Judges 21:16-25

16Then the eldersH2205 of the congregationH5712 saidH559, How shall we doH6213 for wivesH802 for them that remainH3498, seeing the womenH802 are destroyedH8045 out of BenjaminH1144? 17And they saidH559, There must be an inheritanceH3425 for them that have escapedH6413 of BenjaminH1144, that a tribeH7626 be not destroyedH4229 out of IsraelH3478. 18But we mayH3201 not giveH5414 them wivesH802 of our daughtersH1323: for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 have swornH7650, sayingH559, CursedH779 be he that givethH5414 a wifeH802 to BenjaminH1144. 19Then they saidH559, Behold, there is a feastH2282 of the LORDH3068 in ShilohH7887 yearlyH3117 in a place which is on the north sideH6828 of BethelH1008, on the east sideH4217H8121 of the highwayH4546 that goeth upH5927 from BethelH1008 to ShechemH7927, and on the southH5045 of LebonahH3829.123 20Therefore they commandedH6680 the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144, sayingH559, GoH3212 and lie in waitH693 in the vineyardsH3754; 21And seeH7200, and, behold, if the daughtersH1323 of ShilohH7887 come outH3318 to danceH2342 in dancesH4246, then come ye outH3318 of the vineyardsH3754, and catchH2414 you every manH376 his wifeH802 of the daughtersH1323 of ShilohH7887, and goH1980 to the landH776 of BenjaminH1144. 22And it shall be, when their fathersH1 or their brethrenH251 comeH935 to us to complainH7378, that we will sayH559 to them, Be favourableH2603 to them for our sakes: because we reservedH3947 not to each manH376 his wifeH802 in the warH4421: for ye did not giveH5414 to them at this timeH6256, that ye should be guiltyH816.4 23And the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 did soH6213, and tookH5375 them wivesH802, according to their numberH4557, of them that dancedH2342, whom they caughtH1497: and they wentH3212 and returnedH7725 to their inheritanceH5159, and repairedH1129 the citiesH5892, and dweltH3427 in them. 24And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 departedH1980 from there at that timeH6256, every manH376 to his tribeH7626 and to his familyH4940, and they wentH3318 from there every manH376 to his inheritanceH5159. 25In those daysH3117 there was no kingH4428 in IsraelH3478: every manH376 didH6213 that which was rightH3477 in his own eyesH5869.
