H1121
Then all the children
H3478
of Israel
H3318
went out
[H8799]
H5712
, and the congregation
H6950
was gathered together
[H8735]
H259
as one
H376
man
H1835
, from Dan
H884
even to Beersheba
H776
, with the land
H1568
of Gilead
H3068
, unto the LORD
H4709
in Mizpeh.
2
H6438
And the chief
H5971
of all the people
H7626
, even of all the tribes
H3478
of Israel
H3320
, presented
[H8691]
H6951
themselves in the assembly
H5971
of the people
H430
of God
H702
, four
H3967
hundred
H505
thousand
H376
footmen
H7273
H8025
that drew
[H8802]
H2719
sword.
3
H1121
(Now the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H8085
heard
[H8799]
H1121
that the children
H3478
of Israel
H5927
were gone up
[H8804]
H4709
to Mizpeh
H559
.) Then said
[H8799]
H1121
the children
H3478
of Israel
H1696
, Tell
[H8761]
H1961
us, how was
[H8738]
H7451
this wickedness?
4
H3881
And the Levite
H376
H376
, the husband
H802
of the woman
H7523
that was slain
[H8737]
H6030
, answered
[H8799]
H559
and said
[H8799]
H935
, I came
[H8804]
H1390
into Gibeah
H1144
that belongeth to Benjamin
H6370
, I and my concubine
H3885
, to lodge
[H8800]
.
5
H1167
And the men
H1390
of Gibeah
H6965
rose
[H8799]
H5437
against me, and beset
H1004
the house
H5437
round about
[H8799]
H3915
upon me by night
H1819
, and thought
[H8765]
H2026
to have slain
[H8800]
H6370
me: and my concubine
H6031
have they forced
[H8765]
H4191
, that she is dead
[H8799]
.
6
H270
And I took
[H8799]
H6370
my concubine
H5408
, and cut her in pieces
[H8762]
H7971
, and sent
[H8762]
H7704
her throughout all the country
H5159
of the inheritance
H3478
of Israel
H6213
: for they have committed
[H8804]
H2154
lewdness
H5039
and folly
H3478
in Israel.
7
H1121
Behold, ye are all children
H3478
of Israel
H3051
; give
[H8798]
H1988
here
H1697
your advice
H6098
and counsel.
8
H5971
And all the people
H6965
arose
[H8799]
H259
as one
H376
man
H559
, saying
[H8800]
H376
, We will not any
H3212
of us go
[H8799]
H168
to his tent
H376
, neither will we any
H5493
of us turn
[H8799]
H1004
into his house.
9
H1697
But now this shall be the thing
H6213
which we will do
[H8799]
H1390
to Gibeah
H1486
; we will go up by lot against it;
10
H3947
And we will take
[H8804]
H6235
ten
H582
men
H3967
of an hundred
H7626
throughout all the tribes
H3478
of Israel
H3967
, and an hundred
H505
of a thousand
H505
, and a thousand
H7233
out of ten thousand
H3947
, to fetch
[H8800]
H6720
victual
H5971
for the people
H6213
, that they may do
[H8800]
H935
, when they come
[H8800]
H1387
to Gibeah
H1144
of Benjamin
H5039
, according to all the folly
H6213
that they have wrought
[H8804]
H3478
in Israel.
11
H376
So all the men
H3478
of Israel
H622
were gathered
[H8735]
H5892
against the city
H2270
, knit together
H259
as one
H376
man.
12
H7626
And the tribes
H3478
of Israel
H7971
sent
[H8799]
H582
men
H7626
through all the tribe
H1144
of Benjamin
H559
, saying
[H8800]
H7451
, What wickedness
H1961
is this that is done
[H8738]
among you?
13
H5414
Now therefore deliver
[H8798]
H582
us the men
H1121
, the children
H1100
of Belial
H1390
, which are in Gibeah
H4191
, that we may put them to death
[H8686]
H1197
, and put away
[H8762]
H7451
evil
H3478
from Israel
H1121
. But the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H14
would
[H8804]
H8085
not hearken
[H8800]
H6963
to the voice
H251
of their brethren
H1121
the children
H3478
of Israel:
14
H1121
But the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H622
gathered themselves together
[H8735]
H5892
out of the cities
H1390
unto Gibeah
H3318
, to go out
[H8800]
H4421
to battle
H1121
against the children
H3478
of Israel.
15
H1121
And the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H6485
were numbered
[H8691]
H3117
at that time
H5892
out of the cities
H6242
twenty
H8337
and six
H505
thousand
H376
men
H8025
that drew
[H8802]
H2719
sword
H3427
, beside the inhabitants
[H8802]
H1390
of Gibeah
H6485
, which were numbered
[H8694]
H7651
seven
H3967
hundred
H977
chosen
[H8803]
H376
men.
16
H5971
Among all this people
H7651
there were seven
H3967
hundred
H977
chosen
[H8803]
H376
men
H334
lefthanded
H3027
H3225
H7049
; every one could sling
[H8802]
H68
stones
H8185
at an hair
H2398
breadth, and not miss
[H8686]
.
17
H376
And the men
H3478
of Israel
H1144
, beside Benjamin
H6485
, were numbered
[H8694]
H702
four
H3967
hundred
H505
thousand
H376
men
H8025
that drew
[H8802]
H2719
sword
H376
: all these were men
H4421
of war.
18
H1121
And the children
H3478
of Israel
H6965
arose
[H8799]
H5927
, and went up
[H8799]
H1004
to the house
H430
of God
[H8677]
H1008
H7592
, and asked
[H8799]
H430
counsel of God
H559
, and said
[H8799]
H4310
, Which
H5927
of us shall go up
[H8799]
H8462
first
H4421
to the battle
H1121
against the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H3068
? And the LORD
H559
said
[H8799]
H3063
, Judah
H8462
shall go up first.
19
H1121
And the children
H3478
of Israel
H6965
rose up
[H8799]
H1242
in the morning
H2583
, and encamped
[H8799]
H1390
against Gibeah.
20
H376
And the men
H3478
of Israel
H3318
went out
[H8799]
H4421
to battle
H1144
against Benjamin
H376
; and the men
H3478
of Israel
H6186
put themselves in array
[H8799]
H4421
to fight
H1390
against them at Gibeah.
21
H1121
And the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H3318
came forth
[H8799]
H1390
out of Gibeah
H7843
, and destroyed down
[H8686]
H776
to the ground
H3478
of the Israelites
H3117
that day
H6242
twenty
H8147
and two
H505
thousand
H376
men.
22
H5971
And the people
H376
the men
H3478
of Israel
H2388
encouraged
[H8691]
H4421
themselves, and set their battle
H3254
again
[H8686]
H6186
in array
[H8800]
H4725
in the place
H6186
where they put themselves in array
[H8804]
H7223
the first
H3117
day.
23
H1121
(And the children
H3478
of Israel
H5927
went up
[H8799]
H1058
and wept
[H8799]
H6440
before
H3068
the LORD
H6153
until even
H7592
, and asked
[H8799]
H3068
counsel of the LORD
H559
, saying
[H8800]
H5066
, Shall I go up
[H8800]
H3254
again
[H8686]
H4421
to battle
H1121
against the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H251
my brother
H3068
? And the LORD
H559
said
[H8799]
H5927
, Go up
[H8798]
against him.)
24
H1121
And the children
H3478
of Israel
H7126
came near
[H8799]
H1121
against the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H8145
the second
H3117
day.
25
H1144
And Benjamin
H3318
went forth
[H8799]
H7125
against
[H8800]
H1390
them out of Gibeah
H8145
the second
H3117
day
H7843
, and destroyed down
[H8686]
H776
to the ground
H1121
of the children
H3478
of Israel
H8083
again eighteen
H6240
H505
thousand
H376
men
H8025
; all these drew
[H8802]
H2719
the sword.
26
H1121
Then all the children
H3478
of Israel
H5971
, and all the people
H5927
, went up
[H8799]
H935
, and came
[H8799]
H1004
unto the house
H430
of God
[H8677]
H1008
H1058
, and wept
[H8799]
H3427
, and sat
[H8799]
H6440
there before
H3068
the LORD
H6684
, and fasted
[H8799]
H3117
that day
H6153
until even
H5927
, and offered
[H8686]
H5930
burnt offerings
H8002
and peace offerings
H6440
before
H3068
the LORD.
27
H1121
And the children
H3478
of Israel
H7592
enquired
[H8799]
H3068
of the LORD
H727
, (for the ark
H1285
of the covenant
H430
of God
H3117
was there in those days,
28
H6372
And Phinehas
H1121
, the son
H499
of Eleazar
H1121
, the son
H175
of Aaron
H5975
, stood
[H8802]
H6440
before
H3117
it in those days
H559
,) saying
[H8800]
H3254
, Shall I yet again
[H8686]
H3318
go out
[H8800]
H4421
to battle
H1121
against the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H251
my brother
H2308
, or shall I cease
[H8799]
H3068
? And the LORD
H559
said
[H8799]
H5927
, Go up
[H8798]
H4279
; for to morrow
H5414
I will deliver
[H8799]
H3027
them into thine hand.
30
H1121
And the children
H3478
of Israel
H5927
went up
[H8799]
H1121
against the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H7992
on the third
H3117
day
H6186
, and put themselves in array
[H8799]
H1390
against Gibeah
H6471
, as at other times.
31
H1121
And the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H3318
went out
[H8799]
H7125
against
[H8800]
H5971
the people
H5423
, and were drawn away
[H8717]
H5892
from the city
H2490
; and they began
[H8686]
H5221
to smite
[H8687]
H5971
of the people
H2491
, and kill
H6471
, as at other times
H4546
, in the highways
H259
, of which one
H5927
goeth up
[H8802]
H1004
to the house
H430
of God
[H8677]
H1008
H259
, and the other
H1390
to Gibeah
H7704
in the field
H7970
, about thirty
H376
men
H3478
of Israel.
32
H1121
And the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H559
said
[H8799]
H5062
, They are smitten down
[H8737]
H6440
before
H7223
us, as at the first
H1121
. But the children
H3478
of Israel
H559
said
[H8804]
H5127
, Let us flee
[H8799]
H5423
, and draw
[H8804]
H5892
them from the city
H4546
unto the highways.
33
H376
And all the men
H3478
of Israel
H6965
rose up
[H8804]
H4725
out of their place
H6186
, and put themselves in array
[H8799]
H1193
at Baaltamar
H693
: and the liers in wait
[H8802]
H3478
of Israel
H1518
came forth
[H8688]
H4725
out of their places
H4629
, even out of the meadows
H1387
of Gibeah.
34
H935
And there came
[H8799]
H5048
against
H1390
Gibeah
H6235
ten
H505
thousand
H977
chosen
[H8803]
H376
men
H3478
out of all Israel
H4421
, and the battle
H3513
was sore
[H8804]
H3045
: but they knew
[H8804]
H7451
not that evil
H5060
was near
[H8802]
them.
35
H3068
And the LORD
H5062
smote
[H8799]
H1144
Benjamin
H6440
before
H3478
Israel
H1121
: and the children
H3478
of Israel
H7843
destroyed
[H8686]
H1145
of the Benjamites
H3117
that day
H6242
twenty
H2568
and five
H505
thousand
H3967
and an hundred
H376
men
H8025
: all these drew
[H8802]
H2719
the sword.
36
H1121
So the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H7200
saw
[H8799]
H5062
that they were smitten
[H8738]
H376
: for the men
H3478
of Israel
H5414
gave
[H8799]
H4725
place
H1145
to the Benjamites
H982
, because they trusted
[H8804]
H693
unto the liers in wait
[H8802]
H7760
which they had set
[H8804]
H1390
beside Gibeah.
37
H693
And the liers in wait
[H8802]
H2363
hasted
[H8689]
H6584
, and rushed
[H8799]
H1390
upon Gibeah
H693
; and the liers in wait
[H8802]
H4900
drew themselves along
[H8799]
H5221
, and smote
[H8686]
H5892
all the city
H6310
with the edge
H2719
of the sword.
38
H4150
Now there was an appointed sign
H376
between the men
H3478
of Israel
H5973
and
H693
the liers in wait
[H8802]
H7235
, that they should make a great
[H8685]
H4864
flame
H6227
with smoke
H5927
rise up
[H8687]
H5892
out of the city.
39
H376
And when the men
H3478
of Israel
H2015
retired
[H8799]
H4421
in the battle
H1144
, Benjamin
H2490
began
[H8689]
H5221
to smite
[H8687]
H2491
and kill
H376
of the men
H3478
of Israel
H7970
about thirty
H376
persons
H559
: for they said
[H8804]
H5062
, Surely
[H8736]
H5062
they are smitten down
[H8737]
H6440
before
H7223
us, as in the first
H4421
battle.
40
H4864
But when the flame
H2490
began
[H8689]
H5927
to arise up
[H8800]
H5892
out of the city
H5982
with a pillar
H6227
of smoke
H1145
, the Benjamites
H6437
looked
[H8799]
H310
behind
H3632
them, and, behold, the flame
H5892
of the city
H5927
ascended up
[H8804]
H8064
to heaven.
41
H376
And when the men
H3478
of Israel
H2015
turned again
[H8804]
H376
, the men
H1144
of Benjamin
H926
were amazed
[H8735]
H7200
: for they saw
[H8804]
H7451
that evil
H5060
was come
[H8804]
upon them.
42
H6437
Therefore they turned
[H8799]
H6440
their backs before
H376
the men
H3478
of Israel
H1870
unto the way
H4057
of the wilderness
H4421
; but the battle
H1692
overtook
[H8689]
H5892
them; and them which came out of the cities
H7843
they destroyed
[H8688]
H8432
in the midst of them.
43
H3803
Thus they inclosed
[H8765]
H1145
the Benjamites
H3803
round about
[H8765]
H7291
, and chased
[H8689]
H1869
them, and trode them down
[H8689]
H4496
with ease
H5227
over against
H1390
Gibeah
H4217
toward the sunrising
H8121
.
44
H5307
And there fell
[H8799]
H1144
of Benjamin
H8083
eighteen
H6240
H505
thousand
H376
men
H582
; all these were men
H2428
of valour.
45
H6437
And they turned
[H8799]
H5127
and fled
[H8799]
H4057
toward the wilderness
H5553
unto the rock
H7417
of Rimmon
H5953
: and they gleaned
[H8779]
H4546
of them in the highways
H2568
five
H505
thousand
H376
men
H1692
; and pursued
[H8686]
H310
hard after
H1440
them unto Gidom
H5221
, and slew
[H8686]
H505
two thousand
H376
men of them.
46
H5307
So that all which fell
[H8802]
H3117
that day
H1144
of Benjamin
H6242
were twenty
H2568
and five
H505
thousand
H376
men
H8025
that drew
[H8802]
H2719
the sword
H582
; all these were men
H2428
of valour.
47
H8337
But six
H3967
hundred
H376
men
H6437
turned
[H8799]
H5127
and fled
[H8799]
H4057
to the wilderness
H5553
unto the rock
H7417
Rimmon
H3427
, and abode
[H8799]
H5553
in the rock
H7417
Rimmon
H702
four
H2320
months.
48
H376
And the men
H3478
of Israel
H7725
turned again
[H8804]
H1121
upon the children
H1144
of Benjamin
H5221
, and smote
[H8686]
H6310
them with the edge
H2719
of the sword
H4974
, as well the men
H5892
of every city
H5704
, as
H929
the beast
H4672
, and all that came to hand
[H8737]
H7971
: also they set
[H8765]
H784
on fire
H5892
all the cities
H4672
that they came to
[H8737]
.
