34 But Jephthah came to his house at (A)Mizpah, and behold, his daughter was coming out to meet him (B)with tambourines and with dancing. And she was his one and only child; besides her he had no son or daughter. 35 So when he saw her, he tore his clothes and said, “Oh, my daughter! You have brought me disaster, and you are among those who trouble me; for I have [a]given my word to the Lord, and (C)I cannot take it back.” 36 So she said to him, “My father, you have [b]given your word to the Lord; (D)do to me just as [c]you have said, since the Lord has brought you vengeance on your enemies, the sons of Ammon.”
