Judges 11:12-40

And Jephthah
<03316>

sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

unto the king
<04428>

of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come
<0935> (8804)

against me to fight
<03898> (8736)

in my land
<0776>_?

And the king
<04428>

of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>

answered
<0559> (8799)

unto the messengers
<04397>

of Jephthah
<03316>_,

Because Israel
<03478>

took away
<03947> (8804)

my land
<0776>_,

when they came up
<05927> (8800)

out of Egypt
<04714>_,

from Arnon
<0769>

even unto Jabbok
<02999>_,

and unto Jordan
<03383>_:

now therefore restore those [lands] again
<07725> (8685)

peaceably
<07965>_.

And Jephthah
<03316>

sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

again
<03254> (8686)

unto the king
<04428>

of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_:

And said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

Jephthah
<03316>_,

Israel
<03478>

took not away
<03947> (8804)

the land
<0776>

of Moab
<04124>_,

nor the land
<0776>

of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_:

But when Israel
<03478>

came up
<05927> (8800)

from Egypt
<04714>_,

and walked
<03212> (8799)

through the wilderness
<04057>

unto the Red
<05488>

sea
<03220>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to Kadesh
<06946>_;

Then Israel
<03478>

sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

unto the king
<04428>

of Edom
<0123>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Let me, I pray thee, pass through
<05674> (8799)

thy land
<0776>_:

but the king
<04428>

of Edom
<0123>

would not hearken
<08085> (8804)

[thereto]. And in like manner they sent
<07971> (8804)

unto the king
<04428>

of Moab
<04124>_:

but he would
<014> (8804)

not [consent]: and Israel
<03478>

abode
<03427> (8799)

in Kadesh
<06946>_.

Then they went along
<03212> (8799)

through the wilderness
<04057>_,

and compassed
<05437> (8799)

the land
<0776>

of Edom
<0123>_,

and the land
<0776>

of Moab
<04124>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

by the east side
<04217> <08121>

of the land
<0776>

of Moab
<04124>_,

and pitched
<02583> (8799)

on the other side
<05676>

of Arnon
<0769>_,

but came
<0935> (8804)

not within the border
<01366>

of Moab
<04124>_:

for Arnon
<0769>

[was] the border
<01366>

of Moab
<04124>_.

And Israel
<03478>

sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

unto Sihon
<05511>

king
<04428>

of the Amorites
<0567>_,

the king
<04428>

of Heshbon
<02809>_;

and Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Let us pass
<05674> (8799)_,

we pray thee, through thy land
<0776>

into
<05704>

my place
<04725>_.

But Sihon
<05511>

trusted
<0539> (8689)

not Israel
<03478>

to pass
<05674> (8800)

through his coast
<01366>_:

but Sihon
<05511>

gathered
<0622> (0)

all his people
<05971>

together
<0622> (8799)_,

and pitched
<02583> (8799)

in Jahaz
<03096>_,

and fought
<03898> (8735)

against Israel
<03478>_.

And the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

delivered
<05414> (8799)

Sihon
<05511>

and all his people
<05971>

into the hand
<03027>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and they smote
<05221> (8686)

them: so Israel
<03478>

possessed
<03423> (8799)

all the land
<0776>

of the Amorites
<0567>_,

the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of that country
<0776>_.

And they possessed
<03423> (8799)

all the coasts
<01366>

of the Amorites
<0567>_,

from Arnon
<0769>

even unto Jabbok
<02999>_,

and from the wilderness
<04057>

even unto Jordan
<03383>_.

So now the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

hath dispossessed
<03423> (8689)

the Amorites
<0567>

from before
<06440>

his people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>_,

and shouldest thou possess
<03423> (8799)

it?

Wilt not thou possess
<03423> (8799)

that which Chemosh
<03645>

thy god
<0430>

giveth thee to possess
<03423> (8686)_?

So whomsoever the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

shall drive out
<03423> (8689)

from before
<06440>

us, them will we possess
<03423> (8799)_.

And now [art] thou any thing better
<02896>

than Balak
<01111>

the son
<01121>

of Zippor
<06834>_,

king
<04428>

of Moab
<04124>_?

did he ever
<07378> (8800)

strive
<07378> (8804)

against Israel
<03478>_,

or did he ever
<03898> (8736)

fight
<03898> (8738)

against them,

While Israel
<03478>

dwelt
<03427> (8800)

in Heshbon
<02809>

and her towns
<01323>_,

and in Aroer
<06177>

and her towns
<01323>_,

and in all the cities
<05892>

that [be] along by the coasts
<03027>

of Arnon
<0769>_,

three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

years
<08141>_?

why therefore did ye not recover
<05337> (8689)

[them] within that time
<06256>_?

Wherefore I have not sinned
<02398> (8804)

against thee, but thou doest
<06213> (8802) <0853>

me wrong
<07451>

to war
<03898> (8736)

against me: the LORD
<03068>

the Judge
<08199> (8802)

be judge
<08199> (8799)

this day
<03117>

between the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

and the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_.

Howbeit the king
<04428>

of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>

hearkened
<08085> (8804)

not unto the words
<01697>

of Jephthah
<03316>

which he sent
<07971> (8804)

him.

Then the Spirit
<07307>

of the LORD
<03068>

came upon Jephthah
<03316>_,

and he passed over
<05674> (8799)

Gilead
<01568>_,

and Manasseh
<04519>_,

and passed over
<05674> (8799)

Mizpeh
<04708>

of Gilead
<01568>_,

and from Mizpeh
<04708>

of Gilead
<01568>

he passed over
<05674> (8804)

[unto] the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_.

And Jephthah
<03316>

vowed
<05087> (8799)

a vow
<05088>

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

If thou shalt without fail
<05414> (8800)

deliver
<05414> (8799)

the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>

into mine hands
<03027>_,

Then it shall be, that whatsoever
<03318> (8802)

cometh forth
<03318> (8799)

of the doors
<01817>

of my house
<01004>

to meet
<07125> (8800)

me, when I return
<07725> (8800)

in peace
<07965>

from the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_,

shall surely be the LORD'S
<03068>_,

and I will offer it up
<05927> (8689)

for a burnt offering
<05930>_.

{whatsoever...: Heb. that which cometh forth, which shall come forth} {and...: or, or I will offer it, etc}

So Jephthah
<03316>

passed over
<05674> (8799)

unto the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>

to fight
<03898> (8736)

against them; and the LORD
<03068>

delivered
<05414> (8799)

them into his hands
<03027>_.

And he smote
<05221> (8686)

them from Aroer
<06177>_,

even till thou come
<0935> (8800)

to Minnith
<04511>_,

[even] twenty
<06242>

cities
<05892>_,

and unto the plain
<058>

of the vineyards
<03754> (8677) <064>_,

with a very
<03966>

great
<01419>

slaughter
<04347>_.

Thus the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>

were subdued
<03665> (8735)

before
<06440>

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_.

{the plain: or, Abel}

And Jephthah
<03316>

came
<0935> (8799)

to Mizpeh
<04709>

unto his house
<01004>_,

and, behold, his daughter
<01323>

came out
<03318> (8802)

to meet
<07125> (8800)

him with timbrels
<08596>

and with dances
<04246>_:

and she [was his] only child
<03173>_;

beside her he had neither son
<01121>

nor
<0176>

daughter
<01323>_.

{beside...: or, he had not of his own either son or daughter: Heb. of himself}

And it came to pass, when he saw
<07200> (8800)

her, that he rent
<07167> (8799)

his clothes
<0899>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Alas
<0162>_,

my daughter
<01323>_!

thou hast brought
<03766> (0)

me very
<03766> (8689)

low
<03766> (8687)_,

and thou art one of them that trouble
<05916> (8802)

me: for I have opened
<06475> (8804)

my mouth
<06310>

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and I cannot
<03201> (8799)

go back
<07725> (8800)_.

And she said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, My father
<01>_,

[if] thou hast opened
<06475> (8804)

thy mouth
<06310>

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

do
<06213> (8798)

to me according to that which
<0834>

hath proceeded
<03318> (8804)

out of thy mouth
<06310>_;

forasmuch
<0310>

as the LORD
<03068>

hath taken
<06213> (8804)

vengeance
<05360>

for thee of thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

[even] of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_.

And she said
<0559> (8799)

unto her father
<01>_,

Let this thing
<01697>

be done
<06213> (8735)

for me: let me alone
<07503> (8685)

two
<08147>

months
<02320>_,

that I may go up
<03212> (8799)

and down
<03381> (8804)

upon the mountains
<02022>_,

and bewail
<01058> (8799)

my virginity
<01331>_,

I and my fellows
<07464> (8675) <07474>_.

{go up...: Heb. go and go down}

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go
<03212> (8798)_.

And he sent her away
<07971> (8799)

[for] two
<08147>

months
<02320>_:

and she went
<03212> (8799)

with her companions
<07464>_,

and bewailed
<01058> (8799)

her virginity
<01331>

upon the mountains
<02022>_.

And it came to pass at the end
<07093>

of two
<08147>

months
<02320>_,

that she returned
<07725> (8799)

unto her father
<01>_,

who did
<06213> (8799)

with her [according] to his vow
<05088>

which he had vowed
<05087> (8804)_:

and she knew
<03045> (8804)

no man
<0376>_.

And it was a custom
<02706>

in Israel
<03478>_,

{custom: or, ordinance}

[That] the daughters
<01323>

of Israel
<03478>

went
<03212> (8799)

yearly
<03117> <03117>

to lament
<08567> (8763)

the daughter
<01323>

of Jephthah
<03316>

the Gileadite
<01569>

four
<0702>

days
<03117>

in a year
<08141>_.

{yearly: Heb. from year to year} {to lament: or, to talk with}
