Judges 12
1 And the me of Ephraim gathered themselues together, and went Northwarde, and saide vnto Iphtah, Wherefore wentest thou to fight against the children of Ammon, and diddest not call vs to goe with thee? we will therefore burne thine house vpon thee with fire.
厄弗辣因人集合起來，過河到了匝豐，對依弗大說：「當你去攻打阿孟子民時，為什麼沒有召我們與你同去﹖我們要用火把你的房屋同你一起燒掉。」
2 And Iphtah said vnto them, I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon, and when I called you, ye deliuered me not out of their handes.
依弗大回來他們說：「我與我的人民同阿孟子民激戰的時候，我曾向你們求救，但你們沒有來救我們脫離他們的手。
3 So when I sawe that ye deliuered me not, I put my life in mine hands, and went vpon the children of Ammon: so the Lord deliuered them into mine handes. Wherefore then are ye come vpon me nowe to fight against me?
我見你們沒人來援助，我就拼命猛攻阿孟子民，上主遂將他們交在我手中；那麼，你們為什麼今天上來攻擊我﹖」
4 Then Iphtah gathered all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim: and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye Gileadites are runnagates of Ephraim among the Ephraimites, and among the Manassites.
於是依弗大召集基肋阿得所有的人同厄弗辣因作戰；基肋阿得人擊潰了厄弗辣因人。﹝因為厄弗辣因人曾說過：你基肋阿得人是從厄弗辣因跑出來的，散居在厄弗辣因人中，在默納協人中。﹞
5 Also the Gileadites tooke the passages of Iorden before the Ephraimites, and when the Ephraimites that were escaped, saide, Let me passe, then the men of Gilead said vnto him, Art thou an Ephraimite? If he said, Nay,
基肋阿得人為了反擊厄弗辣因人，先佔據了約但河渡口；逃跑的厄弗辣因人說：「容我過去罷! 」基肋阿得人就問：「你是厄弗辣因人嗎﹖」如果說：「不是。」
6 Then said they vnto him, Say nowe Shibboleth: and he said, Sibboleth: for he could not so pronounce: then they tooke him, and slewe him at the passages of Iorden: and there fel at that time of the Ephraimites two and fourtie thousand.
基肋阿得人就對他說：「你說『史波肋特! 』」如果他不能照樣說出，而說成「新波肋特，」就捉住他，在約但渡口殺了；在這種情形下，厄弗辣因人就死了四萬二千。
7 And Iphtah iudged Israel sixe yeere: then dyed Iphtah the Gileadite, and was buryed in one of the cities of Gilead.
依弗大作以色列的民長共計六年；以後基肋阿得人依弗大死了，埋葬在基肋阿得本城。依貝贊民長
8 After him Ibzan of Beth-lehem iudged Israel,
在他以後，有貝特肋恒人依貝贊作以色列民長。

10 Then Ibzan died, and was buryed at Bethlehem.

11 And after him iudged Israel Elon, a Zebulonite, and he iudged Israel tenne yeere.

12 Then Elon the Zebulonite dyed, and was buryed in Aijalon in the countrey of Zebulun.

13 And after him Abdon the sonne of Hillel the Pirathonite iudged Israel.
在他以後，有丕辣通人希肋耳的兒子阿貝冬作以色列民長。
14 And he had fourty sonnes and thirtie nephewes that rode on seuentie assecoltes: and he iudged Israel eight yeeres.
