Judges 12
1 And the men of Ephraim assembled, and went northward, and said to Jephthah, Why didst thou pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee; we will burn thy house upon thee with fire.
Mwet Ephraim elos akola in mweun, na elos fahla sasla Infacl Jordan ac som nu Zaphon ac fahk nu sel Jephthah, “Efu ku kom som mweuni mwet Ammon ac tia suli kut? Kut ac esukak lohm sum an nu fom!”
2 And Jephthah said to them, I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, ye delivered me not out of their hands.
Na Jephthah el topuk ac fahk nu selos, “Nga ac mwet luk uh tuh oru alein na yohk se nu sin mwet Ammon, ac kut pangon kowos, tuh kowos tiana tuku kasrekut.
3 And when I saw that ye delivered [me] not, I put my life in my hands, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand: why then have ye come up to me this day, to fight against me?
Ke nga akilenak lah kowos ac tia kasreyu, nga pilesrala moul luk ac sifacna som ainulos, ac LEUM GOD El ase kutangla nu sik. Na efu ku kowos tuku in mweuniyu misenge?”
4 Then Jephthah collected all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim: and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye Gileadites [are] fugitives of Ephraim among the Ephraimites, [and] among the Manassites.
Ke ma inge Jephthah el pangoneni mwet Gilead nukewa ac elos som mweuni mwet Ephraim ac kutangulosla. (Mweyen mwet Ephraim elos tuh fahk ouinge, “Kowos mwet Gilead su muta in acn Ephraim ac Manasseh, kowos mwet kaing liki kut tari!”)
5 And the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it was [so], that when those Ephraimites who had escaped, said, Let me go over; that the men of Gilead said to him, [Art] thou an Ephraimite? If he said, No;
Mwet Gilead elos sruokya acn nukewa ma mwet uh muta ut we in alukela Infacl Jordan, tuh mwet Ephraim elos in kofla kaing ut we. Mwet Ephraim se fin srike in kaingla ac siyuk elan fahla ke sie sin acn inge, na mwet Gilead elos ac siyuk sel, “Kom mwet Ephraim se?” Na el fin fahk mu “Mo,”
6 Then said they to him, Say now Shibboleth: and he said Sibboleth: for he could not frame to pronounce [it] right. Then they took him, and slew him at the passages of Jordan. And there fell at that time of the Ephraimites forty and two thousand.
na elos ac sap elan fahk kas se inge, “Shibboleth.” Tuh el fin fahk “Sibboleth,” (ke sripen mwet Ephraim uh kofla fahkla suwohs kas sac) na mwet Gilead elos ac sruokya mwet sac ac unilya na insacn, ke soko sin inkanek in foroht forma ke Infacl Jordan. Mwet Ephraim angngaul luo tausin pa anwuki in pacl sac.
7 And Jephthah judged Israel six years: then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in [one of] the cities of Gilead.
Jephthah el kol mwet Israel ke yac onkosr. Na el misa, ac pukpuki el inkul sel sifacna in acn Gilead.
8 And after him Ibzan of Beth-lehem judged Israel.
Tokol Jephthah, Ibzan mwet Bethlehem el kol Israel.
9 And he had thirty sons and thirty daughters [whom] he sent abroad, and took in thirty daughters from abroad for his sons: and he judged Israel seven years.
Oasr wen tolngoul ac acn tolngoul natul. El sang acn natul inge in payuk sin mwet sayen sruf lal uh, ac use mutan fusr tolngoul liki sruf saya in payuk sin wen natul ah. Ibzan el tuh kol mwet Israel ke yac itkosr,
10 Then died Ibzan, and was buried at Beth-lehem.
na el misa, ac pukpuki el in acn Bethlehem.
11 And after him Elon, a Zebulonite, judged Israel, and he judged Israel ten years.
Tokol Ibzan, Elon mwet Zebulun, el kol mwet Israel ke yac singoul.
12 And Elon the Zebulonite died, and was buried in Ajalon in the country of Zebulun.
Na Elon el misa, ac pukpuki el in acn Aijalon in facl sin mwet Zebulun.
13 And after him Abdon the son of Hillel, a Pirathonite, judged Israel.
Tokol Elon, Abdon, wen natul Hillel mwet Pirathon, el kol mwet Israel.
14 And he had forty sons and thirty nephews, that rode on seventy ass colts: and he judged Israel eight years.
Oasr wen angngaul natul, ac wen tolngoul nutin wen natul su kasrusr fin donkey itngoul. El kol mwet Israel ke yac oalkosr.
15 And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the mount of the Amalekites.
Na Abdon el misa, ac pukpuki el in acn Pirathon in facl sin mwet Ephraim, infulan eol ma mwet Amalek elos muta we.
