Judges 12:2 in Context — Judges 12
1 Y JUNTÁNDOSE los varones de Ephraim, pasaron hacia el aquilón, y dijeron á Jephté: ¿Por qué fuiste á hacer guerra contra los hijos de Ammón, y no nos llamaste para que fuéramos contigo? Nosotros quemaremos á fuego tu casa contigo.
2 Y Jephté les respondió: Yo tuve, y mi pueblo, una gran contienda con los hijos de Ammón, y os llamé, y no me defendisteis de sus manos.
3 Viendo pues que no me defendíais, puse mi alma en mi palma, y pasé contra los hijos de Ammón, y Jehová los entregó en mi mano: ¿por qué pues habéis subido hoy contra mí para pelear conmigo?
4 Y juntando Jephté á todos los varones de Galaad, peleó contra Ephraim; y los de Galaad hirieron á Ephraim, porque habían dicho: Vosotros sois fugitivos de Ephraim, vosotros sois Galaaditas entre Ephraim y Manasés.
