And the sons of Israel say, `Speak ye, how hath this evil been?&#8217; <\/br><strong>4<\/strong> And the man, the Levite, husband of the woman who hath been murdered, answereth and saith, `Into Gibeah (which `is&#8217; to Benjamin) I have come, I and my concubine, to lodge; <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> and rise against me do the masters of Gibeah &#8212; and they go round the house against me by night

of the inheritance of Israel; for they have done wickedness and folly in Israel; <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> lo, ye `are&#8217; all sons of Israel; give for you a word and counsel here.&#8217; <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> And all the people rise as one man, saying, `None of us doth go to his tent, and none of us doth turn aside to his house; <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> and now, this `is&#8217; the thing which we do to Gibeah &#8212; against it by lot! <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> and we have taken ten men of a hundred, of all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred of a thousand, and a thousand of a myriad, to receive provision for the people, to do, at their coming to Gibeah of Benjamin, according to all the folly which it hath done in Israel.&#8217; <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> And every man of Israel is gathered unto the city, as one man &#8212; companions. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> And the tribes of Israel send men among all the tribes of Benjamin, saying, `What `is&#8217; this evil which hath been among you? <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> And now, give up the men &#8212; sons of worthlessness &#8212; which `are&#8217; in Gibeah, and we put them to death, and we put away evil from Israel.&#8217; And `the sons of&#8217; Benjamin have not been willing to hearken to the voice of their brethren, the sons of Israel; <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> and the sons of Benjamin are gathered out of the cities to Gibeah, to go out to battle with the sons of Israel. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> And the sons of Benjamin number themselves on that day; out of the cities `are&#8217; twenty and six thousand men drawing sword, apart from the inhabitants of Gibeah, `who&#8217; numbered themselves, seven hundred chosen men; <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> among all this people `are&#8217; seven hundred chosen men, bound of their right hand, each of these slinging with a stone at the hair, and he doth not err. <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> And the men of Israel numbered themselves, apart from Benjamin, four hundred thousand men, drawing sword, each of these a man of war. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> And they rise and go up to Beth-El, and ask of God, and the sons of Israel say, `Who doth go up for us at the commencement to battle with the sons of Benjamin?&#8217; and Jehovah saith, `Judah &#8212; at the commencement.&#8217; <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> And the sons of Israel rise in the morning, and encamp against Gibeah, <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> and the men of Israel go out to battle with Benjamin, and the men of Israel set themselves in array with them, `for&#8217; battle against Gibeah, <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> and the sons of Benjamin come out from Gibeah, and destroy in Israel on that day two and twenty thousand men &#8212; to the earth. <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> And the people, the men of Israel, strengthen themselves, and add to set the battle in array in the place where they arranged themselves on the first day. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> And the sons of Israel go up and weep before Jehovah till the evening, and ask of Jehovah, saying, `Do I add to draw nigh to battle with the sons of Benjamin, my brother?&#8217; And Jehovah saith, `Go up against him.&#8217; <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> And the sons of Israel draw near unto the sons of Benjamin on the second day, <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> and Benjamin cometh out to meet them from Gibeah on the second day, and destroy among the sons of Israel again eighteen thousand men &#8212; to the earth; all these are drawing sword. <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> And all the sons of Israel go up, even all the people, and come in to Beth-El, and weep, and sit there before Jehovah, and fast on that day till the evening, and cause to ascend burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before Jehovah. <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> And the sons of Israel ask of Jehovah, &#8212; and there `is&#8217; the ark of the covenant of God in those days, <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> and Phinehas son of Eleazar, son of Aaron, is standing before it in those days &#8212; saying, `Do I add again to go out to battle with the sons of Benjamin, my brother, or do I cease?&#8217; And Jehovah saith, `Go up, for to-morrow I give him into thy hand.&#8217; <\/br><strong>29<\/strong> And Israel setteth liers in wait against Gibeah, round about, <\/br><strong>30<\/strong> and the sons of Israel go up against the sons of Benjamin, on the third day, and arrange themselves against Gibeah, as time by time. <\/br><strong>31<\/strong> And the sons of Benjamin come out to meet the people; they have been drawn away out of the city, and begin to smite `some&#8217; of the people &#8212; wounded as time by time, in the highways (of which one is going up to Beth-El, and the other to Gibeah in the field), `are&#8217; about thirty men of Israel. <\/br><strong>32<\/strong> And the sons of Benjamin say, `They are smitten before us as at the beginning;&#8217; but the sons of Israel said, `Let us flee, and draw them away out of the city, unto the highways.&#8217; <\/br><strong>33<\/strong> And all the men of Israel have risen from their place, and arrange themselves at Baal-Tamar, and the ambush of Israel is coming forth out of its place, out of the meadow of Gibeah. <\/br><strong>34<\/strong> And they come in over against Gibeah &#8212; ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel &#8212; and the battle `is&#8217; grievous, and they have not known that the evil is striking against them. <\/br><strong>35<\/strong> And Jehovah smiteth Benjamin before Israel, and the sons of Israel destroy in Benjamin, on that day, twenty and five thousand, and a hundred men; all these `are&#8217; drawing sword. <\/br><strong>36<\/strong> And the sons of Benjamin see that they have been smitten &#8212; and the men of Israel give place to Benjamin, for they have trusted unto the ambush which they had set against Gibeah, <\/br><strong>37<\/strong> and the ambush have hasted, and push against Gibeah, and the ambush draweth itself out, and smiteth the whole of the city by the mouth of the sword. <\/br><strong>38<\/strong> And there was the appointed sign to the men of Israel with the ambush &#8212; their causing to go up a great volume of smoke from the city. <\/br><strong>39<\/strong> And the men of Israel turn in battle, and Benjamin hath begun to smite the wounded among the men of Israel, about thirty men, for they said, `Surely they are utterly smitten before us, as `at&#8217; the first battle; <\/br><strong>40<\/strong> and the volume hath begun to go up from the city &#8212; a pillar of smoke &#8212; and Benjamin turneth behind, and lo, gone up hath the perfection of the city toward the heavens. <\/br><strong>41<\/strong> And the men of Israel have turned, and the men of Benjamin are troubled, for they have seen that the evil hath stricken against them &#8212; <\/br><strong>42<\/strong> and they turn before the men of Israel unto the way of the wilderness, and the battle hath followed them; and those who `are&#8217; from the city are destroying them in their midst; <\/br><strong>43<\/strong> they have compassed the Benjamites &#8212; they have pursued them &#8212; with ease they have trodden them down till over-against Gibeah, at the sun-rising. <\/br><strong>44<\/strong> And there fall of Benjamin eighteen thousand men &#8212; the whole of these `are&#8217; men of valour; <\/br><strong>45<\/strong> and they turn and flee toward the wilderness, unto the rock of Rimmon; and they glean of them in the highways five thousand men, and follow after them unto Gidom, and smite of them two thousand men. <\/br><strong>46<\/strong> And all those falling of Benjamin are twenty and five thousand men drawing sword, on that day &#8212; the whole of these `are&#8217; men of valour; <\/br><strong>47<\/strong> and there turn and flee into the wilderness, unto the rock of Rimmon six hundred men, and they dwell in the rock Rimmon four months. <\/br><strong>48<\/strong> And the men of Israel have turned back unto the sons of Benjamin, and smite them by the mouth of the sword out of the city, &#8212; men unto cattle, unto all that is found; also all the cities which are found they have sent into fire. <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-4647651612525789\";\n    google_ad_slot = \"6844414800\";\n    google_ad_width = 320;\n
