| 1 Και συνηχθησαν οι ανδρες Εφραιμ, και επερασαν προς βορραν και ειπαν προς τον Ιεφθαε, Δια τι επερασας να πολεμησης εναντιον των υιων Αμμων, και δεν εκαλεσας ημας να ελθωμεν μετα σου; τον οικον σου θελομεν καυσει επανω σου εν πυρι. | 1 The men of Ephraim were called to arms, and they crossed to Zaphon and said to Jephthah, "Why did you cross over to fight against the Ammonites, and did not call us to go with you? We will burn your house over you with fire." |
| 2 Και ειπεν ο Ιεφθαε προς αυτους, Εγω και ο λαος μου ηλθομεν εις μεγαλην φιλονεικιαν μετα των υιων Αμμων? και σας εκραξα και δεν με εσωσατε εκ της χειρος αυτων? | 2 And Jephthah said to them, "I and my people had a great feud with the Ammonites; and when I called you, you did not deliver me from their hand. |
| 3 και ιδων οτι δεν με εσωσατε, ερριψοκινδυνευσα την ζωην μου και επερασα εναντιον των υιων Αμμων, και ο Κυριος παρεδωκεν αυτους εις την χειρα μου? δια τι λοιπον ανεβητε προς εμε σημερον δια να με πολεμησητε; | 3 And when I saw that you would not deliver me, I took my life in my hand, and crossed over against the Ammonites, and the LORD gave them into my hand; why then have you come up to me this day, to fight against me?" |
| 4 Τοτε συνηθροισεν ο Ιεφθαε παντας τους ανδρας της Γαλααδ και επολεμησε τον Εφραιμ? και επαταξαν οι ανδρες της Γαλααδ τους Εφραιμιτας, διοτι ειπαν, Φυγαδες του Εφραιμ εισθε σεις οι Γαλααδιται, μεταξυ του Εφραιμ και μεταξυ του Μανασση. | 4 Then Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead and fought with Ephraim; and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim, because they said, "You are fugitives of Ephraim, you Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim and Manasseh." |
| 5 Και επιασαν αι Γαλααδιται διαβασεις του Ιορδανου προ των Εφραιμιτων? και οποτε τις εκ των Εφραιμιτων φυγαδων ελεγε, Θελω να περασω, τοτε οι ανδρες της Γαλααδ ελεγον προς αυτον, Μηπως εισαι Εφραιμιτης; Εαν εκεινος ελεγεν, Ουχι, | 5 And the Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. And when any of the fugitives of Ephraim said, "Let me go over," the men of Gilead said to him, "Are you an Ephraimite?" When he said, "No," |
| 6 τοτε ελεγον προς αυτον, Ειπε λοιπον Σχιββωλεθ? και εκεινος ελεγε Σιββωλεθ? διοτι δεν ηδυνατο να προφερη ουτω. Τοτε επιανον αυτον και εφονευον αυτον εις τας διαβασεις του Ιορδανου. Και επεσον κατ' εκεινον τον καιρον τεσσαρακοντα δυο χιλιαδες Εφραιμιται. | 6 they said to him, "Then say Shibboleth," and he said, "Sibboleth," for he could not pronounce it right; then they seized him and slew him at the fords of the Jordan. And there fell at that time forty-two thousand of the Ephraimites. |
| 7 Και εκρινεν ο Ιεφθαε τον Ισραηλ εξ ετη. Και απεθανεν ο Ιεφθαε ο Γαλααδιτης και εταφη εν πολει τινι της Γαλααδ. | 7 Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died, and was buried in his city in Gilead. |
| 8 Και μετ' αυτον εκρινε τον Ισραηλ Αβαισαν ο εκ Βηθλεεμ. | 8 After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel. |
| 9 Και ειχε τριακοντα υιους και τριακοντα θυγατερας, τας οποιας υπανδρευσεν? ελαβε δε εξωθεν τριακοντα νεας δια τους υιους αυτου. Και εκρινε τον Ισραηλ επτα ετη. | 9 He had thirty sons; and thirty daughters he gave in marriage outside his clan, and thirty daughters he brought in from outside for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years. |
| 10 Και απεθανεν ο Αβαισαν και εταφη εν Βηθλεεμ. | 10 Then Ibzan died, and was buried at Bethlehem. |
| 11 Και μετ' αυτον εκρινε τον Ισραηλ Αιλων ο Ζαβουλωνιτης? και εκρινε τον Ισραηλ δεκα ετη. | 11 After him Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years. |
| 12 Και απεθανεν Αιλων ο Ζαβουλωνιτης και εταφη εις Αιαλων εν τη γη Ζαβουλων. | 12 Then Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried at Aijalon in the land of Zebulun. |
| 13 Και μετ' αυτον εκρινε τον Ισραηλ Αβδων, ο υιος του Ελληλ, ο Πιραθωνιτης. | 13 After him Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel. |
| 14 Και ειχε τεσσαρακοντα υιους και τριακοντα εγγονους, επιβαινοντας επι εβδομηκοντα πωλαρια? και εκρινε τον Ισραηλ οκτω ετη. | 14 He had forty sons and thirty grandsons, who rode on seventy asses; and he judged Israel eight years. |
| 15 Και απεθανεν Αβδων ο υιος του Ελληλ ο Πιραθωνιτης? και εταφη εν Πιραθων εν γη Εφραιμ, επι το ορος Αμαληκ. | 15 Then Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died, and was buried at Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites. |
