Judges 20:8-17

8And all the people arose as one man, saying, "None of us will go to his tent, and none of us will return to his house.

9But now this is what we will do to Gibeah: we will go up against it by lot,

10and we will take ten men of a hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred of a thousand, and a thousand of ten thousand, to bring provisions for the people, that when they come they may repay Gibeah of Benjamin for all the outrage that they have committed in Israel."

11So all the men of Israel gathered against the city, united as one man.

12And the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, "What evil is this that has taken place among you?

13Now therefore give up the men, the worthless fellows in Gibeah, that we may put them to death and purge evil from Israel." But the Benjaminites would not listen to the voice of their brothers, the people of Israel.

14Then the people of Benjamin came together out of the cities to Gibeah to go out to battle against the people of Israel.

15And the people of Benjamin mustered out of their cities on that day 26,000 men who drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gibeah, who mustered 700 chosen men.

16Among all these were 700 chosen men who were left-handed; every one could sling a stone at a hair and not miss.

17And the men of Israel, apart from Benjamin, mustered 400,000 men who drew the sword; all these were men of war.
