Judges 11:8-10

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁸ The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “That is true, but now we have returned to you. Go with us and wage war against the Ammonites, and you will be the head over us and over everyone who lives in Gilead.”

⁹ Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, “If you bring me back to wage war against the Ammonites, and if the Lord hands them over to me, will I really become your head?”

¹⁰ The elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “May the Lord be a witness between us if we do not do just as you have said.”
