Judges 12:3

And when I saw that you did not come to my rescue, I put my soul (my life) in my (own) hand and went over against the sons of Ammon, and the Lord (Yahweh) delivered them into my hand. Why have you come up against me to fight me today?" [The battle with the sons of Ammon had been going on for a long time before Jephthah first took it upon himself to fight them. Therefore, one may rightly wonder why the men of Ephraim are coming now, when they did not come earlier.]
