1
Now the
men
of
Israel
had
sworn
in
Mizpeh
,
saying
, There shall not any of us
give
his
daughter
unto
Benjamin
to
wife
.
21
:
2
And the
people
came
to the
house
of
God
, and
abode
there
till
even before
God
, and
lifted
up their
voices
, and
wept
sore
;
21
:
3
And
said
,
O
LORD
God
of
Israel
, why is this
come
to
pass
in
Israel
, that there should be to
day
one
tribe
lacking
in
Israel
?
21
:
4
And it
came
to
pass
on the
morrow
, that the
people
rose
early
, and
built
there an
altar
, and
offered
burnt
offerings
and
peace
offerings
.
21
:
5
And the
children
of
Israel
said
, Who is there among all the
tribes
of
Israel
that
came
not up with the
congregation
unto the
LORD
? For they had made a
great
oath
concerning
him that
came
not up to the
LORD
to
Mizpeh
,
saying
, He shall
surely
be
put
to
death
.
21
:
6
And the
children
of
Israel
repented
them for
Benjamin
their
brother
, and
said
, There is one
tribe
cut
off from
Israel
this
day
.
21
:
7
How shall we do for
wives
for them that
remain
,
seeing
we have
sworn
by the
LORD
that we will not
give
them of our
daughters
to
wives
?
21
:
8
And they
said
, What one is there of the
tribes
of
Israel
that
came
not up to
Mizpeh
to the
LORD
? And,
behold
, there
came
none to the
camp
from
Jabeshgilead
to the
assembly
.
21
:
9
For the
people
were
numbered
, and,
behold
, there were none of the
inhabitants
of
Jabeshgilead
there.
21
:
10
And the
congregation
sent
thither
twelve
thousand
men
of the
valiantest
, and
commanded
them,
saying
,
Go
and
smite
the
inhabitants
of
Jabeshgilead
with the
edge
of the
sword
, with the
women
and the
children
.
21
:
11
And this is the
thing
that ye shall do, Ye shall
utterly
destroy
every
male
, and every
woman
that hath
lain
by
man
.
21
:
12
And they found among the
inhabitants
of
Jabeshgilead
four
hundred
young
virgins
, that had
known
no
man
by
lying
with any
male
: and they
brought
them unto the
camp
to
Shiloh
, which is in the
land
of
Canaan
.
21
:
13
And the whole
congregation
sent
some to
speak
to the
children
of
Benjamin
that were in the
rock
Rimmon
, and to
call
peaceably
unto them.
21
:
14
And
Benjamin
came
again at that
time
; and they
gave
them
wives
which they had
saved
alive
of the
women
of
Jabeshgilead
: and yet so they
sufficed
them not.
21
:
15
And the
people
repented
them for
Benjamin
, because that the
LORD
had made a
breach
in the
tribes
of
Israel
.
21
:
16
Then the
elders
of the
congregation
said
, How shall we do for
wives
for them that
remain
,
seeing
the
women
are
destroyed
out of
Benjamin
?
21
:
17
And they
said
, There must be an
inheritance
for them that be
escaped
of
Benjamin
, that a
tribe
be not
destroyed
out of
Israel
.
21
:
18
Howbeit
we
may
not
give
them
wives
of our
daughters
: for the
children
of
Israel
have
sworn
,
saying
,
Cursed
be he that
giveth
a
wife
to
Benjamin
.
21
:
19
Then they
said
,
Behold
, there is a
feast
of the
LORD
in
Shiloh
yearly
in a
place
which is on the
north
side
of
Bethel
, on the
east
side
of the
highway
that
goeth
up from
Bethel
to
Shechem
, and on the
south
of
Lebonah
.
21
:
20
Therefore they
commanded
the
children
of
Benjamin
,
saying
,
Go
and
lie
in
wait
in the
vineyards
;
21
:
21
And
see
, and,
behold
, if the
daughters
of
Shiloh
come
out to
dance
in
dances
, then
come
ye out of the
vineyards
, and
catch
you every
man
his
wife
of the
daughters
of
Shiloh
, and
go
to the
land
of
Benjamin
.
21
:
22
And it shall be, when their
fathers
or their
brethren
come
unto us to
complain
, that we will
say
unto them, Be
favourable
unto them for our
sakes
: because we
reserved
not to each
man
his
wife
in the
war
: for ye did not
give
unto them at this
time
, that ye should be
guilty
.
21
:
23
And the
children
of
Benjamin
did so, and
took
them
wives
, according to their
number
, of them that
danced
, whom they
caught
: and they
went
and
returned
unto their
inheritance
, and
repaired
the
cities
, and
dwelt
in them.
21
:
24
And the
children
of
Israel
departed
thence at that
time
, every
man
to his
tribe
and to his
family
, and they
went
out from thence every
man
to his
inheritance
.
21
:
25
In those
days
there was no
king
in
Israel
: every
man
did that which was
right
in his own
eyes
.
