1Mwet Ephraim elos akola in mweun, na elos fahla sasla Infacl Jordan ac som nu Zaphon ac fahk nu sel Jephthah, “Efu ku kom som mweuni mwet Ammon ac tia suli kut? Kut ac esukak lohm sum an nu fom!”
1Then the men of Ephraim assembled and crossed the Jordan to Zaphon. They said to Jephthah, “Why have you crossed over to fight the Ammonites without calling us to go with you? We will burn your house down with you inside!”
2Na Jephthah el topuk ac fahk nu selos, “Nga ac mwet luk uh tuh oru alein na yohk se nu sin mwet Ammon, ac kut pangon kowos, tuh kowos tiana tuku kasrekut.
2But Jephthah replied, “My people and I had a serious conflict with the Ammonites, and when I called, you did not save me out of their hands.
3Ke nga akilenak lah kowos ac tia kasreyu, nga pilesrala moul luk ac sifacna som ainulos, ac LEUM GOD El ase kutangla nu sik. Na efu ku kowos tuku in mweuniyu misenge?”
3When I saw that you would not save me, I risked my life and crossed over to the Ammonites, and the LORD delivered them into my hand. Why then have you come today to fight against me?”
4Ke ma inge Jephthah el pangoneni mwet Gilead nukewa ac elos som mweuni mwet Ephraim ac kutangulosla. (Mweyen mwet Ephraim elos tuh fahk ouinge, “Kowos mwet Gilead su muta in acn Ephraim ac Manasseh, kowos mwet kaing liki kut tari!”)
4Jephthah then gathered all the men of Gilead and fought against Ephraim. And the men of Gilead struck them down because the Ephraimites had said, “You Gileadites are fugitives in Ephraim, living in the territories of Ephraim and Manasseh.”
5Mwet Gilead elos sruokya acn nukewa ma mwet uh muta ut we in alukela Infacl Jordan, tuh mwet Ephraim elos in kofla kaing ut we. Mwet Ephraim se fin srike in kaingla ac siyuk elan fahla ke sie sin acn inge, na mwet Gilead elos ac siyuk sel, “Kom mwet Ephraim se?” Na el fin fahk mu “Mo,”
5The Gileadites captured the fords of the Jordan leading to Ephraim, and whenever a fugitive from Ephraim would say, “Let me cross over,” the Gileadites would ask him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” If he answered, “No,”
6na elos ac sap elan fahk kas se inge, “Shibboleth.” Tuh el fin fahk “Sibboleth,” (ke sripen mwet Ephraim uh kofla fahkla suwohs kas sac) na mwet Gilead elos ac sruokya mwet sac ac unilya na insacn, ke soko sin inkanek in foroht forma ke Infacl Jordan. Mwet Ephraim angngaul luo tausin pa anwuki in pacl sac.
6they told him, “Please say Shibboleth.” If he said, “Sibboleth,” because he could not pronounce it correctly, they seized him and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. So at that time 42,000 Ephraimites were killed.
