And, behold, there cameH935 noneH376 to the campH4264 from Jabesh–gileadH1568H3003 to the assemblyH6951. 9For the peopleH5971 were numberedH6485, and, behold, there were noneH376 of the inhabitantsH3427 of Jabesh–gileadH1568H3003 there. 10And the congregationH5712 sentH7971 thither twelveH6240H8147 thousandH505 menH376 of the valiantestH2428H1121, and commandedH6680 them, sayingH559, GoH3212 and smiteH5221 the inhabitantsH3427 of Jabesh–gileadH1568H3003 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719, with the womenH802 and the childrenH2945. 11And this is the thingH1697 that ye shall doH6213, Ye shall utterly destroyH2763 every maleH2145, and every womanH802 that hath lainH4904 by manH3045.1 12And they foundH4672 among the inhabitantsH3427 of Jabesh–gileadH1568H3003 fourH702 hundredH3967 youngH5291 virginsH1330, that had knownH3045 no manH376 by lyingH4904 with any maleH2145: and they broughtH935 them unto the campH4264 to ShilohH7887, which is in the landH776 of CanaanH3667.2 13And the whole congregationH5712 sentH7971 some to speakH1696 to the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 that were in the rockH5553 RimmonH7417, and to callH7121 peaceablyH7965 unto them.34 14And BenjaminH1144 came againH7725 at that timeH6256; and they gaveH5414 them wivesH802 which they had saved aliveH2421 of the womenH802 of Jabesh–gileadH1568H3003: and yet so they sufficedH4672 them not.
