وَٱجْتَمَعَ رِجَالُ أَفْرَايِمَ وَعَبَرُوا إِلَى جِهَةِ ٱلشِّمَالِ، وَقَالُوا لِيَفْتَاحَ: «لِمَاذَا عَبَرْتَ لِمُحَارَبَةِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ وَلَمْ تَدْعُنَا لِلذَّهَابِ مَعَكَ؟ نُحْرِقُ بَيْتَكَ عَلَيْكَ بِنَارٍ». ١ 1
The men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward; and they said to Jephthah, "Why did you pass over to fight against the people of Ammon, and did not call us to go with you? We will burn your house on you with fire."
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَفْتَاحُ: «صَاحِبَ خِصَامٍ شَدِيدٍ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَشَعْبِي مَعَ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، وَنَادَيْتُكُمْ فَلَمْ تُخَلِّصُونِي مِنْ يَدِهِمْ. ٢ 2
And Jephthah said to them, "I and my people had a dispute, and the people of Ammon were oppressing me greatly; and when I called you, you 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
When I saw that you did not save me, I put my life in my own hands, and passed over against the people of Ammon, and YHWH delivered them into my hand. Why then have you come up to me this day, to fight against me?"
وَجَمَعَ يَفْتَاحُ كُلَّ رِجَالِ جِلْعَادَ وَحَارَبَ أَفْرَايِمَ، فَضَرَبَ رِجَالُ جِلْعَادَ أَفْرَايِمَ لِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا: «أَنْتُمْ مُنْفَلِتُو أَفْرَايِمَ. جِلْعَادُ بَيْنَ أَفْرَايِمَ وَمَنَسَّى». ٤ 4
Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim; and the men of Gilead struck Ephraim, because they said, "You are fugitives of Ephraim, you Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim, and in the midst of Manasseh."
فَأَخَذَ ٱلْجِلْعَادِيُّونَ مَخَاوِضَ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ لِأَفْرَايِمَ. وَكَانَ إِذْ قَالَ مُنْفَلِتُو أَفْرَايِمَ: «دَعُونِي أَعْبُرْ». كَانَ رِجَالُ جِلْعَادَ يَقُولُونَ لَهُ: «أَأَنْتَ أَفْرَايِمِيٌّ؟» فَإِنْ قَالَ: «لَا» ٥ 5
The Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. It was so, that when any of the fugitives of Ephraim said, "Let me go over," the men of Gilead said to him, "Are you an Ephraimite?" If 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, "Now say 'Shibboleth;'" and he said "Sibboleth"; for he couldn't manage to pronounce it right: then they seized him, and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. There fell at that time of Ephraim forty-two thousand.
وَقَضَى يَفْتَاحُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ سِتَّ سِنِينٍ. وَمَاتَ يَفْتَاحُ ٱلْجِلْعَادِيُّ وَدُفِنَ فِي إِحْدَى مُدُنِ جِلْعَادَ. ٧ 7
Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in his city in Gilead.
وَقَضَى بَعْدَهُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ إِبْصَانُ مِنْ بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ. ٨ 8
After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.
وَكَانَ لَهُ ثَلَاثُونَ ٱبْنًا وَثَلَاثُونَ ٱبْنَةً أَرْسَلَهُنَّ إِلَى ٱلْخَارِجِ، وَأَتَى مِنَ ٱلْخَارِجِ بِثَلَاثِينَ ٱبْنَةً لِبَنِيهِ. وَقَضَى لِإِسْرَائِيلَ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ. ٩ 9
He had thirty sons; and thirty daughters he sent abroad, and thirty daughters he brought in from abroad for his sons. He judged Israel seven years.
وَمَاتَ إِبْصَانُ وَدُفِنَ فِي بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ. ١٠ 10
Ibzan died, and was buried at Bethlehem.
وَقَضَى بَعْدَهُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ إِيلُونُ ٱلزَّبُولُونِيُّ. قَضَى لِإِسْرَائِيلَ عَشَرَ سِنِينَ. ١١ 11
After him Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.
وَمَاتَ إِيلُونُ ٱلزَّبُولُونِيُّ وَدُفِنَ فِي أَيَّلُونَ، فِي أَرْضِ زَبُولُونَ. ١٢ 12
Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.
وَقَضَى بَعْدَهُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ عَبْدُونُ بْنُ هِلِّيلَ ٱلْفِرْعَتُونِيُّ. ١٣ 13
After him Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.
وَكَانَ لَهُ أَرْبَعُونَ ٱبْنًا وَثَلَاثُونَ حَفِيدًا يَرْكَبُونَ عَلَى سَبْعِينَ جَحْشًا. قَضَى لِإِسْرَائِيلَ ثَمَانِيَ سِنِينَ. ١٤ 14
He had forty sons and thirty grandsons who rode on seventy donkey colts. And he judged Israel eight years.
وَمَاتَ عَبْدُونُ بْنُ هِلِّيلَ ٱلْفِرْعَتُونِيُّ وَدُفِنَ فِي فِرْعَتُونَ، فِي أَرْضِ أَفْرَايِمَ، فِي جَبَلِ ٱلْعَمَالِقَةِ. ١٥ 15
Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.
