V.1 Now the men 376 of Israel 3478 had sworn 7650-8 in Mizpeh, 4709 saying, 559-2 There shall not any 376 of us give 5414-4 his daughter 1323 unto Benjamin 1144 to wife. 802

21:2 And the people 5971 came 935-4 to the house of God, 1008 and abode 3427-4 there till even 6153 before 6440 God, 430 and lifted up 5375-4 their voices, 6963 and wept 1058-4 sore; 1065 1419

21:3 And said, 559-4 O LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel, 3478 why is this come to pass in Israel, 3478 that there should be to day 3117 one 259 tribe 7626 lacking 6485-9 in Israel? 3478

21:4 And it came to pass on the morrow, 4283 that the people 5971 rose early, 7925-55 and built 1129-4 there an altar, 4196 and offered 5927-55 burnt offerings 5930 and peace offerings. 8002

21:5 And the children 1121 of Israel 3478 said, 559-4 Who [is there] among all the tribes 7626 of Israel 3478 that came not up 5927-1 with the congregation 6951 unto the LORD? 3068 For they had made a great 1419 oath 7621 concerning him that 834 came not up 5927-1 to the LORD 3068 to Mizpeh, 4709 saying, 559-2 He shall surely 4191-2 be put to death. 4191-93

21:6 And the children 1121 of Israel 3478 repented 5162-11 them for Benjamin 1144 their brother, 251 and said, 559-4 There is one 259 tribe 7626 cut off 1438-8 from Israel 3478 this day. 3117

21:7 How shall we do 6213-4 for wives 802 for them that remain, 3498-12 seeing we have sworn 7650-8 by the LORD 3068 that we will not give 5414-2 them of our daughters 1323 to wives? 802

21:8 And they said, 559-4 What one 259 [is there] of the tribes 7626 of Israel 3478 that came not up 5927-1 to Mizpeh 4709 to the LORD? 3068 And, behold, there came 935-1 none 376 to the camp 4264 from Jabeshgilead 3003 1568 to the assembly. 6951

21:9 For the people 5971 were numbered, 6485-101 and, behold, [there were] none 376 of the inhabitants 3427-6 of Jabeshgilead 3003 1568 there.

21:10 And the congregation 5712 sent 7971-4 thither twelve 8147 6240 thousand 505 men 376 of the valiantest, 1121 2428 and commanded 6680-17 them, saying, 559-2 Go 3212-3 and smite 5221-52 the inhabitants 3427-6 of Jabeshgilead 3003 1568 with the edge 6310 of the sword, 2719 with the women 802 and the children. 2945

21:11 And this [is] the thing 1697 that ye shall do, 6213-4 Ye shall utterly destroy 2763-55 every male, 2145 and every woman 802 that hath 3045-6 lain 4904 by man. 2145

21:12 And they found 4672-4 among the inhabitants 3427-6 of Jabeshgilead 3003 1568 four 702 hundred 3967 young 5291 virgins, 1330 that had known 3045-1 no man 376 by lying 4904 with any male: 2145 and they brought 935-55 them unto the camp 4264 to Shiloh, 7887 which [is] in the land 776 of Canaan. 3667

21:13 And the whole congregation 5712 sent 7971-4 [some] to speak 1696-17 to the children 1121 of Benjamin 1144 that [were] in the rock 5553 Rimmon, 7417 and to call 7121-4 peaceably 7965 unto them.

21:14 And Benjamin 1144 came again 7725-4 at that time; 6256 and they gave 5414-4 them wives 802 which they had saved alive 2421-14 of the women 802 of Jabeshgilead: 3003 1568 and yet so they sufficed 4672-1 them not.

21:15 And the people 5971 repented 5162-12 them for Benjamin, 1144 because that the LORD 3068 had made 6213-1 a breach 6556 in the tribes 7626 of Israel. 3478

21:16 Then the elders 2205 of the congregation 5712 said, 559-4 How shall we do 6213-4 for wives 802 for them that remain, 3498-12 seeing the women 802 are destroyed 8045-8 out of Benjamin? 1144

21:17 And they said, 559-4 [There must be] an inheritance 3425 for them that be escaped 6413 of Benjamin, 1144 that a tribe 7626 be not destroyed 4229-11 out of Israel. 3478

21:18 Howbeit we may 3201-4 not give 5414-2 them wives 802 of our daughters: 1323 for the children 1121 of Israel 3478 have sworn, 7650-8 saying, 559-2 Cursed 779-7 [be] he that giveth 5414-6 a wife 802 to Benjamin. 1144

21:19 Then they said, 559-4 Behold, [there is] a feast 2282 of the LORD 3068 in Shiloh 7887 yearly 3117 3117 [in a place] which [is] on the north 6828 side of Bethel, 1008 on the east side 4217 8121 of the highway 4546 that goeth up 5927-6 from Bethel 1008 to Shechem, 7927 and on the south 5045 of Lebonah. 3829

21:20 Therefore they commanded 6680-17 the children 1121 of Benjamin, 1144 saying, 559-2 Go 3212-3 and lie in wait 693-1 in the vineyards; 3754

21:21 And see, 7200-1 and, behold, if the daughters 1323 of Shiloh 7887 come out 3318-4 to dance 2342-2 in dances, 4246 then come ye out 3318-1 of the vineyards, 3754 and catch 2414-1 you every man 376 his wife 802 of the daughters 1323 of Shiloh, 7887 and go 1980-1 to the land 776 of Benjamin. 1144

21:22 And it shall be, when their fathers 1 or their brethren 251 come 935-4 unto us to complain, 7378-2 that we will say 559-1 unto them, Be favourable 2603-3 unto them for our sakes: because we reserved 3947-1 not to each man 376 his wife 802 in the war: 4421 for ye did not give 5414-1 unto them at this time, 6256 [that] ye should be guilty. 816-4

21:23 And the children 1121 of Benjamin 1144 did 6213-4 so, and took 5375-4 [them] wives, 802 according to their number, 4557 of them that danced, 2342-35 whom they caught: 1497-1 and they went 3212-4 and returned 7725-4 unto their inheritance, 5159 and repaired 1129-4 the cities, 5892 and dwelt 3427-4 in them.

21:24 And the children 1121 of Israel 3478 departed 1980-101 thence at that time, 6256 every man 376 to his tribe 7626 and to his family, 4940 and they went out 3318-4 from thence every man 376 to his inheritance. 5159

21:25 In those days 3117 [there was] no king 4428 in Israel: 3478 every man 376 did 6213-4 [that which was] right 3477 in his own eyes. 5869
