Judges 12:4-15

⁴ And Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead, and fighteth with Ephraim, and the men of Gilead smite Ephraim, because they said, 'Fugitives of Ephraim 'are' ye Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim—in the midst of Manasseh.' ⁵ And Gilead captureth the passages of the Jordan to Ephraim, and it hath been, when 'any of' the fugitives of Ephraim say, 'Let me pass over,' and the men of Gilead say to him, 'An Ephramite thou?' and he saith, 'No;' ⁶ that they say to him, 'Say, I pray thee, Shibboleth;' and he saith, 'Sibboleth,' and is not prepared to speak right—and they seize him, and slaughter him at the passages of the Jordan, and there fall at that time, of Ephraim, forty and two chiefs. ⁷ And Jephthah judged Israel six years, and Jephthah the Gileadite dieth, and is buried in 'one of' the cities of Gilead.
