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.

Then the men of Ephraim got ready for war. They crossed over to Zaphon and said to Jephthah, “Why did you cross over to fight the men of Ammon without calling us to go with you? With fire we will burn down your house with you in it.”

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

Jephthah said to them, “I and my people were having much trouble with the people of Ammon. I did call you, but you did not take me away from them.

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?

I saw that you would not help me, so I took my life in my hands. I crossed over to fight the people of Ammon. And the Lord gave them into my hand. So why have you come today to fight against 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 all the men of Gilead and fought Ephraim. The men of Gilead won the war against Ephraim, because Ephraim said, “You people of Gilead are not respected 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,

The people of Gilead took the crossing places of the Jordan beside Ephraim. When any of the Ephraimite men ran away and said, “Let me cross over,” the men of Gilead would say to him, “Are you an Ephraimite?” 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.

they would say to him, “Then say ‘Shibboleth.’” But he would say, “Sibboleth,” for he could not say it right. So they would take hold of him and kill him at the crossing places of the Jordan. At that time 42, 000 men of Ephraim were killed.
