Judges 21:5-8

5And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, Who is there among all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 thatH834 cameH5927 not up with the congregationH6951 unto YhwhH3068? For they had made a greatH1419 oathH7621 concerning him that came not upH5927 to YhwhH3068 to MizpehH4709, sayingH559, He shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191. 6And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 repentedH5162 them for BenjaminH1144 their brotherH251, and saidH559, There is oneH259 tribeH7626 cut offH1438 from IsraelH3478 this dayH3117. 7How shall we doH6213 for wivesH802 for them that remainH3498, seeing we have swornH7650 by YhwhH3068 that we will not giveH5414 them of our daughtersH1323 to wivesH802?

8And they saidH559, What oneH259 is there of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 that came not upH5927 to MizpehH4709 to YhwhH3068? And, behold, there cameH935 noneH376 to the campH4264 from Jabesh–gileadH1568H3003 to the assemblyH6951.
