< Judges 11 >

1 Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a mighty man of valor. He was the son of a prostitute. Gilead became the father of Jephthah.
Ita, ni Jefte a taga-Galaad ket maysa a natured a mannakigubat, ngem anak isuna ti maysa a balangkantis. Ni Galaad ti amana.
2 Gilead’s wife bore him sons. When his wife’s sons grew up, they drove Jephthah out and said to him, “You will not inherit in our father’s house, for you are the son of another woman.”
Nangipasngay pay ti asawa ni Galaad kadagiti dadduma a putotna a lallaki. Idi dimmakkel dagiti annak a lallaki ti asawana, pinilitda ni Jefte a pumanaw iti balay ket kinunada kenkuana, “Saanka a makatawid iti uray ania manipud iti pamiliatayo. Anaknaka ti sabali a babai.”
3 Then Jephthah fled from his brothers and lived in the land of Tob. Outlaws joined up with Jephthah, and they went out with him.
Pinanawan ngarud ni Jefte dagiti kakabsatna ket nagnaed idiay daga ti Tob. Immay ken nakikaddua kenni Jefte dagiti lallaki a mangsalsalungasing iti linteg ket kimmuyogda kenkuana.
4 After a while, the children of Ammon made war against Israel.
Kalpasan ti sumagmamano nga aldaw, ginubat dagiti tattao ti Ammon ti Israel.
5 When the children of Ammon made war against Israel, the elders of Gilead went to get Jephthah out of the land of Tob.
Idi ginubat dagiti tattao ti Ammon ti Israel, napan dagiti panglakayen iti Galaad tapno pagsublienda ni Jefte manipud iti daga ti Tob.
6 They said to Jephthah, “Come and be our chief, that we may fight with the children of Ammon.”
Kinunada kenkuana, “Umayka ket idauloandakami tapno makirangettayo kadagiti tattao ti Ammon.”
7 Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, “Did not you hate me, and drive me out of my father’s house? Why have you come to me now when you are in distress?”
Kinuna ni Jefte kadagiti mangidadaulo ti Galaad. “Ginuradak ken pinilitdak a pumanaw iti balay ti amak. Apay nga umaykayo kaniak ita nga addaan kayo iti pakarigatan?”
8 The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “Therefore we have turned again to you now, that you may go with us and fight with the children of Ammon. You will be our head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.”
Kinuna dagiti panglakayen ti Galaad kenni Jefte, “Dayta ti makagapu nga umas-asidegkami kenka ita; sumurotka kadakami ket makirangetka kadagiti tattao ti Ammon, ket sikanto ti mangidaulo kadagiti amin nga agnanaed iti Galaad.”
9 Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, “If you bring me home again to fight with the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivers them before me, will I be your head?”
Kinuna ni Jefte kadagiti panglakayen ti Galaad, “No iyawiddak manen tapno makiranget kadagiti tattao ti Ammon, ken no pagballigiennatayo ni Yahweh kadakuada, siakto ti agbalin a mangidadauloyo.”
10 The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “The LORD will be witness between us. Surely we will do what you say.”
Kinuna dagiti panglakayen ti Galaad kenni Jefte, “Ni Yahweh koma ti agbalin a saksi iti nagbaetantayo no saantayo nga aramiden ti imbagatayo!”
11 Then Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and chief over them. Jephthah spoke all his words before the LORD in Mizpah.
Kimmuyog ngarud ni Jefte kadagiti panglakayen ti Galaad, ket pinagbalin dagiti tattao isuna a mangidaulo ken mangituray kadakuada. Idi adda isuna iti sangoanan ni Yahweh idiay Mizpa, inulit ni Jefte dagiti amin nga inkarina.
12 Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, saying, “What do you have to do with me, that you have come to me to fight against my land?”
Kalpasanna, nangibaon ni Jefte kadagiti mensahero a mapan iti ari dagiti tattao ti Ammon, a kunana, “Ania daytoy a saan a pagkikinnaawatan iti nagbabaetantayo? Apay nga umayyo piliten nga alaen ti dagami?”
13 The king of the children of Ammon answered 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 that territory again peaceably.”
Insungbat ti ari dagiti tattao ti Ammon kadagiti mensahero ni Jefte, “Gapu ta idi rimmuar ti Israel iti Egipto, inagawda ti dagak manipud iti Arnon agingga iti Jabbok, agingga iti ballasiw ti Jordan. Ita, isubliyo a sikakapia dagidiay a daga.
14 Jephthah sent messengers again to the king of the children of Ammon;
Nangibaon manen ni Jefte kadagiti mensahero a mapan iti Ari dagiti tattao ti Ammon,
15 and he said to him, “Jephthah says: Israel did not take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon;
ket kinunana, “Kastoy ti ibagbaga ni Jefte: saan nga inagaw ti Israel ti daga ti Moab ken ti daga dagiti tattao ti Ammon,
16 but when they came up from Egypt, and Israel went through the wilderness to the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh,
ngem idi rimmuar ti Israel manipud Egipto, limmasatda iti let-ang agingga iti baybay dagiti Runo ken agingga iti Kades.
17 then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, ‘Please let me pass through your land;’ but the king of Edom did not listen. In the same way, he sent to the king of Moab, but he refused; so Israel stayed in Kadesh.
Nangibaon ti Israel kadagiti mensahero a mapan iti Ari ti Edom, a kunana, 'Pangngaasim ta palubosandakami a lumabas iti dagam,' ngem saan a dimngeg ti ari ti Edom. Nangibaonda pay kadagiti mensahero a mangibaga iti Ari ti Moab, ngem nagkedked isuna. Isu a nagtalinaed ti Israel idiay Kades.
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.
Kalpasanna, limmasatda iti let-ang ket nanglikawda manipud iti daga ti Edom ken iti daga ti Moab, ken naglayunda iti akindaya a paset ti daga ti Moab ket nagkampoda iti ballasiw ti Arnon. Ngem saanda a simrek iti masakupan ti Moab, ta ti Arnon ti beddeng ti Moab.
19 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.’
Nangibaon ti Israel kadagiti mensahero a mapan kenni Sihon, nga ari dagiti Amorreo, a mangiturturay iti Hesbon: kinuna ti Israel kenkuana, 'Pangngaasim, palubosandakami a lumabas iti dagam a mapan iti daga a kukuami.'
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.
Ngem saan a nagtalek ni Sihon iti Israel a lumabas iti masakupanna. Inummong ngarud ni Sihon dagiti amin nga armadana ket nagturongda iti Jaaz, ket sadiay a nakiranget isuna iti Israel.
21 The LORD, 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, the inhabitants of that country.
Ket ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, pinagballigina ti Israel maibusor kenni Sihon ken pinaiturayanna kadakuada dagiti amin a tattaona. Isu a tinagikua ti Israel dagiti amin a daga dagiti Amorreo, nga agnanaed iti dayta a pagilian.
22 They possessed all the border of the Amorites, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and from the wilderness even to the Jordan.
Tinagikuada amin a banag nga adda iti masakupan dagiti Amorreo, manipud Arnon agingga iti Jabbok ken manipud iti let-ang agingga iti Karayan Jordan.
23 So now the LORD, the God of Israel, has dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and should you possess them?
Isu a ni Yahweh ngarud a Dios ti Israel ti nangpapanaw kadagiti Amorreo iti sangoanan dagiti tattaona nga Israel, ken rumbeng aya a tagikuaem ita ti dagada?
24 Will not you possess that which Chemosh your god gives you to possess? So whoever the LORD our God has dispossessed from before us, them will we possess.
Saanmo kadi a tagikuaen ti daga nga inted kenka ni Kemos a diosmo? Ket aniaman a daga nga inted kadakami ni Yahweh a Diosmi ket tagikuaenmi.
25 Now are you anything better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them?
Pudno kadi a nalalaingka ita ngem ni Balak nga anak ni Sefor nga ari ti Moab? Naituredna kadi ti nakisinnupiat iti Israel? Nakigubat kadi isuna kadakuada?
26 Israel lived in Heshbon and its towns, and in Aroer and its towns, and in all the cities that are along the side of the Arnon for three hundred years! Why did not you recover them within that time?
Kabayatan ti tallogasut a tawen a panagnaed ti Israel idiay Hesbon ken kadagiti barriona daytoy, idiay Aroer ken kadagiti barriona daytoy, ken kadagiti amin a siudad nga asideg iti igid ti Arnon-apay ngarud a saanmo a binabawi dagitoy kabayatan dayta a tiempo?
27 Therefore I have not sinned against you, but you do me wrong to war against me. May the LORD the Judge be judge today between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon.”
Awan ti naaramidko a saan a nasayaat kenka, ngem pagar-aramidannak iti saan a nasayaat babaen iti panangrarautmo kaniak. Ni Yahweh nga ukom ti mangikeddeng ita nga aldaw iti nagbaetan dagiti tattao ti Israel ken dagiti tattao ti Ammon.”
28 However, the king of the children of Ammon did not listen to the words of Jephthah which he sent him.
Ngem saan nga inkankano ti ari dagiti tattao ti Ammon ti ballaag nga impatulod ni Jefte kenkuana.
29 Then the LORD’s Spirit came on Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpah of Gilead, and from Mizpah of Gilead he passed over to the children of Ammon.
Kalpasanna, immay ti Espiritu ni Yahweh kenni Jefte, ket limmasat isuna iti Galaad ken Manases, ken limmasat isuna iti Mizpa iti Galaad, ken manipud iti Mizpa iti Galaad ket limmasat isuna kadagiti tattao ti Ammon.
30 Jephthah vowed a vow to the LORD, and said, “If you will indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand,
Nagsapata ni Jefte kenni Yahweh ket kinunana, “No pagballigiennak maibusor kadagiti tattao ti Ammon
31 then it shall be, that whatever comes out 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.”
ket kukuanto ni Yahweh ti siasinoman a rummuar kadagiti ridaw ti balayko a sumabat kaniak inton agsubliak a sikakapia nga aggapu kadagiti tattao ti Ammon, ket idatonkonto daytoy a kas daton a maipuor amin.”
32 So Jephthah passed over to the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hand.
Limmasat ngarud ni Jefte kadagiti tattao ti Ammon tapno makiranget kadakuada, ket pinagballigi ni Yahweh isuna.
33 He struck them from Aroer until you come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and to Abelcheramim, with a very great slaughter. So the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.
Rinautna ida ket adu unay ti napapatay manipud Aroer agingga iti Minnit-duapulo a siudad-ken agingga iti Abel Kerarim. Inturayan ngarud dagiti tattao ti Israel dagiti tattao ti Ammon.
34 Jephthah came to Mizpah to his house; and behold, his daughter came out to meet him with tambourines and with dances. She was his only child. Besides her he had neither son nor daughter.
Nagawid ni Jefte iti pagtaenganna idiay Mizpa, ket rimmuar sadiay ti putotna a babai nga agtuktukar iti pandereta ken agsalsala a sumabat kenkuana. Isuna laeng ti kakaisuna a putotna, malaksid kenkuana, awanen iti putotna a lalaki wenno babai.
35 When he saw her, he tore his clothes, and said, “Alas, my daughter! You have brought me very low, and you are one of those who trouble me; for I have opened my mouth to the LORD, and I cannot go back.”
Apaman a nakitana ti anakna, rinay-abna ti pagan-anayna ket kinunana, “O! Anakko! Rinumeknak babaen iti ladingit, ket sika ti pakaigappuan ti pannakapasakitko! Ta nagsapataak kenni Yahweh, ket saankon a maibabawi ti inkarik.”
36 She said to him, “My father, you have opened your mouth to the LORD; do to me according to that which has proceeded out of your mouth, because the LORD has taken vengeance for you on your enemies, even on the children of Ammon.”
Kinunana kenkuana, “Amak, nagsapataka kenni Yahweh, aramidem kaniak ti amin nga inkarim, gapu ta ni Yahweh ti nangibales para kenka kadagiti kabusormo nga Ammonita.”
37 Then she said to her father, “Let this thing be done for me. Leave me alone two months, that I may depart and go down on the mountains, and bewail my virginity, I and my companions.”
Kinunana iti amana, “Matungpal koma daytoy a kari kaniak.” Panawannak nga agmamaysa iti dua a bulan, tapno makapanawak ken sumalog iti katurturodan ket pagladingitak ti kinabirhenko, siak ken dagiti kakaduak.”
38 He said, “Go.” He sent her away for two months; and she departed, she and her companions, and mourned her virginity on the mountains.
Kinunana, “Mapanka.” Imbaonna ti anakna nga umadayo iti dua a bulan. Pinanawanna ti amana, kakuyogna dagiti kakaduana, ket nagladingitda iti kinabirhenna idiay katurturodan.
39 At the end of two months, she returned to her father, who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed. She was a virgin. It became a custom in Israel
Iti panagleppas iti dua a bulan, nagsubli isuna iti amana a mangaramid kenkuana sigun iti insapatana. Ita, saanna a pulos napadasan ti nakikaidda iti maysa a lalaki, ket nagbalin daytoy a kaugalian idiay Israel
40 that the daughters of Israel went yearly to celebrate the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in a year.
iti uneg ti uppat nga aldaw iti tunggal tawen, istoriaen dagiti annak ti Israel ti maipanggep iti putot a babai ni Jefte a taga-Galaad.
