Jueces 12
Schlachter-Bibel 1951
1Aber die Männer von Ephraim versammelten sich und zogen nach Zaphon und sprachen zu Jephtah: Warum bist du wider die Kinder Ammon in den Streit gezogen und hast uns nicht gerufen, daß wir mit dir zögen? Wir wollen dein Haus samt dir mit Feuer verbrennen!
2Jephtah sprach zu ihnen: Ich und mein Volk hatten einen schweren Streit mit den Kindern Ammon, und ich schrie zu euch, aber ihr halfet mir nicht aus ihrer Hand.
3Als ich nun sah, daß bei euch keine Hilfe war, setzte ich mein Leben daran und zog hin wider die Kinder Ammon, und der HERR gab sie in meine Hand. Warum kommt ihr heute zu mir herauf, um wider mich zu streiten?
4Und Jephtah versammelte alle Männer von Gilead und stritt wider Ephraim. Und die Männer von Gilead schlugen Ephraim, weil sie gesagt hatten: Ihr seid ephraimitische Flüchtlinge; Gilead liegt zwischen Ephraim und Manasse!
5Und die Gileaditer besetzten die Furt des Jordan vor Ephraim. Wenn nun die flüchtenden Ephraimiter sprachen: Laß mich hinübergehen! so sprachen die Männer von Gilead: Bist du ein Ephraimiter? Wenn er dann antwortete: Nein!
6so sprachen sie zu ihm: Sage doch: Schibbolet! Sprach er alsdann «Sibbolet», weil er es nicht recht aussprechen konnte, so fingen sie ihn und töteten ihn an der Furt des Jordan, so daß zu der Zeit von Ephraim zweiundvierzigtausend fielen.
7Jephtah aber richtete Israel sechs Jahre lang. Dann starb Jephtah, der Gileaditer, und ward begraben in einer der Städte Gileads.
8Nach ihm richtete Ibzan von Bethlehem das Volk Israel.
9Der hatte dreißig Söhne und entließ dreißig Töchter aus seinem Haus und nahm seinen Söhnen dreißig Töchter von auswärts und richtete Israel sieben Jahre lang.
10Darnach starb Ibzan und ward zu Bethlehem begraben.
11Nach ihm richtete Elon, ein Sebuloniter, das Volk Israel; der richtete Israel zehn Jahre lang.
12Und Elon, der Sebuloniter, starb und ward begraben zu Ajalon im Lande Sebulon.
13Nach ihm richtete Abdon, der Sohn Hillels, ein Piratoniter, das Volk Israel.
14Der hatte vierzig Söhne und dreißig Enkel, die auf siebzig Eselsfüllen ritten; der richtete Israel acht Jahre lang.
15Darnach starb Abdon, der Sohn Hillels, der Piratoniter, und ward begraben zu Piraton im Lande Ephraim auf dem Gebirge der Amalekiter.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Y JUNTÁNDOSE los varones de Ephraim, pasaron hacia el aquilón, y dijeron á Jephté: ¿Por qué fuiste á hacer guerra contra los hijos de Ammón, y no nos llamaste para que fuéramos contigo? Nosotros quemaremos á fuego tu casa contigo.
2Y Jephté les respondió: Yo tuve, y mi pueblo, una gran contienda con los hijos de Ammón, y os llamé, y no me defendisteis de sus manos.
3Viendo pues que no me defendíais, puse mi alma en mi palma, y pasé contra los hijos de Ammón, y Jehová los entregó en mi mano: ¿por qué pues habéis subido hoy contra mí para pelear conmigo?
4Y juntando Jephté á todos los varones de Galaad, peleó contra Ephraim; y los de Galaad hirieron á Ephraim, porque habían dicho: Vosotros sois fugitivos de Ephraim, vosotros sois Galaaditas entre Ephraim y Manasés.
5Y los Galaaditas tomaron los vados del Jordán á Ephraim; y era que, cuando alguno de los de Ephraim que había huído, decía, ¿pasaré? los de Galaad le preguntaban: ¿Eres tú Ephrateo? Si él respondía, No;
6Entonces le decían: Ahora pues, di, Shiboleth. Y él decía, Siboleth; porque no podía pronunciar de aquella suerte. Entonces le echaban mano, y le degollaban junto á los vados del Jordán. Y murieron entonces de los de Ephraim cuarenta y dos mil.
7Y Jephté juzgó á Israel seis años: luego murió Jephté Galaadita, y fué sepultado en una de las ciudades de Galaad.
8Después de él juzgó á Israel Ibzan de Beth-lehem;
9El cual tuvo treinta hijos y treinta hijas, las cuales casó fuera, y tomó de fuera treinta hijas para sus hijos: y juzgó á Israel siete años.
10Y murió Ibzan, y fué sepultado en Beth-lehem.
11Después de él juzgó á Israel Elón, Zabulonita, el cual juzgó á Israel diez años.
12Y murió Elón, Zabulonita, y fué sepultado en Ajalón en la tierra de Zabulón.
13Después de él juzgó á Israel Abdón hijo de Hillel, Piratonita.
14Este tuvo cuarenta hijos y treinta nietos, que cabalgaban sobre setenta asnos: y juzgó á Israel ocho años.
15Y murió Abdón hijo de Hillel, Piratonita, y fué sepultado en Piratón, en la tierra de Ephraim, en el monte de Amalec.
King James Version
1And the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and went northward, and said unto Jephthah, Wherefore passedst thou over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thine house upon thee with fire.
2And Jephthah said unto them, I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, ye delivered me not out of their hands.
3And when I saw that ye delivered me not, I put my life in my hands, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand: wherefore then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me?
4Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim: and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, Ye Gileadites are fugitives of Ephraim among the Ephraimites, and among the Manassites.
5And the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it was so, that when those Ephraimites which were escaped said, Let me go over; that the men of Gilead said unto him, Art thou an Ephraimite? If he said, Nay;
6Then said they unto him, Say now Shibboleth: and he said Sibboleth: for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took him, and slew him at the passages of Jordan: and there fell at that time of the Ephraimites forty and two thousand.
7And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then died Jephthah the Gileadite, and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.
8And after him Ibzan of Beth-lehem judged Israel.
9And he had thirty sons, and thirty daughters, whom he sent abroad, and took in thirty daughters from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.
10Then died Ibzan, and was buried at Beth-lehem.
11And after him Elon, a Zebulonite, judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.
12And Elon the Zebulonite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the country of Zebulun.
13And after him Abdon the son of Hillel, a Pirathonite, judged Israel.
14And he had forty sons and thirty nephews, that rode on threescore and ten ass colts: and he judged Israel eight years.
15And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the mount of the Amalekites.
World English Bible
1The men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward; and they said to Jephthah, “Why did you pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didn’t call us to go with you? We will burn your house around you with fire!”
2Jephthah said to them, “I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, you didn’t save me out of their hand.
3When I saw that you didn’t save me, I put my life in my hand, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand. Why then have you come up to me today, to fight against me?”
4Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim. The men of Gilead struck Ephraim, because they said, “You are fugitives of Ephraim, you Gileadites, in the middle of Ephraim, and in the middle of Manasseh.”
5The Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. Whenever a fugitive of Ephraim said, “Let me go over,” the men of Gilead said to him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” If he said, “No;”
6then they said to him, “Now say ‘Shibboleth;’” and he said “Sibboleth”; for he couldn’t manage to pronounce it correctly, then they seized him and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. At that time, forty-two thousand of Ephraim fell.
7Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in the cities of Gilead.
8After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.
9He had thirty sons. He sent his thirty daughters outside his clan, and he brought in thirty daughters from outside his clan for his sons. He judged Israel seven years.
10Ibzan died, and was buried at Bethlehem.
11After him, Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years.
12Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.
13After him, Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.
14He had forty sons and thirty sons’ sons who rode on seventy donkey colts. He judged Israel eight years.
15Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.
