8Then all the people got up as one man and said, Not one of us will go to his tent or go back to his house:
9But this is what we will do to Gibeah: we will go up against it by the decision of the Lord;
10And we will take ten men out of every hundred, through all the tribes of Israel, a hundred out of every thousand, a thousand out of every ten thousand, to get food for the people, so that they may give to Gibeah of Benjamin the right punishment for the act of shame they have done in Israel.
11So all the men of Israel were banded together against the town, united like one man.
12And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin saying, What is this evil which has been done among you?
13Now give up those good-for-nothing persons in Gibeah so that we may put them to death, clearing away the evil from Israel. But the children of Benjamin would not give ear to the voice of their brothers, the children of Israel.
14And the children of Benjamin came together from all their towns to Gibeah, to go to war with the children of Israel.
