dispossessed from our presence, --it we do possess. ²⁵ `And now, [are] you at all better than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he at all strive with Israel? did he at all fight against them? ²⁶ In Israel's dwelling in Heshbon and in its towns, and in Aroer and in its towns, and in all the cities which [are] by the sides of Arnon three hundred years--and wherefore have you not delivered them in that time? ²⁷ And I--I have not sinned against you, and you are doing with me evil--to fight against me. Yahweh, the Judge, does judge to-day between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon.. ²⁸ And the king of the Bene-Ammon has not hearkened unto the words of Jephthah which he sent unto him, ²⁹ and the Spirit of Yahweh is on Jephthah, and he passes over Gilead and Manasseh, and passes over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he has passed over to the Bene-Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vows a vow to Yahweh, and said, `If You do at all give the Bene-Ammon into my hand-. ³¹ then it has been, that which at all comes out from the doors of my house to meet me in my turning back in peace from the Bene-Ammon--it has been to Yahweh, or I have offered up for it--a burnt-offering.. ³² And Jephthah passes over unto the Bene-Ammon to fight against them, and Yahweh gives them into his hand, ³³ and he smites them from Aroer, and unto your going in to Minnith, twenty cities, and unto the meadow of the vineyards--a very great smiting; and the Bene-Ammon are humbled at the presence of the sons of Israel.

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Then Jephthah sent men to the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What have you against me that you have come to make war against my land? ¹³ And the king of the children of Ammon said to the men sent by Jephthah, Because Israel, when he came up out of Egypt, took away my land, from the Arnon as far as the Jabbok and as far as Jordan: so now, give me back those lands quietly. ¹⁴ And Jephthah sent again to the king of the children of Ammon, ¹⁵ And said to him, This is the word of Jephthah: Israel did not take away the land of Moab or the land of the children of Ammon; ¹⁶ But when they came up from Egypt, Israel went through the waste land to the Red Sea and came to Kadesh; ¹⁷ Then Israel sent men to the king of Edom saying, Let me now go through your land; but the king of Edom did not give ear to them. And in the same way he sent to the king of Moab, but he would not; so Israel went on living in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then he went on through the waste land and round the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and put up their tents on the other side of the Arnon; they did not come inside the limit of Moab, for the Arnon was the limit of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent men to Sihon, king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said to him, Let me now go through your land to my place. ²⁰ But Sihon would not give way and let Israel go through his land; and Sihon got together all his people, and put his army in position in Jahaz, and made war on Israel. ²¹ And the Lord, the God of Israel, gave Sihon and all his people into the hands of Israel, and they overcame them; so all the land of the Amorites, the people of that land, became Israel's. ²² All the limit of the Amorites was theirs, from the Arnon as far as the Jabbok and from the waste land even to Jordan. ²³ So now the Lord, the God of Israel, has taken away their land from the Amorites and given it to his people Israel; are you then to have it? ²⁴ Do you not keep the lands of those whom Chemosh your god sends out from before you? So we will keep all the lands of those whom the Lord our God sends out from before us. ²⁵ What! are you any better than Balak, the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever take up a cause against Israel or make war against them? ²⁶ While Israel was living in Heshbon and its daughter-towns and in Aroer and its daughter-towns and in all the towns which are by the side of the Arnon, for three hundred years, why did you not get them back at that time? ²⁷ So I have done no wrong against you, but you are doing wrong to me in fighting against me: may the Lord, who is Judge this day, be judge between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ The king of the children of Ammon, however, did not give ear to the words which Jephthah sent to him. ²⁹ Then the spirit of the Lord came on Jephthah, and he went through Gilead and Manasseh, and came to Mizpeh of Gilead; and from Mizpeh of Gilead he went over to the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah took an oath to the Lord, and said, If you will give the children of Ammon into my hands, ³¹ Then whoever comes out from the door of my house, meeting me when I come back in peace from the children of Ammon, will be the Lord's and I will give him as a burned offering. ³² So Jephthah went over to the children of Ammon to make war on them; and the Lord gave them into his hands. ³³ And he made an attack on them from Aroer all the way to Minnith, overrunning twenty towns, as far as Abel-cheramim, and put great numbers to the sword. So the children of Ammon were crushed before the children of Israel.

MKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the sons of Ammon, saying, What have you to do with me, that you have come against me to fight in my land? ¹³ And the king of the sons of Ammon answered to the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even to Jabbok, and to Jordan. Now therefore restore those lands peaceably. ¹⁴ And Jephthah sent messengers again to the king of the sons of Ammon. ¹⁵ And he said to him, So says Jephthah, Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the sons of Ammon. ¹⁶ But when they came up from Egypt, Israel walked through the wilderness to the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh. ¹⁷ And Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, I pray you, let me pass through your land. But the king of Edom would not listen. And in the same way they sent to the king of Moab, but he would not. And Israel stayed in Kadesh. ¹⁸ And they went along through the wilderness, and went around the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab and pitched on the other side of Arnon, but they did not come within the border of Moab; for Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon. And Israel said to him, We pray you, let us pass through your land to my place. ²⁰ But Sihon did not trust Israel to pass through his border. But Sihon gathered all his people together and pitched in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. ²¹ And Jehovah, the God of Israel delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they struck them. So Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, who lived in that country. ²² And they possessed all the borders of the Amorites, from Arnon even to Jabbok, and from the wilderness even to Jordan. ²³ So now Jehovah, the God of Israel has put out the Amorites before His people Israel, and should you possess it? ²⁴ Will you not possess that which Chemosh your god gives you to possess? So whomever Jehovah our God shall drive out from before us, we will possess them. ²⁵ And now are you any better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them ²⁶ when Israel lived in Heshbon and its villages, and Aroer and its villages, and in all the cities which are along by the borders of Arnon, for three hundred years? Why then did you not deliver them in that time? ²⁷ So I have not sinned against you, but you do me wrong to war against me. Jehovah, the Judge, will judge this day between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon. ²⁸ And the king of the sons of Ammon did not listen to the words of Jephthah which he sent to him. ²⁹ Then the Spirit of Jehovah came on Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead passed over to the sons of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow to Jehovah, and said, If You will indeed give the sons of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then it shall be that whatever comes out from the doors of my house to meet me when I return in peace from the sons of Ammon, surely it shall belong to Jehovah, or I will offer it up instead of a burnt offering. ³² And Jephthah passed over to the sons of Ammon to fight against them. And Jehovah delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he struck them from Aroer even until you come to Minnith, twenty cities, and to the meadow of the vineyards, with a very great slaughter. So were the sons of Ammon subdued before the sons of Israel.

LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the sons of Ammon, saying, What have you to do with me, that you have come in to me to fight in my land? ¹³ And the king of the sons of Ammon said to the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took my land when he came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even to the Jabbok, and to the Jordan. And now, restore them in peace. ¹⁴ And Jephthah again sent messengers to the king of the sons of Ammon, ¹⁵ and said to him, So says Jephthah, Israel did not take the land of Moab, and the land of the sons of Ammon. ¹⁶ For when they came up out of Egypt, Israel went in the wilderness to the Sea of Reeds, and came in at Kadesh. ¹⁷ And Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, Please let me pass on through your land, and the king of Edom did not listen. And Israel sent also to the king of Moab, and he was not willing. And Israel remained in Kadesh. ¹⁸ And he went through the wilderness, and went around the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came in at the rising of the sun to the land of Moab. And they camped beyond Arnon, and did not come into the border of Moab, for Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers to Sihon, the king of the Amorites the king of Heshbon, and Israel said to him, Please let us pass on through your land, to my place. ²⁰ And Sihon did not trust Israel to pass on through his border. And Sihon gathered all his people and they camped in Jahaz, and fought with Israel. ²¹ And Jehovah the God of Israel gave Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they struck them. And Israel took possession of all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that land. ²² And they took possession of all the border of the Amorites from Arnon and to the Jabbok, and from the wilderness, and to the Jordan. ²³ And now, Jehovah the God of Israel has expelled the Amorite from before His people Israel. And would you possess it? ²⁴ Whatever Chemosh your god causes you to possess, do you not possess it? And all that which Jehovah our God has expelled from before us, we will possess! ²⁵ And now, are you at all any better than Balak the son of Zippor, the king of Moab? Did he indeed ever strive with Israel? Did he ever fight against them? ²⁶ When Israel lived in Heshbon and its towns, and in Aroer and in its towns, in all the cities by the sides of Arnon three hundred years, then why have you not delivered them in that time? ²⁷ So I have not sinned against you, and you are doing me wrong to fight against me. Jehovah the Judge shall judge today between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon. ²⁸ And the king of the sons of Ammon did not listen to he words of Jephthah which he sent to him. ²⁹ And the Spirit of Jehovah was on Jephthah. And he passed through Gilead and Manasseh, and passed through Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed on to the sons of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow to Jehovah, and said, If You will indeed give the sons of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then it shall be that anything which comes out from the doors of my house to meet me when I return in peace from the sons of Amnion, it shall belong to Jehovah; and I will offer it instead of a burnt offering. ³² And Jephthah passed over to the sons of Ammon to fight against them. And Jehovah delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he struck them from Aroer until you come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and to the meadow of the vineyards, a very great destruction. And the sons of Ammon were humbled before the sons of Israel.

ECB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Yiphtach sends angels to the sovereign of the sons of Ammon, saying, What have you to do with me, that you are come to me to fight me in my land? ¹³ And the sovereign of the sons of Ammon says to the angels of Yiphtach, Because Yisra El took away my land, when they ascended from Misrayim, from Arnon to Yabboq and to Yarden: now restore them in shalom. ¹⁴
JUDGE YIPHTACH DEFENDS THE HONOR OF YISRA EL
And Yiphtach adds to send angels to the sovereign of the sons of Ammon: ¹⁵ and says to him, Thus says Yiphtach, Yisra El took neither the land of Moab nor the land of the sons of Ammon: ¹⁶ for in ascending from Misrayim Yisra El walked through the wilderness to the Reed sea and came to Qadesh. ¹⁷ And Yisra El sent angels to the sovereign of Edom, saying, Let me, I beseech you, pass through your land? And the sovereign of Edom hearkened not thereto: and also the sovereign of Moab; and he willed not: and Yisra El settled in Qadesh. ¹⁸ And he went through the wilderness and surrounded the land of Edom and the land of Moab and came by the rising of the sun of the land of Moab and encamped beyond Arnon; but came not within the border of Moab: for Arnon is the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Yisra El sent angels to Sichon sovereign of the Emoriy the sovereign of Heshbon; and Yisra El said to him, Let us pass, we beseech you, through your land to my place? ²⁰ And Sichon trusted not Yisra El to pass through his border: but Sichon gathered all his people together and encamped in Yahsah and fought Yisra El: ²¹ and Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El gave Sichon and all his people into the hand of Yisra El; and they smote them: so Yisra El possesses all the land of the Emoriy - the settlers of that land. ²² And they possess all the borders of the Emoriy from Arnon to Yabboq and from the wilderness to Yarden. ²³ And now Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El dispossesses the Emoriy from the face of his people Yisra El - that you possess it? ²⁴ Possess you not what Kemosh your elohim gave you to possess? So whomever Yah Veh our Elohim dispossesses from our face, them we possess. ²⁵ And now are you any better than Balaq the son of Sippor sovereign of Moab? in striving, strives he against Yisra El? or in fighting, fights he against them ²⁶ - while Yisra El settles in Heshbon and her daughters and in Aroer and her daughters and in all the cities along by the hand of Arnon for three hundred years? Why rescue you not them within that time? ²⁷ I - I sin not against you; but you work me evil to fight me: Yah Veh the Judge judges this day between the sons of Yisra El and between the sons of Ammon. ²⁸ The sovereign of the sons of Ammon hearkens not to the words Yiphtach sends him: ²⁹ and the Spirit of Yah Veh comes on Yiphtach: and he passes over Gilad and Menash Sheh and passes over Mispeh of Gilad; and from Mispeh of Gilad he passes over the sons of Ammon. ³⁰
THE VOW OF JUDGE YIPHTACH
And Yiphtach vows a vow to Yah Veh and says, If in giving you give the sons of Ammon into my hands, ³¹ then so be it, whatever comes from the doors of my house to meet me when I return in shalom from the sons of Ammon becomes to Yah Veh; and I holocaust it for a holocaust. ³² So Yiphtach passes over to the sons of Ammon to fight them; and Yah Veh gives them into his hands: ³³ he smites them from Aroer until you come to Minnith - twenty cities and to Abel Keramin with a mighty great stroke. Thus he subdues the sons of Ammon at the face of the sons of Yisra El.

ACV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the sons of Ammon, saying, What have thou to do with me, that thou have come to me to fight against my land? ¹³ And the king of the sons of Ammon answered to the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land when he came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and to the Jordan. Now therefore restore those lands again peaceably. ¹⁴ And Jephthah sent messengers again to the king of the sons of Ammon. ¹⁵ And he said to him, Thus says Jephthah: Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the sons of Ammon, ¹⁶ but when they came up from Egypt, and Israel went through the wilderness to the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh, ¹⁷ then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, pass through thy land, but the king of Edom did not hearken. And in like manner he sent to the king of Moab, but he would not. And Israel abode in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then they went through the wilderness, and went around the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab. And they encamped on the other side of the Arnon, but they did not come within the border of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon. And Israel said to him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land to my place. ²⁰ But Sihon did not trust Israel to pass through his border, but Sihon gathered all his people together, and encamped in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. ²¹ And LORD, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them. So Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. ²² And they possessed all the border of the Amorites, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and from the wilderness even to the Jordan. ²³ So now LORD, the God of Israel, has dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and should thou possess them? ²⁴ Will thou not possess that which Chemosh thy god gives thee to possess? So whomever LORD our God has dispossessed from before us, them will we possess. ²⁵ And now are thou anything better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them? ²⁶ While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and its towns, and in Aroer and its towns, and in all the cities that are along by the side of the Arnon, three hundred years, why did ye not recover them within that time? ²⁷ I therefore have not sinned against thee, but thou do me wrong to war against me. LORD, the Judge, be judge this day between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon. ²⁸ However the king of the sons of Ammon did not hearken to the words of Jephthah which he sent him. ²⁹ Then the Spirit of LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over to the sons of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow to LORD, and said, If thou will indeed deliver the sons of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then it shall be, that whatever comes forth from the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the sons of Ammon, it shall be LORD's, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering. ³² So Jephthah passed over to the sons of Ammon to fight against them, and LORD delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer until thou come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and to Abelcheramim, with a very great slaughter. So the sons of Ammon were subdued before the sons of Israel.

12 H3316 Jephthah H7971 sent H4397 messengers H4428 to the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon, H559 saying, H935 "What have you to do with me, that you have come H3898 to me to fight H776 against my land?"

13 H4428 The king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H559 answered H4397 to the messengers H3316 of Jephthah, H3478 "Because Israel H3947 took away H776 my land, H5927 when he came up H4714 out of Egypt, H769 from the Arnon H2999 even to the Jabbok, H3383 and to the Jordan: H7725 now therefore restore that territory again H7965 peaceably."

14 H3316 Jephthah H7971 sent H4397 messengers H3254 again H4428 to the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon;

15 H559 and he said H559 to him, "Thus says H3316 Jephthah: H3478 Israel H3947 didn't take away H776 the land H4124 of Moab, H776 nor the land H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon,

16 H5927 but when they came up H4714 from Egypt, H3478 and Israel H3212 went H4057 through the wilderness H5488 to the Red H3220 Sea, H935 and came H6946 to Kadesh;

17 H3478 then Israel H7971 sent H4397 messengers H4428 to the king H123 of Edom, H559 saying, H5674 ‘Please let me pass through H776 your land;' H4428 but the king H123 of Edom H8085 didn't listen. H7971 In the same way, he sent H4428 to the king H4124 of Moab; H14 but he would H3478 not: and Israel H3427 stayed H6946 in Kadesh.

18 H3212 Then they went through H4057 the wilderness, H5437 and went around H776 the land H123 of Edom, H776 and the land H4124 of Moab, H935 and came H4217 by the east side H776 of the land H4124 of Moab, H2583 and they encamped H5676 on the other side H769 of the Arnon; H935 but they didn't come H1366 within the border H4124 of Moab, H769 for the Arnon H1366 was the border H4124 of Moab.

19 H3478 Israel H7971 sent H4397 messengers H5511 to Sihon H4428 king H567 of the Amorites, H4428 the king H2809 of Heshbon; H3478 and Israel H559 said H5674 to him, ‘Please let us pass H776 through your land H5704 to H4725 my place.'

20 H5511 But Sihon H539 didn't trust H3478 Israel H5674 to pass H1366 through his border; H5511 but Sihon H622 gathered H5971 all his people H622 together, H2583 and encamped H3096 in Jahaz, H3898 and fought H3478 against Israel.

21 H3068 Yahweh, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H5414 delivered H5511 Sihon H5971 and all his people H3027 into the hand H3478 of Israel, H5221 and they struck H3478 them: so Israel H3423 possessed H776 all the land H567 of the Amorites, H3427 the inhabitants H776 of that country.

22 H3423 They possessed H1366 all the border H567 of the Amorites, H769 from the Arnon H2999 even to the Jabbok, H4057 and from the wilderness H3383 even to the Jordan.

23 H3068 So now Yahweh, H430 the God H3478 of Israel, H3423 has dispossessed H567 the Amorites H6440 from before H5971 his people H3478 Israel, H3423 and should you possess them?

24 H3423 Won't you possess H3645 that which Chemosh H430 your god H3423 gives you to possess? H3068 So whoever Yahweh H430 our God H3423 has dispossessed H6440 from before H3423 us, them will we possess.

25 H2896 Now are you anything better H1111 than Balak H1121 the son H6834 of Zippor, H4428 king H4124 of Moab? H7378 Did he ever H7378 strive H3478 against Israel, H7378 or did he ever H3898 fight against them?

26 H3478 While Israel H3427 lived H2809 in Heshbon H1323 and its towns, H6177 and in Aroer H1323 and its towns, H5892 and in all the cities H3027 that are along by the side H769 of the Arnon, H7969 three H3967 hundred H8141 years; H5337 why didn't you recover H6256 them within that time?

27 H2398 I therefore have not sinned H6213 against you, but you do H7451 me wrong H3898 to war H3068 against me. Yahweh, H8199 the Judge, H8199 be judge H3117 this day H1121 between the children H3478 of Israel H1121 and the children H5983 of Ammon."

28 H4428 However the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H8085 didn't listen H1697 to the words H3316 of Jephthah H7971 which he sent him.

29 H7307 Then the Spirit H3068 of Yahweh H3316 came on Jephthah, H5674 and he passed over H1568 Gilead H4519 and Manasseh, H5674 and passed over H4708 Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead, H4708 and from Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead H5674 he passed over H1121 to the children H5983 of Ammon.

30 H3316 Jephthah H5087 vowed H5088 a vow H3068 to Yahweh, H559 and said, H5414 "If you will indeed H5414 deliver H1121 the children H5983 of Ammon H3027 into my hand,

31 H3318 then it shall be, that whatever H3318 comes forth H1817 from the doors H1004 of my house H7125 to meet H7725 me, when I return H7965 in peace H1121 from the children H5983 of Ammon, H3068 it shall be Yahweh's, H5927 and I will offer it up H5930 for a burnt offering."

32 H3316 So Jephthah H5674 passed over H1121 to the children H5983 of Ammon H3898 to fight H3068 against them; and Yahweh H5414 delivered H3027 them into his hand.

33 H5221 He struck H6177 them from Aroer H935 until you come H4511 to Minnith, H6242 even twenty H5892 cities, H58 and to H3754 Abelcheramim, H3966 with a very H1419 great H4347 slaughter. H1121 So the children H5983 of Ammon H3665 were subdued H6440 before H1121 the children H3478 of Israel.

18 H3212 Then they went H4057 along through the wilderness, H5437 and compassed H776 the land H123 of Edom, H776 and the land H4124 of Moab, H935 and came H4217 by the east H8121 H776 side of the land H4124 of Moab, H2583 and pitched H5676 on the other H5676 side H769 of Arnon, H935 but came H1366 not within the border H4124 of Moab: H769 for Arnon H1366 was the border H4124 of Moab.

19 H3478 And Israel H7971 sent H4397 messengers H5511 to Sihon H4428 king H567 of the Amorites, H4428 the king H2809 of Heshbon; H3478 and Israel H559 said H5674 to him, Let us pass, H4994 we pray H776 you, through your land H5704 into H4725 my place.

20 H5511 But Sihon H539 trusted H3478 not Israel H5674 to pass H1366 through his coast: H5511 but Sihon H622 gathered H3605 all H5971 his people H2583 together, and pitched H3096 in Jahaz, H3898 and fought H5973 against H3478 Israel.

21 H3068 And the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H5414 delivered H5511 Sihon H3605 and all H5971 his people H3027 into the hand H3478 of Israel, H5221 and they smote H3478 them: so Israel H3423 possessed H3605 all H776 the land H567 of the Amorites, H3427 the inhabitants H776 of that country.

22 H3423 And they possessed H3605 all H1366 the coasts H567 of the Amorites, H769 from Arnon H2999 even to Jabbok, H4057 and from the wilderness H3383 even to Jordan.

23 H6258 So now H3068 the LORD H430 God H3478 of Israel H3423 has dispossessed H567 the Amorites H6440 from before H5971 his people H3478 Israel, H3423 and should you possess it?

24 H3423 Will not you possess H834 that which H3645 Chemosh H430 your god H3423 gives you to possess? H3605 So whomsoever H834 H3068 the LORD H430 our God H3423 shall drive H6440 out from before H3423 us, them will we possess.

25 H6258 And now H2896 are you any thing better H1111 than Balak H1121 the son H6834 of Zippor, H4428 king H4124 of Moab? H7378 did he ever strive H5973 against H3478 Israel, H3898 or did he ever fight H5973 against them,

26 H3478 While Israel H3427 dwelled H2809 in Heshbon H1323 and her towns, H6177 and in Aroer H1323 and her towns, H3605 and in all H5892 the cities H3027 that be along by the coasts H769 of Arnon, H7969 three H3967 hundred H8141 years? H4069 why H5337 therefore did you not recover H6256 them within that time?

27 H2398 Why I have not sinned H6213 against you, but you do H7451 me wrong H3898 to war H3068 against me: the LORD H8199 the Judge H8199 be judge H3117 this day H996 between H1121 the children H3478 of Israel H1121 and the children H5983 of Ammon.

28 H4428 However, the king H1121 of the children H5983 of Ammon H8085 listened H1697 not to the words H3316 of Jephthah H834 which H7971 he sent him.

29 H7307 Then the Spirit H3068 of the LORD H1961 came H3316 on Jephthah, H5674 and he passed H5674 over H1568 Gilead, H4519 and Manasseh, H5674 and passed H5674 over H4708 Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead, H4708 and from Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead H5674 he passed H5674 over H1121 to the children H5983 of Ammon.

30 H3316 And Jephthah H5087 vowed H5088 a vow H3068 to the LORD, H559 and said, H518 If H5414 you shall without fail deliver H1121 the children H5983 of Ammon H3027 into my hands,

31 H834 Then it shall be, that whatever H3318 comes H3318 forth H1817 of the doors H1004 of my house H7125 to meet H7725 me, when I return H7965 in peace H1121 from the children H5983 of Ammon, H3068 shall surely be the LORD’s, H5927 and I will offer H5930 it up for a burnt offering.

32 H3316 So Jephthah H5674 passed H5674 over H1121 to the children H5983 of Ammon H3898 to fight H3068 against them; and the LORD H5414 delivered H3027 them into his hands.

33 H5221 And he smote H6177 them from Aroer, H5704 even till H935 you come H4511 to Minnith, H6242 even twenty H5892 cities, H58 and to the plain H3754 of the vineyards, H3966 with a very H1419 great H4347 slaughter. H1121 Thus the children H5983 of Ammon H3665 were subdued H6440 before H1121 the children H3478 of Israel.

KJ2000⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sent messengers unto the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What have you to do with me, that you are come against me to fight in my land? ¹³ And the king of the children of Ammon answered unto the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even unto Jabbok, and unto Jordan: now therefore restore those lands again peaceably. ¹⁴ And Jephthah sent messengers again unto the king of the children of Ammon: ¹⁵ And said unto him, Thus says Jephthah, Israel took not away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon: ¹⁶ But when Israel came up from Egypt, and walked through the wilderness unto the Red sea, and came to Kadesh; ¹⁷ Then Israel sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray you, pass through your land: but the king of Edom would not listen.

12 H3316 And Jephthah H7971 sent H4397 messengers H4428 unto the king H1121 of the sons H5983 of Ammon, H559 saying, H935 What have you to do with me, that you are come H3898 against me to fight H776 in my land?

13 H4428 And the king H1121 of the sons H5983 of Ammon H559 answered H4397 unto the messengers H3316 of Jephthah, H3478 Because Israel H3947 took away H776 my land, H5927 when they came up H4714 out of Egypt, H769 from Arnon H2999 even unto Jabbok, H3383 and unto Jordan: H7725 now therefore restore those lands again H7965 peaceably.

14 H3316 And Jephthah H7971 sent H4397 messengers H3254 again H4428 unto the king H1121 of the sons H5983 of Ammon:

15 H559 And said H559 unto him, Thus says H3316 Jephthah, H3478 Israel H3947 took not away H776 the land H4124 of Moab, H776 nor the land H1121 of the sons H5983 of Ammon:

16 H3478 But when Israel H5927 came up H4714 from Egypt, H3212 and walked H4057 through the wilderness H5488 unto the Red H3220 sea, H935 and came H6946 to Kadesh;

17 H3478 Then Israel H7971 sent H4397 messengers H4428 unto the king H123 of Edom, H559 saying, H5674 Let me, I pray you, pass through H776 your land: H4428 but the king H123 of Edom H8085 would not listen H7971 thereto. And in like manner they sent H4428 unto the king H4124 of Moab: H14 but he would H3478 not consent: and Israel H3427 lived H6946 in Kadesh.

18 H3212 Then they went along H4057 through the wilderness, H5437 and compassed H776 the land H123 of Edom, H776 and the land H4124 of Moab, H935 and came H4217 by the east side H776 of the land H4124 of Moab, H2583 and pitched H5676 on the other side H769 of Arnon, H935 but came H1366 not inside the border H4124 of Moab: H769 for Arnon H1366 was the border H4124 of Moab.

20 H5511 But Sihon H539 trusted H3478 not Israel H5674 to pass H1366 through his coast: H5511 but Sihon H622 gathered H5971 all his people H622 together, H2583 and pitched H3096 in Jahaz, H3898 and fought H3478 against Israel.

21 H3068 And the Lord H430 God H3478 of Israel H5414 delivered H5511 Sihon H5971 and all his people H3027 into the hand H3478 of Israel, H5221 and they struck H3478 them: so Israel H3423 possessed H776 all the land H567 of the Amorites, H3427 the inhabitants H776 of that country.

22 H3423 And they possessed H1366 all the coasts H567 of the Amorites, H769 from Arnon H2999 even unto Jabbok, H4057 and from the wilderness H3383 even unto Jordan.

23 H3068 So now the Lord H430 God H3478 of Israel H3423 has dispossessed H567 the Amorites H6440 from before H5971 his people H3478 Israel, H3423 and should you possess it?

24 H3423 Will not you possess H3645 that which Chemosh H430 your god H3423 gives you to possess? H3068 So whomever the Lord H430 our God H3423 shall drive out H6440 from before H3423 us, them will we possess.

25 H2896 And now are you any thing better H1111 than Balak H1121 the son H6834 of Zippor, H4428 king H4124 of Moab? H7378 did he ever H7378 argue H3478 against Israel, H3898 or did he ever H3898 fight against them,

26 H3478 While Israel H3427 lived H2809 in Heshbon H1323 and her towns, H6177 and in Aroer H1323 and her towns, H5892 and in all the cities H3027 that be along by the coasts H769 of Arnon, H7969 three H3967 hundred H8141 years? H5337 why therefore did you not recover H6256 them inside that time?

27 H2398 Why I have not sinned H6213 against you, but you do H7451 me wrong H3898 to war H3068 against me: the Lord H8199 the Judge H8199 be judge H3117 this day H1121 between the sons H3478 of Israel H1121 and the sons H5983 of Ammon.

28 H4428 But the king H1121 of the sons H5983 of Ammon H8085 listened H1697 not unto the words H3316 of Jephthah H7971 which he sent him.

29 H7307 Then the Spirit H3068 of the Lord H3316 came upon Jephthah, H5674 and he passed over H1568 Gilead, H4519 and Manasseh, H5674 and passed over H4708 Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead, H4708 and from Mizpeh H1568 of Gilead H5674 he passed over H1121 unto the sons H5983 of Ammon.

30 H3316 And Jephthah H5087 vowed H5088 a vow H3068 unto the Lord, H559 and said, H5414 If you shall outside fail H5414 deliver H1121 the sons H5983 of Ammon H3027 into my hands,

31 H3318 Then it shall be, that whatever H3318 comes forth H1817 of the doors H1004 of my house H7125 to meet H7725 me, when I return H7965 in peace H1121 from the sons H5983 of Ammon, H3068 shall surely be the Lord's, H5927 and I will offer it up H5930 for a burnt offering.

32 H3316 So Jephthah H5674 passed over H1121 unto the sons H5983 of Ammon H3898 to fight H3068 against them; and the Lord H5414 delivered H3027 them into his hands.

33 H5221 And he struck H6177 them from Aroer, H935 even until you come H4511 to Minnith, H6242 even twenty H5892 cities, H58 and unto the plain H3754 of the vineyards, H3966 with a very H1419 great H4347 slaughter. H1121 Thus the sons H5983 of Ammon H3665 were subdued H6440 before H1121 the sons H3478 of Israel.

EJ2000⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² ¶ And Jephthah sent ambassadors unto the king of the sons of Ammon, saying, What hast thou to do with me that thou art come against me to fight in my land? ¹³ And the king of the sons of Ammon replied unto the ambassadors of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even unto Jabbok and unto the Jordan; now, therefore, restore those lands again peaceably. ¹⁴ Then Jephthah sent ambassadors again unto the king of the sons of Ammon, ¹⁵ saying unto him, Thus hath Jephthah said, Israel did not take land from Moab, nor land from the sons of Ammon, ¹⁶ but Israel came up from Egypt and walked through the wilderness unto the Red sea and came to Kadesh. ¹⁷ Then Israel sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, pass through thy land. But the king of Edom would not hear them. And in like manner they sent unto the king of Moab, but he would not consent either; therefore Israel abode in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then they went along through the wilderness and went around the land of Edom and the land of Moab and came by the side of the rising of the sun to the land of Moab; they pitched their camp on the other side of Arnon and did not enter within the border of Moab, for Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon, king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said unto him, Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land into my place. ²⁰ But Sihon did not trust Israel to pass through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together and pitched camp in Jahaz and fought against Israel. ²¹ But the LORD God of Israel delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them; so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorite that inhabited that land. ²² And they possessed all the border of the Amorites from Arnon even unto Jabbok and from the wilderness even unto the Jordan. ²³ So now the LORD God of Israel has expelled the Amorites from before his people Israel and should thou possess it? ²⁴ If Chemosh thy god should expel anyone for you, would thou not possess it? So whoever the LORD our God shall drive out from before us, them will we possess. ²⁵ Art thou better now in any thing than Balak, the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Peradventure did he ever strive against Israel? Peradventure did he ever fight against them? ²⁶ Furthermore, Israel has dwelt in Heshbon and her towns and in Aroer and her towns and in all the cities that are along by the coasts of Arnon, for three hundred years. Why, therefore, did ye not recover them within that time? ²⁷ Therefore, I have not sinned against thee, but thou doest me wrong to war against me; let the LORD, who is the Judge, judge this day between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon. ²⁸ But the king of the sons of Ammon did not hear the reasons of Jephthah which he sent him. ²⁹ ¶ Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed through Gilead and Manasseh and passed through Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he went unto the sons of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the sons of Ammon into my hands, ³¹ whoever comes forth of the doors of my house to meet me when I return in peace from the sons of Ammon shall surely be the LORD’s, and I will offer them up for a burnt offering. ³² So Jephthah went over unto the sons of Ammon to fight against them, and the LORD delivered them into his hands. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer, even unto Minnith twenty cities, and unto the plain of the vineyards, with a very great slaughter. Thus the sons of Ammon were subdued before the sons of Israel.

CAB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What have I to do with you, that you have come against me to fight in my land? ¹³ And the king of the children of Ammon said to the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took my land when he went up out of Egypt, from Arnon to Jabbok, and to the Jordan: now then return them peaceably and I will depart. ¹⁴ And Jephthah again sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, ¹⁵ and said to him, Thus says Jephthah: Israel took not the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon; ¹⁶ for in their going up out of Egypt Israel went in the wilderness as far as the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh. ¹⁷ And Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, I will pass, if it please you, by your land; and the king of Edom would not consent. And Israel also sent to the king of Moab, and he did not consent; and Israel sojourned in Kadesh. ¹⁸ And they journeyed in the wilderness, and bypassed the land of Edom and the land of Moab. And they came by the east of the land of Moab, an encamped in the country beyond Arnon, and did not enter the borders of Moab, for Arnon is the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorite, king of Hesbron, and Israel said to him, Let us pass through your land to our place. ²⁰ And Sihon did not trust Israel to pass through his territory; and Sihon gathered all his people, and they encamped at Jahaz; and he set the battle in array against Israel. ²¹ And the Lord God of Israel delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they struck him; and Israel inherited all the land of the Amorite who dwelt in that land, ²² from Arnon and to Jabbok, and from the wilderness to the Jordan. ²³ And now the Lord God of Israel has removed the Amorite from before His people Israel, and shall you inherit his land? ²⁴ Will you not inherit those possessions which Chemosh your god shall cause you to inherit; and shall not we inherit the land of all those whom the Lord our God has removed from before you? ²⁵ And now are you any better than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he indeed fight with Israel, or indeed make war with him, ²⁶ when Israel dwelt in Hesbron and in its coasts, and in the land of Aroer and in its coasts, and in all the cities by the Jordan, three hundred years? And why did you not recover them in that time? ²⁷ And now I have not sinned against you, but you wronged me in preparing war against me: may the Lord, the Judge, render judgment this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ But the king of the children of Ammon did not heed the words of Jephthah, which he sent to him. ²⁹ And the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead, and Manasseh, and passed by the watchtower of Gilead to the other side of the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow to the Lord, and said, If You will indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then it shall come to pass that whosoever shall first come out of the door of my house to meet me when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, he shall be the Lord's: I will offer him up for a whole burnt offering. ³² And Jephthah advanced to meet the sons of Ammon to fight against them; and the Lord delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he smote them from Aroer till one comes to Arnon, twenty cities in number, and as far as Abel-Keramim, with a very great destruction. And the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.

LXX2012⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthae sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What have I to do with you, that you have come against me to fight in my land? ¹³ And the king of the children of Ammon said to the messengers of Jephthae, Because Israel took my land when he went up out of Egypt, from Arnon to Jaboc, and to Jordan: now then return them peaceably and I will depart. ¹⁴ And Jephthae again sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, ¹⁵ and said to him, Thus says Jephthae, Israel took not the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon; ¹⁶ for in their going up out of Egypt Israel went in the wilderness as far as the sea of Siph, and came to Cades. ¹⁷ And Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, I will pass, if it please you, by your land: and the king of Edom complied not: and [Israel] also sent to the king of Moab, and he did not consent; and Israel sojourned in Cades. ¹⁸ And [they] journeyed in the wilderness, and compassed the land of Edom and the land of Moab: and they came by the east of the land of Moab, an encamped in the country beyond Arnon, and came not within the borders of Moab, for Arnon [is] the border of Moab. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers to Seon king of the Amorite, king of Esbon, and Israel said to him, Let us pass, we pray you, by your land to our place. ²⁰ And Seon did not trust Israel to pass by his coast; and Seon gathered all his people, and they encamped at Jasa; and he set the battle in array against Israel. ²¹ And the Lord God of Israel delivered Seon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they struck him; and Israel inherited all the land of the Amorite who lived in that land, ²² from Arnon and to Jaboc, and from the wilderness to Jordan. ²³ And now the Lord God of Israel has removed the Amorite from before his people Israel, and shall you inherit his [land]? ²⁴ Will you not inherit those possessions which Chamos your god shall cause you to inherit; and shall not we inherit the [land of] all those whom the Lord our God has removed from before you? ²⁵ And now are you any better than Balac son of Sepphor, king of Moab? did he indeed fight with Israel, or indeed make war with him, ²⁶ when [Israel] lived in Esebon and in its coasts, and in the land of Aroer and in its coasts, and in all the cities by Jordan, three hundred years? and therefore did you not recover them in that time? ²⁷ And now I have not sinned against you, but you wrong me in preparing war against me: may the Lord the Judge judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. ²⁸ But the king of the children of Ammon listened not to the words of Jephthae, which he sent to him. ²⁹ And the spirit of the Lord came upon Jephthae, and he passed over Galaad, and Manasse, and passed by the watch-tower of Galaad to the other side of the children of Ammon. ³⁰ And Jephthae vowed a vow to the Lord, and said, If you will indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then it shall come to pass that whoever shall first come out of the door of my house to meet me when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, he shall be the Lord's: I will offer him up for a whole burnt offering. ³² And Jephthae advanced to meet the sons of Ammon to fight against them; and the Lord delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he struck them from Aroer till [one] comes to Arnon, in number twenty cities, and as far as Ebelcharmim, with a very great destruction: and the children of Ammon were straitened before the children of Israel.

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Jephthah sent messengers to the king of Ammon. He said: »What do you have against us that you want to fight us? Why have you invaded our country?« ¹³ The king of Ammon answered Jephthah’s messengers: »Because Israel took away our land when they came out of Egypt. They took land from the Arnon River to the Jabbok River and the Jordan River. Now you must give it back peacefully.« ¹⁴ Jephthah sent messengers back to the king of Ammon. ¹⁵ This was his answer: »It is not true that Israel took away the land of Moab or the land of Ammon. ¹⁶ »It happened this way: ‘when the Israelites left Egypt, they went through the desert to the Gulf of Aqaba and came to Kadesh. ¹⁷ »‘They sent messengers to the king of Edom to ask permission to go through his land. But the king of Edom would not let them. They also asked the king of Moab, but he would not let them go through his land. So the people of Israel stayed at Kadesh. ¹⁸ »‘Then they went through the desert around the land of Edom and the land of Moab until they came to the east side of Moab, on the other side of the Arnon River. They camped there, but they did not cross the Arnon because it was the boundary of Moab. ¹⁹ »‘The people of Israel sent messengers to Sihon, the Amorite king of Heshbon. They asked him for permission to go through his country to their own land. ²⁰ »‘But Sihon refused to let Israel do it. He brought his whole army together, camped at Jahaz, and attacked Israel. ²¹ »‘Jehovah, the God of Israel, gave the people of Israel victory over Sihon and his army. So the people of Israel took possession of all the territory of the Amorites who lived in that country. ²² »‘They occupied all the Amorite territory from the Arnon in the south to the Jabbok in the north and from the desert on the east to the Jordan on the west. ²³ »‘Jehovah, the God of Israel, drove out the Amorites for his people, the people of Israel. ²⁴ »‘Are you going to try to take it back? You can keep whatever your god Chemosh has given you. But we are going to keep everything Jehovah, our God, has taken for us. ²⁵ »‘Do you think you are better than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever challenge Israel or fight with them? ²⁶ »‘Israel has occupied Heshbon and Aroer for three hundred years, and the towns around them, and all the cities on the banks of the Arnon River. Why did you not retake them during that time? ²⁷ »‘I have not done you any wrong. You are doing wrong to me by making war on me. Jehovah is the judge. He will decide today between the Israelites and the Ammonites.’« ²⁸ The king of Ammon paid no attention to this message from Jephthah. ²⁹ The Spirit of Jehovah came upon Jephthah. He went through Gilead and Manasseh and returned to Mizpah in Gilead and went on to Ammon. ³⁰ Jephthah promised Jehovah: »If you give me victory over the Ammonites, ³¹ »I will sacrifice with a burnt offering the first person that comes out of my house to meet me, when I return from the victory. I will offer that person to you as a sacrifice.« (Jeremiah 19:5) ³² Jephthah crossed the river to fight the Ammonites, and Jehovah gave him victory. ³³ He struck at them from Aroer to the area around Minnith, twenty cities in all, and as far as Abel Keramim. It was a great slaughter. The Ammonites were defeated by Israel.

ISV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Jephthah’s Dialogue with the AmmonitesAfterwards, Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the Ammonites to ask him, “What’s your dispute between us that prompted you to come and attack my land?”
¹³ The king of the Ammonites answered the messengers of Jephthah, “We’re here because Israel took away my land from the Arnon River as far as the Jabbok River and as far as the Jordan River when they came up from Egypt! So restore it as a gesture of good will.”
¹⁴ But Jephthah sent additional messengers again to the king of the Ammonites ¹⁵ and they informed him, “This is Jephthah’s response: ‘Israel didn’t seize the land of Moab nor the land of the Ammonites. ¹⁶ Here’s what happened: When Israel came up from Egypt, passed through the desert to the Red Sea, and arrived at Kadesh, ¹⁷ Israel sent a delegation to the king of Edom and asked him, “Please let us pass through your territory.”‘But the king of Edom wouldn’t listen. So they also sent word to the king of Moab, but he wouldn’t consent, either. So Israel stayed at Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then they went through the desert, circumventing the territory belonging to Edom and Moab. They encamped on the other side of the Arnon River, but never entered the territory of Moab because the Arnon River is the border of Moab. ¹⁹ ‘Then Israel sent a delegation to Sihon, king of the Amorites and king of Heshbon. Israel requested of him, “Please let us pass through your territory to our place.” ²⁰ But Sihon didn’t trust Israel to pass through his territory, so he assembled his entire army, encamped in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. ²¹ The LORD God of Israel handed Sihon and his entire army into the control of Israel, and defeated them. As a result, Israel took control over the entire land of the Amorites, who were living in that country. ²² They took possession of the entire territory of the Amorites from the Arnon River as far as the Jabbok River and from the desert as far as the Jordan River. ²³ ‘Now then, since the LORD God of Israel expelled the Amorites right in front of his people Israel, are you going to control their territory? ²⁴ Don’t you control what your god Chemosh gives you? In the same way, we’ll take control of whomever the LORD our God has driven out in front of us. ²⁵ Also ask yourselves: do you have a better case than Zippor’s son Balak, king of Moab? Did he ever have a quarrel with Israel or ever win a fight against them? ²⁶ When Israel was living in Heshbon and its surrounding villages, in Aroer and its surrounding villages, and in all the cities that line the banks of the Arnon River these past three hundred years, why didn’t you retake them during that time? ²⁷ I haven’t sinned against you, but you are acting wrongly against me by declaring war on me. May the LORD, the Judge, sit in judgment today between the Israelis and the Ammonites.’”
²⁸ But the king of the Ammonites wouldn’t heed the message that Jephthah had sent to him.
²⁹ Jephthah’s VowThe Spirit of the LORD came on Jephthah, so he swept through Gilead and the territory of Manasseh, then swept through Mizpah in Gilead, and from Mizpah in Gilead he proceeded toward where the Ammonites were encamped. ³⁰ Jephthah made this solemn vow to the LORD: “If you truly give the Ammonites into my control, ³¹ then if I return from the Ammonites without incident, whatever comes out the doors of my house to meet me will become the LORD’s, and I will offer it up as a burnt offering.”
³² Then Jephthah crossed over to the Ammonites and attacked them. The LORD gave them into his control. ³³ He attacked them from Aroer to the entrance of Minnith—twenty cities in all—even as far as Abel-keramim. As a result, the Ammonites were subdued right in front of the Israelis.

LEB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the _⌊Ammonites_⌋,* saying, "What is between you and me that you have come to me to make war against my land?" ¹³ And the king of the _⌊Ammonites_⌋* said to Jephthah's messengers, "Because Israel took my land from the Arnon up to the Jabbok and the Jordan when they came up from Egypt; so then, restore it peacefully." ¹⁴ Once again Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the _⌊Ammonites_⌋,* ¹⁵ and he said to him, "Thus says Jephthah, 'Israel did not take the land of Moab or the land of the _⌊Ammonites_⌋,* ¹⁶ because when they came up from Egypt, Israel went through the wilderness to the _⌊Red Sea_⌋* and went to Kadesh. ¹⁷ Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, "Please let us cross through your land," but the king of Edom would not listen. And they also sent messengers to the king of Moab, but he was not willing. So Israel stayed in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then they traveled through the wilderness, went around the land of Edom and Moab, and came to _⌊the east_⌋* side of the land of Moab, and they* encamped beyond the Arnon; and they did not go into the territory of Moab because the Arnon was the border of Moab. ¹⁹ Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites,* king of Heshbon; and Israel said to him, 'Please let us cross through your land _⌊to our country_⌋.'* ²⁰ But Sihon did not trust Israel to cross through his territory, so Sihon gathered all his people and then encamped at Jahaz; and he made war with Israel. ²¹ And Yahweh, the God of Israel, gave Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they defeated them; and Israel occupied all the land of the Amorites* inhabiting that land. ²² They occupied all the territory of the Amorites* from the Arnon up to the Jabbok, and from the wilderness up to the Jordan. ²³ So then Yahweh, the God of Israel, has driven out the Amorites* from before his people Israel, and you want to possess it? ²⁴ Do you not possess what Chemosh your god gave you to possess? Whoever Yahweh our God has driven out before us, we will possess it. ²⁵ So then, are you any better than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever quarrel with Israel, or did he ever make war against them? ²⁶ When Israel lived in Heshbon and its villages, and in Aroer and its villages, and in all the towns that are _⌊along the Arnon_⌋,* for three hundred years,* why did you not recover them at that time? ²⁷ I have not sinned against you; but you are the one who is doing wrong by making war against me. _⌊Let Yahweh judge_⌋* today between the _⌊Israelites_⌋* and the _⌊Ammonites_⌋."* ²⁸ But the king of the _⌊Ammonites_⌋* did not listen to the message that Jephthah sent to him. ²⁹ And the Spirit of Yahweh came upon Jephthah, and he passed through Gilead and Manasseh. He passed through Mizpah of Gilead, and from Mizpah of Gilead he passed through to the _⌊Ammonites_⌋.* ³⁰ And Jephthah made a vow to Yahweh, and he said, "If indeed you will give the _⌊Ammonites_⌋* into my hand, ³¹ whatever* comes out from the doors of my house to meet me when I return safely from the _⌊Ammonites_⌋* will be Yahweh's, and I will offer it as a burnt offering." ³² And Jephthah crossed over to the _⌊Ammonites_⌋* to make war against them; and Yahweh gave them into his hand. ³³ And he defeated them with a very great blow, from Aroer as far as Minnith, twenty towns,* up to Abel Keramim. And the _⌊Ammonites_⌋* were subdued before the _⌊Israelites_⌋.*

BSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Then Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the Ammonites, saying, “What do you have against me that you have come to fight against my land?” ¹³ The king of the Ammonites answered Jephthah’s messengers, “When Israel came up out of Egypt, they seized my land, from the Arnon to the Jabbok and all the way to the Jordan. Now, therefore, restore it peaceably.” ¹⁴ Jephthah again sent messengers to the king of the Ammonites ¹⁵ to tell him, “This is what Jephthah says: Israel did not take away the land of Moab or of the Ammonites. ¹⁶ But when Israel came up out of Egypt, they traveled through the wilderness to the Red Sea and came to Kadesh. ¹⁷ Then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, ‘Please let us pass through your land,’ but the king of Edom would not listen. They also sent messengers to the king of Moab, but he would not consent. So Israel stayed in Kadesh. ¹⁸ Then Israel traveled through the wilderness and bypassed the lands of Edom and Moab. They came to the east side of the land of Moab and camped on the other side of the Arnon. But they did not enter the territory of Moab, since the Arnon was its border. ¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon, and said to him, ‘Please let us pass through your land into our own place.’ ²⁰ But Sihon would not trust Israel to pass through his territory. So he gathered all his people, encamped in Jahaz, and fought with Israel. ²¹ Then the LORD, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, who defeated them. So Israel took possession of all the land of the Amorites who inhabited that country, ²² seizing all the land from the Arnon to the Jabbok and from the wilderness to the Jordan. ²³ Now since the LORD, the God of Israel, has driven out the Amorites from before His people Israel, should you now possess it? ²⁴ Do you not possess whatever your god Chemosh grants you? So also, we possess whatever the LORD our God has granted us. ²⁵ Are you now so much better than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever contend with Israel or fight against them? ²⁶ For three hundred years Israel has lived in Heshbon, Aroer, and their villages, as well as all the cities along the banks of the Arnon. Why did you not take them back during that time? ²⁷ I have not sinned against you, but you have done me wrong by waging war against me. May the LORD, the Judge, decide today between the Israelites and the Ammonites.” ²⁸ But the king of the Ammonites paid no heed to the message Jephthah sent him. ²⁹ Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed through Gilead and Manasseh, then through Mizpah of Gilead. And from there he advanced against the Ammonites. ³⁰ Jephthah made this vow to the LORD: “If indeed You will deliver the Ammonites into my hand, ³¹ then whatever comes out the door of my house to greet me on my triumphant return from the Ammonites will belong to the LORD, and I will offer it up as a burnt offering.” ³² So Jephthah crossed over to the Ammonites to fight against them, and the LORD delivered them into his hand. ³³ With a great blow he devastated twenty cities from Aroer to the vicinity of Minnith, as far as Abel-keramim. So the Ammonites were subdued before the Israelites.

MSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Then Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the Ammonites, saying, “What do you have against me that you have come to fight against my land?” ¹³ The king of the Ammonites answered Jephthah’s messengers, “When Israel came up out of Egypt, they seized my land, from the Arnon to the Jabbok and all the way to the Jordan.

So the Ammonites were subdued before the Israelites.

MLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² And Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the sons of Ammon, saying, What have you to do with me, that you have come to me to fight against my land? ¹³ And the king of the sons of Ammon answered to the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land when he came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok and to the Jordan. Now therefore restore those lands again peaceably.
¹⁴ And Jephthah sent messengers again to the king of the sons of Ammon. ¹⁵ And he said to him, Thus says Jephthah: Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the sons of Ammon, ¹⁶ but when they came up from Egypt and Israel went through the wilderness to the Red Sea and came to Kadesh, ¹⁷ then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, I beseech you, let me pass through your land, but the king of Edom did not listen. And in like manner he sent to the king of Moab, but he would not. And Israel abode in Kadesh.
¹⁸ Then they went through the wilderness and went around the land of Edom and the land of Moab and came by the east side of the land of Moab. And they encamped on the other side of the Arnon, but they did not come within the border of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab.
¹⁹ And Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon. And Israel said to him, Please let us pass, through your land to my place. ²⁰ But Sihon did not trust Israel to pass through his border, but Sihon gathered all his people together and encamped in Jahaz and fought against Israel.
²¹ And Jehovah, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel and they killed* them. So Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. ²² And they possessed all the border of the Amorites, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok and from the wilderness even to the Jordan.
²³ So now Jehovah, the God of Israel, has dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel and should you possess them? ²⁴ Will you not possess what Chemosh your god gives you to possess? So whomever Jehovah our God has dispossessed from before us, them will we possess.
²⁵ And now are you anything better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever contend against Israel, or did he ever fight against them? ²⁶ While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and its towns and in Aroer and its towns and in all the cities that are along by the side of the Arnon, three hundred years, why did you* not recover them within that time?
²⁷ I therefore have not sinned against you, but you do me wrong to war against me. Jehovah, the Judge, be judge this day between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon. ²⁸ However the king of the sons of Ammon did not listen to the words of Jephthah which he sent him.
²⁹ Then the Spirit of Jehovah came upon Jephthah and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over to the sons of Ammon.
³⁰ And Jephthah vowed a vow to Jehovah and said, If you will indeed deliver the sons of Ammon into my hand, ³¹ then it will be, that whatever comes forth from the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the sons of Ammon, it will be Jehovah's and I will offer it up for a burnt offering.
³² So Jephthah passed over to the sons of Ammon to fight against them and Jehovah delivered them into his hand. ³³ And he killed* them from Aroer until you come to Minnith, even twenty cities and to Abel-keramim, with a very great slaughter. So the sons of Ammon were subdued before the sons of Israel.

Aber der Edomiter H4428 König H8085 erhörete sie H4428 nicht. Auch sandten sie zum Könige H4124 der Moabiter H14 , der wollte H3427 auch nicht. Also blieb H3478 Israel H5674 in H6946 Kades

18 H4057 und wandelte in der Wüste H5437 ; und umzogen H776 das H776 Land H123 der Edomiter H4124 und Moabiter H935 und kamen H4124 von der Sonnen Aufgang an der Moabiter H776 Land H3212 und lagerten sich H5676 jenseit H769 des Arnon H935 ; und kamen H1366 nicht in die Grenze H4124 der Moabiter H769 , denn Arnon H4124 ist der Moabiter H1366 Grenze .

19 H4428 Und H3478 Israel H4397 sandte Boten H5511 zu Sihon H567 , der Amoriter H4428 König H2809 zu Hesbon H7971 , und ließ H3478 ihm H559 sagen H5674 : Laß uns durch H776 dein Land H5704 ziehen bis H4725 an meinen Ort .

20 H5511 Aber Sihon H3478 vertrauete Israel H5674 nicht, durch H1366 seine Grenze H622 zu ziehen, sondern versammelte H539 all sein H5971 Volk H622 und lagerte sich H3096 zu Jahza H3898 und stritt H3478 mit Israel .

21 H3068 Der HErr H430 aber, der GOtt H3478 Israels H5414 , gab H5511 den Sihon H5971 mit all seinem Volk H3027 in die Hände H3478 Israels H3427 , daß sie H5221 sie schlugen H3423 . Also nahm H3478 Israel H776 ein alles Land H567 der Amoriter H776 , die in demselben Lande wohneten,

22 H3423 und nahmen H1366 alle Grenze H567 der Amoriter H769 ein von Arnon H2999 an bis an Jabbok H4057 und von der Wüste H3383 an bis an den Jordan .

23 H3068 So hat nun der HErr H430 , der GOtt H3478 Israels H567 die Amoriter H3423 vertrieben H6440 vor H5971 seinem Volk H3478 Israel H3423 ; und du willst sie einnehmen ?

24 H3423 Du solltest die einnehmen H430 , die dein GOtt H3645 Kamos H3423 vertriebe H3423 , und uns lassen einnehmen H3068 alle, die der HErr H430 , unser GOtt H6440 , vor H3423 uns vertrieben hat.

25 H2896 Meinest du, daß du besser H1111 Recht habest denn Balak H1121 , der Sohn H4124 Zipors, der Moabiter H4428 König H7378 ? Hat H7378 derselbe auch je H3898 gerechtet oder gestritten H3898 wider H3478 Israel,

26 H3478 obwohl Israel H7969 nun dreihundert H8141 Jahre H2809 gewohnet hat in Hesbon H3967 und H1323 ihren Töchtern H6177 , in Aroer H1323 und ihren Töchtern H5892 und allen Städten H3027 , die H3427 am Arnon liegen? Warum errettetet ihr‘s H5337 nicht H6256 zu derselben Zeit ?

27 H2398 Ich habe H853 nichts an dir gesündiget; und H6213 du tust H8199 so H7451 übel H3898 an mir, daß du wider mich streitest H3068 . Der HErr H3117 fälle heute H3478 ein Urteil zwischen Israel H1121 und H1121 den Kindern H5983 Ammon .

28 H4428 Aber der König H1121 der Kinder H5983 Ammon H1697 erhörete die Rede H3316 Jephthahs nicht, die er H8085 zu H7971 ihm sandte .

29 H7307 Da kam der Geist H3068 des HErrn H3316 auf Jephthah H5674 ; und zog H1568 durch Gilead H4519 und Manasse H4708 und durch Mizpe H5674 , das in H1568 Gilead H4708 liegt, und von Mizpe H5674 , das in H1568 Gilead H1121 liegt, auf die Kinder Ammon.

30 H5414 Und H3316 Jephthah H5087 gelobte H3068 dem HErrn H5088 ein Gelübde H5414 und H559 sprach H1121 : Gibst du die Kinder H3027 Ammon in meine Hand,

31 H1817 was zu meiner Haustür H3318 heraus H7965 mir entgegengehet, wenn ich mit Frieden H3318 wiederkomme von H1121 den Kindern H5983 Ammon H3068 , das soll des HErrn H1004 sein, und H7725 will‘s H5930 zum Brandopfer H5927 opfern .

32 H5674 Also zog H3316 Jephthah H1121 auf die Kinder H3898 Ammon, wider sie zu streiten H3068 . Und der HErr H5414 gab H3027 sie in seine Hände .

33 H5221 Und er schlug H3665 sie H6177 von Aroer H935 an, bis man kommt H6242 gen Minnit, zwanzig H5892 Städte H58 , und bis an den Plan der Weinberge H3966 , eine sehr H1419 große H4347 Schlacht H1121 . Und wurden also die Kinder H5983 Ammon H6440 gedemütiget vor H1121 den Kindern H3478 Israel .

Luther1912⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Da sandte Jephthah Botschaft zum König der Kinder Ammon und ließ ihm sagen: Was hast du mit mir zu schaffen, daß du kommst zu mir, wider mein Land zu streiten? ¹³ Der König der Kinder Ammon antwortete den Boten Jephthahs: Darum daß Israel mein Land genommen hat, da sie aus Ägypten zogen, vom Arnon an bis an den Jabbok und wieder bis zum Jordan; so gib mir's nun wieder mit Frieden. ¹⁴ Jephthah aber sandte noch mehr Boten zum König der Kinder Ammon, ¹⁵ die sprachen zu ihm: So spricht Jephthah: Israel hat kein Land genommen, weder den Moabitern noch den Kindern Ammon. ¹⁶ Denn da sie aus Ägypten zogen, wandelte Israel durch die Wüste bis ans Schilfmeer und kam gen Kades ¹⁷ und sandte Boten zum König der Edomiter und sprach: Laß mich durch dein Land ziehen. Aber der Edomiter König erhörte sie nicht. Auch sandten sie zum König der Moabiter; der wollte auch nicht. Also blieb Israel in Kades ¹⁸ und wandelte in der Wüste. Und sie umzogen das Land der Edomiter und Moabiter und kamen von der Sonne Aufgang an der Moabiter Land und lagerten sich jenseit des Arnon und kamen nicht in die Grenze der Moabiter; denn der Arnon ist der Moabiter Grenze. ¹⁹ Und Israel sandte Boten zu Sihon, dem König der Amoriter zu Hesbon, und ließ ihm sagen: Laß uns durch dein Land ziehen bis an meinen Ort. ²⁰ Aber Sihon vertraute Israel nicht, durch sein Gebiet zu ziehen, sondern versammelte all sein Volk und lagerte sich zu Jahza und stritt mit Israel. ²¹ Der HERR aber, der Gott Israels, gab den Sihon mit all seinem Volk in die Hände Israels, daß sie sie schlugen. Also nahm Israel ein alles Land der Amoriter, die in demselben Lande wohnten. ²² Und sie nahmen alles Gebiet der Amoriter ein vom Arnon an bis an den Jabbok und von der Wüste an bis an den Jordan. ²³ So hat nun der HERR, der Gott Israels, die Amoriter vertrieben vor seinem Volk Israel; und du willst ihr Land einnehmen? ²⁴ Du solltest deren Land einnehmen, die dein Gott Kamos vertriebe, und uns lassen einnehmen das Land aller, die der HERR, unser Gott, vor uns vertrieben hat. ²⁵ Meinst du, daß du besser recht habest denn Balak, der Sohn Zippors, der Moabiter König? Hat derselbe auch je gerechtet oder gestritten wider Israel? ²⁶ Dieweil nun Israel dreihundert Jahre gewohnt hat in Hesbon und in Aroer und ihren Ortschaften und allen Städten, die am Arnon liegen, warum errettetet ihr's nicht in dieser Zeit? ²⁷ Ich habe nichts an dir gesündigt, und du tust so übel an mir, daß du wider mich streitest. Der HERR, der da Richter ist, richte heute zwischen Israel und den Kindern Ammon. ²⁸ Aber der König der Kinder Ammon erhörte die Rede Jephthahs nicht, die er zu ihm sandte. ²⁹ Da kam der Geist des HERRN auf Jephthah, und er zog durch Gilead und Manasse und durch Mizpe, das in Gilead liegt, auf die Kinder Ammon. ³⁰ Und Jephthah gelobte dem HERRN ein Gelübde und sprach: Gibst du die Kinder Ammon in meine Hand: ³¹ was zu meiner Haustür heraus mir entgegengeht, wenn ich mit Frieden wiederkomme von den Kindern Ammon, das soll des HERRN sein, und ich will's zum Brandopfer opfern. ³² Also zog Jephthah auf die Kinder Ammon, wider sie zu streiten. Und der HERR gab sie in seine Hände. ³³ Und er schlug sie von Aroer an, bis wo man kommt gen Minnith, zwanzig Städte, und bis an den Plan der Weinberge, eine sehr große Schlacht. Und wurden also die Kinder Ammon gedemütigt vor den Kindern Israel.

12 H7971 Da sandte H3316 Jephthah H4397 Botschaft H4428 zum König H1121 der Kinder H5983 Ammon H559 und ließ ihm sagen H935 : Was hast du mit mir zu schaffen, daß du kommst H776 zu mir, wider mein Land H3898 zu streiten ?

13 H4428 Der König H1121 der Kinder H5983 Ammon H559 antwortete H4397 den Boten H3316 Jephthahs H3478 : Darum daß Israel H776 mein Land H3947 genommen H4714 hat, da sie aus Ägypten H5927 zogen H769 , vom Arnon H2999 an bis an den Jabbok H3383 und bis an den Jordan H7725 ; so gib H7725 mir’s nun wieder H7965 mit Frieden .

14 H3316 Jephthah H7971 aber sandte H3254 noch mehr H4397 Boten H4428 zum König H1121 der Kinder H5983 Ammon,

15 H559 die sprachen H559 zu ihm: So spricht H3316 Jephthah H3478 : Israel H776 hat kein Land H3947 genommen H4124 , weder den Moabitern H1121 noch den Kindern H5983 Ammon .

16 H4714 Denn da sie aus Ägypten H5927 zogen H3212 , wandelte H3478 Israel H4057 durch die Wüste H5488 H3220 bis ans Schilfmeer H935 und kam H6946 gen Kades

17 H3478 und H7971 sandte H4397 Boten H4428 zum König H123 der Edomiter H559 und sprach H776 : Laß mich durch dein Land H5674 ziehen H123 . Aber der Edomiter H4428 König H8085 erhörte H7971 sie nicht. Auch sandten H4428 sie zum König H4124 der Moabiter H14 ; der wollte H3427 auch nicht. Also blieb H3478 Israel H6946 in Kades

18 H3212 und wandelte H4057 in der Wüste H5437 . Und sie umzogen H776 das Land H123 der Edomiter H4124 und Moabiter H935 und kamen H8121 von der Sonne H4217 Aufgang H4124 an der Moabiter H776 Land H2583 und lagerten H5676 sich jenseit H769 des Arnon H935 und kamen H1366 nicht in die Grenze H4124 der Moabiter H769 ; denn der Arnon H4124 ist der Moabiter H1366 Grenze .

19 H3478 Und Israel H7971 sandte H4397 Boten H5511 zu Sihon H4428 , dem König H567 der Amoriter H2809 zu Hesbon H559 , und ließ ihm sagen H776 : Laß uns durch dein Land H5674 ziehen H5704 bis an H4725 meinen Ort .

20 H5511 Aber Sihon H539 vertraute H3478 Israel H1366 nicht, durch sein Gebiet H5674 zu ziehen H622 , sondern versammelte H5971 all sein Volk H2583 und lagerte H3096 sich zu Jahza H3898 und stritt H3478 mit Israel .

21 H3068 Der HERR H430 aber, der Gott H3478 Israels H5414 , gab H5511 den Sihon H5971 mit allem seinem Volk H3027 in die Hände H3478 Israels H5221 , daß sie sie schlugen H3423 . Also nahm H3478 Israel H3423 ein H776 alles Land H567 der Amoriter H776 , die in demselben Lande H3427 wohnten .

22 H3423 Und sie nahmen H1366 alles Gebiet H567 der Amoriter H3423 ein H769 vom Arnon H2999 an bis an den Jabbok H4057 und von der Wüste H3383 an bis an den Jordan .

23 H3068 So hat nun der HERR H430 , der Gott H3478 Israels H567 , die Amoriter H3423 vertrieben H6440 vor H5971 seinem Volk H3478 Israel H3423 ; und du willst ihr Land einnehmen ?

24 H3423 Du sollst deren Land einnehmen H430 , die dein Gott H3645 Kamos H3423 vertriebe H3423 , und uns lassen einnehmen H3068 das Land aller, die der HERR H430 , unser Gott H6440 , vor H3423 uns vertrieben hat.

25 H2896 Meinst du, daß du besser H1111 recht habest denn Balak H1121 , der Sohn H6834 Zippors H4124 , der Moabiter H4428 König H7378 ? Hat derselbe auch je H7378 gerechtet H3898 oder gestritten H3478 wider Israel ?

26 H3478 H7969 H3967 Dieweil nun Israel H8141 Jahre H3427 gewohnt H2809 hat in Hesbon H6177 und in Aroer H1323 und ihren Ortschaften H5892 und allen Städten H3027 , die am H769 Arnon H5337 liegen, warum errettetet H6256 ihr’s nicht in dieser Zeit ?

27 H2398 Ich habe nichts an dir gesündigt H6213 , und du tust H853 so H7451 übel H3898 an mir, daß du wider mich streitest H3068 . Der HERR H8199 , der da Richter H8199 ist, richte H3117 heute H3478 zwischen Israel H1121 und den Kindern H5983 Ammon .

28 H4428 Aber der König H1121 der Kinder H5983 Ammon H8085 erhörte H1697 die Rede H3316 Jephthahs H7971 nicht, die er zu ihm sandte .

29 H7307 Da kam der Geist H3068 des HERRN H3316 auf Jephthah H5674 , und er zog H1568 durch Gilead H4519 und Manasse H5674 und durch H4708 Mizpe H1568 , das in Gilead H4708 liegt, und von Mizpe H1568 , das in Gilead H5674 liegt auf H1121 die Kinder H5983 Ammon .

30 H3316 Und Jephthah H5087 gelobte H3068 dem HERRN H5088 ein Gelübde H559 und sprach H5414 : Gibst H1121 du die Kinder H5983 Ammon H3027 in meine Hand :

31 H3318 was H1004 H1817 zu meiner Haustür H3318 heraus H7125 mir entgegengeht H7965 , wenn ich mit Frieden H7725 wiederkomme H1121 von den Kindern H5983 Ammon H3068 , das soll des HERRN H5930 sein, und ich will’s zum Brandopfer H5927 opfern .

32 H5674 Also zog H3316 Jephthah H1121 auf die Kinder H5983 Ammon H3898 , wider sie zu streiten H3068 . Und der HERR H5414 gab H3027 sie in seine Hände .

33 H5221 Und er schlug H6177 sie von Aroer H935 an, bis wo man kommt H4511 gen Minnith H6242 , H5892 Städte H58 , und bis an den Plan H64 H3754 der Weinberge H3966 , eine sehr H1419 große H4347 Schlacht H1121 . Und wurden also die Kinder H5983 Ammon H3665 gedemütigt H6440 vor H1121 den Kindern H3478 Israel .

ELB1871⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Und Jephtha sandte Boten an den König der Kinder Ammon und ließ ihm sagen: Was haben wir miteinander zu schaffen, daß du gegen mich gekommen bist, mein Land zu bekriegen? ¹³ Und der König der Kinder Ammon sprach zu den Boten Jephthas: Weil Israel mein Land genommen hat, als es aus Ägypten heraufzog, vom Arnon bis an den Jabbok und bis an den Jordan; und nun gib die Länder in Frieden zurück. ¹⁴ Da sandte Jephtha abermals Boten an den König der Kinder Ammon ¹⁵ und ließ ihm sagen: So spricht Jephta: Israel hat nicht das Land Moabs und das Land der Kinder Ammon genommen; ¹⁶ sondern als sie aus Ägypten heraufzogen, da wanderte Israel durch die Wüste bis zum Schilfmeere, und es kam nach Kades; ¹⁷ und Israel sandte Boten an den König von Edom und ließ ihm sagen: Laß mich doch durch dein Land ziehen! Aber der König von Edom gab kein Gehör. Und auch an den König von Moab sandte es; aber er wollte nicht. So blieb Israel in Kades. ¹⁸ Und es wanderte durch die Wüste und umging das Land Edom und das Land Moab und kam von Sonnenaufgang her zum Lande Moab; und sie lagerten sich jenseit des Arnon und kamen nicht in das Gebiet Moabs, denn der Arnon ist die Grenze Moabs. ¹⁹ Und Israel sandte Boten an Sihon, den König der Amoriter, den König von Hesbon, und Israel ließ ihm sagen: Laß uns doch durch dein Land ziehen bis an meinen Ort! ²⁰ Aber Sihon traute Israel nicht, es durch sein Gebiet ziehen zu lassen; und Sihon versammelte all sein Volk, und sie lagerten sich zu Jahza; und er stritt wider Israel. ²¹ Und Jehova, der Gott Israels, gab Sihon und all sein Volk in die Hand Israels, und sie schlugen sie. So nahm Israel das ganze Land der Amoriter, die jenes Land bewohnten, in Besitz: ²² sie nahmen das ganze Gebiet der Amoriter in Besitz, vom Arnon bis an den Jabbok, und von der Wüste bis an den Jordan. ²³ Und so hat nun Jehova, der Gott Israels, die Amoriter vor seinem Volke Israel ausgetrieben, und du willst uns austreiben? ²⁴ Nimmst du nicht das in Besitz, was Kamos, dein Gott, dir zum Besitz gibt? So auch alles, was Jehova, unser Gott, vor uns ausgetrieben hat, das wollen wir besitzen. ²⁵ Und nun, bist du etwa besser als Balak, der Sohn Zippors, der König von Moab? Hat er je mit Israel gerechtet, oder je wider sie gestritten? ²⁶ Während Israel in Hesbon wohnte und in seinen Tochterstädten, und in Aroer und in seinen Tochterstädten, und in all den Städten, die längs des Arnon liegen, dreihundert Jahre lang: warum habt ihr sie denn nicht in jener Zeit entrissen? ²⁷ Und nicht ich habe gegen dich gesündigt, sondern du tust übel an mir, wider mich zu streiten. Jehova, der Richter, richte heute zwischen den Kindern Israel und den Kindern Ammon! ²⁸ Aber der König der Kinder Ammon hörte nicht auf die Worte Jephthas, die er ihm entboten hatte. ²⁹ Da kam der Geist Jehovas über Jephtha; und er zog durch Gilead und Manasse, und zog nach Mizpe in Gilead, und von Mizpe in Gilead zog er gegen die Kinder Ammon. ³⁰ Und Jephtha gelobte Jehova ein Gelübde und sprach: Wenn du die Kinder Ammon wirklich in meine Hand gibst, ³¹ so soll das, was zur Tür meines Hauses herausgeht, mir entgegen, wenn ich in Frieden von den Kindern Ammon zurückkehre, es soll Jehova gehören, und ich werde es als Brandopfer opfern! ³² Und so zog Jephtha gegen die Kinder Ammon, um wider sie zu streiten; und Jehova gab sie in seine Hand. ³³ Und er schlug sie von Aroer an, bis man nach Minnith kommt, zwanzig Städte, und bis nach Abel-Keramim, und er richtete eine sehr große Niederlage unter ihnen an; und die Kinder Ammon wurden gebeugt vor den Kindern Israel.

ELB1905⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Und Jephtha sandte Boten an den König der Kinder Ammon und ließ ihm sagen: Was haben wir miteinander zu schaffen, daß du gegen mich gekommen bist, mein Land zu bekriegen? ¹³ Und der König der Kinder Ammon sprach zu den Boten Jephthas: Weil Israel mein Land genommen hat, als es aus Ägypten heraufzog, vom Arnon bis an den Jabbok und bis an den Jordan; und nun gib die Länder W. sie in Frieden zurück. ¹⁴ Da sandte Jephtha abermals Boten an den König der Kinder Ammon ¹⁵ und ließ ihm sagen: So spricht Jephta: Israel hat nicht das Land Moabs und das Land der Kinder Ammon genommen; ¹⁶ sondern als sie aus Ägypten heraufzogen, da wanderte Israel durch die Wüste bis zum Schilfmeere, und es kam nach Kades; ¹⁷ und Israel sandte Boten an den König von Edom und ließ ihm sagen: Laß mich doch durch dein Land ziehen!

16 H935 sondern als sie H4714 aus Ägypten H5927 heraufzogen, da H3478 wanderte Israel H4057 durch die Wüste H3212 bis zum Schilfmeere, und es kam H6946 nach Kades;

22 H3423 Sie nahmen H1366 das ganze Gebiet H567 der Amoriter H769 in Besitz, vom Arnon H2999 bis an den Jabbok H4057 , und von der Wüste H3383 bis an den Jordan .

26 H3478 Während Israel H2809 in Hesbon H3427 wohnte H6177 und in seinen Tochterstädten, und in Aroer H5892 und in seinen Tochterstädten, und in all den Städten H769 , die längs des Arnon H7969 -H3967 liegen, dreihundert H8141 Jahre H3027 lang: warum habt ihr sie denn nicht H6256 in jener Zeit entrissen?

27 H853 Und H6213 nicht ich habe H2398 gegen dich gesündigt H7451 , sondern du tust übel H3898 an mir, wider mich zu streiten H3068 . Jehova H8199 , der Richter H8199 , richte H3117 heute H1121 zwischen den Kindern H3478 Israel H1121 und den Kindern H5983 Ammon!

28 H4428 Aber der König H1121 der Kinder H5983 Ammon H8085 hörte H1697 nicht auf die Worte Jephthas, die er ihm entboten hatte.

29 H7307 Da kam der Geist H3068 Jehovas H5674 über H1568 Jephtha; und er zog durch Gilead H4519 und Manasse H4708 , und zog nach Mizpe H5674 in H1568 Gilead H4708 , und von Mizpe H5674 in H1568 Gilead H1121 zog er gegen die Kinder H5983 Ammon .

30 H5087 Und Jephtha gelobte H3068 Jehova H5088 ein Gelübde H559 und sprach H5414 : Wenn du H1121 die Kinder H5983 Ammon H3027 wirklich in meine Hand H5414 gibst,

31 H1817 so soll das, was zur Tür H1004 meines Hauses H7725 herausgeht, mir H7125 entgegen H7965 , wenn ich in Frieden H3318 von H1121 den Kindern H5983 Ammon H3068 zurückkehre, es soll Jehova H3318 gehören, und H5930 ich werde es als Brandopfer H5927 opfern!

32 H1121 Und so zog Jephtha gegen die Kinder H5983 Ammon H3898 , um wider sie zu streiten H3068 ; und Jehova H5414 gab H5674 sie in H3027 seine Hand .

33 H935 Und er H5221 schlug H3665 sie H6440 von H6177 Aroer H4511 an, bis man nach Minnith H6242 kommt, zwanzig H5892 Städte H3966 , und bis nach Abel-Keramim, und er richtete eine sehr H1419 große H1121 Niederlage unter ihnen an; und die Kinder H5983 Ammon H1121 wurden gebeugt vor den Kindern H3478 Israel .

DSV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Voorts zond Jeftha boden tot den koning der kinderen Ammons, zeggende: Wat hebben ik en gij met elkander te doen, dat gij tot mij gekomen zijt, om tegen mijn land te krijgen? ¹³ En de koning der kinderen Ammons zeide tot de boden van Jeftha: Omdat Israël, als hij uit Egypte optoog, mijn land genomen heeft, van de Arnon af tot aan de Jabbok, en tot aan de Jordaan; zo geef mij dat nu weder met vrede. ¹⁴ Maar Jeftha voer wijders voort, en zond boden tot den koning der kinderen Ammons. ¹⁵ En hij zeide tot hem: Zo zegt Jeftha: Israël heeft het land der Moabieten, en het land der kinderen Ammons niet genomen; ¹⁶ Want als zij uit Egypte optogen, zo wandelde Israël door de woestijn tot aan de Schelfzee, en kwam te Kades. ¹⁷ En Israël zond boden tot den koning der Edomieten, zeggende: Laat mij toch door uw land doortrekken; maar de koning der Edomieten gaf geen gehoor. En hij zond ook tot den koning der Moabieten, die ook niet wilde. Alzo bleef Israël in Kades. ¹⁸ Daarna wandelde hij in de woestijn, en toog om het land der Edomieten en het land der Moabieten, en kwam van den opgang der zon aan het land der Moabieten, en zij legerden zich op gene zijde van de Arnon; maar zij kwamen niet binnen de landpale der Moabieten; want de Arnon is de landpale der Moabieten. ¹⁹ Maar Israël zond boden tot Sihon, den koning der Amorieten, koning van Hesbon, en Israël zeide tot hem: Laat ons toch door uw land doortrekken tot aan mijn plaats. ²⁰ Doch Sihon betrouwde Israël niet door zijn landpale door te trekken; maar Sihon verzamelde al zijn volk, en zij legerden zich te Jaza; en hij streed tegen Israël. ²¹ En de HEERE, de God Israëls, gaf Sihon met al zijn volk in de hand van Israël, dat zij hen sloegen; alzo nam Israël erfelijk in het ganse land der Amorieten, die in datzelve land woonden. ²² En zij namen erfelijk in de ganse landpale der Amorieten, van de Arnon af tot aan de Jabbok, en van de woestijn tot aan de Jordaan. ²³ Zo heeft nu de HEERE, de God Israëls, de Amorieten voor het aangezicht van Zijn volk Israël uit de bezitting verdreven; en zoudt gij hunlieder erfgenaam zijn? ²⁴ Zoudt gij niet dengene erven, dien uw god Kamos voor u uit de bezitting verdreef? Alzo zullen wij al dengene erven, dien de HEERE, onze God, voor ons aangezicht uit de bezitting verdrijft. ²⁵ Nu voorts, zijt gij veel beter dan Balak, de zoon van Zippor, de koning der Moabieten? heeft hij ooit met Israël getwist? heeft hij ook ooit tegen hem gekrijgd? ²⁶ Terwijl Israël driehonderd jaren gewoond heeft in Hesbon, en in haar stedekens, en in Aroer en in de stedekens, en in al de steden, die aan de zijde van de Arnon zijn; waarom hebt gij het dan in dien tijd niet gered? ²⁷ Ook heb ik tegen u niet gezondigd, maar gij doet kwalijk bij mij, dat gij tegen mij krijgt; de HEERE, Die Rechter is, richte heden tussen de kinderen Israëls en tussen de kinderen Ammons! ²⁸ Maar de koning der kinderen Ammons hoorde niet naar de woorden van Jeftha, die hij tot hem gezonden had. ²⁹ Toen kwam de Geest des HEEREN op Jeftha, dat hij Gilead en Manasse doortrok; want hij trok door tot Mizpa in Gilead, en van Mizpa in Gilead trok hij door tot de kinderen Ammons. ³⁰ En Jeftha beloofde den HEERE een gelofte, en zeide: Indien Gij de kinderen Ammons ganselijk in mijn hand zult geven; ³¹ Zo zal het uitgaande, dat uit de deur van mijn huis mij tegemoet zal uitgaan, als ik met vrede van de kinderen Ammons wederkom, dat zal des HEEREN zijn, en ik zal het offeren ten brandoffer. ³² Alzo trok Jeftha door naar de kinderen Ammons, om tegen hen te strijden; en de HEERE gaf hen in zijn hand. ³³ En hij sloeg hen van Aroer af tot daar gij komt te Minnith, twintig steden, en tot aan Abel-keramim, met een zeer groten slag. Alzo werden de kinderen Ammons te ondergebracht voor het aangezicht der kinderen Israëls.

12 H7971 H8799 Voorts zond H3316 Jeftha H4397 boden H413 tot H4428 den koning H1121 der kinderen H5983 Ammons H559 H8800 , zeggende H4100 : Wat H3588 hebben ik en gij met elkander te doen, dat H413 gij tot H935 H8804 mij gekomen zijt H776 , om tegen mijn land H3898 H8736 te krijgen?

13 H4428 En de koning H1121 der kinderen H5983 Ammons H559 H8799 zeide H413 tot H4397 de boden H3316 van Jeftha H3588 : omdat H3478 Israel H4480 , als hij uit H4714 Egypte H5927 H8800 optoog H776 , mijn land H3947 H8804 genomen heeft H769 , van de Arnon H5704 af tot aan H2999 de Jabbok H5704 , en tot aan H3383 de Jordaan H7725 H0 ; zo geef H853 mij dat H6258 nu H7725 H8685 weder H7965 met vrede.

14 H3316 Maar Jeftha H3254 H0 voer H5750 wijders H3254 H8686 voort H7971 H8799 , en zond H4397 boden H413 tot H4428 den koning H1121 der kinderen H5983 Ammons.

15 H559 H8799 En hij zeide tot H3541 hem: Zo H559 H8804 zegt H3316 Jeftha H3478 : Israel H776 heeft het land H4124 der Moabieten H776 , en het land H1121 der kinderen H5983 Ammons H3808 niet H3947 H8804 genomen;

16 H3588 want H4480 als zij uit H4714 Egypte H5927 H8800 optogen H3212 H8799 , zo wandelde H3478 Israel H4057 door de woestijn H5704 tot aan H5488 H3220 de Schelfzee H935 H8799 , en kwam H6946 te Kades.

17 H3478 En Israel H7971 H8799 zond H4397 boden H413 tot H4428 den koning H123 der Edomieten H559 H8800 , zeggende H4994 : Laat mij toch H776 door uw land H5674 H8799 doortrekken H4428 ; maar de koning H123 der Edomieten H8085 H0 gaf H3808 geen H8085 H8804 gehoor H7971 H8804 . En hij zond H1571 ook H413 tot H4428 den koning H4124 der Moabieten H3808 , die ook niet H14 H8804 wilde H3427 H8799 . Alzo bleef H3478 Israel H6946 in Kades.

18 H3212 H8799 Daarna wandelde hij H4057 in de woestijn H5437 H8799 , en toog om H776 het land H123 der Edomieten H776 en het land H4124 der Moabieten H935 H8799 , en kwam H4480 van H4217 den opgang H8121 der zon H776 aan het land H4124 der Moabieten H2583 H8799 , en zij legerden zich H5676 op gene zijde H769 van de Arnon H935 H8804 ; maar zij kwamen H3808 niet H1366 binnen de landpale H4124 der Moabieten H3588 ; want H769 de Arnon H1366 is de landpale H4124 der Moabieten.

19 H3478 Maar Israel H7971 H8799 zond H4397 boden H413 tot H5511 Sihon H4428 , den koning H567 der Amorieten H4428 , koning H2809 van Hesbon H3478 , en Israel H559 H8799 zeide H4994 tot hem: Laat ons toch H776 door uw land H5674 H8799 doortrekken H5704 tot aan H4725 mijn plaats.

20 H5511 Doch Sihon H539 H8689 betrouwde H3478 Israel H3808 niet H1366 door zijn landpale H5674 H8800 door te trekken H5511 ; maar Sihon H5971 verzamelde H3605 al H622 H8799 zijn volk H2583 H8799 , en zij legerden zich H3096 te Jaza H3898 H8735 ; en hij streed H5973 tegen H3478 Israel.

21 H3068 En de HEERE H430 , de God H3478 Israels H5414 H8799 , gaf H5511 Sihon H3605 met al H5971 zijn volk H3027 in de hand H3478 van Israel H5221 H8686 , dat zij hen sloegen H3423 H0 ; alzo nam H3478 Israel H3423 H8799 erfelijk in H3605 het ganse H776 land H567 der Amorieten H1931 , die in datzelve H776 land H3427 H8802 woonden.

22 H3423 H8799 En zij namen erfelijk in H3605 de ganse H1366 landpale H567 der Amorieten H4480 , van H769 de Arnon H5704 af tot aan H2999 de Jabbok H4408 , en van H4057 de woestijn H5704 tot aan H3383 de Jordaan.

23 H6258 Zo heeft nu H3068 de HEERE H430 , de God H3478 Israels H567 , de Amorieten H4480 voor H6440 het aangezicht H5971 van Zijn volk H3478 Israel H3423 H8689 uit de bezitting verdreven H859 ; en zoudt gij H3423 H8799 hunlieder erfgenaam zijn?

24 H3808 Zoudt gij niet H3423 H8799 dengene erven H834 , dien H430 uw god H3645 Kamos H3423 H8686 voor u uit de bezitting verdreef H3605 ? Alzo zullen wij al H834 dengene H3423 H8799 erven H853 , dien H3068 de HEERE H430 , onze God H4480 , voor H6440 ons aangezicht H3423 H8689 uit de bezitting verdrijft.

25 H6258 Nu H859 voorts, zijt gij H2896 veel H2896 beter H4480 dan H1111 Balak H1121 , de zoon H6834 van Zippor H4428 , de koning H4124 der Moabieten H7378 H8800 ? heeft hij ooit H5973 met H3478 Israel H7378 H8804 getwist H3898 H8736 ? heeft hij ook ooit H3898 H8738 tegen hem gekrijgd?

26 H3478 Terwijl Israel H7969 H3967 driehonderd H8141 jaren H3427 H8800 gewoond heeft H2809 in Hesbon H1323 , en in haar stedekens H6177 , en in Aroer H1323 en in de stedekens H3605 , en in al H5892 de steden H834 , die H5921 aan H3027 de zijde H769 van de Arnon H4069 zijn; waarom H1931 hebt gij het dan in dien H6256 tijd H3808 niet H5337 H8689 gered?

27 H595 Ook heb ik H3808 tegen u niet H2398 H8804 gezondigd H859 , maar gij H6213 H8802 doet H7451 kwalijk H853 bij H3898 H8736 mij, dat gij tegen mij krijgt H3068 ; de HEERE H8199 H8802 , Die Rechter H8199 H8799 is, richte H3117 heden H996 tussen H1121 de kinderen H3478 Israels H996 en tussen H1121 de kinderen H5983 Ammons!

28 H4428 Maar de koning H1121 der kinderen H5983 Ammons H8085 H8804 hoorde H3808 niet H413 naar H1697 de woorden H3316 van Jeftha H834 , die H413 hij tot H7971 H8804 hem gezonden had.

29 H1961 H8799 Toen kwam H7307 de Geest H3068 des HEEREN H5921 op H3316 Jeftha H1568 , dat hij Gilead H4519 en Manasse H5674 H8799 doortrok H3588 ; want H5674 H8799 hij trok door H4708 tot Mizpa H1568 in Gilead H4480 , en van H4708 Mizpa H1568 in Gilead H5674 H8804 trok hij door H1121 tot de kinderen H5983 Ammons.

30 H3316 En Jeftha H5087 H8799 beloofde H3068 den HEERE H5088 een gelofte H559 H8799 , en zeide H518 : Indien H1121 Gij de kinderen H5983 Ammons H5414 H8800 ganselijk H3027 in mijn hand H5414 H8799 zult geven;

31 H1961 H8804 Zo zal H3318 H8802 het uitgaande H834 , dat H4480 uit H1817 de deur H1004 van mijn huis H7125 H8800 mij tegemoet H3318 H8799 zal uitgaan H7965 , als ik met vrede H4480 van H1121 de kinderen H5983 Ammons H7725 H8800 wederkom H3068 , dat zal des HEEREN H1961 H8804 zijn H5927 H8689 , en ik zal het offeren H5930 ten brandoffer.

32 H5674 H0 Alzo trok H3316 Jeftha H5674 H8799 door H413 naar H1121 de kinderen H5983 Ammons H3898 H8736 , om tegen hen te strijden H3068 ; en de HEERE H5414 H8799 gaf H3027 hen in zijn hand.

33 H5221 H8686 En hij sloeg H4480 hen van H6177 Aroer H5704 af tot H935 H8800 daar gij komt H4511 te Minnith H6242 , twintig H5892 steden H5704 , en tot H58 H3754 H8677 H64 aan Abel-keramim H3966 , met een zeer H1419 groten H4347 slag H1121 . Alzo werden de kinderen H5983 Ammons H3665 H8735 te ondergebracht H4480 voor H6440 het aangezicht H1121 der kinderen H3478 Israels.

Giguet⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² ¶ Et Jephté dépêcha des envoyés au roi des fils d’Ammon, disant: Qu’y a-t-il entre moi et toi, pour que tu viennes ici apporter la guerre en ma contrée? ¹³ Le roi des fils d’Ammon dit aux envoyés de Jephté: Parce qu’Israël, en venant d’Egypte, s’est emparé de mon territoire depuis l’Arnon jusqu’au Jaboc, et jusqu’au Jourdain; maintenant rends-nous-le pacifiquement, et je me retirerai. ¹⁴ Jephté insista, et il dépêcha au roi des fils d’Ammon des envoyés, ¹⁵ Qui lui dirent: Voici ce que dit Jephté: Israël n’a point pris la terre de Moab, ni la terre des fils d’Ammon. ¹⁶ En venant de l’Egypte, Israël a traversé le désert jusqu’à la mer de Siph, et est arrivé à Cadès. ¹⁷ De là, Israël a envoyé des messagers au roi d’Edom, disant: Je passerai par ta terre, et le roi d’Edom ne les a pas écoutés; et Israël a envoyé au roi de Moab, qui n’a pas voulu acquiescer à leur demande. Et Israël a campé en Cadès; ¹⁸ Puis, il s’est avancé par le désert; il a tourné autour de la terre d’Edom et de la terre de Moab; il a passé à l’orient de la terre de Moab, il a dressé ses tentes au delà du torrent d’Arnon; mais il n’est point entré en Moab, puisque l’Arnon est hors des limites de Moab. ¹⁹ Après cela, Israël a envoyé des messagers à Sehon, roi des Amorrhéens, roi d’Esebon, et Israël lui a dit: Permets que nous traversions ta terre jusqu’au pays qui nous appartient. ²⁰ Séhon ne s’est pas fié à Israël pour le laisser traverser son territoire, et Séhon a rassemblé tout son peuple, et il a campé en Jasa, et il a combattu Israël. ²¹ Le Seigneur Dieu d’Israël a livré Séhon et tout son peuple aux mains d’Israël, qui l’a accablé; et Israël a pris possession de tout le territoire de l’Amorrhéen qui habitait cette terre, ²² Depuis l’Arnon jusqu’au Jaboc, et du désert au Jourdain. ²³ Et maintenant que le Seigneur Dieu d’Israël a fait disparaître l’Amorrhéen de devant la face de son peuple Israël, ce serait toi qui prendrais son héritage? ²⁴ N’est-ce point toi qui hérites de ceux dont Chamos, ton dieu, te livre l’héritage? Hériterons-nous de tous ceux que le Seigneur notre Dieu a fait disparaître de devant vous? ²⁵ D’ailleurs, l’emportes-tu en vaillance sur Balac, fils de Sephor, roi de Moab? Est-ce qu’il a combattu et combattu Israël? est-ce qu’il a lui fait guerre sur guerre, ²⁶ Lorsque Israël eut habité trois cents ans Esebon et son territoire, Aroer et son territoire, et toutes les villes auprès du Jourdain? Et pourquoi donc pendant tout ce temps ne les as-tu pas réclamées? ²⁷ Ce n’est donc point moi aujourd’hui qui ai failli envers toi; tu agis mal à mon égard, en apportant la guerre en ma contrée; que le Seigneur juge entre les fils d’Israël et les fils d’Ammon. ²⁸ Or, le roi des fils d’Ammon ne fit point attention aux paroles que Jephté lui avait fait dire. ²⁹ ¶ Et l’Esprit du Seigneur vint sur Jephté, qui traversa Galaad, Manassé, et passa au delà des hauteurs de Galaad, de l’autre côté des fils d’Ammon. ³⁰ Et Jephté fit un voeu au Seigneur; il dit: Si vous livrez à ma main les fils d’Ammon, ³¹ Le premier qui, venant à ma rencontre, franchira les portes de ma maison, lorsque j’y retournerai après la paix, celui-là sera au Seigneur; je le lui offrirai en holocauste. ³² Jephté s’approcha donc des fils d’Ammon pour les combattre, et le Seigneur les livra à ses mains; ³³ Il les écrasa dans vingt villes, depuis Aroer jusqu’à l’Arnon, et jusqu’à Ebel-Charmin; il les frappa d’une très-grande plaie, et les fils d’Ammon furent humbles devant la face des fils d’Israël.

DarbyFR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹²
Et Jephthé envoya des messagers au roi des fils d'Ammon, disant: Qu'y a-t-il entre moi et toi, que tu viennes contre moi pour faire la guerre à mon pays? ¹³ Et le roi des fils d'Ammon dit aux messagers de Jephthé: C'est parce qu'Israël a pris mon pays, quand il monta d'Égypte, depuis l'Arnon jusqu'au Jabbok et jusqu'au Jourdain; et maintenant, rends-moi ces contrées en paix. ¹⁴ Et Jephthé envoya de nouveau des messagers au roi des fils d'Ammon, ¹⁵ et lui dit: Ainsi dit Jephthé: Israël n'a point pris le pays de Moab ni le pays des fils d'Ammon; ¹⁶ car, quand ils montèrent d'Égypte, Israël marcha par le désert jusqu'à la mer Rouge, et il vint à Kadès; ¹⁷ et Israël envoya des messagers au roi d'Édom, disant: Laisse-moi passer par ton pays; mais le roi d'Édom n'écouta pas. Et il envoya aussi au roi de Moab; mais il ne voulut pas. Et Israël demeura à Kadès. ¹⁸ Et il marcha par le désert, et tourna le pays d'Édom et le pays de Moab, et vint du côté du soleil levant au pays de Moab, et ils campèrent au delà de l'Arnon, mais n'entrèrent pas dans les limites de Moab, car l'Arnon était la limite de Moab. ¹⁹ Et Israël envoya des messagers à Sihon, roi des Amoréens, roi de Hesbon, et Israël lui dit: Laisse-nous passer par ton pays, jusqu'en notre lieu. ²⁰ Mais Sihon ne se fia pas à Israël pour le laisser passer par ses limites; et Sihon rassembla tout son peuple, et ils campèrent à Jahtsa, et combattirent contre Israël. ²¹ Et l'Éternel, le Dieu d'Israël, livra Sihon et tout son peuple en la main d'Israël, et Israël les frappa; et Israël prit possession de tout le pays des Amoréens qui habitaient dans ce pays-là: ²² et ils eurent la possession de tout le territoire des Amoréens, depuis l'Arnon jusqu'au Jabbok, et depuis le désert jusqu'au Jourdain. ²³ Et maintenant l'Éternel, le Dieu d'Israël, a dépossédé les Amoréens devant son peuple Israël, et toi, tu nous en dépossèderais? ²⁴ Ne possèdes-tu pas ce que ton dieu Kemosh t'a fait posséder? Et nous aurons la possession de tous ceux que l'Éternel, notre Dieu, aura dépossédés devant nous. ²⁵ Et maintenant, vaux-tu donc mieux que Balak, fils de Tsippor, roi de Moab? A-t-il jamais contesté contre Israël? a-t-il jamais combattu contre eux? ²⁶ Pendant qu'Israël a habité Hesbon et les villages de son ressort, et Aroër et les villages de son ressort, et toutes les villes qui sont le long de l'Arnon, pendant trois cents ans, pourquoi ne les avez-vous pas délivrées en ce temps-là? ²⁷ Et ce n'est pas moi qui ai péché contre toi; mais c'est toi qui me fais tort, en m'attaquant. L'Éternel, le juge, jugera aujourd'hui entre les fils d'Israël et les fils d'Ammon. ²⁸ Et le roi des fils d'Ammon n'écouta pas les paroles que Jephthé lui avait envoyées. ²⁹
Et l'Esprit de l'Éternel fut sur Jephthé; et il passa à travers Galaad et Manassé, et il passa par Mitspé de Galaad, et de Mitspé de Galaad il passa vers les fils d'Ammon. ³⁰ Et Jephthé voua un voeu à l'Éternel, et dit: Si tu livres en ma main les fils d'Ammon, ³¹ il arrivera que ce qui sortira des portes de ma maison à ma rencontre, lorsque je reviendrai en paix des fils d'Ammon, sera à l'Éternel, et je l'offrirai en holocauste. ³² Et Jephthé passa vers les fils d'Ammon pour combattre contre eux; et l'Éternel les livra en sa main; ³³ et il leur infligea une très-grande défaite, depuis Aroër jusqu'à ce que tu viennes à Minnith, leur prenant vingt villes, et jusqu'à Abel-Keramim; et les fils d'Ammon furent humiliés devant les fils d'Israël.

Martin⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Puis Jephthé envoya des messagers au Roi des enfants de Hammon pour lui dire : Qu'y a-t-il entre toi et moi, que tu sois venu contre moi pour faire la guerre en mon pays ? ¹³ Et le Roi des enfants de Hammon répondit aux messagers de Jephthé : C'est parce qu'Israël a pris mon pays quand il montait d'Egypte, depuis Arnon jusqu'à Jabbok, même jusqu'au Jourdain; maintenant donc rends-moi ces contrées-là à l'amiable. ¹⁴ Mais Jephthé envoya encore des messagers au Roi des enfants de Hammon; ¹⁵ Qui lui dirent : Ainsi a dit Jephthé : Israël n'a rien pris du pays de Moab, ni du pays des enfants de Hammon. ¹⁶ Mais après qu'Israël, étant monté d'Egypte, fut venu par le désert jusqu'à la mer Rouge et fut parvenu à Kadès; ¹⁷ Et qu'il eut envoyé des messagers au Roi d'Edom, pour lui dire : Que je passe, je te prie, par ton pays; à quoi le Roi d'Edom ne voulut point entendre; et qu'il eut aussi envoyé au Roi de Moab, qui ne le voulut point non plus entendre; et après qu'Israël ayant demeuré à Kadès, ¹⁸ Et ayant marché par le désert, eut fait le tour du pays d'Edom, et du pays de Moab, et fut arrivé au pays de Moab du côté d'Orient, il se campa au delà d'Arnon, et n'entra point dans les frontières de Moab; parce qu'Arnon était la frontière de Moab. ¹⁹ Mais Israël envoya des messagers à Sihon, Roi des Amorrhéens, qui était Roi de Hesbon, auquel Israël fit dire : Nous te prions, que nous passions par ton pays, jusqu'à notre lieu. ²⁰ Mais Sihon ne se fiant point à Israël pour le laisser passer par son pays, assembla tout son peuple, et ils campèrent vers Jahats, et combattirent contre Israël. ²¹ Et l'Eternel le Dieu d'Israël livra Sihon et tout son peuple entre les mains d'Israël, et Israël les défit, et conquit tout le pays des Amorrhéens qui habitaient en ce pays-là. ²² Ils conquirent donc tout le pays des Amorrhéens depuis Arnon jusqu'à Jabbok, et depuis le désert jusqu'au Jourdain. ²³ Or maintenant que l'Eternel le Dieu d'Israël a dépossédé les Amorrhéens de devant son peuple d'Israël, en aurais-tu la possession ? ²⁴ N'aurais-tu pas la possession de ce que Kémos ton dieu t'aurait donné à posséder ? Ainsi nous posséderons le pays de tous ceux que l'Eternel notre Dieu aura chassés de devant nous. ²⁵ Or maintenant vaux-tu mieux en quelque sorte que ce soit que Balac, fils de Tsippor, Roi de Moab ? Et lui n'a-t-il pas contesté et combattu autant qu'il a pu contre Israël ? ²⁶ Pendant qu'Israël a demeuré à Hesbon, et dans les villes de son ressort, et à Haroher, et dans les villes de son ressort, et dans toutes les villes qui sont le long d'Arnon, l'espace de trois cents ans, pourquoi ne les avez-vous pas recouvrées pendant ce temps-là ? ²⁷ Je ne t'ai donc point offensé, mais tu fais une méchante action de me faire la guerre. Que l'Eternel, qui est le Juge, juge aujourd'hui entre les enfants d'Israël et les enfants de Hammon. ²⁸ Mais le Roi des enfants de Hammon ne voulut point écouter les paroles que Jephthé lui avait fait dire. ²⁹ L'Esprit de l'Eternel fut donc sur Jephthé, qui passa au travers de Galaad et de Manassé; et il passa jusqu'à Mitspé de Galaad, et de Mitspé de Galaad il passa jusqu'aux enfants de Hammon. ³⁰ Et Jephthé voua un voeu à l'Eternel, et dit : Si tu livres les enfants de Hammon en ma main; ³¹ Alors tout ce qui sortira des portes de ma maison au devant de moi, quand je retournerai en paix du pays des enfants de Hammon, sera à l'Eternel, et je l'offrirai en holocauste. ³² Jephthé donc passa jusques où étaient les enfants de Hammon pour combattre contr'eux; et l'Eternel les livra en sa main. ³³ Et il en fit un très-grand carnage, depuis Haroher jusqu'à Minnith, en vingt villes, et jusqu'à la plaine des vignes; et les enfants de Hammon furent humiliés devant les enfants d'Israël.

Segond⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Jephthé envoya des messagers au roi des fils d'Ammon, pour lui dire: Qu'y a-t-il entre moi et toi, que tu viennes contre moi pour faire la guerre à mon pays? ¹³ Le roi des fils d'Ammon répondit aux messagers de Jephthé: C'est qu'Israël, quand il est monté d'Egypte, s'est emparé de mon pays, depuis l'Arnon jusqu'au Jabbok et au Jourdain. Rends-le maintenant de bon gré. ¹⁴ Jephthé envoya de nouveau des messagers au roi des fils d'Ammon, ¹⁵ pour lui dire: Ainsi parle Jephthé: Israël ne s'est point emparé du pays de Moab, ni du pays des fils d'Ammon. ¹⁶ Car lorsque Israël est monté d'Egypte, il a marché dans le désert jusqu'à la mer Rouge, et il est arrivé à Kadès. ¹⁷ Alors Israël envoya des messagers au roi d'Edom, pour lui dire: Laisse-moi passer par ton pays. Mais le roi d'Edom n'y consentit pas. Il en envoya aussi au roi de Moab, qui refusa. Et Israël resta à Kadès. ¹⁸ Puis il marcha par le désert, tourna le pays d'Edom et le pays de Moab, et vint à l'orient du pays de Moab; ils campèrent au delà de l'Arnon, sans entrer sur le territoire de Moab, car l'Arnon est la frontière de Moab. ¹⁹ Israël envoya des messagers à Sihon, roi des Amoréens, roi de Hesbon, et Israël lui dit: Laisse-nous passer par ton pays jusqu'au lieu où nous allons. ²⁰ Mais Sihon n'eut pas assez confiance en Israël pour le laisser passer sur son territoire; il rassembla tout son peuple, campa à Jahats, et combattit Israël. ²¹ L'Eternel, le Dieu d'Israël, livra Sihon et tout son peuple entre les mains d'Israël, qui les battit. Israël s'empara de tout le pays des Amoréens établis dans cette contrée. ²² Ils s'emparèrent de tout le territoire des Amoréens, depuis l'Arnon jusqu'au Jabbok, et depuis le désert jusqu'au Jourdain. ²³ Et maintenant que l'Eternel, le Dieu d'Israël, a chassé les Amoréens devant son peuple d'Israël, est-ce toi qui aurais la possession de leur pays? ²⁴ Ce que ton dieu Kemosch te donne à posséder, ne le posséderais-tu pas? Et tout ce que l'Eternel, notre Dieu, a mis en notre possession devant nous, nous ne le posséderions pas! ²⁵ Vaux-tu donc mieux que Balak, fils de Tsippor, roi de Moab? A-t-il contesté avec Israël, ou lui a-t-il fait la guerre? ²⁶ Voilà trois cents ans qu'Israël habite à Hesbon et dans les villes de son ressort, à Aroër et dans les villes de son ressort, et dans toutes les villes qui sont sur les bords de l'Arnon: pourquoi ne les lui avez-vous pas enlevées pendant ce temps-là? ²⁷ Je ne t'ai point offensé, et tu agis mal avec moi en me faisant la guerre. Que l'Eternel, le juge, soit aujourd'hui juge entre les enfants d'Israël et les fils d'Ammon! ²⁸ Le roi des fils d'Ammon n'écouta point les paroles que Jephthé lui fit dire. ²⁹ L'esprit de l'Eternel fut sur Jephthé. Il traversa Galaad et Manassé; il passa à Mitspé de Galaad; et de Mitspé de Galaad, il marcha contre les fils d'Ammon. ³⁰ Jephthé fit un voeu à l'Eternel, et dit: Si tu livres entre mes mains les fils d'Ammon, ³¹ quiconque sortira des portes de ma maison au-devant de moi, à mon heureux retour de chez les fils d'Ammon, sera consacré à l'Eternel, et je l'offrirai en holocauste. ³² Jephthé marcha contre les fils d'Ammon, et l'Eternel les livra entre ses mains. ³³ Il leur fit éprouver une très grande défaite, depuis Aroër jusque vers Minnith, espace qui renfermait vingt villes, et jusqu'à Abel-Keramim. Et les fils d'Ammon furent humiliés devant les enfants d'Israël.

12 H3316 ¶ Jephthé H7971 envoya H8799 H4397 des messagers H4428 au roi H1121 des fils H5983 d’Ammon H559 , pour lui dire H8800 H935 : Qu’y a-t-il entre moi et toi, que tu viennes H8804 H3898 contre moi pour faire la guerre H8736 H776 à mon pays ?

13 H4428 Le roi H1121 des fils H5983 d’Ammon H559 répondit H8799 H4397 aux messagers H3316 de Jephthé H3478 : C’est qu’Israël H5927 , quand il est monté H8800 H4714 d’Egypte H3947 , s’est emparé H8804 H776 de mon pays H769 , depuis l’Arnon H2999 jusqu’au Jabbok H3383 et au Jourdain H7725 . Rends H8685 H7965 -le maintenant de bon gré.

14 H3316 Jephthé H7971 envoya H8799 H3254 de nouveau H8686 H4397 des messagers H4428 au roi H1121 des fils H5983 d’Ammon,

15 H559 pour lui dire H8799 H559 : Ainsi parle H8804 H3316 Jephthé H3478 : Israël H3947 ne s’est point emparé H8804 H776 du pays H4124 de Moab H776 , ni du pays H1121 des fils H5983 d’Ammon.

16 H3478 Car lorsque Israël H5927 est monté H8800 H4714 d’Egypte H3212 , il a marché H8799 H4057 dans le désert H3220 jusqu’à la mer H5488 Rouge H935 , et il est arrivé H8799 H6946 à Kadès.

17 H3478 Alors Israël H7971 envoya H8799 H4397 des messagers H4428 au roi H123 d’Edom H559 , pour lui dire H8800 H5674 : Laisse-moi passer H8799 H776 par ton pays H4428 . Mais le roi H123 d’Edom H8085 n’y consentit H8804 H7971 pas. Il en envoya H8804 H4428 aussi au roi H4124 de Moab H14 , qui refusa H8804 H3478 . Et Israël H3427 resta H8799 H6946 à Kadès.

18 H3212 Puis il marcha H8799 H4057 par le désert H5437 , tourna H8799 H776 le pays H123 d’Edom H776 et le pays H4124 de Moab H935 , et vint H8799 H4217 à l’orient H8121 H776 du pays H4124 de Moab H2583 ; ils campèrent H8799 H5676 au delà H769 de l’Arnon H935 , sans entrer H8804 H1366 sur le territoire H4124 de Moab H769 , car l’Arnon H1366 est la frontière H4124 de Moab.

19 H3478 Israël H7971 envoya H8799 H4397 des messagers H5511 à Sihon H4428 , roi H567 des Amoréens H4428 , roi H2809 de Hesbon H3478 , et Israël H559 lui dit H8799 H5674 : Laisse-nous passer H8799 H776 par ton pays H5704 jusqu’au H4725 lieu où nous allons.

20 H5511 Mais Sihon H539 n’eut pas assez confiance H8689 H3478 en Israël H5674 pour le laisser passer H8800 H1366 sur son territoire H5511 ; il H622 rassembla H8799 H5971 tout son peuple H2583 , campa H8799 H3096 à Jahats H3898 , et combattit H8735 H3478 Israël.

21 H3068 L’Eternel H430 , le Dieu H3478 d’Israël H5414 , livra H8799 H5511 Sihon H5971 et tout son peuple H3027 entre les mains H3478 d’Israël H5221 , qui les battit H8686 H3478 . Israël H3423 s’empara H8799 H776 de tout le pays H567 des Amoréens H3427 établis H8802 H776 dans cette contrée.

22 H3423 Ils s’emparèrent H8799 H1366 de tout le territoire H567 des Amoréens H769 , depuis l’Arnon H2999 jusqu’au Jabbok H4057 , et depuis le désert H3383 jusqu’au Jourdain.

23 H3068 Et maintenant que l’Eternel H430 , le Dieu H3478 d’Israël H3423 , a chassé H8689 H567 les Amoréens H6440 devant H5971 son peuple H3478 d’Israël H3423 , est-ce toi qui aurais la possession H8799 de leur pays ?

24 H430 Ce que ton dieu H3645 Kemosch H3423 te donne à posséder H8686 H3423 , ne le posséderais H8799 H3068 -tu pas ? Et tout ce que l’Eternel H430 , notre Dieu H3423 , a mis en notre possession H8689 H6440 devant H3423 nous, nous ne le posséderions H8799 pas !

25 H2896 Vaux-tu donc mieux H1111 que Balak H1121 , fils H6834 de Tsippor H4428 , roi H4124 de Moab H7378 ? A-t-il contesté H8800 H7378 H8804 H3478 avec Israël H3898 , ou lui a-t-il fait la guerre H8736 H3898 H8738 ?

26 H7969 Voilà trois H3967 cents H8141 ans H3478 qu’Israël H3427 habite H8800 H2809 à Hesbon H1323 et dans les villes H6177 de son ressort, à Aroër H1323 et dans les villes H5892 de son ressort, et dans toutes les villes H3027 qui sont sur les bords H769 de l’Arnon H5337 : pourquoi ne les lui avez-vous pas enlevées H8689 H6256 pendant ce temps-là ?

27 H2398 Je ne t’ai point offensé H8804 H6213 , et tu agis H8802 H7451 mal H853 avec moi H3898 en me faisant la guerre H8736 H3068 . Que l’Eternel H8199 , le juge H8802 H3117 , soit aujourd’hui H8199 juge H8799 H1121 entre les enfants H3478 d’Israël H1121 et les fils H5983 d’Ammon !

28 H4428 Le roi H1121 des fils H5983 d’Ammon H8085 n’écouta H8804 H1697 point les paroles H3316 que Jephthé H7971 lui fit dire H8804 .

29 H7307 ¶ L’esprit H3068 de l’Eternel H3316 fut sur Jephthé H5674 . Il traversa H8799 H1568 Galaad H4519 et Manassé H5674 ; il passa H8799 H4708 à Mitspé H1568 de Galaad H4708 ; et de Mitspé H1568 de Galaad H5674 , il marcha H8804 H1121 contre les fils H5983 d’Ammon.

30 H3316 Jephthé H5087 fit H8799 H5088 un vœu H3068 à l’Eternel H559 , et dit H8799 H5414 : Si tu livres H8800 H5414 H8799 H3027 entre mes mains H1121 les fils H5983 d’Ammon,

31 H3318 quiconque H8802 H3318 sortira H8799 H1817 des portes H1004 de ma maison H7125 au-devant H8800 H7965 de moi, à mon heureux H7725 retour H8800 H1121 de chez les fils H5983 d’Ammon H3068 , sera consacré à l’Eternel H5927 , et je l’offrirai H8689 H5930 en holocauste.

32 H3316 Jephthé H5674 marcha H8799 H3898 contre H8736 H1121 les fils H5983 d’Ammon H3068 , et l’Eternel H5414 les livra H8799 H3027 entre ses mains.

33 H5221 Il leur fit éprouver H8686 H3966 une très H1419 grande H4347 défaite H6177 , depuis Aroër H935 jusque vers H8800 H4511 Minnith H6242 , espace qui renfermait vingt H5892 villes H58 , et jusqu’à Abel H3754 -Keramim H8677 H64 H1121 . Et les fils H5983 d’Ammon H3665 furent humiliés H8735 H6440 devant H1121 les enfants H3478 d’Israël.

SE⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Y envió Jefté embajadores al rey de los amonitas, diciendo: ¿Qué tienes tú conmigo que has venido a mí para hacer guerra en mi tierra? ¹³ Y el rey de los amonitas respondió a los embajadores de Jefté: Por cuanto Israel tomó mi tierra, cuando subió de Egipto, desde Arnón hasta Jaboc y el Jordán; por tanto, devuélvela ahora en paz. ¹⁴ Y Jefté volvió a enviar otros embajadores al rey de los amonitas, ¹⁵ diciéndole: Jefté ha dicho así: Israel no tomó tierra de Moab, ni tierra de los hijos de Amón; ¹⁶ mas subiendo Israel de Egipto, anduvo por el desierto hasta el mar Bermejo, y llegó a Cades. ¹⁷ Entonces Israel envió embajadores al rey de Edom, diciendo: Yo te ruego que me dejes pasar por tu tierra. Mas el rey de Edom no los escuchó. Envió también al rey de Moab; el cual tampoco quiso; se quedó por tanto Israel en Cades. ¹⁸ Después, yendo por el desierto, rodeó la tierra de Edom y la tierra de Moab, y viniendo por donde nace el sol a la tierra de Moab, asentó su campamento al otro lado de Arnón, y no entraron por el término de Moab; porque Arnón término es de Moab. ¹⁹ Y envió Israel embajadores a Sehón rey de los amorreos, rey de Hesbón, diciéndole: Te ruego que me dejes pasar por tu tierra hasta mi lugar. ²⁰ Mas Sehón no se fió de Israel para darle paso por su término; antes juntando Sehón todo su pueblo, puso campamento en Jahaza, y peleó contra Israel. ²¹ Pero el SEÑOR Dios de Israel entregó a Sehón y a todo su pueblo en mano de Israel, y los venció; y poseyó Israel toda la tierra del amorreo que habitaba en aquella tierra. ²² Poseyeron también todo el término del amorreo desde Arnón hasta Jaboc, y desde el desierto hasta el Jordán. ²³ Así que el SEÑOR el Dios de Israel echó los amorreos delante de su pueblo Israel; ¿y lo has de poseer tú? ²⁴ Si Quemos tu dios te echase alguno, ¿no lo poseerías tú? Así, poseeremos nosotros a todo aquel que echó el SEÑOR nuestro Dios de delante de nosotros. ²⁵ ¿Eres tú ahora en algo mejor que Balac hijo de Zipor, rey de Moab? ¿Por ventura tuvo él cuestión contra Israel? ¿Por ventura hizo guerra contra ellos? ²⁶ Además, Israel ha estado habitando por trescientos años a Hesbón y sus aldeas, a Aroer y sus aldeas, y todas las ciudades que están a los términos de Arnón, ¿por qué no las habéis recobrado en ese tiempo? ²⁷ Así que, yo nada he pecado contra ti, mas tú haces mal conmigo haciéndome guerra; el SEÑOR, que es el juez, juzgue hoy entre los hijos de Israel y los hijos de Amón. ²⁸ Mas el rey de los hijos de Amón no oyó las razones de Jefté que le envió. ²⁹ Y el Espíritu del SEÑOR fue sobre Jefté; y pasó por Galaad y Manasés, y de allí pasó a Mizpa de Galaad, y de Mizpa de Galaad pasó a los hijos de Amón. ³⁰ Y Jefté hizo voto al SEÑOR, diciendo: Si entregares a los amonitas en mis manos, ³¹ cualquiera que me saliere a recibir de las puertas de mi casa, cuando volviere de los amonitas en paz, será del SEÑOR, y le ofreceré en holocausto. ³² Pasó pues Jefté a los hijos de Amón para pelear contra ellos; y el SEÑOR los entregó en su mano. ³³ Y los hirió de grandísimo estrago desde Aroer hasta llegar a Minit, veinte ciudades; y hasta la vega de las viñas. Así fueron dominados los amonitas delante de los hijos de Israel.

ReinaValera⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Y envió Jephté embajadores al rey de los Ammonitas, diciendo: ¿Qué tienes tú conmigo que has venido á mí para hacer guerra en mi tierra? ¹³ Y el rey de los Ammonitas respondió á los embajadores de Jephté: Por cuanto Israel tomó mi tierra, cuando subió de Egipto, desde Arnón hasta Jaboc y el Jordán; por tanto, devuélvelas ahora en paz. ¹⁴ Y Jephté tornó á enviar otros embajadores al rey de los Ammonitas, ¹⁵ Para decirle: Jephté ha dicho así: Israel no tomó tierra de Moab, ni tierra de los hijos de Ammón: ¹⁶ Mas subiendo Israel de Egipto, anduvo por el desierto hasta el mar Bermejo, y llegó á Cades. ¹⁷ Entonces Israel envió embajadores al rey de Edom, diciendo: Yo te ruego que me dejes pasar por tu tierra. Mas el rey de Edom no los escuchó. Envió también al rey de Moab; el cual tampoco quiso: quedóse por tanto Israel en Cades. ¹⁸ Después, yendo por el desierto, rodeó la tierra de Edom y la tierra de Moab, y viniendo por el lado oriental de la tierra de Moab, asentó su campo de estotra parte de Arnón, y no entraron por el término de Moab: porque Arnón término es de Moab. ¹⁹ Y envió Israel embajadores á Sehón rey de los Amorrheos, rey de Hesbón, diciéndole: Ruégote que me dejes pasar por tu tierra hasta mi lugar. ²⁰ Mas Sehón no se fió de Israel para darle paso por su término; antes juntando Sehón toda su gente, puso campo en Jaas, y peleó contra Israel. ²¹ Empero Jehová el Dios de Israel entregó á Sehón y á todo su pueblo en mano de Israel, y venciólos: y poseyó Israel toda la tierra del Amorrheo que habitaba en aquel país. ²² Poseyeron también todo el término del Amorrheo desde Arnón hasta Jaboc, y desde el desierto hasta el Jordán. ²³ Así que Jehová el Dios de Israel echó los Amorrheos delante de su pueblo Israel: ¿y lo has de poseer tú? ²⁴ Si Chêmos tu Dios te echase alguno, ¿no lo poseerías tú? Así poseeremos nosotros á todo aquel que echó Jehová nuestro Dios de delante de nosotros. ²⁵ ¿Eres tú ahora en algo mejor que Balac hijo de Sephor, rey de Moab? ¿tuvo él cuestión contra Israel, ó hizo guerra contra ellos? ²⁶ Cuando Israel ha estado habitando por trescientos años á Hesbón y sus aldeas, á Aroer y sus aldeas, y todas las ciudades que están á los términos de Arnón, ¿por qué no las habéis reclamado en ese tiempo? ²⁷ Así que, yo nada he pecado contra ti, mas tú haces mal conmigo haciéndome guerra: Jehová, que es el juez, juzgue hoy entre los hijos de Israel y los hijos de Ammón. ²⁸ Mas el rey de los hijos de Ammón no atendió las razones de Jephté que le envió. ²⁹ Y el espíritu de Jehová fué sobre Jephté: y pasó por Galaad y Manasés; y de allí pasó á Mizpa de Galaad; y de Mizpa de Galaad pasó á los hijos de Ammón. ³⁰ Y Jephté hizo voto á Jehová, diciendo: Si entregares á los Ammonitas en mis manos, ³¹ Cualquiera que me saliere á recibir de las puertas de mi casa, cuando volviere de los Ammonitas en paz, será de Jehová, y le ofreceré en holocausto. ³² Pasó pues Jephté á los hijos de Ammón para pelear contra ellos; y Jehová los entregó en su mano. ³³ Y los hirió de grandísimo estrago desde Aroer hasta llegar á Minnith, veinte ciudades; y hasta la vega de las viñas.

Albanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Pastaj Jefteu i dërgoi lajmëtarë mbretit të bijve të Amonit për t'i thënë: "Çfarë ka midis teje dhe meje, që ti të vish e të bësh luftë në vendin tim?". ¹³ Mbreti i bijve të Amonit iu përgjegj me këto fjalë lajmëtarëve të Jefteut: "Sepse, kur Izraeli doli nga Egjipti, ai pushtoi vendin tim, nga Arnoni deri në Jabok dhe në Jordan. Tani, pra, m'i kthe këto toka në mënyrë miqësore". ¹⁴ Jefteu i dërgoi përsëri lajmëtarë mbretit të bijve të Amonit për t'i thënë: ¹⁵ "Kështu thotë Jefteu: Izraeli nuk shtiu në dorë as vendin e Moabit, as vendin e bijve të Amonit; ¹⁶ por kur Izraeli doli nga Egjipti dhe kapërceu shkretëtirën deri në Detin e Kuq dhe arriti në Kadesh, ¹⁷ i dërgoi lajmëtarë mbretit të Edomit për t'i thënë: "Të lutem më lër të kaloj nëpër vendin tënd"; por mbreti i Edomit nuk pranoi. I dërgoi lajmëtarë edhe mbretit të Moabit, por edhe ky nuk pranoi. Kështu Izraeli mbeti në Kadesh. ¹⁸ Duke ecur pastaj nëpër shkretëtirë, shkoi rreth vendit të Edomit dhe vendit të Moabit e arriti në lindje të vendit të Moabit; dhe ngriti kampin e tij matanë Arnonit, pa hyrë të territorin e Moabit, sepse Arnoni përfaqëson kufirin e Moabit. ¹⁹ Pastaj Izraeli i dërgoi lajmëtarë Sihonit, mbretit të Amorejve, dhe të Heshbonit, dhe i tha: "Të lutemi, na lër të kalojmë nëpër vendin tënd për të arritur në tonin". ²⁰ Por Sihoni nuk pati besim ta lërë të kalojë Izraelin nëpër territorin e tij; përkundrazi Sihoni i mblodhi gjithë njerëzit e tij të cilët u vendosën në Jahats dhe luftoi kundër Izraelit. ²¹ Por Zoti, Perëndia i Izraelit e dha Sihonin dhe gjithë njerëzit e tij në duart e Izraelit, që i mundi; kështu Izraeli pushtoi tërë vendin e Amorejve, që banonin në atë krahinë; ²² pushtoi tërë territorin e Amorejve, nga Arnoni në Jabok dhe nga shkretëtira deri në Jordan. ²³ Dhe tani që Zoti, Perëndia i Izraelit, ka dëbuar Amorejtë përpara popullit të Izraelit, ti dëshëron të zotërosh vendin e tyre? ²⁴ A nuk zotëron ti atë që Kemoshi, zoti yt, të ka dhënë në zotërim? Kështu edhe ne do të zotërojmë vendin e atyre që Zoti ka dëbuar para nesh. ²⁵ Mos je ti, vallë, më i mirë se Balaku, bir i Tsiporit dhe mbret i Moabit? A pati ndofta mosmarrëveshje me Izraelin, apo i bëri luftë? ²⁶ Kaluan treqind vjet që Izraeli banon në Heshbon dhe në fshatrat e tij përreth, në Aroer dhe në fshatrat e tij përreth dhe në të gjitha qytetet mbi brigjet e Arnonit; pse nuk ja keni marrë gjatë kësaj kohe? ²⁷ Prandaj unë nuk të kam bërë asnjë padrejtësi dhe ti sillesh keq me mua duke më bërë luftë. Zoti, gjyqtari, le të vendosë sot drejtësinë midis bijve të Izraelit dhe bijve të Amonit!". ²⁸ Por mbreti i bijve të Amonit nuk mori parasysh fjalët që Jefteu i kishte dërguar. ²⁹ Atëherë Fryma e Zotit erdhi mbi Jefteun dhe ai kaloi nëpër Galaadin dhe Manasin, arriti në Mitspah të Galaadit dhe që këtej lëvizi kundër bijve të Amonit. ³⁰ Jefteu lidhi një kusht me Zotin dhe tha: "Në rast se ti më jep në duart e mia bijtë e Amonit, ³¹ çfarë të dalë nga dyert e shtëpisë sime për të më pritur kur të kthehem fitimtar nga bijtë e Amonit, do t'i përkasë Zotit dhe unë do t'ia ofroj si olokaust". ³² Këshu Jefteu marshoi kundër bijve të Amonit për t'u bërë luftë, dhe Zoti ia dha në dorë. ³³ Ai i mundi duke bërë një masakër të madhe, nga Aroeri deri në drejtim të Minithit (duke u marrë njëzet qytete) dhe deri në Abel-Keramim. Kështu bijtë e Amonit u poshtëruan përpara bijve të Izraelit.

RST⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² И послал Иеффай послов к царю Аммонитскому сказать: что тебе до меня, что ты пришел ко мне воевать на земле моей? ¹³ Царь Аммонитский сказал послам Иеффая: Израиль, когда шел из Египта, взял землю мою от Арнона до Иавока и Иордана; итак возврати мне ее с миром. ¹⁴ Иеффай в другой раз послал послов к царю Аммонитскому, ¹⁵ сказать ему: так говорит Иеффай: Израиль не взял земли Моавитской и земли Аммонитской; ¹⁶ ибо когда шли из Египта, Израиль пошел в пустыню к Чермному морю и пришел в Кадес; ¹⁷ оттуда послал Израиль послов к царю Едомскому сказать: „позволь мнепройти землею твоею"; но царь Едомский не послушал; и к царю Моавитскому он посылал, но и тот не согласился; посему Израиль оставался в Кадесе. ¹⁸ И пошел пустынею, и миновал землю Едомскую и землю Моавитскую, и, придя к восточному пределу земли Моавитской, расположился станом за Арноном; но не входил в пределы Моавитские, ибо Арнон есть предел Моава. ¹⁹ И послал Израиль послов к Сигону, царю Аморрейскому, царю Есевонскому, и сказал ему Израиль: позволь нам пройти землею твоею в свое место. ²⁰ Но Сигон не согласился пропустить Израиля чрез пределы свои, и собрал Сигон весь народ свой, и расположился станом в Иааце, и сразился с Израилем. ²¹ И предал Господь Бог Израилев Сигона и весь народ его в рукиИзраилю, и он побил их; и получил Израиль в наследие всюземлю Аморрея, жившего в земле той; ²² и получили они в наследие все пределы Аморрея от Арнона до Иавока и от пустыни до Иордана. ²³ Итак Господь Бог Израилев изгнал Аморрея от лица народа СвоегоИзраиля, а ты хочешь взять его наследие? ²⁴ Не владеешь ли ты тем, что дал тебе Хамос, бог твой? И мы владеемвсем тем, что дал нам в наследие Господь Бог наш. ²⁵ Разве ты лучше Валака, сына Сепфорова, царя Моавитского? Ссорился ли он с Израилем, или воевал ли с ними? ²⁶ Израиль уже живет триста лет в Есевоне и в зависящих от него городах , в Ароере и зависящих от него городах , и во всех городах, которые близ Арнона; для чего вы в то время неотнимали их ? ²⁷ А я не виновен пред тобою, и ты делаешь мне зло, выступив против меня войною. Господь Судия да будет ныне судьею между сынами Израиля и между Аммонитянами! ²⁸ Но царь Аммонитский не послушал слов Иеффая, с которыми он посылал к нему. ²⁹ И был на Иеффае Дух Господень, и прошел он Галаад и Манассию, и прошел Массифу Галаадскую, и из Массифы Галаадской пошел к Аммонитянам. ³⁰ И дал Иеффай обет Господу и сказал: если Ты предашь Аммонитян в руки мои, ³¹ то по возвращении моем с миром от Аммонитян, что выйдет из воротдома моего навстречу мне, будет Господу, и вознесу сие на всесожжение. ³² И пришел Иеффай к Аммонитянам – сразиться с ними, и предал их Господь в руки его; ³³ и поразил их поражением весьма великим, от Ароера до Минифа двадцать городов, и до Авель-Керамима, и смирились Аммонитяне пред сынами Израилевыми.

Arabic⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² فارسل يفتاح رسلا الى ملك بني عمون يقول ما لي ولك انك اتيت اليّ للمحاربة في ارضي. ¹³ فقال ملك بني عمون لرسل يفتاح. لان اسرائيل قد اخذ ارضي عند صعوده من مصر من ارنون الى اليبّوق والى الاردن. فالآن ردها بسلام. ¹⁴ وعاد ايضا يفتاح وارسل رسلا الى ملك بني عمون. ¹⁵ وقال له هكذا يقول يفتاح. لم ياخذ اسرائيل ارض موآب ولا ارض بني عمون. ¹⁶ لانه عند صعود اسرائيل من مصر سار في القفر الى بحر سوف واتى الى قادش ¹⁷ وارسل اسرائيل رسلا الى ملك ادوم قائلا دعني اعبر في ارضك. فلم يسمع ملك ادوم. فارسل ايضا الى ملك موآب فلم يرض. فاقام اسرائيل في قادش. ¹⁸ وسار في القفر ودار بارض ادوم وارض موآب وأتى من مشرق الشمس الى ارض موآب ونزل في عبر ارنون ولم يأتوا الى تخم موآب لان ارنون تخم موآب. ¹⁹ ثم ارسل اسرائيل رسلا الى سيحون ملك الاموريين ملك حشبون وقال له اسرائيل دعني اعبر في ارضك الى مكاني. ²⁰ ولم يأمن سيحون لاسرائيل ان يعبر في تخمه بل جمع سيحون كل شعبه ونزلوا في ياهص وحاربوا اسرائيل. ²¹ فدفع الرب اله اسرائيل سيحون وكل شعبه ليد اسرائيل فضربوهم وامتلك اسرائيل كل ارض الاموريين سكان تلك الارض. ²² فامتلكوا كل تخم الاموريين من ارنون الى اليبوق ومن القفر الى الاردن. ²³ والآن الرب اله اسرائيل قد طرد الاموريين من امام شعبه اسرائيل. أفانت تمتلكه. ²⁴ أليس ما يملّكك اياه كموش الهك تمتلك. وجميع الذين طردهم الرب الهنا من امامنا فاياهم نمتلك. ²⁵ والآن فهل انت خير من بالاق بن صفور ملك موآب فهل خاصم اسرائيل او حاربهم محاربة. ²⁶ حين اقام اسرائيل في حشبون وقراها وعروعير وقراها وكل المدن التي على جانب ارنون ثلاث مئة سنة فلماذا لم تستردها في تلك المدة. ²⁷ فانا لم اخطئ اليك واما انت فانك تفعل بي شرا بمحاربتي. ليقض الرب القاضي اليوم بين بني اسرائيل وبني عمون. ²⁸ فلم يسمع ملك بني عمون لكلام يفتاح الذي ارسل اليه ²⁹ فكان روح الرب على يفتاح فعبر جلعاد ومنسّى وعبر مصفاة جلعاد ومن مصفاة جلعاد عبر الى بني عمون. ³⁰ ونذر يفتاح نذرا للرب قائلا. ان دفعت بني عمون ليدي ³¹ فالخارج الذي يخرج من ابواب بيتي للقائي عند رجوعي بالسلامة من عند بني عمون يكون للرب واصعده محرقة. ³² ثم عبر يفتاح الى بني عمون لمحاربتهم. فدفعهم الرب ليده. ³³ فضربهم من عروعير الى مجيئك الى منّيت عشرين مدينة والى آبل الكروم ضربة عظيمة جدا. فذلّ بني عمون امام بني اسرائيل

Bulgarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² И Ефтай изпрати пратеници до царя на синовете на Амон да кажат: Какво има между мен и теб, че си дошъл против мен да се биеш срещу земята ми? ¹³ И царят на синовете на Амон отговори на пратениците на Ефтай: Понеже Израил отне земята ми, когато дойде от Египет — от Арнон до Явок и до Йордан; затова сега върни тези земи с мир. ¹⁴ И Ефтай отново изпрати пратеници до царя на синовете на Амон ¹⁵ да му кажат: Така казва Ефтай: Израил не е отнел моавската земя, нито земята на синовете на Амон. ¹⁶ А когато Израил излезе от Египет и вървеше през пустинята към Червеното море, и беше дошъл в Кадис, ¹⁷ тогава Израил изпрати пратеници до едомския цар да кажат: Нека премина, моля те, през земята ти. Но едомският цар не послуша. Изпратиха и до моавския цар, но и той не склони. Затова Израил остана в Кадис. ¹⁸ Тогава Израил мина през пустинята и обиколи едомската земя и моавската земя, и дойде откъм изгрев слънце до моавската земя, и се разположи на стан оттатък Арнон, но не влезе в областта на Моав, защото Арнон беше границата на Моав. ¹⁹ И Израил изпрати пратеници до аморейския цар Сион, царя на Есевон, и Израил му каза: Моля те, нека преминем през земята ти до нашето място. ²⁰ Но Сион не се довери на Израил да го пусне да мине през областта му и Сион събра целия си народ и се разположи на стан в Яса, и воюва срещу Израил. ²¹ И ГОСПОД, Израилевият Бог, предаде Сион и целия му народ в ръката на Израил и те ги разбиха. Така Израил завладя цялата земя на аморейците, които живееха в онази земя. ²² Така те завладяха цялата област на аморейците, от Арнон до Явок, и от пустинята чак до Йордан. ²³ И сега, след като ГОСПОД, Израилевият Бог, е изгонил аморейците отпред Своя народ Израил, ти ли ще го изгониш? ²⁴ Няма ли да притежаваш онова, което твоят бог Хамос ти дава да притежаваш? Така и ние ще притежаваме земята на всекиго, когото ГОСПОД, нашият Бог, изгонва отпред нас. ²⁵ И сега, да не би ти да си по-добър от моавския цар Валак, сина на Сепфор? Спорил ли е той някога с Израил, или воювал ли е някога срещу него? ²⁶ Докато Израил живееше триста години в Есевон и селата му, в Ароир и селата му и във всичките градове по бреговете на Арнон, защо не си ги взехте обратно през това време? ²⁷ И не аз съм съгрешил против теб, а ти ми правиш зло, като воюваш срещу мен. Нека ГОСПОД, Съдията, да отсъди днес между израилевите синове и синовете на Амон! ²⁸ Но царят на синовете на Амон не послуша думите, които Ефтай му изпрати. ²⁹ Тогава ГОСПОДНИЯТ Дух беше на Ефтай и той мина през Галаад и Манасия, мина и през Масфа Галаадска, и от Масфа Галаадска излезе срещу синовете на Амон. ³⁰ И Ефтай направи обрек пред ГОСПОДА и каза: Ако наистина предадеш синовете на Амон в ръката ми, ³¹ тогава онова, което излезе от вратата на дома ми да ме посрещне, когато се върна с мир от синовете на Амон, да бъде на ГОСПОДА, и аз ще го принеса като всеизгаряне! ³² Така Ефтай излезе срещу синовете на Амон, за да се бие срещу тях, и ГОСПОД ги предаде в ръката му. ³³ И той им нанесе много голямо поражение от Ароир до прохода на Минит, двадесет града, и до Авел-Керамим. Така синовете на Амон бяха покорени пред израилевите синове.

Croatian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Jiftah posla onda poslanike kralju Amonaca s porukom: "Što ima između tebe i mene da si došao ratovati protiv moje zemlje?" ¹³ Kralj Amonaca odgovori Jiftahovim poslanicima: "U vrijeme kada je izlazio iz Egipta, Izrael ja zaposjeo moju zemlju od Arnona do Jaboka i Jordana. Zato mi je sada dragovoljno vrati!" ¹⁴ Jiftah nanovo pošalje glasnike kralju Amonaca ¹⁵ i poruči mu: "Ovako govori Jiftah: Nije Izrael zaposjeo ni moapsku ni amonsku zemlju, ¹⁶ nego je, izišavši iz Egipta, Izrael prešao pustinjom do Crvenog mora i došao u Kadeš. ¹⁷ Tada je poslao Izrael poslanike edomskom kralju s molbom: 'Htio bih proći kroz tvoju zemlju!' Ali ga edomski kralj ne posluša. Poslao ih je i moapskom kralju, ali ni on ne htjede, te Izrael ostade u Kadešu. ¹⁸ Onda je preko pustinje zaobišao edomsku i moapsku zemlju i došao na istok od moapske zemlje. Narod se utaborio s one strane Arnona ne prelazeći granice Moaba, jer Arnon bijaše moapska međa. ¹⁹ Izrael posla zatim poslanike Sihonu, amorejskom kralju, koji je vladao u Hešbonu, i poruči mu: 'Pusti nas da prođemo kroz tvoju zemlju do mjesta koje nam je određeno.' ²⁰ Ali Sihon ne dopusti Izraelu da prođe preko njegova područja, nego skupi svu svoju vojsku koja bijaše utaborena u Jahasu i zametnu boj s Izraelom. ²¹ Jahve, Bog Izraelov, predade Sihona i svu njegovu vojsku u ruke Izraelu, koji ih porazi, te Izrael zaposjede svu zemlju Amorejaca koji nastavahu to područje. ²² Zaposjeo je tako svu zemlju Amorejaca od Arnona do Jaboka i od pustinje do Jordana. ²³ I sada kad je Jahve, Bog Izraelov, protjerao Amorejce pred svojim narodom Izraelom, ti bi nas htio odagnati? ²⁴ Zar ne posjeduješ sve što je tvoj bog Kemoš bio oteo starim posjednicima? Tako i sve ono što je Jahve, naš Bog, oteo starim posjednicima, mi sada posjedujemo! ²⁵ Po čemu si ti bolji od moapskog kralja Balaka, sina Siporova? Je li se i on sporio s Izraelom? Je li on ratovao protiv njega? ²⁶ Kada se Izrael nastanio u Hešbonu i u njegovim selima, u Aroeru i u njegovim selima, a tako i po svim gradovima na obali Jordana - evo, već tri stotine godina - zašto ih tada niste oteli? ²⁷ Nisam ja tebi skrivio nego ti meni činiš krivo ratujući protiv mene. Neka Jahve, Sudac, danas presudi između sinova Izraelovih i sinova Amonovih." ²⁸ Ali kralj Amonaca ne posluša riječi što mu ih je poručio Jiftah. ²⁹ Duh Jahvin siđe na Jiftaha te on pođe kroz Gileadovo i Manašeovo pleme, prođe kroz gileadsku Mispu, a od gileadske Mispe dođe iza Amonaca. ³⁰ I Jiftah se zavjetova Jahvi: "Ako mi predaš u ruke Amonce, ³¹ tko prvi iziđe na vrata moje kuće u susret meni kada se budem vraćao kao pobjednik iz boja s Amoncima bit će Jahvin i njega ću prinijeti kao paljenicu." ³² Jiftah krenu protiv Amonaca da ih napadne i Jahve ih izruči u njegove ruke. ³³ I porazi ih Jiftah od Aroera do blizu Minita - u dvadeset gradova - i sve do Abel Keramima. Bijaše to njihov veliki poraz; i Amonci bijahu poniženi pred Izraelom.

BKR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Potom poslal Jefte posly k králi Ammonitskému s tímto poručením: Co máš ke mně, že jsi vytáhl na mne, abys bojoval proti zemi mé? ¹³ I odpověděl král Ammonitský poslům Jefte: Že vzal Izrael zemi mou, když vyšel z Egypta, od Arnon až k Jaboku a až k Jordánu; protož nyní vrať mi ji pokojně. ¹⁴ Opět pak poslal Jefte posly k králi Ammonitskému, ¹⁵ A řekl jemu: Takto praví Jefte: Nevzalť Izrael země Moábské, ani země synů Ammonových. ¹⁶ Ale když vyšli z Egypta, šel Izrael přes poušť až k moři Rudému, a přišel do Kádes. ¹⁷ Odkudž poslal Izrael posly k králi Edomskému, řka: Prosím, nechť projdu skrze zemi tvou. A nechtěl ho slyšeti král Edomský. Poslal také k králi Moábskému, a nechtěl povoliti. A tak zůstal Izrael v Kádes. ¹⁸ Potom když šel přes poušť, obcházel zemi Edomskou a zemi Moábskou, a přišed od východu slunce zemi Moábské, položil se před Arnon, a nevešli na pomezí Moábské; nebo Arnon jest meze Moábských. ¹⁹ Protož poslal Izrael posly k Seonovi králi Amorejskému, to jest, k králi Ezebon, a řekl jemu Izrael: Prosím, nechť projdu skrze zemi tvou až k místu svému. ²⁰ Ale Seon nedověřoval Izraelovi, aby přejíti měl pomezí jeho. Protož shromáždil Seon všecken lid svůj, a položili se v Jasa, a bojoval proti Izraelovi. ²¹ I dal Hospodin Bůh Izraelský Seona i všecken lid jeho v ruku Izraelských, a porazili je. I opanoval dědičně Izrael všecku zemi Amorejského, té země obyvatele. ²² A tak opanovali všecko pomezí Amorejského od Arnon až k Jaboku a od pouště až k Jordánu. ²³ Když tedy Hospodin Bůh Izraelský vyhladil Amorejského od tváři lidu svého Izraelského, proč ty chceš panovati nad ním? ²⁴ Zdaliž tím, což tobě dal Chámos bůh tvůj k vládařství, vládnouti nemáš? Takž, kterékoli vyhladil Hospodin Bůh náš od tváři naší, jejich dědictvím my vládneme. ²⁵ K tomu pak, zdali jsi ty čím lepší Baláka syna Seforova, krále Moábského? Zdali se kdy vadil s Izraelem? Zdali kdy bojoval proti nim? ²⁶ Ješto již bydlí Izrael v Ezebon a ve vsech jeho, i v Aroer, a ve vsech jeho, i ve všech městech, kteráž jsou při pomezí Arnon, za tři sta let. Proč jste jí neodjali v tak dlouhém času? ²⁷ Protož ne já provinil jsem proti tobě, ale ty mně zle činíš, bojuje proti mně. Nechť soudí Hospodin soudce dnes mezi syny Izraelskými a mezi syny Ammonovými. ²⁸ Král pak Ammonitský neuposlechl slov Jefte, kteráž vzkázal jemu. ²⁹ V tom nadšen byl Jefte duchem Hospodinovým, i táhl skrze Galád a Manasse, prošel i Masfa v Galád, a z Masfy v Galád táhl proti Ammonitským. ³⁰ (Učinil pak Jefte slib Hospodinu, a řekl: Jestliže jistotně dáš mi Ammonitské v ruku mou: ³¹ I stane se, že což by koli vyšlo ze dveří domu mého mně vstříc, když se vrátím v pokoji od Ammonitských, bude Hospodinovo, abych to obětoval v obět zápalnou.) ³² Přitáhl tedy Jefte na Ammonitské, aby bojoval proti nim, a dal je Hospodin v ruku jeho. ³³ I pobil je od Aroer, až kudy se jde do Mennit, dvadceti měst, a až do Abel vinic porážkou velikou velmi; a sníženi jsou Ammonitští před syny Izraelskými.

Danish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Da sendte Jeftha Bud til Ammons Børns Konge og lod sige: Hvad har jeg med dig at gøre, at du kommer til mig at stride imod mit Land? ¹³ Ammons Børns Konge sagde til Jefthas Bud: Fordi Israel har taget mit Land, der han drog op af Ægypten, fra Arnon og indtil Jakob og indtil Jordanen; saa giv mig nu de Stæder tilbage med Fred! ¹⁴ Men Jeftha sendte atter Bud til Ammons Børns Konge. ¹⁵ Og han lod sige til ham: Saa siger Jeftha: Israel har ikke taget Moabs Land eller Ammons Børns Land; ¹⁶ thi der de droge op af Ægypten, da vandrede Israel i Ørken indtil det røde Hav, og kom til Kades. ¹⁷ Og Israel sendte Bud til Edomiternes Konge og lod sige: Kære, lad mig drage igennem dit Land, men Edomiternes Konge vilde ikke høre; han sendte ogsaa Bud til Moabiternes Konge, men denne vilde heller ikke; saa blev Israel i Kades. ¹⁸ Derefter vandrede han i Ørken og drog omkring, Edomiternes Land og og kom fra Solens Opgang til Moabiternes Land og de lejrede sig paa hin Side Arnon; og de kom ikke i Moabiternes Landemærke; thi Arnon er Moabiternes Landemærke. ¹⁹ Og Israel sendte Bud til Sihon, Amoriternes Konge, Kongen i Hesbon, og Israel lod ham sige: Kære, lad os drage igennem dit Land indtil mit Sted. ²⁰ Men Sihon troede ikke Israel, saa at han lod ham drage igennem sit Landemærke; men Sihon samlede alt sit Folk, og de lejrede sig i Jahza, og han stred imod Israel. ²¹ Da gav HERREN, Israels! Gud, Sihon og alt hans Folk i Israels Haand, og de sloge dem; saa indtog Israel til Ejendom hele Landet fra Amoriterne, som boede sammesteds. ²² Og de indtoge alt Amoriternes Landemærke til Ejendom, fra Arnon og indtil Jabok og fra Ørken og indtil Jordanen. ²³ Saa har nu HERREN, Israels Gud, fordrevet Amoriterne fra sit Folks Israels Ansigt; og du vil tage det i Eje? ²⁴ Mon du ikke tager til Eje det, som din Gud Kamos giver dig i Eje? og alt hvad HERREN vor Gud har gjort ryddeligt for vort Ansigt, det tage vi i Eje. ²⁵ Og nu, er du vel meget bedre end Balak, Zippors Søn, Moabiternes Konge? har han vel trættet med Israel, eller har han vel ført Krig imod dem? ²⁶ Da Israel har boet i Hesbon og i dens tilhørende Stæder og i Aroer og i dens tilhørende Stæder og i alle Stæderne, som ligge ved Arnons Bredder, tre Hundrede Aar, hvorfor friede I dem da ikke i den Tid? ²⁷ Og jeg har intet syndet imod dig, og du gør dette onde imod mig, at du strider imod mig; HERREN, som er Dommer, skal dømme i Dag imellem Israels Børn og imellem Ammons Børn. ²⁸ Men Ammons Børns Konge hørte ikke Jefthas Ord, hvilke han sendte til ham. ²⁹ Og HERRENS Aand var over Jeftha, og han drog igennem Gilead og Manasse; og han drog over til Mizpa i Gilead og fra Mizpa i Gilead drog han over til Ammons Børn, ³⁰ og Jeftha lovede HERREN et Løfte og sagde: Dersom du giver Ammons Børn i min Haand, ³¹ da skal det ske, at det, som gaar ud, ja det, som gaar ud af mit Huses Døre imod mig, naar jeg kommer tilbage med Fred fra Ammons Børn, det skal høre HERREN til, og jeg vil ofre det til et Brændoffer. ³² Saa drog Jeftha over til Ammons Børn for at stride imod dem, og HERREN gav dem i hans Haand. ³³ Og han slog dem fra Aroer, og indtil man kommer til Minnith, tyve Stæder, og indtil Abel-Keramim med et saare stort Slag; saa bleve Ammons Børn ydmygede for Israels Børns Ansigt.

19 H3478 以色列人 H7971 打發 H4397 使者 H567 去見亞摩利 H4428 王 H5511 西宏 H2809 ，就是希實本 H4428 的王 H559 ，對他說 H776 ：求你容我們從你的地 H5674 經過 H5704 ，往 H4725 我們自己的地方去。

20 H5511 西宏 H539 卻不信服 H3478 以色列人 H5674 ，不容他們經過 H1366 他的境界 H622 H ，乃招聚 H5971 他的眾民 H3096 在雅雜 H2583 安營 H3478 ，與以色列人 H3898 爭戰。

21 H3068 耶和華 H3478 ─以色列 H430 的　神 H5511 將西宏 H5971 和他的眾民 H5414 都交在 H3478 以色列人 H3027 手 H5221 中，以色列人就擊殺 H3423 他們，得了 H567 亞摩利人 H776 的全地：

22 H769 從亞嫩河 H2999 到雅博河 H4057 ，從曠野 H3383 直到約但河。

23 H3068 耶和華 H3478 ─以色列 H430 的　神 H5971 在他百姓 H3478 以色列 H6440 面前 H3423 趕出 H567 亞摩利人 H3423 ，你竟要得他們的地麼？

24 H430 你的　神 H3645 基抹 H3423 所賜你的地你不是得 H3423 為業 H3068 麼？耶和華 H430 ─我們的　神 H6440 在我們面前 H3423 所趕出 H3423 的人，我們就得他的地。

25 H4124 難道你比摩押 H4428 王 H6834 西撥 H1121 的兒子 H1111 巴勒 H3478 還強麼？他曾與以色列 H7378 人爭競 H3898 ，或是與他們爭戰麼？

26 H3478 以色列人 H3427 住 H289 希實本 H1323 和屬希實本的鄉村 H6177 ，亞羅珥 H1323 和屬亞羅珥的鄉村 H769 ，並沿亞嫩河 H5892 的一切城邑 H7969 ，已經有三 H3967 百 H8141 年 H6256 了；在這三百年之內 H5337 ，你們為甚麼沒有取回這些地方呢？

27 H2398 原來我沒有得罪 H3898 你，你卻攻打 H7451 我，惡 H6213 H853 待 H8199 我。願審判 H3068 人的耶和華 H3117 今日 H3478 在以色列 H5983 人和亞捫 H8199 人中間判斷是非。

28 H5983 但亞捫 H4428 人的王 H8085 不肯聽 H3316 耶弗他 H7971 打發 H1697 人說的話。

29 H3068 耶和華 H7307 的靈 H3316 降在耶弗他 H5674 身上，他就經過 H1568 基列 H4519 和瑪拿西 H1568 ，來到基列 H4708 的米斯巴 H4708 ，又從米斯巴 H5983 來到亞捫 H1121 人那裡。

30 H3316 耶弗他 H3068 就向耶和華 H5087 許願 H559 ，說 H5983 ：你若將亞捫 H5414 人交在 H3027 我手中，

31 H5983 我從亞捫 H7965 人那裡平平安安 H7725 回來 H1004 的時候，無論甚麼人，先從我家 H1817 門 H3318 出來 H7125 迎接 H5927 我，就必歸你，我也必將他獻上 H5930 為燔祭。

32 H3316 於是耶弗他 H5983 往亞捫 H3898 人那裡去，與他們爭戰 H3068 ；耶和華 H5414 將他們交在 H3027 他手中，

33 H5221 他就大大殺敗 H6177 他們，從亞羅珥 H935 到 H4511 米匿 H3754 H64 ，直到亞備勒基拉明 H6242 ，攻取了二十 H5892 座城 H5983 。這樣亞捫 H3478 人就被以色列 H3665 人制伏了。

Finnish⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Silloin lähetti Jephta sanansaattajat Ammonin lasten kuninkaan tykö, sanoen: mitä sinun on minun kanssani, ettäs tulet sotimaan minua ja minun maakuntaani vastaan? ¹³ Ammonin lasten kuningas vastasi Jephtan sanansaattajia: että Israel otti minun maani, silloin kuin hän läksi Egyptistä, Arnonista Jabbokiin ja Jordaniin asti, anna siis ne jällensä hyvällä sovinnolla. ¹⁴ Jephta lähetti taas sanansaattajat Ammonin lasten kuninkaan tykö, ¹⁵ Jotka sanoivat hänelle: näin sanoo Jephta: ei Israel ottanut maakuntaa Moabilaisilta eikä Ammonin lapsilta: ¹⁶ Sillä kuin he läksivät Egyptistä, matkusti Israel korven lävitse Punaiseen mereen asti, ja tuli Kadekseen. ¹⁷ Ja Israel lähetti sanansaattajat Edomilaisten kuninkaan tykö, sanoen: anna minun käydä sinun maas lävitse. Mutta Edomilaisten kuningas ei kuullut heitä. Ja hän lähetti myös Moabilaisten kuninkaan tykö, joka ei myöskään tahtonut. Niin oli Israel Kadeksessa, ¹⁸ Ja vaelsi korvessa, ja kävi Edomilaisten ja Moabilaisten maita ympäri, ja tuli auringon nousemisen puolelta Moabilaisten maahan, ja sioitti itsensä tuolla puolella Arnonia; ja ei tulleet Moabilaisten rajan sisälle, sillä Arnon on Moabilaisten raja. ¹⁹ Ja Israel lähetti sanansaattajat Sihonin Amorilaisten kuninkaan, Hesbonin kuninkaan tykö, ja sanoi hänelle: salli meidän käydä sinun maas lävitse omaan paikkaani asti. ²⁰ Mutta ei Sihon uskonut Israelia käymään rajansa ohitse, vaan kokosi kaiken väkensä, ja sioittivat itsensä Jaksassa, ja soti Israelia vastaan. ²¹ Mutta Herra Israelin Jumala antoi Sihonin kaiken väkensä kanssa Israelin käsiin, että he löivät heidät: ja niin omisti Israel kaiken maan Amorilaisilta, jotka siinä maassa asuivat, ²² Ja omistivat myös kaikki Amorilaisten rajat, ruveten Arnonista Jabbokiin asti ja korvesta Jordaniin asti. ²³ Näin on Herra Israelin Jumala ajanut Amorilaiset kansansa Israelin edestä pois: ja sinä nyt sen omistaisit. ²⁴ Jos sinun jumalas Kamos on jonkun ajanut pois, omista se, ja anna meidän omistaa kaikki ne, jotka Herra meidän Jumalamme meidän edestämme on ajanut pois. ²⁵ Vai luuletkos sinun paljoa paremmaksi kuin Balak Zipporin poika Moabilaisten kuningas oli? eikö hän riidellyt ja sotinut kappaletta aikaa Israelia vastaan? ²⁶ Kuin Israel asui Hesbonissa ja hänen tyttärissänsä, Aroerissa ja hänen tyttärissänsä, ja kaikissa kaupungeissa, jotka ovat läsnä Arnonia, kolmesataa ajastaikaa; miksi ette ottaneet sitä silloin pois. ²⁷ Ja en minä mitään rikkonut sinua vastaan, ja sinä teet niin pahoin minun kanssani, ettäs sodit minua vastaan: Herra joka on tuomari, tuomitkoon tänäpänä Israelin lasten ja Ammonin lasten välillä. ²⁸ Mutta Ammonin lasten kuningas ei pitänyt lukua Jephtan sanoista, jotka hän oli hänen tykönsä lähettänyt. ²⁹ Silloin tuli Herran henki Jephtan päälle, ja hän kävi Gileadin ja Manassen lävitse, ja Mitspan lävitse, joka on Gileadissa, ja Mitspasta Gileadissa kävi hän Ammonin lasten ylitse. ³⁰ Ja Jephta lupasi Herralle lupauksen ja sanoi: jos sinä kokonansa annat Ammonin lapset minun käsiini: ³¹ Mitä ikänä minun huoneeni ovesta kohtaa minua, kuin minä rauhassa palajan Ammonin lapsilta, se pitää oleman Herran, ja minä uhraan sen polttouhriksi. ³² Niin Jephta meni sotimaan Ammonin lapsia vastaan, ja Herra antoi heidät hänen käsiinsä. ³³ Ja hän löi heidät, Aroerista Minnitiin asti, kaksikymmenstä kaupunkia, ja Abelin viinamäkeen asti sangen suurella tapolla. Ja niin Ammonin lapset alennettiin Israelin lasten edestä.

FinnishPR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Sitten Jefta lähetti ammonilaisten kuninkaan luo sanansaattajia sanomaan: "Mitä sinulla on minun kanssani tekemistä, kun tulet minua vastaan, sotimaan minun maatani vastaan?" ¹³ Niin ammonilaisten kuningas vastasi Jeftan sanansaattajille: "Ottihan Israel tullessaan Egyptistä minun maani Arnonista Jabbokiin ja Jordaniin asti; anna se nyt hyvällä takaisin". ¹⁴ Jefta lähetti taas sanansaattajia ammonilaisten kuninkaan luo ¹⁵ ja käski sanoa hänelle: "Näin sanoo Jefta: Ei Israel ole ottanut Mooabin maata eikä ammonilaisten maata. ¹⁶ Sillä tullessaan Egyptistä Israel kulki erämaan kautta Kaislamerelle saakka ja tuli Kaadekseen. ¹⁷ Ja Israel lähetti sanansaattajia Edomin kuninkaan luo sanomaan: 'Salli minun kulkea maasi läpi'. Mutta Edomin kuningas ei kuullut heitä. Ja he lähettivät sanan myöskin Mooabin kuninkaalle, mutta ei hänkään suostunut. Niin Israel asettui Kaadekseen. ¹⁸ Sitten he kulkivat erämaan kautta ja kiersivät Edomin maan ja Mooabin maan ja tulivat itäpuolelle Mooabin maata ja leiriytyivät Arnonin toiselle puolelle; he eivät tulleet Mooabin alueelle, sillä Arnon on Mooabin raja. ¹⁹ Silloin Israel lähetti sanansaattajia Siihoniin, amorilaisten kuninkaan, Hesbonin kuninkaan, luo, ja Israel käski sanoa hänelle: 'Salli meidän kulkea maasi läpi määräpaikkaamme'. ²⁰ Mutta Siihon ei uskonut Israelia, niin että olisi sallinut sen kulkea alueensa läpi, vaan Siihon kokosi kaiken väkensä, ja he leiriytyivät Jahaaseen, ja hän ryhtyi taisteluun Israelia vastaan. ²¹ Mutta Herra, Israelin Jumala, antoi Siihonin ja kaiken hänen väkensä Israelin käsiin, niin että nämä voittivat heidät. Ja Israel valloitti koko amorilaisten maan, niiden, jotka asuivat siinä maassa. ²² Ja he ottivat omakseen koko amorilaisten alueen Arnonista Jabbokiin asti ja erämaasta Jordaniin saakka. ²³ Näin siis Herra, Israelin Jumala, karkoitti amorilaiset kansansa Israelin tieltä. Ja nyt sinä ottaisit omaksesi heidän maansa! ²⁴ Eikö ole niin: minkä sinun jumalasi Kemos antaa sinun omaksesi, sen sinä otat omaksesi; ja kenen hyvänsä Herra, meidän Jumalamme, karkoittaa meidän tieltämme, sen maan me otamme omaksemme? ²⁵ Vai oletko sinä parempi kuin Baalak, Sipporin poika, Mooabin kuningas? Rakensiko hän riitaa Israelin kanssa, tahi ryhtyikö hän sotaan heitä vastaan? ²⁶ Israel on nyt asunut Hesbonissa ja sen tytärkaupungeissa, Aroerissa ja sen tytärkaupungeissa ja kaikissa Arnonin varrella olevissa kaupungeissa kolmesataa vuotta. Miksi te ette sen ajan kuluessa ole ottaneet niitä pois? ²⁷ Minä en ole rikkonut sinua vastaan, mutta sinä teet pahasti minua kohtaan, kun ryhdyt sotimaan minua vastaan. Herra, joka on tuomari, tuomitkoon tänä päivänä israelilaisten ja ammonilaisten välillä." ²⁸ Mutta ammonilaisten kuningas ei ottanut kuuloonsa, mitä Jefta lähetti hänelle sanomaan. ²⁹ Silloin Herran henki tuli Jeftaan, ja hän kulki Gileadin ja Manassen läpi ja kulki edelleen Gileadin Mispeen, ja Gileadin Mispestä hän lähti ammonilaisia vastaan. ³⁰ Ja Jefta teki lupauksen Herralle ja sanoi: "Jos sinä annat ammonilaiset minun käsiini, ³¹ niin tulkoon kuka tulkoonkin minua vastaan taloni ovesta, kun minä voittajana palaan ammonilaisten luota, hän on oleva Herran, ja minä uhraan hänet polttouhriksi". ³² Sitten Jefta lähti ammonilaisia vastaan, sotimaan heitä vastaan, ja Herra antoi heidät hänen käsiinsä. ³³ Ja hän tuotti heille hyvin suuren tappion, valloittaen maan Aroerista Minnitiin ja Aabel-Keramimiin asti, kaksikymmentä kaupunkia. Niin täytyi ammonilaisten nöyrtyä israelilaisten edessä.

Haitian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Lèfini, Jefte voye mesaje bay wa moun Amon yo pou di l': -Kisa ou gen avèk nou?

Men, yo pa janm janbe lòt bò larivyè Anon paske se li ki te sèvi fwontyè pou peyi Moab la. ¹⁹ Lè sa a pèp Izrayèl la voye mesaje bay Siyon, wa peyi Amori a, ki te rete Esbon. Yo voye mande l' pèmisyon pou yo fè yon ti pase nan peyi l' la pou yo ka rive nan peyi kote yo prale a. ²⁰ Men, Siyon pa t' fè pèp Izrayèl la konfyans, li pa t' kite yo pase. Li sanble tout sòlda li yo, yo vin moute kan yo bò Ajaza, epi yo atake pèp Izrayèl la. ²¹ Men, Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, lage Siyon ansanm ak tout moun li yo nan men pèp Izrayèl la ki bat yo byen bat. Se konsa, pèp Izrayèl la pran peyi a nan men moun Amori yo ki te rete nan zòn lan. ²² Yo pran tout peyi moun Amori yo pou yo, soti larivyè Anon bò nan sid jouk larivyè Jabòk bò nan nò, depi dezè a bò solèy leve jouk larivyè Jouden bò solèy kouche. ²³ Konsa, se Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, ki te mete moun Amori yo deyò pou fè plas pou pèp Izrayèl la, pèp li a. ²⁴ Koulye a, ou ta vle reprann tè a nan men Seyè a? Eske ou pa kenbe pou ou tou sa Kemòch, bondye ou la, ba ou? Epi ou ta vle pou nou pa kenbe sa Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ban nou? ²⁵ Eske ou pi bon pase Balak, pitit gason Zipò a, wa peyi Moab la? Li pa janm leve dwèt li sou pèp Izrayèl la, li pa janm leve vin goumen ak nou. ²⁶ Pèp Izrayèl la gen twasanzan depi li rete lavil Esbon ak lavil Awoyè ansanm ak tout ti bouk ki sou kont yo, ak tout lavil ki sou de bò larivyè Anon an. Poukisa, depi tout tan sa a, nou pa t' reprann yo? ²⁷ Non. Mwen pa fè nou anyen, se nou menm ki fè m' lè nou vin fè m' lagè. Se Seyè a sèl moun ki pou jije. L'a deside ant pèp Izrayèl la ak pèp Amori a kilès ki gen rezon! ²⁸ Men, wa moun Amori yo pa t' koute mesaj Jefte te voye ba li a. ²⁹ Lespri Seyè a te sou Jefte. Jefte travèse peyi Galarad ak peyi Manase, li tounen lavil Mispa nan peyi Galarad. Apre sa, li kite lavil Mispa, li pase nan peyi Amon an. ³⁰ Jefte te fè Seyè a yon ve. Li te di: -Si ou lage moun Amon yo nan men m', ³¹ m'ap ofri ou premye moun ki va soti lakay mwen vin kontre m' lè m'a tounen soti kraze moun Amon yo. M'ap boule l' nèt nan dife pou ou. ³² Se konsa, Jefte janbe lòt bò fwontyè a, li antre nan peyi moun Amon yo, l' al goumen ak yo. Epi Seyè a lage yo nan men l'. ³³ Li bat yo depi lavil Awoyè rive nan tout zòn Minit la jouk Abèl Kiramen. Sa te fè vin lavil antou. Yo te touye anpil moun. Se konsa, moun Amon yo vin soumèt devan pèp Izrayèl la.

Hungarian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² És követeket küldött Jefte az Ammon fiainak királyához, [ezt] izenvén: Mi dolgom van nékem veled, hogy hozzám jöttél, hogy hadakozzál az én földem ellen? ¹³ És monda az Ammon fiainak királya Jefte követeinek: Mert elvette Izráel az én földemet, mikor Égyiptomból feljött, az Arnontól fogva Jabbókig és a Jordánig, most te add azokat vissza békességgel. ¹⁴ Ismét külde pedig Jefte követeket az Ammon fiainak királyához; ¹⁵ És monda néki: Ezt izeni Jefte: Nem vette el Izráel sem a Moáb földét, sem az Ammon fiainak földét; ¹⁶ Mert mikor kijött Égyiptomból, a pusztában bolyongott Izráel egész a Veres tengerig, és mikor Kádesbe ért, ¹⁷ Követeket küldött Izráel Edom királyához, mondván: Hadd menjek át, kérlek, országodon; de Edom királya nem hallgatta meg. Majd Moáb királyához is küldött; de ez sem engedé, és [így] Izráel ott maradt Kádesben. ¹⁸ És mikor [tovább] vándorolt a pusztában, megkerülte Edom földét és Moáb földét, és napkelet felõl érkezett a Moáb földéhez, és [ott] táborozott túl az Arnonon; de Moáb határába nem ment be, mert az Arnon Moáb határa. ¹⁹ Ekkor követeket küldött Izráel Szihonhoz, az Emoreusok királyához, Hesbon királyához, és monda néki Izráel: Hadd menjek át, kérlek, országodon az én helyemre. ²⁰ De Szihon nem hitt Izráelnek, hogy átvonul az õ határán, hanem összegyûjtötte Szihon az õ egész népét, és táborba szállott Jahásban, és harczolt az Izráel ellen. ²¹ Az Úr, az Izráel Istene pedig Szihont és egész népét Izráel kezébe adta, és megverték õket, és elfoglalta Izráel az Emoreusoknak, ama föld lakóinak, egész országát. ²² És birtokába vette az Emoreusok egész határát, az Arnontól fogva Jabbókig, és a pusztától a Jordánig. ²³ És mikor az Úr, az Izráel Istene [maga] ûzte ki az Emoreusokat az õ népe, az Izráel elõl, most te akarnád ezt elfoglalni? ²⁴ Hát nem úgy van-é, hogy a mit bírnod adott néked Kámos, a te istened, azt bírod? Mi meg mindazoknak örökségét bírjuk, a kiket az Úr, a mi Istenünk ûzött ki mi elõlünk. ²⁵ És most vajjon mennyivel vagy te különb Báláknál, Czippor fiánál, Moáb királyánál? Avagy versengett-é [ez] az Izráellel, és hadakozott-é valaha ellenük? ²⁶ Míg Izráel Hesbonban és annak mezõvárosaiban, Aroerben és ennek mezõvárosaiban és az Arnon mellett való összes városokban háromszáz esztendõn át lakott: miért nem foglaltátok el abban az idõben? ²⁷ Én nem vétettem te ellened, hanem te cselekszel velem gonoszt, hogy harczolsz ellenem. Az Úr, a biró, tegyen ma ítéletet az Izráel és az Ammon fiai között. ²⁸ De az Ammon fiainak királya nem hallgatott Jefte szavaira, a melyeket izent néki. ²⁹ Jeftén pedig lõn az Úrnak lelke, és általméne Gileádon és Manassén, és általméne Gileád Mispén, és Gileád Mispébõl felvonult az Ammon fiai ellen. ³⁰ És fogadást tõn Jefte az Úrnak, és monda: Ha mindenestõl kezembe adod az Ammon fiait: ³¹ Akkor valami kijövénd az én házamnak ajtaján elõmbe, mikor békével visszatérek az Ammon fiaitól, legyen az Úré, és megáldozom azt egészen égõáldozatul. ³² És kivonult Jefte az Ammon fiai ellen, hogy hadakozzék velök, és kezébe adá néki azokat az Úr. ³³ És veré õket Aroertõl fogva mindaddig, míg mennél Minnithbe, húsz városon át, és egész Abel-Keraminig nagy vérontással, és az Ammon fiai megaláztattak az Izráel fiai elõtt.

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Setelah itu Yefta mengutus orang kepada raja Amon untuk mengatakan begini, "Apa kesalahan kami sehingga kalian memerangi negeri kami?" ¹³ Raja bangsa Amon menjawab utusan-utusan itu, "Ketika umat Israel datang dari Mesir, mereka mengambil tanah kami, mulai dari Sungai Arnon sampai ke Sungai Yabok dan Sungai Yordan. Sekarang kembalikanlah itu secara damai." ¹⁴ Lalu Yefta mengutus lagi orang-orang kepada raja Amon ¹⁵ untuk menjawab begini, "Umat Israel sama sekali tidak merampas tanah orang Moab atau tanah orang Amon. ¹⁶ Ketika orang Israel meninggalkan Mesir, mereka menuju ke Teluk Akaba melalui padang pasir lalu sampai di Kades. ¹⁷ Kemudian mereka mengutus orang kepada raja Edom untuk minta izin melewati negerinya. Tetapi ia tidak mengizinkan mereka. Kemudian mereka meminta hal yang sama kepada raja Moab, tetapi ia pun tidak mengizinkan mereka melewati daerahnya. Karena itu umat Israel tinggal di Kades. ¹⁸ Kemudian mereka meneruskan perjalanan melalui padang pasir, tetapi tidak melewati daerah Edom dan Moab, melainkan mengambil jalan keliling sampai tiba di sebelah timur Moab, di seberang Sungai Arnon. Mereka berkemah di sana, tetapi tidak menyeberangi sungai itu, karena daerah itu termasuk wilayah Moab. ¹⁹ Sesudah itu umat Israel mengutus orang kepada Sihon, raja Amori di Hesybon untuk minta izin melewati daerah Amori, karena mereka hendak ke daerah mereka sendiri. ²⁰ Tetapi Sihon tidak mengizinkan mereka sebab ia tidak percaya bahwa mereka hanya mau lewat saja. Ia malah mengerahkan seluruh angkatan perangnya lalu bermarkas di Yahas kemudian menyerang Israel. ²¹ Tetapi TUHAN, Allah Israel, memberikan kepada umat Israel kemenangan atas Sihon beserta angkatan perangnya. Demikianlah umat Israel mendapatkan semua tanah-tanah orang Amori yang tinggal di negeri itu. ²² Wilayah Amori itu mereka duduki mulai dari Arnon di sebelah selatan, sampai ke sebelah utara Sungai Yabok, dan dari padang pasir di sebelah timur, sampai ke Sungai Yordan sebelah barat. ²³ Jadi TUHAN, Allah Israel, itulah yang mengusir orang-orang Amori untuk kepentingan umat TUHAN. ²⁴ Dan sekarang ini apakah engkau mau mengambilnya kembali? Tanah yang diberikan oleh Kamos, dewamu itu, kepadamu bolehlah tetap kalian miliki. Tetapi apa yang telah diberikan TUHAN, Allah kami kepada kami, akan kami pertahankan. ²⁵ Kau kira kau lebih baik dari Balak anak Zipor, raja Moab? Balak tidak pernah menantang atau berperang dengan kami. ²⁶ Tiga ratus tahun lamanya Israel menduduki Hesybon dan Aroer serta desa-desa di sekelilingnya, dan semua kota-kota di tepi Sungai Arnon. Dan mengapa selama itu kau tidak mengambilnya kembali? ²⁷ Tidak, kami tidak bersalah kepadamu. Engkaulah yang bersalah karena menyerang kami. Tuhanlah hakim yang hari ini memutuskan perkara ini antara bangsa Israel dan bangsa Amon." ²⁸ Tetapi raja Amon tidak menghiraukan pesan dari Yefta itu. ²⁹ Kemudian Roh TUHAN menguasai Yefta. Maka pergilah Yefta mengunjungi daerah Gilead dan Manasye kemudian kembali ke Mizpa di Gilead. Dari situ ia meneruskan perjalanannya ke wilayah bangsa Amon. ³⁰ Yefta membuat janji ini kepada TUHAN, "Kalau TUHAN mengizinkan saya mengalahkan orang Amon, ³¹ dan saya kembali dengan selamat, maka siapa pun yang pertama-tama keluar dari rumah saya untuk menyambut saya, akan saya persembahkan sebagai kurban bakaran kepada TUHAN." ³² Lalu Yefta menyeberangi Sungai Yordan untuk memerangi orang Amon, dan TUHAN memberikan kemenangan kepadanya. ³³ Yefta menggempur mereka habis-habisan dari Aroer sampai ke daerah sekitar Minit--seluruhnya dua puluh kota--dan sampai sejauh Abel-Keramim. Banyak sekali orang Amon yang mati, sehingga kalahlah mereka terhadap orang Israel.

Italian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Poi Iefte mandò ambasciatori al re de’ figliuoli di Ammon, a dirgli: Che v’è egli fra me e te, che tu sei venuto contro a me, per far guerra nel mio paese? ¹³ E il re de’ figliuoli di Ammon disse agli ambasciatori di Iefte: Io son venuto, perciocchè, quando Israele salì fuor di Egitto, prese il mio paese, dall’Arnon fino a Iabboc, e infino al Giordano; ora dunque rendimi quelle contrade amichevolmente. ¹⁴ E Iefte mandò di nuovo ambasciatori al re de’ figliuoli di Ammon, ¹⁵ a dirgli: Così dice Iefte: Israele non prese il paese di Moab, nè il paese de’ figliuoli di Ammon. ¹⁶ Anzi, dopo che Israele fu salito fuor di Egitto, e fu camminato per lo deserto fino al mar rosso, e fu giunto a Cades, ¹⁷ mandò ambasciatori al re di Edom, a dirgli: Deh! lascia che io passi per lo tuo paese; ma il re di Edom nol consentì; mandò eziandio al re di Moab, e anch’egli non volle. Laonde, dopo che Israele fu dimorato in Cades, ¹⁸ camminò per lo deserto, e circuì il paese di Edom, e il paese di Moab, e giunse al lato orientale del paese di Moab, e si accampò di là dall’Arnon, e non entrò dentro a’ confini di Moab, consiossiachè l’Arnon sia il confine di Moab. ¹⁹ E Israele mandò ambasciatori a Sihon, re degli Amorrei, re di Hesbon, e dirgli: Deh! lascia che noi passiamo per lo tuo paese, finchè siamo giunti al nostro luogo. ²⁰ Ma Sihon non si fidò d’Israele, ch’egli passasse per li suoi confini; anzi adunò tutta la sua gente, e con essa si accampò in Iaas, e combattè con Israele. ²¹ E il Signore Iddio d’Israele diede Sihon, e tutta la sua gente, nelle mani degl’Israeliti, i quali li percossero, e conquistarono tutto il paese degli Amorrei, che abitavano in quel paese. ²² Conquistarono eziandio tutti i confini degli Amorrei, dall’Arnon fino a Iabboc, e dal deserto fino al Giordano. ²³ Ora dunque, avendo il Signore Iddio d’Israele cacciati gli Amorrei d’innanzi ad Israele, suo popolo, possederesti tu il lor paese? ²⁴ Non possederesti tu ciò che Chemos, tuo dio, ti avrebbe dato a possedere? noi altresì possederemo il paese di tutti quelli che il Signore Iddio nostro avrà cacciati d’innanzi a noi. ²⁵ Ed ora vali tu in alcun modo meglio che Balac, figliuolo di Sippor, re di Moab? contese egli con Israele, o fecegli guerra? ²⁶ Essendo Israele dimorato in Hesbon, e nelle terre del suo territorio, e in Aroer, e nelle terre del suo territorio, e in tutte le città che sono lungo l’Arnon, lo spazio di trecent’anni, perchè non le avete voi riscosse in quel tempo? ²⁷ E anche io non t’ho offeso; e tu procedi malvagiamente inverso me, guerreggiando contro a me. Il Signore, che è il Giudice, giudichi oggi fra i figliuoli d’Israele e i figliuoli di Ammon. ²⁸ Ma il re de’ figliuoli di Ammon non attese alle parole, che Iefte gli avea mandato a dire. ²⁹ E lo Spirito del Signore fu sopra Iefte, ed egli traversò Galaad e Manasse, e passò in Mispe di Galaad, e di Mispe di Galaad passò a’ figliuoli di Ammon. ³⁰ E Iefte votò un voto al Signore, e disse: Se pur tu mi dài i figliuoli di Ammon nelle mani; ³¹ quando io ritornerò in pace da’ figliuoli di Ammon, ciò che uscirà dell’uscio di casa mia sarà del Signore, e io l’offerirò in olocausto. ³² Iefte adunque passò a’ figliuoli di Ammon, per combatter con loro; e il Signore li diede nelle mani di esso. ³³ Ed egli li percosse d’una grandissima sconfitta, da Aroer fino a Minnit, venti città; e fino alla pianura delle vigne. E così i figliuoli di Ammon furono abbassati dinanzi ai figliuoli d’Israele.

ItalianRiveduta⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Poi Jefte inviò de’ messi al re de’ figliuoli di Ammon per dirgli: "Che questione c’è fra me e te che tu venga contro di me per far guerra al mio paese?" ¹³ E il re de’ figliuoli di Ammon rispose ai messi di Jefte: "Mi son mosso perché, quando Israele salì dall’Egitto, s’impadronì del mio paese, dall’Arnon fino allo Jabbok e al Giordano; rendimelo all’amichevole". ¹⁴ Jefte inviò di nuovo de’ messi al re de’ figliuoli di Ammon per dirgli: ¹⁵ "Così dice Jefte: Israele non s’impadronì del paese di Moab, né del paese de’ figliuoli di Ammon; ¹⁶ ma, quando Israele salì dall’Egitto e attraversò il deserto fino al mar Rosso e giunse a Kades, ¹⁷ inviò de’ messi al re di Edom per dirgli: Ti prego, lasciami passare per il tuo paese; ma il re di Edom non acconsentì. Mandò anche al re di Moab, il quale pure rifiutò; e Israele rimase a Kades. ¹⁸ Poi camminò per il deserto, fece il giro del paese di Edom e del paese di Moab, giunse a oriente del paese di Moab, e si accampò di là dall’Arnon, senza entrare nel territorio di Moab; perché l’Arnon segna il confine di Moab. ¹⁹ E Israele inviò de’ messi a Sihon, re degli Amorei, re di Heshbon, e gli fe’ dire: Ti preghiamo lasciaci passare dal tuo paese, per arrivare al nostro. ²⁰ Ma Sihon non si fidò d’Israele per permettergli di passare per il suo territorio; anzi Sihon radunò tutta la sua gente, s’accampò a Jahats, e combatté contro Israele. ²¹ E l’Eterno, l’Iddio d’Israele, diede Sihon e tutta la sua gente nelle mani d’Israele, che li sconfisse; così Israele conquistò tutto il paese degli Amorei, che abitavano quella contrada; ²² conquistò tutto il territorio degli Amorei, dall’Arnon allo Jabbok e dal deserto al Giordano. ²³ E ora che l’Eterno, l’Iddio d’Israele, ha cacciato gli Amorei d’innanzi a Israele, ch’è il suo popolo, dovresti tu possedere il loro paese? ²⁴ Non possiedi tu quello che Kemosh, il tuo dio, t’ha fatto possedere? Così anche noi possederemo il paese di quelli che l’Eterno ha cacciati d’innanzi a noi. ²⁵ Sei tu forse da più di Balak, figliuolo di Tsippor, re di Moab? Mosse egli querela ad Israele, o gli fece egli guerra? ²⁶ Son trecent’anni che Israele abita ad Heshbon e nelle città del suo territorio, ad Aroer e nelle città del suo territorio, e in tutte le città lungo l’Arnon; perché non gliele avete tolte durante questo tempo? ²⁷ E io non t’ho offeso, e tu agisci male verso di me, movendomi guerra. L’Eterno, il giudice, giudichi oggi tra i figliuoli d’Israele e i figliuoli di Ammon!" ²⁸ Ma il re de’ figliuoli di Ammon non diede ascolto alle parole che Jefte gli avea fatto dire. ²⁹ Allora lo spirito dell’Eterno venne su Jefte, che attraversò Galaad e Manasse, passò a Mitspa di Galaad, e da Mitspa di Galaad mosse contro i figliuoli di Ammon. ³⁰ E Jefte fece un voto all’Eterno, e disse: "Se tu mi dài nelle mani i figliuoli di Ammon, ³¹ la persona che uscirà dalle porte di casa mia per venirmi incontro quando tornerò vittorioso dai figliuoli di Ammon, sarà dell’Eterno, e io l’offrirò in olocausto". ³² E Jefte marciò contro i figliuoli di Ammon per far loro guerra, e l’Eterno glieli diede nelle mani. ³³ E egli inflisse loro una grandissima sconfitta, da Aroer fin verso Minnith, prendendo loro venti città, e fino ad Abel-Keramim. Così i figliuoli di Ammon furono umiliati dinanzi ai figliuoli d’Israele.

Lithuanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Jeftė siuntė pas amonitų karalių pasiuntinius, klausdamas: “Ko nori iš manęs? Kodėl atėjai kariauti prieš mano kraštą?” ¹³ Amonitų karalius atsakė Jeftės pasiuntiniams: “Dėl to, kad Izraelis, atėjęs iš Egipto, užėmė mano kraštą nuo Arnono iki Jaboko ir Jordano upių. Grąžink man tai geruoju”. ¹⁴ Jeftė vėl siuntė pasiuntinius pas Amono karalių, ¹⁵ sakydamas: “Izraelitai neužėmė nei Moabo, nei amonitų šalies. ¹⁶ Jie, išėję iš Egipto, ėjo per dykumą ligi Raudonosios jūros ir atvyko į Kadešą. ¹⁷ Iš čia Izraelis siuntė pasiuntinius pas Edomo karalių, prašydamas leisti jiems pereiti per jo žemę. Bet Edomo karalius nesutiko. Jie kreipėsi taip pat ir į Moabo karalių, bet ir tas nesutiko jų praleisti. Taip Izraelis pasiliko Kadeše. ¹⁸ Po to jie dykuma apėjo Edomo bei Moabo žemes ir, atėję į rytus nuo Moabo, prie Arnono upės, pasistatė stovyklas. Jie nėjo į Moabo žemę, nes Arnonas yra Moabo krašto siena. ¹⁹ Izraelis siuntė pasiuntinius pas amoritų karalių Sihoną į Hešboną, prašydamas leisti jiems pereiti per jo kraštą. ²⁰ Sihonas nepasitikėjo Izraeliu ir nepraleido jo. Jis surinko visą savo kariuomenę, pasistatė stovyklą Jahace ir pradėjo kovą su Izraeliu. ²¹ Viešpats, Izraelio Dievas, atidavė Sihoną ir visus jo žmones į Izraelio rankas, ir šie juos sumušė. Taip Izraelis užėmė visą amoritų žemę ²² nuo Arnono iki Jaboko ir nuo dykumos iki Jordano. ²³ Viešpats, Izraelio Dievas, išvarė amoritus, kad tą kraštą atiduotų Izraeliui, o tu nori jame apsigyventi. ²⁴ Argi tu negyveni ten, kur tavo dievas Kemošas tau duoda? Mes gyvename ten, kur Viešpats, mūsų Dievas, mums duoda. ²⁵ Ar tu geresnis už Ciporo sūnų Balaką, Moabo karalių? Ar jis kada nors ginčijosi ar kovojo su Izraeliu? ²⁶ Izraelis gyvena Hešbone ir jo apylinkėse, Aroeryje ir jo apylinkėse bei miestuose palei Arnoną jau tris šimtus metų. Kodėl per tą laiką jų neišlaisvinote? ²⁷ Aš nekaltas prieš tave, bet tu, pradėdamas karą, piktai elgiesi su manimi. Viešpats Teisėjas tegul šiandien daro teismą tarp izraelitų ir amonitų”. ²⁸ Amonitų karalius nekreipė dėmesio į Jeftės žodžius, kuriuos jis jam kalbėjo per pasiuntinius. ²⁹ Tada Viešpaties Dvasia nužengė ant Jeftės ir jis perėjo per Gileadą, Manasą, toliau pro Micpą Gileade ir iš Mispos Gileado traukė prieš amonitus. ³⁰ Jeftė padarė Viešpačiui įžadą: “Jei atiduosi amonitus į mano rankas, ³¹ kai aš ramybėje grįšiu nuo amonitų, pirmą, išėjusį iš mano namų manęs pasitikti, paaukosiu Viešpačiui kaip deginamąją auką”. ³² Jeftė traukė prieš amonitus, ir Viešpats atidavė juos į jo rankas. ³³ Nuo Aroerio iki Minito užėmė dvidešimt miestų ir pasiekė vynuogynų slėnį be gailesčio juos žudydamas. Taip amonitai buvo pažeminti prieš izraelitus.

PBG⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Potem wyprawił Jefte posły do króla synów Ammonowych, mówiąc: Co ja mam z tobą, żeś przyciągnął na mię, abyś walczył przeciwko ziemi mojej? ¹³ Na co odpowiedział król synów Ammonowych posłom Jeftego: Że wziął Izrael ziemię moję, gdy szedł z Egiptu, od Arnon aż do Jabok i aż do Jordanu: przetoż teraz wróć mi ją w pokoju. ¹⁴ Po wtóre jeszcze Jefte wyprawił posły do króla synów Ammonowych. ¹⁵ I rzekł mu: Tak mówi Jefte: Nie wziął Izrael ziemi Moabskiej, ani ziemi synów Ammonowych. ¹⁶ Ale gdy z Egiptu szedł Izrael przez puszczą aż ku morzu czerwonemu, a przyszedł do Kades. ¹⁷ Skąd wyprawił Izrael posły do króla Edomskiego, mówiąc: Proszę niech przejdę przez ziemię twoję, i nie pozwolił król Edomski, także i do króla Moabskiego posłał, i nie pozwolił; a tak został Izrael w Kades. ¹⁸ A gdy szedł przez puszczą, obszedł ziemię Edomską, i ziemię Moabską, a przyszedł od wschodu słońca ziemi Moabskiej, i położyli się obozem za Arnon, a nie wszedł w granice Moabskie; bo Arnon jest granicą Moabską. ¹⁹ Dlategoż wyprawił Izrael posły do Sehona, króla Amorejskiego, króla w Hesebon, i rzekł mu Izrael: Niech przejdę proszę przez ziemię twoję aż do miejsca mego. ²⁰ Ale nie dowierzał Sehon Izraelowi, aby iść miał przez granicę jego; owszem zebrał Sehon wszystek lud swój, i położył się obozem w Jasa, i zwiódł bitwę z Izraelem. ²¹ I dał Pan, Bóg Izraelski, Sehona, i wszystek lud jego w ręce Izraelowe, i poraził je, a posiadł Izrael wszystkę ziemię Amorejczyka, który mieszkał w onej ziemi. ²² A tak posiedli wszystkie granice Amorejskie od Arnon aż do Jabok, a od puszczy aż do Jordanu. ²³ Ponieważ tedy Pan, Bóg Izraelski wypędził Amorejczyka przed ludem swym Izraelskim, przecz ty chcesz panować nad nim? ²⁴ Azaż, coć dał posieść Kamos, bóg twój, tego nie posiędziesz? tak, kogo Pan, Bóg nasz, wygnał przed oblicznością naszą, tego też dziedzictwo posiadamy. ²⁵ Do tego czemżeś ty lepszy nad Balaka syna Seferowego, króla Moabskiego? zaż się on kiedy wadził z Izrealem? zaż kiedy walczył przeciwko niemu? ²⁶ Oto przez trzy sta lat mieszkał Izrael w Hesebon, i we wsiach jego, także w Aroer, i we wsiach jego, i we wszystkich miastach, które są przy granicy Arnon; czemużeście ich nie odjęli przez ten czas? ²⁷ A tak nie jam tobie winien, ale ty mnie źle czynisz, że walczysz przeciwko mnie; niech Pan, który jest Sędzią, rozsądzi dziś między syny Izraelskimi i między syny Ammonowymi. ²⁸ Ale nie usłuchał król synów Ammonowych słów Jeftego, które wskazał do niego. ²⁹ I był nad Jeftem duch Pański, a przeszedł przez Galaad, i przez Manase; przeszedł też przez Masfa w Galaad, a z Masfy w Galaad ciągnął przeciw synom Ammonowym. ³⁰ Tamże uczynił Jefte ślub Panu, mówiąc: Jeźli pewnie podasz syny Ammonowe w ręce moje, ³¹ Tedy to, cobykolwiek wyszło ze drzwi domu mego przeciwko mnie, gdy się wrócę w pokoju od synów Ammonowych, to mówię będzie Panu, albo ofiarować je będę na całopalenie. ³² A tak Jefte ciągnął przeciwko synom Ammonowym, aby walczył z nimi, i podał je Pan w ręce jego. ³³ I poraził je od Aroer aż idąc do Menit, dwadzieścia miast, i aż do równiny winnic porażką bardzo wielką, a poniżeni są synowie Ammonowi przed syny Izraelskimi.

Portuguese⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Depois Jefté enviou mensageiros ao rei dos amonitas, para lhe dizerem: Que há entre mim e ti, que vieste a mim para guerrear contra a minha terra? ¹³ Respondeu o rei dos amonitas aos mensageiros de Jefté: É porque Israel, quando subiu do Egipto, tomou a minha terra, desde o Arnom até o Jaboque e o Jordão; restitui-me, pois, agora essas terras em paz. ¹⁴ Jefté, porém, tornou a enviar mensageiros ao rei dos amonitas, ¹⁵ dizendo-lhe: Assim diz Jefté: Israel não tomou a terra de Moab, nem a terra dos amonitas; ¹⁶ mas quando Israel subiu do Egipto, andou pelo deserto até o Mar Vermelho, e depois chegou a Cades; ¹⁷ dali enviou mensageiros ao rei de Edom, a dizer-lhe: Rogo-te que me deixes passar pela tua terra. Mas o rei de Edom não lhe deu ouvidos. Então enviou ao rei de Moab, o qual também não consentiu; e assim Israel ficou em Cades. ¹⁸ Depois andou pelo deserto e rodeou a terra de Edom e a terra de Moab, e veio pelo lado oriental da terra de Moab, e acampou além do Arnom; porém não entrou no território de Moab, pois o Arnom era o limite de Moab. ¹⁹ E Israel enviou mensageiros a Síon, rei dos amorreus, rei de Hesbon, e disse-lhe: Rogo-te que nos deixes passar pela tua terra até o meu lugar. ²⁰ Síon, porém, não se fiou de Israel para o deixar passar pelo seu território; pelo contrário, ajuntando todo o seu povo, acampou em Jaza e combateu contra Israel. ²¹ E o Senhor Deus de Israel entregou Síon com todo o seu povo na mão de Israel, que os feriu e se apoderou de toda a terra dos amorreus que habitavam naquela região. ²² Apoderou-se de todo o território dos amorreus, desde o Arnom até o Jaboque, e desde o deserto até o Jordão. ²³ Assim o Senhor Deus de Israel desapossou os amorreus de diante do seu povo de Israel; e possuirias tu esse território? ²⁴ Não possuirias tu o território daquele que Quemós, teu deus, desapossasse de diante de ti? assim possuiremos nós o território de todos quantos o Senhor nosso Deus desapossar de diante de nós. ²⁵ Agora, és tu melhor do que Balaque, filho de Zipor, rei de Moab? ousou ele jamais contender com Israel, ou lhe mover guerra? ²⁶ Enquanto Israel habitou trezentos anos em Hesbon e nas suas vilas, em Aroer e nas suas vilas em todas as cidades que estão ao longo do Arnom, por que não as recuperaste naquele tempo? ²⁷ Não fui eu que pequei contra ti; és tu, porém, que usas de injustiça para comigo, fazendo-me guerra. O Senhor, que é juiz, julgue hoje entre os filhos de Israel e os amonitas. ²⁸ Contudo o rei dos amonitas não deu ouvidos à mensagem que Jefté lhe enviou. ²⁹ Então o Espírito do Senhor veio sobre Jefté, de modo que ele passou por Guilead e Manassés, e chegando a Mispá de Guilead, dali foi ao encontro dos amonitas. ³⁰ E Jefté fez um voto ao Senhor, dizendo: Se tu me entregares na mão os amonitas, ³¹ qualquer que, saindo da porta de minha casa, me vier ao encontro, quando eu, vitorioso, voltar dos amonitas, esse será do Senhor; eu o oferecerei em holocausto. ³² Assim Jefté foi ao encontro dos amonitas, a combater contra eles; e o Senhor lhos entregou na mão. ³³ E Jefté os feriu com grande mortandade, desde Aroer até chegar a Minite, vinte cidades, e até Abel-Queramim. Assim foram subjugados os amonitas pelos filhos de Israel.

Norwegian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Så sendte Jefta bud til ammonittenes konge og lot si: Hvad vil du mig, siden du kommer til mig og fører krig mot mitt land? ¹³ Da sa ammonittenes konge til Jeftas sendebud: Fordi Israel, da de drog op fra Egypten, tok mitt land like fra Arnon til Jabbok og til Jordan; gi det nu tilbake med det gode! ¹⁴ Men Jefta sendte atter bud til ammonittenes konge ¹⁵ og lot si til ham: Så sier Jefta: Israel har ikke tatt Moabs land eller ammonittenes land. ¹⁶ For da de drog op fra Egypten, vandret Israel i ørkenen til det Røde Hav og kom til Kades. ¹⁷ Da sendte Israel bud til Edoms konge og lot si: La mig få dra gjennem ditt land! Men Edoms konge hørte ikke på dem. Også til Moabs konge sendte de bud; men han vilde heller ikke. Så blev Israel i Kades. ¹⁸ Siden vandret de i ørkenen og drog utenom Edoms land og Moabs land og kom frem østenfor Moabs land og leiret sig på hin side Arnon; men de kom ikke inn i Moabs land, for Arnon er Moabs grense. ¹⁹ Så sendte Israel bud til Sihon, amorittenes konge, kongen i Hesbon, og Israel lot ham si: La oss få dra gjennem ditt land, så vi kan komme dit vi skal! ²⁰ Men Sihon hadde ikke så god tro til Israel at han torde la dem dra gjennem sitt land; han samlet alt sitt folk, og de leiret sig i Jahsa, og han angrep Israel. ²¹ Og Herren, Israels Gud, gav Sihon og alt hans folk i Israels hånd, og de slo dem; og Israel inntok hele det land som tilhørte amorittene, det folk som bodde der; ²² hele amorittenes land inntok de like fra Arnon til Jabbok og fra ørkenen til Jordan. ²³ Så har nu Herren, Israels Gud, drevet amorittene bort for sitt folk Israel; og nu vil du ta dets land i eie? ²⁴ Er det ikke så at hvad din gud Kamos lar dig få, det tar du i eie, og alt hvad Herren vår Gud rydder for oss, det tar vi i eie? ²⁵ Er da du bedre enn Balak, Sippors sønn, Moabs konge? Trettet vel han med Israel eller førte krig mot dem? ²⁶ Nu har Israel bodd tre hundre år i Hesbon og de byer som hører det til, og i Aroer med tilhørende byer og i alle de byer som ligger ved Arnons bredder; hvorfor har I da ikke tatt dem igjen i all denne tid? ²⁷ Jeg har ikke gjort dig noget ondt, men du gjør nu urett mot mig ved å angripe mig; Herren, han som er dommer, han skal dømme idag mellem Israels barn og Ammons barn. ²⁸ Men ammonittenes konge hørte ikke på de ord som Jeftas sendebud bar frem til ham. ²⁹ Da kom Herrens Ånd over Jefta, og han drog gjennem Gilead og Manasse; så drog han frem til Mispa i Gilead; og fra Mispa i Gilead drog han frem mot Ammons barn. ³⁰ Og Jefta gjorde et løfte til Herren og sa: Dersom du gir Ammons barn i min hånd, ³¹ da skal den som går ut av døren til mitt hus og møter mig, når jeg kommer uskadd tilbake fra Ammons barn, da skal den høre Herren til; jeg skal ofre ham til brennoffer. ³² Så drog Jefta frem mot Ammons barn og stred mot dem, og Herren gav dem i hans hånd; ³³ han slo dem og tok fra dem landet fra Aroer til bortimot Minnit, tyve byer, og like til Abel-Keramim; det blev et svært mannefall, og Ammons barn blev ydmyket under Israels barn.

Romanian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Iefta a trimes soli împăratului fiilor lui Amon, ca să -i spună:,,Ce ai cu mine de vii împotriva mea să faci război împotriva ţării mele?`` ¹³ Împăratul fiilor lui Amon a răspuns solilor lui Iefta:,,Pentrucă Israel, cînd s'a suit din Egipt, a pus mîna pe ţara mea, dela Arnon pînă la Iaboc şi Iordan. Dă-mi -o înapoi acum de bună voie.`` ¹⁴ Iefta a trimes iarăş soli împăratului fiilor lui Amon, ¹⁵ ca să -i spună:,,Aşa vorbeşte Iefta.,Israel n'a pus mîna pe ţara Moabului, nici pe ţara fiilor lui Amon. ¹⁶ Căci, cînd s'a suit Israel din Egipt, a mers în pustie pînă la marea Roşie şi a ajuns la Cades. ¹⁷ Atunci Israel a trimes soli împăratului Edomului, ca să -i spună:,Lasă-mă să trec prin ţara ta.` Dar împăratul Edomului n'a voit. A trimes şi la împăratul Moabului, şi nici el n'a vrut. Şi Israel a rămas la Cades. ¹⁸ Apoi a mers prin pustie, a ocolit ţara Edomului şi ţara Moabului, şi a venit la răsăritul ţării Moabului; au tăbărît dincolo de Arnon, fără să intre pe ţinutul Moabului, căci Arnonul era hotarul Moabului. ¹⁹ Israel a trimes soli lui Sihon, împăratul Amoriţilor, împăratul Hesbonului. Şi Israel i -a zis:,Lasă-mă să trec prin ţara ta pînă la locul spre care mergem.` ²⁰ Dar Sihon n'a avut încredere în Israel, ca să -l lase să treacă pe ţinutul lui; şi -a strîns tot poporul, a tăbărît la Iahat, şi a luptat împotriva lui Israel. ²¹ Domnul, Dumnezeul lui Israel, a dat pe Sihon şi pe tot poporul lui în mînile lui Israel, care i -a bătut. Israel a pus mîna pe toată ţara Amoriţilor, cari erau aşezaţi în ţara aceasta. ²² Au pus mîna pe tot ţinutul Amoriţilor, dela Arnon pînă la Iaboc, şi dela pustie pînă la Iordan. ²³ Şi acum, cînd Domnul, Dumnezeul lui Israel, a izgonit pe Amoriţi dinaintea poporului Său Israel, tu să le stăpîneşti ţara? ²⁴ Oare ce-ţi dă în stăpînire dumnezeul tău Chemoş, nu vei stăpîni? Şi tot ce ne -a dat în stăpînire Domnul, Dumnezeul nostru, înaintea noastră, noi să nu stăpînim! ²⁵ Eşti tu mai bun decît Balac, fiul lui Ţipor, împăratul Moabului? S'a certat el cu Israel sau a făcut el război împotriva lui? ²⁶ Iată că sînt trei sute de ani de cînd locuieşte Israel la Hesbon şi în satele din jurul lui, la Aroer şi în satele din jurul lui şi în toate cetăţile cari sînt pe malul Arnonului: pentruce nu i le-aţi luat în tot timpul acesta? ²⁷ Eu nu te-am supărat deloc, şi rău te-ai purtat cu mine, făcîndu-mi război. Domnul să judece lucrul acesta.

Iefta a străbătut Galaadul şi Manase; a trecut la Miţpe în Galaad; şi din Miţpe din Galaad, a pornit împotriva fiilor lui Amon. ³⁰ Iefta a făcut o juruinţă Domnului, şi a zis:,,Dacă vei da în mînile mele pe fiii lui Amon, ³¹ ori cine va ieşi pe porţile casei mele înaintea mea, la întoarcerea mea fericită dela fiii lui Amon, va fi închinat Domnului, şi -l voi aduce ca ardere de tot.`` ³² Iefta a pornit împotriva fiilor lui Amon, şi Domnul i -a dat în mînile lui. ³³ Le -a pricinuit o foarte mare înfrîngere, dela Aroer pînă spre Minit, loc care cuprindea douăzeci de cetăţi, şi pînă la Abel-Cheramim. Şi fiii lui Amon au fost smeriţi înaintea copiilor lui Israel.

Ukrainian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² І послав Їфтах послів до царів Аммонових синів, говорячи: Що тобі до мене, що ти прийшов до мене воювати з моїм краєм? ¹³ І сказав цар Аммонових синів до Їфтахових послів: Бо Ізраїль забрав мій край, коли він виходив з Єгипту, від Арнону й аж до Яббоку та аж до Йордану. А тепер верни ж їх у мирі. ¹⁴ А Їфтах ще послав послів до царя Аммонових синів, ¹⁵ і сказав йому: Так сказав Їфтах: Не взяв Ізраїль краю Моавого та краю Аммонових синів, ¹⁶ бо коли йшли вони з Єгипту, то Ізраїль ішов по пустині аж до Червоного моря, і прийшов до Кадешу. ¹⁷ І послав Ізраїль послів до едомського царя, говорячи: Нехай я перейду твоїм краєм, та не послухав едомський цар. І послав він також до царя моавського, та й той не хотів. І осівся Ізраїль у Кадешу. ¹⁸ І пішов він пустинею, і обійшов край едомський та край моавський, і прийшов зо сходу сонця до моавського краю, та й таборували по тім боці Арнону, а в моавські границі не входили, бо Арнон границя Моава. ¹⁹ І послав Ізраїль послів до Сихона, царя аморейського, царя хешбонського, і сказав йому Ізраїль: Нехай ми перейдемо твоїм краєм аж до місця свого. ²⁰ І не вірив Сихон Ізраїлеві, щоб він мирно перейшов його границями. І зібрав Сихон увесь народ свій, та й таборували в Йохці, і воювали з Ізраїлем. ²¹ І дав Господь, Бог Ізраїля, Сихона та ввесь народ його в Ізраїлеву руку, вони побили їх. І посів Ізраїль увесь край амореянина, мешканця того краю. ²² І вони посіли всю аморейську країну від Арнону й аж до Яббоку, і від пустині та аж до Йордану. ²³ А тепер Господь, Бог Ізраїлів, вигнав Амореянина перед народом Своїм, Ізраїлем, а ти посядеш його? ²⁴ Отож, що дасть тобі на насліддя Кемош, бог твій, те ти посядеш, а все, де вигнав Господь, Бог наш, перед нами, те ми посядемо. ²⁵ А тепер чи справді ти ліпший від Балака, Ціппорового сина, царя моавського? Чи сваритися сварився він з Ізраїлем? Чи воювати воював із ними? ²⁶ Коли Ізраїль сидів у Хешбоні та в підлеглих містах його, і в Ар'орі та в підлеглих містах його, і по всіх містах, що над Арноном, три сотні літ, то чому не відібрали ви їх за той час? ²⁷ А тобі я не згрішив, а ти робиш зо мною зло, щоб воювати зо мною. Нехай розсудить Господь, що судить сьогодні між Ізраїлевими синами та між синами Аммоновими. ²⁸ Та цар Аммонових синів не послухався слів Їфтаха, що до нього посилав. ²⁹ І Дух Господній перебував на Їфтахові, і він перейшов Ґілеад та Манасію, і перейшов ґілеадську Міцпе, а з ґілеадської Міцпе перейшов до Аммонових синів. ³⁰ І обіцяв Їфтах обітницю Господеві й сказав: Якщо справді даси Ти Аммонових синів у мою руку, ³¹ то станеться, виходячий, що вийде з дверей мого дому навпроти мене, коли я вертатимусь з миром від Аммонових синів, то буде він для Господа, і я принесу його в цілопалення. ³² І прийшов Їфтах до Аммонових синів воювати з ними, а Господь дав їх у його руку. ³³ І він побив їх дуже великою поразкою від Ароеру й аж туди, де йти до Мінніту, двадцять міст, і аж до Авел-Кераміму. І впокорилися Аммонові сини перед синами Ізраїлевими.
