Judges 11:13-27

11:13

And the king
<04428>

of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>

answered
<0559> (8799)

unto the messengers
<04397>

of Jephthah
<03316>_,

Because Israel
<03478>

took away
<03947> (8804)

my land
<0776>_,

when they came up
<05927> (8800)

out of Egypt
<04714>_,

from Arnon
<0769>

even unto Jabbok
<02999>_,

and unto Jordan
<03383>_:

now therefore restore those [lands] again
<07725> (8685)

peaceably
<07965>_.

11:14

And Jephthah
<03316>

sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

again
<03254> (8686)

unto the king
<04428>

of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_:

11:15

And said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

Jephthah
<03316>_,

Israel
<03478>

took not away
<03947> (8804)

the land
<0776>

of Moab
<04124>_,

nor the land
<0776>

of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_:

11:16

But when Israel
<03478>

came up
<05927> (8800)

from Egypt
<04714>_,

and walked
<03212> (8799)

through the wilderness
<04057>

unto the Red
<05488>

sea
<03220>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to Kadesh
<06946>_;

11:17

Then Israel
<03478>

sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

unto the king
<04428>

of Edom
<0123>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Let me, I pray thee, pass through
<05674> (8799)

thy land
<0776>_:

but the king
<04428>

of Edom
<0123>

would not hearken
<08085> (8804)

[thereto]. And in like manner they sent
<07971> (8804)

unto the king
<04428>

of Moab
<04124>_:

but he would
<014> (8804)

not [consent]: and Israel
<03478>

abode
<03427> (8799)

in Kadesh
<06946>_.

11:18

Then they went along
<03212> (8799)

through the wilderness
<04057>_,

and compassed
<05437> (8799)

the land
<0776>

of Edom
<0123>_,

and the land
<0776>

of Moab
<04124>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

by the east side
<04217> <08121>

of the land
<0776>

of Moab
<04124>_,

and pitched
<02583> (8799)

on the other side
<05676>

of Arnon
<0769>_,

but came
<0935> (8804)

not within the border
<01366>

of Moab
<04124>_:

for Arnon
<0769>

[was] the border
<01366>

of Moab
<04124>_.

11:19

And Israel
<03478>

sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

unto Sihon
<05511>

king
<04428>

of the Amorites
<0567>_,

the king
<04428>

of Heshbon
<02809>_;

and Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Let us pass
<05674> (8799)_,

we pray thee, through thy land
<0776>

into
<05704>

my place
<04725>_.

11:20

But Sihon
<05511>

trusted
<0539> (8689)

not Israel
<03478>

to pass
<05674> (8800)

through his coast
<01366>_:

but Sihon
<05511>

gathered
<0622> (0)

all his people
<05971>

together
<0622> (8799)_,

and pitched
<02583> (8799)

in Jahaz
<03096>_,

and fought
<03898> (8735)

against Israel
<03478>_.

11:21

And the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

delivered
<05414> (8799)

Sihon
<05511>

and all his people
<05971>

into the hand
<03027>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and they smote
<05221> (8686)

them: so Israel
<03478>

possessed
<03423> (8799)

all the land
<0776>

of the Amorites
<0567>_,

the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of that country
<0776>_.

11:22

And they possessed
<03423> (8799)

all the coasts
<01366>

of the Amorites
<0567>_,

from Arnon
<0769>

even unto Jabbok
<02999>_,

and from the wilderness
<04057>

even unto Jordan
<03383>_.

11:23

So now the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

hath dispossessed
<03423> (8689)

the Amorites
<0567>

from before
<06440>

his people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>_,

and shouldest thou possess
<03423> (8799)

it?

11:24

Wilt not thou possess
<03423> (8799)

that which Chemosh
<03645>

thy god
<0430>

giveth thee to possess
<03423> (8686)_?

So whomsoever the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

shall drive out
<03423> (8689)

from before
<06440>

us, them will we possess
<03423> (8799)_.

11:25

And now [art] thou any thing better
<02896>

than Balak
<01111>

the son
<01121>

of Zippor
<06834>_,

king
<04428>

of Moab
<04124>_?

did he ever
<07378> (8800)

strive
<07378> (8804)

against Israel
<03478>_,

or did he ever
<03898> (8736)

fight
<03898> (8738)

against them,

11:26

While Israel
<03478>

dwelt
<03427> (8800)

in Heshbon
<02809>

and her towns
<01323>_,

and in Aroer
<06177>

and her towns
<01323>_,

and in all the cities
<05892>

that [be] along by the coasts
<03027>

of Arnon
<0769>_,

three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

years
<08141>_?

why therefore did ye not recover
<05337> (8689)

[them] within that time
<06256>_?

11:27

Wherefore I have not sinned
<02398> (8804)

against thee, but thou doest
<06213> (8802) <0853>

me wrong
<07451>

to war
<03898> (8736)

against me: the LORD
<03068>

the Judge
<08199> (8802)

be judge
<08199> (8799)

this day
<03117>

between the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

and the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_.
