And the king of the children of Ammon answered unto the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land, when they came up out of Egypt, from Arnon even unto Jabbok, and unto Jordan: now therefore restore those lands again peaceably.
El rey de los amonitas respondió a los mensajeros de Jefté: 'Israel tomó mi tierra cuando salieron de Egipto, todo el territorio desde el río Arnón hasta el río Jaboc y hasta el río Jordán. Ahora devuelvan esas tierras pacíficamente.'
El rey amonita reclamó que Israel había tomado sus tierras y exigió que se las devolvieran.
