If he said "Sibboleth," not being able to pronounce it correctly, they would seize him and slaughter him there at the fords of the Jordan River. At that time forty-two thousand of the Ephraimites were killed. Then they would grab him and kill him there at one of the Jordan River crossings. They would tell him to say "Shibboleth." But he would say "Sibboleth," because he could not pronounce it correctly. And there fell at that time of Ephraim two and forty thousand. Then presently they took him and killed him in the very passage of the Jordan. But he answered, Sibboleth, not being able to express an ear of corn by the same letter. They asked him: Say then, Scibboleth, which is interpreted, An ear of corn. Altogether, 42,000 men from Ephraim were killed in the battle and at the Jordan. The guards would then tell them to say "Shibboleth," because they knew that people of Ephraim could say "Sibboleth," but not "Shibboleth." If the man said "Sibboleth," the guards would grab him and kill him right there. Then they said to him, Say now Stachys and he did not rightly pronounce it so: and they took him, and slew him at the fords of Jordan and there fell at that time of Ephraim two and forty thousand. They were saying to him: “Say ‘shebla’” he said “Sebla” because he was not able to speak in this way, and they took him and they killed him at the crossing of Jordan, and there fell at that time forty and two thousand from Aphreim
And there fell at that time of Ephraim forty and two thousand.
