1 Entonces los efraimitas fueron convocados y cruzaron el Jordán hasta Zafón. Le dijeron a Jefté: “¿Por qué fuiste a luchar contra los amonitas sin convocarnos para que fuéramos contigo? Vamos a quemar 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 “Yo era un hombre responsable de una gran lucha”, respondió Jefté. “Yo y mi pueblo estábamos luchando contra los amonitas. Cuando te pedí ayuda, no vinieron a salvarme de ellos.
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 me di cuenta de que no iban a ayudarme, me hice cargo de mi propia vida y fui a luchar contra los amonitas, y el Señor me hizo victorioso sobre ellos. Entonces, ¿por qué han venido hoy a atacarme?” .
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 Jefté convocó a todos los hombres de Galaad y luchó contra los efraimitas. Los hombres de Galaad los mataron porque los efraimitas se burlaban de ellos, diciendo: “Ustedes los galaaditas no son más que fugitivos que viven entre Efraín y 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 tomaron el control de los vados sobre el río Jordán que conducían al territorio de Efraín, y cuando un efraimita que escapaba de la batalla venía y pedía: “Déjenme cruzar”, los galaaditas le preguntaban: “¿Eres efraimita?”; si respondían “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 le decían: “Di Shibboleth”. Y los que eran de Efraín, dirían“Sibboleth” porque ellos no podían pronunciarlo bien, y así los agarrarían y los matarían allí en los vados del Jordán. Un total de 42.000 fueron asesinados en esa ocasión.
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.
