New King James Version
Judges 20:12-17
12Then the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, “What is this wickedness that has occurred among you?
13Now therefore, deliver up the men, the perverted men who are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death and remove the evil from Israel!” But the children of Benjamin would not listen to the voice of their brethren, the children of Israel.
14Instead, the children of Benjamin gathered together from their cities to Gibeah, to go to battle against the children of Israel.
15And from their cities at that time the children of Benjamin numbered twenty-six thousand men who drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gibeah, who numbered seven hundred select men.
16Among all this people were seven hundred select men who were left-handed; every one could sling a stone at a hair’s breadth and not miss.
17Now besides Benjamin, the men of Israel numbered four hundred thousand men who drew the sword; all of these were men of war.
