How shall we do
H802
for wives
H3498
for them that remain,
H7650
seeing we have sworn
H3068
by Jehovah
H5414
that we will not give
H1323
them of our daughters
H802
to wives?
8
H559
And they said,
H259
What one
H7626
is there of the tribes
H3478
of Israel
H5927
that came not up
H3068
unto Jehovah
H4709
to Mizpah?
H935
And, behold, there came
H376
none
H4264
to the camp
H3003
from Jabesh-gilead
H6951
to the assembly.
9
H5971
For when the people
H6485
were numbered,
H376
behold, there were none
H3427
of the inhabitants
H3003
of Jabesh-gilead there.
10
H5712
And the congregation
H7971
sent
H8147
thither twelve
H505
thousand
H376
men
H1121
of the valiantest,
H6680
and commanded
H559
them, saying,
H3212
Go
H5221
and smite
H3427
the inhabitants
H3003
of Jabesh-gilead
H6310
with the edge
H2719
of the sword,
H802
with the women
H2945
and the little ones.
11
H1697
And this is the thing
H6213
that ye shall do:
H2763
ye shall utterly destroy
H2145
every male,
H802
and every woman
H4904
that hath lain
H3045
by man.
12
H4672
And they found
H3427
among the inhabitants
H3003
of Jabesh-gilead
H702
four
H3967
hundred
H5291
young
H1330
virgins,
H3045
that had not known
H376
man
H4904
by lying
H2145
with him;
H935
and they brought
H4264
them unto the camp
H7887
to Shiloh,
H776
which is in the land
H3667
of Canaan.
13
H5712
And the whole congregation
H7971
sent
H1696
and spake
H1121
to the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H5553
that were in the rock
H7417
of Rimmon,
H7121
and proclaimed
H7965
peace unto them.
14
H1144
And Benjamin
H7725
returned
H6256
at that time;
H5414
and they gave
H802
them the women
H2421
whom they had saved alive
H802
of the women
H3003
of Jabesh-gilead:
H4672
and yet so they sufficed them not.
15
H5971
And the people
H5162
repented
H1144
them for Benjamin,
H3068
because that Jehovah
H6213
had made
H6556
a breach
H7626
in the tribes
H3478
of Israel.
16
H2205
Then the elders
H5712
of the congregation
H559
said,
H6213
How shall we do
H802
for wives
H3498
for them that remain,
H802
seeing the women
H8045
are destroyed
H1144
out of Benjamin?
17
H559
And they said,
H3425
There must be an inheritance
H6413
for them that are escaped
H1144
of Benjamin,
H7626
that a tribe
H4229
be not blotted
H3478
out from Israel.
18
H3201
Howbeit we may
H5414
not give
H802
them wives
H1323
of our daughters,
H1121
for the children
H3478
of Israel
H7650
had sworn,
H559
saying,
H779
Cursed
H5414
be he that giveth
H802
a wife
H1144
to Benjamin.
19
H559
And they said,
H2282
Behold, there is a feast
H3068
of Jehovah
H3117
from year to year
H7887
in Shiloh,
H6828
which is on the north
H1008
of Beth-el,
H6828
on the east side
H4546
of the highway
H5927
that goeth up
H1008
from Beth-el
H7927
to Shechem,
H5045
and on the south
H3829
of Lebonah.
20
H6680
And they commanded
H1121
the children
H1144
of Benjamin,
H559
saying,
H3212
Go
H693
and lie in wait
H3754
in the vineyards,
21
H7200
and see,
H1323
and, behold, if the daughters
H7887
of Shiloh
H3318
come out
H2342
to dance
H4246
in the dances,
H3318
then come ye out
H3754
of the vineyards,
H2414
and catch
H376
you every man
H802
his wife
H1323
of the daughters
H7887
of Shiloh,
H1980
and go
H776
to the land
H1144
of Benjamin.
22
H1
And it shall be, when their fathers
H251
or their brethren
H935
come
H7378
to complain
H559
unto us, that we will say
H2603
unto them, Grant them graciously
H3947
unto us, because we took
H376
not for each man
H802
of them his wife
H4421
in battle,
H5414
neither did ye give
H6256
them unto them, else
H816
would ye now be guilty.
23
H1121
And the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H6213
did so,
H5375
and took
H802
them wives,
H4557
according to their number,
H2342
of them that danced,
H1497
whom they carried
H3212
off: and they went
H7725
and returned
H5159
unto their inheritance,
H1129
and built
H5892
the cities,
H3427
and dwelt in them.
