12:6 [hgb] 就 对 他 说 ， 你 说 示 播 列 。 。 以 法 莲 人 因 为 咬 不 真 字 音 ， 便 说 西 播 列 。 基 列 人 就 将 他 拿 住 ， 杀 在 约 旦 河 的 渡 口 。 那 时 以 法 莲 人 被 杀 的 有 四 万 二 千 人 。
[kjv] Then said they unto him, Say now Shibboleth: and he said Sibboleth: for he could not frame to pronounce it right. Then they took him, and slew him at the passages of Jordan: and there fell at that time of the Ephraimites forty and two thousand.
[bbe] Then they said to him, Now say Shibboleth; and he said Sibboleth, and was not able to say it in the right way; then they took him and put him to death at the crossing-places of Jordan; and at that time forty-two thousand Ephraimites were put to death.
