1
Then all the children [1121] of Israel [3478] went out, [3318] and the congregation [5712] was gathered together [6950] as one [0259] man, [0376] from Dan [1835] even to Beersheba, [0884] with the land [0776] of Gilead, [1568] unto the LORD [3068] in Mizpeh. [4709]
2
And the chief [6438] of all the people, [5971] [even] of all the tribes [7626] of Israel, [3478] presented [3320] themselves in the assembly [6951] of the people [5971] of God, [0430] four [0702] hundred [3967] thousand [0505] footmen [0376] [7273] that drew [8025] sword. [2719]
3
(Now the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] heard [8085] that the children [1121] of Israel [3478] were gone up [5927] to Mizpeh.) [4709] Then said [0559] the children [1121] of Israel, [3478] Tell [1696] [us], how was [1961] this wickedness? [7451]
4
And the Levite, [3881] [0376] the husband [0376] of the woman [0802] that was slain, [7523] answered [6030] and said, [0559] I came [0935] into Gibeah [1390] that [belongeth] to Benjamin, [1144] I and my concubine, [6370] to lodge. [3885]
5
And the men [1167] of Gibeah [1390] rose [6965] against me, and beset the house [1004] round about [5437] upon me by night, [3915] [and] thought [1819] to have slain [2026] me: and my concubine [6370] have they forced, [6031] that she is dead. [4191]
6
And I took [0270] my concubine, [6370] and cut her in pieces, [5408] and sent [7971] her throughout all the country [7704] of the inheritance [5159] of Israel: [3478] for they have committed [6213] lewdness [2154] and folly [5039] in Israel. [3478]
7
Behold, ye [are] all children [1121] of Israel; [3478] give [3051] here [1988] your advice [1697] and counsel. [6098]
8
And all the people [5971] arose [6965] as one [0259] man, [0376] saying, [0559] We will not any [0376] [of us] go [3212] to his tent, [0168] neither will we any [0376] [of us] turn [5493] into his house. [1004]
9
But now this [shall be] the thing [1697] which we will do [6213] to Gibeah; [1390] [we will go up] by lot [1486] against it;
10
And we will take [3947] ten [6235] men [0582] of an hundred [3967] throughout all the tribes [7626] of Israel, [3478] and an hundred [3967] of a thousand, [0505] and a thousand [0505] out of ten thousand, [7233] to fetch [3947] victual [6720] for the people, [5971] that they may do, [6213] when they come [0935] to Gibeah [1387] of Benjamin, [1144] according to all the folly [5039] that they have wrought [6213] in Israel. [3478]
11
So all the men [0376] of Israel [3478] were gathered [0622] against the city, [5892] knit together [2270] as one [0259] man. [0376]
12
And the tribes [7626] of Israel [3478] sent [7971] men [0582] through all the tribe [7626] of Benjamin, [1144] saying, [0559] What wickedness [7451] [is] this that is done [1961] among you?
13
Now therefore deliver [5414] [us] the men, [0582] the children [1121] of Belial, [1100] which [are] in Gibeah, [1390] that we may put them to death, [4191] and put away [1197] evil [7451] from Israel. [3478] But the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] would [0014] not hearken [8085] to the voice [6963] of their brethren [0251] the children [1121] of Israel: [3478]
14
But the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] gathered [0622] themselves together out of the cities [5892] unto Gibeah, [1390] to go out [3318] to battle [4421] against the children [1121] of Israel. [3478]
15
And the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] were numbered [6485] at that time [3117] out of the cities [5892] twenty [6242] and six [8337] thousand [0505] men [0376] that drew [8025] sword, [2719] beside the inhabitants [3427] of Gibeah, [1390] which were numbered [6485] seven [7651] hundred [3967] chosen [0977] men. [0376]
16
Among all this people [5971] [there were] seven [7651] hundred [3967] chosen [0977] men [0376] lefthanded; [0334] [3027] [3225] every one could sling [7049] stones [0068] at an hair [8185] [breadth], and not miss. [2398]
17
And the men [0376] of Israel, [3478] beside Benjamin, [1144] were numbered [6485] four [0702] hundred [3967] thousand [0505] men [0376] that drew [8025] sword: [2719] all these [were] men [0376] of war. [4421]
18
And the children [1121] of Israel [3478] arose, [6965] and went up [5927] to the house of God, [1008] and asked [7592] counsel of God, [0430] and said, [0559] Which [4310] of us shall go up [5927] first [8462] to the battle [4421] against the children [1121] of Benjamin? [1144] And the LORD [3068] said, [0559] Judah [3063] [shall go up] first. [8462]
19
And the children [1121] of Israel [3478] rose up [6965] in the morning, [1242] and encamped [2583] against Gibeah. [1390]
20
And the men [0376] of Israel [3478] went out [3318] to battle [4421] against Benjamin; [1144] and the men [0376] of Israel [3478] put themselves in array [6186] to fight [4421] against them at Gibeah. [1390]
21
And the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] came forth [3318] out of Gibeah, [1390] and destroyed [7843] down to the ground [0776] of the Israelites [3478] that day [3117] twenty [6242] and two [8147] thousand [0505] men. [0376]
22
And the people [5971] the men [0376] of Israel [3478] encouraged [2388] themselves, and set their battle [4421] again [3254] in array [6186] in the place [4725] where they put themselves in array [6186] the first [7223] day. [3117]
23
(And the children [1121] of Israel [3478] went up [5927] and wept [1058] before [6440] the LORD [3068] until even, [6153] and asked [7592] counsel of the LORD, [3068] saying, [0559] Shall I go up [5066] again [3254] to battle [4421] against the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] my brother? [0251] And the LORD [3068] said, [0559] Go up [5927] against him.)
24
And the children [1121] of Israel [3478] came near [7126] against the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] the second [8145] day. [3117]
25
And Benjamin [1144] went forth [3318] against [7125] them out of Gibeah [1390] the second [8145] day, [3117] and destroyed [7843] down to the ground [0776] of the children [1121] of Israel [3478] again eighteen [8083] [6240] thousand [0505] men; [0376] all these drew [8025] the sword. [2719]
26
Then all the children [1121] of Israel, [3478] and all the people, [5971] went up, [5927] and came [0935] unto the house of God, [1008] and wept, [1058] and sat [3427] there before [6440] the LORD, [3068] and fasted [6684] that day [3117] until even, [6153] and offered [5927] burnt offerings [5930] and peace offerings [8002] before [6440] the LORD. [3068]
27
And the children [1121] of Israel [3478] enquired [7592] of the LORD, [3068] (for the ark [0727] of the covenant [1285] of God [0430] [was] there in those days, [3117]
28
And Phinehas, [6372] the son [1121] of Eleazar, [0499] the son [1121] of Aaron, [0175] stood [5975] before [6440] it in those days,) [3117] saying, [0559] Shall I yet again [3254] go out [3318] to battle [4421] against the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] my brother, [0251] or shall I cease? [2308] And the LORD [3068] said, [0559] Go up; [5927] for to morrow [4279] I will deliver [5414] them into thine hand. [3027]
29
And Israel [3478] set [7760] liers in wait [0693] round about [5439] Gibeah. [1390]
30
And the children [1121] of Israel [3478] went up [5927] against the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] on the third [7992] day, [3117] and put themselves in array [6186] against Gibeah, [1390] as at other times. [6471] [6471]
31
And the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] went out [3318] against [7125] the people, [5971] [and] were drawn away [5423] from the city; [5892] and they began [2490] to smite [5221] of the people, [5971] [and] kill, [2491] as at other times, [6471] [6471] in the highways, [4546] of which one [0259] goeth up [5927] to the house of God, [1008] and the other [0259] to Gibeah [1390] in the field, [7704] about thirty [7970] men [0376] of Israel. [3478]
32
And the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] said, [0559] They [are] smitten down [5062] before [6440] us, as at the first. [7223] But the children [1121] of Israel [3478] said, [0559] Let us flee, [5127] and draw [5423] them from the city [5892] unto the highways. [4546]
33
And all the men [0376] of Israel [3478] rose up [6965] out of their place, [4725] and put themselves in array [6186] at Baaltamar: [1193] and the liers in wait [0693] of Israel [3478] came forth [1518] out of their places, [4725] [even] out of the meadows [4629] of Gibeah. [1387]
34
And there came [0935] against [5048] Gibeah [1390] ten [6235] thousand [0505] chosen [0977] men [0376] out of all Israel, [3478] and the battle [4421] was sore: [3513] but they knew [3045] not that evil [7451] [was] near [5060] them.
35
And the LORD [3068] smote [5062] Benjamin [1144] before [6440] Israel: [3478] and the children [1121] of Israel [3478] destroyed [7843] of the Benjamites [1144] that day [3117] twenty [6242] and five [2568] thousand [0505] and an hundred [3967] men: [0376] all these drew [8025] the sword. [2719]
36
So the children [1121] of Benjamin [1144] saw [7200] that they were smitten: [5062] for the men [0376] of Israel [3478] gave [5414] place [4725] to the Benjamites, [1144] because they trusted [0982] unto the liers in wait [0693] which they had set [7760] beside Gibeah. [1390]
37
And the liers in wait [0693] hasted, [2363] and rushed [6584] upon Gibeah; [1390] and the liers in wait [0693] drew [themselves] along, [4900] and smote [5221] all the city [5892] with the edge [6310] of the sword. [2719]
38
Now there was an appointed sign [4150] between the men [0376] of Israel [3478] and [5973] the liers in wait, [0693] that they should make a great [7235] flame [4864] with smoke [6227] rise up [5927] out of the city. [5892]
39
And when the men [0376] of Israel [3478] retired [2015] in the battle, [4421] Benjamin [1144] began [2490] to smite [5221] [and] kill [2491] of the men [0376] of Israel [3478] about thirty [7970] persons: [0376] for they said, [0559] Surely [5062] they are smitten down [5062] before [6440] us, as [in] the first [7223] battle. [4421]
40
But when the flame [4864] began [2490] to arise up [5927] out of the city [5892] with a pillar [5982] of smoke, [6227] the Benjamites [1144] looked [6437] behind [0310] them, and, behold, the flame [3632] of the city [5892] ascended up [5927] to heaven. [8064]
41
And when the men [0376] of Israel [3478] turned [2015] again, the men [0376] of Benjamin [1144] were amazed: [0926] for they saw [7200] that evil [7451] was come [5060] upon them.
42
Therefore they turned [6437] [their backs] before [6440] the men [0376] of Israel [3478] unto the way [1870] of the wilderness; [4057] but the battle [4421] overtook [1692] them; and them which [came] out of the cities [5892] they destroyed [7843] in the midst [8432] of them.
43
[Thus] they inclosed [3803] the Benjamites [1144] round about, [3803] [and] chased [7291] them, [and] trode them down [1869] with ease [4496] over against [5227] Gibeah [1390] toward the sunrising. [4217] [8121]
44
And there fell [5307] of Benjamin [1144] eighteen [8083] [6240] thousand [0505] men; [0376] all these [were] men [0582] of valour. [2428]
45
And they turned [6437] and fled [5127] toward the wilderness [4057] unto the rock [5553] of Rimmon: [7417] and they gleaned [5953] of them in the highways [4546] five [2568] thousand [0505] men; [0376] and pursued hard [1692] after [0310] them unto Gidom, [1440] and slew [5221] two thousand [0505] men [0376] of them.
46
So that all which fell [5307] that day [3117] of Benjamin [1144] were twenty [6242] and five [2568] thousand [0505] men [0376] that drew [8025] the sword; [2719] all these [were] men [0582] of valour. [2428]
47
But six [8337] hundred [3967] men [0376] turned [6437] and fled [5127] to the wilderness [4057] unto the rock [5553] Rimmon, [7417] and abode [3427] in the rock [5553] Rimmon [7417] four [0702] months. [2320]
48
And the men [0376] of Israel [3478] turned [7725] again upon the children [1121] of Benjamin, [1144] and smote [5221] them with the edge [6310] of the sword, [2719] as well the men [4974] of [every] city, [5892] as [5704] the beast, [0929] and [5704] all that came to hand: [4672] also they set [7971] on fire [0784] all the cities [5892] that they came to. [4672]
