1 Entonces los varones de Efraín fueron convocados, cruzaron hacia Safón y dijeron a Jefté: ¿Por qué fuiste a luchar contra los hijos de Amón y no nos llamaste para ir contigo? ¡Incendiaremos tu casa contigo dentro!
1 The men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward; and they said to Jephthah, “Why did you pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didn’t call us to go with you? We will burn your house around you with fire!”
2 Jefté les respondió: Yo y mi pueblo tuvimos una gran contienda contra los hijos de Amón. Los convoqué a ustedes, pero no me [auxiliaron para] librarnos de su mano.
2 Jephthah said to them, “I and my people were at great strife with the children of Ammon; and when I called you, you didn’t save me out of their hand.
3 Cuando vi que ustedes no me defenderían, arriesgué mi vida y pasé contra los hijos de Amón. Yavé los entregó en mi mano. ¿Por qué se levantan hoy a pelear contra mí?
3 When I saw that you didn’t save me, I put my life in my hand, and passed over against the children of Ammon, and Yahweh delivered them into my hand. Why then have you come up to me today, to fight against me?”
4 Entonces Jefté reunió a todos los varones de Galaad y peleó contra Efraín. Y los hombres de Galaad derrotaron a Efraín, porque [éstos] dijeron: ¡Ustedes, los galaaditas, son fugitivos de Efraín, en medio de Efraín y de Manasés!
4 Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead, and fought with Ephraim. The men of Gilead struck Ephraim, because they said, “You are fugitives of Ephraim, you Gileadites, in the middle of Ephraim, and in the middle of Manasseh.”
5 Los galaaditas capturaron los vados del Jordán que están frente a Efraín. Y sucedía que cuando cualquiera de los fugitivos de Efraín decía: Voy a pasar, los hombres de Galaad le preguntaban: ¿Eres tú efrateo? Y si él respondía: No,
5 The Gileadites took the fords of the Jordan against the Ephraimites. Whenever a fugitive of Ephraim said, “Let me go over,” the men of Gilead said to him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” If he said, “No;”
6 entonces le decían: Dí ahora, Shibolet. Y él decía Sibolet, porque no podía pronunciar así. Entonces le echaban mano y lo degollaban en los vados del Jordán. Y en aquel tiempo cayeron 42.000 de Efraín.
6 then they said to him, “Now say ‘Shibboleth;’” and he said “Sibboleth”; for he couldn’t manage to pronounce it correctly, then they seized him and killed him at the fords of the Jordan. At that time, forty-two thousand of Ephraim fell.
