Juízes 12
1 Então se convocaram os homens de Ephraim, e passaram para o norte, e disseram a Jefthe: Porque passaste a combater contra os filhos de Ammon, e não nos chamaste para ir contigo? queimaremos a fogo a tua casa contigo.
And the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward. And they said to Jephthah, Why did thou pass over to fight against the sons of Ammon, and did not call us to go with thee? We will burn thy house upon thee with fire.
2 E Jefthe lhes disse: Eu e o meu povo tivemos grande contenda com os filhos de Ammon: e chamei-vos, e não me livrastes da sua mão;
And Jephthah said to them, I and my people were at great strife with the sons of Ammon, and when I called you, ye did not save me out of their hand.
3 E, vendo eu que me não livraveis, pus a minha alma na minha mão, e passei aos filhos de Ammon, e o Senhor mos entregou nas mãos: porque pois subistes vós hoje contra mim, para combater contra mim
And when I saw that ye did not save me, I put my life in my hand, and passed opposite the sons of Ammon, and Jehovah delivered them into my hand. Why then have ye come up to me this day, to fight against me?
4 E ajuntou Jefthe a todos os homens de Gilead, e combateu com Ephraim: e os homens de Gilead feriram a Ephraim; porque, estando os gileaditas entre Ephraim e Manasseh, disseram: Fugitivos sois de Ephraim.
Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim. And the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye are fugitives of Ephraim, ye Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim, and in the midst of Manasseh.
5 Porque tomaram os gileaditas aos ephraimitas os vaus do Jordão: e sucedeu que, quando os fugitivos de Ephraim diziam: Passarei; então os homens de Gilead lhes diziam: és tu ephratita? E dizendo ele: Não;
And the Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. And it was so, that, when any of the fugitives of Ephraim said, Let me go over, the men of Gilead said to him, Are thou an Ephraimite? If he said, No,
6 Então lhe diziam: Dize pois, Shibboleth; porém ele dizia: Sibboleth, porque o não podia pronunciar assim bem: então pegavam dele, e o degolavam aos vaus do Jordão: e cairam de Ephraim naquele tempo quarenta e dois mil.
then they said to him, Say now Shibboleth, and he said Sibboleth, for he could not frame to pronounce it right, then they laid hold on him, and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. And there fell at that time of Ephraim forty-two thousand.
7 E Jefthe julgou a Israel seis anos: e Jefthe, o gileadita, faleceu, e foi sepultado nas cidades de Gilead.
And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.
8 E depois dele julgou a Israel Ebsan de Beth-lehem.
And after him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.
9 E tinha este trinta filhos; e enviou fora a trinta filhas; e trinta filhas trouxe de fora para seus filhos: e julgou a Israel sete anos.
And he had thirty sons. And he sent abroad thirty daughters, and thirty daughters he brought in from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.
10 Então faleceu Ebsan, e foi sepultado em Beth-lehem.
And Ibzan died, and was buried at Bethlehem.
11 E depois dele julgou a Israel Elon, o zebulonita: e julgou a Israel dez anos.
And after him Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel, and he judged Israel ten years.
12 E faleceu Elon, o zebulonita, e foi sepultado em Ayalon, na terra de Zebulon.
And Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.
13 E depois dele julgou a Israel Abdon, filho de Hillel, o pirathonita.
And after him Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.
14 E tinha este quarenta filhos, e trinta filhos de filhos, que cavalgavam sobre setenta jumentos: e julgou a Israel oito anos.
And he had forty sons and thirty sons' sons who rode on seventy donkey colts, and he judged Israel eight years.
15 Então faleceu Abdon, filho de Hillel, o pirathonita: e foi sepultado em Pirathon, na terra de Ephraim, no monte do amalekita.
And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill-country of the Amalekites.
