12 And he sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, to say in his name, What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come against me, to waste my land?
13 And he answered them: I Because Israel took away my land when he came up out of Egypt, from the confines of the Arnon unto the Jaboc and the Jordan: now therefore restore the same peaceably to me.

New International Version
11 So Jephthah went with the elders(A) of Gilead, and the people made him head and commander over them. And he repeated(B) all his words before the Lord in Mizpah.(C)
12 Then Jephthah sent messengers to the Ammonite king with the question: “What do you have against me that you have attacked my country?”
13 The king of the Ammonites answered Jephthah’s messengers, “When Israel came up out of Egypt, they took away my land from the Arnon(D) to the Jabbok,(E) all the way to the Jordan. Now give it back peaceably.”
