< Judges 12 >

1 And the men of Ephraim were called together, and passed over northward, —and said unto Jephthah—Wherefore didst thou pass over to do battle with the sons of Ammon, and, for us, didst not call, to go with thee? Thy house, will we consume over thee with fire.
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 And Jephthah said unto them, Great strife, had, I and my people, even with the sons of Ammon; but, when I cried unto you for help, ye saved me not out of their hand.
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 So, when I saw that thou wast not going to save, then put I my life in my hand, and passed over against the sons of Ammon, and Yahweh delivered them into my hand. Wherefore, then, have ye come up against me this day, to fight against 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 And Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim, —and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said—Fugitives of Ephraim, are, ye, O ye Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim, in the midst of 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 And the Gileadites captured the fords of the Jordan, against the Ephraimites, —and so it was, that, when the fugitives of Ephraim said, Let me pass over, the men of Gilead said to him, An Ephraimite, art thou? and, if he said—Nay!
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 said to him, Come now, say Shibboleth, and, if he said Sibboleth, and he could not take heed to speak in that manner, then laid they hold on him, and slew him at the fords of the Jordan, —and there fell, at that time, of the Ephraimites, forty-two thousand.
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 And, when Jephthah had judged Israel six years, then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in [one of] the cities of Gilead.
Jefta ṣe ìdájọ́ Israẹli ní ọdún mẹ́fà. Lẹ́yìn náà Jefta ará Gileadi kú, wọ́n sì sin ín sí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ìlú Gileadi.
8 And there judged Israel, after him, Ibzan of Bethlehem.
Lẹ́yìn Jefta, Ibsani ará Bẹtilẹhẹmu ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.
9 And so it was, he had thirty sons, and, thirty daughters, sent he abroad, while, thirty daughters, brought he from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.
Ó ní ọgbọ̀n ọmọkùnrin àti ọgbọ̀n ọmọbìnrin fún àwọn tí kì í ṣe ẹ̀yà rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìyàwó, ó sì fẹ́ ọgbọ̀n àwọn ọmọbìnrin fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ ọkùnrin lára àwọn tí kì í ṣe ẹ̀yà rẹ̀. Ibsani ṣe ìdájọ́ Israẹli fún ọdún méje.
10 And Ibzan died, and was buried in Bethlehem.
Lẹ́yìn náà ni Ibsani kú, wọ́n sì sin ín sí Bẹtilẹhẹmu.
11 And, after him, did Elon the Zebulunite judge Israel, —and he judged Israel, ten years.
Lẹ́yìn rẹ̀, Eloni ti ẹ̀yà Sebuluni ṣe àkóso Israẹli fún ọdún mẹ́wàá.
12 And Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon, in the land of Zebulun.
Eloni sì kú, wọ́n sì sin ín sí Aijaloni ní ilẹ̀ Sebuluni.
13 And there judged Israel, after him, Abdon son of Hillel, the Pirathonite.
Lẹ́yìn rẹ̀ ni Abdoni ọmọ Hileli tí Piratoni n ṣe àkóso Israẹli.
14 And so it was, he had forty sons and thirty grandsons, who rode on seventy ass colts, —and he judged Israel eight years.
Òun ní ogójì ọmọkùnrin àti ọgbọ̀n ọmọ ọmọ àwọn tí ó ń gun àádọ́rin kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́. Ó ṣe ìdájọ́ Israẹli ní ọdún mẹ́jọ.
15 And Abdon son of Hillel, the Pirathonite died, —and was buried in Pirathon, in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.
Abdoni ọmọ Hileli sì kú, wọ́n sin ín sí Piratoni ní ilé Efraimu ní ìlú òkè àwọn ará Amaleki.
