7 Jephthah said to them, "Didn't you hate me and drive me from my father's house? Why do you come to me now, when you're in trouble?"
8 The elders of Gilead said to him, "Nevertheless, we are turning to you now; come with us to fight the Ammonites, and you will be our head over all who live in Gilead."
9 Jephthah answered, "Suppose you take me back to fight the Ammonites and the LORD gives them to me-will I really be your head?"
10 The elders of Gilead replied, "The LORD is our witness; we will certainly do as you say."
11 So Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and commander over them. And he repeated all his words before the LORD in Mizpah.
12 Then Jephthah sent messengers to the Ammonite king with the question: "What do you have against us that you have attacked our country?"
11:10And the elders of Gilead said unto Jephthah, The LORD be witness between us, if we do not so according to thy words.
11:10They answered him: The Lord who heareth these things, he himself is mediator and witness that we will do as we have promised.
11:10And the elders of Gilead said unto Jephthah, Jehovah shall be witness between us; surely according to thy word so will we do.
11:10And the elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, |The LORD will be witness between us; we will surely do as you say.|

11:10And the elders of Gilead say unto Jephthah, 'Jehovah is hearkening between us — if according to thy word we do not so.'
