Judges 11:27-29

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁷ I therefore have not sinned against you, but you are doing me wrong by making war against me; ^(A)may the Lord, the Judge, judge today between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon.’” ²⁸ But the king of the sons of Ammon ^[a]disregarded the message which Jephthah sent him.

Jephthah’s Tragic Vow

²⁹ Now ^(B)the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jephthah, so that he passed through Gilead and Manasseh; then he passed through Mizpah of Gilead, and from Mizpah of Gilead he went on to the sons of Ammon.
