And it came to pass, when he saw her, that he rent his clothes, and said, Alas, my daughter! thou hast brought me very low, and thou art one of them that trouble me: for I have opened my mouth unto the LORD, and I cannot go back.
Cuando la vio, se desgarró las vestiduras y gritó: '¡Ay, hija mía! Me has quebrantado completamente, y tú eres la causa de mi gran dolor. Hice una promesa al SEÑOR, y no puedo romperla.'
Jefté se lamentó profundamente al darse cuenta de que su promesa al SEÑOR afectaría trágicamente a su propia hija.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Jephthah was a judge of Israel who made a foolish vow before battle, promising to sacrifice whatever came out of his house first if God gave him victory. When his only daughter came out to celebrate his triumph, he realized the devastating consequence of his hasty promise. This story reflects the ancient Near Eastern practice of making vows to deities, though such human sacrifice was forbidden by God's law.
