1Jephthah el sie mwet mweun Gilead su ku ac pulaik. Nina kial uh sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal, ac papa tumal pa Gilead.
1Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a mighty man of valour, and he was the son of a harlot; and Gilead begot Jephthah.
2Oasr pac wen natul Gilead sin mutan kial ah, na ke tulik mukul inge matula elos lusulla Jephthah liki lohm sin papa tumalos ac fahk, “Kom ac fah tia usrui kutena ma lun papa tumasr, mweyen kom ma nutin siena mutan.”
2And Gilead's wife bore him sons; and when his wife's sons grew up, they drove out Jephthah, and said unto him: 'Thou shalt not inherit in our father's house; for thou art the son of another woman.'
3Na Jephthah el kaingla liki tamulel lal ac som muta in acn Tob. Ac ke el muta we, un mwet lusrongten se tuku nu yorol ac welul forfor in acn sac.
3Then Jephthah fled from his brethren, and dwelt in the land of Tob; and there were gathered vain fellows to Jephthah, and they went out with him.
4Tok kutu, na mwet Ammon elos tuku in mweuni mwet Israel.
4And it came to pass after a while, that the children of Ammon made war against Israel.
5Ke ma inge sikyak ah, mwet kol lun acn Gilead elos som in folokunulma Jephthah liki acn Tob.
5And it was so, that when the children of Ammon made war against Israel, the elders of Gilead went to fetch Jephthah out of the land of Tob.
6Elos fahk nu sel, “Fahsru kol kut, tuh kut in ku in mweuni mwet Ammon.”
6And they said unto Jephthah: 'Come and be our chief, that we may fight with the children of Ammon.'
7A Jephthah el fahk nu selos, “Kowos tuh lisyula liki lohm sin papa tumuk ke sripen kowos tuh arulana srungayu. Na efu kowos ku sukyu inge ke kowos sun ongoiya?”
7And Jephthah said unto the elders of Gilead: 'Did not ye hate me, and drive me out of my father's house? and why are ye come unto me now when ye are in distress?'
8Elos fahk nu sel Jephthah, “Kut sifilpa foroht nu sum inge mweyen kut lungse kom in wi kut mweuni mwet Ammon, ac kol mwet Gilead nukewa.”
8And the elders of Gilead said unto Jephthah: 'Therefore are we returned to thee now, that thou mayest go with us, and fight with the children of Ammon, and thou shalt be our head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.'
9Jephthah el topuk ac fahk, “Kowos fin folokinyu nu yen sik tuh nga in mweuni mwet Ammon, ac LEUM GOD El fin ase kutangla nu sik, na nga fah mwet kol lowos.”
9And Jephthah said unto the elders of Gilead: 'If ye bring me back home to fight with the children of Ammon, and the LORD deliver them before me, I will be your head.'
10Ac elos topuk ac fahk, “Kut insese ke ma kom fahk an, ac LEUM GOD El mwet loh lasr.”
10And the elders of Gilead said unto Jephthah: 'The LORD shall be witness between us; surely according to thy word so will we do.'
11Na Jephthah el wi mwet kol lun mwet Gilead inge, ac mwet uh elos akfulatyal ac oru tuh elan mwet kol lalos ac leum faclos. Ac Jephthah el fahkak nunak lal nukewa ye mutun LEUM GOD in acn Mizpah.
11Then Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and chief over them; and Jephthah spoke all his words before the LORD in Mizpah.
12Na Jephthah el supwala mwet utuk kas nu yurin tokosra lun mwet Ammon ke kas se inge, “Sripa fuka se kom tuku lain kut kac an— Efu kom utyak nu in acn sesr uh?”
12And Jephthah sent messengers unto the king of the children of Ammon, saying: 'What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come unto me to fight against my land?'
13Ac tokosra lun mwet Ammon el topuk mwet utuk kas lal Jephthah ac fahk, “Ke mwet Israel elos tuku liki acn Egypt elos tuku twe eisla facl sik, mutawauk ke Infacl Arnon fahla nwe Infacl Jabbok ac sun Infacl Jordan. Inge kowos enenu in folokonma acn inge nufon ke misla.”
13And the king of the children of Ammon answered unto the messengers of Jephthah: 'Because Israel took away my land, when he came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even unto the Jabbok, and unto the Jordan; now therefore restore those cities peaceably.'
14Na Jephthah el sifil supwala mwet utuk kas nu yurin tokosra lun mwet Ammon,
14And Jephthah sent messengers again unto the king of the children of Ammon;
15ke kas se inge, “Tia pwaye lah mwet Israel elos eisla facl Moab ku facl Ammon.
15and he said unto him: 'Thus saith Jephthah: Israel took not away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon.
16Pa inge ma tuh sikyak ah. Ke mwet Israel elos tuku liki acn Egypt elos fahsr sasla yen mwesis nwe ke elos sun inalok ke Meoa Srusra ac tuku nu Kadesh.
16But when they came up from Egypt, and Israel walked through the wilderness unto the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh;
17Na elos supwala mwet utuk kas nu yurin tokosra lun mwet Edom in siyuk tuh elan fuhlela elos in fahla sasla facl sel ah. Tuh tokosra sac el tuh tia fuhlela. Na elos siyuk pac sin tokosra lun mwet Moab, tuh el tia pacna lela elos in fahla in acn sel. Ouinge mwet Israel elos mutana in acn Kadesh.
17then Israel sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying: Let me, I pray thee, pass through thy land; but the king of Edom hearkened not. And in like manner he sent unto the king of Moab; but he would not; and Israel abode in Kadesh.
18Na elos fahsrna ke yen mwesis, ac ut sisken facl Edom ac Moab nwe ke elos sun kutulap in Moab, nu lefahl eir in Infacl Arnon. Elos tui we, tia tupalla Infacl Arnon mweyen pa ingan masrol nu Moab.
18Then he walked through the wilderness, and compassed the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and they pitched on the other side of the Arnon; but they came not within the border of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab.
19Na mwet Israel elos supwala mwet utuk kas nu yorol Sihon, tokosra lun mwet Amor in acn Heshbon, ac siyuk elan lela elos in fahsr sasla facl sel nu in acn selos sifacna.
19And Israel sent messengers unto Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said unto him: Let us pass, we pray thee, through thy land unto my place.
20Na Sihon el tia pac lela mwet Israel in fahsr sasla facl sel. El sap mwet mweun lal nukewa in fahsreni ac muta in acn Jahaz, na elos mweun lain mwet Israel.
20But Sihon trusted not Israel to pass through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and pitched in Jahaz, and fought against Israel.
21Tusruktu LEUM GOD lun Israel El oru tuh mwet Israel in kutangulla Sihon ac mwet mweun lal. Na mwet Israel elos eisla acn nukewa sin mwet Amor su muta in facl sac tuh in ma lalos.
21And the LORD, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them; so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country.
22Elos sruokya facl sin mwet Amor nukewa, mutawauk Infacl Arnon su masrol nu eir, utyak nwe ke Infacl Jabbok layen nu epang, ac liki yen mwesis su masrol kutulap, fahla nwe ke Infacl Jordan layen nu roto.
22And they possessed all the border of the Amorites, from the Arnon even unto the Jabbok, and from the wilderness even unto the Jordan.
23LEUM GOD lun Israel pa tuh lusak mwet Amor inge ac sang facl sac nu sin mwet Israel, mwet lal.
23So now the LORD, the God of Israel, hath dispossessed the Amorites from before His people Israel, and shouldest thou possess them?
24Ya kom ac srike in sifilpa eis facl se inge tuh in ma lom— Kom ku in sruokya kutena acn ma Chemosh, god lom, el tuh sot nu sum. A kut, kut ac sruokya acn nukewa ma LEUM GOD lasr El eisla in ma lasr.
24Wilt not thou possess that which Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess? So whomsoever the LORD our God hath dispossessed from before us, them will we possess.
25Mea, kom nunku mu kom fas lukel Balak, wen natul Zippor, tokosra lun mwet Moab— Ya oasr pacl Balak el akukuin lain mwet Israel, ku mweun lain kut?
25And now art thou any thing better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them?
26Oasr yac tolfoko lac mwet Israel elos sruokya acn Heshbon ac Aroer ac inkul ma oan raunela, oayapa siti nukewa su oan sisken Infacl Arnon. Efu ku kom tia eisla acn inge ke pacl na loeloes se ingan?
26While Israel dwelt in Heshbon and its towns, and in Aroer and its towns, and in all the cities that are along by the side of the Arnon, three hundred years; wherefore did ye not recover them within that time?
27Tia nga pa orekma koluk nu sum uh. Kom pa orekma koluk ke kom mweun lainyu. Misenge LEUM GOD El ac fah oru nununku lal inmasrlon mwet Israel ac mwet Ammon.”
27I therefore have not sinned against thee, but thou doest me wrong to war against me; the LORD, the Judge, be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon.'
28Tusruktu, tokosra lun mwet Ammon el tia lohang nu ke kas inge ma Jephthah el supwala nu yorol.
28Howbeit the king of the children of Ammon hearkened not unto the words of Jephthah which he sent him.
29Na ngunin LEUM GOD tuku nu facl Jephthah. El fahsr sasla in acn Gilead ac Manasseh, ac folokla nu Mizpah in acn Gilead ac som nu Ammon.
29Then the spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of Ammon.
30Ac Jephthah el orala sie wulela nu sin LEUM GOD ac fahk, “Kom fin oru tuh nga in kutangla mwet Ammon,
30And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said: 'If Thou wilt indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand,
31na mwet se emeet su ilme liki lohm sik ac sunyu ke nga ac kutangla foloko, nga ac fah kisakin nu sum, tuh in mwe kisa firir.”
31then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, it shall be the LORD'S, and I will offer it up for a burnt-offering.'
32Ouinge Jephthah el fahla sasla Infacl Arnon in mweuni mwet Ammon, ac LEUM GOD El sang kutangla nu sel.
32So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hand.
33El tuh mweunelos, mutawauk in acn Aroer fahla rauneak acn Minnith, su oasr siti longoul we, nwe ke el sun acn Abel Keramim. Mwet puspis anwuki ke mweun se inge, na mwet Israel elos kutangla mwet Ammon.
33And he smote them from Aroer until thou come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and unto Abel-cheramim, with a very great slaughter. So the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.
34Ke Jephthah el folok nu yen sel in acn Mizpah, acn se natul ah el illa in sonol. El srital ke sie tambourine ac onsrosro. El tulik sefanna natul, wangin pac tulik saya.
34And Jephthah came to Mizpah unto his house, and, behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances; and she was his only child; beside her he had neither son nor daughter.
35Ke Jephthah el liyal el arulana asor ac seya nuknuk lal, ac fahk, “We, acn nutik! Sripom pa oru ngan pula keok upa nu in ngunik inge! Foroti na pwaye insiuk keim, mweyen nga tuh orala wulela na ku se nu sin LEUM GOD ac nga tia ku in kunausla!”
35And it came to pass, when he saw her, that he rent his clothes, and said: 'Alas, my daughter! thou hast brought me very low, and thou art become my troubler; for I have opened my mouth unto the LORD, and I cannot go back.'
36Ac tulik mutan sac fahk nu sel, “Kom fin orala tari sie wulela nu sin LEUM GOD , oru nu sik ma kom wulela kac an, mweyen LEUM GOD El tuh kasrekom in foloksak nu sin mwet lokoalok lom, mwet Ammon uh.
36And she said unto him: 'My father, thou hast opened thy mouth unto the LORD; do unto me according to that which hath proceeded out of thy mouth; forasmuch as the LORD hath taken vengeance for thee of thine enemies, even of the children of Ammon.'
37Tusruktu, oasr sie ma nga enenu sum: filiyula nga in wi kawuk luk som mutwata fineol uh malem luo, in asorkin lah nga ac misa tia payuk.”
37And she said unto her father: 'Let this thing be done for me: let me alone two months, that I may depart and go down upon the mountains, and bewail my virginity, I and my companions.'
38Na Jephthah el fahk elan som ke lusen malem luo. Na acn sac wi mutan kawuk lal elos som nu fineol uh, ac tung mweyen el ac misa ac tia payuk ku isus tulik.
38And he said: 'Go.' And he sent her away for two months; and she departed, she and her companions, and bewailed her virginity upon the mountains.
39Tukun malem luo el foloko nu yurin papa tumal. Jephthah el oru nu sel oana ma el tuh wulela nu sin LEUM GOD , na mutan sac el misa, tiana payuk. Pa inge mutaweyen facsin se inge,
39And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed; and she had not known man. And it was a custom in Israel,
40ma mutan Israel uh ac som liki lohm selos ke lusen len akosr pacl se ke yac nukewa, in asor ac oru mwe esmakin lalos ke acn natul Jephthah, mwet Gilead.
40that the daughters of Israel went yearly to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in a year.
