後來，以法蓮人召集軍隊，渡過約旦河來到撒分。他們對耶弗他說：「你為什麼不召我們一起去攻打亞捫人呢？我們要把你和你的房子一起燒掉。」

以法莲人聚集，到了北方，对耶弗他说：“你去与亚扪人争战，为什么没有招我们同去呢？我们必用火烧你和你的房屋。”

The Ephraimite forces were called out, and they crossed over to Zaphon. They said to Jephthah,“ Why did you go to fight the Ammonites without calling us to go with you? We’re going to burn down your house over your head.”

The troops of Ephraim were called out. The troops went across the Jordan River to Zaphon. When they arrived, they said to Jephthah,“ You went to fight against the Ammonites. Why didn’t you ask us to go with you? We’re going to burn down your house over your head.”

The men of Ephraim were called to arms, and they crossed to Zaphon and said to Jephthah,“ Why did you cross over to fight against the Ammonites and did not call us to go with you? We will burn your house over you with fire.”

Then the people of Ephraim mobilized an army and crossed over the Jordan River to Zaphon. They sent this message to Jephthah:“ Why didn’t you call for us to help you fight against the Ammonites? We are going to burn down your house with you in it!”

The men of Ephraim were called together and crossed the Jordan to Zaphon. They said to Jephthah,“ Why have you crossed over to fight against the Ammonites but didn’t call us to go with you? We will burn your house with you in it!”

Now the men of Ephraim were summoned, and they crossed to Zaphon; and they said to Jephthah,“ Why did you cross over to fight against the sons of Ammon without calling us to go with you? We will burn your house down on you!”

Then the men of Ephraim gathered together, crossed over toward Zaphon, and said to Jephthah,“ Why did you cross over to fight against the people of Ammon, and did not call us to go with you? We will burn your house down on you with fire!”

And the men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward; and they said unto Jephthah, Wherefore passedst thou over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thy house upon thee with fire.

The men of Ephraim were called together and crossed the Jordan to Zaphon. They said to Jephthah,“ Why have you crossed over to fight against the Ammonites but didn’t call us to go with you? We will burn your house down with you in it!”

And the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and went northward, and said unto Jephthah, Wherefore passedst thou over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didst not call us to go with thee? we will burn thine house upon thee with fire.

The Ephraimites assembled and crossed over to Zaphon. They said to Jephthah,“ Why did you go and fight with the Ammonites without asking us to go with you? We will burn your house down right over you!”

The men of Ephraim were gathered together, and passed northward; and they said to Jephthah,“ Why did you pass over to fight against the children of Ammon, and didn’t call us to go with you? We will burn your house around you with fire!”

後來，以法蓮人對基甸說：「你攻打米甸人時為什麼不召我們去？你為什麼這樣對待我們？」他們與他激烈地爭論起來。

到了第四天，他們對參孫的妻子說：「你要哄你的丈夫把謎底說出來，不然我們就把你和你父親一家全燒死。你們邀請我們來，難道是要叫我們傾家蕩產嗎？」

石頭沉，沙土重，不如愚人惹的麻煩重。暴怒固然殘酷，憤恨好比狂瀾，然而嫉妒更是無人能敵。

耶穌就問他們：「我將許多從父而來的美善之事顯給你們看，你們為了哪一件事拿石頭打我呢？」

後來，所有的以色列人來見大衛，說：「為什麼我們的弟兄猶大人偷偷地送王、王的家眷和王的部下渡河？」猶大人答道：「我們這樣做是因為王是我們的親族。你們為什麼生氣呢？難道我們吃了王的供應，得了什麼禮物嗎？」以色列人說：「但我們以色列人十個支派和王有十份的情分，你們為什麼輕視我們？難道不是我們首先提出要請王回來的嗎？」但猶大人的態度比以色列人還要強硬。

哪裡有嫉妒和自私的野心，哪裡就會有混亂和各樣的惡事。

你們彼此衝突、互相鬥毆的起因是什麼呢？不就是你們身體中不斷交戰的慾望嗎？你們貪心，得不到就去殺人。你們嫉妒，得不到就爭吵、打鬥。你們得不到是因為你們不向上帝祈求。

非利士人問：「這是誰幹的？」有人回答說：「是亭拿人的女婿參孫幹的，因為他岳父把他的妻子嫁給了他的伴郎。」非利士人就去放火燒死了參孫的妻子和岳父。

我愛他們，他們卻控告我，但我為他們禱告。

我又看見人的一切勞碌和成就原是出於爭強好勝。這也是虛空，如同捕風。
