Jephthah answered,“ I and my people were engaged in a great struggle with the Ammonites, and although I called, you didn’t save me out of their hands.

Jephthah answered,“ I and my people were taking part in a great struggle. We were at war with the Ammonites. I asked you for help. But you didn’t come to save me from their power.

And Jephthah said to them,“ I and my people had a great dispute with the Ammonites, and when I called you, you did not save me from their hand.

Jephthah replied,“ I summoned you at the beginning of the dispute, but you refused to come! You failed to help us in our struggle against Ammon.

Then Jephthah said to them,“ My people and I had a bitter conflict with the Ammonites. So I called for you, but you didn’t deliver me from their power.

So Jephthah said to them,“ I and my people were in a major dispute with the sons of Ammon; and I did call you, but you did not save me from their hand.

耶弗他派遣使者去见亚扪人的王，说：“我跟你有什么关系呢？你竟到我这里来攻打我的土地呢？”亚扪人的王对耶弗他的使者说：“因以色列人从埃及上来的时候，夺了我的土地，从亚嫩河到雅博河，直到约旦河；现在你要把它和和平平地交还。”耶弗他又再派使者去见亚扪人的王，对他说：“耶弗他这样说：‘以色列人并没有夺取过摩押地和亚扪人的土地。以色列人从埃及上来的时候，是走过旷野到红海，到了加低斯；就派遣使者去见以东王，说：求你让我们经过你的领土。以东王却不答应；又派遣使者去见摩押王，摩押王也不肯；以色列人就住在加低斯。以后，他们走过旷野，绕过以东地和摩押地，到了摩押地的东边，在亚嫩河那边安营；他们并没有进入摩押境内，因为亚嫩河是摩押的边界。以色列人又派遣使者去见亚摩利人的王西宏，就是希实本王，对他说：求你让我们经过你的领土，到我们自己的地方去。西宏却不信任以色列人，不让他们经过他的境界；西宏聚集了他所有的人民，在雅杂安营，与以色列人争战。耶和华以色列的神，把西宏和他所有的人民都交在以色列人手中，以色列人击杀了他们，夺取了住在那地的亚摩利人的全地，占领了亚摩利人四周的境界，从亚嫩河到雅博河，从旷野直到约旦河。现在耶和华以色列的神，已经把亚摩利人从他的子民以色列人面前赶走了，你竟要占有这地吗？你不是应占有你的神基抹要你占有的地吗？我们不是应占有耶和华我们的神，从我们面前赶走的人的一切地吗？现在难道你比摩押王西拨的儿子巴勒还强吗？他曾经与以色列人争竞吗？或是与以色列人交战过吗？以色列人住在希实本和属希实本的村镇，亚罗珥和亚罗珥的村镇，以及亚嫩河沿岸的一切城市，已经有三百年了；在这时期内，你们为什么没有夺回这些地方呢？我没有得罪你，你竟恶待我，攻打我；愿审判者耶和华今日在以色列人和亚扪人中间，判断是非。’”但亚扪人的王不听从耶弗他差派人去对他所说的话。那时耶和华的灵临到耶弗他身上，他就经过基列和玛拿西，经过基列的米斯巴，又从基列的米斯巴去到亚扪人那里。耶弗他向耶和华许愿，说：“如果你真的把亚扪人交在我手里，我从亚扪人那里平平安安回来的时候，无论谁先从我的家门出来迎接我，他就必归耶和华，我也必把他当作燔祭。”于是耶弗他去到亚扪人那里攻打他们，耶和华把他们交在他手里。于是他从亚罗珥开始击杀他们，去到米匿，直到亚备勒．基拉明，共二十座城，是一场大击杀；这样，亚扪人就在以色列人面前被制伏了。
