Judges 12:1 CPDV

¹  And behold, a sedition rose up in Ephraim. Then, while passing by toward the north, they said to Jephthah: 'When you were going to fight against the sons of Ammon, why were you unwilling to summon us, so that we might go with you? Therefore, we will burn down your house.'

²  And he answered them: 'I and my people were in a great conflict against the sons of Ammon. And I called you, so that you might offer assistance to me. And you were not willing to do so.

³  And discerning this, I put my life in my own hands, and I crossed to the sons of Ammon, and the Lord delivered them into my hands. What am I guilty of, that you would rise up in battle against me?'
