< Judges 11 >
1 Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a mighty man of valor; he was the son of a prostitute, and Gilead was his father.
Ita, ni Jefte a taga-Galaad ket maysa a natured a mannakigubat, ngem anak isuna ti maysa a balangkantis. Ni Galaad ti amana.
2 And Gilead’s wife bore him sons who grew up, drove Jephthah out, and said to him, “You shall have no inheritance in our father’s house, because 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 So Jephthah fled from his brothers and settled in the land of Tob, where worthless men gathered around him and traveled 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 Some time later, when the Ammonites fought against Israel
Kalpasan ti sumagmamano nga aldaw, ginubat dagiti tattao ti Ammon ti Israel.
5 and made war with them, the elders of Gilead went to get Jephthah from 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 “Come,” they said, “be our commander, so that we can fight against the Ammonites.”
Kinunada kenkuana, “Umayka ket idauloandakami tapno makirangettayo kadagiti tattao ti Ammon.”
7 Jephthah replied to the elders of Gilead, “Did you not hate me and expel me from my father’s house? Why then 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 They answered Jephthah, “This is why we now turn to you, that you may go with us, fight the Ammonites, and become leader over all of us who live in 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 But Jephthah asked them, “If you take me back to fight the Ammonites and the LORD gives them to me, will I really be your leader?”
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 And the elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “The LORD is our witness if we do not do as 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 So Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him their leader and commander. And Jephthah repeated all his terms in the presence of the LORD at 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 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?”
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 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.”
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 again sent messengers to the king of the Ammonites
Nangibaon manen ni Jefte kadagiti mensahero a mapan iti Ari dagiti tattao ti Ammon,
15 to tell him, “This is what Jephthah says: Israel did not take away the land of Moab or of the Ammonites.
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 Israel came up out of Egypt, they traveled 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 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.
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 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.
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 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.’
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 would not trust Israel to pass through his territory. So he gathered all his people, encamped in Jahaz, and fought with 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 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,
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 seizing all the land from the Arnon to the Jabbok and from the wilderness 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 Now since the LORD, the God of Israel, has driven out the Amorites from before His people Israel, should you now possess it?
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 Do you not possess whatever your god Chemosh grants you? So also, we possess whatever the LORD our God has granted us.
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 Are you now so much better than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever contend with Israel or 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 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?
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 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.”
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 But the king of the Ammonites paid no heed to the message Jephthah sent him.
Ngem saan nga inkankano ti ari dagiti tattao ti Ammon ti ballaag nga impatulod ni Jefte kenkuana.
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.
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 made this vow to the LORD: “If indeed You will deliver the Ammonites into my hand,
Nagsapata ni Jefte kenni Yahweh ket kinunana, “No pagballigiennak maibusor kadagiti tattao ti Ammon
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.”
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 crossed over to the Ammonites 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 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.
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 And when Jephthah returned home to Mizpah, there was his daughter coming out to meet him with tambourines and dancing! She was his only child; he had no son or daughter besides her.
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 As soon as Jephthah saw her, he tore his clothes and said, “No! Not my daughter! You have brought me to my knees! You have brought great misery upon me, for I have given my word to the LORD and cannot take it 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 “My father,” she replied, “you have given your word to the LORD. Do to me as you have said, for the LORD has avenged you of your enemies, the Ammonites.”
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 She also said to her father, “Let me do this one thing: Let me wander for two months through the mountains with my friends and mourn my virginity.”
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 “Go,” he said. And he sent her away for two months. So she left with her friends and mourned her virginity upon 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 After two months, she returned to her father, and he did to her as he had vowed. And she had never had relations with a man. So it has become 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 each year the young women of Israel go out for four days to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite.
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.
