1 Alò, fis a Éphraïm yo te rasanble. Yo te travèse vè Tsaphon e te di a Jephethé: “Poukisa ou te travèse pou batay avèk fis Ammon yo san rele nou pou ale avèk ou? Nou va brile kay ou sou ou.”
Pea naʻe fakakātoa fakataha ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau tangata ʻo ʻIfalemi, ʻonau ʻalu atu ki he potu tokelau, ʻonau pehē kia Sefita, “Ko e hā naʻa ke ʻalu ai ki he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni ke tau, ka naʻe ʻikai te ke ui kimautolu ke tau ō mo koe? Te mau tutu ho fale ʻi ʻolunga ʻiate koe.”
2 Jephthé te di yo: “Mwen avèk pèp mwen an t ap fè gwo kont avèk fis Ammon yo; epi lè mwen te rele nou, nou pa t delivre mwen nan men yo.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sefita kiate kinautolu, “Ko au mo hoku kakai naʻa mau fekeʻikeʻi lahi mo e fānau ʻa ʻAmoni; pea ʻi heʻeku ui ʻakimoutolu naʻe ʻikai te mou fakamoʻui au mei honau nima.
3 Lè m te wè ke nou pa t ap delivre mwen, mwen te pran pwòp lavi mwen nan men m, e te travèse lòtbò kont fis Ammon yo, epi SENYÈ a te livre yo nan men m. Poukisa, konsa, nou vin monte sou mwen nan jou sa a pou goumen kont mwen?”
Pea ʻi heʻeku mamata naʻe ʻikai te mou fakamoʻui au, naʻaku ʻai ʻeku moʻui ki hoku nima, pea u ʻalu atu ʻo tuʻu hake ki he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea naʻe tuku mai ʻakinautolu ʻe Sihova ki hoku nima: ko ia ko e hā kuo mou haʻu ai he ʻaho ni, ke tau kiate au?”
4 Epi Jephthé te ranmase tout gason Galaad yo pou te goumen kont Éphraïm. Mesye Galaad yo te bat Éphraïm, akoz yo te di: “Se moun sove devan Éphraïm ke nou ye; O Galaadit yo, ki nan mitan Ephraïm ak nan mitan Manassé.”
Pea naʻe tānaki fakataha ʻe Sefita ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻo Kiliati, pea naʻa ne tauʻi ʻa ʻIfalemi: pea naʻe teʻia ʻe he kau tangata ʻo Kiliati ʻa ʻIfalemi, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau pehē, “Ko e kau hola mei ʻIfalemi ʻakimoutolu ʻae kau Kiliati, pea mei he kakai Manase.”
5 Galaadit yo te kaptire tout kote pou janbe Rivyè Jourdain anfas Éphraïm nan. Epi li te rive ke lè nenpòt nan moun sove Éphraïm yo te di: “Kite mwen janbe,” mesye Galaad yo ta di li: “Èske ou se yon Efrayimit?” Epi si li te di: “Non”,
Pea tomuʻa maʻu ʻae ngaahi aʻaʻanga ʻo Sioatani ʻe he kakai Kiliati ʻi he kakai ʻIfalemi: pea naʻe pehē, ʻi he lau ʻe he kau ʻIfalemi ko ia kuo hao, ʻo pehē, Tuku au ke u ʻalu ki he kauvai; naʻe pehē ʻe he kau tangata ʻo Kiliati ki ai, “Ko e tangata ʻIfalemi koe?” Kapau naʻa ne pehē, “ʻIkai:”
6 alò, yo te di li: “Silvouplè, di ‘Shibboleth.’” Men li ta di: “Sibboleth”, paske li pa t kab pwononse li byen. Konsa, yo ta sezi li pou touye li nan kote pou janbe Jourdain an. Konsa, te tonbe nan lè sa a, karann-de-mil nan Efrayimit yo.
Naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, “Ke ke pehē mai Sihipoleti:’ Ka naʻa ne pehē, Sipoleti: he naʻe ʻikai te ne faʻa lea ʻaki ia ke totonu: Pea naʻa nau ʻave ia, ʻo tāmateʻi ia ʻi he aʻaʻanga ʻo Sioatani: pea naʻe tō ai ʻi he kuonga ko ia ʻae kau tangata ʻIfalemi ʻe toko ua mano mo e toko ua afe.
7 Jephthé te jije Israël pandan sis ane. Epi Jephthé, Galaadit la te mouri e te antere nan youn nan vil nan Galaad yo.
Pea naʻe fakamaau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe Sefita ʻi he taʻu ʻe ono. Pea naʻe toki pekia ʻa Sefita ko e tangata Kiliati, pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi he kolo ʻe taha ʻi Kiliati.
8 Alò, Ibtsan a Bethléhem te jije Israël apre li.

Pea naʻe toko tolungofulu hono ngaahi foha mo toko tolungofulu hono ʻofefine ʻaia naʻa ne fekau atu ki he mamaʻo, ʻo ne ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻe toko tolungofulu mei he mamaʻo ki hono ngaahi foha. Pea naʻa ne fakamaauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitu.
10 Konsa, Ibtsan te mouri e te antere Bethléhem.

12 Konsa, Élon, Zabilonit lan te mouri e te antere nan Ajalon nan peyi a Zabulon.
Pea naʻe pekia ʻa ʻEloni ko e tangata Sepuloni, pea naʻe tanu ia ʻi ʻAsaloni ʻi he fonua ʻo Sepuloni.

Pea naʻe hoko mo ia, ʻae fakamaauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe ʻApitoni ko e foha ʻo Ileli ko e tangata ʻo Pilatoni.
14 Li te gen karant fis avèk trant pitit pitit ki te monte sou swasann-dis bourik. Li te jije Israël pandan uit ane.
Pea naʻe toko fāngofulu hono foha, pea toko tolungofulu hono ʻilamutu, naʻe faʻa heka ʻi he ʻasi mui ʻe fitungofulu: pea naʻe fakamaau ʻe ia ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he taʻu ʻe valu.
15 Epi Abdon, fis a Hillel la, Piratonit lan te mouri e te antere nan Pirathon nan peyi Ephraïm nan, nan peyi ti mòn ki te pou Amalekit yo.
Pea naʻe pekia ʻa ʻApitoni ko e foha ʻo Ileli, ko e tangata Pilatoni, pea naʻe fai ia ʻi Pilatoni ʻi he fonua ʻo ʻIfalemi, ʻi he moʻunga ʻoe kau ʻAmaleki.
