Judges 11:29-40

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}
