H1121
And the sons
H3478
of Israel
H5162 [H8735]
sighed
H1144
for Benjamin
H251
their brother,
H559 [H8799]
and said,
H259
There is one
H7626
tribe
H1438 [H8738]
cut off
H3478
from Israel
H3117
this day.
7
H6213 [H8799]
How shall we do
H802
for wives
H3498 [H8737]
for them that remain,
H7650 [H8738]
seeing we have sworn
H3068
by the LORD
H5414 [H8800]
that we will not give
H1323
them of our daughters
H802
for wives?
8
H559 [H8799]
And they said,
H259
What one
H7626
is there of the tribes
H3478
of Israel
H5927 [H8804]
that came not up
H4709
to Mizpeh
H3068
to the LORD?
H935 [H8804]
And, behold, there came
H376
none
H4264
to the camp
H3003 H1568
from Jabeshgilead
H6951
to the congregation.
9
H5971
For the people
H6485 [H8691]
were numbered,
H376
and, behold, there were none
H3427 [H8802]
of the inhabitants
H3003 H1568
of Jabeshgilead there.
10
H5712
And the company
H7971 [H8799]
sent
H8147 H6240
there twelve
H505
thousand
H376
men
H1121 H2428
of the most valiant,
H6680 [H8762]
and commanded
H559 [H8800]
them, saying,
H3212 [H8798]
Go
H5221 [H8689]
and smite
H3427 [H8802]
the inhabitants
H3003 H1568
of Jabeshgilead
H6310
with the edge
H2719
of the sword,
H802
with the women
H2945
and the children.
11
H1697
And this is the thing
H6213 [H8799]
that ye shall do,
H2763 [H8686]
Ye shall utterly seclude
H2145
every male,
H802
and every woman
H4904
that hath lain
H3045 [H8802]
by man.
12
H4672 [H8799]
And they found
H3427 [H8802]
among the inhabitants
H3003 H1568
of Jabeshgilead
H702
four
H3967
hundred
H5291
young
H1330
virgins,
H3045 [H8804]
that had known
H376
no man
H4904
by lying
H2145
with any male:
H935 [H8686]
and they brought
H4264
them to the camp
H7887
to Shiloh,
H776
which is in the land
H3667
of Canaan.
13
H3605
And the whole
H5712
company
H7971 [H8799]
sent
H1696 [H8762]
some to speak
H1121
to the sons
H1144
of Benjamin
H5553
that were in the rock
H7417
Rimmon,
H7121 [H8799]
and to call
H7965
peaceably to them.
14
H1144
And Benjamin
H7725 [H8799]
came again
H6256
at that time;
H5414 [H8799]
and they gave
H802
them wives
H2421 [H8765]
which they had saved alive
H802
of the women
H3003 H1568
of Jabeshgilead:
H4672 [H8804]
and yet so they sufficed them not.
15
H5971
And the people
H5162 [H8737]
sighed
H1144
for Benjamin,
H3068
because the LORD
H6213 [H8804]
had made
H6556
a breach
H7626
in the tribes
H3478
of Israel.
16
H2205
Then the elders
H5712
of the company
H559 [H8799]
said,
H6213 [H8799]
How shall we do
H802
for wives
H3498 [H8737]
for them that remain,
H802
seeing the women
H8045 [H8738]
are desolated
H1144
out of Benjamin?
17
H559 [H8799]
And they said,
H3425
There must be an inheritance
H6413
for them that have escaped
H1144
of Benjamin,
H7626
that a tribe
H4229 [H8735]
be not wiped
H3478
out of Israel.
18
H3201 [H8799]
But we may
H5414 [H8800]
not give
H802
them wives
H1323
of our daughters:
H1121
for the sons
H3478
of Israel
H7650 [H8738]
have sworn,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H779 [H8803]
Cursed
H5414 [H8802]
be he that giveth
H802
a wife
H1144
to Benjamin.
19
H559 [H8799]
Then they said,
H2282
Behold, there is a feast
H3068
of the LORD
H7887
in Shiloh
H3117
yearly
H6828
in a place which is on the north side
H1008
of Bethel,
H4217 H8121
on the east side
H4546
of the highway
H5927 [H8802]
that goeth up
H1008
from Bethel
H7927
to Shechem,
H5045
and on the south
H3829
of Lebonah.
20
H6680 [H8762]
Therefore they commanded
H1121
the sons
H1144
of Benjamin,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H3212 [H8798]
Go
H693 [H8804]
and lie in wait
H3754
in the vineyards;
21
H7200 [H8804]
And see,
H1323
and, behold, if the daughters
H7887
of Shiloh
H3318 [H8799]
come out
H2342 [H8800]
to dance
H4246
in dances,
H3318 [H8804]
then come ye out
H3754
of the vineyards,
H2414 [H8804]
and catch
H376
you every man
H802
his wife
H1323
of the daughters
H7887
of Shiloh,
H1980 [H8804]
and go
H776
to the land
H1144
of Benjamin.
22
H1
And it shall be, when their fathers
H251
or their brethren
H935 [H8799]
come
H7378 [H8800]
to us to complain,
H559 [H8804]
that we will say
H2603 [H8798]
to them, Be favourable
H3947 [H8804]
to them for our sakes: because we reserved
H376
not to each man
H802
his wife
H4421
in the war:
H5414 [H8804]
for ye did not give
H6256
to them at this time,
H816 [H8799]
that ye should be guilty.
23
H1121
And the sons
H1144
of Benjamin
H6213 [H8799]
did so,
H5375 [H8799]
and took
H802
them wives,
H4557
according to their number,
H2342 [H8789]
of them that danced,
H1497 [H8804]
whom they caught:
H3212 [H8799]
and they went
H7725 [H8799]
and returned
H5159
to their inheritance,
H1129 [H8799]
and repaired
H5892
the cities,
H3427 [H8799]
and dwelt in them.
