The Book of Judges, Chapter 12ΚΡΙΤΑΙ ΙΒ′

καὶ ἐβόησεν ἀνὴρ Εφραιμ καὶ παρῆλθαν εἰς βορρᾶν καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς Ιεφθαε διὰ τί παρῆλθες παρατάξασθαι ἐν υἱοῖς Αμμων καὶ ἡμᾶς οὐ κέκληκας πορευθῆναι μετὰ σοῦ τὸν οἶκόν σου ἐμπρήσομεν ἐπὶ σὲ ἐν πυρί

And the men of Ephraim were called out and crossed northward and said to Jephthah, 'Why did you cross over to fight against the sons of Ammon, and you did not call us to go with you? We will burn your house over you with fire.'

καὶ εἶπεν Ιεφθαε πρὸς αὐτούς ἀνὴρ μαχητὴς ἤμην ἐγὼ καὶ ὁ λαός μου καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Αμμων σφόδρα καὶ ἐβόησα ὑμᾶς καὶ οὐκ ἐσώσατέ με ἐκ χειρὸς αὐτῶν

And Jephthah said to them, 'I was a man of strife, I and my people, and the sons of Ammon greatly oppressed me; and I called out to you, and you did not save me from their hand.'

καὶ εἶδον ὅτι οὐκ εἶ σωτήρ καὶ ἔθηκα τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐν χειρί μου καὶ παρῆλθον πρὸς υἱοὺς Αμμων καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοὺς κύριος ἐν χειρί μου καὶ εἰς τί ἀνέβητε ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ταύτῃ παρατάξασθαι ἐν ἐμοί

'And I saw that you were no deliverer, and I put my life in my own hand and crossed over against the sons of Ammon, and the LORD gave them into my hand. So why have you come up against me this day to fight against me?'

καὶ συνέστρεψεν Ιεφθαε τοὺς πάντας ἄνδρας Γαλααδ καὶ παρετάξατο τῷ Εφραιμ καὶ ἐπάταξαν ἄνδρες Γαλααδ τὸν Εφραιμ ὅτι εἶπαν οἱ διασῳζόμενοι τοῦ Εφραιμ ὑμεῖς Γαλααδ ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ Εφραιμ καὶ ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ Μανασση

And Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead and fought with Ephraim; and the men of Gilead struck down Ephraim, because the fugitives of Ephraim said, 'You Gileadites are in the midst of Ephraim and in the midst of Manasseh.'

καὶ προκατελάβετο Γαλααδ τὰς διαβάσεις τοῦ Ιορδάνου τοῦ Εφραιμ καὶ εἶπαν αὐτοῖς οἱ διασῳζόμενοι Εφραιμ διαβῶμεν καὶ εἶπαν αὐτοῖς οἱ ἄνδρες Γαλααδ μὴ Εφραθίτης εἶ καὶ εἶπεν οὔ

And Gilead seized beforehand the fords of the Jordan against Ephraim; and when the fugitives of Ephraim said to them, 'Let us cross,' the men of Gilead would say to him, 'Are you an Ephraimite?' and he would say, 'No.'

καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ εἰπὸν δὴ στάχυς καὶ οὐ κατεύθυνεν τοῦ λαλῆσαι οὕτως καὶ ἐπελάβοντο αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔθυσαν αὐτὸν πρὸς τὰς διαβάσεις τοῦ Ιορδάνου καὶ ἔπεσαν ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἀπὸ Εφραιμ τεσσαράκοντα δύο χιλιάδες

And they said to him, 'Say now, "ear of grain"'; and he did not manage to pronounce it so, and they seized him and slaughtered him at the fords of the Jordan. And there fell at that time of Ephraim forty-two thousand.

καὶ ἔκρινεν Ιεφθαε τὸν Ισραηλ ἑξήκοντα ἔτη καὶ ἀπέθανεν Ιεφθαε ὁ Γαλααδίτης καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν πόλει αὐτοῦ ἐν Γαλααδ

And Jephthah judged Israel sixty years; and Jephthah the Gileadite died and was buried in his city in Gilead.

καὶ ἔκρινεν μετ᾿ αὐτὸν τὸν Ισραηλ Αβαισαν ἀπὸ Βαιθλεεμ

And after him Ibzan from Bethlehem judged Israel.

καὶ ἦσαν αὐτῷ τριάκοντα υἱοὶ καὶ τριάκοντα θυγατέρες ἃς ἐξαπέστειλεν ἔξω καὶ τριάκοντα θυγατέρας εἰσήνεγκεν τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ ἔξωθεν καὶ ἔκρινεν τὸν Ισραηλ ἑπτὰ ἔτη

And he had thirty sons and thirty daughters, whom he sent away abroad, and thirty daughters he brought in from outside for his sons; and he judged Israel seven years.

καὶ ἀπέθανεν Αβαισαν καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν Βαιθλεεμ

And Ibzan died and was buried in Bethlehem.

καὶ ἔκρινεν μετ᾿ αὐτὸν τὸν Ισραηλ Αιλωμ ὁ Ζαβουλωνίτης δέκα ἔτη

And after him Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel ten years.

καὶ ἀπέθανεν Αιλωμ ὁ Ζαβουλωνίτης καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν Αιλωμ ἐν γῇ Ζαβουλων

And Elon the Zebulunite died and was buried in Elon in the land of Zebulun.

καὶ ἔκρινεν μετ᾿ αὐτὸν τὸν Ισραηλ Αβδων υἱὸς Ελληλ ὁ Φαραθωνίτης

And after him Abdon son of Hillel the Pirathonite judged Israel.

καὶ ἦσαν αὐτῷ τεσσαράκοντα υἱοὶ καὶ τριάκοντα υἱῶν υἱοὶ ἐπιβαίνοντες ἐπὶ ἑβδομήκοντα πώλους καὶ ἔκρινεν τὸν Ισραηλ ὀκτὼ ἔτη

And he had forty sons and thirty grandsons who rode on seventy colts; and he judged Israel eight years.

καὶ ἀπέθανεν Αβδων υἱὸς Ελληλ ὁ Φαραθωνίτης καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν Φαραθωμ ἐν γῇ Εφραιμ ἐν ὄρει τοῦ Αμαληκ

And Abdon son of Hillel the Pirathonite died and was buried in Pirathon in the land of Ephraim, in the mountain of Amalek.
