Judges 11:1-7

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)_?
