    4It was some time after this when the Ammonites fought with Israel.

    5When the Ammonites attacked, the leaders of Gilead asked Jephthah to come back from the land of Tob.

    6They said,“Come, be our commander, so we can fight with the Ammonites.”

    7Jephthah said to the leaders of Gilead,“But you hated me and made me leave my father’s house. Why do you come to me now, when you are in trouble?”

    8The leaders of Gilead said to Jephthah,“That may be true, but now we pledge to you our loyalty. Come with us and fight with the Ammonites. Then you will become the leader of all who live in Gilead.”

    9Jephthah said to the leaders of Gilead,“All right! If you take me back to fight with the Ammonites and the LORD gives them to me, I will be your leader.”

    10The leaders of Gilead said to Jephthah,“The LORD will judge any grievance you have against us, if we do not do as you say.”

    11So Jephthah went with the leaders of Gilead. The people made him their leader and commander. Jephthah repeated the terms of the agreement before the LORD in Mizpah.

    12Jephthah Gives a History Lesson Jephthah sent messengers to the Ammonite king, saying,“Why have you come against me to attack my land?”

    13The Ammonite king said to Jephthah’s messengers,“Because Israel stole my land when they came up from Egypt– from the Arnon River in the south to the Jabbok River in the north, and as far west as the Jordan. Now return it peaceably!”

    14Jephthah sent messengers back to the Ammonite king

    15and said to him,“This is what Jephthah says,‘Israel did not steal the land of Moab and the land of the Ammonites.

    30Jephthah made a vow to the LORD, saying,“If you really do hand the Ammonites over to me,

    31then whoever is the first to come through the doors of my house to meet me when I return safely from fighting the Ammonites– he will belong to the LORD and I will offer him up as a burnt sacrifice.”

    32Jephthah approached the Ammonites to fight with them, and the LORD handed them over to him.

    33He defeated them from Aroer all the way to Minnith– twenty cities in all, even as far as Abel Keramim! He wiped them out! The Israelites humiliated the Ammonites.
