Judges 11:8
Therefore - Being sensible that we have done thee injury, we come now to make thee full reparation.
6 Then they said to Jephthah, “Come and be our commander, that we may fight against the people of Ammon.”
7 So Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, a“Did you not hate me, and expel me from my father’s house? Why have you come to me now when you are in1 distress?”
8 aAnd the elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “That is why we have bturned again to you now, that you may go with us and fight against the people of Ammon, and be cour head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.”
9 So Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, “If you take me back home to fight against the people of Ammon, and the Lord delivers them to me, shall I be your head?”
10 And the elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, a“The Lord will be a witness between us, if we do not do according to your words.”
