4So the LeviteH3881, the husbandH376 of the womanH802 who was murderedH7523, answeredH6030 and saidH559, “I cameH935 with my concubineH6370 to spendH3885 theH3885 nightH3885 at GibeahH1390 whichH834 belongs to BenjaminH1144. 5But the 12citizensH1167 of GibeahH1390 roseH6965 upH6965 againstH5921 me and surroundedH5437 the houseH1004 at nightH3915, 3threateningH5921 me. They intendedH1819 to killH2026 me; instead, they 4rapedH6031 my concubineH6370 so that she diedH4191. 6And I 5tookH270 holdH270 of my concubineH6370 and cutH5408 her inH5408 piecesH5408, and sentH7971 her throughoutH3605 the landH7704 of Israel’sH3478 inheritanceH5159; for 6they have committedH6213 an outrageousH2154 sinH2154 and vileH5039 actH5039 in IsraelH3478. 7BeholdH2009, allH3605 you sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, 7giveH3051 your 8responseH1697 and adviceH6098 hereH1988.”
