Why have you come to me now when you are in distress? 8 And the elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, Therefore we return to you now, that you may go with us, and fight against the children of Ammon, and be our head over all the inhabitants of Gilead. 9 And Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, If you bring me home again to fight against the children of Ammon, and the LORD delivers them before me, shall I be your head? 10 And the elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, The LORD be witness between us, if we do not do according to your words. 11 Then Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and captain over them: and Jephthah spoke all his words before the LORD in Mizpeh. 12 And Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What have you to do with me, that you have come against me to fight in my land? 13 And the king of the children of Ammon answered the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even to Jabbok, and to Jordan: now therefore restore those lands peacefully. 14 And Jephthah sent messengers again to the king of the children of Ammon: 15 And said to him, Thus says Jephthah, Israel took not away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon: 16 But when Israel came up from Egypt, and walked through the wilderness to the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh; 17 Then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray you, pass through your land: but the king of Edom would not listen. And in like manner they sent to the king of Moab: but he would not consent: and Israel stayed in Kadesh. 18 Then they went through the wilderness, and bypassed the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and camped on the other side of Arnon, but did not enter the border of Moab: for Arnon was the border of Moab. 19 And Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said to him, Let us pass, we pray you, through your land to my place. 20 But Sihon trusted not Israel to pass through his territory: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and camped in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. 21 And the LORD God of Israel delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they defeated them: so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. 22 And they possessed all the borders of the Amorites, from Arnon even to Jabbok, and from the wilderness even to Jordan. 23 So now the LORD God of Israel has dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and should you possess it? 24 Will you not possess that which Chemosh your god gives you to possess? So whoever the LORD our God drives out from before us, them will we possess. 25 And now, are you any better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them, 26 While Israel lived in Heshbon and her towns, and in Aroer and her towns, and in all the cities that are along the coasts of Arnon, three hundred years? Why did you not recover them within that time? 27 Therefore I have not sinned against you, but you do wrong to war against me: let the LORD the Judge be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. 28 However, the king of the children of Ammon did not listen to the words of Jephthah which he sent him. 29 Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he advanced towards the children of Ammon. 30 And Jephthah vowed a vow to the LORD, and said, If you will indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hands, 31 Then it shall be, that whatever comes out of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the LORD'S, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering. 32 So Jephthah advanced towards the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hands. 33 And he struck them from Aroer until you come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and to the plain of the vineyards, with a very great slaughter. Thus the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.
  • 2 Sam 10:1-9 : 1 And it happened after this that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his place. 2 Then David said, I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness to me. So David sent to comfort him by the hand of his servants for his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon. 3 And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, Do you think that David honors your father, that he has sent comforters to you? Has not David rather sent his servants to you to search the city, and to spy it out, and to overthrow it? 4 Therefore Hanun took David's servants, shaved off half of their beards, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away. 5 When they told David, he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed: and the king said, Stay at Jericho until your beards have grown, and then return. 6 And when the children of Ammon saw that they had become odious to David, the children of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Bethrehob, and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and of king Maacah a thousand men, and of Ishtob twelve thousand men. 7 And when David heard of it, he sent Joab and all the host of the mighty men. 8 And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the gate: and the Syrians of Zoba, and of Rehob, and Ishtob, and Maacah, were by themselves in the field. 9 When Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind, he chose all the elite men of Israel, and set them in array against the Syrians. 10 And the rest of the people he entrusted to the hand of Abishai his brother, that he might set them in array against the children of Ammon. 11 And he said, If the Syrians are too strong for me, then you shall help me: but if the children of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will come to help you. 12 Be of good courage, and let us be valiant for our people, and for the cities of our God: and the LORD do what seems good to him. 13 And Joab drew near, and the people who were with him, to the battle against the Syrians: and they fled before him. 14 And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians had fled, they also fled before Abishai, and entered into the city. So Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.

Then Israel will inherit those who were his heirs, says the LORD. 3 Howl, O Heshbon, for Ai is destroyed: cry out, you daughters of Rabbah, clothe yourselves with sackcloth; mourn, and run to and fro by the hedges; for their king will go into captivity, and his priests and his princes together. 4 Why do you boast in the valleys, your flowing valley, O backsliding daughter? Who trusted in her treasures, saying, Who will come against me? 5 Behold, I will bring fear upon you, says the Lord GOD of hosts, from all those who are round about you; and you will be driven out every man straight forward; and no one will gather him that wanders. 6 And afterward I will bring again the captivity of the children of Ammon, says the LORD.
