< 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.
Nifanontoñe o nte-Efraimeo naho nimb’e Tsafone mb’eo, nanao ty hoe amy Ieftake, Ino ty nitsaha’ areo mb’eo hialia’o amo nte-Amoneo f’ie tsy nitoka anay hindreza’ay? Ho forototoe’ay añ’ afo ama’o ty anjomba’o.
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.
Le hoe ty natoi’ Ieftake am’ iareo, Toe niampohek’ amo ana’ i Amoneo naho ondatiko iraho te nikanjy anahareo, f’ie tsy nañaro ahy am-pità’ iareo.
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?
Aa kanao tsy narova’ areo le namoeako fiay nitsake mb’ amo ana’ i Amoneo mb’eo, vaho natolo’ Iehovà an-tañako. Aa le ino ty nitroara’ areo amako androany hialia’ areo?
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.
Natonto’ Ieftake o lahilahi’ i Gilade iabio naho nialy amy Efraime; vaho linafa’ o nte-Giladeo t’i Efraime, ami’ty natao’ iareo ty hoe: Ondaty gike e Efraime nahareo nte Gilade añivo’ i Efraime naho i Menasè ao.
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;
Rinambe’ o nte-Giladeo amy Efraime o fitsaha’ Iordaney boake Efraimeo, ie amy zao naho teo ty nipoliotse amo nte-Efraimeo nanao ty hoe: Ehe angao hi­tsake? Le nañontane aze o nte-Giladeo ty hoe: nte Efraime hao? Aa naho Tsie ty natao’e;
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.
le nanoe’ iareo ama’e ty hoe: Ano ty hoe: Sibolete, te mone nanao ty hoe Tsibolete—ie toe tsy nahafanoñoñe’e—le nitsepaheñe vaho vinono’ iareo amo fitsaha’ Iordaneio; nte Efraime efats’ ale-tsi-ro’ arivo ty nikorovoke henane zay.
7 And Jephthah judged Israel six years: then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in [one of] the cities of Gilead.
Enen-taoñe ty nizakà’ Ieftake Israele, le nivilasy t’Ieftake nte-Gilade, vaho nalentek’ an-drova’ o nte-Giladeo.
8 And after him Ibzan of Beth-lehem judged Israel.
Nanonjohy aze, t’Ibtsane nte-Betlekheme nizaka ­Israele.
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.
Nanañ’ anadahy telo-polo re naho anak’ ampela telopolo naho naondra’e añe vaho nampimoahe’e boak’ añe ka ty anak’ ampela ho a o ana-dahi’eo. Nizaka Israele fito taoñe
10 Then died Ibzan, and was buried at Beth-lehem.
le nivilasy t’Ib­tsane, vaho nalenteke e Betlekheme ao.
11 And after him Elon, a Zebulonite, judged Israel, and he judged Israel ten years.
Ie añe le nizaka Israele folo taoñe t’i Elone nte-Zebolone.
12 And Elon the Zebulonite died, and was buried in Ajalon in the country of Zebulun.
Ie nihomake t’i Elone nte-Zebolone, le nalenteke Aialone an-tane Zebolone ao.
13 And after him Abdon the son of Hillel, a Pirathonite, judged Israel.
Nanonjohy aze nizaka Israele t’i Abdone ana’ i Mpandrenge nte-Piratone.
14 And he had forty sons and thirty nephews, that rode on seventy ass colts: and he judged Israel eight years.
Nanañ’ana-dahy efa-polo re naho afe telo-polo mpiningitse ana-borìke fitom-polo, nizaka valo taoñe.
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.
Nivilasy t’i Abdone ana’ i Mpandrenge nte-Piratone vaho nalenteke e Piratone an-tane Efraime am-bohi’ i Amaleke ao.
