Judges 12
1 The men of the tribe of Ephraim summoned their soldiers, and they crossed [the Jordan River] to [the town of] Zaphon [to talk with] Jephthah. They said to him, “(Why did you not ask us for help?/You should have requested us) to help your army fight the Ammon people-group. So we will burn down your house while you are in it.”
Hagi Efraemi vahe'mo'za sondia vahe'zmia nezmavre'za Jodani tina takahe'za Safoni nevu'za amanage hu'za Jeptantega kea atrageno vu'ne. Jodani tima takahenka Amoni vahe'ma hahuzmante'naku'ma nevunka, nahigenka kea hanketa kagra'enena vuta hara ome osu'none? Hagi e'inama hu'naku menina nonka'ane kagri'enena teve taginteta huvazisunkenka tasagegahane.
2 Jephthah replied, “The Ammon people-group were oppressing us greatly. When we were prepared to start to attack them, I requested you to come and help us, but you refused. My men and I defeated the Ammon people-group, but you did not help us.
Anagema hazageno'a Jepta'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Amoni vahe'mo'zama tazeri havizama nehazageta hazenkefima mani'neta eme taza hihoma hunketa, tamagra eta Amoni vahe'mokizmi zamazampintira eme tagura ovazi'naze.
3 When I saw that you would not help us, I was willing to be killed in the battle against the Ammon people-group. But Yahweh helped us to defeat them. [You did not help us when we requested it before], so (why have you come here today to fight against me?/you should not have come here today to fight against me.)” [RHQ]
Anagema nehu'nama koama tamagrama etama eme tazama osnazazama hazageta, tagra tavufa eri amanezaseta Amoni vahe'enena hara nehunkeno, Ra Anumzamo'a taza higeta zamahe vagare'none. Hagi nagafare marerita hara eme hurantekea nehaze?
4 Then Jephthah summoned the men of [the] Gilead [region] to fight [against the men of the tribe of] Ephraim. The men of the tribe of Ephraim said, “You men from [the] Gilead [region] are men who deserted us. Long ago you left us and moved to the area between our tribe and the tribe of Manasseh.” [Because of their saying that], the men of [the] Gilead [region] attacked the men of the tribe of Ephraim.
Anagema hige'za Efraemi naga'mo'za amanage hu'naze, Tamagra Giliati vahera Efraemi nagapinti'ene Manase nagapinti tagrira tatretma fre'naza vahe mani'naze. Anagema hazageno'a, Jepta'a maka vahe'a zamavareno Efraemi nagara hara eme huzamanteno zamahe vagare'ne.
5 The men of Gilead captured that (ford/place where people can walk across) at the Jordan [River] to go to the land where the tribe of Ephraim live. Whenever one of the soldiers from the tribe of Ephraim came to the ford to try to escape, he would say, “Let me cross the river.” Then the men of Gilead would ask him, “Are you from the tribe of Ephraim?” If he said “No,”
Hagi Giliati vahe'mo'za Jodani tima takamahe'zama nevazare kva hu'za mani'ne'za, ana tima takahe'zama vaza vahera zamantahige'za, tamagra Efraemi vahero, hazageno'ma i'oma hia vahera,
6 they would say to him, “Say the word ‘Shibboleth’.” The men of Ephraim could not pronounce that word correctly. So if the person from the tribe of Ephraim said ‘Sibboleth’, [they would know that he was lying and that he was really from the tribe of Ephraim, and] they would kill him there at the ford. So the men of Gilead killed 42,000 people from the tribe of Ephraim at that time.
sihibolet hunka huo higeno'ma, sibolet huno'ma huhavizama hia vahera azeri'za akafri'naze. Na'ankure Efraemi vahe zamanankemo'a ruzahu hu'ne. E'ina hu'za 42 tauseni'a Efraemi vahera zamahe'naze.
7 Jephthah, the man from [the] Gilead [region], was a leader of the Israeli people for six years. Then he died and was buried in a town in [the] Gilead [region].
Hagi Jepta'a 6si'a kafufi Israeli vahera kegava huzmanteno mani'neno, keaga refko hu'ne. Hagi Jepta'ma frige'za Giliati mopafi asente'naze.
8 After Jephthah died, a man named Ibzan, from Bethlehem, became the leader of the Israeli people.
Hagi Jepta'ma frigeno'a Betlehemuti ne' Ipsan Israeli vahera kegava huzmanteno mani'neno keaga refko huzmante'ne.
9 He had 30 sons and 30 daughters. He forced all his daughters to marry men who were not in his clan, and brought women from outside his clan to marry his sons. He was the leader of the Israeli people for seven years.
Hagi agra 30'a ne' mofavre zamanteno, 30'a mofane zamante'ne. Hagi ana maka mofane'a ru naga nofipi masinezmanteno, ne' mofavrearamintera ru naga nofipintike ara hagezamine. Hagi Ipsani'a 7ni'a kafufi Israeli vahera kegava huzmanteno mani'neno, keagazmia refko hu'ne.
10 When he died, he was buried in Bethlehem.
Hagi Ipsanima frige'za Betlehemu kumate asente'naze.
11 After Ibzan died, a man named Elon, from the tribe of Zebulun, became the leader of the Israeli people. He was their leader for ten years.
Hagi Ipsani'ma frigeno'a, Zebuluni nagapinti ne' Eloni 10ni'a kafufi Israeli vahera kegava huzmanteno mani'neno keaga refko hu'ne.
12 Then he died and was buried in Aijalon [city] in the area where the tribe of Zebulun lives.
Hagi Zebuluni ne' Eloni'ma frigeno'a, Aijaloni kumate Zebuluni mopafi asente'naze.
13 After Elon died, a man named Abdon who was the son of Hillel, from Pirathon [city, in the area where the tribe of Ephraim live] became the leader of the Israeli people.
Hagi Eloni'ma frigeno'a, Piratoni kumateti ne' Hileli nemofo Abdoni Israeli vahera kegava huzmanteno mani'neno keagazimia refko huzmante'ne.
14 He had 40 sons and 30 grandsons. Each of them had his own donkey on which to ride. Abdon was the leader of the Israeli people for eight years.
Hagi Abdoni'a 40'a ne'mofavrerami antegeno agehe'za 30'a ne' mofavrerami fore hu'nazankino, 70'a donki afu agumpi vano hu'naze. Hagi Abdoni'a 8'a kafufi Israeli vahera kegava huzmante'neno keagazimia refko hu'ne.
15 When Abdon died, he was buried in Pirathon, in the hilly area where the descendants of Amalek lived previously, [but now it is the area where the tribe of Ephraim lives].
Hagi Piratoni kumate ne' Hileli ne'mofo Abdoni'ma frige'za, Efraemi mopafi Piratoni kumate Ameleki vahe agona kokampi asente'naze.
