Judges 12:1 in Context — Judges 12
1 E juntando-se os homens de Efraim, passaram até o norte, e disseram a Jefté: Por que foste a fazer guerra contra os filhos de Amom, e não nos chamaste para que fôssemos contigo? Nós queimaremos a fogo tua casa contigo.
2 E Jefté lhes respondeu: Eu tive, e meu povo, uma grande contenda com os filhos de Amom, e vos chamei, e não me defendestes de suas mãos.
3 Vendo pois que não me defendíeis, pus minha alma em minha palma, e passei contra os filhos de Amom, e o SENHOR os entregou em minha mão: por que pois subistes hoje contra mim para lutar comigo?
