Why then have you come up to me this day, to fight against me?"H7200H3467H7760H5315H3709H5674H1121H5983H3068H5414H3027H5927H3117H38984Then Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead and fought Ephraim; and the men of Gilead defeated Ephraim, because they said, "You are fugitives of Ephraim, O Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim [and] in the midst of Manasseh."H3316H6908H582H1568H3898H669H582H1568H5221H669H559H1568H6412H669H8432H669H8432H45195And the Gileadites captured the fords of the Jordan opposite Ephraim.
