Jordan, and whenever Ephraimite fugitives said, 'Let

me cross,' the men of Gilead would ask, 'Are you an

Ephraimite?' If he said, 'No,' they then said, 'Very well,

because he could not pronounce it, then they would

seize him and kill him by the fords of the Jordan.

Forty-two thousand Ephraimites fell on this

occasion.
