1 O o raggii reer Efrayimna way is-urursadeen, oo waxay u gudbeen xagga woqooyi, oo waxay Yeftaah ku yidhaahdeen, Reer Cammoon inaad la dirirto intaad u soo gudubtay, maxaad noogu yeedhi weyday aannu ku raacnee? Gurigaagaannu kugu dul gubi doonnaa.

¶ And the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together towards the Aquilon and said unto Jephthah, Why didst thou go over to fight against the sons of Ammon and didst not call us to go with thee? We will burn thy house upon thee with fire.

2 Y eftaahna wuxuu ku yidhi, Aniga iyo dadkayguba dagaal weyn baannu kula jirnay reer Cammoon, oo markaan idiin yeedhay igama aydnaan badbaadin gacantoodii.

And Jephthah replied unto them, I and my people were at great strife with the sons of Ammon, and when I called you, ye did not defend me from their hands.

3 O o markaan arkay inaydnaan i badbaadinayn ayaan naftayda biimeeyey, oo waxaan u gudbay reer Cammoon, oo Rabbigu gacantayduu soo geliyey. Haddaba maxaad maanta iigu timaadeen inaad ila dirirtaan?

Seeing, therefore, that ye did not defend me, I put my life in my hands and went over against the sons of Ammon, and the LORD delivered them into my hand. Why then have ye come up against me this day to fight with me?

4 M arkaasuu Yeftaah soo urursaday raggii reer Gilecaad oo dhan, oo wuxuu la diriray reer Efrayim; oo reer Gilecaadna way laayeen reer Efrayim, maxaa yeelay, waxay yidhaahdeen, Idinku fakad baad tihiin kuwiinnan reer Gilecaad oo ku dhex jira reer Efrayim iyo reer Manaseh.

Then Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead and fought with Ephraim; and the men of Gilead smote Ephraim because they had said, Ye are fugitives of Ephraim; ye are Gileadites among Ephraim and Manasseh.

5 O o reer Gilecaadna waxay qabsadeen meelihii Webi Urdun laga gudbi jiray oo xagga reer Efrayim ahaa; oo markuu mid reer Efrayim ah oo cararay yidhaahdo, I daaya aan gudbee, waxaa dhici jirtay inay reer Gilecaad ku odhan jireen, Ma reer Efrayim baad tahay? Oo hadduu yidhaahdo, Maya,

And the Gileadites took the passages of the Jordan from Ephraim; and it was such that when any of those of Ephraim who had escaped would say, May I pass? The men of Gilead would ask them, Art thou an Ephrathite? If he said, No;

6 w axay ku odhan jireen, Bal waxaad tidhaahdaa Shibboled, markaasuu odhan jiray, Sibboled, waayo, taas odhaahdeeda qummaati uma uu odhan karin; markaasay intay qabsadaan ku dili jireen meelihii Webi Urdun laga gudbi jiray; oo wakhtigaas waxaa reer Efrayim ka dhintay laba iyo afartan kun.

then they would say unto him, Now say Shibboleth. And he would say Sibboleth; for he could not pronounce it the same. Then they would take him and slay him at the passages of the Jordan. And at that time forty-two thousand of those of Ephraim fell.

7 O o Yeftaahna wuxuu reer binu Israa'iil xukumayay lix sannadood. Markaasuu Yeftaah oo ahaa reer Gilecaad dhintay, oo waxaa lagu aasay magaalooyinkii reer Gilecaad middood. Ibsaan, Eeloon Iyo Cabdoon

And Jephthah judged Israel six years. Then Jephthah the Gileadite died and was buried in one of the cities of Gilead.

And he had forty sons and thirty grandsons that rode on seventy he asses, and he judged Israel eight years.
