Judges 10:17--11:11

Then the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
were gathered together
<06817> (8735)_,
and encamped
<02583> (8799)
in Gilead
<01568>_.
And the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
assembled themselves together
<0622> (8735)_,
and encamped
<02583> (8799)
in Mizpeh
<04709>_.
{gathered: Heb. cried}
And the people
<05971>
[and] princes
<08269>
of Gilead
<01568>
said
<0559> (8799)
one
<0376>
to another
<07453>_,
What man
<0376>
[is he] that will begin
<02490> (8686)
to fight
<03898> (8736)
against the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_?
he shall be head
<07218>
over all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Gilead
<01568>_.
Now Jephthah
<03316>
the Gileadite
<01569>
was a mighty man
<01368>
of valour
<02428>_,
and he [was] the son
<01121>
of an harlot
<0802> <02181> (8802)_:
and Gilead
<01568>
begat
<03205> (8686)
Jephthah
<03316>_.
{Jephthah: Gr. Jephthae} {an harlot: Heb. a woman an harlot}
And Gilead's
<01568>
wife
<0802>
bare
<03205> (8799)
him sons
<01121>_;
and his wife's
<0802>
sons
<01121>
grew up
<01431> (8799)_,
and they thrust out
<01644> (8762)
Jephthah
<03316>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Thou shalt not inherit
<05157> (8799)
in our father's
<01>
house
<01004>_;
for thou [art] the son
<01121>
of a strange
<0312>
woman
<0802>_.
Then Jephthah
<03316>
fled
<01272> (8799)
from
<06440>
his brethren
<0251>_,
and dwelt
<03427> (8799)
in the land
<0776>
of Tob
<02897>_:
and there were gathered
<03950> (8691)
vain
<07386>
men
<0582>
to Jephthah
<03316>_,
and went out
<03318> (8799)
with him. {from: Heb. from the face [of]}
And it came to pass in process of time
<03117>_,
that the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
made war
<03898> (8735)
against Israel
<03478>_.
{in process...: Heb. after days}
And it was so, that when the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
made war
<03898> (8738)
against Israel
<03478>_,
the elders
<02205>
of Gilead
<01568>
went
<03212> (8799)
to fetch
<03947> (8800)
Jephthah
<03316>
out of the land
<0776>
of Tob
<02897>_:
And they said
<0559> (8799)
unto Jephthah
<03316>_,
Come
<03212> (8798)_,
and be our captain
<07101>_,
that we may fight
<03898> (8735)
with the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_.
And Jephthah
<03316>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the elders
<02205>
of Gilead
<01568>_,
Did not ye hate
<08130> (8804)
me, and expel
<01644> (8762)
me out of my father's
<01>
house
<01004>_?
and why are ye come
<0935> (8804)
unto me now when ye are in distress
<06887> (8804)_?
And the elders
<02205>
of Gilead
<01568>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Jephthah
<03316>_,
Therefore we turn again
<07725> (8804)
to thee now, that thou mayest go
<01980> (8804)
with us, and fight
<03898> (8738)
against the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_,
and be our head
<07218>
over all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Gilead
<01568>_.
And Jephthah
<03316>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the elders
<02205>
of Gilead
<01568>_,
If ye bring me home again
<07725> (8688)
to fight
<03898> (8736)
against the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_,
and the LORD
<03068>
deliver
<05414> (8804)
them before
<06440>
me, shall I be your head
<07218>_?
And the elders
<02205>
of Gilead
<01568>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Jephthah
<03316>_,
The LORD
<03068>
be witness
<08085> (8802)
between us, if we do
<06213> (8799)
not so according to thy words
<01697>_.
{witness...: Heb. the hearer between us}
Then Jephthah
<03316>
went
<03212> (8799)
with the elders
<02205>
of Gilead
<01568>_,
and the people
<05971>
made
<07760> (8799)
him head
<07218>
and captain
<07101>
over them: and Jephthah
<03316>
uttered
<01696> (8762)
all his words
<01697>
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
in Mizpeh
<04709>_.
