In context
10 So the assembly sent thither twelve thousand men, of the sons of valour,—and commanded them, saying:—Go and smite the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead, with the edge of the sword, with the women, and the little ones.
11 And, this, is the thing that ye shall do,—Every male, and every woman that hath cohabited with man, shall ye devote to destruction.
12 And they found—of the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead—four hundred young women, virgins, who had not cohabited with man,—so they brought them into the camp, at Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
13 Then the whole assembly sent, and spake unto the sons of Benjamin, who were in the cliff Rimmon,—and proclaimed to them, peace.
14 So Benjamin returned at that time, and they gave them the women whom they had saved alive of the women of Jabesh-gilead,—but they found not for them [to suffice], even so.
15 Now, the assembly, had grieved for Benjamin,—because Yahweh had made a breach, in the tribes of Israel.
16 So then, the elders of the assembly said, What are we to do for them who remain, for wives,—for womankind, hath been destroyed out of Benjamin?
