Judges 21:21-23

21and watch; and behold, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to 12take part in the dances, then you shall come out of the vineyards and each of you shall catch his wife from the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin.

22It shall come about, when their fathers or their brothers come to complain to us, that we shall say to them, ‘Give them to us voluntarily, because we did not take for each man of Benjamin 3a wife in battle, 45nor did you give them to them, else you would now be guilty.’”

23The sons of Benjamin did so, and took wives according to their number from those who danced, whom they carried away. And they went and returned to their inheritance and 6rebuilt the cities and lived in them.
