وَٱجْتَمَعَ رِجَالُ أَفْرَايِمَ وَعَبَرُوا إِلَى جِهَةِ ٱلشِّمَالِ، وَقَالُوا لِيَفْتَاحَ: «لِمَاذَا عَبَرْتَ لِمُحَارَبَةِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ وَلَمْ تَدْعُنَا لِلذَّهَابِ مَعَكَ؟ نُحْرِقُ بَيْتَكَ عَلَيْكَ بِنَارٍ». ١ 1
And the men of Ephraim assembled [themselves], and passed on to the north, and said to Jephthae, Wherefore didst thou go over to fight with the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thy house over thee with fire.
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَفْتَاحُ: «صَاحِبَ خِصَامٍ شَدِيدٍ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَشَعْبِي مَعَ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، وَنَادَيْتُكُمْ فَلَمْ تُخَلِّصُونِي مِنْ يَدِهِمْ. ٢ 2
And Jephthae said to them, I and my people and the children of Ammon were very much engaged in war; and I called for you, and ye did not save me out of their hand.
وَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُ أَنَّكُمْ لَا تُخَلِّصُونَ، وَضَعْتُ نَفْسِي فِي يَدِي وَعَبَرْتُ إِلَى بَنِي عَمُّونَ، فَدَفَعَهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَدِي. فَلِمَاذَا صَعِدْتُمْ عَلَيَّ ٱلْيَوْمَ هَذَا لِمُحَارَبَتِي؟». ٣ 3
And I saw that thou wert no helper, and I put my life in my hand, and passed on to the sons of Ammon; and the Lord delivered them into my hand: and wherefore are ye come up against me this day to fight with me?
وَجَمَعَ يَفْتَاحُ كُلَّ رِجَالِ جِلْعَادَ وَحَارَبَ أَفْرَايِمَ، فَضَرَبَ رِجَالُ جِلْعَادَ أَفْرَايِمَ لِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا: «أَنْتُمْ مُنْفَلِتُو أَفْرَايِمَ. جِلْعَادُ بَيْنَ أَفْرَايِمَ وَمَنَسَّى». ٤ 4
And Jephthae gathered all the men of Galaad, and fought with Ephraim; and the men of Galaad smote Ephraim, because they that were escaped of Ephraim said, Ye [are] of Galaad in the midst of Ephraim and in the midst of Manasse.
فَأَخَذَ ٱلْجِلْعَادِيُّونَ مَخَاوِضَ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ لِأَفْرَايِمَ. وَكَانَ إِذْ قَالَ مُنْفَلِتُو أَفْرَايِمَ: «دَعُونِي أَعْبُرْ». كَانَ رِجَالُ جِلْعَادَ يَقُولُونَ لَهُ: «أَأَنْتَ أَفْرَايِمِيٌّ؟» فَإِنْ قَالَ: «لَا» ٥ 5
And Galaad took the fords of Jordan before Ephraim; and they that escaped of Ephraim said to them, Let us go over: and the men of Galaad said, Art thou an Ephrathite? and he said, No.
كَانُوا يَقُولُونَ لَهُ: «قُلْ إِذًا: شِبُّولَتْ» فَيَقُولُ: «سِبُّولَتْ» وَلَمْ يَتَحَفَّظْ لِلَّفْظِ بِحَقٍّ. فَكَانُوا يَأْخُذُونَهُ وَيَذْبَحُونَهُ عَلَى مَخَاوِضِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ. فَسَقَطَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ مِنْ أَفْرَايِمَ ٱثْنَانِ وَأَرْبَعُونَ أَلْفًا. ٦ 6
Then they said to him, Say now Stachys; and he did not rightly pronounce it so: and they took him, and slew him at the fords of Jordan; and there fell at that time of Ephraim two and forty thousand.
وَقَضَى يَفْتَاحُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ سِتَّ سِنِينٍ. وَمَاتَ يَفْتَاحُ ٱلْجِلْعَادِيُّ وَدُفِنَ فِي إِحْدَى مُدُنِ جِلْعَادَ. ٧ 7
And Jephthae judged Israel six years; and Jephthae the Galaadite died, and was buried in his city Galaad.
وَقَضَى بَعْدَهُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ إِبْصَانُ مِنْ بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ. ٨ 8
And after him Abaissan of Bethleem judged Israel.
وَكَانَ لَهُ ثَلَاثُونَ ٱبْنًا وَثَلَاثُونَ ٱبْنَةً أَرْسَلَهُنَّ إِلَى ٱلْخَارِجِ، وَأَتَى مِنَ ٱلْخَارِجِ بِثَلَاثِينَ ٱبْنَةً لِبَنِيهِ. وَقَضَى لِإِسْرَائِيلَ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ. ٩ 9
And he had thirty sons, and thirty daughters, whom he sent forth; and he brought in thirty daughters for his sons from without; and he judged Israel seven years.
وَمَاتَ إِبْصَانُ وَدُفِنَ فِي بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ. ١٠ 10
And Abaissan died, and was buried in Bethleem.
وَقَضَى بَعْدَهُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ إِيلُونُ ٱلزَّبُولُونِيُّ. قَضَى لِإِسْرَائِيلَ عَشَرَ سِنِينَ. ١١ 11
And after him Aelom of Zabulon judged Israel ten years.
وَمَاتَ إِيلُونُ ٱلزَّبُولُونِيُّ وَدُفِنَ فِي أَيَّلُونَ، فِي أَرْضِ زَبُولُونَ. ١٢ 12
And Aelom of Zabulon died, and was buried in Aelom in the land of Zabulon.
وَقَضَى بَعْدَهُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ عَبْدُونُ بْنُ هِلِّيلَ ٱلْفِرْعَتُونِيُّ. ١٣ 13
And after him Abdon the son of Ellel, the Pharathonite, judged Israel.
وَكَانَ لَهُ أَرْبَعُونَ ٱبْنًا وَثَلَاثُونَ حَفِيدًا يَرْكَبُونَ عَلَى سَبْعِينَ جَحْشًا. قَضَى لِإِسْرَائِيلَ ثَمَانِيَ سِنِينَ. ١٤ 14
And he had forty sons, and thirty grandsons, that rode upon seventy colts: and he judged Israel eight years.
وَمَاتَ عَبْدُونُ بْنُ هِلِّيلَ ٱلْفِرْعَتُونِيُّ وَدُفِنَ فِي فِرْعَتُونَ، فِي أَرْضِ أَفْرَايِمَ، فِي جَبَلِ ٱلْعَمَالِقَةِ. ١٥ 15
And Abdon the son of Ellel, the Pharathonite, died, and was buried in Pharathon in the land of Ephraim in the mount of Amalec.
