Sog̒u 12
1 Tad Efraīma vīri tapa sasaukti un gāja pret ziemeļa pusi un sacīja uz Jeftu: kāpēc tu esi gājis karot pret Amona bērniem un mūs neesi aicinājis, tev iet līdzi? Mēs tavu namu pār tevi sadedzināsim ar uguni.
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 Un Jeftus uz tiem sacīja: man un maniem ļaudīm bija liels strīds ar Amona bērniem, un es jūs lūdzu, bet jūs man nepalīdzējāt (atbrīvoties) no viņu rokas.
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 Kad es nu redzēju, ka jūs negribējāt palīdzēt, tad es savu dvēseli liku savā rokā un gāju pret Amona bērniem, un Tas Kungs tos nodeva manā rokā. Kāpēc tad jūs šodien pret mani esat nākuši, karot ar mani?
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 Un Jeftus sapulcēja visus Gileādas vīrus un karoja ar Efraīmu, un Gileādas vīrī sakāva Efraīmu, tāpēc ka tie sacīja: jūs Gileādieši starp Efraīma un Manasus, jūs esat Efraīma bēgļi.
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 Un Gileādieši aizņēma Efraīmiešiem Jardānes pārejamo vietu. Un kad Efraīmieši bēgot sacīja: ļauj man pāriet! Tad Gileādas vīri uz to sacīja: vai tu esi no Efraīma? Kad viņš tad sacīja: ne!
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 Tad tie uz viņu sacīja: saki jel: Šibolet! Un kad tas sacīja: Sibolet! Un to nevarēja pareizi izrunāt; tad tie viņu sagrāba un to nokāva pie Jardānes pārejamās vietas, ka tanī laikā no Efraīma četrdesmit divi tūkstoši krita.
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.
7 Bet Jeftus tiesāja Israēli sešus gadus. Un Jeftus, tas Gileādietis, nomira un tapa aprakts kādā Gileādas pilsētā.

10 Un tas Israēli tiesāja septiņus gadus; tad Ebcans nomira un tapa aprakts Bētlemē.
