Judges 20:1-17

Then all the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

went out
<03318> (8799)_,

and the congregation
<05712>

was gathered together
<06950> (8735)

as one
<0259>

man
<0376>_,

from Dan
<01835>

even to Beersheba
<0884>_,

with the land
<0776>

of Gilead
<01568>_,

unto the LORD
<03068>

in Mizpeh
<04709>_.

And the chief
<06438>

of all the people
<05971>_,

[even] of all the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>_,

presented
<03320> (8691)

themselves in the assembly
<06951>

of the people
<05971>

of God
<0430>_,

four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

thousand
<0505>

footmen
<0376> <07273>

that drew
<08025> (8802)

sword
<02719>_.

(Now the children
<01121>

of Benjamin
<01144>

heard
<08085> (8799)

that the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

were gone up
<05927> (8804)

to Mizpeh
<04709>.)

Then said
<0559> (8799)

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

Tell
<01696> (8761)

[us], how was
<01961> (8738)

this wickedness
<07451>_?

And the Levite
<03881> <0376>_,

the husband
<0376>

of the woman
<0802>

that was slain
<07523> (8737)_,

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

I came
<0935> (8804)

into Gibeah
<01390>

that [belongeth] to Benjamin
<01144>_,

I and my concubine
<06370>_,

to lodge
<03885> (8800)_.

{the Levite: Heb. the man the Levite}

And the men
<01167>

of Gibeah
<01390>

rose
<06965> (8799)

against me, and beset
<05437> (0)

the house
<01004>

round about
<05437> (8799)

upon me by night
<03915>_,

[and] thought
<01819> (8765)

to have slain
<02026> (8800)

me: and my concubine
<06370>

have they forced
<06031> (8765)_,

that she is dead
<04191> (8799)_.

{forced: Heb. humbled}

And I took
<0270> (8799)

my concubine
<06370>_,

and cut her in pieces
<05408> (8762)_,

and sent
<07971> (8762)

her throughout all the country
<07704>

of the inheritance
<05159>

of Israel
<03478>_:

for they have committed
<06213> (8804)

lewdness
<02154>

and folly
<05039>

in Israel
<03478>_.

Behold, ye [are] all children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_;

give
<03051> (8798)

here
<01988>

your advice
<01697>

and counsel
<06098>_.

And all the people
<05971>

arose
<06965> (8799)

as one
<0259>

man
<0376>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

We will not any
<0376>

[of us] go
<03212> (8799)

to his tent
<0168>_,

neither will we any
<0376>

[of us] turn
<05493> (8799)

into his house
<01004>_.

But now this [shall be] the thing
<01697>

which we will do
<06213> (8799)

to Gibeah
<01390>_;

[we will go up] by lot
<01486>

against it;

And we will take
<03947> (8804)

ten
<06235>

men
<0582>

of an hundred
<03967>

throughout all the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and an hundred
<03967>

of a thousand
<0505>_,

and a thousand
<0505>

out of ten thousand
<07233>_,

to fetch
<03947> (8800)

victual
<06720>

for the people
<05971>_,

that they may do
<06213> (8800)_,

when they come
<0935> (8800)

to Gibeah
<01387>

of Benjamin
<01144>_,

according to all the folly
<05039>

that they have wrought
<06213> (8804)

in Israel
<03478>_.

So all the men
<0376>

of Israel
<03478>

were gathered
<0622> (8735)

against the city
<05892>_,

knit together
<02270>

as one
<0259>

man
<0376>_.

{knit...: Heb. fellows}

And the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>

sent
<07971> (8799)

men
<0582>

through all the tribe
<07626>

of Benjamin
<01144>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

What wickedness
<07451>

[is] this that is done
<01961> (8738)

among you?

Now therefore deliver
<05414> (8798)

[us] the men
<0582>_,

the children
<01121>

of Belial
<01100>_,

which [are] in Gibeah
<01390>_,

that we may put them to death
<04191> (8686)_,

and put away
<01197> (8762)

evil
<07451>

from Israel
<03478>_.

But the children
<01121>

of Benjamin
<01144>

would
<014> (8804)

not hearken
<08085> (8800)

to the voice
<06963>

of their brethren
<0251>

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_:

But the children
<01121>

of Benjamin
<01144>

gathered themselves together
<0622> (8735)

out of the cities
<05892>

unto Gibeah
<01390>_,

to go out
<03318> (8800)

to battle
<04421>

against the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_.

And the children
<01121>

of Benjamin
<01144>

were numbered
<06485> (8691)

at that time
<03117>

out of the cities
<05892>

twenty
<06242>

and six
<08337>

thousand
<0505>

men
<0376>

that drew
<08025> (8802)

sword
<02719>_,

beside the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Gibeah
<01390>_,

which were numbered
<06485> (8694)

seven
<07651>

hundred
<03967>

chosen
<0977> (8803)

men
<0376>_.

Among all this people
<05971>

[there were] seven
<07651>

hundred
<03967>

chosen
<0977> (8803)

men
<0376>

lefthanded
<0334> <03027> <03225>_;

every one could sling
<07049> (8802)

stones
<068>

at an hair
<08185>

[breadth], and not miss
<02398> (8686)_.

And the men
<0376>

of Israel
<03478>_,

beside Benjamin
<01144>_,

were numbered
<06485> (8694)

four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

thousand
<0505>

men
<0376>

that drew
<08025> (8802)

<02719>_:

all these [were] men
<0376>

of war
<04421>_.
