Judges 12

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	LXX
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 υιοι εφραιμ και ηλθον εις σεφινα και ειπον προς ιεφθαε τι οτι επορευθης πολεμειν εν τοις υιοις αμμων και ημας ου κεκληκας πορευθηναι μετα σου τον οικον σου εμπρησομεν 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 προς αυτους ιεφθαε ανηρ αντιδικων ημην εγω και ο λαος μου και οι υιοι αμμων εταπεινουν με σφοδρα και εβοησα προς υμας και ουκ εσωσατε με εκ 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 ειδον οτι ουκ ην ο σωζων και εθεμην την ψυχην μου εν τη χειρι μου και διεβην προς τους υιους αμμων και παρεδωκεν αυτους κυριος εν χειρι μου και ινα τι ανεβητε προς με τη ημερα ταυτη του πολεμειν εν εμοι
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 και συνηθροισεν ιεφθαε παντας τους ανδρας γαλααδ και επολεμει τον εφραιμ και επαταξαν ανδρες γαλααδ τον εφραιμ οτι ειπαν οι διασεσωσμενοι του εφραιμ υμεις γαλααδ εν μεσω εφραιμ και εν μεσω 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 προκατελαβοντο ανδρες γαλααδ τας διαβασεις του ιορδανου του εφραιμ και εγενηθη οτι ειπαν οι διασεσωσμενοι του εφραιμ διαβωμεν και ειπαν αυτοις οι ανδρες γαλααδ μη υμεις εκ του εφραιμ και ειπαν ουκ εσμεν
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 και ειπαν αυτοις ειπατε δη συνθημα και ου κατηυθυναν του λαλησαι ουτως και επελαβοντο αυτων και εσφαξαν αυτους επι τας διαβασεις του ιορδανου και επεσαν εξ εφραιμ εν τω καιρω εκεινω δυο τεσσαρακοντα χιλιαδες
7 After having judged Israel for six years, Jephthah the Gileadite died and was buried in his city in Gilead.	7 και εκρινεν ιεφθαε τον ισραηλ εξ ετη και απεθανεν ιεφθαε ο γαλααδιτης και εταφη εν τη πολει αυτου γαλααδ
8 After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.	8 και εκρινεν μετ' αυτον τον ισραηλ εσεβων εκ βαιθλεεμ
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 εγενοντο αυτω τριακοντα υιοι και τριακοντα θυγατερες εξαπεσταλμεναι εξω και τριακοντα γυναικας εισηγαγεν τοις υιοις αυτου εξωθεν και εκρινεν τον ισραηλ επτα ετη
10 Ibzan died and was buried in Bethlehem.	10 και απεθανεν εσεβων και εταφη εν βηθλεεμ
11 After him the Zebulunite Elon judged Israel. When he had judged Israel for ten years,	11 και εκρινεν μετ' αυτον τον ισραηλ αιλων ο ζαβουλωνιτης και εκρινεν 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 εν αιλιμ και εθαψαν αυτον εν γη ζαβουλων
13 After him the Pirathonite Abdon, son of Hillel, judged Israel.	13 και εκρινεν μετ' αυτον τον ισραηλ λαβδων υιος σελλημ ο φρααθωνιτης
14 He had forty sons and thirty grandsons who rode on seventy saddle-asses. After having judged Israel for eight years,	14 και εγενοντο αυτω τεσσαρακοντα υιοι και τριακοντα υιοι των υιων αυτου επιβεβηκοτες επι εβδομηκοντα πωλους και εκρινεν 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 λαβδων υιος σελλημ ο φρααθωνιτης και εταφη εν φρααθων εν γη εφραιμ εν ορει λανακ
