Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1But behold there arose a sedition in Ephraim. And passing towards the north, they said to Jephte: When thou wentest to fight against the children of Ammon, why wouldst thou not call us, that we might go with thee? Therefore we will burn thy house.
1以法莲 人聚集，到了北方，对 耶弗他 说：「你去与 亚扪 人争战，为什么没有招我们同去呢？我们必用火烧你和你的房屋。」
2And he answered them: I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon: and I called you to assist me, and you would not do it.
2耶弗他 对他们说：「我和我的民与 亚扪 人大大争战；我招你们来，你们竟没有来救我脱离他们的手。
3And when I saw this, I put my life in my own hands, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and the Lord delivered them into my hands. What have I deserved, that you should rise up to fight against me?
3我见你们不来救我，我就拚命前去攻击 亚扪 人，耶和华将他们交在我手中。你们今日为什么上我这里来攻打我呢？」
4Then calling to him all the men of Galaad, he fought against Ephraim: and the men of Galaad defeated Ephraim, because he had said: Galaad is a fugitive of Ephraim, and dwelleth in the midst of Ephraim and Manasses.
4于是 耶弗他 招聚 基列 人，与 以法莲 人争战。 基列 人击杀 以法莲 人，是因他们说：「你们 基列 人在 以法莲 、 玛拿西 中间，不过是 以法莲 逃亡的人。」
5And the Galaadites secured the fords of the Jordan, by which Ephraim was to return. And when any one of the number of Ephraim came thither in the flight, and said: I beseech you let me pass: the Galaadites said to him: Art thou not an Ephraimite? If he said: I am not:
5基列 人把守 约旦河 的渡口，不容 以法莲 人过去。 以法莲 逃走的人若说：「容我过去。」 基列 人就问他说：「你是 以法莲 人不是？」他若说：「不是」，
6They asked him: Say then, Scibboleth, which is interpreted, An ear of corn. But he answered, Sibboleth, not being able to express an ear of corn by the same letter. Then presently they took him and killed him in the very passage of the Jordan. And there fell at that time of Ephraim two and forty thousand.
6就对他说：「你说『示播列』。」 以法莲 人因为咬不真字音，便说「西播列」。 基列 人就将他拿住，杀在 约旦河 的渡口。那时 以法莲 人被杀的有四万二千人。
7And Jephte the Galaadite judged Israel six years: and he died, and was buried in his city of Galaad.
7耶弗他 作 以色列 的士师六年。 基列 人 耶弗他 死了，葬在 基列 的一座城里。
8After him Abesan of Bethlehem judged Israel:
8耶弗他 以后，有 伯利恒 人 以比赞 作 以色列 的士师。
9He had thirty sons, and as many daughters, whom he sent abroad, and gave to husbands, and took wives for his sons of the same number, bringing them into his house. And he judged Israel seven years:
9他有三十个儿子，三十个女儿；女儿都嫁出去了。他给众子从外乡娶了三十个媳妇。他作 以色列 的士师七年。
10And he died, and was buried in Bethlehem.
10以比赞 死了，葬在 伯利恒 。

12And he died, and was buried in Zabulon.
12西布伦 人 以伦 死了，葬在 西布伦 地的 亚雅 。
13After him Abdon, the son of Illel, a Pharathonite, judged Israel:

14And he had forty sons, and of them thirty grandsons, mounted upon seventy ass colts, and he judged Israel eight years:
14他有四十个儿子，三十个孙子，骑着七十匹驴驹。 押顿 作 以色列 的士师八年。
15And he died, and was buried in Pharathon in the land of Ephraim, in the mount of Amalech.
15比拉顿 人 希列 的儿子 押顿 死了，葬在 以法莲 地的 比拉顿 ，在 亚玛力 人的山地。
