And the Spirit of Jehovah was on Jephthah. And he passed through Gilead and Manasseh, and passed through Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed on to the sons of Ammon.
And the Spirit of Jehovah came upon him. And he went down to Ashkelon and struck thirty men of them, and took their plunder. And he gave the changes to those who told the riddle; and his anger burned. And he went up to his father’s house.
And his brothers and all his father’s house came down and lifted him up and brought him up. And they buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol, in the burying place of his father Manoah. And he judged Israel twenty years.
And the sons of Dan sent out of their family five men from their whole number, men, sons of strength, from Zorah and from Eshtaol, to spy out the land, and to search it. And they said to them, Go, search the land. And they came to the hills of Ephraim, to Micah’s house, and lodged there.
And the Spirit of Jehovah was put on him, and he judged Israel. And he went out to war, and Jehovah gave Chushanrishathaim the king of Mesopotamia into his hand. And his hand had power over Chushan-rishathaim.
