Lunakanawai 12
1 A KOAKOA mai la na kanaka o ka Eperaima, a hele ae la i ka aoao akau, i aku la ia Iepeta, No ke aha la oe i hele aku e kaua aku i na mamo a Amona, aole kii mai ia makou e hele pu me oe? E puhi ana makou i kou hale i ke ahi maluna ou.
A call went out to the men of Ephraim; they passed through Zaphon and said to Jephthah, “Why did you pass through to fight against the people of Ammon and did not call us to go with you? We will burn your house down over you.”
2 I mai la o Iepeta ia lakou, He kanaka hakaka nui loa au me na mamo a Amona, a o ko'u poe kanaka kekahi; a i ko'u hea ana aku ia oukou, aole oukou i hoopakele mai ia'u, mai ko lakou lima mai.
Jephthah said to them, “I and my people were in a great conflict with the people of Ammon. When I called you, you did not rescue me from them.
3 A ike aku la au, aole oukou i hoopakele mai ia'u, alaila waiho iho la au i ko'u ola ma kuu lima, a hele ku e aku la i na mamo a Amona. Haawi mai no o Iehova ia lakou iloko o kuu lima. No ke aha la hoi oukou i hele mai ai ia'u i keia la e kaua mai ia'u?
When I saw that you did not rescue me, When I saw that you did not rescue me, I put my life in my own hand and passed through against the people of Ammon, and Yahweh gave me victory. Why have you come to fight against me today?”
4 Alaila hoakoakoa mai la o Iepeta i na kanaka o Gileada, a kaua pu iho la me ka Eperaima. Luku aku la na kanaka o Gileada i ka Eperaima, no ka mea, olelo lakou, O oukou, o ko Gileada, he poe aea oukou no Eperaima, e noho ana mawaena o ka Eperaima, a me ka Manase.
Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead and he fought against Ephraim. The men of Gilead attacked the men of Ephraim because they said, “You Gileadites are fugitives in Ephraim—in Ephraim and Manasseh.”
5 Lilo iho la na ahua o Ioredane i ka Gileada, mamua o ka Eperaima. A ina i hele mai kekahi o ka Eperaima, i pakele, a olelo mai, E hele paha wau i kela aoao; alaila ninau ae la na kanaka o Gileada ia ia, No ka Eperaima oe? A ina olelo mai oia, Aole;
The Gileadites captured the fords of the Jordan leading to Ephraim. When any of the survivors of Ephraim said, “Let me go over the river,” the men of Gilead would say to him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” If he said, “No,”
6 Alaila, olelo mai lakou ia ia, E i iho oe, Sehiboleta. I mai la kela, Siboleta; no ka mea, aole hiki ia ia ke olelo pololei pela. Alaila hoopaa lakou ia ia, a pepehi no ma na ahua o Ioredane. Ia manawa haule na kanaka o Eperaima, he kanahakumamalua tausani.
then they would say to him, “Say: Shibboleth,” and if he said “Sibboleth” (for he could not pronounce the word correctly), the Gileadites would seize him and kill him at the fords of the Jordan. Forty-two thousand Ephraimites were killed at that time.
