1 Hiche jouchun Ephraim mipihon asepaiteu achom khommun Jordan vadung apal galkaijun Zaphon geijin acheuvin Jepthah kommah thupo leho thu athotnun hitin aseijun ahi, “Ammon mitetoh kisat dinga nakon uva chu ipi dinga neihin koulou uham? Nanghi na intoh kahallhah thading nahi” atiuvin ahi.

And the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward. And they said to Jephthah, Why did thou pass over to fight against the sons of Ammon, and did not call us to go with thee? We will burn thy house upon thee with fire.

2 Jepthah in amaho chu adonbut in, “Boina ahung kipat chun nangho kahin kouve, ahinla nangho nahung pouvin ahi!

And Jephthah said to them, I and my people were at great strife with the sons of Ammon, and when I called you, ye did not save me out of their hand.

3 Hitiahi nangho nahung nomlou kahetdoh phatnin, hinkho phalngam in nangho pang louvin galmunna hin kachen Pakaiyin Ammon mite chunga hin galjona eipetan ahi. Ahile tuahi ipi dinga keima to kisat dinga nahung jenguham?” atin ahi.

And when I saw that ye did not save me, I put my life in my hand, and passed opposite the sons of Ammon, and Jehovah delivered them into my hand. Why then have ye come up to me this day, to fight against me?

4 Nangho Gilead mitehi imacha hilou Ephraim le Manesseh a konna jamdoh ho maimai nahilouvu ham?” atiuve. Hijouchun Jepthah in Gilead mite jouse chu aloikhom’in Ephraim mite chu akisatpin ajoutan ahi.

Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim. And the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye are fugitives of Ephraim, ye Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim, and in the midst of Manasseh.

5 Jepthah in Jordan vadung palmun chu alokhum’in Ephraim’a konna jamdoh khattou chu akinungle a hiche munhi ahinpal gotleh Gilead mihochun “Ephraim phungmi nahim?” tin adong jiuvin, kahipoi atiuleh,

And the Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. And it was so, that, when any of the fugitives of Ephraim said, Let me go over, the men of Gilead said to him, Are thou an Ephraimite? If he said, No,

6 Amahon “Shebboleth” ti-in atiuvin, amachu Ephraim mi ahileh “Shebboleth’’ atidiu ahi, ajeh chu Ephraim miten hiche thucheng hi adih a aseitheiji louvu ahi. Hiteng chuleh amahon apuidoh uva Jordan kaimun’a chu athajiu ahi. Hiche phat laichun Ephraim techu sangsomli le ni ana thatnun ahi.

then they said to him, Say now Shibboleth, and he said Sibboleth, for he could not frame to pronounce it right, then they laid hold on him, and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. And there fell at that time of Ephraim forty-two thousand.
