The answer is: Her life was sacrificed to God

Judges 11:30-31 - Jephthah’s vow led to a tragic fulfillment, demonstrating the peril of impulsive promises. His daughter became an unwitting sacrifice, highlighting the importance of careful speech in prayer (Ecclesiastes 5:2). Additionally, this story echoes themes of faith and sacrifice seen in Abraham's near-sacrifice of Isaac (Genesis 22).
