1 Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a brave warrior. His mother was a prostitute, but Gilead was his father. 2 Gilead's wife also gave him sons. When his wife's sons grew up, they made Jephthah leave and said to him, |You are not going to inherit any of our father's wealth, because you are another woman's son.| 3 So Jephthah left his half-brothers and lived in the land of Tob. Lawless men joined Jephthah's gang and traveled with him. Judges 11:1-3, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
