Judges 11:7-9

Names of God Bible

⁷ But Jephthah replied to Gilead’s leaders, “Don’t you hate me? Didn’t you throw me out of my father’s house? So why are you coming to me now when you’re in trouble?”

⁸ Gilead’s leaders answered Jephthah, “The reason we’ve turned to you now is that we want you to go with us and wage war against Ammon. You will be the ruler of everyone who lives in Gilead.”

⁹ Jephthah told them, “If you take me back to fight against Ammonites and Yahweh gives them to me, I will be your leader.”
