Judges 11:26-28

Expanded Bible

²⁶ For three hundred years the Israelites have lived in Heshbon and Aroer and the towns around them and in all the cities along the Arnon River. Why have you not taken these cities back in all that time? ²⁷ I have not sinned against you, but you are sinning against me by making war on me. May the Lord, the Judge, decide today whether the ·Israelites [^Lsons/^Tchildren of Israel] or the Ammonites [^Lsons/descendants of Ammon] are right.”

²⁸ But the king of the ·Ammonites [^Lsons/descendants of Ammon] ·ignored [would not listen to] this message from Jephthah.
