OET-LV: 6 And_they_said to_him/it say please Shibboleth and_he/it_said Sibboleth and_not he_gave_attention to_speak right and_they_seized him and_they_slaughtered_him to the_fords_of the_Yardēn and_it_fell at_time (the)_that of_ʼEfrayim forty and_two thousand. (JDG_12:6)

OET-RV: 6 then they’d demand, “Now say: Shibboleth.” But if he said “Sibboleth” because he didn’t have time to think to pronounce it correctly, they would seize him and would slaughter him at those crossing places of the Yordan. Forty-two thousand from Efrayim fell at that time. (JDG 12:6)
