New English Translation
Judges 21:5-8
5The Israelites asked, “Who from all the Israelite tribes has not assembled before the Lord?” They had made a solemn oath that whoever did not assemble before the Lord at Mizpah must certainly be executed.
6The Israelites regretted what had happened to their brother Benjamin. They said, “Today we cut off an entire tribe from Israel!
7How can we find wives for those who are left? After all, we took an oath in the Lord’s name not to give them our daughters as wives.”
8So they asked, “Who from all the Israelite tribes did not assemble before the Lord at Mizpah?” Now it just so happened no one from Jabesh Gilead had come to the gathering.
