Shibboleth

In what book do you find the following quote? (Place your answers in the comment section.)

“Are you an Ephraimite?” When he said, “No,”
they said to him, “Then say Shibboleth,” and he said, “Sibboleth,” for he could not pronounce it right. Then they seized him and slaughtered him at the fords of the Jordan.

I guess the easy answer would be "The Bible."

But, I admit I had to look up exactly WHERE in God's Word. It is from the book of Judges, chapter 12.
