10And the company send there twelve thousand men of the sons of valour, and command them, saying, `Go -- and ye have smitten the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead by the mouth of the sword, even the women and the infants.
11And this [is] the thing which ye do; every male, and every woman knowing the lying of a male, ye devote.`
12And they find out of the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead four hundred young women, virgins, who have not known man by the lying of a male, and they bring them in unto the camp at Shiloh, which [is] in the land of Canaan.
13And all the company send, and speak, unto the sons of Benjamin who [are] in the rock Rimmon, and proclaim to them peace;
14and Benjamin turneth back at that time, and they give to them the women whom they have kept alive of the women of Jabesh-Gilead, and they have not found for [all of] them so.
15And the people repented concerning Benjamin, for Jehovah had made a breach among the tribes of Israel.
16And the elders of the company say, `What do we do to the remnant for wives -- for the women have been destroyed out of Benjamin?`
