Judges 11:29-33

New International Version

²⁹ Then the Spirit^(A) of the Lord came on Jephthah. He crossed Gilead and Manasseh, passed through Mizpah^(B) of Gilead, and from there he advanced against the Ammonites.^{(C) 30} And Jephthah made a vow^(D) to the Lord: “If you give the Ammonites into my hands, ³¹ whatever comes out of the door of my house to meet me when I return in triumph^(E) from the Ammonites will be the Lord’s, and I will sacrifice it as a burnt offering.^(F)”

³² Then Jephthah went over to fight the Ammonites, and the Lord gave them into his hands. ³³ He devastated twenty towns from Aroer to the vicinity of Minnith,^(G) as far as Abel Keramim. Thus Israel subdued Ammon.
