Judges 12

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	GREEK BIBLE
1 The men of Ephraim gathered together and crossed over to Zaphon. They said to Jephthah, "Why do you go on to fight with the Ammonites without calling us to go with you? We will burn your house over you."	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.
2 Jephthah answered them, "My soldiers and I were engaged in a critical contest with the Ammonites. I summoned you, but you did not rescue me from their power.	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?
3 When I saw that you would not effect a rescue, I took my life in my own hand and went on to the Ammonites, and the LORD delivered them into my power. Why, then, do you come up against me this day to fight with me?"	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;
4 Then Jephthah called together all the men of Gilead and fought against Ephraim, whom they defeated; for the Ephraimites had said, "You of Gilead are Ephraimite fugitives in territory belonging to Ephraim and Manasseh."	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.
5 The Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan toward Ephraim. When any of the fleeing Ephraimites said, "Let me pass," the men of Gilead would say to him, "Are you an Ephraimite?" If he answered, "No!"	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,
6 they would ask him to say "Shibboleth." If he said "Sibboleth," not being able to give the proper pronunciation, they would seize him and kill him at the fords of the Jordan. Thus forty-two thousand Ephraimites fell at that time.	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.
7 After having judged Israel for six years, Jephthah the Gileadite died and was buried in his city in Gilead.	7 Και εκρινεν ο Ιεφθαε τον Ισραηλ εξ ετη. Και απεθανεν ο Ιεφθαε ο Γαλααδιτης και εταφη εν πολει τινι της Γαλααδ.
8 After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.	8 Και μετ' αυτον εκρινε τον Ισραηλ Αβαισαν ο εκ Βηθλεεμ.
9 He had thirty sons. He also had thirty daughters married outside the family, and he brought in as wives for his sons thirty young women from outside the family. After having judged Israel for seven years,	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.
10 Ibzan died and was buried in Bethlehem.	10 Και απεθανεν ο Αβαισαν και εταφη εν Βηθλεεμ.
11 After him the Zebulunite Elon judged Israel. When he had judged Israel for ten years,	11 Και μετ' αυτον εκρινε τον Ισραηλ Αιλων ο Ζαβουλωνιτης? και εκρινε τον Ισραηλ δεκα ετη.
12 the Zebulunite Elon died and was buried in Elon in the land of Zebulun.	12 Και απεθανεν Αιλων ο Ζαβουλωνιτης και εταφη εις Αιαλων εν τη γη Ζαβουλων.
13 After him the Pirathonite Abdon, son of Hillel, judged Israel.	13 Και μετ' αυτον εκρινε τον Ισραηλ Αβδων, ο υιος του Ελληλ, ο Πιραθωνιτης.
14 He had forty sons and thirty grandsons who rode on seventy saddle-asses. After having judged Israel for eight years,	14 Και ειχε τεσσαρακοντα υιους και τριακοντα εγγονους, επιβαινοντας επι εβδομηκοντα πωλαρια? και εκρινε τον Ισραηλ οκτω ετη.
15 the Pirathonite Abdon, son of Hillel, died and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim on the mountain of the Amalekites.	15 Και απεθανεν Αβδων ο υιος του Ελληλ ο Πιραθωνιτης? και εταφη εν Πιραθων εν γη Εφραιμ, επι το ορος Αμαληκ.
