And they took possession of all the territory of the Emorites, from the Arnon even unto the Yabbok, and from the wilderness even unto the Jordan.

And Yiphthach made a vow unto the Lord, and said, If thou wilt indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand, 
Then shall it be, that whatsoever cometh forth out of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall belong to the Lord, and I will offer it up for a burntoffering.

And it came to pass, when he saw her, that he rent his garments, and said, Alas, my daughter! thou hast bent me down very low, and thou art one of those that trouble me; for I have opened my mouth unto the Lord, and I cannot go back.

And she said unto her father, Let this thing be done for me: Let me alone two months, that I may descend to the mountains, and bewail my virginity, I with my companions. 
And he aid, Go. And he sent her away for two months: and she went with her companions, and bewailed her virginity on the mountains.
