the deeth of Iephtpah succedeth Elon. After Elon Abd&obar;.
A And the men of Ephraim geathered
them selues together, ∧ w&ebar;t northwarde,
and sayde vnto Iephthah:
note Wherfore wentest thou to fyght
with the children of Ammon, and dydest not
call vs to go with the? we will therfore burne
thine house vp&obar; þe; fyer. And Iephthah said
vnto th&ebar;: I ∧ my people were at great stryfe
&wt; the chyldren of Ammon. And when I called
you, ye delyuered me not out of their h&abar;des.
And wh&ebar; I sawe þt; ye deliuered me not,
note I &rhand; put my lyfe in my h&abar;des, ∧ w&ebar;t vp&obar;
the children of Ammon. And the Lord delyuered
them into my handes. Wherfore then
are ye come vpon me now, to fyght &wt; me?
Iephthah therfore gathered together all
the men of Gilead,
B ∧ fought &wt; þe; Ephraites
And the m&ebar; of Gilead smote the Ephraites,
because they sayd: Ye Gileadites are but r&ubar;neagates
of Ephraim am&obar;ge the Ephraites
∧ the Manassites. Moreouer, the men of Gilead
toke the passages of Iordan before the
Ephraites. And when those Ephraites that
were escaped,
C sayde: lett vs go ouer, then the
men of Gilead sayd vnto them: Art thou an
Ephraite? they sayde: naye. Then sayde they
vnto h&ibar;: then saye: &rhand; Schibboleth (whych
is by iuterpretacyon, an eare of corne.) And he sayde:
Sibboleth: for he coulde not so pronounce.
And then they toke him, and slewe hym at þe;
passages of Iordan. And there were ouerthrowen
at that tyme of the Ephraites .xlij.M.

dyed,
D and was buryed in one of the cyties of

Abezan of Bethlehem, ∧ he had .xxx. sonnes
and .xxx. daughters, whom he sent out, and
toke .xxx. other in, for his sonnes. And when

After hym, Abdon the sonne of Hellel a
Pharathonite iudged Israel. And he had .xl.
sonnes, and thirty neueus, that rode on .lxx.
asse coltes. And when Abdon the sonne of
Hellel the Pharathonite had iudged Israell
