19So they saidH559, “BeholdH2009, there is a feastH2282 of the LordH3068 from yearH3117 to yearH3117 in 1ShilohH7887, whichH834 is on the northH6828 sideH6828 of BethelH1008, on the eastH4217H8121 sideH4217H8121 of the roadH4546 that goesH5927 upH5927 from BethelH1008 to ShechemH7927, and on the southH5045 sideH5045 of LebonahH3829.”
20And they commandedH6680 the sonsH1121 of BenjaminH1144, sayingH559, “GoH1980 and lieH693 inH693 waitH693 in the vineyardsH3754,
21and watchH7200; and beholdH2009, ifH518 the daughtersH1323 of ShilohH7887 comeH3318 outH3318 to 23takeH2342 partH2342 in the dancesH4246, then you shall comeH3318 outH3318 of the vineyardsH3754, and eachH376 of you shall seizeH2414 his wifeH802 from the daughtersH1323 of ShilohH7887, and goH1980 to the landH776 of BenjaminH1144.
22And whenH3588 their fathersH1 orH176 their brothersH251 comeH935 to complainH7378 to us, we shall sayH559 to them, ‘4GiveH2603 them to us voluntarilyH2603, becauseH3588 we did not takeH3947 for eachH376 manH376 of Benjamin 5a wifeH802 in battleH4421, 67norH3588H3808 did you giveH5414 them to them, 8otherwise you would nowH6256 be guiltyH816.’”
