士师记-Judges 第 12 章

12:1	以法莲人被召集，过河到了撒分，对耶弗他说，你过去攻打亚扪人，为什么没有召我们同去呢？我们必用火烧你和你的房屋。 Then the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and they crossed over to Zaphon and said to Jephthah, Why did you cross over to fight against the children of Ammon and not call us to go with you? We will burn your house down over you.
12:2	耶弗他对他们说，我和我的民与亚扪人极力奋战；我向你们呼救，你们竟没有来救我脱离他们的手。 And Jephthah said to them, I and my people were in great strife with the children of Ammon; but when I called out to you, you did not save me from their hand.
12:3	我见你们不来救我，就不顾性命，过去攻击亚扪人；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？ So when I saw that there would be no help from you, I put my life in my own hand and crossed over to the children of Ammon; and Jehovah delivered them into my hand. So why have you come up against me this day to fight against me?
12:4	于是耶弗他招聚基列众人，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。 And Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead together and fought with Ephraim. And the men of Gilead struck Ephraim because they said, You are fugitives from Ephraim, O Gilead, in the midst of Ephraim and Manasseh.
12:5	基列人把守约但河的渡口，不让以法莲人过去。以法莲逃走的人若说，让我过去，基列人就问他说，你是以法莲人不是？他若说，不是， And the Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. And when a fugitive of Ephraim said, Let me cross over, the men of Gilead would say to him, Are you an Ephraimite? And if he said, No,
12:6	就对他说，你说示播列。以法莲人因为咬不准字音，便说西播列。基列人就将他拿住，杀在约但河的渡口。那时以法莲人被杀的有四万二千。 They would say to him, Then say, Shibboleth. And he would say, Sibboleth; for he could not say it correctly. Then they would seize him and slay him at the fords of the Jordan. And at that time forty-two thousand of Ephraim fell.
12:7	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。 And Jephthah judged Israel six years. And Jephthah the Gileadite died and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.
12:8	耶弗他以后，有伯利恒的以比赞作以色列的士师。 Then after him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel.
12:9	他有三十个儿子，三十个女儿；女儿都嫁到外乡去。他给众子从外乡娶了三十个女子为妻。他作以色列的士师七年。 And he had thirty sons; and he sent out thirty daughters abroad and brought in thirty foreign daughters from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.
12:10	以比赞死了，葬在伯利恒。 And Ibzan died and was buried in Bethlehem.
12:11	以比赞之后，有西布伦人以伦，作以色列的士师十年。 Then after him Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel. And he judged Israel ten years.
12:12	西布伦人以伦死了，葬在西布伦地的亚雅仑。 And Elon the Zebulunite died and was buried in Aijalon in the land of Zebulun.
12:13	以伦之后，有比拉顿人希列的儿子押顿作以色列的士师。 Then after him Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.
12:14	他有四十个儿子，三十个孙子，骑着七十匹驴。押顿作以色列的士师八年。 And he had forty sons and thirty grandsons, who rode upon seventy donkeys. And he judged Israel eight years.
12:15	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。 And Abdon the son of Hillel the Pirathonite died and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the hill country of the Amalekites.
