21 and_the _man _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) he _had _sworn at_Miʦpāh to_say anyone from_him/it not he _will _give daughter _of_his to_Binyāmīn to/for_(a)_woman.

2 And_it _came the_people Bēyt- ^ʼēl and_they _lived there until the_evening to_(the)_face _of/in _front _of/before the_ʼElohīm and_they _lifted _up voice _of_their and_they _wept weeping great.

3 And_they _said why Oh_YHWH the _god _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) has _it _happened this_thing in_Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) to_be _missing the_day from_Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) a _tribe one.

4 And_he/it _was from_the_next _day and_they _rose _early the_people and_they _built there an _altar and_they _offered _up burnt _offerings and_peace _offerings.

5 and_ the _people _of _they _said of _Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) who is _the _one_who not he _went _up in_assembly from_all the _tribes _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) to YHWH if/because the_oath (the)_great it _was to_the_one_who not he _went _up to YHWH (the)_Miʦpāh to_say surely _(die) he _will _be _put _to _death.

6 And_ the _people _of _they _had _compassion of _Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) to Binyāmīn his/its_brother and_they _said it _has _been _cut _off the_day a _tribe one from_Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel).

7 What will _we _do to/for_them for_who]_remain for_wives and_we we _have _sworn by_YHWH to_not to _give to/for_them any_of_our _daughters to_wives.

8 And_they _said who is_the_one of_the _tribes _of of _Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) which not it _went _up to YHWH (the)_Miʦpāh and_BEHOLD/LO/SEE not he _had _come anyone to the_camp from_Yāⱱēsh/(Jabesh)- gilˊād to the_assembly.

9 And_it _was _mustered the_people and_BEHOLD/LO/SEE there_was_not there anyone of_the _inhabitants _of of Yāⱱēsh.

10 And_they _sent there the_congregation two _plus ten thousand man from_(the)_sons of _(the)_strength and_they _commanded them to_say go and_you(pl)_will _strike _down DOM the _inhabitants _of Yāⱱēsh to_the_mouth _of the_sword and_the_women and_the _little_one[s].

11 And_this is_the_thing which you(pl)_will _do every _of male and_all woman who _has_known lying _of a _male you(pl)_will _totally _destroy.

12 And_they _found of_the _inhabitants _of of Yāⱱēsh four hundred(s) young _woman virgin[s] who not she _had _known a _man to_lying _of a _male and_they _brought them to the_camp Shiloh which in_land of _Kənaˊan/(Canaan).

14 And_ Binyāmīn _it _returned at_time (the)_that and_they _gave to/for_them the_women whom they _had _preserved _alive from_the _women _of Yāⱱēsh and_not they _found to/for_them so.

15 And_the_people it _had _compassion to_Binyāmīn if/because YHWH he _had _made a _breach in_the _tribes _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel).

16 And_they _said the _elders _of the _congregation what will _we _do for_who]_remain for_wives if/because she _is _destroyed from_Binyāmīn woman.

17 And_they _said a _possession _of the_escaped _remnant belongs_to_Binyāmīn and_not a _tribe it _will _be _wiped _out from_Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel).

18 And_we not we _are _able to_give to/for_them wives any_of_our _daughters if/because the _people _of they _had _sworn of _Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) to_say be_cursed a _wife one _who_gives to_Binyāmīn.

19 and_they _said HERE the _festival _of YHWH is_in_Shiloh from_days to_days which is_from_northward of_Bēyt- ^ʼēl the _rising _of_towards of_the _sun of_the_highway which_goes_up from_Bēyt- ^ʼēl to_Shəkem and_from_the_Negeⱱ to_Ləⱱōʼnah.

20 And_they _commanded[fn][fn] DOM the _descendants _of Binyāmīn to_say go and_you(pl)_will _lie _in _wait in_vineyards.

21 And_you(pl)_will _see and_BEHOLD/LO/SEE if they _will _come _out the _daughters _of Shiloh to_dance with_dancing(s) and_you(pl)_will _go _out from the_vineyards and_you(pl)_will _seize to/for_you(pl) each _man his/its_wife/woman from_the _daughters _of Shiloh and_you(pl)_will _go the _land _of Binyāmīn.

22 And_it _was if/because fathers _of_their they _will _come or brothers _of_their to_make _a _complaint[fn] to_us and_we _will _say to_them show_favour _for _us _to them if/because not we _took each _man his/its_wife/woman in_battle if/because not you(pl) you(pl)_gave_them to/for_them about_time you(pl)_will _be _guilty.

23 and_they _did thus the _descendants _of Binyāmīn and_they _carried _off wives to_number _of_their from the_dancers whom they _seized and_they _went and_they _returned to inheritance _of_their and_they _rebuilt DOM the_cities and_they _lived in_them.

24 And_they _dispersed from_there the _people _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) at_time (the) each _man to_tribe _of_his and_to_clan _of_his and_they _went _out from_there each _man to_inheritance _of_his.

25 In _the_days the_those there_was_not a _king in_Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) each _man the_right in_his _own _of_eyes he _will _do.
