Jephthah Warns the King of Ammon
12 Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the Ammonites with this message: “What is the problem between the Ammonites and the Israelites? Why have you come to fight in our land?”
13 The king of the Ammonites said to the messengers of Jephthah, “We are fighting Israel because the Israelites took our land when they came up from Egypt. They took our land from the Arnon River to the Jabbok River to the Jordan River. Now, tell the Israelites to give our land back to us without fighting for it.”
14 So the messengers of Jephthah took this message back to Jephthah.[a] Then Jephthah sent the messengers to the king of the Ammonites again.
