Judges 20:12 CPDV

¹⁰  We shall select ten men out of one hundred from all the tribes of Israel, and one hundred out of one thousand, and one thousand out of ten thousand, so that they may transport supplies for the army, and so that we will be able to fight against Gibeah of Benjamin, and to repay it for its crime as it deserves.'

¹¹  And all of Israel convened against the city, like one man, with one mind and one counsel.

¹²  And they sent messengers to the entire tribe of Benjamin, who said: 'Why has so great a wickedness been found among you?

¹³  Deliver the men of Gibeah, who have perpetrated this deplorable act, so that they may die, and so that the evil may be taken away from Israel.' And they were not willing to listen to the command of their brothers, the sons of Israel.

¹⁴  Instead, out of all the cities that were their lot, they convened at Gibeah, so that they might bring them assistance, and so that they might contend against the entire people of Israel.
