< Judges 12 >
1 Then the Ephraimites were called up and crossed the Jordan to Zaphon. They said to Jephthah, “Why did you go and fight the Ammonites without summoning us to go with you? We're going to burn your house down with you inside it!”
Àwọn ọkùnrin Efraimu pe àwọn ológun wọn jáde, wọ́n sì rékọjá sí ìhà àríwá, wọ́n sì bi Jefta pé, “Èéṣe tí o fi lọ bá àwọn ará Ammoni jagun láì ké sí wa láti bá ọ lọ? Àwa yóò sun ilé rẹ mọ́ ọ lórí.”
2 “I was a man with a great fight on my hands,” Jephthah replied. “I and my people were fighting the Ammonites. When I called on you for help, you didn't come and help save me from them.
Jefta dáhùn pé, “Èmi àti àwọn ènìyàn ní ìyọnu ńlá pẹ̀lú àwọn ará Ammoni, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé mo pè yín, ẹ̀yin kò gbà mí sílẹ̀ ní ọwọ́ wọn.
3 When I realized that you weren't going to help, I took my life in my hands and went to fight the Ammonites, and the Lord made me victorious over them. So why have you come here today to attack me?”
Nígbà tí mo rí i pé ẹ̀yin kò gbà mí, mo fi ẹ̀mí mi wéwu. Mó sì gòkè lọ láti bá àwọn ará Ammoni jà, Olúwa sì fún mi ní ìṣẹ́gun lórí wọn, èéṣe báyìí tí ẹ fi dìde wá lónìí láti bá mi jà?”
4 Jephthah summoned all of the men of Gilead and fought against the Ephraimites. The men of Gilead killed them because the Ephraimites taunted them, saying, “You Gileadites are nothing more than escapees living among Ephraim and Manasseh.”
Nígbà náà ni Jefta kó gbogbo ọkùnrin Gileadi jọ, ó sì bá Efraimu jà. Àwọn ọkùnrin Gileadi sì kọlù Efraimu, nítorí wọ́n ti sọtẹ́lẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ̀yin ará Gileadi jẹ́ àsáwọ̀ àwọn ará Efraimu àti ti Manase.”
5 The Gileadites took control of the fords over the Jordan River that led to Ephraim's territory, and when an Ephraimite escapee from the battle would come and ask, “Let me cross over,” the Gileadites would question him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” If he answered, “No,”
Àwọn ará Gileadi gba à bá wọ odò Jordani tí wọ́n máa gbà lọ sí Efraimu, nígbàkígbà tí àwọn ará Efraimu bá wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí ń sálọ sí òkè,” lọ́hùn ún àwọn ará Gileadi yóò bi í pé, “Ṣé ará Efraimu ni ìwọ ń ṣe?” Tí ó bá wí pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́,”
6 they would tell him, “Say Shibboleth.” If he was from Ephraim he would say “Sibboleth” because he couldn't pronounce it right, and they'd grab him and kill him there at the Jordan fords. A total of 42,000 were killed at that time.
wọ́n ó wí fún un pé, “Ó dá à wí pé ‘Ṣibolẹti.’” Tí ó bá ní, “Sibolẹti,” torí pé kò ní mọ̀ ọ́n pé dáradára, wọ́n á mú un wọn, a sì pa á ni à bá wọ odò Jordani. Àwọn ará Efraimu tí wọn pa ní àkókò yìí jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún méjìlélógójì ọkùnrin.
7 Jephthah led Israel as judge for six years. Then he died and was buried in one of Gilead's towns.
Jefta ṣe ìdájọ́ Israẹli ní ọdún mẹ́fà. Lẹ́yìn náà Jefta ará Gileadi kú, wọ́n sì sin ín sí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ìlú Gileadi.
8 After Jephthah, Ibzan of Bethlehem led Israel as a judge.
Lẹ́yìn Jefta, Ibsani ará Bẹtilẹhẹmu ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.
9 He had thirty sons and thirty daughters. He married off his daughters to men of other tribes, and he brought in thirty wives from other tribes to marry his sons. Ibzan led Israel as judge for seven years.

10 Then Ibzan died and was buried in Bethlehem.

11 After him, Elon the Zebulunite led Israel as judge for ten years.
Lẹ́yìn rẹ̀, Eloni ti ẹ̀yà Sebuluni ṣe àkóso Israẹli fún ọdún mẹ́wàá.
12 Then he died and was buried at Aijalon in the territory of Zebulun.
Eloni sì kú, wọ́n sì sin ín sí Aijaloni ní ilẹ̀ Sebuluni.
13 After him, Abdon, son of Hillel, from Pirathon, led Israel as judge.
Lẹ́yìn rẹ̀ ni Abdoni ọmọ Hileli tí Piratoni n ṣe àkóso Israẹli.
14 He had forty sons and thirty grandsons, who rode seventy donkeys. He led Israel as judge for eight years.

15 Then he died and was buried at Pirathon in the territory of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.
