Judges 12:1-6

12:1

And the men
<0376>

of Ephraim
<0669>

gathered themselves together
<06817> (8735)_,

and went
<05674> (8799)

northward
<06828>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jephthah
<03316>_,

Wherefore passedst thou over
<05674> (8804)

to fight
<03898> (8736)

against the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_,

and didst not call
<07121> (8804)

us to go
<03212> (8800)

with thee? we will burn
<08313> (8799)

thine house
<01004>

upon thee with fire
<0784>_.

{gathered...: Heb. were called}

12:2

And Jephthah
<03316>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, I and my people
<05971>

were
<01961> (8804)

at great
<03966>

strife
<0376> <07379>

with the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_;

and when I called
<02199> (8799)

you, ye delivered
<03467> (8689)

me not out of their hands
<03027>_.

12:3

And when I saw
<07200> (8799)

that ye delivered
<03467> (8688)

[me] not, I put
<07760> (8799)

my life
<05315>

in my hands
<03709>_,

and passed over
<05674> (8799)

against the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

delivered
<05414> (8799)

them into my hand
<03027>_:

wherefore then are ye come up
<05927> (8804)

unto me this day
<03117>_,

to fight
<03898> (8736)

against me?

12:4

Then Jephthah
<03316>

gathered together
<06908> (8799)

all the men
<0582>

of Gilead
<01568>_,

and fought
<03898> (8735)

with Ephraim
<0669>_:

and the men
<0582>

of Gilead
<01568>

smote
<05221> (8686)

Ephraim
<0669>_,

because they said
<0559> (8804)_,

Ye Gileadites
<01568>

[are] fugitives
<06412>

of Ephraim
<0669>

among
<08432>

the Ephraimites
<0669>_,

[and] among
<08432>

the Manassites
<04519>_.

12:5

And the Gileadites
<01568>

took
<03920> (8799)

the passages
<04569>

of Jordan
<03383>

before the Ephraimites
<0669>_:

and it was [so], that when those Ephraimites
<0669>

which were escaped
<06412>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let me go over
<05674> (8799)_;

that the men
<0582>

of Gilead
<01568>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, [Art] thou an Ephraimite
<0673>_?

If he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Nay;

12:6

Then said
<0559> (8799)

they unto him, Say
<0559> (8798)

now Shibboleth
<07641>_:

and he said
<0559> (8799)

Sibboleth
<05451>_:

for he could not frame
<03559> (0)

to pronounce
<01696> (8763)

[it] right
<03559> (8686)_.

Then they took
<0270> (8799)

him, and slew
<07819> (8799)

him at the passages
<04569>

of Jordan
<03383>_:

and there fell
<05307> (8799)

at that time
<06256>

of the Ephraimites
<0669>

forty
<0705>

and two
<08147>

thousand
<0505>_.

at great
<03966>

strife
<0376> <07379>

with the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_;

and when I called
<02199> (8799)

you, ye delivered
<03467> (8689)

me not out of their hands
<03027>_.

And it came to pass in those days
<03117>_,

when [there was] no king
<04428>

in Israel
<03478>_,

that there was a certain
<0376>

sojourning
<01481> (8802)

<03947> (8799)

to him a concubine

out of Bethlehemjudah
<01035> <03063>_.

For wrath
<03708>

killeth
<02026> (8799)

the foolish man

<07068>

slayeth
<04191> (8686)

the silly one

Again, I considered
<07200> (8804)

all travail
<05999>_,

and every right
<03788>

work
<04639>_,

that for this a man
<0376>

is envied
<07068>

of his neighbour
<07453>_.

This [is] also vanity
<01892>

and vexation
<07469>

of spirit
<07307>_.

{every...: Heb. all the rightness of work} {for this...: Heb. this is the envy of a man from his neighbour}

<1380> (5719)

that
<3754>

the scripture
<1124>

saith

in vain
<2761>_,

The spirit
<4151>

that
<3739>

dwelleth
<2730> (5656)

in
<1722>

us
<2254>

lusteth
<1971> (5719)

to
<4314>

envy
<5355>_?

{to envy: or, enviously?}

But
<1161>

he giveth
<1325> (5719)

more
<3187>

grace
<5485>_.

he saith
<3004> (5719)_,

God
<2316>

resisteth
<498> (5731)

the proud
<5244>_,

but
<1161>

giveth
<1325> (5719)

grace
<5485>

unto the humble
<5011>_.
