Fakamaau 12
1 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.”
以法蓮人聚集，到了北方，對耶弗他說：「你去與亞捫人爭戰，為甚麼沒有招我們同去呢？我們必用火燒你和你的房屋。」
2 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.
耶弗他對他們說：「我和我的民與亞捫人大大爭戰；我招你們來，你們竟沒有來救我脫離他們的手。
3 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?”
我見你們不來救我，我就拚命前去攻擊亞捫人，耶和華將他們交在我手中。你們今日為甚麼上我這裏來攻打我呢？」
4 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.”
於是耶弗他招聚基列人，與以法蓮人爭戰。基列人擊殺以法蓮人，是因他們說：「你們基列人在以法蓮、瑪拿西中間，不過是以法蓮逃亡的人。」
5 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:”
基列人把守約旦河的渡口，不容以法蓮人過去。以法蓮逃走的人若說：「容我過去。」基列人就問他說：「你是以法蓮人不是？」他若說：「不是」，
6 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.
就對他說：「你說『示播列』。」以法蓮人因為咬不真字音，便說「西播列」。基列人就將他拿住，殺在約旦河的渡口。那時以法蓮人被殺的有四萬二千人。
7 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 Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻa Ipisani mei Petelihema ʻi he fakamaauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli.
耶弗他以後，有伯利恆人以比讚作以色列的士師。
9 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.

13 Pea naʻe hoko mo ia, ʻae fakamaauʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe ʻApitoni ko e foha ʻo Ileli ko e tangata ʻo Pilatoni.

15 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.
