Judges 12
1 The men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward; and they said to Jephthah, “Why did you pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and did not call us to go with you? We will burn your house around you with fire!”
Namoonni Efreem walitti qabamanii Daafoon ceʼuudhaan Yiftaan, “Ati yeroo Amoonota loluuf baatetti maaliif akka nu si faana deemnuuf nu hin waamne? Nu mana kee sirratti gubna” jedhaniin.
2 Jephthah said to them, “I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, you did not save me out of their hand.
Yiftaanis akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Anii fi namoonni koo Amoonota loluuf waraana guddaa keessa gallee turre; yommuu ani isin waametti isin harka isaaniitii na hin baafne.
3 When I saw that you did not save me, I put my life in my hand, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand. Why then have you come up to me today, to fight against me?”
Ani yeroo akka isin na hin baafne argetti lubbuu kootti muree Amoonota waraanuuf nan ceʼe; Waaqayyos isaan irratti moʼannaa naa kenne. Yoos isin harʼa maaliif na loluuf dhuftan ree?”
4 Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim. The men of Gilead struck Ephraim, because they said, “You are fugitives of Ephraim, you Gileadites, in the middle of Ephraim, and in the middle of Manasseh.”
Yiftaanis ergasii namoota Giliʼaad walitti waammatee Efreemitti lola kaase. Sababii namoonni Efreem warra Giliʼaadiin, “Isin Giliʼaadonni warra Efreemii fi Minaasee gantanii dha” jedhaniif Giliʼaadonni isaan dhaʼan.
5 The Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. Whenever a fugitive of Ephraim said, “Let me go over,” the men of Gilead said to him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” If he said, “No;”
Giliʼaadonni malkaawwan Yordaanos kanneen gara Efraataatti geessan qabatan; yeroo baqataan Efraataa tokko, “Ani gamattin ceʼa” jedhutti, namoonni Giliʼaad, “Ati nama Efreem mitii?” jedhanii isa gaafatu. Yoo inni, “Waawuu” jedhee deebise,
6 then they said to him, “Now say ‘Shibboleth;’” and he said “Sibboleth”; for he could not manage to pronounce it correctly, then they seized him and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. At that time, forty-two thousand of Ephraim fell.
isaan, “Gaarii dha; ati, ‘Shiiboleeti’ jedhi” jedhaniin. Yoo inni, “Siiboleeti” jedhe, sababii inni qajeelatti “Shiiboleeti” jechuu hin dandeenyeef qabanii malkaawwan Yordaanos irratti isa ajjeesu. Yeroo sanatti namoota Efreem kuma afurtamii lamatu ajjeefame.
7 Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in the cities of Gilead.
Yiftaan waggaa jaʼa Israaʼelin bulche. Ergasii Yiftaan namni Giliʼaad sun duʼee magaalaa Giliʼaad keessaa tokkotti awwaalame.
8 After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.
Isaan duubas Ibzaan namichi Beetlihem sun Israaʼelin bulche.
9 He had thirty sons. He sent his thirty daughters outside his clan, and he brought in thirty daughters from outside his clan for his sons. He judged Israel seven years.
Innis ilmaan soddomaa fi intallan soddoma qaba ture; intallan isaas warra gosa isaa hin taʼinitti heerumsiise; ilmaan isaatiifis akka isaan niitota taʼaniif gosa biraa keessaa durboota soddoma fide. Ibxaan waggaa torba Israaʼel bulche.
10 Ibzan died, and was buried at Bethlehem.
Ibzaanis duʼee Beetlihem keessatti awwaalame.
11 After him, Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.
Isa booddee Eeloon namichi gosa Zebuuloon sun waggaa kudhan Israaʼelin bulche.

Eeloonis duʼee biyya Zebuuloon keessatti Ayaaloonitti awwaalame.
13 After him, Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.
Isatti aanee immoo Abdoon ilmi Hileel namichi Phiraatoon sun Israaʼelin bulche.
14 He had forty sons and thirty sons’ sons who rode on seventy donkey colts. He judged Israel eight years.
Innis ilmaan afurtamaa fi ilmaan ilmaanii soddoma kanneen harroota torbaatama yaabbatan qaba ture. Inni waggaa saddeeti Israaʼelin bulche.
15 Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.
Ergasiis Abdoon ilmi Hileel duʼee biyya gaaraa Amaaleqootaatti Efreem keessatti Phiraatoonitti awwaalame.
