< Judges 12 >

1 And the men of Ephraim are called together, and pass over northward, and say to Jephthah, 'Wherefore has thou passed over to fight against the Bene-Ammon, and on us hast not called to go with thee? thy house we burn over thee with fire.'
Hiche jouchun Ephraim mipihon asepaiteu achom khommun Jordan vadung apal galkaijun Zaphon geijin acheuvin Jepthah kommah thupo leho thu athotnun hitin aseijun ahi, “Ammon mitetoh kisat dinga nakon uva chu ipi dinga neihin koulou uham? Nanghi na intoh kahallhah thading nahi” atiuvin ahi.
2 And Jephthah saith unto them, 'A man of great strife I have been (I and my people) with the Bene-Ammon, and I call you, and ye have not saved me out of their hand,
Jepthah in amaho chu adonbut in, “Boina ahung kipat chun nangho kahin kouve, ahinla nangho nahung pouvin ahi!
3 and I see that thou art not a saviour, and I put my life in my hand, and pass over unto the Bene-Ammon, and Jehovah giveth them into my hand — and why have ye come up unto me this day to fight against me?'
Hitiahi nangho nahung nomlou kahetdoh phatnin, hinkho phalngam in nangho pang louvin galmunna hin kachen Pakaiyin Ammon mite chunga hin galjona eipetan ahi. Ahile tuahi ipi dinga keima to kisat dinga nahung jenguham?” atin ahi.
4 And Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead, and fighteth with Ephraim, and the men of Gilead smite Ephraim, because they said, 'Fugitives of Ephraim [are] ye Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim — in the midst of Manasseh.'
Nangho Gilead mitehi imacha hilou Ephraim le Manesseh a konna jamdoh ho maimai nahilouvu ham?” atiuve. Hijouchun Jepthah in Gilead mite jouse chu aloikhom’in Ephraim mite chu akisatpin ajoutan ahi.
5 And Gilead captureth the passages of the Jordan to Ephraim, and it hath been, when [any of] the fugitives of Ephraim say, 'Let me pass over,' and the men of Gilead say to him, 'An Ephramite thou?' and he saith, 'No;'
Jepthah in Jordan vadung palmun chu alokhum’in Ephraim’a konna jamdoh khattou chu akinungle a hiche munhi ahinpal gotleh Gilead mihochun “Ephraim phungmi nahim?” tin adong jiuvin, kahipoi atiuleh,
6 that they say to him, 'Say, I pray thee, Shibboleth;' and he saith, 'Sibboleth,' and is not prepared to speak right — and they seize him, and slaughter him at the passages of the Jordan, and there fall at that time, of Ephraim, forty and two chiefs.
Amahon “Shebboleth” ti-in atiuvin, amachu Ephraim mi ahileh “Shebboleth’’ atidiu ahi, ajeh chu Ephraim miten hiche thucheng hi adih a aseitheiji louvu ahi. Hiteng chuleh amahon apuidoh uva Jordan kaimun’a chu athajiu ahi. Hiche phat laichun Ephraim techu sangsomli le ni ana thatnun ahi.
7 And Jephthah judged Israel six years, and Jephthah the Gileadite dieth, and is buried in [one of] the cities of Gilead.
Jepthah in Israel te chunga anavaihom nachu kum gup alhingin ahi. Ama athi chun Gilead gamsunga ama khopia anavui un ahi.
8 And after him Ibzan of Beth-Lehem judgeth Israel,
Jepthah thinungin Bethlehem mi Ibzan chun Israelte chungah thutannin anapangin ahi.
9 and he hath thirty sons and thirty daughters, he hath sent without and thirty daughters hath brought in to his sons from without; and he judgeth Israel seven years.
