Judges 20:12-17
12Then the tribes of Israel sent men throughout the tribe of Benjamin, saying, “What is this evil act that has happened among you?
13Hand over the wicked men in Gibeah so we can put them to death and purge evil from Israel.” But the Benjaminites would not listen to their fellow Israelites.
14Instead, the Benjaminites gathered together from their cities to Gibeah to go out and fight against the Israelites.
15On that day the Benjaminites mobilized twenty-six thousand armed men from their cities, besides seven hundred fit young men rallied by the inhabitants of Gibeah.
16There were seven hundred fit young men who were left-handed among all these troops; all could sling a stone at a hair and not miss.
17The Israelites, apart from Benjamin, mobilized four hundred thousand armed men, every one an experienced warrior.
