< Judges 12 >

1 Àwọn ọkùnrin Efraimu pe àwọn ológun wọn jáde, wọ́n sì rékọjá sí ìhà àríwá, wọ́n sì bi Jefta pé, “Èéṣe tí o fi lọ bá àwọn ará Ammoni jagun láì ké sí wa láti bá ọ lọ? Àwa yóò sun ilé rẹ mọ́ ọ lórí.”
The men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward; and they said to Jephthah, “Why did you pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didn’t call us to go with you? We will burn your house around you with fire!”
2 Jefta dáhùn pé, “Èmi àti àwọn ènìyàn ní ìyọnu ńlá pẹ̀lú àwọn ará Ammoni, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé mo pè yín, ẹ̀yin kò gbà mí sílẹ̀ ní ọwọ́ wọn.
Jephthah said to them, “I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, you didn’t save me out of their hand.
3 Nígbà tí mo rí i pé ẹ̀yin kò gbà mí, mo fi ẹ̀mí mi wéwu. Mó sì gòkè lọ láti bá àwọn ará Ammoni jà, Olúwa sì fún mi ní ìṣẹ́gun lórí wọn, èéṣe báyìí tí ẹ fi dìde wá lónìí láti bá mi jà?”
When I saw that you didn’t save me, I put my life in my hand, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand. Why then have you come up to me today, to fight against me?”
4 Nígbà náà ni Jefta kó gbogbo ọkùnrin Gileadi jọ, ó sì bá Efraimu jà. Àwọn ọkùnrin Gileadi sì kọlù Efraimu, nítorí wọ́n ti sọtẹ́lẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ̀yin ará Gileadi jẹ́ àsáwọ̀ àwọn ará Efraimu àti ti Manase.”
Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim. The men of Gilead struck Ephraim, because they said, “You are fugitives of Ephraim, you Gileadites, in the middle of Ephraim, and in the middle of Manasseh.”
5 Àwọn ará Gileadi gba à bá wọ odò Jordani tí wọ́n máa gbà lọ sí Efraimu, nígbàkígbà tí àwọn ará Efraimu bá wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí ń sálọ sí òkè,” lọ́hùn ún àwọn ará Gileadi yóò bi í pé, “Ṣé ará Efraimu ni ìwọ ń ṣe?” Tí ó bá wí pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́,”
The Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. Whenever a fugitive of Ephraim said, “Let me go over,” the men of Gilead said to him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” If he said, “No;”
6 wọ́n ó wí fún un pé, “Ó dá à wí pé ‘Ṣibolẹti.’” Tí ó bá ní, “Sibolẹti,” torí pé kò ní mọ̀ ọ́n pé dáradára, wọ́n á mú un wọn, a sì pa á ni à bá wọ odò Jordani. Àwọn ará Efraimu tí wọn pa ní àkókò yìí jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún méjìlélógójì ọkùnrin.
then they said to him, “Now say ‘Shibboleth;’” and he said “Sibboleth”; for he couldn’t manage to pronounce it correctly, then they seized him and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. At that time, forty-two thousand of Ephraim fell.
